“Lonely but comforting; music for washing the dishes on your own now that the last party guests have trailed out the door, for taking the late afternoon Greyhound home after the wedding, for the quiet ache of routine.”

Track Name: Lonely Life
baby baby
don't say maybe
it's gonna be a lonely night
hearts were spoken
hearts were broken
it's gonna be a lonely night
it's gonna be a lonely night

lover lover
gone for another
i'm alone
you left me right here
nights spent weeping
days spent sleeping
it's gonna be a lonely year
it's gonna be a lonely year

mother mother
where are my brothers
i'm alone
there's no one near
dreams are shattered
things aren't right
it's gonna be a lonely life
it's gonna be a lonely life
Track Name: Bullshit Love
bullshit
swimming oceans of bullshit love
and i'm tired
of looking for the shore

bullshit
swimming oceans of bullshit love
and why
won't she call?

strangers
yeah i guess we're just strangers
and one night
means nothing at all

strangers
yeah i guess we're just strangers
and why
won't she call?
Track Name: Feeling Small
I wish you'd come over
i'd let you in
im so tired of being friends
im so tired of being friends

moving forward
then it all just stops
i'm so tired of feeling lost
i'm so tired of feeling lost

my head is broken
and my heart is cold
i'm so tired of feeling old
i'm so tired of feeling old

gotta find a new way
to get more
i'm so tired of being poor
i'm so tired of being poor

it's been four years
staring at a wall
i'm so tired of feeling small
i'm so tired of feeling small
Track Name: Things That I'm Not
growing is knowing
and knowing is thinking
thinking about the things that I've got

i'm eating
i'm sleeping
i'm no longer dreaming
dreaming about the things that i'm not

maybe you'll see me
but you won't believe me
time's moving on like i'm gone
and giving is living
but living is forgiving
forgiving all the things that went wrong

hoping is coping
and coping is swimming
swimming with your feet made of rocks

i'm eating
i'm sleeping
i'm no longer dreaming
dreaming about the things that i'm not

dreaming about the things that i'm not
dreaming about the things that i'm not
Track Name: Austin
Austin
no matter where you are
know dear
now you're gone too far

know dear
now I'm feeling dead
my heart and my head
i'm feeling dead

pull the lamp shades
the ships are in
ships are in
where to begin?

pull the lamp shades
the ships are in
ships are in
where to begin?

all my life
i'd been looking for you
looking for you
now what to do?

all my love
i'd been looking for you
looking for you
now what to do?
Track Name: Another Lover
looking for another lover
someone to replace another
broken hope

looking for someone to save me
accept me how my mother raised me
and don't let go

all I know
is don't you get close
it's all I know
don't you get close
it's all I know

searching for all the reasons
suddenly she changed her feelings
and i'm not sure

looking for someone to notice
things are going to change
I promise
i'll be alright

all I know
is don't you get close
it's all I know
don't you get close
it's all I know
don't you get close

it's all I know
Track Name: No Longer Trying
Oh
All the signs
i'm holding on
but i'm not trying

and you
loved me again
i hope some day
we can be friend's

Oh
All the signs
i'm waiting
for a different life

waiting
until things are right

and i'm holding on
but i'm not trying

holding on
but i'm not trying
Track Name: Come and Go
open the door
let the souls in
recalling the face
and the places
i've been

i'm not
only yours
i'm so much more
if you would afford

head down
to the deep
i'm caught in a dream
of falsified dreams

oohh ooh ooh

sometimes
when we lie
our feelings die
on the inside

and some things
come and go
while others grow
for a while.

oohh ooh ooh
