"The Ice Storm, Big Gust, And You"

Well, I swear that you came in the form of rain
That had frozen somewhere along it's way through the evening sky
So the trees got tired and laid on the ground
I swear you marched in like big gusts of wind
Oh, cutting through our clothes
Such an easy attempt to convince us
There is no reason we should be outside

"I Always Knew"

I've lived my life inside daydream lies
Imaginary friends that always knew one day I'd leave for good
I'll give away this girl who tried to make you fall i love
I'll give her to you so keep her close to you
So you won't forget about oh how she loved you
So long ago, once upon a time
Now she has grown up, and you can't take it back

"A Perfect Fit"

One heart attack and you stumble lost into
A light you make so brightly false
And I watch as blood spills down your arm
And makes it's way to me
So here I stand puddle under me
Trying to believe you're nothing like you seem
I just don't know
And by the kitchen sink you talked to me
Saying, "I don't remember"

Shake It Out"

The sun has passed from overhead
Let the night come in, let the night walk through your door
For every sleep spent in our beds
We will push our feet so hard the room will tear
In a carnival of smiles our faces glow
Oh the dark can make us feel so bold
There's no cold can make us want to stay at home
Every doubt in turn explodes

"Reckless"

Oh reckless, a boy wonder, so quiet, nose broken
Oh, you're standing there, look tired as your singing
And you're on fire, they're throwing punches
So backwards the landscape you thought you knew, it starts unwinding
Now you're jumping through their hoops
You're just trying to dodge all their questions
They're shooting bullets

"Let It Rain"

"Get into the groove boy you've got to prove your love to me"
Played on the radio as we drove down south to see our families
You were lying there in the passenger chair sound asleep
I could recall a time when evenings were bright and thick with love
And all the city streets and their lights they were so mysterious

"You And I Misbehaving"

Oh Darci, Darci don't look so sad
Don't let the daytime get you down
Because we will be wild like children once the black has veiled this sky
No pushing buttons, no telling lies
No pointed fingers trying to keep you quiet
Just you and I misbehaving
Oh trying our best to feel alive

"Bessa"

Morning came and I tried not to notice
It was time for you to move along
The minutes fell like petal all around us
Like a goodbye kiss when goodbye felt so wrong
So you better get going
You better move along now
You better run off then and make yourself scarce
These few days I have decided to be lazy
They don't move or seem to end at all

"Nights Of The Living Dead"

Oh the high school kids they're all f**ked up
Touching each other, oh my god
Yeah and forty ounces was never enough
We want to pass out in your yard
We want to pass out
Dressing in drag your best friend's clothes
While boys kissed boys in hotel rooms
Oh and just when we thought we were no longer lost
They kicked us out into the dirty streets of Atlanta

"Fell Down The Stairs"

You fell down the stairs into my arms
And swiftly ran the other way
And I heard the steady swell of applause
For two drunk kids trying to figure out which way was home
They got lost as they were taking off each other's clothes
They realized there was a hole in the boat
And with no lifesaver you try your best to float
