Woke up from Another sleepless night I swear One of these days I’m gonna get it right I'll go to sleep when the sun goes down Instead of when the birds are drowning out My thoughts Lets get some coffee I'm still feeling kinda groggy Feel like i Slept in too long again But really it's only A quarter after ten (And i'll have to go through it all again)
2.	Ghost 02:58	lyrics	buy track
I woke up in a house that's not home Somewhere in a city i don't know All my friends, think they left Now i'm waiting for a text back In a house that's not home I think you woke up in a place that you know well Surrounded by familiar faces and that one smile You went back to your hometown The one you swore that you'd move out Once we made our house a home Now, somehow When you're not around I can feel your ghost somehow So i hope that you're a friend so please take me by the hand And lead me to a house that feels like home I woke up at somebody else's place Another problem i don't wanna face Drape these sheets over my head And i'll hide away instead Become a ghost in your bed Now, somehow When you're not around I can feel your ghost somehow So i hope that you're a friend so please take me by the hand And lead me to a house that feels like home I'm tired and i want to go home Instead of haunting a city i don't know Got your ghost in my head I'm still waiting for that text back Lead me to that house that feels like home
3.	Who am I to say? (live) 04:21	lyrics	buy track
I just remembered something small, i didnt even think it mattered Put em on a shelf something in itself that's rather careless Sometimes i can't help myself Overstack that shelf Till it comes down Books with overflowing pages Riddled with blank spaces Just remembered something big can't believe i didn't write it down If i had followed through, years ago, i could have gotten out of this town Maybe i should make myself Reorganize the shelf Cuz it looks like it won't hold up much longer Don't just pile up all my shit And hope to get away with it Should i give myself some space Won't these words all go to waste Should i give myself some room Or will it just pile up too soon again Some things cannot be replaced Some things shouldn't be erased But who am i to say Just remembered something odd Or perhaps it's something i've imagined Dropped my memories in a pond Cuz i wasnt really fond of what happened Sometimes i can't stop myself from Tearing down that shelf and Throwing everything away Now i'm staring at an empty shelf Couldn't help myself Should i give myself some space Won't these words all go to waste Should i give myself some room Or will it just pile up too soon again Some things cannot be replaced Some things shouldn't be erased But who am i to say should i give myself some space Won't these words all go to waste Should i give myself some room Or will it just pile up too soon again All these volumes of my life On this tiny shelf inside And i know i can't get it right
4.	Lemons 01:08	lyrics	buy track
This never ending ball of yarn Is all i know right now So the only thing that i can do is Work my way to the end somehow So if this is what i get right now I'll make the best of it Cuz when life gives you lemons but lemons are yarn i'll make the best sweater lemons can knit
5.	Bubbles 03:10	lyrics	buy track
She blew bubbles Had no troubles Put up a show in the living room Went outside with Nothing to hide And her birthday couldn't be too soon She was running Spring was coming But she wasnt allowed to take off her coat So her mom said That she should just pretend It a magical garment keeping you afloat So she tried To take flight Every time she went outside And nobody burst her bubbles that day And she just watched them float away She was singing Just pretending That the couch was the stage and her dolls the crowd She had made it And in that moment she knew it She knew what she was gonna build her bubble around So then she sang About everything Even if no one wanted to listen And nobody burst her bubbles that day And she just watched them float away I still sing About everything But i'm afraid that noone wants to listen So nobody burst my bubble today Just wanna watch them float away
6.	Chalk 03:27	lyrics	buy track
These days i find it hard to communicate what i want to say to you Ill write away but i cannot find the means to get through to you It's so much harder than it seems To make ends meet But i think i found a way To paint a picture of what i wanna say I'll write the words on the street So big you can see them from space I'll draw a picture of your face So everyone can see who you are This time i'll work with chalk So next time you walk On the street and all over me you'll see It's not just my hands that are dirty Hmm hmm Ok look I know i wasn't perfect either Sue me i am a believer And i figured you were god But now i see that believin’ isn't freeing And it blurs the lines of what's real and what's not I could wait for paint to dry But honestly i don't really see why Cuz kids don't have patience you made me complaisant So now I'll write the words on the street So big you can see them from space I'll draw a picture of your face So everyone can see who you are This time i'll work with chalk So next time you walk On the street and all over me you'll see It's not just my hands that are dirty Hmm hmm Ill dust off my hands And i'll just pretend That nothing really happened Cuz the rain will wash it all away I think it's loud and clear That next time you walk here You'll see what it's like to be looked down on by me The truth will set you free Hmm
7.	I miss the outside world (acoustic) 03:59	lyrics	buy track
I miss the outside world Before everything got turned Around so fast So rash And now i cant keep track I miss the outside world Watching everything unfold In real time with real People by my side Cuz now im stuck Alone inside And i wish you would rewrite the script To something with more action in it Cuz these four walls are boring me to death And i wish you would rewrite the script To something with more romance in it Cuz together this wouldn't be so bad Just let me out Let me go outside I miss getting out of my head And to get away instead Of not getting out at all Waiting for someone else to make the call And i wish you would rewrite the script To something with more action in it Cuz these four walls are boring me to death And i wish you would rewrite the script To something with more romance in it Cuz together this wouldn't be so bad Just let me out Let me go outside Cuz there's nowhere left to hide From my mind
8.	Could You Miss Me For A Moment? 01:44	lyrics	buy track
Could you miss me for a moment? I know you're busy not thinking of me Now i'm left here awful lonely Thinking bout you not thinking bout me I count all the thoughts in my head that i've had about you today And i know you're not thinking of me And that's okay Could you miss me for a moment I'm not complaining i am just waiting for You to text me when you're home and And for you to tell me that you thought about me all day And i know that you're on your way home now occupied somehow but hey I just hope you didn't forget about me
9.	Neverland 03:57	lyrics	buy track
I figured out how it would end Before it even started And it turns out i was right I was waiting for you to come through To save me from my mind And end these lonely nights And sure enough there you were Sitting in my windowsill And from then on everything was a blur And i'm sure that we had the time of our lives But as soon as i shut my eyes You'd be gone for sure I don't want to fall asleep Cuz i know that you'll just leave And this night should never end I never want to land I count the days till you come back Slowly losing track Of all the things i need to do And you're not even here yet but i'm sad you have to go back to Others that need you I don't want to fall asleep Cuz i know that you'll just leave And this night should never end I never want to land I can't wake up from this dream That you're flying home with me I wish you would understand How much i wish we'd never land How much i wish we'd never land
