Be Someone

If its a coffee shop you want, I know a few

If its a story that you need, I’ve got one or two

Caught in this feeling of wanting to be someone with you


If its a record that you want, I know the one

And there’s a song that stole your heart every time it spun 

Caught in this feeling of wanting to be someone with you


Every time I pass by your old street

And the memories all come rushing back to me

All the things we did

Your silhouette against the wall

As you were dancing through the living room


Hung up on this feeling of wanting to be someone for you


Make It Up To You

Don’t you worry, don’t you cry

I’ll be who you want for a while

So don’t you worry, don’t you cry

It’s alright 

Face of winter, eyes of sundown 

Ready to leave the ground

Distant buildings through the mist,

One last kiss, one more kiss 


She said ‘Won’t you make it up to me?

When we fly into the city’

I’ve been saving up for weeks

The color filling up her cheeks


Call a taxi from the edge of town 

The heavy rain coming down 

Tonight seems forever young 

She bites her tongue 


Leather booths, woozy heads

Smell of French cigarettes

She says we’ve jumped into things 

And the fool inside my heart sings 


Can’t I make it up to you?

From head down to my shoe 

I miss waking up to you 

God knows that my love is true


Came all this way and now I’m all alone in the smoke from all the passers by

Vacant window, bottle left half full but I’m fine


Can’t I make it up to you?

From head down to my shoe

I miss waking up to you

You’re strolling down the avenue


God knows that my love is true

God knows that my love is true

God knows that my love is true

God knows that my love is true


On Hold

Locked myself in my room for a few weeks

The world was turning bleak

The sun kills all but maybe it’s the cure

Do we know all this for sure?

It was just the other day we had not one care

No one was prepared

Make our way to our jobs but everybody’s acting so removed

Find your call when all calls are being put on hold

And you are waiting by the phone

I miss you and my brother and my family too

I hope they’re pulling through

Once Belonged (feat. Shanshala)

They told me how to act and how to be

I kept my will in my sleeve

And though some things that I have said were wrong

You know I meant no harm

A forest full of sighs (forest)

In my window (window)

I never want to see the inside (sun again)

All you need is inside of your mind (Only want to be inside of your mind)

That’s just how I see it now

Thoughts that (Thoughts that) once belonged

They came and (Came and) went like a moth to a flame (On paper machete, for every age)

And though the blood was dry, they bled the same

I’ll never reach that place

In spite of all the lies, we’ve been deceived

Embrace your self esteem

Now that you have been away

Thoughts that (Thoughts that) once belonged

They came and (Came and) went like a moth to a flame (On paper machete, just to escape)

A ladder (Been there) to the top of the hole that (Known you) I dug myself in (On beach parade)

I gotta climb back up (For every day)

Where does the truth end in this spiel?

Where does the fiction start?

Say we’re not to blame but I don’t see it that way

Sad thing is we say we don’t care

Thoughts that once belonged, they came like a moth

They came like a moth

A willow on the creek,

A sentence out of place, or out of reach

If Fate is Kind

Darling, if I am to give my best I need you to understand

And one day, I will be your man

My love, don’t let it bring you down

Although I’m not around, some day we’ll be holding hands

I will bring the band, and we will play a song about you

And the words are true

If fate is kind, if fate is kind

Darling, I doubt they will understand

I’ll show them just who I am

And this one, this one is for you

I will bring the band, and we will play a song about you

And the words are true

If fate is kind, if fate is kind

I try to laugh it off, I can’t

They won’t break my spirits

I don’t care

Nothing Will Change

The only way out is through when you fall behind

The doctor says take your meds, they’ll get you through the night

Catch your breath, and the arms of the trees will unfold, unfold

No safe bet when you choose to forget

Nothing will change who you are

Every night, you would have become your enemy

Time reveals all the things that you have yet to see

Take a pause, find your way, all is not lost

Lie awake pondering the bridge you could’ve crossed

Catch your breath and the arms of the trees will unfold, unfold

No safe bet when you choose to forget

Nothing will change who you are

Catch your breath and the arms of the trees will unfold, unfold

No safe bet when you choose to forget

Nothing will change who you are

Outshining all of the stars

Nothing will change who you are

In the Grand Scheme

No scream, or sound of shouting guns in the yard

Run away, everything behind you

Somehow, I’d rather be the dust on the road,

Than live a life without any feeling

Even the ones who look fine, they have their scars

Somewhere, deep inside

Shrouded in dreams,

You will find peace of mind In the grand scheme

There is a darkness all around this town,

And a fever, but I will hold your hand

One name to welcome everyone you meet

And an old one reminds you of your past

Even the ones who look fine, they have their scars

Somewhere, deep inside

Shrouded in dreams,

You will find peace of mind in the grand scheme

Restless, you are the sea

And they can’t see the damage

When moonlight puts up a fight

Different Sides

I wake up and start to think of you

Look out and admire the trees in full bloom

There’s no time for selfishness tonight

Traffic stuck along the bridge, we’re alright

Everybody knows I’m a thousand miles away

Picture all of the times that we took those scenic drives

Saw your different sides, I will make you mine

Never thought I’d see this place again

It’s exactly as it was back then

Strawberries in the afternoon

Take my guitar and I play out of tune

Everybody knows I’m a thousand miles away

All the days we spent, they linger in my head

Picture all of the times that we took those scenic drives

Saw your different sides, I will make you mine

Picture all of the times that we took those scenic drives

Saw your different sides, I will make you mine

Picture all of the times that we took those scenic drives

Saw your different sides, I will make you mine

Picture all of the times that we took those scenic drives

Saw your different sides, I will make you mine

Saw your different sides, I will make you mine
