All My Mistakes

In the summer we were together
Flying high under lit up skies
Like a firework were flying, high into the night
Magnesium strips, yellow skies
Yeah We were reckless in love
And we were enough
To right the shipwrecked wrong
Like Romeo and Juliet
We both know this won’t last too long
I wanna make all my mistakes with you
I wanna be lost in whatever you do
I wanna be your biggest mistake, your hardest heartbreak
And the best thing you ever knew
In the winter we fell apart
Like melting snowman it got to hot
ran so fast i thought we were flying high into the sky
Turns out we were in a tail spin
Yeah We were reckless in love
And we were enough
To right the shipwrecked wrong
Like Romeo and Juliet
We both know this won’t last too long
I wanna make all my mistakes with you
I wanna be lost in whatever you do
I wanna be your biggest mistake, your hardest heartbreak
And the best thing you ever knew
I wanna make all my mistakes with you
I wanna be lost in whatever you do
I wanna be your biggest mistake, your hardest heartbreak
And the best thing you ever knew
I wanna make all my mistakes with you
I wanna be lost in whatever you do
I wanna be your biggest mistake, your hardest heartbreak
And the best thing you ever knew
Oh I god damn knew

Burn Out Again

Do you see me lying there in the middle of a backyard and I say I'm right here right there?
when you walk in your suede shoes and I wonder if you'll back out if I asked if you sing me the blues you sing me the blues
Have you ever noticed sad songs sound so happy when we’re sad
Like someone wrote a soundtrack to how we feel like in bed
And rainy days bring clouds of thought and maybe raindrops
I understand
I've been picking dandelions in Meadows of weeds
The wind picks up and spreads my thoughts we're planting little seeds
I've been blowing wishes on sky's full of airplanes
I don't want to see my wishes burn out again
spaced-out next to you in the middle of the back room and we sit and watch the fans move, the airstream through
And I wander in my mind I wonder if we think alike
The paths in which our brains move is it the same for you?
Have you ever notice sad song sound so happy when we're sad
Like someone wrote the soundtrack to how we feel like in bed
Or rainy days bring clouds of thought or maybe raindrops
I understand
I’ve been picking dandelions in Meadows full of weeds
The wind picks up and spreads my thoughts we're planting little seeds
I've been blowing wishes on sky's full of airplanes
I don't want to see my wishes burn out again

I still remember all the drinks she made for us back then
I said could I steal this seat
You said practice independence
And I studied hard to graduate
For the test that you had planned
You had asked me something witty
I said let's get up and dance
We sing
Na na na na na na na na
Na na na na naaaaaaaahhhhh
And the whole bar started to Dancing sing
as you were dancing in front of me
all I wanted to do was see you in
in the morning after
We stayed out
And I stole a dance
And you gave me a kiss
It was true romance but
All I wanted to do was see you in
In the morning after
So we sat back down to celebrate the day's mundane events
You had talked about your work
And I had talked about my band
And how we're starting up
But soon we'll be on every newsstand
You had talked about your dad and how hey loved those 70s bands
And we sang
Na na na na na na na na
Na na na na naaaaaaaahhhhh
And the whole bar started to dance and sing
And you were sitting in front of my and all I wanted to do was see you in
In the morning after
We stayed out late
And I stole a glance
And you still kissed me
It was true romance
But all I wanted to do was see you in
In the morning after
So that night we kept on celebrating to the break of dawn
When you had to go to work
And Pretty soon you'd be just gone
So I asked if I'd see her around this part of town
She said you never know my friend
The street and names get to change around
And I never did see her
But my I still have songs to sing
Whenever I get low
I go to the bar and drink along
And I sing
Na na na na na na na na
Na na na na naaaaaaaahhhhh
And the whole bar started to dance and sing
And you were sitting in front of my and all I wanted to do was see you in
In the morning after
We stayed out late
And I stole a glance
And you still kissed me
It was true romance
But all I wanted to do was see you in
In the morning after

Susan calls me only yesterday,
to ask me how things were going.
we talked about Jesus and how he saves,
and how they keep grownin’,
and after all this time,
I’m still sitten’ here tellin’ lies,
after all this time,
I’m caught in the throws of my life,
cause who am I to be,
but someone I’m not,
I’m the person you want to be,
I got in the car the other day,
just to see how far I could go,
the Dj jokes “how your memories fade”
and how “ we all seem to grow old”
and after all this time,
I’m still sittin’ here tellin’ lies,
after all this time,
I’m caught in the throws of my life,
who am I to be,
but someone I’m not,
I’m the person you want to be,
who am I to be,
but someone I’m not,
I’m the person you want to be,
And I haven’t talked to Jesus
Since two years ago
Back when daddy left mom all alone
And I go to the bar
And I drink alone
Till it ain’t safe for me to drive home
I talked to my mom the other day
cause she loves me no matter my pain
she told me “son I'm proud to say,
I’m your mom and you’re doing okay”
And that’s all I need
to hear her say.

Many long nights
In endless discord,
many hard fights,
with no allies in store,
got this feeling I’m falling with no one else around,
are my wings made of wax and I’m falling,
many long nights in anxious assort,
many hards fights
with my pride and my soul,
got this feeling I’m falling with no one else around,
are my wings made of wax and I’m falling
many long nights,
wasted running away,
many hard fights,
against my fears and mistakes,
got this feeling I’m falling, with no one else around,
are my wings made of wax and I’m falling
are my wings made of wax and I’m falling

Ship in a Bottle

Dear Evelyn write to me,
Our future seems bright
Star-studded dreams.
Dear Evelyn talk to me,
your whispers insight
storms inside me.
Looking back, reaching out,
My mind it wanders,
Wondering how we began,
Looking back, reaching out,
My mind it wanders,
Wondering how we began,
Like a moment trapped in time,
A ship in a bottle,
Awaits,
a reason to arrive.
You'll sleep through the passing tide,
And sit by the bottle,
And wait,
for a journey to arrive.
Dear Evelyn don't you see,
3 years have passed,
I've grown up at sea,
Dear Evelyn understand,
I countdown days,
With grains of sand,
Looking back, reaching out,
My mind it wanders,
Wondering how we began
Looking back, reaching out,
My mind it wanders,
If you’re shipwrecked inside?
Like a moment trapped in time,
A ship in a bottle,
Awaits,
a reason to arrive,
You'll sleep through the passing tide,
And sit by the bottle,
And wait,
for a journey to arrive,
Dear Evelyn Write to me
Why don’t you listen to me
Dear Evelyn write to me,
I've sailed through thoughts,
salt-crusted dreams,
And dear Evelyn don't you see,
Time seems to pass,
It’s ordained
Certainly

Sleep well my darling
I'll see you in dreamland
Where sunsets on blades of grass
And the moon rises over pastures past
Cause everyone and everywhere I’d rather be with
And everyone and everywhere I’d rather be with
And everyone and everywhere I’d rather be with you
Sleep well my darling
As you float towards your horizon
If you ever need me to fall asleep
Just look to the stars and I’ll serenade you sweet
Cause everyone and everywhere I’d rather be with
And everyone and everywhere I’d rather be with
And everyone and everywhere I’d rather be with you
Sleep well my darling
Close your eyes for tonight
The sun is west it’s time for us to rest
And well float away to dreamland
Cause everyone and everywhere I’d rather be with
And everyone and everywhere I’d rather be with
And everyone and everywhere I’d rather be with you

Ballad at Midnight
02:36

It’s the middle of the night
another endless fight
and I'm listening to fireflies
sing there ballad smooth
and I'm sleepy like a dog
I've got a pain like a knife in my eye
so I go and sit outside
write a song to pass the mood
and even if you you never hear this
I want you to know that these words are true
it's three little words
I Love You
It's a sleepless night
watching the stars pass by
and I'm listening to fireflies
sing there ballad smooth
They’re singing I Love You (X4)
