Earn it in anything, Just get in, Lose initially before you can win, Slowest gallow fall, For us one and all, Hastily prepared in a shopping mall, And the crashing sound, Of my hometown's, Emerald crown coming down, Highway robbery, With a crooked smile, Certain squalor, For a chance at style, And the online friends, You fervently crave, Build their happy home on top of your grave, And the falling down, Of my hometown's, Forgotten clown coming down, And the falling down, Of my hometown's, Forgotten clown coming down, And the crashing sound, Of my hometown's, Emerald crown on the ground

Swim in melted silk shadows as you wind me up, Shake your humble cartoons in a backwards cup, And when I say my share, You glare from here to there, Down balaclava way, In whipping can of air, Concerned but without care, Is that the street hear say? I say it's all too much, you say it's not enough, Never take right on red, Never take left on green, You don't know what I mean, I'm never gonna let you go, Always see up with dread, Always bereft or mean, You don't know what I green, I'm never gonna let you go, We are every raindrop crashing onto your umbrella, And though it shields them now, We'll make it through somehow, Insert your lyrics here, I'm never gonna let you go, Standing on the edge, I take a step back but I'm falling, Seething in bitter postcards as I write you down, Blurred mark on mark looking for a noun, And now we'll all express with notes so loud, (solo) I say it's all too much, you say it's not enough, Never take right on red, Never take left on green, You don't know what I mean, I'm never gonna let you go, Always see up with dread, Always bereft or mean, You don't know what I green, I'm never gonna let you go, We are every raindrop crashing onto your umbrella, And though it shields them now, We'll make it through somehow, Insert your lyrics here, I'm never gonna let you go I say it's all too much, I say it's all too much I say it's all too much, you say it's not enough

Tangerine colored wallpaper, In the den of my thoughts, Lavender scented candles, Here in the place love forgot, When you're lonely, I feel lonely too, When you're opaque, I'll be clear for you, When you're lost then, I'll know what to do, When you're lonely, Paint shadows forever, Canvas eyes pierce me now, Lets be weird together, Love through our sorrows somehow, When you're lonely, I feel lonely too, When the world's cold, I'll be warm for you, When you feel left, I'm right there for you, When you're lonely When you're lonely, I feel lonely too, When you're opaque, I'll be clear for you, When you're lost then, I'll know what to do, When you're lonely

Wasted with Uncle Onion, Says I'm out of luck, Sends me in the cold, To scrape biscuits off his truck, I live up in the dumps, Banana, banana bread, Barista with a coffee, Gaves me nothing but a bean, My splendor in a coffin, Dresses only in green, I live up in the dumps, Chicken noodle soup, (solo) I live up in the dumps, banana, banana bread, Bathing in the gap tooth, Where my right foot ends, Shaving all my frisbees, Don't ask for my rank again, I live up in the dumps, Banana, banana bread, Chicken, noodle soup, I live up in the dumps
5.
How will I see the world, When the world I know has passed, Standing in tomorrow's theatre, With all my roles recast, Awake, awake from your home, Tears for the place you can't own And how will I see the world, When those I know have passed, Holding on to echoed phrases, Though I know they cannot last, The born do what they must do, But please, please say I love you And how will the world see me, When shadows grow to dusk, A forest of warmth, To a desert of distrust, Tomorrow the streets swell at noon, By morning, I'll be home soon
6.
I don't see the world like you think I do, I've seen every shade wrapped in blue, You're the lens that my world sees through, I see beauty because of you, Now that you know, Now that you know, Now that you know, You're my rose colored glasses (x2) Was I blind before, could I really see? Five senses, but they felt like three, You're the filter in front of me, Now all the world seems so lovely, Now that you know, Now that you know, Now that you know, You're my rose colored glasses (x2) (solo) Now that you know, Now that you know, Now that you know, You're my rose colored glasses (repeat)
7.
On the shores of every land, I'll turn your stones to sand, And at the very least, You're the ghost at every feast This crescent moon, pulls your tides (x2) The vistas you will save, Ride the crest of every wave, And this is the only thing you'll hear This crescent moon, pulls your tides (x2) And at the very least, You're the ghost at every feast, On the shores of every land, I'll turn your stones to sand This crescent moon (x3) Pulls your tides
8.
Will I feel of now then, as I feel of then now? Distract your tired thoughts distressed, And carry on somehow, Condense your life to phrase in wisdom sage, The author's changing before the ink dries on the page, Nodus tollens, turn the page, For every age, A thousand brittle voices crying out, "where are you now, now, now?" Tell us of '95 or 2002, Your life compressed into a number, what do those numbers mean to you? I've lost the plot, I've lost my place to be, The colors fade, a cover judged, and that's the book closed on me Nodus tollens, turn the age, on every page, A thousand empty faces looking back, "where are you now, now, now?" Nodus tollens, turn the page, For every age, A thousand different pages tearing out, "where are you now, now, now?"

When all the fruits of your labor, Spoil on the tree, To know the sweet that you savor, Tastes of ashes to me, (Chill), let your mind go, (Chill), of all that you think you know, (Chill), let the wind blow, (Chill) Red exit sign glow, Throughout your day, It doesn't push you through, it doesn't push you away, (Chill), let your mind go, (Chill), of all that you think you know, (Chill), let the wind blow, (Chill) Don't fall too far, Where you want to be is not so far from where you are, So take a number now, And fall in line, And when your number's up, Emergency sign (Chill), let your mind go, (Chill), of all that you think you know, (Chill), let the wind blow, (Chill) Let your mind go, (Chill), of all that you think you know, (Chill), let the wind blow, (Chill)
