Everything's Fine

It's Christmas morning
It's the Fourth Of July
It's New Years Eve
Which is why
We don't have to worry
About the small things anymore
In the morning when the sun comes up I'll know
Everything's fine
We don't have to worry
About the small things anymore
Everything's fine
It's not a problem
When things go whizzing by
It's when things slow down
We see how we live
And how we'd like to be

Waltz of Debris

You are growing distant
This I can see
Where your smile used to be
Yeah, you've changed
I think you've changed
I think I've stayed the same
But I am growing desperate
Pathetic, I know
I can see what you're doing to me
But I won't leave
So do your worst
'Cause I wil try to keep it
Yes, I will try to make it stay
You are not a monster
That's the worst part
I know you're still the same man that I
That I loved
Who's had a change of heart
But this is getting harder
Than it should be
It's so easy to see that your love
Is elsewhere
I know that it's gone but I'm still here
I'm fighting
Yes, I will try to keep it
Yes, I will try to make it stay
Yes, I will try to fix it
Yes, I will try to make it stay
Through the smoke and debris
I can still see a tree that can bear fruit
As I scratch at the leaves
Searching for a single sign of truth
As you sit at the peak
You watch me scream
"What do you want from me?"
Maybe you're a monster
Maybe you don't care
You still have your perfect world
I'm just not there
But I will try to keep it
Yes, I will try to make it stay
Yes, I will try to fix it
And I will try to make it stay

Evens & Odds

She is a part of an older world
Where guys held the doors and the women wore pearls
And there in the mirror, she sees all the curls
That were in her hair but are no longer there
She sits on the bridge that used to be hers
It felt like a gift, now it feels like a curse
She lost some old pictures in her old purse
And it's killing her
And then she sees his face
Or one that looks like it, it's hard to explain
It's impossible
But sometimes she tries, and sometimes she sleeps
She sits on the bridge that used to be hers
It felt like a gift, now it feels like a curse
She lost some old pictures in her old purse
And it's killing her
Black and white, and everything in between
Evens and odds and everything we have seen
Shouldn't life be this simple?
Couldn't life be this simple?
We know life's never simple

Keep It Down

I'm finding brand new ways to fall
I'm finding I don't know who to call
I'm loud and lonely now
Stuck inside; I'm new here in this town
It's nice here, here in the lost and found
I'll try to keep it down, down, down
I'm loud and lonely now
Stuck inside; I'm new here in this town
And I've been cold before
But I'm terrified now that winter's at my door

When he came to visit
He came to disapprove
How he never was the one
That I'd run home to
But he came to visit
And he stayed for the week
And I really didn't mind
That he came for you
Everything, all of the time, all at once
All of this you left for me
And everything, all of the time, all at once
If I could give it back
Everything, all of the time, all at once
All of this you left for me
And everything, all of the time, all at once
If I could give it back
I would
And mom sang at my wedding
Last June in the sun
Yeah, and everybody there knew we were missing one
And no words should be wasted
We've had several years
And still everything about you lingers here
Everything, all of the time, all at once
All of this you left for me
And everything, all of the time, all at once
If I could give it back
Everything, all of the time, all at once
All of this you left for me
And everything, all of the time, all at once
If I could give it back
I would
I know I'm not half the man I want to be for you

Call you up
Tell you how the plans have changed
And all the fun I'm having
I messed up
Sometimes I think nothing's changed
But even I know that's not true
A different hue
A devil's red against a wall
A silhouette cut out crisp and clean
A different view
The ignorance seems perfect now
I can't have it back, I can't turn this off
My voice gets smaller and smaller
Every time I think of you
Call you up
Tell you how the plans have changed
And all the fun I'm having
This is true
These things I did, these words I said
Take them in your arms,
make me who you want me to be
My voice gets smaller and smaller
Every time I think of you
