One for Me

Verse 1:
You were living upstairs in a room right down the hallway
I didn't wanna mess things up so I
Had to do it my way
50 first dates
Stayin up late
It was one after another
I thought we just might
Doing it right
It was the perfect summer
Prechorus:
And these feelings they surround me
Oh they drown me
With the thoughts I thought I lost
But what's the cost?
I bet you wouldn't have guessed
That I tried my best
To be with you
To see this through
And I still want to
(So all I've got to say is)
Chorus:
Do you know what the time is baby?
I see the way you’ve been staring at me lately
And I’m not one to say these things
But I jumped the gun and threw my hat in the ring
I just want you to know
That you’re the one for me
I just wanna see you on the daily
And do you know that you drive me crazy?
Cause I got lost and I found the way
You’d be the perfect ending to my every day and I
I just want you to know
That you’re the one for me
Verse 2:
Now I'm playing it fair
I didn't want this to take all day
Just pour it up
That's what they all say
Yeah it took time
Finding these rhymes
I couldn't let it go
Cause she's my queen
Took her from a dream
Part of my team
And I can't let her go
Prechorus
Chorus
Break
Bridge:
It’s the way you flip your hair
(Those eyes that glare)
And I’m sorry for staring but
This is what we’re supposed to be
(It takes the most of me)
I hope she never forgets who I am
And I gotta say that it’s not healthy
(But babe I’m telling you it’s yes, no, maybe)
Tell me what you think of me
(Tell me what this could be)
Won’t you be the one for me?
Chorus

Chasing the Sun

Verse 1:
Her life was slamming doors on her,
Whiskey kisses
Time in her head,
Got her thinking she was doing it wrong
Now she’s thinking overtime while she’s working at the drive thru
Wishing she were there, any place that wasn't so near
Brushing off her cheek as it rolled down, one tear
Pulling up her hood, tryna hide away from her fears
Thinking to herself that she could get out some day
Train, bus, car, plane, any type of some way
Walking out the door, didn't have nobody to face
Starting up her story doing wrong the right way
Chorus:
Touch down
From the silver skyline
Get up
Cause you've always got time
She was running away
Nobody asked her to stay
Chasing the sun for the day
She's the one that got away
Verse 2:
Now every dawning day
She remembers how she misses
That picket fence family
That she never had
Now she’s hoping for a dime from the man right off the subway
Hoping for a life where don't have to cover her face
Words kill, but the shame’s got some way
Of hurtin’ burnin’ scars into the growin’ price that she paid
Searching for a place that she could hide in
Looking for someone to store her pride in
Town bells got her worried bout her timing
Right about the time when she heard somebody chime in with
Chorus
Break:
She’s the one that got away

Restored

Verse 1:
Take me back to the times when this felt so right
Take me back to the times and turn on the light
Lets take it back so we can read between the lines
Take me back, this is it, this if fight or flight
Chorus:
And I was waiting for you
To call, to take me home
And I was ready for a piece of me, to be restored
Verse 2:
What would you say if I told that I cared?
Would you take off running, back to who you wanted to be before
No, I won't be fooled, no not this time
No, think about all that you left behind
No, where’s the good in an uphill battle?
But to say that you lost to defend what you had?
Chorus:
Bridge:
No I won't give up this good life
No I won't leave it all behind
No I won't take a break to think now
It's time to show who you are now (x2)
(I'm not giving up) x 4
Take a chance now
Chorus:
And I was waiting for you
To call, to take me home
And I was ready for a piece of me, to be restored
Call it out now
Say what you want to say
You know I'll see this through
You didn't want
You didn't really want me too

Cut Up

Verse 1:
Caroline
Let me get this out, I miss you
Wanted to tell you since we spoke last year
But I've kept it
Locked up, yeah it's all locked in
And that's what happens when you be the best you've ever been
You're the reason why they always say that there's a
Better way ahead of me, a place to stay
Show me the season, show me the day
To do the things I always wanted and still be okay
Chorus:
Help me out (x4)
Verse 2:
Say it again
What was I thinking?
Wishing we could be, wishing we could go back to when
But you’ve got me
Cut up, yeah I’m all cut up
Can we repair these broken stairs and step into the sun?
One year apart, it ain’t so bad they say
But if distance makes the heart grow fonder
What is it that makes is stronger?
Is it two tries, or is it starting over?
Cause you’ve still got me thinking bout the stars at night
Chorus
Bridge:
This is it, this is now or never
Happily ever after
Would you stay for worse or better?
Avoid another rupture?
We waste time with these lives
When we both know that we should be
Landslide, It’s your eyes
They pierce mine and make me forget
Chorus

Verse 1:
Top down
And we're cruisin’ through the back bay
It's a new year and I've been doing things my
Way off track but nobody knows
That I've got no more left to show
Who says we have to stay together?
I'm living life for now, not what it was
Even if I could try to forget her
I'd buy a locket and a keychain first
And I really think I could stay forever
Like a dove or a bird without a home
Thinking it couldn't get any better
Ain't nobody gonna break my bones today
Chorus:
Say what you want to
Stand up and say it again
This is a time you
Don't have to fake or pretend
The rays are comin down
Safe and sound don't worry about
What you're after
Is in your hands so just reach out
Verse 2:
Stop now
And take a look around you
The glowing city sitting pretty makes you want to
Hit the road and post up
Or make a 3-piece band
Or commit to what exists and be its biggest fan
Close your eyes,
You are the whole world
It's easy to look back
And to love who you were
But the grass that you're on
Has got you sippin on a trance that'll never be gone
So get up dance dance dance
Chorus
Guitar Solo
Break:
Speak up
What have you got to say? (x4)
