Rust Belt 03:47
What if we could pack the car And drive on through the night To get to LA When we get to Hollywood We'll stand where all our heros stood Match our hands to old concrete Pretend the prints are ours and keep believing We're not dreaming I've got a one-way ticket all aboard a train headed for New York City, opportunity Gonna go to Madison Square Plant a flower in the garden there And watch it grow Taller than the tallest building I have ever seen It won't be long till we belong among the rarities And I won't wait to deviate from the factory I've always felt that this rust belt didn't fit right It won't be long till we belong among the rarities And I won't wait to deviate from the factory I've always felt that this rust belt didn't fit right It won't be long till we belong among the rarities release me from the factory and I I won't wait to deviate from a diluted path I'm drowning in the neon bath and I've Always felt that this rust belt This rust belt felt a bit tight

Catastrophe 02:32
You'll hear a lot of things without knowing me You'll read and see what my eyes just saw But I can't say things that I really mean Unless you're near me So come inside my head You can call me a catastrophe and I won't disagree If you wanna be sad till we're 63 than I will let you be Communication lost in endless repeat Meaning lost in fragmented beats But I can't write things that I really mean So please come quickly So I don't lose this thought You can call me a catastrophe and I won't disagree If you wanna be sad till we're 63 than I will let you be Call me a catastrophe and I won't disagree If you're wanting me just to let you be Than I will let you be Yes I will let you be Yes I will let you be Yes I will let you

Almost Me 04:31
Dead in my hand Is your voice played back over a phone Empty is my head Devoid of thoughts or come-backs left to say As you try to laugh me back These months made me part from that And your only vice that's left is me More like almost me Dead are our dreams Feels so good to cover them with Earth Bury them deep babe No more children's names Or apartment blocks that never were to be Cause I'm trusting only what I see As you try to laugh me back These months made me part from that And your only vice that's left is me More like almost me And what feels good Will soon be storage space All dusty and away No longer common thought As you try to laugh me back These months made me part from that And your only vice that's left is me As you try to laugh me back These months made me part from that And your only habit left it's me Almost me Almost me So cross the bridge at night babe What do you see A million little lights that just Pass time as they please So make one of your own And don't wait up for me

Just in Case 04:45
That day was so cold My breath was thicker than the smoke The snow mixed with the salt Serpentine on the asphalt All I have is this cloudy view Of the naked trees and the grey afternoon Anticipation keeps my nerves on fire Stiff knees, lips cracked dry Complexion of a ghost Meets salty tears and puffy eyes I cried and I don’t know why And just in case you wanna leave It’s ok, it’s ok And just in case you don’t believe me It’s ok, it’s ok The words she chose to use Slipped right through the armor protecting you The pain distorts your face Love never had such a bitter taste Twenty years this fight’s been raging on With nothing lost and nothing won I can’t believe the things I’ve heard Before the night’s even begun And just in case you wanna leave It’s ok, it’s ok And just in case you don’t believe me It’s ok, it’s ok And just in case you can’t bear witness to my life And just in case you want the easy way tonight I sit alone paralyzed by fear Like a child whose parent’s fights he can hear Just waiting for morning to reappear So we can disappear Now the space in-between Starts to bust at the seams And you’re drifting away And all that you can say is Just in case you wanna leave It’s ok, it’s ok And just in case you don’t believe me It’s ok, it’s ok And just in case you can’t bear witness to my life And just in case you want the easy way tonight

Expose 05:36
Won't you reassure me That I'll make it out alive Don't you ignore me Or say just to struggle by Just tell me once That I'll be fine Just tell my ears The words that they want to hear Just tell me this If I'm so strong What have I got to show What have I got to expose I can bandage up all my bullshit But when removed you can see the scars And my shadow says I can't help it I've fallen victim to this world of ours Just tell me once That I'll be fine Just tell my ears The words that they want to hear Just tell me this If I'm so strong What have I got to show What have I got to expose Maybe if I act together Than suddenly I'll really be And who needs any outside comfort When you can lie to yourself endlessly Endlessly Soothe my fear Think what you wanna think Say the word Then carry on easily Steal my slack And my comfort Just tell me I've got your back any day Soothe my fear Think what you wanna think Say the word Then carry on easily Steal my slack And my comfort Just tell me I've got your back any day Just tell me once That I'll be fine Just tell my ears The words that they want to hear Just tell me this If I'm so strong What have I got to show What have I got to expose
