The Walk 02:47
lyrics
buy track
Walking down these neighborhood streets I love and hate everything I see All of these neon trees These signs, these lights, I'm so lonely Is it the dark or is it me? Is it the walk or is it me? I don't know which way to go Yes and no or maybe so Drinks and friends are all I know But drinks and friends, they come and go Is it the dark or is it me? Is it the walk or is it me? Open up my eyes but I can't see Is it the walk or is it me? Cuz I don't know anymore Why we don't talk anymore I just can't walk anymore When my fucking heart is on the floor I gave up

There's no need for an honest man You've gotten used to the lies You know the steps to this dance And you're done with drying your eyes And you say a little prayer before you lay down at night Asking for forgiveness and for simple things A pair of steady hands And solid ground to stand But you never could decide When you wake up to the eyes of a total stranger If the hearts you're holding make you feel alive Ain't it precious The way you try? All those moments on film and a half-hearted smile Say you're alright But you cannot hide That you grew a little tired of them lonesome nights And the bottle Is a kiss from a friend When you're buried in sheets It's hard to breathe in the end Curled your fingers Into delicate fists You're worth more than this So much more than this But you never could decide When you wake up to the eyes of a total stranger If the hearts you're holding make you feel alive And the pain will fade Any day, any day, any day And the pain will fade Any day, any day, any day

Plan B 02:04
lyrics
buy track
Sad songs and IPAs Sound machines and blackout shades First dates, old and new Laying out what we've been through Swipe left or swipe right Either way it's a lonely night Insta-likes and page views Anxiously avoiding news There's a brave new world That's raging inside me Those pretty girls Always got the best of me I tried so hard Now I think I know I'm pretty sure I can make it on my own All my time's been taken up By making up and breaking up I'm still amazed after all these days So much has happened but nothing's changed So I'll learn the words and shout them out Or cut my wrist and bleed it out Write a song and sing it loud I hope I make my mother proud There's a brave new world That's raging inside me Those pretty girls Always got the best of me I tried so hard Now I think I know I'm pretty sure I can make it on my own I'm desperately in love with everything that was And everything that is, the pieces don't quite fit I tried holding on, but feeling too far gone The better part of me is ready for Plan B

American Dreams (Part 1) 03:05
lyrics
buy track
Rolled in like a storm That I didn’t see Ripped the heart clean from my sleeve Put shake in my knees I made you up Like American dreams Girls like you only exist Up on the silver screen Hold Hooooolld steady ‘Cause you’ll take it all Run through the night Just like at thief Made the getaway clean Ohhh oh ho I fall in love A little too easily But what is a man without a vice? Heartache have mercy You don’t know what it’s like To forget to breathe When you waltz in the room I swear Were you sent here for me? Hard to hold steady ‘Cause you took it all Ran through the night Just like at thief Made the getaway clean Are you waiting for someone to sweep You right off of your feet Someone better than me? But their love will never be There are those days you don’t say anything Those nights I pray you’d let me in What made you build your walls so high? If you see her in Brooklyn tonight, tell her I tried If you see her in Brooklyn tonight, tell her I tried

No Man's Land (Part 2) 03:49
lyrics
buy track
First time her heart broke really took it's toll. A wild ride, she never liked to lose control. Theres an undeniable pride burning in her eyes. Some sort of comfort that she carries, an inviting light. Oh, she loves to run Until her lungs give out and legs go numb. Back to No Man's Land Where she knows no troubled sleep A place where you and I can never reach. She keeps her cards close and she holds on tight To mistakes she never made, they drive her empty for a country mile. Sometimes there's a sadness hiding in her eyes But she won't let you see her cry. Oh, she loves to run Back to a place where she is safe and sound Back to No Man's Land Where she knows no troubled sleep A place where you and I can never reach. Oh, she loves to run Where it's easier to ignore all the sounds All the burned out thones where the tired weathered sleep She don't need to hear your sympathy Once upon a time I swore I believed That you and I would chase American Dreams

I'm Alright 02:26
lyrics

I had the fastest times in the slowest year Still not sure how I ended up here But oh I’m alright, I’m alright The day you left it rained and hailed I drank so much that my liver failed But oh I’m alright, I’m alright I spent my time in this maze I feel like I’ve been walking for days But oh I’m alright, I’m alright I’m filled with grief and regret For every girl I’ve ever met But oh I’m alright, I’m alright I’m sick of writing all these songs about all these girls And how they mean the whole damn world to me No one knows just how this ends But still we roll with our team of best friends It’s all we can ever do It’s always been me and you

Ride The Sky 01:59
lyrics

Down near the Bayou I wrote you a letter Southern heat brings out the profiteers Wish you were here... 'Cause we met a man selling his homemade medicine We were lost in this new frontier If you were near (You'd say) Ride the sky - Ride the sky The world looks different from way up high Ride the sky - Dare to fly Nothing really matters when your world is amplified Out in Chicago where it all began We walked the burning streets Without a care or a plan Then we met a man trying to peddle medicine All we need's a little push You were pure adrenaline (You said) Ride the sky - Ride the sky The world looks different from way up high Ride the sky - Dare to fly Nothing really matters when your world is amplified Ya dead man!

Anxiety Over The Atlantic 02:45
lyrics
buy track
A different country everyday Is pretty good for my mental state My anxiety has no passport I'm writing postcards in my mind To everything I left behind And the fear and the guilt and everything that made me this way Once I get on that plane Everything will be the same I'm heading back home to start again I wish this airplane would crash into the ocean Let the waves swallow me up in one motion Then everything will be quiet again Then everything will be quiet again Maybe it will be ok I tell myself that everyday But if time heals all wounds, I'm years away I guess part of it is shame And not knowing who to blame It's time to leave it all and start again. I wish this airplane would crash into the ocean Let the waves swallow me up in one motion Then everything will be quiet again Then everything will be quiet again

House of Vans 02:35
lyrics

Finding comfort in driving around Greenpoint tonight Nothing but the water and the skyline on my right I don’t know where I’m going and I’m not sure what to do That metaphor’s not lost on me and I’m sure it’s not on you Five hundred punks standing out on Franklin street Waiting for the band that they’ll never get to see Dressed all in black, they scream and shout That band they love, they just sold out Oo-oh oh can’t you see? (oh can’t you see?) Everything I love (everything I love) Is dead to me I put my phone on vibrate because I can’t stand the sound One more fucking message and I’ll smash it on the ground Anxious as fuck, i’m freaking out Everything I love, has just sold out Oo-oh oh can’t you see? (oh can’t you see?) Everything I love (everything I love) Is dead to me
