1. _ Paper Moon
Comes a time when you get turned around and,
Life itself just wears you out but,
You keep gettin' ready for the big parade.
Oh you shine your shoes and you fake a smile.
Salute the players with that famous style,
'Cause keepin' up has kept you in chains.
I was thinkin' that if you know a way out,
Then I'd like to go with you.
And we can burn out like candles,
Under that paper moon.
They just don't know anything at all.
They just don't know anything at all.
If by traffic jams and big TV's,
And hipsters trapped in their own irony but,
If I lay and think about settelin' down.
Ah you quit your job and you sell your car.
You burn your clothes and you pray to the stars.
'Cause you swore to God that you'd never end up this way.
I was thinkin' that if you know a way out,
Then I'd like to go with you.
And we can burn out like candles under that paper moon.
They just don't know anything at all.
They just don't know anything at all.
At all.
At all.
At all.
At all.
Comes a time when you get turned around.
Life itself just wears you out.
You keep gettin' ready for that big parade.

2. _ Never Get Over You
She sits quiet
In the shadow of the sun
She looks tired
Her life that's come undone
She turns, turns, turns, turns
She likes hockey
And summers by the lake
We're not talking
Because of my mistakes
I burn, burn, burn, burn
[Chorus]
If you walk out that door
I just don't know what I'd do
I'll never get over you
In my heart
I just don't know what I'd do
I'll never get over you
End the silence
But it's never been so loud
I try to fight it
But the words just don't come out
I burn, burn, burn, burn
[Chorus]
There's no hiding
From your silence
There's no hiding
[Chorus]
Don't you go
Don't you go
Don't you go
Don't you go

3. _ Dreamland
A mother sets the dinner table
Son crashes to the pavement, yeah
A father workin' just to make ends
We spend our lives to try and make sense, of it.
But I, I feel the love, I feel the power
It comes to me in the darkest hour
And I, I wanna feel it again.
In this dreamland the kids are alright,
And the sky is blue.
We all got wings,
And know how to fly.
I made it to the moon.
The sun on my face,
My head in the clouds.
Time on my side,
My feet off the ground,
I'm not comin' down.
The summer ends, the ocean dries up
A stranger dies and no one gives a fuck
I take a look over my shoulder
All my friends have gotten older, oh yeah, oh yeah
But I, I feel the love, I feel the power
It comes to me in the darkest hour
And I, I wanna feel it again.
In this dreamland the kids are alright,
And the sky is blue.
We all got wings,
And know how to fly.
I made it to the moon.
The sun on my face,
My head in the clouds,
Time on my side,
My feet off the ground.
I'm not comin' down.
I'm not gonna
Change just to change,
Break just to break,
Blame just to blame,
My head in the clouds,
Feet off the ground,
I'm not comin' down.
In this dreamland the kids are alright
And the sky is blue.
We all got wings,
And know how to fly.
I made it to the moon.
The sun on my face,
My head in the clouds,
Time on my side,
My feet off the ground.
I'm not comin' down.
I'm not comin' down.
I'm not comin' down.
I'm not comin' down.

4. _ Refuge
I picked you up, I held you out.
I love you. I love you.
I placed you down, I held my breath.
I wonder. Yeah, I wonder.
What'd I do? You're not around.
It's a fall.
I've got to tell you,
That this wall, was not meant for you.
I see sides all, sides all around.
Get through.
You'll get through this.
The moon strikes one. You rest your head.
This refuge, oh this refuge.
The sun comes up, and life begins.
There's danger, oh there's danger.
What'd I do if you weren't around?
It's a fall.
I've got to tell you,
That this wall, was not ment for you.
I see sides all, sides all around.
You'll get through, you'll get through.
The human condition, needs a hiding place.
This human condition, needs a hiding place.
A hiding place.
It's a fall.
I've got to tell you,
That this wall, was not meant for you.
I see sides all, sides all around.
You'll get through, you'll get through,
You'll get through, through, you'll get through.

5. _ Monkey Brains
Makin' plans for your escape
Get between all the ricochets
Assume positions in the sky
Fly away with the butterflies
Rest your head in Pacific grove
Lose yourself down in Mexico
Wanna taste of the monkey brains
Take a bite man, don't be shy
[Chorus]
They're comin' after you!
They're comin' after you!
It's all you can do
They're comin' after you!
Got your file and your DNA
Membership in the NRA
On the list with the FBI
Yearbook pics from the junior high
Camouflage in your orange and black
Soar above all the ground attacks
Safe and sound on this coastal plane
Celebrate with the cheap champagne
[Chorus]
Generations trying to find a home
A thousand miles away from what they know
It's time to go
Generations trying to find a home
A thousand miles away from what they know
It's time to go
[Chorus]

6. _ Escape Artist
Every time I think of you
I feel the coldest chill
I think about your great escape
An artist with expert skills
It's painful when you're not around
But it's bound to change
You're the ghost
Empty are these hands
You're the ghost
There's no turning back
No turning back
Every time these lights go out
I'm in this fire drill
With blood shot eyes I stand on guard
This room is quiet and still
Was never one to lay any blame
For the story's the same
You're the ghost
In empty obvious hands
You're the ghost
There's no turning back
No turning back
You're the ghost
In empty obvious hands
You're the ghost
There's no turning back
There's No turning back
Oh there's no turning back
There's no turning

7. _ White Flags
She says it's cold
And she says the sky's about to fall
How do you know?
Well she says the writing's on the wall
Everything I made, I somehow broke
Every word I say, I think I stole
I can't explain
But I won't give up the ghost
She looks like an angel
Talks like it's war
And this whole world is gone crazy
God's gone a little lazy
We're raising our white flags and holding our breath
But no retreat and no surrendering
She says it's late
And come on, we're headed for the sun
I said now wait
Oh this battle's just begun
Every line I've crossed has come undone
Everything I know is somehow wrong
I can't escape
And there's nowhere left to run
She looks like an angel
Talks like it's war
And this whole world is gone crazy
God's gone a little lazy
We're raising our white flags and holding our breath
But no retreat and no surrendering
I'll go that far with you, to war with you
I'll go that far with you
I'd break down these walls for you
Well this whole world is gone crazy
God's gone a little lazy
We're raising our white flags and holding our breath
Oh we're trading our black hearts for angels instead
But no retreat and no surrendering

8. _ Signs of Life
I'm not lookin' for trouble. I'm takin' one in the chin.
I don't know where I'm goin', or where to begin.
Alone in this room, thinkin' of you nd what could've been.
The trouble that I've seen.
The trouble got to me.
And there's no signs of life in here at all.
The sound of quiet is defining.
I'll wait for you to call.
And there's no sings of life in here at all.
All the trouble that I've seen.
The trouble, won't get the best of me.
Ah la la la la la
Ah la la la la la
Ah la la la la la la
I'm sending you out a signal.
Over land, over sea.
From the top of the great lakes, down the Mississippi.
Alone in the room, thinkin' of you and those possibilities.
The trouble that I've seen.
This trouble got to me.
And there's no signs of life in here at all.
The sound of quiet is defining.
I'll wait for you to call.
And there's no signs of life in here at all.
All the trouble that I've seen.
The trouble.
Ah the trouble that I've seen.
The trouble won't get the best of me.
There's no signs of life in here at all.
The sound of quiet is defining.
I'll wait for you to call.
There's no signs of life in here at all.
Ah the trouble that I've seen.
The trouble.
Ah the trouble that I've seen.
And trouble won't get the best of me.

9. _ End Is Where We Begin
Alone in a crowd, a missin' planet
You crash to the ground,
You never planned that, It just happened this way.
It happened this way.
The starts in your eyes,
If you believe in death you're certain to die.
If you believe in love you're always alive.
You're always alive.
You're always alive.
[Chorus]
Here I am.
Waitin' for one last chance,
'Cause this time we got, nothing left to loose,
And everything is ruined.
But the end is where we begin.
You're lost in the clouds,
I climbed a ladder but I can't talk you down.
And all that matters is tomorrow, today.
Tomorrow, today.
Tomorrow, today.
[Chorus]
And the winds will lead us somewhere.
And the winds will lead us somewhere.
Hey!
[Chorus]
Ah, the end is where we begin.
We got a long, long, long,
We got a long, long, long,
We got a long, long, long,
Long way to go.

10. _ All You Did Was Save My Life
You, looked at me as you walked in the room
Like the red sea, you split me open
Somehow I knew these wings were stolen
All you did was save my life
Tried to run but I couldn't move
Well I paid for these concrete shoes
But like a singer that sings the blues
You saw hope in the hopeless
[Chorus]
I'm not dying
All you did was save my life
Pulled me out of that flat line
Put the heartbeat back inside
I'm not dying
All you did was get me through
I owe every breath to you
Heart and soul unparalyzed
All you did was save my life
Save my life
I'm not for sale but I've been sold
The more I hear the less I know
And the lies are swallowed whole
In their insignificance
The story's been told a million times
But it's different when it's your life
I won the lottery tonight
The lottery tonight
The lottery tonight
[Chorus]
I started to come around
The dogs are backing down
I'm not afraid to see
The devil's gone underground
This tightrope's been cut down
And I can finally breathe
You, looked at me as you walked in the room
Like the red sea you split me open
Somehow I knew these wings were stolen
[Chorus]
All you did was save my life
(Put the heart beat back inside)
All you did was save my life
(Put the heart beat back inside)
All you did was save my life.
