Throwin' It Away

Say it ain't so
And we'll find a new day
Say it ain't so
And we'll find a way
Say it ain't so
And we'll go to sleep now
And wake in the warm morning air
Throwin' it away
Throwin' it away
I'm done wasting time with your games
I've said it once
And I'll say it again
I'm done wasting tears over you
Ask me to stay
And I'm packing my bags
Tell me to go
And I'm leaving today
Ask me to stay
And I'm heading for the long road ahead
And I'm not turning back
Throwin' it away
Throwin' it away
I'm done wasting time with your games
I've said it once
And I'll say it again
I'm done wasting tears over you
I'm done wasting tears over you
I'm done wasting tears over you

Floorboards
04:29

The old floorboards creak
With the touch of your feet
The one in the middle
Sings out like a fiddle
And though you're no longer there
It reminds me of times
You'd play me to sleep
Pinewood plank floors
Tell me a story
I'm craving a memory
That I think you know
Holding a place in time
Knitting needle lost 'er mind
The stories never told
Sweep out through the mold
A picture of dust
Settled
Centuries old
Pinewood plank floors
Tell me a story
I'm craving a memory
That I think you know
The Earth sighs a gust of air
Sends a story here to there
And so when I'm missing you
I'll just stop,
slow down and listen
to the floorboards
the floorboards speak
Pinewood plank floors
Tell me a story
I'm craving a memory
That I think you know
The floorboards speak….

If You Want It That Way
02:50

If you walk before you crawl
You stumble and then you fall
And it won't last long
But you, you'll have a sad song
If you want it that way
If you think before you shout
It might just all work out
It'll make sense in the end
I promise you that my friend
If you want it that way

Oh Storm
02:22
|
|||
You open the door
And wait for the cold
It's a warm breeze
Dark days like the one
When he let you down
Blow over
The river runs through
Passing you by
It flows deeply
Out in the cold
The lies you were told
Will fade away
Oh storm,
Knock me down
I'll get up
I'll get over
The fire burns hot
The tempers they flared
We were blazing
Now our hearts are worn
The past lessons learned
And the tough times
Bellow smoke
Oh storm,
Knock me down
I'll get up
I'll get over

Sand And Oil
03:17
|

Where is the darkness?
Who stole the night?
Summer's gone
And there's no sign at all
That the night's gonna fall
Where is the winter?
I shoulda flown south by now
The leaves are gone
But there's no sign at all
of the Hunters' belt in the sky
Where have the stars gone?
We're covered in a blanket of lights
Your artificial days
Are killing me
And I don't know which way to fly
Where has my land gone?
Who took my home?
Your deep pockets
Have sent you out west
To make a mess with sand and oil
