Summer sets on us
As our youth turns into dust
Now all I’m thinking of
Is to lose always to love?
Small town Saturday
When I first saw your face
But who were we to know?
How a heart follows a ghost
Will I hold you
Will I know to
Because I’m afraid I might just fall through
& every hour
Overpowers
To lay me down fake flowers
Teenage homesick lies
We were so terrified
Car drove off the road
All at once, & all up in smoke
Summer sets on us
As our youth turns into dust

I was empty, killing time
Half awake in florescent light
Bored & broken, falling down
Too many reasons to leave this town
Too many reasons to leave this town
You were lonely, out of reach
Been that way since seventeen
Said your family thinks you died
Nothing to lose when you’re left behind
Nothing to lose when you’re left behind
If we never come back home
I’ll follow you anywhere you go
From Montreal down to Mexico
I’ll follow you anywhere you go
I’ll follow you anywhere you go
Pack your suitcase, fuck our friends
Doubt they’ll miss us in the end
Headlights flashing through the sky
Felt so perfect I could cry
Felt so perfect I could cry
Ohhh
We could be anybody
Ohhhh
An old car, a little money
Ohhhh
It doesn’t matter I swear
Anywhere I don’t care
If we never make it home
I’ll follow you anywhere you go
From Tel Aviv ‘cross to Tokyo
I’ll follow you anywhere you go
I’ll follow you anywhere you go

shots in the dark

I knew a boy who never was a man
Had a lot of dreams, had a lot of plans
& they were taken away by a shaky hand
I knew a boy who never was a man
I knew a girl back in my hometown
Settled right in to settling down
On a Friday night she can’t be found
I knew a girl back in my hometown
It’s the sun in the morning
It’s the stars in the night
It’s it all could mean nothing
It’s we can’t get it right
Doubled in our dying
Hollowed in our hearts
We’re all lost in the light and
We’re shots in the dark
I had a lover out on the run
Time can change but time comes undone
Where have you been my only one?
I had a lover out on the run

never love another
04:09

When I saw you at the party, drinking coke & wine
When I finally got the courage to ask you for the time
In between all of the glances & when I start to stutter
Well I knew when I first saw you I’d never love another
Well I knew when I first saw you I’d never love another
When you stepped into my car & we sang Petty til the light
When I held you in the morning, & kissed you in the night
All the days turned into weeks & months turned into summers
& I whispered in the darkness “I’ll never love another”
& I whispered in the darkness “I’ll never love another”
When the autumn air blows colder & winter brings the snow
When you’re crying in the doorway & I’m begging please don’t go
You said “I never meant to hurt you, or ever make you suffer
But I know that if I leave now I’ll never love another
But I know that if I leave now I’ll never love another”
When we’re standing at the alter reading out our vows
When we said we weren’t believers but we did it anyhow
All the ones that came before us, we said that we were tougher
& we promised to be true, to never love another
& we promised to be true, to never love another
When the bills are never-ending with jobs & a home
When I felt her small foot kicking we would ever be alone
& if two can become one then a father & a mother
I remember we both told her “I’ll never love another”
I remember we both told her “I’ll never love another”
When my mind & friends are leaving, & my hair has all turned grey
When a machine keeps my heart beating there’s one last thing I’ll say
I was never sure of much but I was certain like no other
That I knew when I first saw you I’d never love another
That I knew when I first saw you I’d never love another
That I knew when I first saw you I’d never love another

more less

Somedays I sit & wonder
How the hell did I get here
Looking out then going under
The more I stare then the less it’s clear
The more I stare then the less it’s clear
Somewhere there’s a siren ringing
In the middle of my hometown
A runaway from words I’m singing
The more I try it the less I’m down
The more I try it the less I’m down
Ohh burning brightly
Ohh letting go
Ohh right behind me
The more I’m living the less I know
The more I’m living the less I know
It’s been ten years of faint forevers
Where I’ve been where I went wrong
Passed by on now or nevers
The more I’m leaving the less I’m gone
The more I’m leaving the less I’m gone
Some nights when I remember
The two of us way back when
Cigarettes & soft Septembers
The more beginning the less we end
The more beginning the less we end

still

If the sun never shines
& the sky is never blue
If the night goes on & on
There will still be me & you
If our hopes slip away
Disappear without a clue
If we both have nothing else
There will still be me & you
There will still be my heart racing
There will still be your hello
There will still be my hands shaking
As I held you in the TV glow
If someday we’ve got it bad
Wasted on the avenue
If we’re lost or left behind
There will still be me & you
There will still be your light crashing
There will still be my goodbye
There will still be your voice laughing
Every one still running through my mind
If tomorrow never comes
& our dreams are left untrue
If the whole world falls apart
There will still be me & you
