When the sky is pink
I lie in the grass and think
Of you and me, and what we'll never be
'Cause it's summer nights like this
I try but I can't resist
To dip my feet in streams of memories
It's not that I can't let go
It's not that I miss you so
But when you mean so much to someone's life
How do you turn your back and say goodbye?
So baby, if you need me, I'll be there
Just like I've always been for all these years
We're deeper than this river runs, I know
And if your life gets dark and you feel lost
You know I'll light your way, brave any cost
We're deeper than this river runs, I know
Yeah baby, we're deeper than this river runs, I know
So let it run
Our love went from good to bad
Lost sight of just what we had
Between you and me we don't know who to blame
'Cause this anger runs so deep
With all the pain we keep
It's a wonder if we'll ever feel the same
It's not that I've come undone
It's not from the summer sun
But when you're everything that someone needs
How do you just pack up, then up and leave?

It's Alright

I showed you heaven
I gave you the world
These passionate kisses, from this passionate girl
And maybe I should've known better
Mother said girl, watch your step
Maybe I shouldn't have let you
Get under my skin so now I can't forget
But I say, it's alright
You can go on your way
As if I could ask you to stay
And I say, it's alright
You can go on your way
On your way
Twisted and gnarled
The nails on my cross
The fire that burned here
Fell victim to frost
And maybe I should've known better
Father said girl, save your soul
Maybe I shouldn't have let you
Take hold of my heart, 'til I lost all control

Good Idea

Like nails on a chalkboard
The worst kind of feeling
In the pit of your stomach
It feels so uneasy
And all you can do
It's just sit in your room
Scream in your pillows
Until you turn blue
And you don't know where he is tonight
And you don't know where he's gone
Oh, but you've good idea
The stress and the misery
Crippled with fear
But the blood in your ears
Won't let you hear clearly
So when he says he loves you
You hear that he don't
Says he'll be there for you
You know he won't
And you don't know where he is tonight
And you don't know where he's gone
Oh, but you've got a good idea
And you don't know why he's out tonight
Why he hasn't come back home
Oh, but you've got a good idea
Jealous eyes have left me wilted
Helpless cries
But you can't save me
Save me from myself

Reality

Intoxicated in Cambridge
Took all that I had
Not to call you, I miss you
The longing's so bad
And I know I'm just pieces that made up your life
But reality cuts like a knife
Reality cuts like a knife
Romantic notions in excess
My heart in a sling
Naive to what your poisoned arrows would bring
Both sadly and gladly would brave every bite
And reality cuts like a knife
Reality cuts like a knife
Don't feel bad, it's alright
I knew this was my fight
To battle my dark days
You're better off anyways
I can't stand this spotlight
I want this to feel right
You don't have to love me
You just have to love me tonight
Couldn't handle the absence of someone to love
So I got in my car
And my darling, I drove
But it's hard to get somewhere
When you blindly drive
And reality cuts like a knife
Reality cuts like a knife
