Half My Mind

Verse 1
I got half my mind set
On never ever ever wanting to see you
Waking up and leaving you
Walking away

I got half my mind set
On writing you a long, long letter
But silence speaks better
When there's nothing to say

Chorus
I got half my mind set
Half my mind set
And the other half
Is willing to take a bet
I got half my mind set
Half my mind set
And the other half
Is willing to take a bet on you

Verse 2
The other half says
Don't listen; don't talk, out of time
Everything is just fine
Don't throw it away

The other half says
Take a deep breath let it out slow
Sip her love adagio
Cause she's a fine Beaujolais

Chorus

Bridge
Give me just a little time
Give me just a little time
Give me just a little time
To make up my twisted mind

Sunshine

Verse 1
Your rose colored glasses
Help hide the dark tones
And you let me borrow them
Whenever you're home

And you tell me all I need
Is this fertile ground
But nothing ever grows
When you're not around

Chorus
And if you're not the sunshine in my life
How come I'm so cold without you tonight?

Verse 2
Between friends and lovers
Is where you and I lie
It's a bed of emotion
That your words deny

And all you keep saying
Is it's a passing eclipse
But the only shadow cast
Is the doubt from your lips

Chorus
And if you're not the sunshine in my life
How come I'm so cold without you tonight?

You Think You Know Me

Verse 1
You read a book
You see a movie
And now you think you're Gandhi
And you wanna teach me

Predict and pry
Try to find a lie
Delusional victory and
You think you know me

Chorus
You think you know me
You think you know me
You think you know me
You think you know me

Verse 2
Got a new outlook
That people are just scenery
Cause now you think you're Dali
And you wanna paint me

Wise and high
A social butterfly
Another shaky theory, and
You think you know me

Chorus

Butterfly

Verse 1
Well I guess I should have known
When in the morning you had flown
That you could never be still
And I guess you never will, so just

Chorus
Fly on by
Flutter by butterfly
And don't land here

Verse 2
You're up there getting high
You could come down
But you ask yourself why
I wonder where you'll spend tonight
Another layover
On a long distance flight and you just

Without You

Verse 1
Cover me in this time of need
Hold my hands that are shaking like leaves
Kiss my eyes that have dried in your sun
Cause I need you now, more than anyone
More than anyone

Chorus
I don't know what I would do
Without you
I don't know what I would do
Without you
Without you

Verse 2
This fear is nothing new my dear
You break it down whenever you are near
I'm like a child who cannot walk alone
But when I'm with you, I know I'm home
I know I'm home now

Chorus x 2

Bridge
Without you
I'm always looking back
Without you
I'd slip through the cracks
Without you
I'm an exiled soul
Without you
I'd lose all control
All control

Chorus x 2

I've Been Wrong Before

Verse 1
You let me go
I fell like salt
Into your cold white snow
Now all season pass
But somehow Winter Lasts
And nothing ever grows

Pre-Chorus
Your love is frozen still
And it will never thaw, but

Chorus
I've been wrong before
I've been wrong before
I always think that I'm so sure, but
I've been wrong before

Verse 2
You say you're fine
I think somewhere
Your fruit got crushed into wine
All bottled up
Kept cool and in the dark
Silent all this time

Pre-Chorus
I will never reach you
Perhaps you have no core, but

Chorus

Breakdown

Pre-Chorus Your love is frozen still And it will never thaw, but

Slip Through Your Hands

Verse 1
Suppress the sunlight
Release the rain
You get your comfort
From the pain

Pre-Chorus 1
But all I do is shine on you
And that drives you insane

Verse 2
So scared to repair
What you keep broken
You want to stop me
From getting any closer

Pre-Chorus 2
So now you want to break it up
And change all our plans

Chorus
You wanna let all this love like sand
Slip through your hands

Verse 3
So hard at work
From the start
Designing ways
For us to fall apart

Pre-Chorus 2

Where Are You?

Verse 1
I missed you, or did you call?
Maybe it's the answering machine's fault
I got silence, when I needed talk
Maybe I should drink to get calm

Pre-chorus
You're not one to let me down
No, you're not one to let me down

Chorus
Where are you?
Where are you?
Where are you now?
Where are you?
I need you
You're nowhere to be found

Verse 2
It's a long day, a sudden day
This long night needs your hold again
But no word, not one sound
You know it's harder when you're not around

Pre-chorus
Chorus

Bridge
You know I think the worst
What would happen if you were hurt?
The tragic circumstances in my mind, flow
As my imagination runs wild

Have It All

Verse 1
You've got a polished frame
And your ego is overflowing
I don't know where you're coming from
But I sure know where you're going

Chorus
And I can see you standing there
Laughing without a care
Did you really think that you would never fall?
Did you really think that you could have it all?

Verse 2
Caught up in the curves ahead
Leaving us behind
You're running smoothly now
But that will fade with time

Chorus

Bridge
And when it all comes down
There are no angels in this town
Sooner or later
You hit the ground

Leaving You Behind

Verse 1
I packed my bag, 3 seconds flat, enough's enough
I cannot take another one of your lies
The hallway's dark and cold and lights buzz off
I hope it's bright enough for you to see this goodbye

Chorus
Cause I'm
Leaving you behind
Leaving you behind
What goes around
Comes around you'll find, and I'm
I'm leaving you behind

Verse 2
Your philosophy is all for you and none for me
I walk away cause I just don't wanna fight
You think it's weak and frail, but see you'll fail
When karma hits you like a train in the night

Chorus

Bridge
Enough's enough
Enough's enough
Enough's enough

I Don't Wanna Fight

Verse 1
You want it all
And you've gotten it before
But who's keepin' score?

Verse 2
So I'll take the fall
Next round I'll hit the floor
Cause your crusade
Has lost its cause

Chorus
And I don't wanna fight anymore
No, I don't wanna fight anymore

Verse 3
Enough round twos
Enough "I hate yous"
It's enough
But you want it all

Chorus
