1.Throw It All Away

作詞:Brandi Carlile、Tim Hanseroth

When you're near me I have no fear
When I'm untrue you see right through me
You know me as deep as the sea goes
Calm my head whenever a storm blows

When the stars, and the moon,
and the sky fall through

I'd throw them all away when I'm hollow
Deep as the sea goes
All I know is I would
Throw them all away, away

So in my restless hour I'm holding
Words you say that lay my soul to sleep
I dream of buildings that burn
The sky turns black, I toss and turn

When the stars, and the moon,
and the sky fall through

I'd throw them all away when I'm hollow
Deep as the sea goes
All I know is I would
Throw them all away, away

This love branches out like an oak tree
Reach for the sky and roots to the sea
So when you're shaken down and broken
Find your peace of mind in knowing

I'd throw them all away when I'm hollow
Deep as the sea goes
All I know is I would
Throw them all away when I'm hollow
Deep as the sea goes
All I know is I would
Throw them all away, away


2.Fall Apart Again

Long is the day, take it away
Hold it up and you don't let it fall
Cause devils play, was yesterday
And I don't care about that at all

I just smile, once in a while
Cause I don't want the lines on my face
I sit right here, holding the years
And I count all the stars in space

You fall apart again and you can find a friend
Don't turn to someone else cause they won't understand...

Self respect, goes unexpressed
I don't dream cause I cannot sleep
And I think the world of myself
But the world doesn't think much of me
As long as the day is full of time,
there will always be room for your hand in mine

You fall apart again and you can't find a friend
Don't turn to someone else cause they won't understand
I don't wanna to hear
You say that you miss yesterday
If you don't like what you see
That means nothing to me

No one's home I'm alone with my music and my tv
And I still say that yesterday is best when left to sleep...

You fall apart again and you can't find a friend
Don't turn to someone else cause they won't understand
I don't wanna to hear
You say that you miss yesterday
If you don't like what you see
That means nothing to me

That means nothing to me


3.Eye Of The Needle

作詞:Brandi Carlile


4.Tragedy

作詞:Brandi Carlile

Sorry, I'm only human
You know me
Grown up
Oh no guess again

My days, always
Dry up and blow away
Well sometimes
I could do that too
But make no mistake

When you need a friend
Hey you could count on anyone
But you know I'll defend
The tragedy that we knew as
The end

Progress, then changing
Growing, then giving up
Somehow, we're never quite prepared
But I understand that

When you need a friend
Hey you could count on anyone
But you know I'll defend
The tragedy that we knew as
The end
Oh, yeah

Taking you with me would be like
Taking all of your money to the grave
It does no good, to anyone, especially
The one you're trying to save
But it's so hard not to save

And when you need a friend
Hey you could count on anyone
But you know I'll defend
The tragedy that we knew as
The end


5.Shadow On The Wall

作詞:Brandi Carlile、Phil Hanseroth、Tim Hanseroth

Gone
It's hard for me to see when I'm wrong
It's hard for me to weep when I'm strong
But I could never sleep when you're gone
Oh but still
If you were gonna crucify me
I wouldn't want nobody to see
'Cause you could kick me hard when I'm down
Down, down, down

I don't want wanna be
Nobody's fool
I've played that part so many times before
How long to be
A shadow on the wall
I will make no sound at all
And when the sun goes down
The shadow on the wall
It cannot be seen at all
At all

Over it
Hey it's not that you would mess with my head
I believe that you believe what you said
You think you know me best and you care
But that's not fair!
'Cause I don't really want to be safe
It must have been the way I was raised
Sleep with one eye open I say
Hey hey hey

I don't wanna be
Nobody's fool
I've played that part so many times before
How long to be
A shadow on the wall
I will make no sound at all
And when the sun goes down
The shadow on the wall
It cannot be seen at all
At all

Oh
How long to be
A shadow on the wall
I would make no sound at all
At all
