1.White Fences

My heart is numb
The feeling that I get from
The way you shake your voice
And curse this bitter love
And oh, it's cold
Living in a fallen home
We were just kids back then
Too scared to be alone

You leave me in the dark
Recounting all my sins
You put words in my mouth
But who is gonna mend
These white fences
Oh, it's cold
Living in a fallen home
We were just kids back then
Too scared to be alone
Oh, I said oh, the fight
My legs are unsteadied by
The way you close your eyes
I wish we could hit rewind

You leave me in the dark
Recounting all my sins
You put words in my mouth
But who is gonna mend
These white fences

My heart is numb
The feeling that I get from
The way you shake your voice
And curse this bitter love
And, oh, the fight
My legs are unsteadied by
The way you close your eyes
I wish we could hit rewind

You leave me in the dark
Recounting all my sins
You put words in my mouth
But who is gonna mend
These white fences


2.Happy If You Could Demo

There was a ghost strung up and all my closets thin
Changing the way I look but never the mood I'm in
Staring down eyes
Clenching this fist
Wearing these birds in
Biting an old war now
We never can win again

Why oh why don't people get along
Jumpin' out their office window
Just before the fire was gone
And I oh I got anger in my blood
Set the clock to start it over
Would you be happy if you could?

When you're the softest heart
Every wall you build up's gonna cave back in
You're staring down eyes
Clenching these fists
Wearing these birds in
You're fighting an old war now
You never can win again

Why oh why don't people get along
Jumpin' out their office window
Just before the fire was gone
And I oh I got anger in my blood
Set the clock to start it over
Would I be happy if I could?
Oh..

Why oh why don't people get along
Jumpin' out their office window
Just before the fire was gone
And I oh I got anger in my blood
Set the clock to start it over
Would you be happy if you could?
Set the clock to start it over,
Would you be happy, would you be happy if you could?


3.The Outsiders

Shortfalls and little sins
Close calls where no one wins
Stand tall but running thin
I'm wearing thin
Oh, why are we keeping score?

'Cause if you're not laughing
Who is laughing now?
I've been wondering if we start sinking
Could we stand our ground?
And through everything we've learned
We've finally come to terms
We are the outsiders
We are the outsiders

I'm not leaving without a fight
I've got my holster around my side
Just 'cause I'm wrong it don't make you right
No, you ain't right
Oh, why are we keeping score?

'Cause if you're not laughing
Who is laughing now?
I've been wondering if we start sinking
Could we stand our ground?
And through everything we've learned
We've finally come to terms
We are the outsiders
We are the outsiders
We are the outsiders

On the outside, you're free to roam
On the outside, we've found a home
On the outside, there's more to see
On the outside, we choose to be


4.Let Us Love Live From Washington DC - 04/21/12

Verse1:
We were born to embrace not accept it,
We were given nothing more until we kept it,
As the color of our boots keep fading,
Live a life that we hate without saying,
Who would listen to the cries of a poor man,
Never done nothing how can we be something,
Every heart has an hour of existance,
Every breath brings a chance for redemption,
If somehow we could wake up.

Chorus:
Let us love, like we were children,
Make us feel, like we're still living,
In a world I know is burning to the ground.
It is time to beat the system,
Live this life like we can't miss it,
In a world I know is burning to the ground.

Verse2:
In the crowd of the dead and dissapointed,
We're ashamed giving up on what we wanted,
Take a chance on a long shot this time,
Aren't we all just at least worth another try,
I'm a king in the land of abuses,
Under my law the promise of excuses,
Whose to win if we know that it's not fair,
Who would fight when it seems that no one cares,
If somehow we could wake up!

Chorus:

Bridge:
It's hard to stay here but where do we go?
I know I can't feel it anymore,
It's true, time is wearing us down,
Before mother and brother will wait,
Waiting for our ways to change.

Chorus:

Bridge2:
We are hurtin' on the road behind you,
Let the wind go with you 'till the morning come,
Yeah your sorrow, no it can't save you,
It won't answer, for what you've done.


5.More Time Live From Knoxville, TN - 03/01/12

I promised you the world again
Everything within my hands
All the riches one could dream
They will come from me

I hoped that you could understand
That this is not what I had planned
Please don't worry now
It will turn around

Cause I need more time
Just a few more months and we'll be fine
So say what's on your mind
Cause I can't figure out just what's inside

I hoped that you could understand
That this is not what I had planned
Please don't worry now
It will turn around

Cause I need more time
Just a few more months and we'll be fine
So say what's on your mind
Cause I can't figure out just what's inside
So say alright
Cause I know we can make it if we try
Cause I need more time
Just a few more months and we'll be fine

We're off to new lands
So hold on to my hands
It's gonna be alright
It's a whole lot brighter
So stand by the fire
It's gonna be alright
Yeah, the road gets harder
But it's not much farther
It's gonna be alright
You know that it ain't easy
Please believe me
It's gonna be alright

Please don't worry now
It will turn around

Cause I need more time
Just a few more months and we'll be fine
So say what's on your mind
Cause I can't figure out just what's inside
So say alright
Cause I know we can make it if we try
Cause I need more time
Just a few more months and we'll be fine
