We stare at each other
Across the table
Our plates are full
We try to talk while we're still able
But the wine in the glass
Is sinking fast
And words right now
Would not be for the best
And outside the wind
Hits from the west
And here comes the weather
We say we're in love
Almost every day
We laugh out loud
When we talk this way
But the clock on the wall
Is ticking hard
And just above the wind
We hear the sound of passing cars
Driving like the rain
About to fall from afar
And here comes the weather
And I watch as the sky
Turns from blue to gray
And I try to hang on
To what we have to save
But I'm losing my grip
I'm losing my way
I'm losing you
And I want you to stay
We stare at each other
Across the table
Drops of rain
Hit the glass like little nails
And outside the wind has become a gale
And here comes the weather
Track Name: Demons & Saints (pre-release)
DEMONS & SAINTS
My future was once wide open
I had my plans, I had my dreams
I was not yet broken
I thought I had whatever I could need
But life changes
Throws you curves
Asks you to live
For better or for worse
You make mistakes
You do some things wrong
You try to turn back
But you're too far gone
And you've got...
(CHORUS)
Too many demons and too few saints
To count your blessings or ever cut bait
I know, I know they say it’s never too late
But I've got too many demons and too few saints
And I remember when I was new
I had my faith, my beliefs
I told lies I thought were true
Some days I even felt at peace
But life changes
You lose your guide
You want so much
You're never satisfied
You try to stop
You try to turn back
But you're too far down
The wrong path
And you've got...
CHORUS > SOLO
And still life changes
Throws you curves
Asks you to live
For better or for worse
It takes a toll
Little by little
Before you know it
Rome burns while you fiddle
And you've got...
Track Name: Love & Hate (pre-release)
Love and Hate
So this is how it's going to be?
Me staring at you, you staring at me
A truce in our war of a words
A war I don't think either one of us heard
And outside there's a moon and wind
I walk through the park to where the light ends
I think about things I don't understand
And it's all I can do to return again
But it's just love and hate
Pushing and pulling like two soul mates
It's just love and hate
They live inside everybody's state
Of mind
And pride it goes before the fall
We're burning bridges, we're building walls
We're both trying way too hard to win
We don't even care what we win
And it's love and hate
Pushing and pulling like two soul mates
It's just love and hate
They live inside everybody's state
Of mind
And on the steps I take in the city
The lights are on but nothing is pretty
The air is clear, the stars look gold
The wind comes up and it's filled with cold
And the thought runs through my head
This could be how everything ends
Sitting on steps under starry skies
Wondering how best to say goodbye
But it's just love and hate
Pushing and pulling like two soul mates
It's just love and hate
And if you're feeling one, the other just waits
And it's love and hate
They live inside everybody's state
Of mind
Track Name: Yo Yo (pre-release)
Yo Yo
Life picks me up
Then drops me down
And I don't see any method to the madness
I try to be tough
I try to act like a clown
I try to keep from falling back into sadness
I take long walks
I try to meditate
And I talk and talk
But even drugs can't change my state (of mind)
I am like a yo-yo
Rise and fall
I'm just a yo-yo
I don't hold the string
I am like a yo-yo
Rise and fall
I'm just like a yo-yo
And these ups and downs make the world spin around me
Life gives me hope
Then leaves me twisting in the wind
And I can't see the rhyme or the reason
I try to cope
I try never to give in
But it's like trying to fight a change of seasons
And I play my guitar
I call a friend
I take a drive in the car
But the ups and downs they never end (for me)
And I walk the dog
And I sleep all morning long
I make things look alright even when they're all wrong
'Cause I know the tricks
Just like a childhood song
So rock me baby
Because there's something wrong (with me)
