Flashes 04:01
lyrics

Time Passes quicker everyday So much of it looks the same Steady as an april rain This house Can’t keep the water out Treading won’t part the clouds There’s no two ways around it What a mystery I’ll look a thousand times but I might never see Passing over everything in front of me The air I breathe Feels so out of reach What a mystery Dew Dancing off a blade of grass Evaporate into the past Never get the moment back I hear The sound of a robin song Has she been there all along Will she be there when I’m gone What a mystery I’ll look a thousand times but I might never see Passing over everything in front of me The air I breathe Feels so out of reach What a mystery I’m watching as the present passes Saving moments like their rationed See the life I’ve lived in flashes Never get the moment back it’s A mystery I’ll look a thousand times but I might never see Passing over everything in front of me The air I breathe Feels so out of reach What a mystery

Lottery 03:35
lyrics

A flower in the wind A certain innocence You’re in my mind again Accidental bliss Ideas in my head I’m reaching for the thread They all just ricochet Things that I can’t explain All the stars collide The two of us together We make something bigger I could’ve let you be a perfect stranger I could’ve left all of this up to wonder Looks like fate has fallen in my favor Cuz I won the lottery with you Oh it’s a silly thing The way you always bring A smile to my face A rushing through my veins Thank God you always knew Thank God I followed through If it were not for you I could’ve ended up a perfect stranger You could’ve let me leave this up to wonder Looks like fate has fallen in my favor I won the lottery with you (I go well with you Be myself with you Like I always knew I’m a fool for you) Oooh You know that I’m the lucky one Oooh Sit and watch the setting sun Oooh I’ll be here when the day is done When the day is done We could’ve ended up as perfect strangers We could’ve left all of this up to wonder Looks like fate has fallen in our favor We won the lottery oooh

Dying Wish 03:41
lyrics

If I had a dying wish I wouldn't know where to begin I think about the consequence Heavy as a crucifix I hope it doesn’t come to pass I’m not ready where I’m at I wanna give you all I have But I have yet to do that I’m not worried where I’m going I just wanna leave with knowing That when I go, I left something behind Cause when I slow the constant motion I see the little moments Are the ones where I feel most alive If we’re living on borrowed time You give me yours I’ll give you mine You know what you mean to me But do you know how deep You can be my enemy And the rock where I can lean You give me a kind of devotion That cracks my guarded heart wide open You have always seen me Really seen me I’m not worried where I’m going I just wanna leave with knowing That when I go, I left something behind Cause when I slow the constant motion I see the little moments Are the ones where I feel most alive If we’re living on borrowed time You give me yours I’ll give you mine If I had a dying wish I hope I wouldn’t need it You’d see it in the way I lived In the way I lived

Tomorrow 04:26
lyrics
buy track
Flowers left on my front porch Singing Brandi doing chores Catch my eye across the room Laugh at how I look at you Like a movie that I’ve often seen But thought was just a distant dream You have me in disbelief That someone could be made for me Tomorrow, tomorrow Never crossed my mind Tomorrow, tomorrow Always passed me by Started off as just a glimmer Now I see the bigger picture Somehow you make me consider Tomorrow Did I know you in another life Cuz your heart fits so well with mine It’s how you seem to look at me And see something that I don’t see Softly, slowly How you know me Love had never left my lips But love had never been like this Tomorrow, tomorrow Never crossed my mind Tomorrow, tomorrow Always passed me by Started off as just a glimmer Now I see the bigger picture Somehow you make me consider Tomorrow You love me So freely You make me dream Forever And after You make me dream Started off as just a glimmer Now I see the bigger picture Somehow you make me consider Tomorrow

Architect 03:13
lyrics

You say it’s your game It’s your prerogative Make me feel small or nothing at all Then be the optimist You fed me a taste Of what you had to give I learned to savor your kind of danger I loved the thrill of it I’m gonna burn it down I’m gonna burn it down And if you want out You’ve gotta beg now I’ll make you so proud Show you I know how I’m your machine I’m your sedative I’m what you long for I’m what you run from I’m what you can’t forget You laid the bricks Right on my shoulder An architect Of all my torture I’m gonna burn it down I’m gonna burn it down And if you want out You’ve gotta beg now I’ll make you so proud Show you I know how I’m not afraid now You need my escape route So say it out loud Maybe I’ll allow it Oh my God I almost believed in What you said I was in your weakness Oh my God I cannot believe it Oh my God I cannot believe it I’m not afraid now You need my escape route So say it out loud Maybe I’ll allow it

Alright 03:59
lyrics
buy track
Sell me a dream and I’ll keep on believing Make it all seem like there’s some kind of reason That makes it make sense, makes it all okay Cuz right now I’m crumbling under the weight I know that I’ll get where I’m longing to go And it’s all gonna be alright Alright, alright, alright Am I saving up hope or just wasting my time Cuz I’m going broke but my money’s just fine What could I find drawing lines in the sand An outline of me or who I really am I know I’m becoming who I’m meant to be And it’s only a matter of time So I’ll be alright, alright, alright La di da di… Lately I know I’ve been thinking too much Can’t tell if it’s real or if I’m out of touch Don’t know if all this is overrated Or maybe I’m just overcomplicating What it all means to be somebody When we’re all buying into a dream Oh we’re all gonna wake up and find things to take up The moments that make up our lives And we’ll all be alright, alright, alright La di da di…
