often 01:10
when I'm alone, or lonely which is often more often than not I often wonder how long I'll be forever, or ever, or more I know I haven't been myself but all I can say is I'm not someone else we're just different versions of the same goddamn person often lonely, or lonelier more often than not

only human (free) 02:42
hey you, keep your chin up keep it up, keep it up, keep it up, keep it up, keep it up hey you, wipe the dirt off your knees brush your teeth, wash your face, tie your shoes, sing the blues, then just let them fly away cause you've got too much on your shoulders anyway hey you, keep your chin up keep it up, keep it up, keep it up, keep it up, keep it up hey you, keep your eyes on the clouds they're raining down on you & me and me and you and you and you and you and me we're only human we're only human and we put too much on our shoulders anyway.

I've got pockets to keep all your quarters I've got a wallet to keep all your notes I've got a watch that doesn't run by anybody's clock I've got time, I've got time time to spare I've got blankets to make sure you sleep safe I've got pillows to make sure you dream I've got a heart that doesn't beat for anybody else I've got a love that I don't need to prove to anybody else I've got time, I've got time I've got time, so take your time I've got time, we've got time time to spare.

I think you're neat but I'll never get to know you I think you're sweet but I'll never get to tell you all the good things that you do and the way I like your half-hearted smile but that's just the way it goes I'll never hold your hand as I'm running past the street signs past the pavement and the cars as we make it into ours and all the cool things that we'd do and the way I'd plan an anniversary but that's just the way it goes I skipped a beat the first time that I saw you I figured that we'd meet and that we'd make a good match and all the memories we'd make and all the pictures that I would take but that's not the way it goes. and that's alright, you're just not the one for me. if you don't have time to reply to my letters then you're not the one.
5.
get in my car I'll open the door I'll use up my fuel I'll follow the law turn the radio on I won't look in your eyes I won't reach for your hand I'll just drive through the night can we just drive til it feels alright? we could listen to songs or we could just talk like there's nothing to do in the morning and we will be friends in most perfect of ways I'll just drive right through this empty space can we just drive til it feels alright? the highway tricks me it's lined so pretty it takes me from you and takes me back to

cast off 02:40
my home sailed far away from me I cast her out into the sea and then I swam with weakened might while home sailed swiftly from my sight it was an accident, please forgive me. I'll board a plane to cross this pond and spot the shore my home sits on I'll hike and crawl beyond these lands to find my home and hold it's hand it was an accident, please forgive me it was an accident, so I can go home I've got nowhere else to go I'll cast myself away from here I'll cast myself away, away, away

don't worry 02:30
don't worry, I won't be attending the show I'm sure you won't mind, I know you won't mind don't worry, you won't ever hear my voice I sang a terrible song, did a terrible thing but don't you mind if I mind? don't worry, I will not be in your life I won't come around, I won't be around don't worry, I will not try to be your frend I don't deserve to, I ruined it all but don't you mind if I mind? or that I keep singing these terrible songs? I'll keep singing these terrible songs. they're all I've got for my mind.
8.
I've got too much love, it won't fit in my chest so I bottle it up in jars on my desk and I hang it on walls and I send it with stamps but it keeps on coming back through my skin, past my bones til my heart explodes, "take me home!" I've got too much love, it won't hide in my house so I kicked it out on the curb with the clouds and I bruised up it's knees and I told it to leave but it keeps on running back through my skin, past my bones til my heart explodes, "take me home!" home, where the butterflies land and home, while they're resting their wings and I realize that in comparison I mean nothing take me home.

happy 02:17
do you really love me? or is your vision blurry? is your heart just in a hurry? is your head just in a flurry? well I don't know. I guess that's just part of growing old from now on. well were you really happy? when you were smiling at me? did you wish to keep it secret? did you hope to hide beneath it? well I don't know. I don't know if we'll love each other or someone else. I don't know if I'll see you this year or never again, oh no. well I don't know. so lets just be happy. I just hope that you're happy. I just hope that I'm happy. 'cause I don't know.

dancing 02:34
I know you're just a honeybee, but I love you. I know it seems that you can't fly, but you are. and though at times it stings, I love you. and though at times it stings, I'm a honeybee too. we could ruin these lives any moment. we could end each other or end ourselves. and though at times it stings, I won't and though at times it stings, no I won't. 'cause you remind me of familiar things & places. honeybee, stay with me.
