Thunder and Lightning
03:36

I’ve wasted my life
Chasing the heartache
Can I start over?
Be wild like my namesake
I’d say I’m going nowhere
But I’ve already arrived
Cause it’s so easy to say
Last night was the last time
Been taught the road to nightmares
Is paved with my desires
But I want what I want
And I want, want it
Not looking for sparks
I’m looking for thunder and lightning
Give me all of the wild
Give me something a little bit frightening
Give me pain, give me life
Give me wrong, give me right
I’m not looking for a spark
I’m looking for thunder and lightning
If I think too much
I get lost in it
I live more in dreams
Than I do awake
I wanna live for a living
Make the wild my scene
Go get lost and I’ll stay there
Make the new my routine
That’s life, that’s living
I’m gonna make new mistakes
Gonna find that thunder and lightning

Civil
03:24

We were inseparable
The old story goes
We were young
We were kids
With something special
That could go the distance
We were invincible
So inconceivable
First sight that first night
My condolences to all the dreams I left to die
With every step I took you followed
You followed me down
Sometimes you fall so hard
You break when you hit the ground
We were in love and now we’re civil
Yeah the world fell apart as it does
Who’d have thought we’d succumb
Like the rest
We were everything and more
Now we’re civil
How do you go from everyday ‘till the end
To this is it, darling, I may never see you again
Thought I saw every possibility
I didn’t see this
If you’ve found yourself
In somebody else
Then you’re not yourself
You’re somebody else

Be Fine
03:06
|

On and on it seems to go
On and on till there’s no tomorrow
Yesterday I made mistakes
I’m sure today will be the same
I know that I should go
I know that I must try
I know that I might fail
But I know that I—
I just need reminding
Cause I spend everyday waiting for the sky to fall
I just need reminding
So that I know I’ll be fine
On and on it seems to go
I may forget for an hour or so
Tomorrow’s just the past in waiting
Why bother even changing
I know that I won’t go
I don’t know if I’ll try
I know I will fail
I just hope I—

The Wild
03:53
|

Slow down
The sweat it only cools so much
Fevered
You’re hot to the touch
What happens to us when we are in the wild
Feral
We’ve lost ourselves
Tangled
But found each other
So how about you and I get lost for a while
Because forever exists when we are in the wild
This is what it’s like to forget about life
We’ve gone wild
Stay quiet
We wouldn’t want to be found
Don’t fear
Just lay your body down
Quiver
Shake Shake Shake
Shiver
Shake Shake Shake

Lonely Walks
03:51
|
|||
I’m an open book
But who the hell reads these days
People need a good hook
If you want em to look your way
That’s why I breathed in what you breathed out
And I stood tall when you were on the lookout
Lonely walks have the best soundtracks
The thoughts don’t follow if I walk real fast
Then I hear
“When it hurts you'll know it's the right thing”
You’re goddamn right I can still feel the sting
I’m not saying this is love
I’m just saying I haven’t had enough
But life wouldn’t have it
No not just yet
So it tore us apart
And now we’re stuck to dream
About everything
We could have been
Count my lonely nights and I lose track
Count em like sheep, insomniac
But distance and time breed distance in time
We said our goodbyes but you never left my mind
Start to feel better like life’s on track
But just one word and I’m brought right back
To those summer nights in my bed
We should’ve been asleep but we share our dreams instead

I was broken
You were broken too
We fit together
You made me feel brand new
We were lovers
We did what lovers do
But I was guarded
I just wanted to look cool
But the truth is
All my good moods are fragile like glass
I fear the future, resent the past
When I feel like I can’t touch the ground
You can’t talk me down
You weren’t supposed to know me like this
You make my heart ache in a good way
It makes my heart break for you to see me this way
I must confess, I am a mess
I’m doing my best, but it gets me nowhere
You weren’t supposed to know me like this
I’m a coward
I did what cowards do
Kept my heart out of reach
And dangled it in front of you
But the truth is
I’m afraid to fall cause I’m scared it won’t last
So I put up a wall that you can’t get passed
But you found a way, you made a crack
You should know there’s no going back

Might Be
03:22

The last one didn't convey
What I wanted to say
I know we left things a mess
But I've got nothing to confess
Like I still want this, cause I promise I don’t
You were a big part of my life
I just thought it might be
I thought it might be nice
I wanna go somewhere
I kinda wanna see you there
I thought it might be
When I walk them streets at night
I still see your face in every passerby
I know that the moment has passed
But I still think about it anyway
I know I’m such a cliche
But I still think about it every day

Whose Shirt
03:10
|
|||
Every night I try to fall asleep
Trying not to think, just let it be
Just waiting for the phone to finally ring
I can’t stop wondering
Whose shirt your in
My dusk is you dawn
At least that’s how it feels
Now that you’re gone
Well this isn’t new to me
But I think that’s why I can’t sleep
I’ve got that gold rush lust
Adventurous heart, a restless love
But I got so scared that I just gave up
We were a lesson in appreciation
I was a cancer of your ambition
The wrong choice before the right decision
You’re better off
Every night I try to fall asleep
Trying not to think, just let it be
Dreaming of all we could’ve been
I can’t stop wondering
Whose shirt your in

TV Show

Get a grip
It ain’t love if you gotta question it
Call it quits
If you ain’t getting back what you're putting in
Stop thinking
And start living
Gotta learn to give up
If it doesn’t feel right
But I get lost in the Hollywood romance
I imagine is my life
Dramatics, theatrics
Make a good episode but
Maybe I don’t want to live a life
That would make a good TV show
I’ll be the first to admit
I’ve been a bit of a hypocrite
But let’s not pretend
You had no fault in it
My heart broke
When I saw the mirrors through the smoke
You say it’ not an act
But you put on quite a show
At least I was honest
At least I tried
I don’t wanna live my life like this

This Side of Midnight
04:21
|

I never learned to give up
When it didn’t feel right
Be better, boy just be better
Be better first, then you’ll be fine
Crossed the line just to get stuck
On this side of midnight
I never thought I’d see this side
Of 27 I’m still alive
I have wasted my life, it’s true
Chased the heartache for years and for who?
Cause you’ve gone and found yourself
Found yourself with no one else
What happens to us on this side of midnight?
Whatever keeps you alive
Whatever
Whatever
All I know is this is all I know
A lesson in letting go
I don’t want to be alone
On this side of midnight
This side of midnight
This side of midnight
Whatever keeps you alive
On this side of midnight
Eighteen, Nineteen
I came so close to letting go
And some days I still don’t know
I never thought I’d get this far
Whatever keeps you alive
On this side of midnight
Cause eighteen, nineteen me
Would hate eighteen, nineteen me
I’m an open book
But you weren’t supposed to know me till the
Thunder and Lightning
I just thought I might be….
Dreaming of what could’ve been
On this side of midnight
