Thunder and Lightning 03:36
lyrics
buy track
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
lyrics
buy track
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
lyrics

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
lyrics
buy track
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
lyrics
buy track
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

Like This 04:01
lyrics
buy track
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
lyrics
buy track
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
lyrics
buy track
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 02:51
lyrics
buy track
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
lyrics
buy track
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
