I Should Be Born: Lyrics Labels warning to use with permission Look inside of me: conflicts, conditions Don't lose sight of the lessons you're given No sign or prescription can make you young again All looks well if you just know the outside Hide the tears that get shed in the nighttime Don't lose sight of the map and the seasons Let go of conditions that steal your mind away Living on an island Take your time when Walking on the water 'Cause now we're running from our homes One side of me knows where the path went I could lead but I'm too inconsistent Don't lose sight of the eyes that you're given No conflicts, conditions can take your sight away Living on an island Take your time when Walking on the water 'Cause now we're running from our homes You were drowning when you should have flown I've been dying when I should be born I should be born If you struggle in logic and feeling Generational gaps are revealing Don't lose sight of the ones who have loved you You're only as strong as the love that built you
2.	Heading For Nowhere 04:00	lyrics	buy track
Heading For Nowhere: Lyrics I'm looking for something that I didn't notice was gone Weeks, maybe months just went by without anything wrong Now I'm aware I can't stop the repeating alarm Here in this place I get peace, I get war, I get on Standing at the station Falling out of line Missing my connection Asking for the time End at the beginning Back onto the street Always chasing something Even in our sleep (We got the time) Heading for nowhere I'm ready for something I finally noticed was gone Head to the place where I go when I know what went wrong Moments repeat, colors change to the beat of a song Counting the days I get by and the days I get on End at the beginning Back onto the street Always chasing something Even in our sleep (We got the time) Heading for nowhere Standing at the station Looking at the map Stopping for a moment Just before the crash
3.	Weathervanes (In The Way) 04:36	lyrics	buy track
Weathervanes (In the Way): Lyrics Buildings scrape at the skyline Cranes spin round like weathervanes You and I shrug our shoulders Who are we to complain If we make this one thing To replace that something Don't it just stand up there In the way Easy ways to remember You and I keep the pace Photographs fall off magnets Worn out pages using space When we take this something To escape that something Don't it just end up there In the way If we make this one thing To replace that something Will it make that something Meaningless I remember the road and the destination (Running down to the edge of the sea) You said you'd look for all the places your love went When we take this something Rearrange that something Don't it just stand up there In the way If we make this one thing To replace that something Don't it just stand up In the way

No Nations: Lyrics We're going to let you in this once Let you right up to the front We're going to spin you 'til you're spun Then put you right back where you came from In the season of the gun We'll let you pull the trigger, son You will see what you have done Then put you right back where you came from No nations Trade places
5.	Sure Sign 03:31	lyrics	buy track
Sure Sign: Lyrics Contact with a friend A long time but it's never quite the same Tongue tied in my bed Laid out for another way to mend Sure sign You shouldn't go All night awake instead Legs twitch as the beating wings unbend Thoughts hide in hardened dens Eyes wide as they surface seeking ends Sure sign You shouldn't go Our love It goes Eyes closed You know Inside modern man A bassline from a ceiling in my head Sunrise, flaming red It all stops but they never tell you when Sure Sign You should not go
6.	Time Will Remember 04:20	lyrics	buy track
Time Will Remember: Lyrics Deer in the headlights And we walk in the clouds Cold wars on hot nights And we walk through the clouds In the evening Time will remember Bird on the wind as We walk through the crowd Tree full of sadness We're here on the ground In the evening (All's well) Time will remember
7.	Fully Shed 05:10	lyrics	buy track
Fully Shed: Lyrics He gets mad when I get drunk Walk around town like a loaded gun But now I'm fully shed And I'm back in bed Highschool kids get stoned Falling in and out of love We were playing dead We were upset Ah, you should let me go just a little bit I'm coming home in just a little bit Standing at the edge of the things I've done Push me off and wake the sun Am I fully shed Are we there yet? Ah, you should let me go just a little bit I'm coming home in just a little bit I wanna know just a little bit I'm gonna let in show and be done with it
8.	Always A First Time 03:02	lyrics	buy track
Always A First Time: Lyrics Leaving on the morning Miles off from the shore Feeling something started But I never had enough ooohhh Swimming in a daydream Spinning on the floor You said you were waiting While I'm still making nothing into More and more and more ooohhh Take it easy on yourself There is always a first time Listen to yourself There is always a first time
9.	It's A Funny Thing 04:33	lyrics	buy track
It's A Funny Thing: Lyrics It's a funny thing When you lose your faith In a grand design Like a flickering On a backlit screen Shadowed thoughts arrive Starlight In the dead of night Takes the towers down Sure sign That the plan devised Came from nothing known These nights fall through glass Her eyes make the man Trees lean Over empty streets As the power goes No sign Of a pearl inside Deals a crushing blow You realize That the sunny side Made the shadows cold Pedals fold Waiting for the rise Of another sky These nights fall through glass Her eyes make the man Said I won't look back Starlight in the dead of night Eyes wide in the dead of night These nights fall through glass Her eyes make the man Said I won't look back These eyes too will pass
10.	Tired Of The Comfort 06:51	lyrics	buy track
Tired Of The Comfort: Lyrics Are you tired Of the comfort? Killed by kindness Small and modern Danger in the sky What a world have I? Is the violence Built for transport? Are you tired Of the comfort? Danger in the signs Danger in the lines Danger in the minds Wonder, wonder why Danger in the sky We buy them there We buy them where We buy them there
