The Man

Your face is so close I can't fathom you
And why would I want to
A mystery that sells itself
Piece by piece I unravel you
Or well at least I try to
Your heart is in my chest and still you make so little sense
Yeah its true that I was young enough to go
Well it was true that I was old enough to know
That people may bend but they may only bend so far
Darling I know that I fell short but its a start
If I drown let me be
Save yourself but not for me
Salt and cracks shall be my home
Facing west fill your chest
Hold your own hand now mine's at rest
And you say this one is serious
This could be serious
True that I was young enough to go
Well it was true that I was old enough to know
That people may bend but they may only bend so far
Darling I know that I fell short but its a start
Cause when I hear those words drifting out of your mouth
I forget what I was so bitter about
I may come undone but it's helping me grow
Help me be the man my old man won't know
Cause when I hear those words drifting out of your mouth
I forget what I was so bitter about
I may come undone but it's helping me grow
Help me be the man
Help me be the man
Help me be the man my old man won't know
Help me be the man
Help me be the man, the man, the man
Help me be the man my old man
The man my old man won't know

Photographs

Took a breath and pushed away
Time moves slowly when I fall
And I fall
Deeper than my love for you
With a step I pushed away
Time moves slowly when I'm gone
And I'm gone
Far more often than I'd care to admit
Posing in the photographs
Oh those photographs so clear yet still uncertain
Oh the lines yet drawn were swept under the curtain
And if all it takes is one mistake to open
Maybe lines yet drawn were better off unspoken
Oh when I leave I'm gone
Though I believe I'm wrong
When I leave I'm gone
Though I believe I'm wrong
Far more often than I'd care to admit
Posing in the photographs again
Posing in the photographs
Oh those photographs so clear yet still uncertain
Oh the lines yet drawn were better off unspoken
And if all it takes is one mistake to open
Maybe lines yet drawn were better off unspoken

What The Stars Hold

Oh those people on the other side can't decide
What the stars hold for you and I
Oh those people on the other side can't decide
What the stars hold for you and I
What's in a face
What's in a name
What's in a love that was destined to failed
Get ready to jump
Get ready to bail
Cause the way things are going we're bound to derail
But it's not your fault
And it isn't me
This won't be easy
But it has to be
Oh no don't stay here tonight
I've got a feeling
And it's mighty strong
That these dirty dealings
Can do nothing but harm
In the long run
Oh those people on the other side can't decide
What the stars hold for you and I
Oh those people on the other side can't decide
What the stars hold for you and I
