Wish You Were Here
would you stay for one night?
if i didn't come home?
the end of a big fight
doesn't matter anymore
the point in my midlife
situation stands
but hours pass like years
wish you were here
wish you were here
did i open an old wound?
is there something i should know?
if it's all ending so soon
how could i possibly let go?
comes to a head

Walking On A Wire
i'm the one you've been hanging 'round
just stop hearing any sound
found you face down on the ground
found a friend never could be found
i've been waiting around
systems failing now
on your honor so i hear
it's never been your fault you swear
is the union based on fear?
tenement of tears
i've been waiting
systems failing
walking on a wire on the ground
is this all your world tonight?
is this all your world tonight?
have to tell a lie
to avoid a brutal fight
i've been waiting
systems failing
walking on a wire on the ground

Grunge Pig
I didn't take that blow to heart
You couldn't tear our home apart
You anything you wanted everything
I don't have brusies I can show
Scars from abuse without a blow
You anything you wanted everything
You don't owe anything to me
I didn't take that blow to heart
You couldn't tear our home apart
You anything you wanted everything
You don't owe anything to me
But don't expect me not to live
I ask each year
Why am I here
Begging you please
Remembering

Hannah Hold On
I never asked to be sorry
If its over its over for sure
I don't regret that I didn't want to
Remember what all this was for
So this is all we can do
What news is in store
How come starting over
Would be frowned on anymore
Hannah hold on
Hannah hold on
Its all been said
Its all been done
I never witnessed bitter like this
I think I've been shot in cold blood
You won't admit it and I won't be around
Just so I hear the applause

Fall From Grace
it rains and pours in twos
i wonder if i'll come home
no strength left to battle you
run to the open arms
of anyone
of anyone
i'm watching you fall from grace
breaking a heart of gold
don't ever try saving face
run with your heart of stone
it rains and pours in twos
i wonder if i'll come home
no strength left to battle you
run to the open arms
of anyone
of anyone
i'm watching you fall from grace
breaking a heart of gold
don't ever try saving face
run with your heart of stone

High As The Moon
i built an altar for you
out of polaroids and pins
on the wall of my room
i don't know what to do
waiting for you
should be a sin
out of south station
builds me up
it's all i can do
high as the moon
waiting for you
to come back to my room
i built an altar for you
hope you come around
those lead to my house
i had a question for you
telling the truth
throws at the sound
outside a station
builds me up

All That I Know
All we are
Is part
Of everything
It's out of our control
And I'll say
All you need to know
Is anything
That's happening is happening
All the ships in the ocean
Outside my window
Under the moon
All the lights in the harbour
Keep me from sleeping
Keep me from dreaming
Oh no
All that I know

Stay Gone
I'll fawn over photographs
That you never would get to see
Swallow your own neglect
With your miserable company
Your daughter forgot her memories
Your daughter forgot her
Remember these
I'm over the precedent
Of a false security
No matter how I come back
You can never be proud of me
It's too long to stay gone
It's too long to stay gone
[Chorus]
I don't regret what words were said-
Deserved respect you never had
