The Real Blue Hear the gravity calling Keep falling Until it disappears It seems like time's either crawling Or Stalling Always almost outta here Oh, I'm in the wrong place I know I'm in the wrong time I'm keeping up the right pace But on the wrong track Maybe I'll come back When I can be who You see through I gotta breathe soon Going the real blue You gotta feel it too I gotta breathe soon Breathe soon Already broken I'm hoping you're joking Or at least insincere Thoughts underspoken Evoking emotion Never crystal clear I think I've gone the wrong way Been following the wrong signs I crumble through the right day Don't want to come back Less than I left as When I can be who You see through I gotta breathe soon Going the real blue You gotta feel it too I gotta breathe soon Breathe soon We'll be strong From tomorrow on Tonight we both belong To the freefall

The Edge of Summer Following your heart Has taken you allover the place Not as far away As the look on your face Me and my scars We're kind of embarrassing Gone chasing stars Now you're lost and You're wandering Like I'm wandering Then something finally Happens Call in overreaction I might have prayed As we rolled like thunder We just won't recover From the edge of summer We might have cause the spark That ignited this hurricane I think the hardest part Is drifting away You tried to make your mark But hardly even left a stain Gone breaking hearts While you're wondering If you're missing Out on anything Then something finally Happens Call in overreaction I might have prayed As we rolled like thunder We just won't recover From the edge of summer Giving up the ghost Of all we've done Cause this is the most We've ever run Giving up the ghost Of all we've done Cause this is as close As we've ever come Giving up the ghost

Up In Arms You got your wild side I've learned that lesson I've seen those hungry eye You turn some heads When you work the night I kill some time You got your wild side But I got mine That's why I gotta get you Out of that door Or you'll be drafted in my war We're writing tonight like We haven't seen this before You tear me open I leave you broken We'll show 'em all Just how cliche is done When I just run Right past the morning after Straight through the final chapter Tonight we could co-write this story But I know it ends in disaster I know this ends in disaster You got something else in mind Hurts like we're sober Under a neon sign You warm me over I embrace the fire I recite my lines But I got hal a mind To give this a try this time That's why I gotta get outta here before I'm caught up in your storm Our future's so bright A blinding eyesore And it's always something How we're left with nothing When all the words and hurt and worse are done I'll just run Right past the morning after Straight through the final chapter Tonight we could co-write this story But I know it ends in disaster I know this ends in disaster I hate the chase We hit the wall Let's find a place Built on more than just hoping Wide awake We cross our hearts They bend and break Hear the alarm it's deafening How I've been up in arms

Hold On Tight You better hold on tight And maybe close your eyes You can trust my sight I was born to drive And all your life You waited for the light You better hold on tight We're gonna own the night The're gonna know our names It'll be worth the fight We're gonna fan the flames It's such a lonely ride But forever's in sight You better hold on tight And don't let go I still have to fall From the window To figure out which way I'm going And I can't recall Crashing to asphalt Or much of anything at all We're gonna roll the dice We gotta play their game We're running out of nice They're running out of shame It's just a quiet night sky For such a turbulent flight You better hold on tight And don't let go I still have to fall From the window To figure out which way I'm going And I can't recall Crashing to asphalt Or much of anything at all You just gotta keep holding on You better hold on tight And maybe close your eyes You can trust my sight I was born to drive And all your life You waited for tonight You better hold on tight And don't let go

Harder with Armor I've been saved Just not in that good old way Still afraid til I'm ashamed again About something I said when I was ten So I pretend That I'm back home again I'm sinking home again You hunt me Shoulda taken it farther It's harder with armor To disarm her Shoulda seen me waking Shaking in horror The horror No need to defend I just always thought I'd get to call you my old friend Watch me descend My golden throne and then I'm sinking home again You cut me Shoulda taken it farther It's harder with armor To disarm her Shoulda seen me waking Shaking in horror The horror Home again I'm sinking home again You cut me right back down So I back down And I always forget They're never just empty threats You gut me
