Song Lyrics

Before We Began

It’s always the sweet ones who’ll turn on you
Sour with every stab
How can you expect me not to do
What you’ve already done to yourself?

It’s never really who they are
Nothing’s ever really there
I called this one done
Before it began

He’s just a play-thing, a prop made of wood
Turn his knob watch him pretend
Still I kept trying and trying to break you
Shape you into my man

It’s never really who they are
Nothing’s ever really there
I called this one done
Before it began

You’ve got doubts that make you turn away
Without your doubts, would you really want to stay?
Anyway…

So I took my records and all of my friends
You kept your mamas vase
I left you there with your Kingsize bed
Empty to make your own grave

It’s never really who they are
Nothing’s ever really there
I called this one done
Before it began

It’s never really who they are
Oh yeah…
I called this one done
I called this one done
Oh, I was so done
Before we began



Let You Out of Me

I… I’m so happy
You’re happy, love
You… you impress me
How you switch between on and off

I’m not holding you down, your hands aren’t tied
I’m not waiting around for you to change your mind
Don’t think you got this figured out..cuz you don’t!

Always the same
As the last train I jumped
Strange, better days
Have flown my way
Since I let you out
Let you out …of me.

You say I hold you
Gone over like a lead balloon
I weigh you down
Oh sleepless Blue Eyes
Babe it’ s no surprise
You can’t handle love

I’m not holding you down, your hands aren’t tied
I’m not waiting around for you to change your mind
Don’t think you got me figured out..cuz you don’t!

Always the same
As the last train I jumped
Strange, better days
Have flown my way
Since I let you out
Let you out of me.



Just Try

Wish I had a light bright enough to bring you to the other side
Given up on acting tough, I’m not trying to save you from your mind…
Not this time.

Maybe this time next week, you’ll bottom out
On stuffing it all inside
Maybe someday soon you’ll figure it out
You’re enough, when you just try

Saw you there on Isolation Street
Duck behind the garbage truck
You’re luck never turned on you, but somehow you fucked it up

Maybe this time next week, you’ll have enough
On fronting the perfect lie
Maybe someday soon you’ll figure it out
You’re enough, when you just try
You’re enough, when you just try

String along behind your new best friend
Convince yourself it’s a free ride.
You keep changing your name again
As if that’s gonna change what’s inside

Maybe this time next week you’ll bottom out
On stuffing it all inside
Maybe someday soon you’ll figure it out
You’re enough, when you just try
It’s enough, when you just try
Girl you’re enough, when you just try


Apricot

Baby, I’m the astronaut
Who dreams of floating your galaxy
I can’t believe you’d want me to

Meet me at the restaurant
I promise not to show up late
I’ll be the girl looking out for you

And you can tell the world I love you
Cause it’s the only thing I know for sure
And when the danger hits too close to home
I’ll protect your fragile heart

Baby, I’m the apricot
Who dreams of growing on your tree
I can’t imagine you’d want me still

Meet me in the parking lot
We’ll blast the Suby radio
All our demons sure to disappear

And you can tell the world I love you
Cause it’s the only thing I know for sure
And when the danger gets too close to home
I’ll protect your fragile heart

And you can tell the world I love you
Cause it’s the only thing I know
And when the danger gets too close to home
I’ll protect your fragile heart
