Nicki ties up looser ends
goes to work and then comes home again
when you work all day and watch the boss get paid
no nice heart lasts long in this game
there were two ports in the storm
fish him out in his uniform
if you had a nice dream ends justify the means
wipe the fingerprints clean wipe the fingerprints clean
clean
travel light or travelogue
take the time to write the wrong
it was a late late night for a long long drive
and time time time looms over your life
as long as they have teeth they’ll bite
and we danced late into the night
so if he had a nice dream ends justify the means
wipe the fingerprints clean wipe the fingerprints clean

clinging as a heart
i'll follow where you want
loosed in a classroom
you can see me if you try
i really want you to try
do me a favour and just don't
you owe me nothing all you want
do me a favour and just don't (all i want)
is owing you something forever
(50 seconds and counting)
we realized that were broken
it’s prolly time we fix this
it's times like these that we needed
we’re a part of something beginning
i’m a part living machine
my answering phone’s attached to me
how pretty sad it all can be
do me a favour and just don't (all i want)
is owing you something forever
stack this pile of memories
and watch this life we crafted
hands are meant to hold on to
a heart worth grabbing
do me a favour and just don't
you owe me nothing all you want
my stupid phone's attached to me
how pretty sad it all can be

Cherry Seed

the cherry seed from the cherry tree
he took the fruit and gave it to me
it felt so heavy like everything
i’ve come to rely on
like everything you said to me
i’ve come to rely on
as the sea fills up with strange chemicals
we all wanna change but it’s difficult
and we’re mostly water anyway
and i wonder
when it’s over, will it mean a thing?

how it does work for you
can you give me a sign or two
cause everywhere i look there's nowhere for me
and everything i see is already happening
i wish i could have answered all your calls
bothered by the thoughts i fought for so long
i can't remember what you said
patterns all the way up in my head
by the look on your face i trusted
everything you said from that point on
i can hold my breath for a lil longer
i tried to take a step but im falling over
i don't really know how it all works
i've been lying here so i don't get hurt
by the look on your face i trusted
everything you said from that point on

i sleep away the day
just trying to unwind
60 seconds sliding in the breeze
i worry bout it sometimes i find
that it shows
holding drinks to let go
i’m too slow
to follow

No Brainer

crash into a tree
no one belongs here more it's a lie
you said we’ll cash that in a dream
throw my belongings in the fire
i messed up and we slept in the rain
no idea how we make each other’s feel like
it's a no brainer to keep going
it's a no brainer to keep score when you’re winning
it’s awesome how we ride a wave
we ride a wave and wait for a bigger wave until it dies out t’ill it dies out
and the way we run around wasting time
and the way we approach the things we used to do until we freaked out t’ill we freaked out
i messed up and we slept in the rain
no idea how we make each other’s feel like
it's a no brainer to keep going
it's a no brainer to keep score when you’re winning
i messed up and we slept in the rain
no idea how we make each other’s feel
and i can’t hide the overwhelming state that i’m in
when i’m right by your side cause
it's a no brainer to keep going
it's a no brainer to keep score when you’re winning

Motive

keeping my eyes on all things holy
i keep a secret for friends and family
scared by your face on the television
now when you’re talking no one listens
hearing your voice in a movie
saying “that sounds nothing like me”
asking me if i need this
we were keeping an eye on the tv screen
and now there’s no one listening
either way, its my mistake
where do we go from here?
either way, its my mistake
either way, either way, either way…

Prove
02:53

the words in your story got lost in the hallway
i was bent out of shape
i was taken away
by the public interest
your new protest
i stopped talking cause i had nothing to prove
i was surprised to get nine postcards today
tried to keep it a secret
i got carried away
cause the address
lies behind this forecast
i stopped talking cause i had nothing to prove
for all this
through all this
i never guessed that you’d have that interest
i’m talking loud and i’m self aloud for you
by the public interest
your new protest
i stopped talking cause i had nothing to prove
for all this
through all this

Vacant Spirit

vacant spirit haunts around the room it inhabits
have i done anything right by you
you said "i know, i know, i know, it's hard to break a habit"
have i done anything right by you
every breath on this earth breaks down and stops
adding up all the time to watch
everybody got scared; they're slowing down
have i

Talk All Night
04:24

delighted by the things i say
to you today you grace my room
frightened when you show your rage
to me always it’s nothing new
we’ll start by counting the days we don’t fight
you’re used to dropping by the house when you’re high
you’ve been beaten to death in your mind
but i know what you like cause we talk all night
you said you want to watch the world falling apart
from my bedroom
oh be sure that i’ll be holding the walls
no more mistakes like i used to
we’ll start by counting the days we don’t fight
you’re used to dropping by the house when you’re high
you’ve been beaten to death in your mind
but i know what you like cause we talk all night
you sat on the counter i kissed your eyes
short walk
from my bedroom to your hell i won’t lie
i’ve been
dreaming about this day for ages
now
we got what we wanted can we please lay down
