LYRICS
1. For Now
Waking up alone cause I choose to these days
I'm rolling up cause it feels better this way
and the clock by the door feels older now
and the time on that clock moves slow somehow
its alright I got it all figured out for now
Growing up but pain seems to find its own way
to remind us of the inner child left out to play
and the clock behind the door feels closer now
and sights and the sounds that we lost
what do we do now?
its alright I got it all figured out for now
and the clock behind the door feels closer now
and the sights and the sounds that we lost
what do we do now?
its alright I got it all figured out for now
for now
2. The Upside
I can hear the rain and I'm far from sleep
Come on over and rescue me
been laying on it hard and its tough to breath
so hurry like the breeze and lay with me
a song is rolling in my mind on repeat
you enter softly scene to scene
I can hear you singing as I drift to sleep
and the storm is fading like a midnight dream
when I'm upside down you're all that I've found to bring me around
when i'm upside down you're all that I've found to bring me around
Hard early rain and you're far from sleep
I got you here it's fair you see
I drink my pain and smoke my greed
know many men have lived before many of them have died in wars
when I'm upside down you're all that I've found to bring me around
when I'm upside down you're all that I've found to bring me around
I'm still singing and I'm not gonna leave, laying here just watching you breath
I love you cause you're good to me, a couple of hours in the morning you'll see
I'm still singing and I'm not gonna leave, laying here just watching you breath
I love you cause you're good to me, a couple of hours in the morning you'll see
when I'm upside down you're all that I've found to bring me around
when i'm upside down you're all that I've found to bring me around
3. Bones Are Buried
We need me a friend cause I'm long gone
and you hate yourself too much to love me
these bones are buried
I'm coming home, cause I'm never wrong
and I'm laid up five miles from dawn
and leave a light on and run to the one you love
and call it home but take that light wherever you go
these bones are buried, I'm coming home
cause I'm never wrong
and I'm laid up, and I'm laid up, and I'm laid up
five miles from dawn
these bones are buried I'm coming home
these bones are buried I'm coming home
these bones are buried I'm coming home
I'm coming home
4. My Old Home (Chicago)
I wasn't raised by no river, was born in the suburbs of Illinois
was taken from my home too young to know when I was still just a boy
so I hold my breath for the day I can rest
and I live to know that i'll be gone
off to somewhere just like all those places in my mind
and I will call it, call it home
my old home, Chicago
I never lied where I came from
texas had its place for me
to find a home, deep in my soul, I must know the world as a whole
so I hold my breath for the day I can rest
and I live to know that i'll be gone
off to somewhere just like all those places in my mind
and I will call it, call it home
my old home, my old home, my old home, Chicago
so I hold my breath for the day I can rest
and I live to know that i'll be gone
off to somewhere just like all those places in my mind
and I will call it, call it home
my old home, my old home, my old home
Chicago
5. Let's Start Here
*(Debby Throckmorton, ASCAP 25% Writer share. I also already handled this through our PRO's and I own all publishing)
We both got a name let's start here
when I asked are you alone you said, "yes, why are you not here?"
it was the biggest rager on the last day of school and you walked in with him
I lost my grip and began to regret all the words never said and left behind
the cops they rushed in, they ran us in all directions
we ran through the woods till we hit a cliff
above a lake we jumped in
ooh ooh ooh
We both got a name
let's start here
when I asked are you alone you said, "yes, why are you not here?"
We both got a name
let's start here
when I asked are you alone you said, "yes, why are you not here?"
It was the end of the summer and you ran so quick that we lost sight of this
heavy night mist and a moonlit kiss and the words we should have said
so many years left behind
my first love the first time my heart broke in two
so the biggest piece of my heart went to you
are these just my memories, do you remember me?
ooh ooh ooh
We both got a name
let's start here
when I asked are you alone you said, "yes, why are you not here?"
We both got a name
let's start here
when I asked are you alone you said, "yes, why are you not here?"
I can't live this way
I can't live this way
I can't live this way without you
We both got a name
let's start here
when I asked are you alone you said, "yes, why are you not here?"
6. Holding On
And everyone to blame is gone
and I don't wanna lay here alone
and my body aches from the pain of moving on
and I'm always moving on
fire on fire, like waking from a dream
and believing everything
and spirit aches from the pain of playing strong
and I'm always holding on
and my body aches from the pain of moving on
and my spirit aches from the pain of playing strong
and I'm always holding on
