Film Noir

The film fades to a portrait of nothing
No longer there, but still a part of something behind our eyes
An echo, of our thoughts never spoken.
Spin around, around until there's nothing left to hide inside
Nothing left to tie me down anymore
Film Noir, scripted lines are all we are
Another dame in a bar, radiating charm for this
Film Noir, scripted lines are all we are
I am playing the part, of a man who's destined to break your heart
You see, film is a fantasy
It's all it ever was and ever will be
Something you can never hold in comparison to your own self
And I hope you don't carry that feeling down the road
Cause it'll be a heavy burden, and nobody needs that
So just do yourself a favor, and let it go
Film Noir, scripted lines are all we are
Another dame in a bar, radiating charm for this
Film Noir, scripted lines are all we are
I am playing the part, of a man who's destined to break your heart

Knockin' On Your Door

Knocking on your door
I don't know what for
Can't quite recall where I've been
Must've been drinking again
I think I had something to say
Had it written in blue
Would it matter if I sent it your way
Or would you hold to your truth?
We all see what we want to believe
And we all know how our world should be
I hope you will try to see me
When I say in a way we are never alone
(We are never alone)
What I mean is we can dream of all the love that we've known
And keep on going
I'm feeling stronger than before
This time I've been assured
That trying is the hard part
And nobody's keeping score
If a chance is all you're given than take it
Don't see one, you've gotta create it
You make your choices, they don't make you
We all see what we want to believe
And we all know how our world should be
I hope you will try to see me
When I say in a way we are never alone
(We are never alone)
What I mean is we can dream of all the love that we've known
Believe me
When I say in a way we are never alone
(We are never alone)
What I mean is we can dream of all the love that we've known
And keep on going

Melancholia
03:10
|
|||
|
You've gone and crossed my mind
A time or two since we've lived our new lives
A different time and place but we can't help feeling connected by memories
Life's droned on, we've changed our songs
A new verse where mine once belonged
Sang it the other day, doesn't sound like me at all
Had to find a different way in somewhere I belonged
In a different time and place but we can't help feeling connected by memories

Fall of 92'
05:42
|
|||
|
I've been thinking, for some time now
What if I move from here somehow?
Would it be like the dreams I've had?
Or would I lose it all?
No it couldn't be that bad
Goodbye heartland, I'll miss your beat
I'll always love the girl that you helped me meet
She gave me summer in the fall of 92'
Her skin so soft, our love so true
Will I still look at her with the same eyes?
Could we feel the same through all those miles?
I'll only know, if I only try
And I won't forget the souls I have passed by
Goodbye heartland, I'll miss your beat
I'll always love the girl that you helped me meet
She gave me summer in the fall of 92'
Her skin so soft, our love so true
I'm on my way to the city of gold
I hope I make it before I'm old
I'm on my way to the city of gold
I hope I make it before I'm old
Goodbye heartland, I'll miss your beat
I'll always love the girl that you helped me meet
She gave me summer in the fall of 92'
Her skin so soft, our love so true

What the Hell
04:35
|
|||
|
What the hell is going on?
Fingers pointed 'cross the lines that were drawn
Can you tell me who's really in the wrong?
When the boss man has been cheating all along
I know I ain't gotta say it
Just look at how far we've made it
And you might think it's rainin'
But babe it's just the tree we've been shaking
You can never bring back the past
Because some things never last
You can't make great again
What never was to begin
I wish I knew what to do
I wish I knew what to say
And if anybody needs me
Tell them I wished my life away

One Thang
03:50
|
|||
|
Put his mind in a paper bag
Never knew that he'd regret that fact
His view of the world
Never remained intact
Distracted
Something else on his mind
Never present in the world about him
But when he hears those words
Ever present is he
Because it's that one thang
It's that one thang that opens his eye
It's that one thang
It's in the words, it's in the numbers
Every day and every night
It's even in the hypotheticals
The seers saw it in their sight
What a precious thing they saw
Oh they tried to hide it from him
But you can't hide it from him, no
Cause it's that one thang
Yes it's that one thang
It's that one thang that opens his eye
It's that one thang
