Song lyrics appear in the order they come on our set.

Alone

I don’t know what you and I have discussed in the past.
We’d be so much less distant
If i'd only tried to listen.
Should have thought it over some more.

Running through the rain.
Watching busy streets.
I want this distraction.
It’s so nice when you’re feeling down,
To just watch the world alone.

I can tell that you’re trying to be insightful
Trying to read in on my actions
We’re not doing so well in communications.
Hoping for the best isn’t how you talk.

I was born to be wild... Maybe something like that
but I don't recall being born... to be honest.
I wasn't given a purpose But I know what I'm doing.
I'm not wasting my time. I've kept on going. Kept on working.

And we're off, we're off to a running start. Hard working, hard going.
Keep laughing, We know what we're doing.
And we're off, We're off to a running start. We're going for the gold.
Putting all our cards on the table.


You. You've been asleep all day.
And I've been up all night.
What have you got to say,
for yourself?
dont you feel any shame?
knowing that you, 
aren't worth the 
hassle. 

Hold your breath. Slip underwater.
Count to ten. We've gone up higher.
Look how far we've come.
Look at me. Look at us.
We've forgotten our mistakes and moved on,
Look at us.

And we're off.
We're off to a running start.
We're off. And we're off.

We’ll go down with a smile
And out with a bow.
And keep our heads up
As the world goes down.

Uh-Oh the Popo

He crept around the corner,
Gun drawn, at the ready.
No one knows he’s snoopin’ over,
How come people started screaming?
Pulls the money away and he runs,
Sirens in the distance.
12 grand richer 2 lives cheaper,
Was it a fair trade, we’ll never know…

Nothing wrong with a little fun,
Shoot around with the other guys.
Cops are coming to try and get them,
Need to make up for lost time.
Through the streets, down the alleys,
Nighttime’s coming fast.
In darkness with the hidden money,
They’re coming to take back the stash.

In Mind

Never mind, oh never mind what we remember.
Forget occurrences from way back when.
It doesn’t matter, if it happened, so long ago
There’s vague fights, but cruel thoughts should be left alone.

Just lose, lose the memory (‘cause) it’s not worth keeping in mind.
It’s hard enough to keep track of your complicated thoughts.

Why work when there’s childish reminiscing
It’s more fun to recall than apply yourself.
The hate and the fury that seemed too important
Is now, humorous, useless and distant.

I can feel the nights coming in
The moon sails through the sky.
When the light starts a fading
As our lives stand by.
You can’t be sure when things go wrong,
That you’ll never be the same again.
Give up hope ‘cause of what you lost,
Never bothered to regain.

‘Cause we’re always saying how
some things are set in stone.
But your hopes can move around
When your dreams have been outgrown
Forget what people expect
We need all the respect that we get
Just shuffle along keep moving
‘Cause you’ve got nothing to wish for

You’re out of luck but not done
You’ve just gotta pull together to accept
Sometimes there’s nothing (left) to hope for
And you’ve (gone and) lost your best bet.
Keep your hands at your sides
After all your faults have been denied
Keep it clean so nothing can happen
It’s boring but at least the mess won’t expand.

Needless to say,
We’ve got troubles to face
But it’s fine.
since you’ll waste time.
Bottle it up inside
The ideas seem to grow
But the new thoughts formed
Are never shared
Because everyone’s scared
Of what the rest will say.

“Come inside,
tell us about yourself
Never mind.
we don’t want you
infecting us:
Your crazy ideas are
making our brains bleed
[Your] Innovation is insane.
we don’t want to read,
We don’t want to listen.”

Bring Them Back

I'll never admit I miss anyone.
It's the worst type of dishonesty.
I'm sorry, I'm sorry.

But I'll admit it. Because it's now or never.
I never said that I cared - I thought they hadn't earned it.
As if my friends don't deserve it, what have I done? I'm pushing them farther away.
Bring them back.

Watching everyone grow up around me.
Over time, I've forgotten myself.
You forget all the bad jokes.
But you remember our laughter.
