Jitter 02:57
"Jitter" I'd give anything to know what you do when you're alone. Seems that everywhere we go other people are in love. Just who are we to judge when it should belong to us? And it never stops... But we love to fight it. Yeah, we love to fight it. Yeah, we love to fight it. There's a jitter in the sound of the light before the dawn. Can you feel it coming on? Little sliver of the moon, and it's filling up the room. But we're never going home. I've waited for so long. Now I don't know what to say. And my body's full of knots. This isn't happening again. Let's give into a world where desire can be heard. It's a matter of time... But we love to fight it. Yeah, we love to fight it. Yeah, we love to fight it. There's a jitter in the sound of the light before the dawn. Can you feel it coming on? Little sliver of the moon, and it's filling up the room. But we're never going home. There's a jitter in the sound of the light before the dawn. Tell me I'm the only one. There's a jitter in the sound of the light before the dawn.

"Midnight Lemonade" Cannot think of all the ways we could go wrong. Of all the things the world will break, it never broke us. Deliver me, deliver me, deliver... Caught me living in a dream. Sipping midnight lemonade. Caught me living in a dream. Sipping midnight lemonade. Cannot think of all the ways we could fall down. The silent way we all behave, it never fooled us. Remember me, remember me, remember... Caught me living in a dream, Sipping midnight lemonade. Caught me living in a dream, Sipping midnight lemonade.

100 Days 02:53
"100 Days" It's been a hundred days and I can't get you out of my head. I tried a hundred ways and I can't get you off of my mind. It's been a hundred days. Been so long to wait. And it's been a hundred days. Been so long to wait.
4.
"Strange Symmetry" Strange Symmetry, in what we cannot see, static electricity. I had a dream, we won the lottery, the numbers stayed with me. I don't know where it's coming from, and I'm lost without your crooked love. Tearing down what we're building up, and I can't find my way alone. Strange chemistry, it's in our genes just out of reach. Grass in a field is growing endlessly around a single tree. I don't know where it's coming from and I'm lost without your broken love. Tearing down what we're building up, and I can't find my way back home. Strange symmetry, anatomy, the things in three. Try not to read too much in falling leaves and anniversaries.

Great Ones 03:58
Every day we're getting old. We never see what's coming on. I'm giving up, I gotta go. I laid awake, I should have known. I never found my way home. So many things we're running from. The wasted days, they've come and gone. We're making noise without a sound. Great ones start young, so young, so young. Everything we've ever known turns out to be a little wrong. I'm breaking down, I'm letting go. I laid awake. I should have known. And all the things we work for that never see the open doors. The endless hours, the restless heart. We're making noise, it never stops. Great ones start young, so young, so young.
6.
Never Enough 04:06
"Never Enough" Once in a while, you get ahead of yourself. You wait to arrive, but you never depart. Once in a while, you have a story to tell. The rest of the time, you keep to yourself. Once in a while, is too hard to judge, too hard to judge. Once in a while, is too hard to judge, too hard to judge. Once in a while, is never enough. It's never enough. It's never enough. Once in a while, you get a little head start. Run like the wind but you can't beat the clock. Once in a while, you happens more often than not. Takes up some time, but you, you never give up. Once in a while, is too hard to judge, too hard to judge. Once in a while, is too hard to judge, too hard to judge. Once in a while, is never enough. It's never enough. It's never enough.

Born out of luck, we came to be. Ripped from a flood, and then washed to sea. Worn by the gods, like jewelry in sky. You and I, chasing planets in the night. Torn from a book, not meant to be read. But written instead on a page too big for our pens. Too small for our heads. From the start, we knew it all. Everything, that came before. From the start, we gave it up. We gave it all, it gave to us. In bits and parts, and what it was. A beating heart, a raging flood. In fits and starts, it takes so long. Before you know, it's all gone. Hey, old bones, just where you going? Hey, old bones, just where you going? Hey, old bones. Hey, old bones. Hey. Hey. Hey! Hey!

Conditions 04:41
"Conditions" Trapped behind the walls, you will have to meet their conditions. Trapped behind the walls, you will have to meet their conditions. Trapped behind the walls. Wasted on my wicked, wasted on my wicked, wasted on my wicked heart. Wasted on my wicked, wasted on my wicked, wasted on my wicked heart. Hide away from all we know, hide away from all we know, hide away from all we know.

"We were like gods" I was leaving for some days and letting go of my old ways. Heaven knows that we all stay too long. Time, you know, it doesn't wait and when it does it's much too late. You and me were meant for starting over. The animal is twice as strong and always watching over us. We're waiting on the changing of the guard. Shadows where we used to go, you know that's not the only clue. The heat that fills our bodies is enough, it's enough. I was learning from mistakes and trying not to recreate them. Are there any places left to go? I'm giving it my best to change, to take my cards and rearrange. No one knows the ace is in the hole. The animal is twice as strong and always watching over us. We're waiting on the changing of the guard. Shadows where we used to go, you know that's not the only clue. The heat that fills our bodies is enough, it's enough. I am breaking what I will and feeling so invincible. Ain't that something we can never be? Will you lend a helping hand when it gets so hard to stand? But the standing isn't everything... Is it everything? The animal is twice as strong and always watching over us. We're waiting on the changing of the guard. Shadows where we used to go, you know that's not the only clue. The heat that fills our bodies is enough, it's enough.

"Everywhere but home" Everywhere but home is the only house we live in. Everywhere but home is the first place we go. Everywhere but home our sins may be forgiven. Everywhere but home is the only thing we know. Everywhere but home is a city. Everywhere but home is a town. Everywhere but home is a pity. Don't you feel so lonely when you're moving with the blowing wind, wanna be someone who settles down.
