Starting Over

I've been wrestling with my thoughts most every night
Wondering how I believed that we could make it right
Lights flicker with the swan song
It's two-o-clock, but the night is still young
So I find a lonely bar and step inside
But I'm alright without you
One more drink to ease the pain
Yes I'm alright without you
I'm starting over
Gonna drown in all this alcohol and drift away
And when I'm sober
At least I know that I can start a new day
Closing time and I stumble out in the dawn
Wishing I could call you up and talk about it, but I was way too gone
In the morning I'll be forced to face the sun
Light of day will hit like a freight train on the run
But the hurt won't measure up to what you've done

Underground

I saw you standing there with your headphones on, and a torn hole in your jeans
Surrounded by a hundred eyes, but did you see me
In this crowded elevator
Won't you take us down
Let's go underground
See the world beneath our feet
Let's go underground
We'll have it all to ourselves
The deeper we go the more gravity pulls us
So let's go, go down
Let's go underground
Underground
Let the subway cars replace the stars as we dodge the lights
And several miles later, we won't know where we are
Though time has stopped, the clock keeps ticking
So let's not waste a second
We'll both get lost between the rails
And hope we don't get stuck by nails
Just me and you and everyone we know
We know

My Everyone

You're the card I'm holding up my sleeve
Only ace in the hole I'll ever need
Cause when the river shows and all my chips are down
That's when I'll need you around
Cause people fall in love and I've seen the spark
And they don't compare to us, no they miss the mark
At the end of the day, when it's all said and done
You're my everyone
You are my sinner, and you're my priest
You're my hunger pains, and you're my feast
You are my argument, and my resolve
The remedy to all of my faults
Day after day and hour by hour
We'd sit and we'd wait, wait for the showers
To be on their way
But I know that sun will shine
With you by my side, I won't ever feel alone
No I won't

The Way Home

Don't know how it starts, but you know the feeling
Suddenly you're pressed up against a ceiling
We've been through this before
But here we go again, running 'round in circles
Ready on your mark to jump these hurdles
And end up on the floor
No sense of direction
We've lost the way home
But I don't wanna be alone
We've lost the way home
Don't wanna be alone
Sleep until you're numb and the light starts fading
Try and slow it down, but days are racing
And time won't wait for us
You're ready to move on, but you're still uncertain
Coming to the close, the final curtain
A stage reduced to dust
Help me to find my way
'Cause I need to find my way home

In this house, there's an attic, a portal to the past
With tired walls and broken toys, the rug is fading fast
Boxes of photos, labeled by the year
Some containing moments of when you still were here
I remember you'd say
Though it seems so far away
Keep your eyes on sunny skies
See her smile in a photo, but I remember tears
And here, he's a champion though he lost for years
Could've been a starlet, but she never left this town
He, man of the year, but the bottle brought him down
I remember you'd say
Though it seems so far away
Bring back a memory
When we began our story
No glimpse or worry of what we would become
Where did the fire go
Now that you left me solo
I'm hanging on to the words I know

She walked out at 5:24
In a black dress and her hair to the floor
I could barely see in the fading light
But I'm sure she could
We got back home at 5:24
A half day gone, no less, no more
I could finally see with the rising sun
But she turned it out
She left on the 5:24
Some empty bags, a note on the door
And I swear heard through the dark of night
The train pull away
On the 5:24
One way to the shore
It's all you understand anymore
On the 5:24
On the 5:24
One way to the shore
It's all you ever wanted to live for
On the 5:24
Booked a ride on the 5:24
I'd like to view the sea
