Headin' Out

Oh no, I’m unraveling again
I guess that’s just what happens when you’re stuck in a spin
No kind of sense of direction,
So I’ll fake it over that way
I’m tired of waiting on myself, so I’m headin’ out
. . .
Oh no, I’m unraveling again
And again, and again, and again, and again,
I’m unraveling
No kind of sense of direction,
I’m just tryna figure it out
I’m tired of waiting on myself
So I’m headin’ out
Again, and again,
and again (x8)
I’m headin’ out

V1
How do you keep moving through the dark of night?
How do you see clear with those stars in your eyes?
How do you keep moving with no sense of time
How do you just watch the breeze that rolls right bye
I guess I’ll be honest
I try hard to hide that I overthink
And I know that its stupid
So I try letting go, letting go
But I’m not sure if its working
C
Yeah, I’m feelin’ it all
Deeper than the ocean,
High enough to fall
Yeah, I’m feelin’ it all
Somehow you keep it going
Answering the call
V2
How do you keep moving with no end in sight?
How do you see beyond the stars in your eyes?
How do you keep all those thoughts trapped in your head?
How do you just not embrace the suffering?
I’d rather look stupid
I’d rather just lie and put on a face
And I’m not being honest
Not with anyone, not even myself
Oh no
What it is, is like, something I do
To protect myself but then I say that its for you
And I know its not the right thing to do
But does self awareness just make me look worse to you?
Careening through time
Just risin’ and fallin’
Risin’ and fallin’ again
But the toll on my mind
Has me fall, fall, fallin’
Fall, fall, fallin’
C
Yeah, I’m feelin’ it all
Deeper than the ocean
High enough to fall
Yeah, I’m feelin’ it all
Gotta keep it going
Answering the call
Yeah, I’m feelin’ it all
Deeper than the ocean
High enough to fall
Yeah, I’m feelin’ it all
Somehow you keep it going
Answering the call

Reasonable Doubt
03:23
|

|
V1:
Sittin' there with nothin' to think about
Sittin' there believin' with reasonable doubt
I won't be leaving it at the door today
In a way, that's okay
Sittin' there with somethin' to ponder on
Thinking that I won't be back until the dawn
Not a planner - it just ends up that way
In a way, I'm not okay
V2:
Sittin' there and blatherin' on and on
Changing my mind but I'm already gone
Would have headed on back if I thought I'd make it
In a way, I don't know shit
B:
And I don't wanna hear the last thing that you said
Its not over me, I'm not over it
And the thing I hate about hatin' me is that I don't come by it honestly
C:
But if I had a chance, then I would forgive me
But that kinda hope is just ancient history
And the last thing I need is to dwell upon the past
V3:
Sittin' there with nothin' to think about
Drivin' at night with reasonable doubt
Not beleivin' in everything that I say
I can never tell if that's okay
C:
But if I had a chance, then I would forgive me
But that kinda hope is just ancient history
And the last thing I need is to dwell upon the past

V1
When the circumstances have ended up just right
Takin’ off at the end of the night
In your mind - hop on the late flight
And the stars surround you, perfectly alight
Flyin’ higher into the night
Hard to tell if you’ll be alright, yeah
C
I don’t think I’m gonna be fine
I just think I’m losin’ my mind
I don’t know what I’m gonna find
I just know that I will unwind
Kinda sick of feelin’ this way
So unsure if I’ll be okay
Wonderin’ if I’m fadin away
Hopin’ that I’ll rot and decay
V2
When the circumstances are just so perfectly right
Headin’ out, escapin’ tonight
In your mind on another space flight
And the stars surround you, those are not street lights
Further and further into the night,
Further and further into the night
C
(Ho-oh)
I don’t think I’m gonna be fine
I just think I’m losin’ my mind
I don’t know what I’m gonna find
I just know that I will unwind
Kinda sick of feelin’ this way
So unsure if I’ll be okay
Wonderin’ if I’m fadin away
Hopin’ that I will be-
B
-focused on escapin’
To the nebula that’s always there
High above the shadows and the stars they surround
(Ho-ah-oh Ho-oh)
Focused on escapin’
All that I can
I don’t think I’m leavin’
From deep in my dreamin’
Lost in the nebula

Night Cruiser

|
V1:
Late night cruisin'
Street lights in the sky
Watching them go passin'
'Til I lose track of the time
I'm trying, believe me
But I'm scared of the unknown
No I can't do this anymore,
No I can't do this
I just gotta let it all go tonight
I can't keep waiting on my hindsight
One thing that I know is that I've got to keep on driving
I just gotta let it all go tonight
I can't keep waiting on my hindsight
One thing that I know is that I've got to keep on cruisin'
C:
It's over again,
I never thought I'd fall back in
But now I think I'm losin' all control of everything I'm feelin'
It's over again
I thought I knew myself back then
I never thought I'd fall back in
But now I think I'm losin' all control of everything I'm feelin'
It's over again,
A weaker part of me gave in
I wish there was a way for me to know if I'll ever figure it out
It's over again, its over again
V2:
Late night cruisin'
Glidin' down an empty road,
Feel like I've regained control
But I fear I'll be overthrown
One thing, baby
I've got to let you know
That I can't do this anymore,
No I can't do this
I just gotta let it all go tonight
I can't keep waiting on my hindsight
One thing that I know is that I've got to keep on cruisin'
C:
Well It's over again,
I never thought I'd fall back in
But now I think I'm losin' all control of everything I'm feelin'
It's over again
I thought I knew myself back then
I never thought I'd fall back in
But now I think I'm losin' all control of everything I'm feelin'
It's over again,
A weaker part of me gave in
I wish there was a way for me to know if I'll ever figure it out
It's over again, its over again

Anyway
03:21
|
|||
|
V1:
I never know just what to say
Can never find it there in my brain
Too many words just feel the same
But you'll never notice anyway
Ha-ahh
What else can I do?
You can't tell what is true when you're all worked up
I don't even notice what I say
I don't even know the root of the pain
Don't know if it matters anyway
(Ha-ahh, repeated)
V2:
I never know just what to say
Can never find it there in my brain
Can never focus on the frame
I coulda been lyin' in the rain
Dunno if I'd feel it anyway
What else can I do?
I'm howlin' at the moon 'cause I'm all worked up
I don't even know if I'm a pain
I don't wanna fail when I explain
Don't know if it matters anyway
(Ha-ahh, repeated)
B:
I never know just what to say
Can never find it there in my brain
Too many words just feel the same
But you'll never notice anyway
Ha-ahh
I'm runnin' out of time
I'm passin' by the chances I might've had to turn it around
What am I sayin'?
No - i don't really mean that
I say I hurtful thing to myself to make me feel alive
Why do I do that, anyway?

What If We Change?
04:13

|
V1:
What if we change?
What if I don't get better?
What if everything's different but still feels the same?
What we change?
What if I'm still the problem?
What if everyone else is just fighting themselves like me?
P-C:
When you think too hard, and you go too deep
Its all staggering, knocks you off your feet
And its not hard to tell
That I'm fighting with myself
And its something that I do very well
V2:
What if we change?
What if I could get better?
What if I knew exactly what I needed to do?
What if it changes?
What if I was just wrong?
What if I've just been thinkin' for far too long?
P-C:
And you think too hard,
And you go too deep
Its all staggering, knocks you off your feet
And its not hard to tell
That I'm fighting with myself
And its something that I do way too well
C:
But what if we change?
What if we change?
Yeah, what if we change?
Ahhh-ho-ahh-ahh-ho-ahh
(break)
C:
What if we change?
What if I'm changin' and changin' my life away?
Yeah what if we change?
What would it say if I just changed from the sunset of yesterday?
Yeah, what if we change?
Ahh, and what if we change?
What if we're changin' and changin' our lives away?
Yeah, what if we change?
So what if we change?
So what if we change?
What if we change?
Yeah what if we change?
What if we *changed?*

V1:
Don't wanna think too long
How certain moods are wrong
That's not the path that I'm on
Although, I'm -
Not really feelin' that strong
Can't seem to shake that I'm wrong
Don't really know what's going on
Although I'm making changes I still feel the same
And I influence myself exactly in the wrong way
Maybe I've lost it all
Maybe there's nothing but further to fall from
P-C:
Trying hard not to blow this
Knowing my only hope is
That I will just not be noticed
Obscuring but not unfocused
Trying hard to let go of this
Climbing out of the abyss
Tryin' so hard to focus
And I know this - I know this
C:
Yeah everyone's got a choice to make
You don't need to be hung up on one mistake
You don't need to waste time on that
Why don't you just move on and be sad?
V2:
Don't wanna talk that much
About my flaws and such
Its not a thing that I touch
Although, I -
Tend to go ramblin' on
Talk to you all night long
Don't even know what I'm doin' wrong
Although, I -
May be, sorta, really, self-aware
In a way that makes me wanna pull out my hair
Maybe I'm the only one
Maybe there's no-one who's anything like me
Tired of feelin' lonely
But not because of the company
Because of what they don't see in me
Because of what I don't see in me
Because I just can't seem to be
Keepin' it all easy
Please know - I'm tryin', I'm tryin',
I swear
(break)
C:
Yeah everyone's got a burden to break
One after another you're bound a mistake
You don't need to be so hard on yourself
You don't need to be so hard on yourself
Yeah everyone's got a choice to make
You don't need to be hung up on one mistake
You don't need to waste time on that
Why don't you just move on and **be**?

What Can I Say?
04:06
|

|
V1:
Been meanin' to tell you I'm on my own
I left you way back there some time ago
Didn't mean to forget but I should have known
I'm sorry, I promise to work on my ego
C:
What can I say?
I don't mind
Switchin' sides
As long as I'm by yours
V2:
Been meanin' to tell you, I'm headin' home
I meant to get going much longer ago
Don't think that I need to have full control
To let myself heal by the fire of my soul
C:
What can I say?
I don't mind
Switchin' sides
As long as I'm by yours
Yeah - What can I say?
Yeah, I don't mind
Switchin' sides
As long as I'm by yours
V3:
Been meanin' to tell you, I'm headin' home
I meant to get going much longer ago
I'm sorry for dragging you out in the cold
Come on back, yeah, baby, to the heat of my soul
C:
Yeah - what can I say?
Yeah, I don't mind
Swi-tchin'-sides
As long as I'm by yours
Yeah, what can I say?
Yeah, I don't mind
Switchin' sides all the time
As long as I'm with you

Easy
03:47
|
|||
|
V1:
Lately its been hard to do
Believin' that I'll make it through
When I struggle with myself
I know its easy to tell
And honestly I just can't do
Anything but pushing through
But I still struggle sometimes
Not always easy I find
C:
But over time, you just might see a more confident version of me
And over time, I might just get a chance to put it all together
And maybe after a little more time, I'll keep on growin' and I'll be fine with
The thing that follows me I know -
That shadow of mine called sorrow
V2:
Baby its not hard to do
Its easy when I'm lovin' you
Gettin' through it at your side
You make it easy to confide
And over time, I don't wanna drag you down anymore
I'll take a turn, I'll carry you with all my support
I know I still have a chance to turn it around
I'll take the lead and bring us both back down to the ground
B:
Now I see it coming through
I see both the reflection of you-on-me and me-on-you
I won't forget that -
Whether I'm talking to myself or somebody on the outside
I gotta remember the glowing ember of the heart inside of my mind
I must still care about how I'm livin'
If I can care about what I'm missin'
There's not a single other ambition
That holds a candle to the love you're givin'

Afterlife
03:59

|
V1:
Every time I'm goin' 'round the bend
I catch myself staring ahead
Forgetting all about the scenery, realizing I'm -
C:
Chasin' afterlife
Chasing, chasing after life
V2:
Every time I'm scannin' my surroundings
I'm searchin' for what I know
Maybe a wayfinder could lead me somewhere before I end up -
C:
Chasing, chasing afterlife
Chasing, chasing afterlife
V3:
Every time I'm findin' my way home
I've got a tendency to roam
And when you're wandering there's always a chance to end up right back -
B:
Chasing afterlife
Leaving yourself behind
So its required that you slow down
Might be the only way to really look around
When you're on the way back down, again
Chasing, chasing afterlife
Chasing, chasing afterlife
mmm-hmmm-mm-hmm

Headin' Home
04:31
|
|||
|
V1:
If I'm headin' home,
I might as well take the scenic road I know
Then while I'm heading home, I'm gonna see if I still feel the sun as its risin
And while I am headin' home I might just -
C:
Fly
One more time
Right up to the sun
Feelin' it rise
Right out of the night
V2:
As I'm headin' home
I might even take a moment to wind myself back up then -
I'll be headin' home with another night drive under the belt
yeah, and as I'm headin' home
I'm gonna -
C:
Fly
I'm feelin' the wind, its at my side
From out of the night
Maybe I might end up bein' alright
Sun on the skin
Wings over wind
Ride out of the night
V3:
Nearly home and late in a fashion
No other chance for another reaction
To all of the things i left way back in the -
C:
Night
I left 'em behind
Wind on either side
Sunlight washin' over and through my mind
Again, and again
Set me up for another day
Again, and again
Sun on the skin,
Flight over wind
I must be alive.
