Pipe Dream 03:42
I want this to happen, I want to take shape I want to exist inside what I create It's for you I hit the floor, the singer's all in session It feels like freedom, it feels like fate Oh but what parts of myself do I put on display Now that I am the sculptor and I am the clay? I don't know what I need but I'm not getting it anyway It's just a pipe dream, it's just a pipe dream It's just a pipe dream, it's just a pipe dream Smiling on your screen, only to be seen All for a pipe dream, dream, dream, dream I want this to happen, I want to lose shape I want to exist outside what I create It's for you I take a breath, I give my best impression It feels a character, it feels like a cage Oh but what parts of myself do I put on display Now that I am the sculptor and I am the clay? I don't know what you need but you're not getting it anyway It's just a pipe dream, it's just a pipe dream It's just a pipe dream, it's just a pipe dream Smiling on your screen, only to be seen All for a pipe dream, dream, dream, dream And God I hope that someone likes me God it weighs me down When I'm up in the clouds Trying to crawl back to the ground And I can't face the future if it never comes around It's all just a pipe dream I'm still waiting to come down

Early on the coastline Tangerines and trees and faith Melt sugar in the sunshine Climbed the hill on New Year's Day Secrets on your skateboard Spinning 'till I grazed my knees Bought candy from the cornerstore Follow home the honeybees Maybe we were just fairweather friends But isn't that the sweetest way to end? I know it's over We're not counting clover but If you need my closure, you have my love You have my love Sleeping bags and seashells Riding on a paper plane Find me on the stairwell And I'll race you there again So the wind caught you faster than me So the summer swept you straight out to sea So we never were the same, we don't have to be I think of you fondly I know it's over We're not counting clover but If you need my closure, you have my love I know we're older We're not counting clover but We couldn't be closer, you have my love You have my love I know it's over We're not counting clover but If you need my closure, you have my love I know we're older We're not counting clover but We couldn't be closer, you have my love You have my love

The harlequins have gone to bed, the lights are getting dim The carousel is slowing down, the ferris wheel won't spin The cowboy hats and costume parties don't feel like so much fun The glass's hue turns pink to blue, I see that this is done I want to live forever in your heart like we said But at the end of every happy life somebody drops dead I'm trapped in the tunnel of love It might not be so bad If I could find myself in anything But memories we had And now I'm locked in the tunnel of love Just waiting to jump ship But no sailor wants to accept that the end Is part of the trip Well I love you, I'd love to see you on chapel stairs But we're both in denial if this war was ever fair All the sequins and the sideshows, just distractions from the facts We've been going through the motions, now we're both caught in the act I want to live forever in your heart like we said But at the end of every happy life somebody drops dead I'm trapped in the tunnel of love It might not be so bad If I could find myself in anything But memories we had And now I'm locked in the tunnel of love Just waiting to jump ship But no sailor wants to accept that the end Is part of the trip I'm trapped in the tunnel of love, I'm trapped in the tunnel of love I'm trapped in the tunnel of love

I'd like to know what's on your mind Tell me all about your day I smile at you in the gray with waiting lips I want to hold your shaking hand White knuckles and black eyes Fallen dreams in disguise around your hips I'd love to creep across your walls I'll keep you breathing in the night Stay close at shepherd's delight, then slip away I'm gonna take a souvenir Carry your touch to my room Stained by your summer perfume, where you will stay I have to crawl inside your brain See the world as you do Feel your collarbones press through to satin skin I need to take your life for mine I'll be so carefully cruel You are my crowning jewel, the warm body I'm in For every evil under the sun It's not real when two becomes one I wonder if you wouldn't like My psychological strip Beneath each church lies the crypt, true love divine

Crush 03:38
Rolling your hips like you roll the papers Try all your tricks, you're an entertainer All the feelings I feel for ya Mortification and nausea, oh I can tell you now there won't be a later Ego death hits where it hurts A kiss goodbye into the dirt Don't come to me chasing that rush You're the type of man I'd only like to crush Underfoot Stomping out the silence right where you stood Little bit of violence never felt so good So don't call it love You're the type of man I'd only like to crush La la la like to crush, la la la like to crush Don't come to me chasing that rush You're the type of man I'd only like to crush You're not everybody's bottle of liquor Every taste only makes me sicker Got sunglasses on indoors You're so convinced the world is yours, oh But we only clap so it's over quicker Ego death hits where it hurts A kiss goodbye into the dirt Don't come to me chasing that rush You're the type of man I'd only like to crush Underfoot Stomping out the silence right where you stood Little bit of violence never felt so good So don't call it love You're the type of man I'd only like to crush La la la like to crush, la la la like to crush Don't come to me chasing that rush You're the type of man I'd only like to crush With all that nicotine and need for attention I can't say you set the best impression La la la like to crush, la la la like to crush Underfoot Stomping out the silence right where you stood Little bit of violence never felt so good So don't call it love You're the type of man I'd only like to crush La la la like to crush, la la la like to crush Don't come to me chasing that rush You're the type of man I'd only like to crush

Hang On Over 03:41
You can catch the wrong kind of buzz Mixing margaritas just because Crying in the porch light with your least favourite friends You want your life to change, it never does You can have the worst kind of fun Live inside the television hum Sleeping in the smoking section through the weekend You're the same when all is said and done There are good nights where you wait Only rings and rainbowed chains But the bad nights drag that heat down the drain Hang on over, hurt a little more Hang on over, cut to the cure Hang on over, it's so hardcore To be nothing that you wanted when you wake You can't shake the ego from your bones And you can't kill the choir on your own And you won't find new ways to care Sealed inside your self despair God knows there's good reason you're alone Oh I said there's good reason you're alone Hang on over, hurt a little more Hang on over, cut to the cure Hang on over, it's so hardcore To be nothing that you wanted when you wake Oh, what do you think of me? Oh, what do you think of me? Oh, what do you think of me? I am nothing that I wanted when I wake Hang on over, hurt a little more Hang on over, cut to the cure Hang on over, it's so hardcore To be nothing that you wanted when you wake To be nothing that you wanted when you wake I am nothing that I wanted when I wake
