VERSE 1:
What good am I if I can't save you, if I can't save you like he would
I hear the stories and bathe in glory but I feel like I'm firewood.
CHORUS:
I'm not happy til these people are happy
But they're never happy til they've got somebody to blame
Day after day, they're all the same
blankets of blame on the bed that I made
I'm not finished til I say I'm finished
But the people in this city always have an angle to play
Day after day, finding new ways
And blankets of blame on this bed of complaints
VERSE 2:
I feel the movement and move on through it
I'm learning who I want to be
This heavy heart lifts and hope surrounds it
I'm being who I want to be
CHORUS 2:
It's not over til I say it's over
But the moment that I know and I always have to explain
No one's to blame and people are strange
These blankets of blame fall on all just the same
I don't want to but I always have to
And I always get involved because nobody knows how to trade
Day after day, always the same
These common complaints shifting blankets of blame

VERSE 1:
I'm always happy on the outside
And mostly happy on the inside
I think together we'll be just right
I think, I think together we'll be so right
PRE CHORUS 1:
Every time we get close it's not quite there, but just almost
And I wish we were together like we're not so
Maybe we'll get together in a month or two
VERSE 2:
You're always quiet on the outside
I'm always screaming on the inside, outside
I never know if you are alright
I wish, I wish when it was our time
PRE CHORUS 2:
Every time we get close it's not quite there, but just almost
And I wish we weren't just comfortable like old clothes
Maybe we'll be together in a month or so
CHORUS:
You don't say anything and I say too much
What a pair we make, what a pair we'd make
You could go anywhere and I'd go with you
I think I almost need you, I think I want to need to
BRIDGE:
Who'd have thought we'd stuck together
Through the good times and the slightly less good times
Not "together" or whatever
Here's to the good times, the good times

VERSE 1:
Here on the wings of the clouds
I take in the oceans below
I exist so alone
I appreciate all that you've done
CHORUS:
The way I see it if I wanted a shot to really be happy
I'd just stop questioning the way
I'm gonna end up lonely tonight
The way you need me but I'm cold and alone
And I'm skimming the surfaces of a storm front
Raises on my eyes
I'm gonna dry them off tonight
VERSE 2:
I hold the weight of the world
So tired are my shoulders but you
Look at me with those eyes
Like no one could notice at all
Does nobody notice at all?
BRIDGE:
Am I really finding home?
After all these years of being alone?
And okay, maybe I'll stay
But you've got to understand, I'm changing who and what I am
When I say...

VERSE 1:
I love you and pancakes
And not necessarily in that order
If you mess with me
I will break your legs
Who knew we'd be so close
And yet somehow there's no way you don't see it
If you mess with my friends
I will shatter your legs
CHORUS:
I seem so strong when I'm around you
Through everything I still adore you
I look at you and have the best view
I'm always here and waiting for you
VERSE 2:
Sometimes when I know you're not looking
I sit and day dream like I would when I'm sleeping
A recurring dream
Tell me what it means
Who knew we'd be teammates
And so much more if we need it
You can't break my heart
Well you could, but don't I'm begging you
BRIDGE:
We are meant to be and yet I can't find the words
When you're close to me I feel like I'm off with the birds
You invade my dreams and we're fighting to survive
What is what will be when we live out both our lives

VERSE 1:
I've got so many questions
You could say that I was
Born yesterday
I've got so many secrets
Hidden in my hard drives
Or my mind
CHORUS 1:
Now comes the hard part
Explaining the who and what I am
VERSE 2:
Tell me all about your teammates
What is it we're doing?
What happened here?
Quickly, put you in the dumpster
Hide you from the watchers
I'll explain it later
CHORUS 2:
Now comes the hard part
Explaining the who and what to you
Now comes the worst part
When I might lose my new friend
BRIDGE 1:
You're taking this really well
And I can't tell, if it has sunk in
I'm not who you thought I was
So let's press pause, or start this over
And then in this interview
Come clean to you, I'm not a real girl
Even though I've got no strings
Or anything, or everything
BRIDGE 2:
Got no strings!
No strings on me!
BRIDGE 3:
I believe that we'll figure it out, figure this out
Got to believe that we'll figure it out, figure it out

VERSE:
We weren’t always friends when we met at first
Trust is hard to mend, gone from bad to worse
CHORUS:
Everyone gets angry, at least from time to time
And sometimes we go crazy and let out what’s inside
But everyone needs everyone to not be eye for eye
Cause in the end we’re only making ourselves blind
VERSE 2:
You and I are friends
You and her are more
Love cannot be bent
It’s an open door
BRIDGE:
You can play with fire but don’t you toy with me
Cause you are my desire, we’re something don’t you see?
But time and trust are things that we require to heal and mend
And time and trust are things that we just cannot learn to bend.
CHORUS 2:
Everyone gets lonely when they’re away from home
And everyone gets homesick when they are on their own
But everyone needs everyone to try and get along
Cause in the end we’re only as weak as we are strong

VERSE 1:
So this is it, I must admit
That you're constantly surprising me
With how you turn up constantly
Don't be naive, you can't believe
That he even told you everything
And yet you're acting so convinced
CHORUS 1:
So I made my plans, and I made demands
You're slipping through my hands, and as you land
I know it's all my fault, and in this vault
I think I've never wanted anything as much as I want you to understand
VERSE 2:
What can I say? You think you're brave
But you're only standing up to me
Misguided misplaced loyalty
I never thought, of all I want
That a daughter was amongst the things
But now you are my everything
CHORUS 2:
So I made my plans, and I made demands
You're slipping through my hands, and as you land
I know it's all my fault, and in this vault
I know I've never needed anything as much as I need you to understand

VERSE 1:
Okay, so I care a little more than what I let show
No big deal here but sometimes I think I should tell you
We could be more than whatever it is that we are right now
Or not, I guess.
Gotta get a grip on my heart now
CHORUS:
Cause it keeps skipping beats and I never retreat
But you are giving me something to think about
And this just isn't me, I'm worried about things
Things I never thought that I would worry about
VERSE 2:
Oh great, I'm here with you as the sun is setting
Seems so perfect, but something always seems to happen
When will I get a tiny moment to myself with
With you, without them?
(Gotta get a grip on my heart now)
LAST CHORUS:
Cause it keeps skipping beats and I never retreat
And you are giving me so much to think about

VERSE 1:
So you could say
I didn't want to be this way
But I've got work to and next to you
I never seem to rate
And I believe
You wear your heart out on your sleeve
But this is war for now
And I'm going down
If I make it out we're safe
CHORUS:
No you don't understand
What I'm doing for you so baby
Go pick up your hand
I can't hide from the truth
I'm saving you and all your friends
I'm saving you and all your friends
VERSE 2:
And by the way
When I asked if you would stay
I know I came on strong,
and it played out wrong
What I wanted was my way
You'll never know
All the reasons I let go
But you are stronger now
Had to go to ground
I guess the future's yet to show
BRIDGE:
I just want you to want me
(I want to)
I just need you to need me
(I need to)
(Tell you that but you'd never hear it from me)
