i want it all is that so wrong
i know we don't need one more song
but everybody has a boyfriend
so where does that leave me
i woke up late again this morning
the sun is high to remind me
i know you only see what's easier
asking what's wrong with what you lead
(prechorus)
so i thought and walked the afternoon
well don't you see there's nothing i can do
(chorus)
some souls are meant for california
some souls are made to never figure out their place
give my regards to what we planned for
i know you'd have me see this through
without a trace
but everybody has a boyfriend
so where does that leave me
i woke too late again this morning
to have that girl falling for me
convinced myself of what she's after now
but i'm so far from what she needs
(prechorus)
when i saw her on the avenue
i realized there's nothing i can do
(chorus)
some souls are meant for california
some souls are made to never figure out their place
give my regards to what we planned for
lord knows we don't need one more song
to take the blame
but everybody has a boyfriend
so where does that leave me
(bridge)
thousand oaks crush
you found the best of us
they took it all away
and say we can't expect a thing
they built us up
until we couldn't stop
we couldn't turn away
so why the fuck wouldn't i complain
(solo)
(chorus)
some souls are meant for california

give my regards to what we planned for

walk right
like you still have control
i lie
just so you'll come around
i don't know what the summer's done to you
and i don't know where you found things you have to prove
i'm supposed to be the one you turn to when things don't go right
not your ride
she loves to tell me bout how
(chorus)
one and one
are always the same
but with everything i do
you'll just get further away
we want our summer weather
lives together
you don't have to love me
but don't throw it away
their eyes
they look to bring us down
just like
their empty lives are now
make your way
to the studio and pool
if you don't turn back
by now you'll know what to do
i turned down the best the world has
at the last possible time
and you smile
but then you tell me bout how
(chorus)
(solo)
(chorus)
+
she tells me
you're not the one for me and
you can't expect to be but
til something changes you can stay with me
out in the
summer weather
neverender
you don't have to love it
just don't throw it away
yeah
well trust me
we'll never throw it away

what's say we go to town tonight
call up sebby and mike
yeah wait until your mom drops offs
then grab her keys and wallet
and we'll go out and have a good time
(chorus)
cos i want to feel like they advertise
their hand picked best shots of life
as far as i can tell
the only reason that we're friends
is so i'll feel the world's passing me by
tonight
i know that i'm no natural
i'm sorry i'm not your type
and no it don't escape me
all those memories you'd give me
i won't have when i look back in time
(chorus)
but i don't think that you're mysterious
i'm not impressed by your nights
it's just their point of view
thinking the best things we could do
are what they/we seem to do every night
(bridge)
brittany she broke up with me
when our attempts at intimacy
left marks on our necks to be seen
boiled over in a classroom scene
and i heard that you've
been through it all
i saw the pictures
on your wall
i dodged a bullet
after all
i guess i'm grateful
(solo)
(chorus)
hey rachel are you still listening
to you am i even alive
is there a world where you
say put on something we can dance to
and we burn something down pissed on wine
yeah yeah yeah

back when i heard about the ring
i made up my list starting with your name
and then i pointed to fate at the littlest things when
we worked in the mall or i'd give you a ride
when your friend flaked
(chorus)
randomize or change up the order
i'm not worried at all
it's my fault
if we go wrong
but then
why would you play the game
i don't know where
you've been sleeping
what you're dreaming
that's why we're in this thing
let's get to work now babe
jump to now and you've run away
call the Midwest home, i don't see your face
i know i shouldn't complain you weren't mine any day
but this link gives me hope that i can get in our head
from the rain
(bridge)
they'll never try to understand
they'll never touch the things we'll have
they'll never want you like i can
(chorus)

I Could Tell You

what goes in a verse
what makes it good enough to learn
when did the sum of my decisions
say i'd always know the words
just tell me what goes in a verse
that makes it more than keys and chords
what makes it feel like the redemption
i could never find before
and then there's
(prechorus)
i could be the one to save you darling
but more than likely you won't see me coming
(chorus)
i could tell you i knew
things won't work out
i could tell you i knew
you'd be here now
we charted a course
made up of mostly keys and chords
sure that the perfect combination
would keep you coming back for more
but then we got sidetracked by wars
that started closing every door
until we're stuck in between stations
asking how'd we get this far
and she says
(prechorus)
i could be the one to save you darling
but more than likely you won't see me coming
(chorus)
(bridge)
come on you got to try me out
come on you got to try me now
(chorus)
+
so put the glasses on
yeah we'll be real good friends
until the day it ends
you're all that's bringing me out
we'll take the present tense
and make it a contest
while we're stuck in the past
the future brings me down

living without you
won't work for long but
i can't help but notice
everyone you're not
we fell to the carpet
and never once bothered
to think we're wrong
we'd cling to the surface
like we don't deserve
what's been going on
round us
no one else matters
you can fill the role babe
if that's what you've been after
then you've got the wrong place
we tried to imagine
if things hadn't happened
like that would work
went out for some air to the surf
to be fair we were not in love
enough
(bridge)
and she is not the one for you
no she has just been there for you
just no one is calling when she's gone
and no one around here has been speaking up
this was supposed to be my
first three in one night
this was supposed to be you're
finally doing things right
(chorus)
the currents are stronger
than they ever bothered than they'd let on
the floor of the Atlantic
it's never been concerned
with what's above
we're calm

Nothing's Wrong

i made some real good friends
some time ago
and when my hard head falls
down to the floor
they may not come
right away running to my door
but the ball was always there
waiting in my court
but now one by one
they're going off
they found new bros
and beaus
tying the knot
now when i call in the morn
to tie one more on
they tell me whoa
what the fuck you thinking?
lately
(chorus)
they say nothing's wrong
but there's something wrong
and i'm supposed to just carry on
we had a real good thing some time ago
your hair was long
got along
and i wrote your songs
you came around
pulled me down
taught me what you know
and we lived far enough to be left alone
but as the years go on we're going down
you never laugh like they do you figured me out
now we're out
said I haven't heard a single thing
and i shout
that is so unlike me
over
(chorus)
she says something's wrong
but there's nothing wrong
yeah you're just asking for too much
i had me alone
and it's all my fault
but that's alright, don't paint it wrong
(bridge)
and i can take anything
if it's far and free from reality
i don't understand how you
all can take everything so seriously
but now i see the joke's on me
everything is changing but still for me
i only ever really want to know
one thing
do you like me like me
(chorus)
she says something's wrong
but there's nothing wrong
yeah you're just asking for too much
each word's so far off
from what i think i want
but i just don't know anymore

In Our Sleep
04:09

you got the looks to keep me on
i got something keeps you along
others use less to make up a start
now countless miles gone down the road
i'm scared to death to be alone
have no idea what's been on your mind
(chorus)
we're never gonna cry
never gonna die
they'll never speak of you and me
we're never gonna cry
never gonna die
we're safe and warm here in our sleep
we're never gonna cry
never gonna die
they'll never think of you and me
we're never gonna cry
never gonna die
we're safe and warm here in our sleep
the woe boy goes
whoa oh oh oh oh oh
the strangest things keep me going
we've gotten good being broken
those silver scenes they leave us behind
but some selfish wish deep inside me
is convinced someday I'll be ready
can't hear past the din of my designs
(chorus)
(bridge)
maybe we'll wake from the dream tonight
wake up and find out that there's still time
wake up and find out the world left us behind
so let's make a run for the morning light
to with dangers and strangers to hold us tight
well it's just my dream from last night for now we're
(chorus)

A Great Escape
06:10
|

so you've come of age
and you're face to face
with the wrong boy
but you're scared to stray
so you called it fate
so it's alright
(prechorus)
no one wants to be alone tonight
but something says
there's gonna be blood in time
(chorus)
it's not about who's right
everyone here is gonna die alone sometime
no matter how you try
make your excuse and move to the next warning sign
so you spend your days
saving what you make
for your crisis
when you're scared to stay
yeah i can relate
that's been my life
(prechorus)
no one save or take my life tonight
come what may say that the choice was mine
(chorus)
it's not about who's right
everyone here is gonna die alone sometime
but no one's asking why
everyone's sure that they're on to something tonight
(coda)
when our life
it beats
the last time for me
wish that i could say
my last thought is sweet
but this day to day's
what's consuming me
and i can't believe
in the little things
just say you're mine
