Second track off of Joseph EP, released August 13, 2015

Lyrics:
Take it from me, I’m the one who would know 
What to do in times like this 
Take it from me, I’m the one who was told 
I’d be used in times like this 

Take this time to think about who you are 
Take this time to thank the stars 
Take this time to think about what you are 

It takes time to count the stars 
And I know how hard it is to sleep at night 
And I know how bad you want to dream at times 
And I know how hard… 

Waiting for someone to come back 
Something like the giving tree 
Waiting for someone to come back 
Something like the giving tree 

Take it from me, I’m the one who would know 
What to do in times like this 
Take it from me, I’m the one who was told 
I’d be used in times like this 

And I know how hard it is to sleep at night 
And I know how bad you want to dream at times 
And I know how hard it is to close your eyes 

Waiting for someone to come back 
Something like the giving tree 
Waiting for someone to come back 
Something like the giving tree 

Is it selfish to say, at the end of the day when I put my head down 
And I rest it on the cloud that’s in front of me 
I feel just like Silverstein

Total Hell

Impossibility for Me

i can't quite figure out your reasons 
bent over backwards for her again 
is she the one? is she forever? 
or just the best that you can get? 

call her up on the phone daily 
she's got you under her spell again 
lost whatever backbone you had 
took the support she had to lend 

when the innocence fades, 
you'll see the fire she creates 
i hope you know 
i'm gonna tell you i told you so 

she's the devil man, you gotta understand 
she's the devil man, you gotta understand 
she's the devil man 
if i were you i'd run while you still can 

it's right beneath your feet 
rolling flames, gnashing teeth 
you'll recall, the chance ignored 
to be saved, restored 
don't sink into that pit 
stop falling, stop falling for her

She's The Devil

Outerspace Place
