7in7, Session 5, Day 1.


VERSE 1:
I heard your mother died
I probably should’ve called
But I wasn’t sure what I might say
Or if you’d answer at all
So I just wrote a few words
And sent them how I could
Then convinced myself that I had done
Everything I should

CHORUS;
Well, nobody wins if I confuse
Losin’ friends with loose ends
Concerned with who sent
What to whom and when
What to whom and when

VERSE 2:
Maybe you were tied up
Or too frayed to know where to begin
Maybe I was right to
Be afraid that it would mean the end
Of all the hurt that I still clinch
So tight within my fists
Just a waste of all the time I’ve spent
Tryin’ to forget

CHORUS;
Well, nobody wins if I confuse
Losin’ friends with loose ends
Concerned with who sent
What to whom and when
What to whom and when

VERSE 3:
I heard you finally met a girl
And you made her your wife
Even adopted her little boy
Livin’ a whole new life
And I’d be lying if I claimed
It doesn’t hurt me at all
That I don’t even know their names
Cause you never bothered to call

CHORUS;
But nobody wins if I confuse
Losin’ friends with loose ends
Concerned with who sent
What to whom and when
Said nobody wins if I confuse
Losin’ friends with loose ends
Concerned with who sent
What to whom and when
What to whom and when

TAG:
I heard your mother died
I probably should’ve called

What, To Whom, and When

7in7, Session 5 - Day 2

VERSE 1:
Sometimes I realize
That I’m holding my breath
Or that I’m furrowing my brow
Or that I’m thinking about death
Oh and much to my surprise
Once again I’m in over my head
With no real sense of how
Else to live instead

CHORUS:
Oh but something’s gotta give
It’s all labor and no rest
This is no way to live
There must be something less

VERSE 2:
I grind my teeth at night
Hold tension in my shoulders
I blame it on my bed
Or say I’m just getting older
And I’m sure I’d feel just right
If the room was a little colder
Or I’ll sleep when I’m dead 
Or when life is a little slower

CHORUS:
Yeah but something’s gotta give
It’s all labor and no rest
This is no way to live
There must be something less

BRIDGE:
I feel like I’m drowning
I feel like I’m failing
I feel like I’m losing what remains
It’s leaving me breathless
It’s leaving me restless
It’s leaving me desperate for a change

CHORUS:
Cause something’s gotta give
It’s all labor and no rest
This is no way to live
There must be something less

There Must Be Something Less

7in7, Session 5 - Day 3

VERSE 1:
I’m a pacifist, tempted with violence
An advocate tempted with silence
A competitor tempted to quit
I am an honest… an honest counterfeit

VERSE 2: 
I am a rebel tempted to comply
A believer tempted to deny
I am a lover tempted with hate
I am… a legitimate fake

CHORUS 1:
I am both/and
Capable of all
The good and the bad
Oh, the big and the small
The crimes that I’d condemn
In any other man
They all live within
Cause I am both/and

VERSE 3:
I’m a liar clinging to the truth
A middle-aged man clinging to my youth
I am a cynic clinging to God
I am a genuine… a genuine fraud

CHORUS 1:
I am both/and
Capable of all
The good and the bad
Oh, the big and the small
The crimes that I’d condemn
In any other man
They all live within
Cause I am both/and

CHORUS 2:
Both/and
Capable of all
The best and the worst
Oh, the rise and the fall
The crimes that I’d condemn
In any other man
They all live within
Cause I am both/and


Both/And

7in7, Session 5 - Day 4

VERSE 1:
Hey Mom, you pissed me off last night
When you walked me up to the third floor
You treat me like the rest of these jerks
I’m disappointed, cause I expected more
You left me there in the middle of a storm
Hangry, sad, and all alone
You let your stress get the best of you
Yes, I did too, I guess that’s true
But Mom, I’m only 8 years old

VERSE 2:
My brother is an asshole sometimes
He’s always tryin’ to start a fight
He acts innocent after the fact then convinces
Everyone to turn their backs and join in on the gaslight
They say mean words and stare me down
With faces so angry and cold
They call me names and pass the blame
And I did the same, but i’m not ashamed
Cause Mom I’m only 8 years old

CHORUS:
I should not be held responsible
For the emotional responses of adults
I’ll clean my room and pack my bag
But you can’t ask for much more than that
After all I’m only 8 years old
If you do, then I’d just as soon be home alone

VERSE 3:
Officer, what are you chasing me for
Treating me like some kind of thief
Ya I took a toothbrush from a convenience store
But don’t you know there are real bandits in these streets
I did not mean to steal a thing
I would never be so bold
Just got scared of the Shovel Slayer
So I got my little ass out of there
After all I’m only 8 years old

CHORUS:
I should not be held responsible
For the emotional responses of adults
I’ll clean my room and pack my bag
But you can’t ask for much more than that
After all I’m only 8 years old
If you do, then I’d just as soon be home alone

VERSE 4:
Uncle Frank…. what’s your deal man?
That’s no way to talk to little boys
We’re family but I can’t relate
To some cheapskate with a heart of hate
Who’s way too quick to raise their voice
I think about the words you said
In that condescending tone
Makes me wish I could tell you this
Uncle Frank, you’re a mean old son of a bitch
But man, I’m only 8 years old

CHORUS:
I should not be held responsible
For the emotional responses of adults
I’ll clean my room and pack my bag
But you can’t ask for much more than that
After all I’m only 8 years old
If you do, then I’d just as soon be home alone

MANGLAR
Unos cuantos pasos en la arena
y al fin llego al encuentro mágico
En esta playa tranquila desierta
no da tregua el sol ardiente, tranquila

Pero de repente llega la fuerza
del huracán, de la tormenta

Me siento seguro, me siento protegido
Por ti. manglar, bosque de manglar

Pero de repente llega la fuerza
del huracán, de la tormenta

Me siento seguro, me siento protegido
Por ti. manglar, bosque de manglar
