Long Distance Love

Tippy tapping on
Tippy tapping on
I don't want to stand on anybody's shoulders
I wanna be
The giant others stand on

I'm tired of being
A titan on my pinky size box
Bring me a shotgun
Because I'm gonna try it all
Except looking at the odds

You try and conquer worlds
From the backseat of your truck
Or sitting in a trailer park
Let me tell you, it's hard
Oh it's hard
Yeah it's hard
But
I'm gonna try

Tippy tapping on
Tippy tapping on
Tippy tapping on
On
Tippy tapping on
Tippy tapping on
Tippy tapping on

Tippy Tappy

Dial the furnace on
High temperature
Let's start to melt

No matter what you see of overhear
You get the thinnest glass
For your walls

Have the truth in front of you
No, it's not a mirage
Open your eyes

The way you see through it all
How can you be
So blind and so raw?

The rest will sleep in peace tonight
Indifferent
The rest will sleep in peace tonight
Indifferent
The rest will sleep in peace tonight
Indifferent
The rest will sleep in peace tonight
Indifferent

And The Wicked

What's that about a trip?
Is it through a rabbit hole?
Or through a closet door?

Don't care
Let's go

Do we need a mirror or a ring?
Do we go through a ledge?

Should I pack light
Or winter clothes?
Is it through a train station wall?
Or one of a thousand doors?

Do we drive this car fast
To the past?
Or do we take one of these pills?

Are we gonna leave a note?
So when people ask
Nobody is surprised
That we're gone

Un Nuevo Amor

And that's it
All the games you played were said and done
Don't mind me
I don't look the part but I am sad
And low

Bitter, mournful, somber, sorrowful
Blue, bereaved, distressed, and a little bit cold too

And I
I'm gonna turn the page for you
Cause this story has both of us or none

Let it be
Sink your teeth deep or spit it out
Swim ashore
I want this to work out as much as you
Or more

But I'm bitter, mournful, somber, sorrowful
Blue, bereaved, distressed, and a little bit cold too

And I
I'm gonna turn the page for you
Cause this story has both of us or none

The End

Dazed by the light and caught off guard
Looked down in a shivering frail
The first time it caught me in full
The next one let it take it all
And that's what you get with me

Free
Free

Jump from a plane thinking your arms
Can ground you safely on my lawn
You can cry and fight and make no sense
There's nothing I wanna change at all
And that's what you get with me

Free
Free

The Fringe I'm In

I turned to my left and saw some people
I haven’t seen, for a while
I hugged him, and you I smiled
And waved from afar

I scanned you from heels all the way
Into your eyes
And stayed there for a while

I got my insides steered wild
I was hoping to sweep you off your feet
But I found myself on my knees
Begging please
Talk to me for a while

I spent every chance I had 
To stretch it out
It was fun to see you fight
Your own rationale

I got my insides steered wild
I was hoping to sweep you off your feet
But I found myself on my knees
Begging please
Talk to me
Talk to me
and you did

Been

re-hear-se

Stay right there as I try and write this song
About you and me
It's fiction on its own

Weather through many bad tunes
As I fish and fly for feelings that are new

Let it sting and doubt as I pull the words
I'll twist and shout
And dance alone

How many times have you heard me sing this far?
As I figure out
The next part

A crucifix from a faith I don't belong
They've been lying
Lying

I don't want to take you this far
Without showing you
A glimpse of what's to come

So if you let me jot this down
I can sing to you
Sing it to you
