01. Liar
you will always be forgotten
when you're in an empty room
you will always call me darlin'
when i push you down the stairs
and i’ll have relapses of your memory
and it’s getting awful bad
cause the money's in their eyes
and it’s in my tar stained heart
when i come up to meet you
don't believe a word i say
cause i’ll always be mistaken
when i turn away and lie
honey i’ll lie
so let’s sit down at the diner
and salute to better days
cause till then the clock is ticking
and the sound will drive us insane
02. I Call it Pain
what's got your heart
on fire
is it desire
can you feel it inside her
i call it pain
it stings like the rain
it’s fixing its aim
on us
but you can call it love
i know you call it love
you call it love
i know you call it love
you call it fame
it runs through your veins
escapes your mouth
just like smoke
and i call it pain
it stings like the rain
it’s fixing its aim
on us
and all i want is love
give me your love
all i need is love
give me love
03. I'm So Blind
come on can’t we see this through
there's ink on the page and that don't mean its true
read my eyes honey and know i'm through
i don't give up on you and we can make it through
black nights will never ease your head
gotta wait for the morning sun to help you out of bed
L.A. rain and smog will make you blind
you gotta drive all night with the radio on to know that you’re mine
your smile aint all that suits you
but it don't hurt the cause
whats got you down now i'm so blind
whats got your heart now we’re so cold
moving out of town will make it right
we settled here and we never could come back
always waiting for you to come home
when you’re here i never feel more alone
the sky looks like it could rain for days
this town is getting prettier every time i walk away
the TVs always shouting to turn me off
but the glow of pretty pictures got me mesmerized
04. It's Alright, It's Okay, There's Something to Live For...Jesus Told Me So
are you taken care of when you’re sitting on your knees
cement is getting harder when you’re standing in my way
walls are getting thinner when the flowers aren't in bloom
words are getting sharper when they slip from your teeth
that's alright
that's okay
i'm better off anyway
and i’ll still wait till i'm black and blue
or until i get a hold of you
hard wood echoes as you walk down the hall
taking down the pictures that were covered up in dust
i wish the breeze would blow through my window at night
it’s too cold to think and it’s not warm enough to fight
05. Tears Won't Fall
you didn't waste any time
writing me out of your will
25 days ago i quit caring about all the money you shoved down my throat
your street hasn't changed at all
thought you should know
that 25 days ago the town quit caring about all you left behind
voices drowning out and the day is closing in
time swallowed you up and then drew the shades again
we said our goodbyes now the tears won’t fall again
tears won’t fall again
you said all your goodbyes
left your estate in good will
only thing you wish you could take along with you
is that beautiful lady Berdine
06. Roses On My Grave
so where do you sleep at night
my hands are cold and my fingers are tight and I'm afraid
i'm lying by myself
my lips are blue and there's blood dripping from my ears
i can't hear you tonight
time hasn't been so good to us since it looks like were falling apart
i'm getting weak from my lack of faith i'm afraid i can't come back
i always thought you'd come for me when i started to lose my mind
and i was wrong cause i can't see you through these roses on my grave
can you keep me warm tonight
the ground is cold and my fever is high but you’re okay
the city sky is bright
it swallows me in then keeps me up at night
but you’re singing
and i'm listening
and we’re breathing
it’s alright
and I'm breaking
the grounds shaking
and I'm falling
right in
