There’s so much silence in the valley
Go ahead and take it off the trees
It’s gonna make my voice sound different
So you can look after it
But I don’t know if my improv is any good, or kinda bad
I don’t know what you do to me
Guitars get acoustic sometimes
Guitars get electric sometimes
It only takes a few minutes to get across the river
It only takes a few minutes to get into the sky
I don’t trust you, you don’t trust me
We don’t trust that other guy
We don’t know what to do sometimes
So everybody clap your hands two times
I went to Disney World in 1999
I shook hands with the characters waiting in line
I feel like a character sometimes
Guitars get electric sometimes
Guitars get acoustic sometimes
Guitars get electric sometimes

Candle

Can’t be too certain
Can’t be too serious
Scratching along the surface
Feeling like I lied
Can’t be too certain
Feeling like a downpour
Can’t be too serious
Walking with my life
Scratching along the surface
Behind my back and sides
Feeling like I lied
Why
Feeling bad
Don’t know if I can handle it
Holding onto the candle
Seeing it all again
I remember what happened back then
When we were going through it
Seeing it all go down
Singing it all mysteriously
Why am I so much, and now know
When I can’t take control
Why
Feeling bad
Were
Going through it
So I’m not feeling bad
Why
Feeling bad
Were
Going through it

Angel
03:46

What’s gonna keep me going
I’m an angel in the outfield
No one is hitting it hard enough for me
I am overflowing
Gotta get a little high to sleep
Gotta bother friends every week
Can’t focus enough
Rollin’ ‘round town like a big dog
But I wanna cry so much
Rollin’ round town like I did so in love
I’m rollin round town like I’ve been so in love
It only makes sense to go out
Can’t focus enough on me
Last night I saw the morning
Slept late into the sunshine
That doesn’t happen every time
I missed a day of your patrolling
Newspaper in the trash can
Threw out my master plan
I don’t know what’s up
But I’m rollin’ ‘round town like a big dog
and I wanna cry so much
I’m rollin’ round town like I did so in love
I’m rollin’ round town like I’ve been so in love
It only makes sense to go out
Say “hey what’s up” for me
When you go out there, where you don’t feel so alone
And you know you can’t force it on your own
Look for angels on your way back home
Can’t force it enough
I’m rollin’ ‘round town like a big dog
But I wanna cry so much
I’m rollin’ round town like I did so in love
I’m rollin’ round town like I’ve been so in love
It only makes sense to go out
Can’t force it enough on me

Baseball Player

There's gotta be a picture in my head
Trying to remember what you said
We’re staying inside with rubber bands
The keys are in the van
It’s gotta be made in a small batch
There's gotta be a chicken that has hatched
It’s gotta be a baseball player's catch
Comedians cry, computers can’t
The median is “and”
Another day with stencils in your hand
And you'll be back and forth forever
In the mode of transportation you stand by
Horns and strings, it's a rather deep appearance
Driving through the countryside before the news broke
Have you got anything better to do?
Your eyes are all over the ceiling
Humidity's hot, and you can't just give it to the dead
Warm your way to nothing in an instant
There's gotta be something about the rules
There’s gotta be something you need some tools for
There's gonna be everything you want and more
Comedians cry
You'll be back and forth forever
In the mode of transportation you stand by
Horns and strings it's a rather deep appearance
Driving through the countryside before the news broke
And we’re circling round the horn again
Through a line of communication you stand by
Pull some strings, it's another interference
Walking in the city and lying in the countryside
You'll be back and forth forever
In the mode of transportation you stand by
Horns and strings, it's a rather deep appearance
Walking in the city, and lying in the countryside
Before the news broke

Research

I’m in the clouds
So I’m gonna do a bit of research
I’m upside down
My head is sticking out of the gate
Head is sticking out of the gate
I’m upside down
My head is sticking out of the gate
Gonna do a bit of research
(It’s so nice)
(In the verdant valley heights)
There’s no way to go out to space
But if I wanted to in the first place
I’d have it my way
I’m in the clouds
So I’m gonna do a bit of research
I’m upside down
My head is sticking out of the gate
Head is sticking out of the gate
I’m upside down
My head is sticking out of the gate
Gonna do a bit of research
(One, two, three, four)

Water Pressure

One thing’s for sure I sure am lucky
This is who I’m gonna be
Even though I’ve got low self esteem
This is what I wanna see
What am I gonna do?
Good water pressure could come through
Who and what do I belong to?
Sticky tack, tape, and glue
Burning up some CDs for my friends
Icing up my broken heart again
I pretend to say when
I wanna know if you can hear my voice
Coming from the other end
Don’t pretend, say yes
One thing’s for sure, I sure am hungry
This is what I’m gonna eat
Filling up my cup with something to drink
Why do good times sneak up on me?
Dreams can come true
Good stereo system and a point of view
Who and what do I belong to?
Sticky tack, tape, and glue
I’m just burning up some cds for my friends
Icing up my broken heart again
I pretend to say when
I wanna know if you can hear my voice
Coming from the other end
Don’t pretend, say yes
I’m just burning
Burning up some cds for my friends
Icing up my broken heart again
I pretend to say when
I wanna know if you can hear my voice coming from the other end
Don’t pretend, say yes

Common Ground
02:52

I’m so available, I’m so on the nose
I’m so adaptable on sandy open roads
I check for counterfeits
I leave those fools behind
There’s no debating it, we’re losing our minds
I’m so consistent, you can sit on top of the pile
It doesn’t have to be kilometers and miles
If everything goes according to plan
Then I guess I can be the accordion man
Common ground
If it takes all night
Common ground
Just steaming in the pipes
Break easy for me
Yeah I guess I can see common ground
What’s up America, I’m on a TV show
I’m hip to criticism anywhere I go
Eating at the dinner table feeling sort of lost
And it brings me way back to when my friends played lacrosse
I’ll be seeing myself wrapped up in tie-dye
I’ll be a taxi driver honking at the sky
Grief sets in at the department store
while trying on some shoes
as if I look like I know what to do
Common ground
If it takes all night
Common ground
Just steaming in the pipes
Break easy for me
Yeah I guess I can see common ground
Common ground
If it takes all night
Common ground
I’m freezing in the pipes
Make it easy for me
Yeah I guess I can see common ground

Wishes to Fulfill

Mumbling guys aren’t going to lie
Watery eyes aren’t going to cry
I could just stand here but I should try
To look like I’m gonna go fishing
Act like I’m gonna do the dishes
Sounds like I’ve got a lot of wishes to fulfill
Walking ‘round town with a lot of missed calls
Worried for the way that I’m living because
The coffee and champagne are doing big things
You look like you’re gonna go fishing
Act like you’re gonna do the dishes
Sounds like you’ve got a lot of wishes to fulfill
It’s so nice to feel like it doesn’t matter
You can find it on my pattern
It doesn’t seem to try
Doesn’t seem to matter why
You look like you’re gonna go fishing
Act like you’re gonna do a the dishes
Sounds like you’ve got a lot of wishes
Last night I saw two people kissing in a dream
And I woke up I was on a mission
Last night I saw two people killing in a dream
And I woke up, I had a premonition
Last night I saw two people killing it
To fulfill

(Big store)
Don’t wanna see you pass poor judgment
(Big store)
I wanna see you smile on trial
Everything you thought was lost is actually running from you
They stick into the ground
They ship it over the ocean
They turn you inside out
They make you do the locomotion
You’ve gotta have a sense of humor
I’m not talking bout Know Your Memes
(Memes, Memes, Memes, Memes)
Big store
You don’t need to leave your lights on
I don’t need to get my drink on
But I’m gonna do it anyway
But you’re gonna do it anyway
Big storm
You don’t need to make it rain and pour
I don’t need to even up the score
But I’m gonna do it anyway
You just watch me
They stick into the ground
They ship it over the ocean
They turn you inside out
They make you do the locomotion
Big store
You don’t need to leave your lights on
I don’t need to get my drink on
But I’m gonna do it anyway
But you’re gonna do it anyway
Big storm
You don’t need to make it rain and pour
I don’t need to even up the score
But I’m gonna do it anyway
You just watch me
