We'll grow too old on our own The concrete held us to its yellow lines As we snuck through alleys stealing traffic signs We'll swim bare skin in the lake tonight Breathing hard while the stars reflect off our eyes We knew no carbon copy routine The world was new like our youth and the trees in spring We wore dirty clothes but our thoughts were clean A fearless child wrapped in smiles bursting out the seams It's just like when we were kids, isn't it, isn't it The sweetest taste on your lips, wasn't it, wasn't it Seems like we had it right then, didn't it, didn't it Before we worried about business We'll grow too old on our own I can't stop thinking about the other side It just seems to me like we had it right The leaves paint the street in the autumn light As we run with symptoms that speak of good times We'll vandalize everything in sight Then duck as we hide down the playground slide The secret spot is at the building site Where we'll laugh and we'll love until midnight It's just like when we were kids, isn't it, isn't it The sweetest taste on your lips, wasn't it, wasn't it Seems like we had it right then, didn't it, didn't it Before we worried about business We'll grow too old on our own

Here we go with all the stories Time to sleep it's almost morning People change just like the sunset Once it's dark I'm someone different Live the night just to be flashy Grease my hair and dress up fancy Might take long but I'm still fishing Time to find what they've been missing What they've been missing Why'd you take your time? Have you lost your mind? Have you lost Have you lost, this time? Feed the monster of attraction Start them young doped up on fashion Tied up hands but no real danger Do I meet standards of strangers Deep inside you hate pop culture Search for style like death and vultures Tie your shoes kids we're done tripping Time to find what we've been missing

In the Atlantic I felt like someone new I had the answers To the questions no one knew Under the covers I lay awake confused So many options But I only wanted you And I still don't understand When my life goes as planned I left my home, family, and my friends To try and fix something that's already dead Why can't you love me for the person I am Made up your mind, then I changed it again When I was younger I had the drive to dream The less that I knew The further I could see They say it's winter But it still feels warm to me I love the desert And I want to see the trees And I still don't understand When my life goes as planned I left my home family and my friends To try and fix something that's already dead Why can't you love me for the person I am Made up your mind then I changed it again Oh Ringarosa Don't you belong with me You're hearts an ocean But you left me on the beach Give me your life and I'll give what's left of me The waves are changing Changing our destiny And I still don't understand When my life goes as planned, yeah I had the answers To the questions no one knew So many options But I only wanted you

Mr. Reliable 03:44
Inside an office, outside the city Millions of raindrops collide with the buildings It starts with boredom, when lust overpowered her love She said he'll never find out, he works late hours I'll wear my best dress, the one with the flowers Come with me darling, we'll have the house to ourselves And I know That you're not alone But I'm coming home The saddest surpise When you see my blue eyes She said, how can you blame me, he's always busy This house has more rooms, than times that he's kissed me Promise me darling, we'll keep this all to ourselves And I know That you're not alone But I'm coming home The saddest surpise When you see my blue eyes She said he'll never find out, he works late hours I'll wear my best dress, the one with the flowers Come with me darling, we'll have the house to ourselves If love is a secret, then why can't I keep it? The saddest surpise

The Siren 03:27
On the cliff face I find your elevation Low maintenance dreams and aspirations Do my math right no miscalculations When our lips touch do you feel vibrations Silhouettes just standing and staring Sensitive bliss comforting and caring Whispered words when they're always worth sharing Her stories all but ordinary Should I be scared at all this might be the last fall And we'll see it through when I'm gone in June Falling slowly and the tide pulls me in for the kill Interstellar communication Brown eyes emitting information I'm a space man in a space station No air but you breath motivation Drew my sights she's a siren to acquire Glass ceilings burn down by her fire Played coquette but the flames only grew higher Wind storm and she pulls the masts tighter
