Dust Cloud 03:28
lyrics

Dust Cloud (On My Grave) When the dust cloud settles in I'll know it's for me It was always for me And when she comes with flowers in her hair I'll know they're for me They were always for me You could fit it in your brain They'll cut it out anyway And if you find your thing to do They'll come and take that from you too When the dust cloud settles in I'll know it's for me It was always for me And when she comes with flowers in her hair I'll know they're for me They were always for me It's feast or famine, I suppose And where we go, no one knows It takes a town to raise a child But one man to apologize When the dust cloud settles in I'll know it's for me Because I misbehaved And when she comes with flowers in her hair I know they'll be on my grave

Big Fat Lesson (Daddy Deadbeat) You don't know what it means to make a scene No, you don't know a thing, so just listen to me You don't know what it means to leave your home You don't know how you could ever live alone Bambi eyes, gypsy queen Call me daddy deadbeat Desert rose, it was all a tease Putty in my hands, it was willingly Don't get me wrong, it's a part of me Your one true big fat lesson You never gave a shit about counting sheep You never cared a bit because you never ever lose sleep You always wanted all your dreams to come true You always needed someone lying right next to you Bambi eyes, gypsy queen Call me daddy deadbeat Little girl, you're just a kid Pretty soon you'll see why I did what I did But until then, I'll just keep it hid And leave you with a big fat lesson Bambi eyes, gypsy queen Call me daddy deadbeat Desert rose, it was all a tease Putty in my hands, it was willingly Don't get me wrong, it's a part of me Your one true big fat lesson (yeah)

Away (Patio Chairs) Where do we go from here? We all know the really big part of it Where do we go from here? We don't dare attempt to say a thing Forget about yourself for a while I'm going away from you I'm going away Away, away I know better than to ask We all know who had put you up to this I know better than to ask We don't agree with one single word of it Bring the chairs inside the house before it rains I'm going away from you I'm going away Away, away

Family Tree 02:53

Family Tree (Poison Pill) You are always asking "why?" When you mean to say "don't" The smallest room in the house Always costs the most You had better close your mouth Before the flies get in Missed that mark again A poison pill You have got a laundry list of things you see wrong Life's so easy when all you do is judge Who you gonna be when everyone is gone? You don't have to go so soon But you can't stay here The apple didn't seem to fall Far from the family tree

Heavy Breathing (Stay With Me) Heavy breathing, stay with me Heavy breathing, heavy breathing How you comfort me Heavy breathing is all I feel when you're around Heavy breathing, it grips my body from the neck down Heavy breathing is all I hear and all I ever really sing Heavy breathing got me talkin' so fast and it says the wrong things Your eyes open wide and swallow every part of me All this excitement but you never even feel a thing Not fair, not fair Heavy breathing, stay with me Heavy breathing, heavy breathing How you comfort me Heavy breathing, it makes me heart race and beat so fast Heavy breathing got my stomach in knots, and can really last Heavy breathing, it boils my blood and then my hands start to shake Heavy breathing makes the hairs on my neck stand up and my muscles ache Your eyes open wide and swallow every part of me All this excitement but you never ever feel a thing Not fair, not fair Heavy breathing, stay with me Heavy breathing, heavy breathing How you comfort me

Brand New Start (Tails of Lions) Pitching a fit, can you picture it? Handed your hat, now imagine that Dove in at once, there lies the problem Life only shows the tails of lions Give it a go, get you good Only just once, more than it should You'll spend it all, you'll throw it away A brand new start, a new life today You'll have a brand new start

Stranger (Evermore) You're a stranger, I didn't know It's like you've always got a place to go You're a viking on new shore Loud knocking at the door You're a stranger evermore I'm a stranger, like machinery A loyal friend but never free I'm a jealous rage inside All the enemies in life I'm a stranger, I can't hide Even when you're alone with me We just can't seem to find what used to be We are shadows on the wall An unexpected call We are strangers and that is all Even when you're alone with me I just can't seem to find what used to be You're a viking on new shore A good friend out the door You're a stranger evermore

Good People 04:03
lyrics

Good People (Paid Bills) How about some honesty, and a little more modesty How about less egos, how about more heroes Someone who's humble, someone who cares Someone who gives and gives, someone who shares Well, I don't think that's asking for much Try common courtesy, without all the irony A little bit of decency, one act of chivalry How about some manners, the things that matter Just some good company, or a bit of privacy Well, I don't think that's asking for much No, I don't think I'm asking for much Someone less cynical, someone less critical Someone less typical, less hypocritical Someone to stand up for me, without getting the best of me Someone with sympathy, someone with empathy Well, I don't think that's asking for much How about a heart that's kind, how about an open mind Someone who's truthful, and who I can root for Someone who is real, someone I can feel With an understanding, one that's never ending Well, I don't think that's asking for much No, I don't think I'm asking for much

What You're Like (Picking Fights) I don't mind what you're like It's no one's fault, but you say it's mine You are picking fights before the problems come You don't like the answers, that don't change them none For me You can't be that naive And don't put it all on me I can't deceive I scraped my knees A worn out point, stretched real thin With blinders on, irrational mess You say things out loud to convince yourself It's beyond all reason and thought process To me You can't be that naive And don't wait up for me I can't deceive I won't believe I'm in the weeds I scraped my knees I don't mind what you're like
