I found our pictures that we took in high school
They're fading fast like we knew they would
Walking by coffee shops and where we would meet
The laughter and old friends are foreign to me
All the years
All the stories built here
I'm calling I'm calling
For you for you
I stared at the messages that went up and down my phone
Back and forth like a movie script from a long time ago
You're disappearing as our distance grows far
Why do our friendships always die hard
Chorus
My phone call's waiting I know you're there
In Baltimore I still care
About what came before we left our hometown
In Baltimore we sang our hearts out
I'm calling from Philly
Feeling lost cause you're not there
I'm losing all that we used to share
I know all the places we walked
Regrets over all the things we never
Cherished when we were so fucked up
Reckless and happy and dumb
Chorus

Caulfield
04:13
|
|||
|
Everyone is moving fast and now I'm left behind
Fading in my arrogance and insecure derision
Losing all the faith in my hopes and my intentions
I'm working until nothingness I feel like a phony
All around the city lights are the embers of my dreams
Looking for the ghosts that follow me up on the streets
Adding all the little things that lead to apathy
I'm standing on the cliff and there is no one to catch me
I felt my reflection I felt it alright
Caulfield, Caulfield
Where is your suit and tie?
Did you waste your life like I wasted mine?
Caulfield, Caulfield
Do you feel alright?
Did you justify the lies in your eyes?
Caulfield, Caulfield
And all around I'm searching for some sort of stable vision
And I'm feeling like my burning heart's been extinguished into pieces
And everyday feels sunny, then I'm punched right to the ground
All the things I've written up are casted into doubt
Chorus
So tell me Holden, do you feel emboldened?
Like I was so many years ago?
Feeling so jaded and also overrated
I feel like a phony

Burn Out
04:12
|

|
I saw the modern walls scrapping all the plans I made
On the runways of yesterday I found myself slipping
Tearing downs my prospects of these white pickets fences
I'm laughing at the TV of the bullshit of tomorrow
I want to burn out
I want to think less
It's always on my mind
I want to fall down
I want to be spent
It's always on my mind
Looking for the things that used to comfort me
It's always on my mind
Never want to be within reality
It's always on my mind
Here we go again the same old problems shuffling in
We're stuck in the same old cycle and it's false promises
I'm punching the modern walls and it's lies and expectations
Raising my fist to the eyes of the old generation
Chorus
Somewhere out there I'll find luck
But right now I want to say I'm done
I don't care about destiny
I just don't want to feel like me
Chorus
Tell me why I have to try
Tell me where our thoughts would lie (Its always on my mind)
Inside the lines that I have pried inside my head inside my head (it's always on my mind)
Tell me why I have to try (We're jaded, All the time)
Tell me where our thoughts would lie (Its always on my mind)
Inside the lines that I have pried inside my head inside my head (it's always on my mind) (we're jaded, All the time)

Motivation

Oh no, it's gone, all my motivation
Lost within the years I had
I'm a cog in this machine, broken in my energy
I just really want to go to sleep
Tell me what's next, chained to a cubicle desk
Losing all my faith in this system
Am I like everyone else? Faded from what I can tell?
I've been going through the motions again
It's alright, it's alright
I'll just be here wasting time
I found the paper on the desk there waiting
Numbers and figures are all that defined my life
They got my whole life on paper
I owe the future nothing when the past had everything
Stuffed within the white collar again
Chorus
Bills and debts and 401K's
Turning the file report to my mind's decay
Breaking my back on these useless degrees
At the end of the day they don't mean anything
Oh no it's gone
Motivation
Chorus

Dancing In The Rain
04:25
|
|||

I'm standing here in the parking lot just thinking of another memory about you
I know that I've been doing that a lot lately and I'm falling down
I wish I could make up more time to make these memories come alive
But I know that's just wishful thinking so I'm here sleepless tonight
Yeah here's to the stories we made that fell right to the ground
And these stars are watching me as I feel the rain come down
And I could watch the world go by since I don't care about time
Since the future to me means nothing anymore
I got a lot to say but it don't matter
I'll just remember the things that never made a difference
In the end, in the end
In the end, in the end
You pulled me out of my car and we danced to the silent beat
In the middle of the rain
I got so sick from that night but you made me feel better
But not today
I got a lot to say but it don't matter
I got a lot to say but it don't matter
I want the feeling of dancing in the rain
I need the feeling of dancing in the rain
I love the feeling of dancing in the rain
I miss the feeling of dancing in the rain
