Wreck 04:40
I've been taken back before but I never waited around too long to try and settle up or score everything that's going wrong I hiked that trail before and it beat my brain to hell I don't think it came back oh well, I escaped a wreck Escape the wreck Sometimes the path directs that the key to happiness comes through fellowship with others but then the brain confides and sometimes at our own demise that we get scared, give up, and run for cover saying things like we'll never go back oh well, I escaped a wreck There's nothing left to satisfy if we don't know how to stand up and compromise Doing things we've done before that never worked and never would If we get it wrong once more we're gonna dust right off even if we thought that we couldn't I've been taken back before but I never waited around too long to try and settle up or score everything that's going wrong I hiked that trail before and it beat my brain to hell I don't think it came back oh well, I escaped a wreck Escape the wreck

Little birdy, why do you fly into the tree, into the tree? Little birdy, tell me, how is it you die underneath the leaves, underneath the leaves? When I was a yougun, I could not be shackled down the irony was all the detours only took me 'round and 'round I heard it might be lonely down there in the hometown on the map so far from me, hey, life is good from how it sounds And, I caught an old north wind down in Austin it was a double shot reality Hey, it might be cold in Colorado or wherever it is you decide to go As for me, I'm caught neck deep in a heap of something else because Oklahoma got all the snow Little spider, why build your web into the trees, into the trees? Little spider, why crawl around down there to bite me on the legs underneath the leaves, underneath the leaves? Well, I took a step outside tonight to catch my breath from the dark I tried to recollect my head after I read all your remarks I wanna go down to the river but the water is too low I bought a Chevrolet instead and now I carry all the load that's when I caught an old north wind down in Austin it was a double shot of reality. Hey, it might be cold in Colorado or wherever it is you decide to go As for me, I'm caught neck deep in a heap of something else because Oklahoma got all the snow

Peter 03:29
Tell me did you see where the old world broke and all came down like a flash of a stroke I just heard this sound but I don't know why I am crying And there are parts on the map of the unknown and they're tied to the things we're never showing and if the old rooster started crowing would I make it or would I fake it I watched the blind lines of fate pull you back every time it's neither fair nor required to separate from the grime I just heard this sound why am I crying I watched you rise from disaster then call yourself master I am lucky if it goes that way for me if the living conspires to crank up the fires would I make it or would I fake it It all depends on the angle for what makes your angel I've seen them fly up and fall down just heard this sound started crying I heard about a forgivness that wound up a business in nearly every single way hey, if the anchor goes down to save me from ground would I make it or would I fake it

Being Alone 05:00
Lately I don't know who I am I don't wanna meet her new beau or shake his hand She's got me so confused always wanting to talk but I'm happy to do it y'all like a dog going for a walk She could do just one favor for me I promise it'll be the only thing just go ahead now and cut me from the leash I promise to go away I will go away And I won't come back I'll keeping asking myself one question and it goes something like this: If I like being alone then why do I still miss her? x3 If I like being alone, alone then why do I care? Why do I go back? And, I'll ask myself that question until the day I die The man in the mirror he don't look the same to me his back his broke his legs are torn and he is afraid to see I feel like lately he's not growing anywhere every day that goes by is just another fucking day he finds it hard to care She could do just one favor for me I promise it'll be the only thing just go ahead now and cut me from the leash I promise to go away I will go away And I won't come back I'll keeping asking myself one question and it goes something like this: If I like being alone then why do I still miss her? x3 If I like being alone, alone then why do I care? Why do I go back?

Fever (Elvis cover) (free) 03:08
You never know how much I love you You never know how much I care You put your arms around me, yeah I get a fever that I can't bear You give me fever when you kiss me Fever when you hold me tight Fever in the morning Lord, fever all through the night The sun lights up the day time Moon lights up the day I light up when you call me name and I only wanna treat you right You give me fever when you kiss me Fever when you hold me tight Fever in the morning Lord, fever all through the night Everybody's got a fever, yes it's something we well know Fever ain't a new thing It happened a long time ago Think about when Romeo loved Juliet Juliet felt the same He put a arm around her and said "Julie, baby, you are my flame" You give me fever when you kisseth Fever in your flaming youth Fever I'm on fire I feel a little bulletproof Now that you've heard my story and all the good points I have made love was created to give you fever in fahrenheit or centigrade Fever when you kiss them Fever and you live and you learn Fever until you sizzle, yeah What a lovely way to burn What a lovely way to burn Lovely way to burn
