Introduction
Let me hear it
Let me hear it
The Dance
Gone
Our dreams of second houses
Rising from the ashes were naive
It's wrong
To still feel spiteful
For all the tricks
You pulled out of your sleeve
I'll miss the dinners and
I'll miss the sinners
But the thought of you succeeding
Makes us sick
Gone
But not forgotten
The shit that you put us through
While smiling in the rear view
chorus:
I'm waiting (waiting)
For the dance
I'm waiting (waiting)
For the dance
I'm hoping (waiting)
Won't be the last chance
I'm waiting (waiting)
For the dance
Gone
Our youth supported
By late night jokes
On drives through the southeast
Gone
But not forgotten
Jilted in the corner
A loner
A goner
chorus
Gone
Thanks Epic Records
Our confidence was
Never laid so low
Gone
And it feels rotten
Standing in the corner
A loner
A goner
chorus
Waiting (waiting)
Sick of
Waiting (waiting)
Sick of
Waiting (waiting)
I'm tired of
Waiting (waiting)
Don't Call Her
It takes
Everything from me
It aches
Everytime I see
The smiles
Never reach her eyes
The sorrow
Everytime she tries
Each breath
Weighs a million stones
Mere feathers
Are skin and bone
Each beat
Of this breaking heart
It threatens
To break it apart
chorus:
But please don't call her
Across that water
And I won't say
It came from me
If I sailed
Oceans alone
If I gave up
Everything I own
If I crawled
For a thousand miles
Can I keep her
Just for a while
chorus
My heroes all are
Getting smaller
And I need some
That I can keep
It takes
Everything from me
It aches
Everytime I see
Everytime I see
chorus
My heroes all are
Getting smaller
And I need some
That I can keep
My heroes all are
Getting smaller
And I need some
That I can keep
Heart Like An Eskimo
The snow was late
Road crews stood ready
While the weatherman sealed his fate
Missed by 12 hours
I find that I
Can't look into your eyes
Until the storm goes by
chorus:
When it's cold outside
That's where I'll be
Behind my smile you'll never see
When it's cold outside
That's where I'll go
Brittle heart like an eskimo
My boots were dry
They kept me warm and safe
The salt trucks just flew by
I know you hate this place
I find that I
Can't look into your eyes
Until the storm goes by
chorus
This drink's to all second chances
This one's to storms and romances
I know you don't want to stay
But I just felt the first flake
chorus:
When it's cold outside
That's where I'll be
Behind my smile you'll never see
When it's cold outside
That's where I'll go
The only thing I've ever known
chorus
Johanna At The Door
(Spanish, I'm not even trying)
Door 2
Missed your daughter's birthday
Doesn't matter anyway
F*ck the secretary
By the coffee machine
Bought his wife a new car
She found his terms acceptable
Almost respectable
chorus
Say anything that we have to
We trade it away behind door 2
Doesn't matter what you say
As long as you get your way
Told the babysitter
You felt something akin to love
That's all she ever wanted
She took it willingly
Almost aggressively
Killed the family
chorus
We'll say anything that we have to
We'll wager it all behind door 2
Fine line
Hurts when
You comb your mind
Try to find
Go to
The front of the line
chorus
We'll say anything to be happy
We're selling it it all behind door 3
