  1. 1Anesthetic4:22
    Lyrics
    ANESTHETIC
    
    i could use an anesthetic
    to clear my head
    something’s always bumping
    beneath my bed
    closing all the curtains
    and locking all the doors
    i could use an anesthetic
    to feel no more
    to feel no more
    
    ever have a day that just makes you want to scream and shout?
    I got the feeling that you knowing what we talking about
    
    you lurk alone long
    turn all your lights on
    smoke all your home grown anesthetic
    drink till you’re long gone
    make the music little louder when you hear this song’s on
    
    fate’s a kind of timing
    to raise your head
    it’s reason won’t be rhyming
    it’s season can’t be said
    i could use an anesthetic
    to close my eyes
    i use an anesthetic
    as my disguise
    
    ever have a day that just makes you want to scream and shout?
    I got the feeling that you knowing what we talking about
    
    you lurk alone long
    turn all your lights on
    smoke all your home grown anesthetic
    drink till you’re long gone
    make the music little louder when you hear this song’s on
    
    ever have a day that just makes you want to scream and shout?
    I got the feeling that you knowing what we talking about
    and the way we treat each other’s just a really kind of freaking me out
    being good to one another is the only way we’re working this out
    ..

    Something's always bumping beneath the bed: wanting to feel nothing for a while.

  2. 2Kill Me Nice3:43
    Lyrics
    KILL ME NICE
    
    Kill me nice, I thought I told you
    put the knife behind my shoulder
    it won’t be right, it won’t be over
    
    Give me back all those expectations
    I can use the wrap for my own defeat
    I’ll give you back congratulations
    and walk away while I grind my teeth
    did we use to be friends or was the killer underneath
    can you trust me agin, forgive me for my deceit
    
    Kill me nice, I thought I told you
    put the knife behind my shoulder
    it won’t be right, it won’t be over
    
    The poison crept in when we first started
    a defensive weapon for when we parted
    my cool wit timbre sells sophistication
    but i’m cold and i’m lonesome, scared of your hatred
    
    did we used to be friends? did we deal with this before
    Can you trust me again, it ain’t a friendship to keep score
    
    Kill me nice, I thought I told you
    put the knife behind my shoulder
    it won’t be right, it won’t be over
    
    well i went further cause i met you
    but i wouldn’t waste an hour to forget you
    my heart is meaner, did i upset you?
    
    i wish i could turn away from all the fear inside that makes me do what i do
    
    Kill me nice, I thought I told you
    put the knife behind my shoulder
    it won’t be right, it won’t be over

    A break-up asked for gently: put the knife behind my shoulder.

  3. 3Roses3:28
    Lyrics
    ROSES
    
    since the last time i sent my thoughts
    and called, called across
    what came and went between us lost
    now changes spent to sweet exhaust
    
    but now it’s time to disreguard this distance i held so hard
    
    you thought i sent you roses filled with thorns
    but i never meant to hold on for so long
    and now you steal my fire, but you’re my one desire
    
    I meant to sway love at all costs
    find a way to shine across
    beating back all mercy calls
    but holding fast is what hurts the most
    
    you thought i sent you roses filled with thorns
    but i never meant to hold on for so long
    and now you steal my fire, but you’re my one desire
    
    I took the ride and stole the horse
    calling costs and begging force
    now my time has spent this choice
    calling out til my voice is hoarse
    
    you thought i sent you roses filled with thorns
    but i never meant to hold on for so long
    and now you steal my fire, but you’re my one desire

    Roses filled with thorns, and a distance held too hard finally let go of.

  4. 4Out of Breath4:20
    Lyrics
    OUT OF BREATH
    
    Late last night, all alone
    simmer in my bed and I can’t sleep
    two strikes now but still falling slow
    phone lights up of reach
    
    you say “can you come over and kiss me goodnight, lay down my body and turn out the light”
    
    I’m out of breath, and I don’t know why
    calling out my number late last night and i can hear you sigh
    
    moving fast but still stuck somehow
    i don’t regret your silent reach
    don’t delay to show what you allow
    finding out what you can teach
    
    you say “can you come over and kiss me goodnight, lay down my body and turn out the light”
    
    I’m out of breath, and I don’t know why
    calling out my number late last night and i can hear you sigh
    
    JOHN: kicking it at home, woken up by the phone, elusive honey bunny called to tell me she’s alone
    what can i say, without a minute delay, i’m hitting the floor out the door without a second to waste
    anticipating what the evening could maybe just bring, as i keep fighting the need to continue to speed
    this bump in my chest says she’s not like the rest, this naughty hottie with the body got me all out of breath
    
    I’m out of breath and i don’t know why, i’m out of breath..

    Late-night texts, two strikes, and a phone that lights up out of reach.

  5. 5Alone3:53
    Lyrics
    ALONE
    
    she’ll run even if you change
    ain’t no way to gauge
    time passed wild while we drove on
    now time to turn the page
    no substitute for pain
    you earn your age on your own
    
    you feel alone in this mess
    i can see that you’re distressed
    but love is made to stand this test
    and you ain’t alone
    
    dark times are painful but never give up you can’t hide
    stay faithful, even this storm passes by
    you ain’t alone
    
    don’t try to earn her praise
    you’ll lie in bed awake
    your life needs faith in what you sow
    
    some friendships never fade
    but some turn from love to hate
    your heart might break you’ll never know
    
    you feel alone in this mess
    i can see that you’re distressed
    but love is made to stand this test
    and you ain’t alone
    
    dark times are painful but never give up you can’t hide
    stay faithful, even this storm passes by
    am i alone?
    you ain’t alone

    The album's hand on the shoulder: you feel alone in this mess, but you ain't.
