I Thought I Knew You
03:57

You’re layin low now
Said your sorries and laid out just how
The story goes and left me to think about
How all along I was wrong, I was wrong
After careful consideration
Let me adjust all of my expectations
Because all I really know about you now is that
I was wrong, I was wrong –
Strange, I thought I knew you, Oh
Strange I thought I knew you
So strange, I thought I knew you
You never know anybody do you?
I must’ve misread every word
Or was I misled down every turn?
If only I could go back and see where
I went wrong, I went wrong
But you were the king of my confusion
Spun out a thread of my delusion
Never giving anything away at all until
You were gone, so far gone
Strange, I thought I knew you, Oh
Strange I thought I knew you
So strange, I thought I knew you
You never know anybody do you?
While you’re slippin through the cracks
I’m tryin to get you back
If I could just relax
I could hold onto you
Strange, I thought I knew you, Oh
Strange I thought I knew you
So strange, I thought I knew you
You never know anybody do you?
Strange, I thought I knew you, Oh
Strange I thought I knew you
So strange, I thought I knew you
You never know anybody do you?

Blackin' Out My Blues
04:00
|

What was I telling you?
Trying to get so close to you
What did you say to me?
Trying to have your way with me
I forgot to tell you
Woah, in the morning
Something bout the light
Oh, In the morning,
Doesn’t look quite right
Oh, in the morning
When I wake up next to you
I’ve been blackin out my blues, I’ve been blackin out my blues
You poured me another one,
One I won’t recover from
I didn’t want to fall behind,
But then I lost the story line
I forgot to tell you..
Woah, in the morning
Something bout the light
Oh, In the morning,
Doesn’t look quite right
Oh, in the morning
When I wake up next to you
I’ve been blackin out my blues, I’ve been blackin out my blues
What was I trying to make?
I didn’t make any memories, last night
I know I was wide awake,
But I let you get away, with me, last night
No, no, no no…(3)
Woah, in the morning
Something bout the light
Oh, In the morning,
Doesn’t look quite right
Oh, in the morning
When I wake up next to you
I’ve been blackin out my blues, I’ve been blackin out my blues

Reckless
04:08
|
|||
Drivin’ too fast, chewing on nicotine
You had cool plans, somewhere to take me
So of course I packed a bag,
And ignored all of the red flags
Keeping all the windows open
Couldn’t bear to see them close,
I couldn’t keep myself from hoping
Even while I felt so cold
Were you asleep at the wheel, all along
Now I see you in the rearview, and I got you so wrong,
Cuz you were pickin’ up speed,
And slammin’ the brakes down,
You drive so reckless, I should’ve known
Are you thinkin’ of me,
Puttin’ my foot down?
Cuz you drive, so reckless,
You shouldn’t be out here on these roads
I don’t know what you mean, don’t know how to move in reverse
So go on and flee the scene, I’ll hitch a ride with someone else
I’m tryin’ to take down all the details,
I’m throwin’ rocks at your windshield
Were you asleep at the wheel, all along
Now I see you in the rearview, and I got you so wrong
Cuz you were pickin up speed,
And slammin the brakes down,
You drive so reckless, I should’ve known
Are you thinkin of me,
Puttin’ my foot down?
Cuz you drive, so reckless,
You shouldn’t be out here on these roads
You shouldn’t be out here on these roads
I’ll take my broken parts to the auto shop of
Aching hearts and poor decisions
If I see you there, I’ll be sure to key your car
Wondering did you find another passenger,
and will she cause the same division By asking you, just what you are?
You shouldn’t be driving,
you shouldn’t be driving..
Cuz you were pickin up speed,
And slammin the brakes down,
You drive so reckless, I should’ve known
Are you thinkin of me,
Puttin’ my foot down?
Cuz you drive, so reckless,
You shouldn’t be out here on these roads
You shouldn’t be out here on these roads
You shouldn’t be out here on these roads
You shouldn’t be out here on these roads

Mind On Fire
04:50
|
|||
I am weightless, I’ve got no shadow,
I’m so, far ahead of my own fears
When I wake up in the afterglow,
You wouldn’t know me, you wouldn’t know me, after all these years
Don’t need no sleep, I’ve been up for a week
Don’t need no sleep ...
Cuz in this long light of summer,
my mind is on fire.. my mind is on fire
In this hot white, Technicolor, I never get tired,
Cuz my mind is on fire, my mind is on fire
I can do anything, I’ve got all the answers
I just can’t put ‘em down into words
And it’s a funny thing, if you saw me dancing
How I cut like a knife, through the world
Don’t need no sleep, I’ve been up for a week
Don’t need no sleep ..
Cuz in this long light of summer,
my mind is on fire.. my mind is on fire
In this hot white, Technicolor, I never get tired,
cuz my mind is on fire, my mind is on fire
If you see the warning signs,
Won’t you let me know, won’t you let me know
Sneak up on me, then I’m so alive,
won’t you let me go, won’t you let me go, woooahhh ..
Cuz in this long light of summer,
my mind is on fire.. my mind is on fire
In this hot white, Technicolor, I never get tired, I never get tired
Cuz in this long light of summer,
my mind is on fire.. my mind is on fire
In this hot white, Technicolor, I never get tired,
cuz my mind is on fire, my mind is on fire.
