The Wheel

thought that i was the one
held my body to the light
couldn't write myself
out of my own life
met you at the bar
didn't have to go that far
to let you see me
wondered what you saw
was i shining
walked me home all the way
an expectation in your face
wanted it to happen
without my decision
something i couldn't say
kept my hand over the wheel
help me move it, let it spin
will i let you in
will it begin
soft breeze baby come back in
summer feeling on your skin
don't have to be the one
don't have to win
you don't have to win

Don't Want Your Love

don't want your love
don't want you to make me the one
don't want your touch
don't want you to see me undone
warm my hands by the fire
wake up i'm tired of desire
don't want your drug
won't pick up my body tonight
don't want your tug
walk myself away from the light
warm my hands by the fire
wake up i'm tired of desire
don't want your love
don't make me believe
don't want your love
don't want you to set me free
warm my hands by the fire
wake up i'm tired of desire

Drunk on the Patio

i thought i was new for you
we're drinking on the patio
just give me one line
i wish that i was more alive
like the way you seem to be
the way you say anything and it's enough
or it sounds good to me
it sounds good to me
why do you say it that way
why do you make me wanna change
the way i spend me days
tell me what should i do
you want love
but you don't want what goes inside of it
you want love
but you just want what goes on top
i want life
but i don't want what's inside of it
i want life
but i just wan't to stay on top
and it never stops
i thought i was new for you
we're drinking on the patio
it's not the end of the world
it's not the end of our lives
it's just the end of the day
it's just night
could i make you stay
could i make you wanna try
could i make you feel more alive

never felt i had all your love
seems like it always
passes me by in a rush
i could be gone any moment
sink into failure, pretend i chose it
well i tried to move
i always take a detour
then i get stuck
in the before
you look weary wish i could wake you up
seems like we're always missing
guess we'll have to make it up
you could choose it whenever you want
romanticize it, pretend the work is all done
well i tried to live
i always get in my own way
then i can't fit
so i just slip it off
slip away
slip, slip, slip
make a new plan, get out of the city
how do you do it, all this living
i think i loved you
did you notice
don't have to prove it
open the door just to close it
well i tried to stay
i can't seem to pick a direction
sought out your face
for a sign of life or just some recognition

Souvenir

i watch you nightly
like a tv show
as if you could find me
or tell me when i should go
i fill it up all the way
just to see if it runs clear
it all goes to the same place
why do i think it's not here
do i have to go out every night
i don't know where to be
do i have to live the same life
just to make sure you can see me
does it make you nervous
do we think we deserve this
dress up on the weekend
is this all we get
improvise paradise
no plans tonight
just look into someone's eyes
do i have to wish on every star
i don't think they can hear
do i have to wander so far
just to exit safe from fear
with a souvenir
