the sun is setting and the leaves are turning red sit on the windowsill and lean back on the bed cause things are changing, maybe it's warmer lately kick up the comforter, good morning to your toes sniff in the citronella, whistle through your nose cause it's not over, no sir you're just getting older and are you still lonely when you're alone? do you still fall asleep with your fingers on your telephone? cause when you stop, then you can talk talk talk, and act like a grownup and oh my God, haven't we grown up a little (Oh God we've grown up) at least I think so (and we're getting older) and this year, or the next won't change us but I feel in my chest that we're still the same two people you know that we're the same two people you know that we are zip up a jacket and forget you had a coat write up a paragraph on what you know because you know so much you're so in touch your friends are not the same old people that you knew don't be a stranger but be careful who you talk to credits

Wake You Up 03:57
can i wake you up? i'm tired of sleeping in and love's too expensive love cost you more than you could afford, and life's too expensive and i'm tired of sleeping in all we do is talk about, talk about it all we do is laugh at how, laugh at how funny it is can i wake you up? i'm tired of sleeping in all we do is skirt around, skirt around it all we do is act like it, act like it doesn't exist can i wake you up? i'm tired of sleeping in and we'd both agree that our love is expensive but i can't commit to the idea of quitting but is that commitment or just love's expenses has it just caught my attention?

Eyes Open 02:29
it used to be so easy to get bored now i'm just waking up disappointed with myself when it's past noon and it's okay with me if you wanna let me sleep today I've got nothing to do anyway so just pull down the shades close the curtains go away - go away - go away - go away i don't have problems, shut up unless you've got something to say and tell me how'd it get so hard to just stay awake chorus cause all your wildest dreams will only let you down and the summers back in high school are just memories now and no one's gonna love you when you leave this town so peel my eyes open when the sun goes down it used to be so simple but it's not and i think that maybe it's complicated cause i'm tired of being tired, and so are you and it's perfectly alright with me if you wanna be alone today i don't blame you, i don't blame you and if i was a man, i would know but i don't - but i don't - but i don't - but i don't i don't have questions shut up i don't have to fess up, okay i guess that i messed up and tell me how'd it get so hard to just say that chorus

Hopeless 04:29
i've been spending time thinking bout the time i spend on things that i despise and all the sleepless nights ambition cast aside for tv and wishing and dreaming but i'm still waiting on a sign like i believe in something like something believes in me but waiting is too easy and wishing is too easy and nothing which is easy will free me and this is where i turn around and make my way back to reckless and naive and i refuse to listen to the sound the future is loud but my friends are with me now and now will last awhile i used to never smile show my teeth, or be open to change but all of my friends are with me now i may lose my way, you know i've already lost it today just to be clear i admit to all of my crimes you know i've been a fool so many times when a hopeless romantic finds love then he's bound to start looking in places that he's not gonna find hope at all i'm always gonna fall it's not so hopeless after all thanks for all your patience you know that i've been trying so hard well, that's a lie, okay i'll keep this clean and i'll depict a different scene and i'll try to be something that i'm not right now but that's okay i'll get up in the morning and i'll only have to walk out the door one time and no matter how it goes well i have been a mess before and i'm good at being useless, but now i'm something more well i guess it's not so hopeless

i'm writing a love song with friends who think i'm wrong fall asleep with my head on the first step and sleeping's the first step to getting enough rest i can't seem to settle down in time and i'll give out advice to anyone who listens pretend all the wisdom's not frozen and open the floodgates to let out frustration frustrated at nothin, it's nothin and every other night you thought it was different but i'm gonna try harder next time and i can lay my head at the foot of your bed and never wake up and that'd be just fine that'll be just fine you're bearing a burden that's not really worth it can we just pretend you were in the wrong you don't have to sing along when we're driving to your house i'll give you space, you'll get your space and the look that's on my face is not what i mean to say i just mean to say you're better off this way you've just had enough to drink you're just laughing along at things you'd never think were funny and we're both out of money, it's just for different reasons you change like the seasons and still i refuse to listen, i'm sorry for not listening and every other night you thought it was different but i'm gonna try harder next time and i can lay my head at the foot of your bed and never wake up and that'd be just fine that'll be just fine and every other time that you thought that it was different well maybe, just maybe you had it all figured out this one time so put your feet down on the floor and dance around and wait for the sunrise
