A Thousand Hearts

You knew I would fall
Before I would break
And you knew it all
All that I could take
I don’t know why
I thought it was you
I’d change the hands of time
If only I knew
‘Cause I’ve seen the best and worst that’s inside of me
Dreams are all mixed up with reality
It could’ve been anyone
Been anyone
A Thousand Hearts could’ve bloomed here before
You came into view and it had to be yours
And all the wasted time is reminding me of
Searching for you in another’s touch
But if I knew then, what I know now
Then baby I swear I’d be making you proud
It’s taken some time, but now I realize
I’m yours
‘Cause if I knew then, what I know now
We’d climb to the top and we’d never look down
I was waiting for something
But it’s not for nothing anymore
I was chasing a light
From a star that’s out of reach
But you can’t stand how I just might
Not stay so weak
‘Cause I’ve seen the best and worst that’s inside of me
Dreams are all mixed up with reality
It could’ve been anyone
Been anyone
A Thousand Hearts could’ve bloomed here before
You came into view and it had to be yours
And all the wasted time is reminding me of
Searching for you in another’s touch
But If I knew then, what I know now
Then baby I swear I’d be making you proud
It’s taken some time, but now I realize
I’m yours
‘Cause if I knew then, what I know now
We’d climb to the top and we’d never look down
I was waiting for something
But it’s not for nothing anymore
‘Cause I’ve seen the best and worst that’s inside of me
Dreams are all mixed up with reality
It could’ve been anyone
Been anyone
A Thousand Hearts could’ve bloomed here before
You came into view and it had to be yours
And all the wasted time is reminding me of
Searching for you in another’s touch
But If I knew then, what I know now
Then baby I swear I’d be making you proud
It’s taken some time, but now I realize
I’m yours
‘Cause if I knew then, what I know now
We’d climb to the top and we’d never look down
I was waiting for something
But it’s not for nothing anymore

The Recipe
03:31

Who decided when the words came out?
You said I couldn’t have these selfish doubts, I know
But I’m thinking it’s the fact that I can
Your self destructing from the inside out
Never find a way to talk it out, I know
But I’m thinking it’s the fact that I can
But you wouldn’t waste away those thoughts I never had
and you wouldn’t waste away
Because it’s honesty and things you promise me
Always on a list and growing constantly
then I said
I thought our love was just a recipe
Who would’ve thought that it’d mean everything to me
You know you’re beautiful without that dress
If time is fleeting let’s embrace this mess
I know
And if that’s a fact you won’t need it at all
But you wouldn’t waste away those thoughts I never had
and you wouldn’t waste away
Because it’s honesty and things you promise me
Always on a list and growing constantly
Then I said
I thought our love was just a recipe
Who would’ve thought that it’d mean everything
And in the morning light we’ll turn the wrongs to right
Rearrange the odds and we can save tonight
I thought our love was just a recipe
Who would’ve thought that it’d mean everything to me
I wanna know what it’s like
To barely sleep through the night
And not have a care at all
And though I know it’s been said I’ve had these doubts in my head
But none that I can recall
Because it’s honesty and things you promise me
Always on a list and growing constantly
Then I said
I thought our love was just a recipe
Who would’ve thought that it’d mean everything
And in the morning light we’ll turn the wrongs to right
Rearrange the odds and we can save tonight
I thought our love was just a recipe
Who would’ve thought that it’d mean everything to me

10am once again and you're giving me the run around
I heard you said in your head that you wanna hear a different sound
The sun was hot
But you were so cold
We’re too young for this to be getting old
And you taste the same
We’ve been led astray
Thought that I realized that I’m not on my own again
Is it bad that I’m sad but I just don’t know why yet
I was looking up
You were looking down
You were breathing in
But I was fading out
Now you can’t deny
So I’ll ask why
When will my love just be enough?
When will my love not be a crutch?
If it’s not for you
Then I hope someone feels the way that I do
When will my love just be enough?
You used to smile with your eyes but there’s no shine anymore
There’s a pain that’s replaced the magic that was there before
Now I’m caught up
In the middle
Between a hard place
That should be simple
I’ve lost the words to say
But decided what’s best for me
When will my love just be enough?
When will my love not be a crutch?
If it’s not for you
Then I hope someone feels the way that I do
When will my love just be enough?
Now I’m caught up
In the middle
Between a hard place
That should be simple
It should be simple
When will my love just be enough?
When will my love not be a crutch?
If it’s not for you
Then I hope someone feels the way that I do
When will my love just be enough?

You hate to say it but you’re not okay
You love this game but you know that I won’t play
She’s 23 with a teenage dream
Another pull of this and it’s all done
And for the record in her eyes she’s second to none
From the pills, cheap thrills and nicotine
It’s like I’m digging up a picket fence
There’s nothing worse than losing confidence
I still lie awake with the memories
For crying out loud
Tell me something
You where all that I want
But now you made me believe
That I can’t depend on anyone after all
For crying out loud
What did you think
You say we’re changing, and I would agree
But how can you fight the feeling
When you don’t feel anything at all
Where can I put you in this one track mind?
I was growing comfortable with leaving you behind
In this never ending race?
But if I gave you what you want, would you remember my name?
You were indestructible, how’d you end up in flames?
And still try to lie straight to my face
My face, so
For crying out loud
Tell me something
You were all that I want
But now you made me believe
That I can’t depend on anyone after all
For crying out loud
What did you think
You say we’re changing, and I would agree
But how can you fight the feeling
When you don’t feel anything at all
It’s like I’m digging up a picket fence
There’s nothing worse than losing confidence
So stay close erase those memories
For crying out loud
Tell me something
You we’re all that I want
But now you made me believe
That I can’t depend on anyone after all
For crying out loud
What did you think
You say we’re changing, and I would agree
But how can you fight the feeling
When you don’t feel anything and
How can you fight the feeling
When you don’t feel anything at all
Anything at all
(Anything at all)

Criminal (Acoustic)

So what's it mean
When every dream I have's about you now?
I can't believe
You get to me the way you do somehow
It's criminal
Believe me
It's easy to let this go deeper
The taste could be sweeter, come on
You're too strong
And far gone
I'll keep my composure, just tell me
What this is really all about
I feel you tearing down
Castles in my head
While we're in different beds
So what's it mean
When every dream I have's about you now?
I can't believe
You get to me the way you do somehow
It's criminal
It's criminal
It's criminal
I'm sideways
Can I say you pull me to pieces
Just tell me your secrets, come on
For what it's worth
I'm most concerned with how you got me here in the first place
So what’s it really all about
I feel you tearing down
Castles in my head
While we're in different beds
So what's it mean
When every dream I have's about you now?
I can't believe
You get to me the way you do somehow
It's criminal
It's criminal
Believe me
It's easy to let this go deeper
The taste could be sweeter, come on
You're too strong
And far gone
I'll keep my composure, just tell me
What’s it really all about
I feel you tearing down
Castles in my head
While we're in different beds
And I'm a world away
Somehow you'll come find me
To close to stay on track
Tossing and turning back
It's criminal
So what's it mean
When every dream I have's about you now?
(Its criminal)
I can't believe
You get to me the way you do somehow
It's criminal
It's criminal
(For what it's worth)
(I'm most concerned with how you got me here in the first place)

Dead & Gone (Acoustic)
03:29

One year ago with a flower in hand
One year ago we wrote our names in the sand
The wind would blow your summer hair
(One year ago)
Once easy love, now you're making it rough
You know I try and say it's never enough
You left with ease and didn't care
(One year ago)
What used to seem like heaven
Feels like hell
I wanna breathe with ease again
I wanna finally get some sleep again
You only ask forgiveness after it's gone wrong
I need to get upstate again
I need to get my head on straight again
You only get redemption when you're dead and gone
When you're dead and gone
(When you're dead and gone)
Ten years from now we'll be tired and old
Ten years from now we won't ever leave home
Singing "I'll be there for you"
(Ten years from now)
Give me the one and only reason that could make me believe
You were everything I want,
But not the thing that I need
It's hard to say, it's sad but true
What used to seem like heaven
Feels like hell
I wanna breathe with ease again
I wanna finally get some sleep again
You only ask forgiveness after it's gone wrong
I need to get upstate again
I need to get my head on straight again
You only get redemption when you're dead and gone
When you're dead and gone
Nothing left here to say
Nothing to celebrate
Nothing left here to say
Nothing to celebrate
I wanna breathe with ease again
I wanna finally get some sleep again
You only ask forgiveness after it's gone wrong
I need to get upstate again
I need to get my head on straight again
You only get redemption when you're dead and gone
You only get redemption when you're dead and gone
Oh-Oh-Oh
Oh-Oh-Oh
(When you're dead and gone)
Oh-Oh-Oh
Oh-Oh-Oh
When you're dead and gone
