Alison, I've tried to let you know
That I am here, I won't let you go
It's taken time for me to see
Everything that you might mean to me
So much has happened and we'll never know why
But we're not young anymore
Now we've given it a try
Who knows what life has in store
Never a day goes by, when I…
Never a dream I've had, when I…
Always I believe
And never could I conceive, when
I don't think of you
When I, don’t dream of you
Alison I’ll always think of you, and I
A look at you makes my heart soar
You're my sun and stars and so much more
I see my whole life in you
And everything I thought I always knew
Whatever the world might throw in our way
I'll be there to hold you near
When it comes down to it at the end of the day
You're the thing I hold most dear
Never a day goes by, when I…
Never a dream I've had, when I…
Always I believe
And never could I conceive, when
I don't think of you
When I, don’t dream of you
Alison I’ll always think of you, and I
I never knew
What this could be
I never saw
The You in Me
Never a day goes by, when I…
Never a dream I've had, when I…
Always I believe
And never could I conceive, when
I don't think of you
When I, don’t dream of you
Alison I’ll always think of you, and I
Alison I’ll always think of you, and I
Alison I’ll always dream of you, goodbye

I Am Your Weakness

Where to begin
The lies only hint at my sins
The way I've worked myself into your skin
I could tell you now
You've bought into me
Led you down the path with every story
You've lost your footing on my territory
I could break you now
I love the way that you cry
When you're running to me and
I turn and leave you behind
Hold me my dear
I do my best at playing sincere
Whisper hurtful nothings into your ear
And make you need me now
There is no end
No big reveal that you'd comprehend
Just a morality that I will transcend
I could break you now
I love the way that you cry
When you're running to me and
I turn and leave you behind
But that's not the end of the game
I know I am your weakness
and I will toy with your mind
I know you will never leave
I love the way that you cry
When you're running to me and
I turn and leave you behind
But that's not the end of the game
I know I am your weakness
and I will control your mind
and I will control your mind
and I will control your mind

I Know I Am Done

Lay me down upon that river
Lay me down upon that shore
Wreath my body all in flowers
Send me off forevermore
Say goodbye, all my lovelies
Say goodbye without no tears
Light the pyre and look to heaven
All your prayers I wish to hear
I know I am done
All my time has run
Lift me to the banks of Jordan
Cleanse me Lord of all my sins
Here on Earth my Holy Father
Spread me to the swirling wind
Comfort all the ones I've cherished
All the ones I've ever loved
At the gates I'll look down on them
Look down from on high above
I know I am done
All my time has run

Mennonite Mob
03:41
|

I was driving through Amish Country
A scenic route off the Interstate
Came upon some quaint little uprising
They appeared quite irate
I don't know what they want, and I don't really care
Cause there's a deadly look of purpose written in their stares
And the Mennonite Mob is coming after me
Chasing me with pitchforks and their horses and buggies
I don't know what to do, I don't know what to say
To make that Crazy Amish mob just go away
Normally, I'd just outrun them
But they've disabled my car
And they've got me surrounded
Man, this is really bizarre
It seems that I've offended, even if I don't know why
Turns out that turn the other cheek was really just a lie
And the Mennonite Mob is coming after me
Chasing me with pitchforks and their horses and buggies
I don't know what to do, I don't know what to say
To make that Crazy Amish mob just go away
just can't see a happy ending
Feel like I know what's in store
Never thought I'd meet my fate weekending
Damn, this wasn't in the brochure
And here I am narrating from a shallow grave
If you drive by on I-90, please be sure to wave
Because the Mennonite Mob is coming after me
Chasing me with pitchforks and their horses and buggies
I don't know what to do, I don't know what to say
To make that Crazy Amish mob just go away

Cannot
04:38

Sun rises over mist-draped hills
For the moment we are near
Day breaks, the real world sets in
How did we get here?
We're in different places in more ways than one
Every ending to the story's already been sung
Try as I may I cannot be what you need me to be
It's out in the open and where do we go now?
We were perfect when we started
And we will be when we land
As soon as I know I can show you how
You could be all I'd ever wanted
In another place place and time
But I am here and this is now, as much as we pretend
We need to pick the parts of ourselves we want to defend
Try as I may I cannot be what you need me to be
It's out in the open and where do we go now?
What I know's I don't want to lose you
But I'm now sure how to keep you
Can we navigate this passing storm?
I don't like to think of what we could be
Part of what you want is in me
But what we've had is why I'm holding on
Even if it's not the way you planned it
I hope we'll see this home
Try as I may I cannot be what you need me to be
It's out in the open and where do we go now?
We were perfect when we started
And we will be when we land
I think I know and I can show you how
