Tell the Difference

even if i could tell the difference
i don't think i'd change a thing
i swear i'm not kidding

Zero
01:41
|
|||
|
i thought that i would know it by now
figure it out
not still be singing about it
but there's no snap of flames in fireplace
warming me on my birthday
so i bought a zero
from the dollar store. put it on my cake
light it up and try not to feel like that zero
feel the warmth of that zero
keep getting lost in those zeros
try to imagine a one in front of it
and try to feel like that many dollars

Who You Are
02:19
|
|||
|
just for the heck of it
i wrap my arms around you
and hold you tight
touch your eyelids
with my eyelids
forgot that this isn't happening
cause when i wake up
i'll deal with it
remember who i am
and who you are
and just for the heck of it
i close my eyes
on a straight
patch of the highway
long for the wind
to blow through me
while i shout,
"this is living!"
and even though
we'll never be
i still love who we were
and who you are

Secret
01:54
|
|||
|
it felt like a secret club meeting
you whispered the whole time
it got dark while we were grinning
i want to know the secret
2016 was hard you said
it can't get much worse
walked you to the train and we hugged
i want to know the secret
i still don't know the secret
i don't think i will ever know the secret
|
||||
5. |
||||
|
even though my dog barked at a baby
i won't tell her "no" cause that's just the way she
deals with being scared and sometimes i get scared too
and it's bad enough without the shame
when i mess things up and you don't come over
i go to the kitchen and eat leftovers
just because i'm sad doesn't mean it is fair to
depend on you when you're sad too

No Secret
02:03
|
|||
|
make that face, just don't make that face with me
you know can rent those ice skates
just don't rent them with me
see that film, just don't see that film with me
cause i'll just mull it over endlessly
i know now no secret hides from me
you know i once lost myself in total mystery
but how could i have lost so easily?

Alone
02:25
|
|||
|
is this the last time?
no, how could it be?
i'll probably cya
around the old neighborhood
but we won't say
hello
is this the first time?
no, how could it be?
that you considered
that you might truly be
alone
permanently alone

Round 2
03:06
|
|||
|
where is that point of no return?
the bridge i built just burned, burned, burned
i feel the cold on the window pain
bike by your house and know that i'm to blame
no is what i said but i hope you know i meant
something more like a yes when you asked me if i thought
there would be another time like in 5 or 10 years
when we could go for round 2 like round 1 never happened
you cut your hair and made the thunder roar
the rain came down but then you asked for more
those pretty lines won't help you now
but i still sing them anyhow
no is what i said and i guess that's what i meant
cause my knees were wobbling and now i know
there won't be another time like in 5 or 10 years
when we could go for round 2 like round 1 never happened

(Secret)
03:30
|
|||
|
Climb until you reach the top
but you may never want to stop
what you did was hard to do
and i hope i might one day learn from you
all about it
i know that it's not darkening
see the light dance on the lake
sing no song of endless loss
if that's what it takes
|

Real Love Song
01:53
|
|||
|
if i knew the secret word
you would know it too
cause i would only tell you
and then we could clap our hands,
say, "why was that so hard to do?"
be who we were meant to
and if i could write a real love song
you would sing it with me too
cause i'd sing it to only you
