Jam the Signal (c) 2016 I see wire around Not connecting to a ground People talk in circles spinning out Wake up wonder what it's all about If I jam the signal Maybe you'll slow down Watching critics pass me, hurry by Where, do you see the finish line Can't we walk together side by side No one leaves the other one behind If I jam the signal maybe you'll slow down If I jam the signal maybe you'll... take time to trust take time to try take time to hear take time to care take time to kneel take time to feel take time to love take time Listen to the moon whisper at night Bask in secrets of its light Ponder who you are and what is right Stutter if it helps you empathize If I jam the signal Maybe you'll slow down If I jam the signal maybe If I jam the signal baby If I jam the signal maybe you'll slow

Broke My Heart 02:43

Broke My Heart (c) 2016 I'm not gonna run I'm not gonna cry Or try to make you understand I don't need to tell you why Three long days gone by Still I stare and sigh You’ve got a way with words Using them so they hurt You broke my heart, but you didn't break me If you were the story And I was the narrator I would have to cut you short How does it feel when no one's listening baby? You broke my heart, but you didn't break me You're never ever gonna change, so happy with yourself Satisfied you've done me wrong Think you have me running scared Six long days gone by Still I spit and sigh You've got a way with love But I don't need what you got You broke my heart, but you didn't break me

Ambushed 04:11

Ambushed (c) 2016 I was ambushed in my own house No one would ever find you out Frame by frame, you’re unpredictable It’s a dirty damn shame, you’re so likable Now I rack my mind 'Cause I met your kind And I keep falling for it How lucky you are to be born without a heart ‘Cause mine hurts all the time How lucky you are to be born without a heart ‘Cause mine hurts all the time Compassion is not what you’d say your calling is Line ‘em up and knock ‘em down in front of witnesses I am rearranged 'Cause I thought you changed But I keep falling for it How lucky you are to be born without a heart ‘Cause mine hurts all the time How lucky you are to be born without a heart ‘Cause mine hurts all the time Oh it hurts all the time You wear your smile just like a fashion statement You look at me like I’m your entertainment I'm done fishing down your dry well 'cause I'm the sensitive type who fell into your hell The less I say, the more I'm heard I can figure you out, but I won't be cured Now I see the signs And I hear their cries I'm not falling for it How lucky you are to be born without a heart ‘Cause mine hurts all the time How lucky you are to be born without a heart ‘Cause mine hurts all the time Oh, it hurts all time…Oh…How lucky you are…

Somebody Brought You Home 04:18
lyrics

Somebody Brought You Home (c) 2016 I remember how you used to look far into space Fear took over love and you fell far out of place Words couldn't express the emptiness You couldn't take anymore Followed you until you held your own and you were safe Loved you when you didn't know you could be You were the sun and the moon to those you knew But you couldn't see through walls You had no place to go All of the exits vanished until Rain sanded the stone Hurricane forces picked you up and Somebody brought you home Don't worry, You're not really, alone Welcome my darling to your home I have lived a life and seen the world through grown-up eyes You could never reach the pinnacle no matter how you tried When the alley way leads to a wall You learn to stay still and quiet No one has to explain I can tell where you have been You keep recalling the pain Of a soldiering child's remembrance 'til Somebody brought you home You were, never alone Welcome my darling to your New world, A new way of breathing in and out So let go and cast off Everything that's keeping you down We are who we become From experience and resolute scars Flowering under the sun 'Cause there's not a whole lot that grows in the dark Let somebody bring you home Let unconditional love flow through your bones Rest your head darling, this is your home

The Big Mistake 03:48

The Big Mistake (c) 2016 I broke again today The ache of yesterday I stood there like a child No one could save me now The big mistake, the big mistake I give, you take, I feel, you fake I can't erase the mess you made It makes me stronger every day I trusted who you were Your lifeless eyes were blurred Now you got what you want But still that's not enough The big mistake, the big mistake I give, you take, I feel, you fake I can't erase the mess you made It makes me stronger every day I didn't heed the warning My intuition called it out I listened to myself but I hoped it wasn't true There's nothing left to see Cause you took all of me The big mistake, the big mistake I give, you take, I feel, you fake I can't erase the mess you made It makes me stronger every day
