Either Way

 

Maybe the sun will shine today

And the clouds'll blow away

Maybe I won't feel so afraid

 

I will try to understand

Either way

 

Maybe you still love me maybe you don't

Either you will or you won't

Maybe you just need some time alone

 

I will try to understand

Everything has it's plan

Either way

I'm gonna stay right here for you

 

Maybe the sun will shine today

The clouds'll roll away

Maybe I won't be so afraid

 

I will understand

How everything has it's plan

Either way

 

You Are My Face

 

I remember my mother's sister's husband's brother

Working in the gold mine, full time, filling in for sunshine

Filing in to tight lines, ordinary beehives

The door screams i hate you, hate you

Hanging 'round my blue jeans

 

Why is there no breeze?

No currency of leaves

No current through the water while

No feelings i can see

 

I trust no emotion

I believe in locomotion

I've turned to rust, as we've discussed

Though I must have let you down too many times

In the dirt and the dust

 

I have no idea how this happens

All of my maps have been overthrown

Happenstance has changed my glance

So many times, my heart has been outgrown

 

Now everybody's feeling all alone

Can't tell you who I am

When everybody's feeling all alone

Can't tell you who I am

 

I am looking forward

Toward the shadows chasing bones

My face is stitched and sewing

Our houses hemmed into homes

 

Trying to be thankful

Our stories fit into phones

And our voices lift so easily, a gift given accidentally

When we're not sure we're alone

 

Impossible Germany

 

Impossible Germany, unlikely Japan

Wherever you go, wherever you land

I'll say what this means to me

I'll do what I can

Impossible Germany, Unlikely Japan

 

The fundamental problem

That I need to face

This is important

But I know

You're not listening, oh I know

You're not listening

 

If this was still new to me

I wouldn't understand

Impossible Germany, Unlikely Japan

 

This is what love is for

To be out of place

Gorgeous and alone, face to face

With no larger problems

They need to be erased

Nothing more important

Than to know

Now I know you'll be listening

 

Sky Blue Sky

 

Oh the band marched on in formation

The brass was phasing tunes I couldnt place

Windows open and raining in

Maroon, yellow, blue, gold and gray

 

The drunks were ricocheting

Off the old buildings downtown empty so long ago

Windows broken and dreaming

So happy to leave what was my home

 

With a sky blue sky this rotten time

Wouldnt seem so bad to me now

Oh if I didnt die should I be satisfied

I survived, its good enough for now

 

With a sky blue sky this rotten time

Wouldnt seem so bad to me now

Oh if I didnt die should I be satisfied

I survived, its good enough somehow

 

Side With The Seeds

 

The tires tar black

The blacktop cracks

Leaves fall through

Dark green enough to be blue

 

When the mysteries we believe in

Aren't dreamed enough to the true

Some side with the leaves

Some side with the seeds

 

The tree top's stop

The rain applauds

The park grows dark

the swings are slowly dying

 

But you and I will be undefeated

By agreeing to disagree

No one wins but the theives

So I side with anything

 

The street lights' glow

Comes and goes

And the sun comes back

As we all can plainly see

 

But embracing the situation

Is our only chance to be free

I'll side with you

If you side with me

 

Shake it Off

 

Sunlight angles on

Wooden floor at dawn

Ceiling fan is on

Chopping up my dreams

 

What is left of them

I take to sleep again

Where I dare pretend

I'm more than I seem

 

Tears get triggered

Yours remind me

Of the ice

Melting in my glass

 

Finally full again

So I'll listen for

Your lips to break apart

Into words

 

The devil nearly starts

Swore my heart

Somewhere there's a war

Sometimes it's hard

 

The devil nearly starts

Swore my heart

Somewhere there's a war

Sometimes it's hard

 

When I'm waking up

I'm gonna shake it off

Gonna shake it off

I'm gonna shake it off

 

Shake it off

Shake it off

Shake it off

Shake it off

 

Hotels hold me

Thoughts horizon

So many hearts

Beating in one place

Like a giant beast

With many souls

No, just a body

Full of holes

 

When I'm waking up

I'm gonna shake it off

I'm gonna shake it off

I'm gonna shake it off

 

When I'm waking up

I'm gonna shake it off

I'm gonna shake it off

I'm gonna shake it off

 

Shake it off

Shake it off

Shake it off

Shake it off

 

Please Be Patient With Me

 

I should warn you

When I'm not well

I can't tell

Oh there's nothing I can

To make this easier for you

 

You're gonna need to be

Patient with me

 

I'm this apple

I'm this happening stone

When I'm alone

Oh but my blessings get so blurred

Like the sound of your words

 

I'm gonna need you to be

Patient with me

 

How can I warn you when my tongue turns to dust

Like we've discussed

It doesn't mean that I don't care

It means I'm partially there

 

You're gonna need to be

Patient With me

 

Hate it Here

 

I try to stay busy

I do the dishes I mow the lawn

I try to keep myself occupied

Even though I know you're not coming home

 

I try to keep the house nice and neat

I make my bed, I change the sheets

I even learned how to use the washing machine

Keeping things clean doesn't change anything

 

What am I gonna do when I run out of shirts to fold?

What am I gonna do when I run out of lawn to mow?

What am I gonna do if you never come home?

Tell me, oh what am I gonna do?

 

Oh, I hate it

I hate it here

When you're gone

 

I caught myself thinking

Caught my self thinking once again

Had to try to keep my mind out of this

Try not to pretend

 

I'll check the phone

I'll check the mail

I'll check the phone again, I'll call your mom

She says your not there and I should take

 

I hate it here

When you're gone

I hate it

I hate it here

When you're gone

 

I try to stay busy

I take out the trash, I sweep the floor

I try to keep myself occupied

'Cause I know you don't live here anymore

 

Leave Me (Like You Found Me)

 

Thats when I knew you

You might be lonely too

Thats what I wished for

Somebody just like you

To tell me what to do

Honestly, you leave me like you found me

 

Can you believe it?

I'm somebody just like you

Content with being blue

Honestly, you leave like you found me

 

I sit on the couch alone

Where you sit when I'm not home

And I felt so close to you

 

And down the city streets

People are climbing the trees

They're finally up off their knees

Honestly, you leave me like you found me

Can you leave my like you found me?

 

Walken

 

I'm walkin' all by myself

Well I was talking to myself about you

What am I gonna do?

 

I was singin' this song about you

I was thinking about singing this song for you

 

The more I think about it the more I know it's true

The more I think about it the more I'm sure it's you

Honey, I think you're just right

You're just right

 

I was walkin', like I said, by myself

I was talkin' to myself about you

Like I always do

 

The more I think about it the more I know it's true

The more I think about it the more I'm sure it's you

Honey I think you're just right

You're just right

 

The more I think about it the more I know it's true

The more I think about it the more I'm sure it's you

Honey, I think you're just right

You're just right

 

What Light

 

If you feel like singin' a song

And you want other people to sing along

Just sing what you feel

Don't let anyone tell you it's wrong

 

And if you're trying to paint a picture

But you're not sure what colors belong

Just paint what you feel

Don't let anyone tell you it's wrong

 

If you're strung out like a kite

Or stuck awake in the night

It's alright to be frightened

 

When there's a light

What light?

And there's a light

What light?

There's a light

White light

Inside of you

 

If you think you might need somebody

To pick you up when you drag

Don't lose sight of yourself

Don't let anyone change your bag

 

And if the whole world is singing your songs

And your painting have all been hung

Just remember what was your

Is everyone's from now on

 

And that's not wrong or right

But you can struggle with it all you like

You don't have to get uptight

 

When there's a light

What light?

There's a light

What light?

There's a light

White light

There's a light

White light

There's a light

One light

There's a light

White light

There's a light

One light

There's a light

White light

There's a light

One Light

There's a light

White light

There's a light

One light inside of you

 

There's a light

White light

There's a light

White light

There's a light

White light

There's a light

One light

 

On And On And On

 

On and on and on

We'll stay together yeah

Oh and on and on

We'll be together yeah

 

You and I will try

To stay together yeah

One day we'll disapear

Together in a dream

However short or long

Our lives are gonna be

 

I will live in you

And you will live in me

Until we dissapear

Together in a dream

 

Please don't cry

We are designed to die

You can't deny

Even the gentlest tide

 

On and on and on

We'll be together yeah

On and on and on

On and on and on

We're going to try

 

Please don't cry

This world of words and meanings

Makes you feel outside

Something that you feel already

Deep inside, you've denied

Go ahead and cry

 

On and on and on

We'll stay together yeah

On and on and on

On and on and on

 

You and I we'll stay together yeah

You and I will try to make it better yeah

Am I crazy for hearing "Tires tar black" instead of "Tired stop light" on Side With the Seeds?

 

Edit: After listening to the first line about seven times I'm positive it's "Tires tar black"

I hear "Tires tar black" too.

But you and I will be undefeated

By agreeing to disagree

No one wins but the theives

So I why side with anything?

 

That's how I hear it... and it makes more sense to me.

 

Also:

 

I will try to understand

Everything has it's plan

Either way

I'm gonna stay right here for you

 

 

I think they took out the "here" for the studio version.
