Circular Season
03:00
|

and so what is this supposed to prove?
I want to spend all my time alone with you
in a circular season with you
like I don't need a reason
and so what am I supposed to say?
in a limited sense I think we'll both be okay.
yeah I think we're going to work it out
there's things that I don't want to think about
and so what is that supposed to mean?
I want to pull all my days apart at the seams
to find whatever I'm after with you
like I can say that it matters
and so who is that supposed to please?
in a limited sense I think I've got what I need
yeah I think we're going to work it out
there's things that I don't want to think about

No Plan
03:05

no one's going to ask to leave the lights on
I think we've all seen enough
no one has ideas to change their mind on
so way whatever you want
I'm so bored of being wrong all the time
I only want to hang out with you
I'll ignore it until everything's fine
I just want to hang out with you
don't kid yourself: we both know how it's going to end
and it feels kinda bad but it feels even worse to pretend
and I will be here for you, I'll do everything that I can
and I will be here for you, I will be here with no plan
no one's going to move you any closer
to getting past the thing that you want
no one's going to tell you when it's over
you can leave whenever you want
I'm so bored of singing songs all the time
I only want to hang out with you
I'll ignore it until everything's fine
I just want to hang out with you
don't kid yourself: we both know how it's going to end
and it feels kinda bad but it feels even worse to pretend
and I will be here for you, I'll do everything that I can
and I will be here for you, I will be here with no plan

Hold
03:37

and you know how I am sometimes
when I'm looking for something to keep me occupied
how long until I'm out of time?
How long until I've had enough and I call it a night
it's on hold for now but we're going to make it out alright
so just hold it down because we're going to make it up sometime
yeah you know how I've been these days
when I'm looking for reasons to stop me from turning the page
how long until you figure me out
how long until you see who i am etc etc etc
it's on hold for now but we're going to make it out alright
so just hold it down because we're going to make it up sometime

take the dog for a walk
take the trash to the curb and just stand in the yard
call you up just to talk
tell you that I didn't know it was going to be so hard
cause it goes on until I hang up the phone
I can turn it on until I feel left alone
cause I've got feelings that I've been running from for most of my life
I've got feelings for my wife
I've got feelings that I've been running from for most of my life
I've got feelings for my wife
chop the wood for a fire
move the clothes to the dryer, miss the sound of your laugh
read a page once a day
take the same glass and plate and run them under the tap
and I write you a song just like I said that I would
it's been coming along, I wouldn't say that it's good
But I've got feelings that I've been running from for most of my life
I've got feelings for my wife
I've got feelings that I've been running from for most of my life
I've got feelings for my wife

Waste
03:43
|

something in the airwaves: something else to waste my time
do we see it in the same way? do you think I'll ever cross that line?
I'm calling out whatever I see, I'm hang around, whatever you need
before I turn out the light: you know you can tell me anything right?
each day's exactly the same, but you don't have to learn anything
Something in the airwaves, something going to come out wrong
I can waste another long day, I can waste another worn out song
I talk around whatever I read. "On common ground," whatever that means
before I turn out the light: you know you can tell me anything right?
one day I'm bound to forget, so can you tell me if we're over it yet

Car

I'm going to get this wrong. I don't know how yet but I can feel it
I'll write a thousand songs about how I feel but I won't believe it
until I'm way far gone. I don't want to learn about myself
I only want to see my actions refracted through somebody else
I wish I had a car to drive around
I want to drive for hours and end up back in my home town
I wish I had a car to drive around
I want to drive for hours and end up back in my home town
I'm going to make this worse. I'll spend a thousand weekends on it
hang on for one more verse. hang on I'll put more chorus on it
cause I am way far gone and I don't want to learn about myself
I only want a pale abstraction that turns me into something else
I wish I had a car to drive around
I want to drive for hours and end up back in my home town
I wish I had a car to drive around
I want to drive for hours and end up back in my home town
