I. How do I be a man? How do I be a man about this? I haven't been that good I have never been that good with time How do I tell you that this is good? Can I convince you that this is for the best? I can't take the stairs right now In fact right now I can't take much at all I sit down This weight falls round my feet I shouldn't have waited til my hand was forced I should've not put off this divorce Nothing I can do about that now It's not your fault But I've had you outlined in chalk for some time I met you on the lawn I met you on the lawn to say "Goodbye" II. There is much guilt in this release There is much guilt in this release I looked at the numbers and you were the better friend And I swear I'll never break another heart again I can't shake these visions at all I can't shake these visions at all I pulled back the trigger and left a pulpy mass of red Oh Lord, next time won't you please take mine instead I know we will be better off I know we will be better off But right now that doesn't comfort, right now I'm not at ease Oh Lord, next time won't you please take mine please And I swear I'll never break another heart again

Where is the mercy in this world that I have known Something smells rotten and it ominously grows These nights are longer I can hardly stay asleep Knowing there's something that is lurking, smirking and is living Around the bend Around the bend Around the bend from me Light years from Earth I was stationed peacefully Aloof and wary I surveyed everything Cosmic forces aligned to get it done Knocked me from orbit and sent me straightly, flailing, sailing Around the bend Around the bend Around the bend to you Oh oh oh there can be no oh oh Way to prevent this fate The hour is far too late and Woah oh oh oh I'm not quite right I'll concede this fight Cause I have gone around the bend Around the bend Around the bend for you I have gone around the bend Around the bend Around the bend for you

Oh my Alice What is the matter my dear What has got you down How can I make it right So we're not up all night How can we turn this around My dear Alice What are you saying to me What are the words that you need You're not talking straight Try to communicate We could both use some sleep Oh I wanna be the one to guide you Show you what's what and just what I'd do But if I'm ever not right beside you You'll always be my baby Listen Alice There's so much you should know I don't know where to start Maryland was the 7th state This song is in 6/8 There's 4 chambers in your heart Well now Alice I should probably slow down Can't learn it all in a day But soon you're walking tall Will we get to it all Before you're walking away Oh I wanna be the one to guide you Show you what's what and just what I'd do But if I'm ever not right beside you You'll always be my baby

Meet me by the tilt-a-whirl at the county fair With snowballs in your hands, I will find you there And the ride will never end Round and round and round again Now I'm dizzy and out of place All I want is just to see your face Who will be the judge of us? Where is right and wrong? Watching "Psycho" on our own with our parents gone Matching jackets on our backs Subtle hints of what we lack When this slideshow is through how will I best remember you? I cannot make that choice All I want is just to hear your voice I cannot fill that space All I want is just to see your face

You 03:50
This time next week you'll be in my arms It's been too long since you were The time will fly. By the end you will know I'm as delightful as ever This time last year we met at a party Thrown by a mutual friend We drank too much, kissed on the porch And I asked to see you again This time in two weeks you'll be back home And you'll go over it in your head What do I bring to the table and how would Your life be without me instead This time next month we'll talk on the phone And you'll break it the best that you can I'll take it as well as a tolling death bell And try to keep the conversation from ending... We'll run into each other this time next year I would guess You'll talk about your life I'm jealous of all the time I've missed In the car I'll play you songs I've written You used to be impressed I'll tell you how bad I have missed you And you'll almost feel it You'll almost feel it yeah You
