i wanna be the one
i wanna be the one
i wanna be the one
i wanna be the one
i wanna be the one
i wanna be the one
told a white lie
a little white lie
told a white lie
never break your heart
never break your heart
don’t wanna break your heart
i wanna be the one
i wanna be the one
i wanna be the one
all this time, crimes and lies
got me mixing up my loose ends
and i don’t know how much
longer i can stand to live with them
this heavy aftermath
heavy aftermath
don’t want the aftermath
i want you to be my love
my only love
i want you to be my love
told a white lie
a little white lie
told a white lie
i wanna be the one
i wanna be the one
i wanna be the one
all this time, crimes and lies
got me mixing up my loose ends
and i don’t know how much
longer i can stand to live with them
rumors that you heard
rumors that you heard
rumors were all true
told a white lie
a little white lie
told a white lie
don’t want to bear this cross
don’t want this heavy cross
don’t want this cross
i wanna be the one
i wanna be the one
i wanna be the one
all this time, crimes and lies
got me mixing up my loose ends
and i don’t know how much
longer i can stand to live with them
i wanna be the one
i wanna be the one
i wanna be the one

Wish My Wishes True
03:29
|

|
i wish i had a golden voice
that felt right to your ear
you'd know my songs by heart
sing the high harmonies
i wish that i could wish my wishes true
i wish that all the fighting men
would fight themselves to death
leave the earth to the rest of us
that know how to get along
i wish that i could wish my wishes true
i wish i knew all the answers
to all the questions people ask
they'd take comfort in knowing
that some one out there knew
i wish that i could wish my wishes true
i wish i could catch a falling star
keep it at my place
let my girl wish upon it
to see the smile on her face
i wish that i could wish my wishes true

The Dreamer

oh the dreamer
what of she
oh the day
these dreams come to be
will another
find it’s place
in the hollow
in this space
oh this evil
where is the root
love’s the way
extinguish you
will another
find it’s place
evil fury
way off base
oh what
the fuck
are we doing
to ourselves
oh be happy
do not be sad
celebrate
shared nothings had
can anything
stop us now
i need you
please god allow
oh our fate
what of us
surrounded by
all we’ve done
not alone
but the aftertaste
left behind
in our wake
what the fuck
are we doing
to ourselves

Chaos Like This
03:52
|
|||
|
the way you speak
have you always, that way
with a cockeyed smile
and vibrant eyes
mystery of your ways
draws me to your flame
whether poison or cure
i must know your name
chaos like this
last a short time
for the be-all end-all
comes like violent crime
i’ve come to believe
amongst the hullabaloo
coincidence found us
in love me and you
captured by your heart
cuffed to your ways
incandescent and bold
runaway sane
our passion for life
was more than we made
working 40 hours
earning minimum wage
chaos like this
last a short time
for the be-all end-all
comes like violent crime
i’ve come to believe
amongst the hullabaloo
totality found us
in love me and you
lived all of our dreams
i’m at home where you are
i’ll take you with me
when i’m far

Trouble
03:44
|
|||
|
somebody take me home from this party
it's been so much fun but too much drinkin
caught up and ruined the most of the rest of me
and I'm feelin an overwhelming sinking
somebody help me i’ve neglected myself
been reckless in my old haunt with the devil
this binging, oh my weakness, i need saving
from these depths of hell and dishevel
there’s nothing like the trouble i know i’ll be in
there’s nothing like the trouble i know i’ll be in
there’s nothing like the trouble i know i’ll be in
there’s nothing like the trouble i know i’m in
somebody help put me back together
i’m sorry i’ve let you down again my dear
you already know that i’ll break it when i’m sayin
i promise to make it all better this year
there’s nothing like the trouble i know i’ll be in
there’s nothing like the trouble i know i’ll be in
there’s nothing like the trouble i know i’ll be in
there’s nothing like the trouble i know i’m in

True Love
03:03
|
|||
|
oh what a danger standing by quiet
like reality could wait for what you would say
if you weren’t so timid if you were brave
fix it with a whisper or a shot in the arm
don’t pause to be jealous of dreams
step out take a chance to do your thing
it’s all an illusion
it’s nothing at all
you and i give it meaning
true love will find you
when you find a love that’s true
that will be everything
fighting doubts by yourself all alone
will you play your hand before your bones rust
and the blood in your heart turns to dust
the time is now to be guilty of doing
to be queen of the kingdom to come
before your last breath leaves your lungs
it’s all an illusion
it’s nothing at all
you and i give it meaning
true love will find you
when you find a love that’s true
that will be everything

Love Drug

|
your love is a drug i can’t afford to be without
your love is a drug i can’t afford to be without
your love is a drug i can’t afford to be without
and i need that high like i need your love
you keep the diamonds, take all of those pearls
your sweet embrace is the only thing i need in the world
i’ll be killing myself if it’s life without you
it’s not a suicide song it’s a love song
your love is a drug i can’t afford to be without
your love is a drug i can’t afford to be without
your love is a drug i can’t afford to be without
and i need that high like i need your love
it’s more than an addiction, call it dependency
your mine for the whole of my life, not eternity
i’ll be killing myself if it’s life without you
it’s not a suicide song it’s a love song
your love is a drug i can’t afford to be without
your love is a drug i can’t afford to be without
your love is a drug i can’t afford to be without
and i need that high like i need your love
your love is a drug i can’t afford to be without
your love is a drug i can’t afford to be without
your love is a drug i can’t afford to be without
and i need that high like i need your love

I Love You Just the Same
03:24
|
|||
|
this is a gift
falling hard in love
to see what you’re made of
this is a gas
watching you dance
reminds me how to laugh
no we can't get there from here
no we can't get there from here
no we can't get there from here
but I love you just the same
that is a fact
no opinions matter
when it's a matter of facing the facts
living a life
of honor and grace
the beautiful grit of your ways
no we can't get there from here
no we can't get there from here
no we can't get there from here
but I love you just the same
no we can't get there from here
no we can't get there from here
no we can't get there from here
but I love you just the same

Wasted Time
03:15
|
|||
|
as time goes by
i wonder
why all the easy days
aren’t easy no more
i used to have time
time, time
to make all the memories
i have left today
wasted times
not wasted
if i enjoyed
wasting my time
all that i could
to magnify
the little bit of good
i found in myself
i hear my heart sing
perfect melody
but the words are a tongue
foreign to my mind

I Wish You Well
04:06
|
|||
|
i remember you fondly now
because of all of the good times we had then
you were more than a friend
shared passion and laughter was a shot in the arm
when we said goodbye i didn’t cry
until you were out of sight
it wasn’t like you tried to break my heart
it just ran dry through the hole
until next time i wish you well
until i see you i wish you well
we won’t be strangers then if we
keep up with all of the good times
til then i’ll have to guess how you’re
passing the time & all that's on your mind

Juxtaposing poetic balladry with roaring feedback and warped piano lines, the Vermonter's music is as stunning as it is unsettling.

Changes Happen To Everyone, Everywhere
