It Was My Fault

All we are, we're desperate things
We're wretched things, Or is it just me
Counting spins in the ceiling fan
Laying in my bed, Asking myself
How could I even ask what it is that went wrong
It's written all on the walls in red
And in all my worthless songs
And even when I sing about love
I know the words they're all false
Because darling though you didn't ask me
Yes it was all my fault
I don't mean to redeem myself
No all this is, Is trying to understand
Finding time to drown myself
In double wells, Oh keep em coming
How could I even ask what it is that went wrong
It's written all on the walls in red
And in all my worthless songs
And even when I sing about love
I know the words they're all false
Because darling though you didn't ask me
Yes it was all my fault
It was my fault
It was my fault
It was my fault
Yes it was my fault
Oh it was my fault
Yea it was my fault

Memory, where have you gone?
Away from me as time lingers on
My family scattered across
Away from me, or on to the lord
Can you lead me there?
Can you lead...
My grandson came to see me yesterday
But my eyes are weak I barely recognized his face
My bones are broke I'm shattered and beat
Can't please finally take me
Can you lead me on?
Can you lead me home?
Can you lead, oh me?
Can you lead...
When the water's all that's left, the wine is gone
My head will fall onto pieces
I'll have nothing left, I'll have nothing left
But my song lingers on the length is long
Could you please come here and save me?
Oh from myself.
Save me from myself.
Can you lead me on?
Can you lead me home?
Can you lead, oh can you lead me?
Can you lead...

Blood & Water

The sky is getting dark, you start to hear a hum
Praying for change, but it won't come
We wait for it to fall, fall upon the land
Watching on the news, you'll never understand
You bear the names of men,women alike
But there's no humanity around your eye
Water's on the rise, it comes to take our homes again
Nothing we can do but wait for it to end
I remember as a child my mother told me son
Whatever happens next we will overcome
But I remember watching, I remember seeing
Our hearts were bleeding, that wind came screaming
Vermillion Bay may wash away our homes again
But it'll never take the strength my family holds within
Water's on the rise pack up all your things
We are headed north far from what will be
This is not the end no
We will stand tall up against it
All our love it holds
Stronger than any of them winds...
...could blow
You bear the names of men, women alike
But there's no humanity around your eye
Water's on the rise it comes to take our homes again
But through it all in all we will rebuild
We will rebuild.

Your freezing figure, it made me shiver in the night
But I held comfort as you laid down by my side
Facing forward I leaned in further past your grace
And like the others I pushed you further away
Oh my Bella Roo
How I ache for you
I don't know what to do
Oh my Bella Roo
Anxious questions. Waiting outside your door
My shaking fingers pressing numbers on the phone
I can't wait for you to come back home
But will you make it? These things i'll never know
Oh my Bella Roo
How I ache for you
I don't know what to do
Oh my Bella Roo
Oh my Bella Roo
All I crave is you
I don't know what to do
Oh my Bella Roo

Walls

There's no need to run away dear
There's no time for us to waste
It's all coming back into the same old fever
We let it all just burn away
I loved you in the night time
Long after all the days
But time has a way of telling the same old story
There's nothing left for it to say
Well o my love come down
It's time for you to break my walls
And o my love calm down
It's time for me to leave
It was either you or me
So i'll go, yea i'll go
Been three months since I had called you
Or made a mention of your name
But you waltzed right in and you came to my doorstep
And said "I don't know what to say"
Well o my love come down
It's time for you to break my walls
And o my love calm down
It's time for me to leave
It was either you or me
So i'll go, yea i'll go
"I can't do this anymore,
We've forgotten how to fall"
She said to me
But I keep building up these walls
She seems to have a cause
To break them free

Are you in or out?
Are you in or out?
Because you know that I won't
Ever leave you this way
I said all I wanna say
But you'll walk on anyway
Just like you do
The story's moving forward
But I lost you in it's chapters
This is not true or false
It's Carraway.
The way I saw things play out
It's my own take, take it as you may
We hold the weight of what was done
But I hope that what I have become's
Not the fate for you
I said all I wanna say
But you'll walk on anyway
Just like you do
Let's not make this awkward
But if it's true then I wont miss you
I won't miss you
If it's true I won't miss you
But if it's false
I would give up anything to be with you
I won't miss you
If it's true then I won't miss you
But if it's false
I would give up everything to be with you
Hold my hand
And i'll hold my tongue
