Track Name: Last
There will always be the same sun over everyone
We inhale the same air
We're pulled down by the same gravity
And while you know it well
As far as your heart can tell
It won't ever look or feel the same
Pull the trigger
Today's the day

We know it's never gonna' last

There will always be a way out
We heard a shot ring out
How unfortunate, we're brought together by tragedy
You never knew it well
But as far as we can tell
We won't ever be the same
Turn in your number
Forfeit the game

We know it's never gonna' last
Track Name: Little One
Who made you king of truths, little one, little one?
What is it you feel you have to live up to, little one?
Everyone is watching, waiting
While you sit hooking and baiting
Come at me with another one

What made you think your shit don't stink, little one, little one?
What made you think words make me sink?
Well they don't, little one
How I find you so disdaining
How'd they find you entertaining?
Come at me with another one

How did it get to this point?
It baffles me, little one
What if they clue into your ruse?
Then you're done, little one
Oh, you better be able to back it up
If they ask for proof
Come at me with another one
Track Name: The Pins
These walls seem so strange
They've been rearranged
Someone pulled the carpet out from under me
And you never understood what it's all about
So I went and bought my ticket out
This is my exit scene

And you're watching
You're watching me set up the pins
Plotting to knock them down as you lick your lips
You love to make a mess
And leave for me to fix
Now I'll do this without you
I'll do this without you

Needed just a bit of space
And now I'm a stranger in this place
Never saw this coming quite so soon
You speak of me in shades of blue
You see only what you want to
This is my exit cue

And you're watching
You're watching me set up the pins
Plotting to knock them down as you lick your lips
You love to make a mess
And leave for me to fix
Now I'll do this without you
I'll do this without you
Track Name: Can't Go On
I can't go on
You see, you're just no good for me
I've got a bone to pick with you

I can't go on
You see, you cause me such pain and misery
You've got me down
You've got me blue

I can do this no more
I give it all, and don't know what for
There's only so much I can do

Can't do this, it's a fact
You took my heart, now I want it back
My greatest fear has now come true
Track Name: Still Here
Don't shed a tear for me
I'm still right here
I know you've felt me walking these halls
I'm still right here

I know you hear me in the rain
I'm still right here
So you remind yourself I'm no longer in pain
I'm still right here

I made sure my father would take care of my cat
I made sure my sister had the info for my accounts
I made sure my husband would find me first
If he'd ever get home from work

All I ask that you take from this
Is this small demand
Who knows how long anything will last?
Love it while you can

I made sure my father would take care of my cat
I made sure my sister had the passwords for my accounts
I made sure that bastard would find me first
And that's how I got the last word

Don't shed a tear for me
I'm still right here
Don't shed a tear for me
Don't shed a tear
Track Name: Mamas Don't Let Your Babies Grow Up To Be Cowboys
Cowboys ain't easy to love, and they're harder to hold
They'd rather give you a song than diamonds or gold
Lone Star belt buckles and old faded Levi's
And each night begins a new day
If you don't understand him and he don't die young
He'll probably just ride away

Mamas, don't let your babies grow up to be cowboys
Don't let 'em pick guitars and drive them old trucks
Let them be doctors and lawyers and such
Mamas, don't let your babies grow up to be cowboys
'Cause they're never at home and they're always alone
Even with someone they love

Cowboys like smoky poolrooms and clear mountain mornings
Little warm puppies and children and girls of the night
Them that don't know him won't like him
And them that do sometimes won't know how to take him
He ain't wrong, he's just different
But his mind won't let him do things to make you think he's right

Mamas, don't let your babies grow up to be cowboys
Don't let 'em pick guitars and drive them old trucks
Let them be doctors and lawyers and such
Mamas, don't let your babies grow up to be cowboys
'Cause they're never at home and they're always alone
Even with someone they love
Track Name: The Game
I sit at home spinning my wheels
Trying to decipher how he feels
By his voice coming across long distance line
I love hearing his voice come across that line
I never ever understood why people don't talk enough first

I'm sure I'm not the only one to feel his touch
I try not to think about that too much
My friends say I should go out with other guys
I don't want to go out with other guys
I never ever understood why people spread themselves thin

The last time he and his band came through
Tried desperately to search him for clues
Am I a lover or just a friend?
Do I mean anything to him?
I never ever understood when two people should make that call

At times, every day I get a text or call
Still, other times I get nothing at all
My friends say I should go out with other guys
Maybe I should go out with other guys
I never ever understood why people play games

Tell me that you want me
Or tell me that it's over
Tell me something completely
Please don't leave me in the middle any longer
Tell me that you need me
Or tell me you've found another
Tell me something completely
Please don't leave me in the middle any longer
Track Name: My Beloved
The candlelight whispers to
Dancing shadows that all seem to
Be calling of visions of a future with you
Brighter, dimmer, flicker, shimmer
Softly hearts align
Softly hands entwine

Come to me, my beloved
Never to unravel
Come to me, my beloved
It's you that I choose
Immortally, immortally

The evening wind beckons to
The tree that it's blowing through
To rock and sway in rhythm to a lullaby song
Sing a chorus, seems it's for us
Bright night stars align
Softly hands entwine

Come to me, my beloved
Never to unravel
Come to me, my beloved
It's you that I choose
Immortally, immortally
Track Name: There's A Change
There's a change in the air
In this wide open air
And you're standing up, you're standing tall
Just when they thought that you would take a fall

You started singing,
"Ba ba ba-da da, ba ba-da da, oh woah
Ba ba ba-da da, ba ba-da da"

There's a change from within
You're settling into your own skin
And you understand what you need to do
To put all those lonely days behind you

Start singing,
"Ba ba ba-da da, ba ba-da da, oh woah
Ba ba ba-da da, ba ba-da da"

You don't need anyone to make you happy
No you don't need anybody but yourself

So start singing,
"Ba ba ba-da da, ba ba-da da, oh woah
Ba ba ba-da da, ba ba-da da"
Track Name: Bye For Now
I'll be waiting in the sunshine
I'll be waiting in the grass
I'll be ready for you to get me
You won't even have to ask
And we'll cross that bridge when we come to it
But for now I have to go
Do what you need to do as I head down the road

Oh me dear, it's been such a long time
And I love you just the same
As the day you rescued me
And you gave my soul a name
All of those nights laying side by side
Now have come to a close
Do what you need to do as I head down the road

Oh you know the greatest thing about our old weary bodies?
They're not what defines us
It's just a technicality
Soon I will be a memory
But I know the day will come
When I'll see you again
When you'll be coming home

I'll see you soon
(I'll be seeing you again)
But it's bye for now
