Someone's stitching up a broken dream
West wind's ripping right through the seams
From the top of the hill, I can see
Someone's stitching up a broken dream
We won't just wither in the night
Never satisfied, we walk the edge of this divide between us lately
Oh, what a time to be alive
We'll keep raving on, they won't break us down
We were made for these times
Times they're looking like they'll never change
Rich get richer while we take the blame
Same old story, same old game
Times they're looking like they'll never change
We won't just wither in the night
Never satisfied, we walk the edge of this divide between us lately
Oh, what a time to be alive
We'll keep raving on, they won't break us down
We were made for these times
We won't just wither in the night
Never satisfied, we walk the edge of this divide between us lately
Oh, what a time to be alive
We'll keep raving on, they won't break us down
We were made for these times
We were made for these times
We were made for these, oh--

Goodbye

You've been hanging around too long
You've gotta go now, you've gotta go
I keep hearing that same old song
It's time to go now, it's time to go
Everybody thinks they know what's right
But nobody wants to show up for the fight
And you're just another one talking like your God's only child
Lean in close and let me tell you what I know
You've gotta go now, you've gotta go
Don't mistake my kindness for anything more
It's time to go now, it's time to go
Try as you might, we're nothing alike
Don't paint yourself in the same kind of light
Nothing comes easy no, not if you do it right
Everything doesn't belong to you
Just because you want it to
You think you've got a right
But you couldn't be more wrong
You can try to justify all you do
But I'm still done with you
So goodbye
I'm moving right along
Don't waste a minute, don't walk, just run
You've gotta go now, you've gotta go
Nobody here is having any fun
It's time to go now, it's time to go
Look around here now
What do you see?
Everybody's got some better place to be
While you just carry on blind to rationality
Everything doesn't belong to you
Just because you want it to
You think you've got a right
But you couldn't be more wrong
You can try to justify all you do
But I'm still done with you
So goodbye
I'm moving right along
You've been hanging around too long
You've gotta go now, you've gotta go

If I Dreamed

If I thought you'd come to me, it wouldn't be
If I dreamed you'd stay with me, you'd leave
If I wanted you to say what you mean
You wouldn't let yourself be free, free, free, free

Another Summer Song

All I wanna do is waste the day with you
Wait for the sound of cicadas all around
The sun's hanging low on the hillside
Twilight is never far behind
Fireflies will dance to the song of summer nights
Winter's gone away, but He'll be back someday
So I'll be the one writing letters to the sun
So much depends on love and light
The way you're somehow always on my mind
Trees gently sway to the song of summer nights
Daydream in the shade of all the plans we made
Regrets lay like a map, but I'm okay with that
The darkness is delicate and wild
August always brings me back to life
Let's sing along to the song of summer nights

I know you see me
Like I'm some kind of answered prayer
But baby, believe me
I'm no prize and I really don't care
There's a bird in the garden
He's not singing your name anymore
Is it any wonder
When I've gone and I've closed the door
I've heard it said I've got a careless heart
I've been told that I can't be moved
It's not my fault if you're gonna fall apart
Never been accused of loving you
Over and over
Another chance to even up the score
Looks like the answer
Isn't quite what we bargained for
I've heard it said I've got a careless heart
I've been told that I can't be moved
It's not my fault if you're gonna fall apart
Never been accused of loving you
I can't follow you down
Down into that world that you made
'Cause if I do I know that I won't
Make it out alive someday
Go on with out me
You can make this easy on us both
Please don't pretend you love me
And I will do the same for you, for you
I will do the same for you
I will do the same for you, for you
I've heard it said I've got a careless heart
I've been told that I can't be moved
It's not my fault if you're gonna fall apart
Never been accused of loving you
I've heard it said I'm reckless and bold
Yeah, that's what I've been told
It's not my fault if you fall
Never been accused of loving you
Never been accused of loving you
Never been accused of loving you

This could've been a good thing
If I had said the right thing
Every time you needed me
It could've been wonderful
If you have grown to let go
Of all the things that aren't in your control
I can't say leaving this behind
Hasn't crossed my mind a thousand times
This could've been a good thing
I always learn the hard way
I give too much away
And nothing is enough to make you stay
I always fall right back down
From some higher ground
To find there's no one left
No one around
If I could move this mountain, I could see
You would be alright, you don't need me
I always learn the hard way
I have left so many words
On the cutting floor
And I know that they'll still be there
When I close the door
Yes, they might be my regrets
But I'm keeping them in store
This could've been a good thing
If loving me was easy
But we both know how hard that can be
This could have been lovely
Like a cooling summer breeze
Moving through the spaces in between
In my mind we're carefree in the sun
And I have dreams of all we could become
This could've been a good thing

Baby, Please

Baby, please
I see that look in your eyes
Don't make this hard for us both
Let me just say goodbye
Lover, no
I'm not tryin' to be cruel
It's just one of those things
I'll be honest with you
Baby, please
I'm just tryin' to do right
By the days and the years
Looking up at the sky
Honey, oh
I know nobody's any good
At starting over
I thought you understood
It was good while it lasted
Like August
And the setting sun
You've been moving through my orbit
And now it's time to move on

Walk Away

If you take me for a fool
I'm gonna disappoint you
I can see right through you
And everything you do
You've got your eye on the door
You don't need me anymore
Is this what you wished for?
Another goddamn war
I've been called worse by better
But it really doesn't matter
I don't care what you gotta say
You're gonna watch me smile and walk away
It doesn't matter to me
Who you think I should be
Backing down sounds easy
But it doesn't come free
And if you want me to stay
This tired line's gotta change
Or I'm gonna take the next train
Back to some better place
I've been called worse by better
But it really doesn't matter
I don't care what you gotta say
You're gonna watch me smile and walk away
This conversation's going nowhere
My words are not enough for you
Maybe you just have more to offer than I do, than I do
Looks like the wheels just won't stop
I can see them turning in your eyes
Did you hear the words I spoke to you
Did you bother to hear my side
Will you bother to hear my side
I've been called worse by better
But it really doesn't matter
I don't care what you gotta say
You're gonna watch me smile
You're gonna watch me smile and walk away
