[Verse 1:] Days pass and I realize After everything has come to light After all the dust has settled And the world seems to calm down After all the men have meddled In the breaking of the crown Makes me realize That you and I we aren’t so different You and I, we couldn’t have meant it We both got caught up in a way where we didn’t know where we were going And I wish it hadn’t’ve come to this But I’m definitely glad that it ended like it did Makes me realize [Chorus:] That I, can't wait one single second longer No I, can't wait one single second longer No, no, no [Verse 2:] Days pass and I think about All the futures I have dreamt aloud About all the time spent thinking Looking for the answers I wish I had About all the good that was sinking Wiped away by all the bad Makes me realize That you and I, there’s something there Unrequited too much to bear Makes me realize [Chorus 2:] That I, can't wait one single second longer No I, Can't wait one single second longer Oh I, Can't wait one single second longer No I, Can't wait one single second longer To be with you

Forget You 04:41
[Verse 1:] You brought me to my knees but I still kiss the ground It’s just another scar on me I’ve found My head’s been aching ‘cause the air’s too thin Lately I’m not telling people where I’ve been And I know that it does me no good To keep sitting here thinking about what could’ve been But I know there’s nothing I can do ‘Cause you can’t expect this world to make sense It’s a lesson that I’ve learned at my own expense The only reason that I know there’s nothing to figure out Is that I’ve been here one too many times to count [Pre-Chorus:] And I know That it goes The same way Get haunted by these [Chorus:] Ghosts of my red-eyes past They keep appearing Because nothing lasts And I know that it’s all in my head With every single word that I wished you’d said But there’s no one but me to blame ‘Cause I’m melting over old flames I torture myself to remember 'Cause you lived your life while I was trying to forget you [Verse 2:] I got Stockholm Syndrome when it comes to you I’m held hostage by that new tattoo That you got right before you told me it was over I never figured out why you were so cold Or why you ended everything in the first place Which makes this whole thing so damn hard to face I got star-crossed eyes and a bleeding heart Getting killed off by you never seemed so smart [Pre-Chorus:] And I know That it goes The same way Get haunted by these [Chorus:] Ghosts of my red-eyes past They keep appearing Because nothing lasts And I know that it’s all in my head With every single word that I wished you’d said But there’s no one but me to blame ‘Cause I’m melting over old flames I torture myself to remember 'Cause you lived your life while I was trying to forget you [Bridge:] Well, you, give me this feeling like I wanna take a Xanax When I see your face every part of me just panics And I know that we don’t need these theatrics But some of us are singers and some of us are manic So I’m over here sitting wishing I could take a Prozac Take away the pain of knowing time never goes back And the more I look around the more I see everybody knows that Except me, so I think “Why do I get this feeling like..?” [Chorus:] Get Haunted by these Ghosts of my red-eyes past They keep appearing Because nothing lasts And I know that it’s all in my head With every single word that I wished you’d said But there’s no one but me to blame ‘Cause I’m melting over old flames I torture myself to remember 'Cause you lived your life while I was trying to forget you

Code Talking 05:00
[Verse 1:] A street sign in the dark But I’ve been down this road before A storm without an ark A visit from a ghost [Pre-Chorus:] The gears all grind Inside my mind It must be getting old The more I try The more I find I can’t believe what I’m told [Chorus:] And I want to quit, but I can’t show my hand And I don’t expect you to understand And I never wanted my past life to end Bluff, but I’ve never been one to pretend [Verse 2:] A beautiful traitor But I can’t say I blame her An army of believers An admission I need her [Pre-Chorus:] The gears all grind Inside my mind It must be getting old The more I try The more I find I can’t believe what I’m told [Chorus:] And I want to quit, but I can’t show my hand And I don’t expect you to understand And I never wanted my past life to end Bluff, but I’ve never been one to pretend [Bridge:] Oh my I seem to realize that they’ve been talking about me And I bleed Just like any other man would Nail through the hand Should I be pulling out my four-leaf clover Got drunk off your love but now I feel hungover Chemicals in my brain defame this fall from grace And I can’t explain this rain cloud that’s been following me around It’s so unlike me Need someone to right me Wake me up from this bad dream because it’s way too frightening Wake me up, lying in my bed Half awake and three words from dead Found my way I just play pretend Wait four years for this night to end Finally reach the end of this pain But I still can’t quite find the words to say Hold back the lies, then watch them run away And let the chips fall where they may [Chorus:] And I want to quit, but I can’t show my hand And I don’t expect you to understand And I never wanted my past life to end Bluff, but I’ve never been one to pretend

[Verse 1:] Oh I’ve been around Enough to know the girl When I see her walking my direction And I know enough To look past the empty stares And to pardon all the indiscretion ‘Cause she never really wanted to make a scene She just got caught up in the make-believe Said they love to watch you fall But they never stick around when they make you bleed She can’t be blamed for the drink she chased With every bad choice she decided to make But that won’t stop the kids from talking No… [Chorus:] They call her Miss Communication She talks with her hips ‘Cause she don’t got much to say Darling I would wager There’s a better use for lips Than what you do to guys when they say Let’s Dance Let's Dance [Verse 2:] Blow the horn again ‘Cause it’s time for her to send The callout to her loyal rejects Paint the whole town red ‘Cause it’s easier than trying to send The demons out of royal rehab And she knows it’s no way to live But she looks in the mirror and she thinks “What do I got left to give?” [Chorus:] They call her Miss Communication She talks with her hips ‘Cause she don’t got much to say Darling I would wager There’s a better use for lips Than what you do to guys when they say Let’s Dance Let's Dance [Bridge:] Spend her life waiting for the turn around She can feel it coming Came here to listen to the music But she wound up dancing to the drumming [Repeat x4] The beat never failed you [Instrumental break] Drop it [Chorus:] They call her Miss Communication She talks with her hips ‘Cause she don’t got much to say Darling I would wager There’s a better use for lips Than what you do to guys when they say Let’s Dance Let's Dance [Outro:] Let's Dance Let's Dance
