Tryin' Hard

You’re not listenin’
Might as well be 30,000 feet in the air
Well I don’t mind, I don’t mind truly
That you’d rather be anywhere but here
Well I’m tryin’ hard to be here with you now,
But you won’t make it easy
Yes I’m right here in this moment while you’re out
Floating in space
Well it’s not my place to snap my fingers and say
Would you be my only
But I surely do believe at very least
That you could jet and go and get
The one that you are oh so clearly missing
Or you could stay, and say what’s on your mind
What’s got you oh so clearly misaligned

Slow Burn

Put down the phone girl, I gotta go girl
I just can’t make this scene
My suit’s an ocean that I can’t float in
Fake under satin sheen
Baby best believe I’m tryin’
Shine light where light should shed
But right now I’d just be lyin’
If this went unsaid, Oh
Don’t go waitin’ up on me girl, Your time is precious
Why spend your days correctin’ this man who can’t be told
That life’s for simple pleasures, take them as they come
My heart is far too restless, so best to just let me run, oh don’t
Out in the suburbs at baby showers
White whine on the tongues
Of power couples, their troubled nuptials
Never undersung
Is this the path before me
Is this what lays ahead
‘Cause if so just keep on ignoring me
Might as well be, well be...
Don’t go waitin’ up on me girl, Your time is precious
Why spend your days correctin’ this man who can’t be told
That life’s for simple pleasures, take them as they come
My heart is far too restless, so best to just let me run, oh don’t
I can promise you I'll fall
Can't promise I won't call
When night envelops me,
And the safety of your sweet embrace shines on
A gift I can't reclaim
So just call me by name
And let me keep on tumblin',
You and I both know, I'm good as gone
Don’t go waitin’ up on me girl, Your time is precious
Why spend your days correctin’ this man who can’t be told
That life’s for simple pleasures, take them as they come
My heart is far too restless, so best to just let me run, oh don’t

Collarbone

Collarbone, pokin' out
issuin' a vicious
invitation to consume
to sweat the makeup off your face
yes it's a race,
and y'ain't gonna finish last
You had me shell-shocked
knocked back by a blast of perfume
a whisper over my shoulder
the number of your room
you had me half cocked,
walkin' outta that door and from
That moment on
I knew I had to have you
take my stab at you
And if I'd known
how much you'd hurt me
i would still grab at you,
take my stab at you
Shakin' hands, rakin' pointed fingers
over a skeleton back,
oven rackin' up the heat
your lips are sweet
but your tongue is cruel
so I twist twist twist your crank,
a pull turns to a yank,
and I wonder which face I'll see
and what song is comin'
out of your music box
what vox I can coax
out of your silver-lined throat, from...
That moment on
I knew I had to have you
take my stab at you
And if I'd known
how much you'd hurt me
i would still grab at you,
take my stab at you

White Noise

Every time I come around, it’s always the same
It’s all my fault and I’m the one to be blamed
Well I gotta get out, gotta get away
You’re givin’ me absolutely no reason to stay
Yes, yours is a game I’m too tired to play
Keep playin’ it coy, but I’m not about to put up with this white noise
And I’d say you’re right if you’ve changed the tune of this parade
But we’re still walkin’ the same lines, and the truth has made itself plain
That I gotta get out, gotta get away
You’re givin’ me absolutely no reason to stay
Yes, yours is a game I’m too tired to play
Keep playin’ it coy, but I’m not about to put up with this white noise...

Honest Man

Well I haven’t been much in the mood for love songs
But the sight of you makes me wanna change my tune
I been crawlin’ along on my own for so long
Won’t you come and lift me to my feet someday soon
Yes I know you know I’m waitin’ for you
But I want you to know I want only you
And I know you say I’ve got a reputation
But tell me, what would you have an honest man do
Well I love all women like I love the sunrise
But lately I’ve been seein’ plenty of both
You can chase and chase but someday you’ll just realize
The only tail you’re chasin’ is your own
What I mean to say, is I like the way
You claim the spotlight
Eyes slung low, sly smile
Showing nothing more than your face
I wanna know what you’ve got goin’ on
Wanna make you feel alright,
Won’t you come and put me right down
In my place
Please believe me now, I know I can be faithful
I can’t wait any longer for the stars to align
So won’t you come down off your pedestal, and hear me baby
I want you I want you I want you to be mine
Oh won’t you come on down and be mine
