Ready to Blow

I'll rest my hands upon that bible
And cross my heart
Saw you in the company
Of somebody who made you feel pretty smart
But you can only adorn
Your walls with all the money you spend
Yeah, they can only give you confidence
If you let them into your head
And I'll rest my back upon the
Bed that you and I have made
This life may be a circus
But I'll be damned if I'ma be a part of your parade
So drag me down the road
But let me off at Washington
I'm sorry that I let you down
I didn't know we weren't having fun
Oh, she's ready to blow
And you're the last one to know
I can't keep this quiet
When you've been hurting me however you want
And nothing's ever private when you're
The king of all the castles on this city block
I know you've got a lot of things
That you ain't gonna never resolve
Like a secret, a message, a lover
Admission of fault
Oh, she's ready to blow
And you're the last one to know
We couldn't leave it alone
It's time to bring it home

The Hell Did We Do

The hell did you do to me
All in one silly night?
I'm already missing you
When I don't have you here in my sight
And I know we're just passing through
But here I am, taking my time
Did I come here to find you
Or did I come here to watch you go by?
The hell was I thinking
Letting whispers know me down like a wave?
The coward I am
I thought I was just being brave
But you've plucked the strings
On an instrument you never learned
Just knew how to play
And nobody knows this tune
But it's been in my head all day
Nothing spells disaster
Like loving a good one like you
But nothing can pass for perfection in my life
The way that you do
The hell have we brought to the surface
With my fear of all of this falling away?
The hell did we do
And how do we know what's gonna build
And what's gonna break?
The hell did you do to me?
What the hell did you do to me?
Have I lost it, well probably
But not found it in time
The fuck am I saying?
We don't know anything
And I'm not complaining, my dear
I just need to shut up and breathe
But you've dragged my heart
From the cave where it dwelt
Where there's fire, there can be no sleep
So please tell me
Tell me what the hell, baby?
The hell did you do to me
All in one silly night?
Did I come here to find you
Or come here to watch you go by?

One Foot

I could have written all of a symphony
In all of the time it took you to believe
All those voices rolling 'round inside your head
And nothing I say is gonna placate you now
I drew you a map, and you gave it back to me
How far did you think you were gonna get?
Your hands, they shake
While you still wait
Standing outside
And you won't break from
This track you're on
Just open your eyes
Whoever has it, bury the hatchet here
No way you believe it's better to live in fear
To live that way is waiting for a sign
A sign that a miracle lives right down the street
That seeking it out is a reason to stay on your feet
What even are you looking for this time?
Your hands they shake
While you still wait
Standing outside
And you won't break from
This track you're on
Just open your eyes
Whoever has them, lay down your weapons
No way you believe it's better to live
With one foot out the door
Your hands they shake
While you still wait
Standing outside
And you won't break from
This track you're on
Just open your eyes
You've got one foot out the door,
Don't fear the other
