Happiness is going out of style
Pretend you are miserable for a while
Bright and beautiful are on trial
We’re introducing you to a smile

Typing on my phone - two in the morning
I’m drifting off in no time
But when cranky, cross TV wakes up to warn me
Are we only living part time?
Why can’t we just talk about it
Together??????
When you’re in that photo zone
Will I paint my famous picture?
Will I know (I know I know I know I know I know I know)
Your butterfly kisses on the phone?
Why can’t we just talk about it?
I know it’s hard to talk about it
But baby we could talk about it
Together!!!!
Why can’t we just talk about it?
Why can’t we just talk about it?
Why can’t we just talk about it?
Together

I’m not that far down the road
Even in the evening when it’s starting to show.
Same old places where do you wanna go.
I stopped to put in control
Everything I wished and wanted outta the hole,
All new faces who do you wanna know.
See the open road and it’s calling me,
Take a walk to see who you outta be.

Honeybee
I get the feeling
They’re up against us
Should we be nervous?
Heavy and honeycombed
They’re cutting my sweet tooth
For telling the whole truth
They take us into separate rooms
Why can’t I hear you?
I wanna be near you
Leaving me
And loving you
You be the leader
And I’m your repeater
A shaky start
From worlds apart
Different voices
And infinite choices
Cherry red
Your garden bed
Signing divorces
And watching the horses

I fell for the charm
It made it into my brain
Let’s get together once again and hang before we change
My stay was so nice
I couldn’t thank you enough
I’ll never find the words to tell you what I’m thinking of
And though we’re alone
Every once in a while
I want all of our friends to be around us
And although it feels so important sometimes
Don’t be nervous
I sink slow into bed
As deep as ever before
I feel a shakin’ achin’ bakin’ tingle to my core
My cherry pit kiss
I wanna tickle your toes
So I can ask for you to stay again before you go
I can’t pin it down
But I’ve felt it before
I’ve got a head start on getting better
Magnolia trees
Rubbery leaves
And your letters
I made you a tape
I won’t be out very long
The bumpy rumble of that highway goes with any song

Fluff = Nothing
04:13

I focus on the push and pulling gap in my chest
I wonder if it’s different now cuz it’s for the best
I thought it was important just to give it a rest
But now I’m thinking nothing
This week is the week I set aside for myself
But time I spend alone just puts me under the spell
My memories check in at the forever motel
Where nothing ever happens
Maybe I should dig for better words when I say
That maybe all the words I use are really ok
I’m saying what I’m feeling and I’m giving it straight
The fluff is next to nothing

Full Time Smile

Second chances disappear without a trace
We’re in a place where our mistakes are written down and not erased
What’s the point when everybody thinks they’re right?
When we’re not arguing we fight
It took me a long time, it took me a while
And I’m sorry
But now I’m on full-time making you smile
So don’t worry
We talked in circles until we got dizzy
I tried to walk, I couldn’t stand
So I sat down to hold your hand
And I realize after all this petty while
I make you cry more than I made you smile
It took me a long time, it took me a while
And I’m sorry
But now I’m on full time making you smile
So don’t worry
I am on full time making you smile
Don’t worry

I’m grasping for breath if I don’t wanna see,
I can’t wait for a minute - there’s nothing on me.
I reach for another firm grip on your face,
I can’t seem to forget how I’m left in this place.
Autumn leaves falling and all the birds calling,
You wish for a ferris wheel aching for love.
Is there one for you, the last of them tore you to
pieces like autumn leaves fading away.

Well it’s a feeling that you don’t get all of the time but you need it
To be a steady rock and roller, just a one of a kind, undefeated
We spent the last three weeks thinking life is a game and we beat it
But are we playing by the rules, or are we counting the cards, are we cheating?
I’m ashamed to say it crossed my mind
More than just a couple times
That you and I are never gonna die
Spending seven out of 24 hours a day on computers
NO!
Are we expanding our minds or just becoming the best troubleshooters?
When the flowers start booming on my family tree
Is everybody gonna pick the petals right off of me?
And press my body in a book that double-features as a diary?
I’m ashamed to say it crossed my mind
More than just a couple times
That you and I are never gonna die

Steering myself home so late,
Sinking in my seat a long way home
I’m sorry I said I wouldn’t be late,
Skipping puts my head up on straight
Closer to the road an empty picture you can’t seal
Call you way back home to put a patch over your wheel
To know just for today,
I’m pulling you away
A lighthouse shining down my way,
Feel the golden color on your face
A big black spinning ocean highway,
It’s easy to get lost in the race
Freight train thoughts like missiles going a hundred miles an hour
Watch the thorns and thistles if they turn your feelings sour
A piece to fill the hole,
Somewhere down in my soul

Lately I’ve been feeling deranged
Is it psychosis or the stuff of the age?
There’s one thing that I know we can save
I’ll call you later
It’s time for us to roll on the show
I’m glad we finally caught that happy we go
Jeremy isn’t digging their clothes
But he’s a hater
We’re kidding ourselves if we ask
For a 3 minute rocker to last forever
I’m not kidding, I’m just happy to be
Sinking into you and watching TV
Fred and Carrie and some gingery tea
Out in the open
Conversations with our favorite friends
The little pops that say to play them again
Reconciling and making amends
But are they golden?
We’re kidding ourselves if we ask
For a 3 minute rocker to last forever
We are the fools who demand
You do it for the good of the band, forever
