We are the warning lights Pretense of all your fear We are the warning lights To stabilize the pressure We are the warning lights Stuck in an overcast We are the warning lights Signs of a power failure We are the warning lights Hugging the rails and holding We are the warning lights Eye in the hurricane We are the warning lights Urgent and overdriven We are the warning lights The pretense of all your money gone It’s all gone This is happening This is a war This is not over No this is not This is not over We are the warning lights Call out for better future We are the warning lights Reset and unplug the system We are the warning lights Yea, and we stick together We are the warning lights The pretense of all your money gone It’s all gone It's all gone

Don’t hate on me Don’t hate on me, are you listening Don’t hate on me I’m just another target of interest I been prophesying new religions Where gods don’t ever judge you I been thinking ‘bout these propositions What they’ve all been saying, and I just don’t get it I wanna kiss in the rain on the beach, I’m gonna I wanna hold your hand No is a very hard to say, a very very harsh word to say Don’t hate on me Don’t hate on me, are you listening Don’t hate on me I’m just another target of interest I been retrofit and fascinated by the love I’ve come to know and to exist They say a lot like they know my heart Kayla’s got a smile and a face but she can’t quite speak it out The same things as everyone They throw a label and they throw a bone But when the sayings grow old Can they, can they take it back Don’t hate on me Don’t hate on me, are you listening Don’t hate on me I’m just another target of interest Oh and he said Kevin was a disappointment but I’m trying, trying, trying to get over it They gave a blank stare, said they didn’t get it He said Neither do I and put the bottle to his lips And he drank, drank, drank to good times They say a lot like they know my heart They say a lot like they know my heart They say a lot like they know my heart They say a lot like they know my heart

Christian David was a good man Everybody should've known Couldn’t handle all the pressure He did not want to die alone So fit, they took so many pictures Made them appreciate the flesh I haven’t gotten yet to meet him But then I haven’t met me yet Let’s pretend for one second we’re strangers And nobody in the world is fake I watch ‘em all like I watch a play But what do they know anyway I hear they’re building in the sky I know they’d be the first to ride Whether it be on / off set I’m sure they get their letters by jet Johnny Hazzard was a bad man Everybody should’ve known I looked at him as if to judge yet We share a relative unknown So close to all the danger Humans they naturally attract It takes you years to build upon what It took a second to subtract Let’s pretend for one second we’re strangers And nobody in the world is fake I watch ‘em all like I watch a play But what do they know anyway I hear they’re building in the sky I know they’d be the first to ride Whether it be on / off set I’m sure they get their letters by jet

In Lullabies 05:11
Do you remember when, when they tried to tear us down Well maybe they were right I watch the pieces collide I want you by my side Tonight I sleep designed within your lullabies Just another disappointment They’re just skirting on the surface Knowing it won’t be the same I awake to all the fear I want you by my side Tonight I sleep designed within your lullabies And all the stars align for you in everything you do I’m just crushed to fit an outline The skin’s a burden to the mind And while the world sleeps I just call and you appear But you’re not there to listen to me Distractor Too fast too much too soon You don’t own me I never knew her, just what I thought she was They attach and they’ll slip Make believe just what you want I’m vulnerable and tired I’m on my knees and I’ll Meet you in lullabies Too fast too much too soon You don’t own me And while the world sleeps, I just call and you appear Too fast too much too soon You’re all over me In lullabies In lullabies

Bubblegum 02:35
I never knew Found out about you You cannot save it now I never thought Chewed bubblegum pop It’s like you tuned yourself out and off Through the wire Uncoil the chord It just don’t strike me Down to its core I tried to piece Together your reasons But nothing ever stuck Kill me in kind Kill me in lies She colored in the lines Through the wire Uncoil the chord It just don’t strike me Down to its core I travel out of this town So afraid of something new They keep you tied Through the wire Uncoil the chord It just don’t strike me Down to its core I never knew Found out about you You chewed on bubblegum

Caroline 03:23
Isn’t it a tragedy That every little step we built gets pulled You always learn the rules and yet You don’t tell what you don’t show Caroline, Caroline Every little barricade Everything we stand for will get through And nature heals the heaviness When we all live in what they drew For you, for you Caroline, Caroline There’s nothing they can argue with That gets them past the bone I’m caught up in her arms Caroline, Caroline

Insecurities 04:31
We all want to be lifted Lifted to a better place A place where there’s no traffic circling All that what you were now coming back Clean shaven in Dalston flats I pretend that you understand All we are, all we’re not, all we’ll gain from the thought These insecurities are choking me I struggle to find clarity in all our confidence Watch them walk with bedroom eyes Keeping themselves apart We don’t have to live like that We’ll figure it out together, we’ll figure it out together All that what you were now coming back Separate and re-connect To shut off the machine for a minute Maybe you’ll see All we are, all we’re not, all we’ll gain from the thought These insecurities are choking me I struggle to find clarity in all our confidence These insecurities are choking me I struggle to find clarity in all our confidence

How It Feels 03:30
You don’t know how it feels Take a good look at yourself you won’t be this young forever Did you think you could rise up without the years that kept ya You don’t know how it feels I don’t need a blank slate just some gin and somebody Just give me something that I’d like to remember If people would just listen But no one ever fucking listens You don’t know how it feels When the feelings run out, drag you down, keep pushing They say son you should get up and start moving You don’t know how it feels You don't know how it feels You don't know how it feels
