Obstacles
02:44

We are not just obstacles
We're hearts and teeth and flesh and bones
Yes we will leave when you say go
We are not disposable
We're more than records, books, or clothes
You let us think if you as home
You let us think we had it made
You never saw just what we gave
You treated all of us the same
We don't see life as a course
We don't get brains that think like yours
They're lined with mirrors and one way doors
But you, you're not what you think you are
And we had that feeling all along
And now we're putting it into a song
To hope you see
To let you know
That we are not just obstacles

Just Like You
03:49

I feel deeply
And I won't ever be sorry for that
Of course things move me
And if they didn't I'd be strangely detached
Just like you
Like a web you keep on spinning
And your denial doesn't make it go away
You knew what you were doing
And now you're drowning in this bed that you have made
We both knew
We both knew you were never mine
We both knew
I was only what you wanted at the time
I keep moving
While you seem to keep running in place
I'm proud of who surrounds me
And would not ever feel the need to replace
Just like you
We both knew
We both knew you were never mine
Just like you
I was only what you wanted at the time
At the time
At the time
You weren't mine
I'll be fine
All in time

Shallow End
03:28
|
|||
You're wading around
And I'm already in the deep end
Completely submerged
And I'm waiting around
For an impossible perfect moment
That won't ever occur
But I can't tread water forever
You find comfort in the shallow end
While I am lost without a paddle when
I was floating around
In the midst of a hopeful haze
That I wasn't sure was there to stay
But I fell to the ground
As a cloud of doubt took its place
I guess it's safer for me anyway
But I can't leave the ground whenever
No, I can't float around forever
You find comfort in the shallow end
While I am lost without a paddle when
You find comfort in the shallow end
Why won't you just dive in?
I'm feeling pretty sure
I'm gonna make my way to the shore
'Cause I can't tread water anymore
You find comfort in the shallow end
While I am lost without a paddle when
You find comfort in the shallow end
Are you always afraid to swim?

Mountain Conscience
04:36
|
|||
You can't be the hero and a villain all at once
Your conscience is a mountain
That Iies hidden in your spine
But yours works in reverse
And just grows taller over time
I've been hiding for most of my life
But not because I was ashamed to show
All of the things that made me what I've become
I was not sure then, but now I know
You can't be the hero and a villain all at once
Emotions swell like tides flow
In the oceans of our souls
But your moon fell out of orbit
And surrendered ebb and flow
I've taken the time to learn from myself
Who I am and who I'm reaching to be
I talk it through instead of bottle it up
I float above us to where I'm free
Now that you know it's over
(It's over now)
Now that you know it's over
(You don't look down)
Now that you know it's over
(You stand your ground)
Now that you know it's over
You can't be the hero and a villain all at once

Figure It Out
05:54
|
|||
You were not like anyone
And you were all my reasons for so long
And we felt the same about the sun
But you looked at me like I could be anyone
There's a space that we create that isn't always visible
But you couldn't shake that yours was never really full
So you tried to fill that space with someone else
It's too bad you couldn't see you have to fill it for yourself
Come on and figure it out
So now when I see you regret is seeping from your pores
Which is strange because it's based on a decision that was yours
And now I'm by myself and it just doesn't feel so bad
Because I'm filling up that space you reminded me I had
I'm gonna figure it out
