Beach Song

To the beach I go instead
Of dealing with the things that are in my head
Any time of day, my anxiety
Like salt on a snail it melts away, yeah
To the beach, would you come with me
If you wanna be part of my fantasy
Underwater you can't see
All the ghosts of the past that keep on bugging me, yeah
Join my underwater fantasy
You and me should go
To the beach
Meet me under the the sea
To the beach
A break from reality
Life's a beach or so I'm told
And I wanna have a sandcastle when I'm old
Where if you feel like a fish on land
You can kick it with someone who understands
Join my underwater fantasy
When your life is calamity
In the sandy serenity
Find the person you’re meant to be
Meet me where the land meets the sea
You will see
That the beach is where you need to be

Sweets

We only met three times
Never even held your hand
Tried to make you mine
But fate had other plans
And that’s okay, I’m not a baby, I’ll find a way
Did I seem nervous
At the end of our last night
No cell service
Just that kiss goodbye
And I rode that wave all the way to my station
Now future memories of our life
Vanish in the air
Oh, how I wish i didn’t care
It’s give and take in this life
You don’t always get what you’d like
How do they do it, the people who move on without a care
We never got that far,
And I know it's a mistake
But I think I fell too hard
And that’s something I can’t shake
You said I’ll miss you, I said me too, and I still do
We kissed each other then
Underneath the streets
I came back from Sweden
And I brought you all the sweets that you asked for
But by then you didn’t want them anymore
Now future memories of our life
Vanish in the air
Oh, how I wish i didn’t care
It’s give and take in this life
You don’t always get what you’d like
How do they do it, the people who move on without a care

Our Game

When I was young my mama said
If you spend time with only people like you,
Child, let me tell you one simple truth
You live that way you’ll never learn something new
Getting tired of this, oh oh
Am I supposed to get to know ya?
Our game's getting old, oh oh
Am I supposed to get to touch ya?
My pain troubles you more than me
Tonight, tomorrow, maybe next year, we'll see
S’all about me, and you're hiding cause what, I'm not strong?
If this is right please show me with whom I belong
Getting tired of this, oh oh
Am I supposed to get to know ya?
Our game's getting old, oh oh
Am I supposed to get to hold ya?
No, no, there’s no doubt about it
Can’t live with, can’t live without it
No, no, there’s no way around it
It’s our game and I want out, out of it

Working For The Company

I gotta feed my family, so I got a job today
Working for a company, but there’s a feeling I can’t shake;
That we’re in danger, that we’re in danger
Oh you better watch your face, when you’re exploring this place
I saw something sneak around in the shadows, and now I can’t find my mates
Yeah, we’re in danger, yeah we’re in danger
Oh they said it would be easy money, working for the company
Will I ever get to see my honey, working for the company
Something’s lurking ‘round the corner, But I gotta fill up that quota
Take my advice, don’t be like me!
I’m working for the company~
We’re all working for the company~
I miss that old job of mine, but I could never get in line
I shoulda listened to my boss, not kick up a fuzz ‘cause they didn’t pay me overtime
Now I’m in danger, yeah I’m in danger
I just heard my buddy scream… I’m staying silent, not a peep
Not a sound coming through on the radio, just a fading blue screen
It’s coming for me… It’s coming for me…
Whatever it is… IT’S COMING FOR ME!
Oh they said it would be easy money, working for the company
Will I ever get to see my honey, working for the company
Something’s lurking ‘round the corner, But I gotta fill up that quota
Take my advice, don’t be like me!
I’m working for the company~
My flashlight’s already dead
And that thing tore off Barry’s head
And what’s worse, we’re still in the red
We’re all working for the company~

Do You Remember?
04:09
|

I get this feeling that makes me whole
Of the time when you first touched my soul
Those days gave us only blue skies
Under this tree where you first kissed a guy
Do you remember, do you remember the time
I couldn’t help myself but laugh when you cried
Do you remember, do you remember the time
We first said goodbye
Ain’t it funny how time flies so fast
Like my future, it’s soon in the past
Back when there was not a trouble on this mind
And not in this world thought I’d leave you behind
Do you remember, do you remember the time
We stayed up to watch the moon all night
Do you remember, do you remember the time
Of our last goodbye
Do you remember, baby
How we used to dance
I wish I was sixteen again
And had another chance
I get this feeling that makes me whole
Like the feeling of coming back home
Back when there wasn’t a cloud in the sky
The time I had to tell you goodbye
