Come Undone 03:05
Now I’m lying on the couch And I’m talking to myself Maybe there’s something I can do But my mind won’t let my body move It’s come undone It’s come undone It’s like it’s happening on the TV This can’t be real, oh yes it can be I guess I’m waiting on a sign To know that everything’s alright It’s come undone It’s come undone Let’s put it in rewind Can we go back in time? Do you remember way back when? No, you won’t even listen It’s come undone It’s come undone

Break Me 04:22
Gonna hit the road today I think I’m going far away Search for something, search for anything That I can find Falling down, in our conversation I can’t stand, walking by your side Send down, send some clean persuasion Break me, from the inside Ain’t taking much with me I’ll go as far as I can see But there’s a girl that hung me up I never said the things I should Chorus We fought about so many things Was scarier than dreams We made so many plans, kept a few of them It’s so simple, it’s so clear Chorus
3.
Walking up another hill My feet are tired and sore The evening sun is shining bright But I wish the rain would pour Broken, beat down and busted Never been here before Broken, beat down and busted I’m a long way from home Knew the ocean wasn’t far away Walked until I heard the waves Ended up down in Margaretsville But the ocean wouldn’t comfort me Chorus Just had to get away from you Kept walking on and on Somehow it didn’t help me I guess I was wrong Walking up another hill My feet are tired and sore The evening sun is shining bright But I wish the rain would pour Chorus
4.
I’ve been pickin’ up the pieces Like I’ve been frozen in an ice chest Everything feels so different It’s not the way I remember it Scattered all around me Little bits and pieces And you’re running through my head Now I’m fumbling through the evidence But it seems like it’s meaningless Got to start at the beginning At least I know where I’m going Scattered all around me Little bits and pieces And you’re running through my head Repeat Chorus I’ve been pickin’ up the pieces
5.
I’ve been travelling for a long time now Lost track of the miles between my wheels and the ground Burning gas, burning days I hope this rambling ‘round is only just a phase I wanna go away, way back home again Where these troubles can set me free Down in the valley they say, the sun shines everyday That is all I’ll that I’ll ever need Been locked out and I been shut in Nobody seems to care what kind of shape I’m in Though my mind’s in such a haze I’ll take some time for me and think of better days Chorus The smoke is heavy but the air is thin I sit at the bar and I order up some gin With many miles left to go Will I make it there, I guess I’ll never know Chorus

Wait For It 03:29
A man once told me, Be careful son There’s people out there, That’ll drag you down Me, I’ve always tried to, See the best in everyone But lately I’ve been feeling like him Wait for it A kid once told me, Be careful sir There’s machines out there, That’ll chew you up Me, I’ve always tried to, See the good in everything But lately I’ve been feeling like him Wait for it Been away for all these years Had to ration out my tears Why’d you come here anyway? Is there something you want to say? Wait for it
8.
Face Down 03:26
Look at you on that stage Feel like part of me is dying Lately you’ve been working so hard I don’t fee like trying You’ve got a lot of nerve So some might say Everything I give to you You take away You said I was special You said that I was the one Look at me stretched out on the ground I’m lying face down Even with a thousand fluffy mattresses I could still feel you in my side You’re like a pain that never goes away You’ll always be my apple pie Refrain Chorus
9.
Point A 05:02
He don’t want to leave his home, But he’s heading out again. Make some money, pay the bills, He’ll be back, but not sure when. Yeah the streets are paved with gold, But your family’s left behind. You long to hear the ocean roar, And ease your worried mind. His back’s against the wall, This life’s no life at all. But he won’t stop living, He just keeps on singing. No he won’t stop giving, He just keeps on singing. Some say just pack it all in, And move point A to B. But point A is all he knows, And all he’ll ever need. Chorus This story’s been told before; It’s happening more and more. But he just can’t back down, No one ever taught him how. He sings a song about uprooted people, And those words just seem to explain. How a home is more than windows and doors, And point B, just ain’t the same. Chorus

Unbearable 03:05
You like playing silly games I must have liked them too You had me on a string What was I to do? You’re unbearable, you got me reelin’ And I’m a memory in the back of your mind You’re an accident, waiting to happen But the next time it won’t be mine I was young and so naive You were on the prowl I thought I knew what I was doing But just look at me now Chorus Sometimes I get to thinking I think about you But lately I’ve been wondering If you think about me too? Chorus
11.
There was a boy He grew up on the South Coast Loved fishing and going out in boats Playing hockey on the pond There was a girl She grew up on a different Bay Smart and pretty she knew she’d find her way Out of that town Years later Their paths crossed Young and foolish they both got lost In love There came a day When happy endings faded away That’s how it goes That’s how it goes…
