(Chorus)
Maybe I just don’t follow
How everyone can take a lead
We were made together
And dispersed like maple seeds
But seeds don’t grow on the concrete
But seeds don’t grow on the concrete
Maybe if I took that route
To some different whereabouts
Oh why would you ever wish me well?
I would rather hang with you
Make it like we used to do
The universe in a lens of pastel
When the floodwater comes
Erodes away to where
Nothing remains
I was hoping you’d still be there
But your heart is someplace else
And I’m losing my fight
Through the night I can’t tell whether I’m wrong or right.
(Chorus)
So can you hang around?
Nostalgia’s a real, real, real good high
But I’m coming down
And sometimes I wonder what I’m doing here
In this old town
But don’t break all your promises now
It wouldn’t be right
But when the floodwater comes
Erodes away to where
Nothing remains
I was hoping you’d still be there
But your heart is someplace else
And I’m losing my fight
Through the night I can’t tell whether I’m wrong or right.
(Chorus)

One Tide

Most people wanna go
Wherever they belong
Fair is letting them take pieces of you on
I’d let you take all of me so I can go along with you
Well this one tide is rolling along with something new
Atop the ferris wheel
There’s a cycle to complete
People come unstuck from one another and repeat
And I don’t feel like myself every time I do
Well this one tide is rolling along with something new
One tide, two tides
One story, Infinite sides
Some waves wash people ashore and some carry them away
All that I know is that I know how to stay
One tide, two tides
Killed vibes, good times
You don’t even have to ask if I want to
Well this one tide is rolling along with something new
They pack their bags and throw their money into their dreams
To grab the world by the seams
To get a taste of the cream
When I’m in the music I’m as happy as I can be
You know I would do it for free
You know I would do it for free
You know I would do it for free
You know I would do it for free
You know I would do it for...

Do it out of spite oh yes I do it out of spite
Back when I needed a hand,
Like Maradona
They told me to sprint
But all along it was a marathon
Well I’m out of shape
So I can’t hope for second place
You had it all
I hit a wall before I graduated
(Chorus)
I close every door
When things get bad,
I run and hide
I close every door
It’s no surprise
I do it out of spite,
Yes I do it out of spite
You found someone new
I went to Peru, to visit my roots
You thought I’d come crawling back to you
Don’t worry I thought I would too
At least you’re doing good
Yeah you’re doing oh so good
I’m doing me
Evidently I am sad and lonely
(Bridge)
Mama I love you and
Daddy I miss you and
I am so sorry that
I am so distant but
That’s how you raised me and
I wish you could see me now
Darling I need you wait
No I do not need you, I
Walk out the door but
You can see right through me
I would be anything you wanted from me
You got my heart girl set it free
(Chorus)
I close every door when things get bad I run and hide (x8)
