No Mistaking 04:07
I feel asleep on the airplane Yeah I had nowhere to go Listening to nothing on my headphones With the city drifting by below And I don’t know why but I can’t stop thinking about it All the times when we were hurt but didn’t say so Turn the volume knob clockwise As I drift up through the skies And let it go Let it go And I’ve been waking up My heart is breaking But it’s fine Yeah I feel fine I couldn’t make this up Ain’t no mistaking What’s yours and mine Yours and mine I don’t wanna waste your time I don’t wanna waste your time I fell asleep in the backseat Of a compact sedan I was dreaming of a smooth ride I’m a pragmatic kind of man And I don’t know why but I can’t stop thinking about it All the ways in which it didn’t work as planned Relax, accelerate And let the memories dissipate In the exhaust Let’s get lost And I’ve been waking up My heart is breaking But it’s fine Yeah I feel fine I couldn’t make this up Ain’t no mistaking What’s yours and mine Yours and mine I don’t wanna waste your time I don’t wanna waste your time

Vacant Skies 04:41
I was waiting on the future And now it’s come and gone I’m cooling in my room with the curtains drawn Writing in my diary But they already know what’s going on Catching up on the old news It’s the only thing that keeps me calm I gotta move along Because you’re doing me wrong I gotta move along Because I’m doing you wrong I was waiting on tomorrow But then the sun didn’t rise I went about my business under vacant skies Walking down the aisles Oh I’m just trying to live as advertised When the clock stopped ticking That was the moment that I realized I gotta move along Because I’m doing you wrong I gotta move along Because you’re doing me wrong Out on a bike ride Cause I got nowhere to go And I’m thinking about the things that you can never know The shadows were falling The silence was solidifying The only logical thing to do was break down and cry This is the sequence of the letters The record of the time Dividing up our days into yours and mine Running through the aisles And screwing up my eyes to read the signs But now it’s all on file And I don’t have to look between the lines I gotta move along Because I’m doing you wrong I gotta move along Because I’m doing you wrong The blackout curtains are drawn The air conditioner’s on It’s how I’m sleeping through the night A little older A little closer to the other side I spent a long while looking at the skies up above I saw a lot of sunsets but it wasn’t enough It wasn’t enough Well I woke up alone With my location unknown Bathed in blinding white light And I rubbed my eyes And wondered whether I should laugh or cry You said you knew all along That we were all wrong Well what if you were right What if you were right?
