Diet of Cake

I've been on a winning streak
too many days, tell me how many weeks
till the punchline turns the corner
bad things tend to drag their feet
making a good thing absurd to believe
I'm waiting for this sweet dream to sour
[chorus]
doctor, doctor tell me
how can this be healthy
been on a diet of cake
for one too many days
doctor, doctor tell me
is my future wealthy
can I know strength without pain
what good is good without change
I toast champagne to the morning
to the stars in the sky that chaperone in
midnight joyrides down the border
I've seen the face of warning
try and reason with me, stop me from running
I'm counting on this sweet dream to sour
doctor, doctor tell me
how can this be healthy
been on a diet of cake
for one too many days
doctor, doctor tell me
is my future wealthy
can I know strength without pain
what good is good without change
I don't want to feel the pain
of a burning flame burning out
I don’t want to feel the chill of reality
[chorus] x2
I've been on a winning streak

Take It Easy
03:32
|

|
I know, I know the stubborn
nature of a heart broken
dreamer on the mend
I know, I know it's hard to
stomach the pain
of a once found piece now missing
[chorus]
you'll look in a thousand places
but you won't find a replacement
sometimes the cure you seek
is taking time you need
take it easy
I know, I know you feel
you're taking two steps back
and you don't wanna do that dance
I know, I know the taste of
the pills you take
you’re in a rush to get back better days
you'll look in a thousand places
but you won't find a replacement
sometimes the cure you seek
is taking time you need
take it easy
I recall the times
I swore I was ready
I was so unable
I thank God there is
a time to run and a time to heal
my friend, take time you need
[chorus]
I've looked in a thousand places
but I won't find a replacement
sometimes the cure you seek
is taking time you need
take it easy

Sad Song
04:34
|
|||
|
you laugh off a crime like it's comedy
maybe I take life too damn critically
you're too much for me
you toss your thoughts around like confetti
they cut me like a knife leaving a casualty
don't spare me your change while I sing
don't I know the world needs another sad song
all I needed was you to recognize your wrong
how will I cope without the rock that made me strong
you could've saved the world one more sad song
I can't march in your parade one more minute
I won't play your games to hear your trumpet
please give it a rest
things get brutal when being honest
you'll give more than change living so reckless
read between the lines on my breath
don't I know the world needs another sad song
all I needed was you to recognize your wrong
I will cope without the rock that made me strong
I don't need your apologies
you broke my heart, I let it bleed
would you ever know?
I'll always benefit
I love my pain for what it is
a gold medal
don't I know the world needs another sad song
all I need now is nothing you could ever give
I will cope without the rock that made me strong
can never save the world one more sad song

Young Eyes

young eyes in a telescope
hold tight to a clear view of hope
my daring heart won't settle
for things I've hardly seen at all
young eyes sitting on a roof
hold tight to a revolving view
youth fades fast as fireworks
numbers taint what a day's worth
[pre-chorus]
stardust lays on my eyes
looking for constellations in city lights
[chorus]
fever struck me when
I was naive and running
in love, I'm in love
planets line together
pave a life of wonder
hold on, I'm holding on
dreamer selling lemonade
circles on magazine
paper airplane passenger flies
over ants into skylines
gypsy wish to walk the moon
I stay up late talking to
I flirt down sidewalks with my dreams
the first kiss, the taste of glory
stardust lays on my eyes
looking for constellations in city lights
fever struck me when
I was naive and running
in love, I'm in love
planets line together
pave a life of wonder
hold on, I'm holding on
young eyes in a telescope
hold tight to a clear view of hope
my daring heart don’t settle
I’ve hardly seen a thing at all
I’ve hardly seen a thing at all, at all
[chorus]
fever struck me when
I was naive and running
in love, I'm in love
