Track Name: Four Flights and a Drive
she turns the light off
and comes to bed
kisses me goodnight
but I can't seem to rest my head

and that road to Dallas
is a long walk
sometimes it makes me wish I
had never even met you at all

red lights go back
white lights go forward
a shadow is cast from that wooden door
and I see all my friends, up there on the wall

and I wait all night
but I can't think right
cause I know that I can't want to love you still

and I wait all night
and I hold this girl tight
but I'm not foolin' myself
cause I know that shes not you

so I think of someone new
but I can't keep from coming back to you
years past and plane tickets gone unused
but I'm still writing songs
and am constantly reminded of you
Track Name: The Way I See It
the way I see it
I won't be breathin' by the end of this
and I'm not seein'
the air I'm needin' so I can live

do I take it back or take it far
do I give it up or give my all
cause I'm not seein no I'm not seein
another chance to feel these feelings

did the curtain fall
did I take my bow
is the show finally over now
do I sing along by myself?
I don't want to sing with no one else

the way I see it
I won't stop bleedin' till I'm out of this
and I'm not seein
a light at the end of this abyss

we're not in this by ourselves
we hold each other we hold nothing else
and now I'm seeing
these doors aren't closing they're just repeating

I write a letter to myself
saying my goodbyes to how I felt
and I thought it was time
that the end was near but I was fine

so I said
so long to this life
maybe I'll see you again sometime
so long to this life
of thinking everythings wrong, but its fine.
Track Name: We Used to Vacation
I kissed the kids at noon
then stumbled out the room
I caught a cab ran up a tab
at seventh and flower

best recital I had to ruin
missed my sons graduation
punched the nickels boy for takin' his seat
he gets all that anger from me

still this could be much worse
natural disaster
on the evening news
still this could be much worse
we still got our health
and my paycheck in the mail

I promised to my wife and children
I'd never touch another drink as long as I live
but even then, it sounds so soothing
this will blow over in time

well I'm just an honest man
provide for me and mine
I give a check to tax deductible charity organizations
two weeks paid vacation
wont heal the damage done, I need another one

still this could be much worse
natural disaster
on the evening news
still this could be much worse
we still got our health
and my paycheck in the mail


I promised to my wife and children
I'd never touch another drink as long as I live
but even then, it sounds so soothing
to mix a gin, and sink into oblivion
I promised to my wife and children
that accident left everyone a little shookup
but at the meetings I felt so empty
this will blow over in time.
