all the keys and all the phones all the houses we got high in picking through the gold or anything that was shining all the running on the wheel all the devils stealing treasure from our souls i just let it roll in and out of my life i let go of the controls like a tumbling dice all the places that we've been and the places we ain’t going now keep flickering and burning out in the corner of my eye all i can do is ride all the things that we have seen on our way to knowing we’ll always be between the getting there and the going all the running on the wheel all the devils stealing treasure from our souls i just let it roll in and out of my life I let go of the controls like a tumbling dice we’re all tumbling dice we’re all tumbling dice.

it comes in streams i’m moving away from you now these heavy dreams are keeping you close to me somehow it never leaves just lets me go then drags me back to your shining eyes your shining eyes so deep and black the time i spent trying to stare down the abyss if you look long enough things are gonna shake and gonna shift your shining eyes your shining eyes so deep and black that’s where I ride and I know that you ain’t coming back the songs that we wrote with our lives and with our pens they’re all we’ll ever have and I can only fall back on my friends maybe that’s enough just to have had that dance with you to mark it out it’s funny all our songs are coming true your shining eyes your shining eyes so deep and black that’s where I ride and I know that you ain’t coming back it comes in streams i’m moving away from you now these heavy dreams they’re keeping you close to me somehow it never leaves just lets me go then drags me back to your shining eyes your shining eyes so deep and black and I know that you ain’t coming back

run your boots to the grave when you gonna settle down say you ain’t no slave when you gonna settle down life’s too short to stay in one place anyway run your boots to the grave find your place in the sun when you gonna settle down just run baby run when you gonna settle down life’s too short to stay in one place anyway run your boots to the grave keeping it all in place walking on the lines between the spaces run your boots to the grave when you gonna settle down say you ain’t no slave when you gonna settle down life’s too short to stay in one place anyway run your boots to the grave...

we were down the south coast barely holding on something in your eyes had died and you’d already gone I’m looking at the ocean out at all that shifting sand you were looking out the window hiding something in your hand well you can fight the light or you can make it stay she said you’re just looking at it all the wrong way there's nothing left to ponder here and nothing left to lose so here’s your keys get off your knees and don’t forget your shoes and I don’t like it anymore than you do but you hid it under every note in every line of every verse of every song you ever wrote you can choose to lose it ain’t all in the dice careful what you think, you know your thoughts can run your life we always had it comin’ i just learned the dance so well so here’s your keys get off your knees and don’t pretend that you couldn’t tell and I don’t like it anymore than you do but you hid it under every note in every line of every verse of every song you ever wrote you can fight the light or you can make it stay she said you’re just looking at it all the wrong way.

say everybody gets you wrong but maybe you’re just burned out been doin’ it too long maybe you’re just burned out you say everybody’s blind but no one’s even looking at you everybody’s eyes are fine you’re just so easy to see through and you’ll ride it till it’s broken keep it going till it’s dead on the vine keep on kickin’ till you’ve busted it open everything is just a matter of time came on like a sunrise i’m goin’ back to my home town riding out with clear eyes into the light of the open ground the horizon is a goldmine i’m diggin’ it on my own out beyond the tree line over the ocean like a stone and you’ll ride it till it’s broken keep it going till it’s dead on the vine some doors they won’t ever reopen everything is just a matter of time yeah you’ll ride it till it’s broken keep it going till it's dead on the vine keep on kickin’ till you’ve busted it open and everything is just a matter of time.

paper boat 03:36
paper boat out on the sea in the center of my telescope i always had one eye on you you know I always held out hope that you were gonna be alright that you were gonna be just fine i could never turn you 'round or carry you into the shoreline we were broken when we came together bound for nothing but change but you never did recover from it you just dropped right outta range thought you were gonna be alright that you were gonna be just fine but I could never turn you 'round or carry you into the shoreline and you say there’s nothing left to try all you ever wanna do is stay high i’m always gonna worry for you some love you can’t explain cuts as deep as true love do it's a similar kind of pain we can never know what time will bring we can never break the chain but what I’d give to shake the state you’re in what I’d give to get you out of the rain you say there’s nothing left to try yeah you say that all the time so i hope you find your way back home i hope that you can do it on your own paper boat out on the sea in the center of a hurricane if you know anything its how to hang on so look at me and tell me again that you are gonna be alright that you are gonna be just fine coz I could never turn you round or carry you into the shoreline.

flesh and blood seems it don’t mean much always had what we needed what we had was never enough say it’s not my place to lay this down but you know you got it comin’ mama its comin’ around i’m always the water you’re always the stone i can never catch you when you’re fallin’ to the bottom you’ll be goin’ alone you could never meet me on my time too busy tryin’ to turn all your demons into mine time goes fast i ain’t too young to know but i’m tied to you mama i'll take you everywhere I go you know i’m tied to you mama i’ll take you everywhere I go but you could never meet me on my time too busy tryin’ to turn all your demons into mine when my anchor’s up and my sails are down when i’m three sheets to the wind and i’m old enough to leave this town you’re my flesh and blood heart and bones you know I’m tied to you mama i’ll take you everywhere i go but you could never meet me on my time too busy tryin’ to turn all your demons into mine you could never meet me on my time too busy tryin’ to turn all your demons into mine when you let me go mama you’ll be fine.

times when I catch myself and i see what i’ve become it’s like i’m looking at somebody else doing things that can’t be undone if I could take it all back i would i know time don’t move like that if i could take it all back I would honey i’d take it all back we used to be something bigger than life could ever pin down turned into which kitty'll get the cream and make it outta this town first if i could take it all back i would i know time don’t move like that if I could take it all back i would honey i’d take it all back if i could take it all back i would i know time don’t move like that if i could take it and make it good honey i’d take it all back now i’m moving in reverse i’m out on the frozen ground i knew this was gonna hurt i knew this was coming ‘round now i’m moving in reverse i’m out on the frozen ground i knew this was gonna hurt i knew this was coming down I knew this was coming ‘round I knew this was coming down times when I catch myself and i see what i’ve become like I was looking at somebody else doing things that could not be undone if i could take it all back i would i know time don’t move like that if i could take it and make it good honey i’d take it all back if i could take it all back i would i know time don’t move like that if i could take it and make it good honey i’d take it all back
