- "Wearing our vintage misery; no, I think it looked a little better on me."
- "If touching love is touching god, no wonder i'm in heaven when i'm holding you."
- "I wonder about your wonders."
- "It was the Fourth of July, you and I were fireworks that went off too soon. And I miss you in the June gloom, too."
- "Do you remember the way I held your hand under the lamp post and ran home? This way so many times I could close my eyes."
- "Oh, I'm sorry, I didn't mean any of it. I just got too lonely. In between being young and being right, you were my Versailles at night."
- "This is side one. Flip me over, I know I’m not your favorite record."
- "And I’m a sunshine machine, I want to get stuck. I want to get stuck, and be golden in your memory."
- "I’m coming apart at the seams, pitching myself for leads in other people’s dreams."
- "Sometimes the only payoff for having any faith is when it’s tested again and again everyday."
- "You were the song stuck in my head, every song that I've ever loved."
- "Spent most of last night dragging this lake for the corpses of all my past mistakes."
- "Sometimes we take chances, sometimes we take pills. I could write it better than you ever felt it."
- "If heaven's grief brings hell's rain, then I'd trade all my tomorrows for just one yesterday."
- "I’m just a problem that doesn't want to be solved, so could you please hold your applause?"
- "I hate the way you say my name like it’s something secret. My pen is the barrel of the gun, remind me which side you should be on."
- "Sometimes I wanna quit this all and become an accountant now. But I’m no good at math and besides, the dollar is down."
- "I found the cure to growing older, and you're the only place that feels like home."
- "Anything you say can and will be held against you, so only say my name."
- "How'd it get to be only me? Like I'm the last damn kid still kicking that still believes."
- "All the boys who the dance floor didn't love, and all the girls whose lips couldn't move fast enough: sing, until your lungs give out."
- "You know time crawls on when you’re waiting for the song to start, so dance alone to the beat of your heart."
- "I'm either gone in an instant or here 'til the bitter end. I never know."
- "I'm the invisible man who can't stop staring at the mirror."
- "You are my favorite what if, you are my best I'll never know."
- "And I knew that the lights of the city were too heavy for me, though I carried carats for everyone to see."
- "I saw God cry in the reflection of my enemies and all the lovers with no time for me."
- "To the love, I left my conscience pressed between the pages of a bible in the drawer. "What did it ever do for me?" I say, it never calls me when I'm down.'
- "Love never wanted me, but I took it anyway. Put your ear to the speaker and choose love or sympathy, but never both. Love never wanted me."
- "Come on, let's sleep in my bed. Can I just be in my head with you?"
- "I over-communicate and feel too much, I just complicate it when I say too much. I laugh about it, dream about that casual touch."
- "Did you take him to the pier in Santa Monica? Forget to bring a jacket, wrap up in him cause you wanted to? I'm just curious, is it serious?"
- "At least I got you in my head."
- "I hear you like a whisper in the corner of my lovesick thoughts."
- "Saw your face, heard your name, gotta get with you. Girls like girls like boys do, nothing new."
- "Always gonna steal your thunder, watch me like a dark cloud on the move collecting numbers. I'ma take your girl out, we will be everything that we'd ever need. Don't tell me what I feel. I'm real and I don't feel like boys."
- "So this is where I leave you, sitting in a palace covered in gold inside my head."
- "Dance in your color, reflecting in your light. You're my horizon, you'll always paint my sky."
- "I hope you're somewhere prayin’, prayin'. I hope your soul is changin', changin'. I hope you find your peace, falling on your knees, prayin'."
- "I used to live in the darkness, dress in black, act so heartless, but now I see that colors are everything."
- "Got kaleidoscopes in my hairdo, got back the stars in my eyes, too. Yeah, now I see the magic inside of me."
- "Yeah, maybe my head's fucked up, but I'm falling right back in love with being alive."
- "Dreaming in light, light, lights."
- "Don't buy me a drink, I make my money. Don't touch my weave, don't call me "honey"."
- "I love you when you're singing that song and I got a lump in my throat cause you're gonna sing the words wrong."
- "I was scared of dentists and the dark, I was scared of pretty girls and starting conversations. Oh, all my friends are turning green. You're the magician's assistant in their dreams."
- "So far away, but still so near. The lights come on, the music dies, but you don't see me standing here. I just came to say goodbye."
- "I'll tell you my sins and you can sharpen your knife."
- "See, you told me that I would find a hole within the fragile substance of my soul, and I have filled this void with things unreal, and all the while my character it steals."
- "It seems that all my bridges have been burned, but you say that's exactly how this grace thing works. It's not the long walk home that will change this heart, but the welcome I receive with the restart."
- "There is a design, an alignment, a cry of my heart to see the beauty of love as it was made to be."
- "I never meant you any harm, but your tears feel warm as they fall on my forearm."
- "If only I had an enemy bigger than my apathy I could have won, but I gave you all."
- "Close my eyes for a while, force from the world a patient smile."
- "And death is at your doorstep, and it will steal your innocence, but it will not steal your substance."
- "And I will tell the night, whisper, "Lose your sight", but I can't move the mountains for you."
- "Was it love or fear of the cold that led us through the night? For every kiss your beauty trumped my doubt."
- Get over your hill and see what you find there, with grace in your heart and flowers in your hair."
- "And my ears hear the call of my unborn sons, and I know their choices color all I’ve done. But I’ll explain it all to the watchman’s son, I never lived a year better spent in love."
- "This cup of yours tastes holy, but a brush with the devil can clear your mind, strengthen your spine."
- "I hear stories of your smile, I hear stories of your frown, and the darkness can descend we can relish all the pain."
- "Do not let my fickle flesh go to waste, as it keeps my heart and soul in it's place. And I will love with urgency, but not with haste."
- "In the clearing stands a boxer and a fighter by his trade, and he carries the reminder of every glove that laid him down and cut him till he cried out in his anger and his shame. I am leaving, I am leaving, but the fighter still remains."
- "I know I've tried, I was not stable, flawed by pride. I miss my sanguine eyes, so hold my hands up - breathe in, breathe out."
- "But oh, babe, I really wish you would not cry. I only ever told you one lie when it could have been a thousand. It might as well have been a thousand."
- "If only things were black and white, cause I just want to hold you tight without holding back my mind."
- "So open up my eyes, tell me I'm alive. This is never gonna go our way if I'm gonna have to guess what's on your mind."
- "When I think of you in the city, the sight of you among the sites, I get this sudden sinking feeling of a man about to fly."
- "Never kept me up before, now I’ve been awake for days."
- "Can I stay here? I can sleep, on the floor. Paint the blood and hang the palms, on the door."
- "God loves everybody, don't remind me. I took the medicine, and I went missing. Just let me hear your voice, just let me listen."
- "I figured out how to be faithless, but it would be a shame to waste this. You can't imagine how I hate this. Graceless."
- "Hit my head up on the light. I have faith but don't believe it, it's not there enough to leave it."
