Canyon Song 02:24
Deep in the canyon I heard a silence so true It soothed an aching so old it almost felt new I'm for the taking I am for the borrower in blue Among the shadows I see the fears of my life That I'm not good enough, that I'm not strong enough to fight Though my head is heavy I am fundamentally light Though my arms are shaking I feel as if I was meant for flight Oh can your heart beat faster...

Midnight 04:16
Picket fences, sun-kissed faces, lemonade Poured over ice in the summertime Hardly watching TV your hands crept up to mine I thought we might happen sometime And your sunlight washes away All the stains on my skin that he made At midnight Timing waited, haunted me down into the catacombs You held my hand through the telephone Anesthesia took its toll, oh I am paralyzed I stood more still than I realized And your sunlight washes away All the stains on my skin that he made At midnight This gaze that I hold is bringing me down Your blood runs cold, chills me to the bone Until I'm gone Twisted cravings eat away at my heart tonight Waiting for him to fall out of mind, out of mind, out of sight Then your sunlight washes away All the stains on my skin that he made At midnight At midnight

Well I met you in the summer on the corner of my street Your hair was shorter back then and you didn't really know me I bet you don't remember but I hopped in the back seat How did I know you? Well we hit some record highs in the summer after high school We were the kings of autumn when the weather got cool I was living on the edge and you were living proof How did I know you? Ooh, you got my love, you got my love come on Ooh, baby don't be shy Ooh, you're good to me, you're good for me, honey Ooh, you stay on my mind We were talking at a party on the night before the new year But we only sent the silhouettes to disappear Do you remember pulling her close and kissing her tears? How do I know you? Ooh, you got my love, you got my love come on Ooh, baby don't be shy Ooh, you're good to me, you're good for me, honey Ooh, you stay on my mind As the story turns out it wasn't you on the corner Yeah I thought that you were beautiful but I never told you In my mind we were both made for each other How did I lose you? Ooh, you got my love, you got my love come on Ooh, baby don't be shy Ooh, you're good to me, you're good for me, honey Ooh, you stay on my mind

One last chance to turn your back on living room romances To shy away from rooftop dances that so effortlessly took over our nights As we shook away the moonlight Thunderstorms sound like someone's heart getting torn down But you see beauty in its purest form now and it makes the rain feel right I keep building up a wall of broken parts You are wielding and ever underblemished heart Ever waiting for the dust to settle down Keep on changing, though I love you now Ephemeral youth makes the broken bones feel like bruises I worry for the day in which the uses of our effervescent minds expire And our innocence retires I am building up a wall of broken parts You are wielding and ever underblemished heart Ever waiting for the dust to settle down Keep on changing, though I love you now I am broken again And you are hunting down the pieces To put me back together in the end... You're my best friend.
