Picture In My Head
03:12

Pull the car to the side of the road
You know I can drive, we'll be just fine
You pick the time you draw the line
The fight is yours but feels like mine
It's not a rare scenario for you
You've been there before, still don't know what to do
I suffer the barbs is what I do
I did my part, I'm still gonna lose
Do you still feel like you're a rental
I got a picture of it in my head
And it's all I see any longer
I got a picture of it in my head
And I can't get rid of it
Come along with you, hit the roof
See me looking like a cigarette
You're right, it might take time
Do you still kind of need someone to be there
Do you feel, like a regular fool
Do you ponder at it too, with a little attitude
You really think I'm still the fool
Pours salt into my open wounds
Do you still feel like you're a rental
I got a picture of it in my head
And it's all I see any longer
I got a picture of it in my head
And I can't get rid of it

Jealous of the Bottle
03:26
|

I sat her down on Saturday and tried to explain
Why on Friday night I fried my brain
How I was thirsty on Thursday,
Though she witnessed things on Wednesday
That she'd rather never see me do again
It's true enough that Tuesday has always been my booze day
And Monday's hard to make it through sober
But I'll buy the day's first round
As the evening sun goes down
Guess I'm spending Sunday evening without her
Yeah, she's jealous of the bottle, it sure has that allure
And I seem to spend more time with it than her
I drink a bottle, I get full, then she gets fed up
And we both become a different shade of green
Yeah, she's jealous of the bottle when I come home late
She knows just where I've been
To feel the contour of the bottle or the curve of her hips
You think I'd stick with her and that'd be it
But I hear her frequent holler
When the scent upon my collar
Gives away what's been pressed up against my lips
I know it isn't fair for me to keep up this affair
When I see how much she cares for me, despite
How after every tender kiss
I drink down her nemesis
And I'll meet up with that mistress again tonight

Each and Every Night
04:38
|
|||
I have said so many things I regret
I have done so much more than damage
I know that so much time has passed
Each day goes so much faster than the last
We don't have time to hold back
But what I wouldn't give for one more chance
To be all that you want so you could have
The life that you want and you'd still kiss me goodnight
Each and every night
I have said so often that I care
I held on so tight when you were not there
I know that many tears have fallen
It never seemed to help to keep recallin'
How could you want to hold back

Aurora
03:15

There's a blizzard on the road to Aurora
And the snow and ice, they make for rough terrain
it's a blinding winding way there, to be sure
And I won't care if I don't come back here again
There's a big dog that barks, he don't like me
And his eyes follow me every step I take
Man, I wish I could get me some whiskey
Or something strong enough to help dull this ache
Aurora, Aurora
Aurora, why d'you do me like you do
Aurora, Aurora
If I don't make it home alive, I'll place the blame on you
Well, it's true I'd rather stay here in the city
And sit and think about what moves to make
But I'm moved to make the trip out to Aurora
And find out for myself if it's a mistake
Aurora, Aurora
Aurora, you're no friend of mine
Aurora, Aurora
If I don't see your face again, I think I'll be just fine
I know I'll be just fine

Bathroom Floors
03:12
|

Back before the time
That we laughed at what we used to cry about
Then, there was never any need
I know what you believe and I know that you burned it into me
Remember how you used to say that you would never give up
But you don't say that anymore
When you're on your knees on another bathroom floor
You don't say that anymore
No, you've given up, you can't fake it anymore
Bent under the sun
Sweat stings your baby blues, dirt underneath your fingernails
Then, there was no talk of comprise
And no need to apologize
Yeah, you know that I can sympathize
Remember how you used to say that you would never give up
But you don't say that anymore
When you're on your knees on another bathroom floor
You don't say that anymore
No, you've given up, you can't fake it anymore
Aren't you tired of waitin'
All you got is anticipation

The End of the Tunnel
01:28

At the end of the tunnel, there's a light
I can see that everything will be alright
Just walk through the darkness a little bit longer
The farther you go, the light will get stronger
So shine it on, shine it on
Shine it on, shine it on
(Ooooo)
And the light at the end of the tunnel will shine on you
Yeah, the light at the end of the tunnel will shine on you
