My paper heart has been torn apart Ain't it obvious ain't it obvious It's not the town were from Or the road were on Ain't it obvious ain't it obvious Just look around you everything will find you You've been smelling blood since I woke up Ain't it obvious ain't it obvious Fission has one lonely thought Ain't it obvious ain't it obvious Just look around you everything will find you

Caladiums 03:01
The river rose and your eyes flickered The farm house was empty So it could finally breathe And all that was left was Scattered pictures and memories And I surely remember how I felt When the rain came down on me All I could think of was you But all I could care for was me Caladiums soon will be in bloom Once the river reaches the bank All I could think of was you But all I could care for was me All I could think of was you And the rain came down on me All I could think of was you But all I could care for was me Caladiums soon will be in bloom Once the river reaches the bank

City Lights 02:23
And I know that you know That it could go a lot better And I know that I need A different way to talk to you You're like the city lights Just like the city lights And there are these things inside That do not comfort me They toss and they turns All throughout the night But when you're twenty five And you can't decide Your like the city lights Just like the city lights Yeah I'll go away Yeah I'll go away Just go away But when you're twenty five And you can't decide You're like the city lights Just like the city lights You're like the city lights Just like the city lights Just like the light

Disingenuous 03:43
When its all falling around in front of you Believe me you won't know what to do Stars stare stratus lattice crane canyon skies Is all I see when I see your smile When its all falling around in front of you Believe me you won't know what to do Well I can't believe it hasn't happened yet Well how many chances are we gonna get I can't believe it hasn't happened yet Well how many chances are we gonna get Your disingenuous Rather promiscuous eyes They tell me what your after Your desires and your treasures They tell me things I can't accept If devotions a mother lets name her regret Well I can't believe it hasn't happened yet Well how many chances am I gonna get I can't believe it hasn't happened yet Well how many chances am I gonna get Your disingenuous Rather promiscuous eyes When its all falling around in front of you Believe me you won't know what to do When its all falling around in front of you

Gwyneth 04:13
And I've been gone most of the time And you keep waiting for my return And Gwyn don't cry I'll be home Just in time before your grown Gwyneth don't mind shes alone all the time She's mesmerized how the stars intertwine And I know life's always changing Just so you know you're never alone No you're never alone To tell the truth I feel more Like a stranger every time that I come home Cause I get lost deep in thought As I cross these currents to your heart Gwyneth don't mind shes alone all the time She's mesmerized how the stars intertwine And I know life's always changing Just so you know you're never alone No you're never alone Cause I get lost deep in thought As I cross these currents to your heart

Lake Effect 05:15
I was born at the bottom of a dried up mining town Pain and sorrow still it lingers to all those left around Now a man can easily get so lost out here Lake effect has got me thinking What am I doing here Your an open book that reads pay close attention to me If I've ever been myself last night wasn't it Oh the rain keeps falling at my feet And the wind blows me away From the people I need And its just another day Just another day out in the rain And the wind blows me away from the people I need Especially, especially I was under the gun I went out on the run To the ship yards lay at sea up north refineries Now a man can easily get so lost out here Lake effect has got me thinking What am I doing here Your an open book that reads pay close attention to me If I've ever been myself last night wasn't it Oh the rain keeps falling at my feet And the wind blows me away From the people I need And its just another day Just another day out in the rain And the wind blows me away from the people I need Especially, especially And its just another day Just another day out in the rain And the wind blows me away from the people I need Especially, especially

Marigolds 01:59
I will sing you like a song Until my voice breaks Held you like a marigold Took all I could take Such a long time ago Such a long time ago Yeah maybe I lost my mind I'm just trying to find you Yeah maybe I lost control That was never the issue Such a long time ago Such a long time ago Such a long I will sing you like a song Until my voice breaks Held you like a marigold Took all I could take

I can still see your ghost It walks with me at night I got these demons inside They come out at night You look at me just like you know And take it all down the road Just leave a note before you go Just leave a note before you go Cause I can't get you out of my head My head and get you My head and get you The sun is up and I've had enough Just leave note before you go Just leave note before you go Cause I can't get you out of my head My head and get you My head and get you I can still see your ghost It walks with me at night I got these demons inside They come out at night

Take Aim 02:59
If I could fight off all of my demons That Jesus had invented Would it have been the same To all of those who stood before me To all of those who warned me Would of it ended the same So I take aim on everyone Yeah I take aim on everyone And everything And you substitute emotion Your convoluted notions Isn't it all the same And I've been waiting here to tell you Been waiting here to tell you Would of it ended the same So I take aim on everyone Yeah I take aim on everyone And everything So I take aim on everyone So I take aim on everyone And everything And I've been waiting here to tell you Been waiting here to tell you Would of it ended the same Would of it ended the same

This town and country air is killing me This place carries a curse she takes more than shes worth This is how the story ends This is how we got lost Searching for treasure no matter the cost No matter the cost This town and country air is fitting me You know everywhere I go I run to your shadows Maybe one day you'll understand This town and country This is how the story ends This is how we got lost Searching for treasure no matter the cost No matter the cost This town This town This town This town and country

Fire 03:49
Your conviction is full of disdain I've got some things that I can not tell anyone I've got some things I can not say There's a fire tonight inside of my chest It won't go away It will not go away My restless heart'd mind Is awake in the day Is awake at night There's a fire tonight inside of my chest It will not go away It will not go away No matter how hard I try I'm all coming up short It will not go away it will not go away

Andrew Ryan St. Louis, Missouri
