Ordinary 04:15
Everybody’s in the park for fun Everybody is dancing in the sun Nobody feels they’re ordinary Look through the window and you’ll see the clouds See the stars and begin to wonder how Anybody thinks they’re ordinary You think you’re ordinary Just a spot in the sun But when you look in my eyes You’re the only one Cause you You have the most lovely stare And you seem happy in the dream you’re in Holding poppies, stare into oblivion No one like you is ordinary So kiss me when we’re riding bikes tonight We can do it if we give it our best try This whole life’s extraordinary You turn my world inside out You break the heart of stone Cause you got that something That’s all your own And you You have the most lovely stare And when I look in your eyes I feel home Yeah you Yeah and I feel home

I turned off the car and I locked up all the doors and then I tucked my shirt in - don't know what for. Then I sat in a room where the ceiling was off-white. How did I let this become the sky? I sat on my bed and I looked at my guitar and said 'man these work days are tearing us apart.' I turned on my TV and they were talking about the war and how it would kill me, but not what for. But they were sure. I woke up the next day, and said 'I'm not doing this again,' then went to the office and filled them in. My boss, she looked at me and said 'that guitar won't pay the bills, it won't make you happy like money will.' I said, 'I disagree, go take all your favorite songs - but you can't just listen, you gotta sing along. You'll see your wrong. You gotta know what for, Or walk out the door. Once you got that urge to leave, man it's useless to ignore. If something kills you, you better know what for. Or walk out the door. "X-Ray Machine" Tell me what else is new - you're an x-ray machine and the grass is green and at night you can see the moon. I left some words for you. You gave them all the care of a grizzly bear and I'm sending you to the zoo. Tonight, Tonight, Tonight, Tonight... Show your insides. What's in the light is not enough x2

Hold me while you feel it Cause you’ll forget it when I’m away I can barely see it But I’m looking anyways Flying high as a kite in the midnight hour Scraping up my knees for whiskey I move on, yeah and I feel right as rain Far from home, yeah and no one knows my name And I feel like I’m lost in nowhere Feel like, I’m finally free So light up the stage above me Let me show you what I got Well this world can make you crazy When you don’t know what you’re not Driving all through the night for a place to sleep Just to make some noise in this God damn city I move on, yeah and I feel right as rain Far from home, yeah and no one knows my name And I feel like I’m lost in nowhere Feel like, I’m finally free So I’ll learn how to crawl So I can learn how to walk And I’ll climb up this hill So I can stand at the top I’ll walk another mile To get some dirt in my veins Cause it’s impossible to change When everything around you stays the same So hold me while you feel it Cause you’ll forget it when I’m away I move on, yeah and I feel right as rain Far from home, yeah and no one knows my name And I feel like I’m lost in nowhere Feel like, I’m finally free Yeah I’m finally free…

I’ll never say goodbye To what I left behind I want more than I need 23 wishing I was 17 and I’ll never lose my mind cause I never found it it’s out where forever ends El Salvador where the answer is in the wind And maybe I like it, When I start what I can’t even begin When it gets sunny in the dark I’ll ask myself Who am I? I don’t know If we’re made to save the world Make the internet work hard for you Play with real electric girls Get your kicks on the highway built for two If time is on our side Why does it keep us from staying alive? Make children into men? Make reverie into stand up citizens? And maybe I like it, When I start what I can’t even begin When it gets sunny in the dark I’ll ask myself Who am I? Who cares? If it takes you cocaine To find the holy in everything Or a badge on your sleeve To be all, all that you can be And maybe I like it, When I start what I can’t even begin When it gets sunny in the dark I’ll ask myself Who am I?

Clean Bones 05:04
Take me to the river on the mountain Clean my bones Wash me with the soft hands of the angels Make me whole We’re dying for salvation On our knees for brave new skin In a dream I saw your face Stretched out on the landscape You held my hand and sighed We all die, but some stay alive So hold me deep in your arms The night is coming to shine its light on me And carry me to the river Until the heavens are all I see In a dream I saw your face Stretched out on the landscape You held my hand and sighed We all die, but some stay alive I’m alive So take me to the river…
