1.
I have a first name I never use It only brings me blues Duct tape on the engine, rubber bands on my shoes To get out just for now either one will do I’ve got something to lose, something to leave behind Just a tap on the window to let you know I’m awake Even though I’ve been gone for days and days At any minute, at any stakes, I wouldn’t bother to wait I would bust down the pearly gates I’ve got something to lose, something to leave behind
2.
Right into the start, you’re willing and able You look just like a safe bet to me Eagerness in your eyes, as your hands rest in pockets You’re standing like you’re something to be Thrown right in, thrown right in How do I save all that I’ve come to know? How do I stray from the places that I have grown? Where I am going will too soon be where I’ve been Thrown right in, thrown right in Standing at your side, I’m nervously noticing Something is telling me to lie I know all I am is what I bring to the table But here you can’t see what was mine Thrown right in, thrown right in How do I save all that I’ve come to know? How do I stray from the places that I have grown? Where I am going will too soon be where I’ve been Thrown right in, thrown right in

Tijuana 03:45
Come on brothers, come one come all It’s a one time showing of human principle She holds her hand out in front of her As her brother juggles on her shoulders As he fumbles the balls fall from his hand She gives them back without a glance and they resume again On the billboard, the lawyers of tomorrow You’re at the border Tijuana, Tijuana You have never done this before The word cul de sac gives you a cold sore Something scared you to have some change to spare Perhaps the scent of painted flowers in the air Gave her money, told her save it for tomorrow You’ll roll up your window Tijuana, Tijuana
4.
Time Capsule 03:53
She says there’s nothing quite as beautiful As the ending of a song And if nature is objects at rest Then we’re doing it wrong Got a car with a nervous blinker Afraid of that turning lane And I just might forget a name Slide a picture of you in my time capsule To leave behind when I go Slide a picture of you in my time capsule To dig on up someday when I’m old He said he’ll never trust in words They change from every point of view And if we control our bodies How do the radio waves get through Sometimes he goes door to door With a clipboard and a uniform change But he’s not after your business He just likes writing down names Slide a picture of you in my time capsule To leave behind when I go Slide a picture of you in my time capsule To dig on up someday when I’m old Well the winds change, blow us away And I doubt we will speak or call But up from, the hallowed ground You will sprout and grow From my time capsule
5.
Layer Up 06:46
You’d like it a whole lot better Wrapped up in a cashmere sweater It’s how we survive the weather here Pretty soon I fear, it’ll get the best of us It’s a hell of a storm that we’re in The sky curled up like a serpent Noses still burn like turpentine Given enough time, we’ll make the most of it Layer up And lay low Layer up And lay low The icicles shake and shiver Breath trembles on frozen rivers Still silent and cracked like leather oh’ All under miles of snow Layer up And lay low Layer up And lay low Wind opens up your door Invites the others in I hope you’re keeping warm That sweater’s looking thin Layer up And lay low Layer up And lay low
