going to the nation capital
fighting the urge to cry
sometimes i'm almost unbearable
fighting the urge to lie
this city's an original
some might leave in a heartbeat
some might stay up until three
and the best part is you don't owe me a thing
i think i get it
saving up to buy you a sentinel
someone to keep an eye
on you when i'm on the road again
on you that dress looks nice
this city's an original
some might leave in a heartbeat
some might stay up until three
and the best part is you don't owe me a thing

never had a doubt when i brought you to my friend's house
made impressions in the couch but i don't think of you much
and you grabbed my cold hands
the first of our plans felt so right
we talked all night
if you need some motivation i'll be in touch
you have always been my crush, though i don't see you much
first intervention he summoned us to remind us that we're dust
if i could see you now
i would simmer down
say my stuff out loud
wait my turn to laugh
you grabbed my cold hands
the first of our plans felt so right
we talked all night

Pressure's Off

pressure's off
the dogs have all finished barking
they know what temporary art means
i'm still up for being proven wrong
swan song
say goodbye to your sex drive
say hello to the next slide
i'm still up for being taken home
fourth quarter i know
fourth quarter i've been there

try having one less drink tonight
my mother's friend was right
it don't take much to impress you
it don't take much to impress you
have one less drink tonight
not everyone is a right fit
the home crowd's on their feet
for my baby girl, not me

Out One Night
01:04

song about a girl you've never met
is that hopeful?
sing for the faces you forget
are you faithful?
out one night found a package to the right of the river
out one night found a package to the right
does it say much?
does it rub you in the right way?
stay sappy
he won't even try/make the effort
la la la la la la la
all of these words sound good
out one night found a package to the right of a mountain
out one night found a package to the right
does it say much?
does it rub you in the right way?

Shot In The Dark

and if it's sunny by the side of the road
i'll change right out of my clothes
i didn't wanna want you
i guess this came back to haunt you...
a shot in the dark
a life unknown
i see you in the garden
your dad's not home
i race for the prize but the prize keeps changing
i look in your eyes
and if it's sunny by the side of the road
i'll change right out of my clothes
i didn't wanna want you
i guess this came back to haunt you...

i know you
i could have let you go
it's like a dream where i never wake up

White River

we found where the white river flows
and it wasn't perfect
but it was somehow worth it
there's blood on these tracks you know
but the people keep working
then they tilt their heads and pray
"i just wanted to say i'm sorry"
we found a little trailer home
and it wasn't perfect
but it was somehow worth it
there are things that you would like to know
like do i get nervous?
and does it get cold outside...
is it getting cold outside as the north wind comes alive?
we found where the white river flows
and it wasn't perfect
but it was somehow worth it
i just wanna stay in your arms
til you're gone.
