Don't Put Me Down

What are the words I couldn't find?
Maybe you know them better than me
Without air we choked the flame
Swallowing words I'll go the same
Pick me up next weekend
Let's hang out in a record store
And play those songs they play no more
Pick me up, don't put me down today
Don't he do the things I do?
Like compliment and say I love you
And what about that card I wrote
It brought a tear to your throat
Pick me up next weekend
Let's hang out in a record store
And play those songs they play no more
Pick me up, don't put me down today
I've been playing this same old song
I've been waiting so fucking long
Pick me up next weekend
Let's hang out in a record store
And play those songs they play no more
Pick me up, don't put me down today

I Gave Her My Name

Well, I gave her my name
And she said it was the same
As every guy that ever gave her a name
So she gave me her name
And I said it was the same
As every girl that ever gave me a name
So we went to the town, where the lights are down
And everybody was hanging around
I took a pill, and it made me ill
For everybody that ever took a pill
So she gave me her number
And we went undercover
And I told her love was unlike any other
So I gave her my number
And we went undercover
And she told me my love was unlike any other
So we went to the town, where the lights are down
And everybody was hanging around
I walked a line, and wound up doing time
For everybody that ever walked a line

Bedroom of Ashes

Sitting alone in my bedroom of ashes
My anger slowly fades
A breeze from the window attacks where the past is
The light gives in to shade today
I feel like running away
If you remember my 5th of November
I'll remember yours
Pick up the pieces of glass from the embers
The loss we can't afford
I feel like running away
Sitting alone in my bedroom of ashes
My anger slowly fades
A breeze from the window attacks where the past is
The past has nothing to say anyway
I feel like running away

Sometimes you want to be there just for yourself
And I know you're tired of pleasing somebody else
When the sun comes shining through on the shelf
The dawn breaks the life you led in the dream
Leave the guilt for someone else who deserves the fall
Burn the book and rewrite it all
Sometimes you want to be there just for yourself
The ashtray is full of dust from the past
Remember the hopes you had in your teens
When you're not falling apart at the seams

Wrapped Up in Ribbons
03:04

She gets drunk and she can't talk
She wears heels and she can't walk
She's got a laugh we hide behind
She's like stepping on a landmine
But she glides with a rhythm
Wrapped up in ribbons
She sees things that we can't see
She'd find better men than me
But as we dance in a silhouette
She ain't found a better man yet
And she glides with a rhythm
Wrapped up in ribbons
As she glides her way to the organ tune
A silk embrace underneath the moon
A dance with death and I think I've fallen for her
As if she'd fall for a devil like me
Out of the sky from those ribbons be free
But if she did, I'd be there waiting for her
Now she's the queen of the big show
And she smiles with a faint glow
She got tequila in her grenadine
And a double shot of rhythmeen
And she glides with a rhythm
And she's prone to indecision
And you'll find her lately
Just gliding with a rhythm
Wrapped up in ribbons
