If I could take it all back,
I could make it all right,
You could be the best part of my life.

I’m still looking for the quiet life
but in those shadows it’s trouble I find
I’ve been waiting for all my life
for a drug called peace of mind
And though I feel
It’s never gonna find me
Or catch me falling
And I feel, I feel it will never find me
I’ve got to keep moving
When it’s all apart
Cause I feel it’s never gonna find me
Never gonna find me
…like this
It’s full of cares
You have no time to stand and stare
And though I feel
It’s never gonna find me
Or catch me falling
And I feel, I feel it will never find me
I’ve got to keep moving
When it’s all apart
Cause I feel it’s never gonna find me

Johnny Cash - Hurt
I hurt myself today
To see if I still feel
I focus on the pain
The only thing that’s real
The needle tears a hole
The old familiar sting
Try to kill it all away
But I remember everything
What have I become
My sweetest friend
Everyone I know goes away
In the end
And you could have it all
My empire of dirt
I will let you down
I will make you hurt
I wear this crown of thorns
Upon my liar’s chair
Full of broken thoughts
I cannot repair
Beneath the stains of time
The feelings disappear
You are someone else
I am still right here
What have I become
My sweetest friend
Everyone I know goes away
In the end
And you could have it all
My empire of dirt
I will let you down
I will make you hurt
If I could start again
A million miles away
I would keep myself
I would find a way

The Dangerous Summer - War Paint
I was starting to shake
From the days I’ve been up
There’s a lot on my plate
And the ones I loved stopped answering
They left me to find my self
In my own hate
I work all alone with a cynical taste
And the day I get out
Is the day I’ll be made
I was cut out of stone
And carved with a blade
Head down with all of my hardships
There’s nothing too strong
That I cant face
Don’t stop ‘till you finally have it
It should be more like a habit
Come down,
All the fighting’s over
I let you breathe your own air
I will set my arms down in a corner
When I turn around
You will tell me how you’re up now
From your dream of clovers
Said, “not a thing will compare
To the sense you give me, and disorder
When you turn around
And I can’t breathe”
There wasn’t a trace
Of the war letting up
And the days went on late
I struggled
And I fell to solid ground
It led me to my escape
Now here I am outside of your gate
I was hoping you could
Come down,
All the fighting’s over
I let you breathe your own air
I will set my arms down in a corner
When I turn around
You will tell me how you’re up now
From your dream of clovers
Said, “not a thing will compare
To the sense you give me, and disorder
When you turn around
And I can’t breathe”
Well, I came to say sorry
I shouldn’t have left
But my bitterness got to me
Before you did
And now I’m laying in gardens
Where we start over again
I know that you got me
And this is it
Come down,
All the fighting’s over
I let you breathe your own air
I will set my arms down in a corner
When I turn around
You will tell me how you’re up now
From your dream of clovers
Said, “not a thing will compare
To the sense you give me, and disorder
When you turn around
And I can’t breathe”
The Scene Aesthetic - Humans
Deep, deep inside of your heart
There is a weight that still needs to be lifted
Cover it up, but the pain never stops
Sometimes I wish that you’d just listen
Deep, deep inside of yourself
There is a soul starving for some affection
Been waiting for years and the time passes by
All you ever wanted was to fit in
So I wrote you this song
I hope that you like it
Cause you light up my life
And I know you can fight this
You’re the most beautiful girl in the world
And I wanted you to know
Constantly waiting for life
To start or for love to surround it
If you only looked right by your side
You’d find that it never had left you
You’ve lived through so much and seen so many things
Through your eyes and I wish you could just see
If it were up to me I would construct a key to your heart
And find love and set you free
So I wrote you this song
I hope that you like it
‘Cause you light up my life
And I know you can fight this
You’re the most beautiful girl in the world
And I wanted you to know
You can call me
You’ve got no reason to hide
You’re so lovely
Built with a beautiful mind
When in time will come (you can call me)
And you will realize just how special you are (you’ve got no reason to hide)
There’s not enough hate in the world (you’re so lovely)
To bring you down (built with a beautiful mind)
Built with a beautiful mind (built with a beautiful mind)
So I wrote you this song
I hope that you like it
‘Cause you light up my life
And I know you can fight this
You’re the most beautiful girl in the world
And I wanted you to know

Copeland - On The Safest Ledge
Don’t look ahead, just run to me
Each step will find the next one recklessly
We’ll find ourselves on the safest ledge
Well pardon me, I couldn’t help myself
Girl, fall into your life here
If only for a while, I’m here
Could you be happy to fall like a stone
If you’d land right here safe in my arms?
It’s fine, lock all your doors through the night
Keep it all right here, safe in my arms
It’s fine, it’s fine
You felt alone before you ever really knew how alone you were
An empty house, a lonely room
The TV talks the fear right out of you
But you feel like someone’s standing by but you’ll never know
Could you be happy to fall like a stone
If you’d land right here safe in my arms?
It’s fine, lock all your doors through the night
Keep it all right here, safe in my arms
It’s fine
The sun burns a hole straight through your old flaws
If you look toward the sky even on your greyest night
Could you be happy now, with the wind in your hair
And your eyes open wide and your feet going nowhere?
Could you be happy to fall like a stone
If you’d land right here safe in my arms?
It’s fine, lock all your doors through the night
Keep it all right here, safe in my arms
It’s fine

Copeland - The Day I Lose My Voice (The Suitcase Song)
It’s sure as the floor ‘neath my toes
And somehow not surprised
That I was superimposed, somehow in this life
And if my friends and my foes would just drop me a line, it’d be nice.
You see love is a drink that goes straight to my head
and time is a lover and I’m caught in her stare
And the sentiment there follows me straight to my bed through the night
I’ve got my life in a suitcase,
I’m ready to run, run, run away..
I’ve got no time, ‘cause I’m always trying to run, run, run away
‘Cause everyday in here feels like it’s only a game.
I’ve got my life in a suitcase, a suitcase, a suitcase
What could be an anchor here, with a storm on the rise,
When you never meant to see so clear, when smoke gets in your eyes
And the men in the moon never makes his replies
Understood
I’ve got my life in a suitcase,
I’m ready to run, run, run away..
I’ve got no time, ‘cause I’m always trying to run, run, run away
‘Cause everyday in here feels like it’s only a game.
I’ve got my life in a suitcase, a suitcase, a suitcase
For a moment I was one man and the world made sense
For a moment in this storm made of consequence
I’ve got my life in a suitcase and ready to run run run away
I got no time cause I’m always trying to run run run away
Cause everyday when it feels like it’s only a game I’ve got my life in a suitcase, a suitcase, a suitcase
A suitcase

Mae - Brink of Disaster
Light starts in a dark place
The story of a car chase
And I’ve become the criminal
fleeing from the scene and being caught in a bad dream
The truth becomes the unthinkable
I’m on the brink of disaster
Staring down the consequences
To brake hard would be better
Tonight I’ll do what it takes to fail
Going there only faster
Jump the gun and throw it into gear
But the fact of that matter,
I’m out of control, asleep at the wheel
Asleep at the wheel
I’m out of control, asleep at the wheel
Night falls with no grace
I said I can do anything
But I can do anything wrong
And with burning speed the rearview says to me it’s catching up to me
But I’m already gone
I’m on the brink of disaster
Staring down the consequences
To brake hard would be better
Tonight I’ll do what it takes to fail
Going there only faster
Jump the gun and throw it into gear
But the fact of the matter,
I’m out of control, asleep at the wheel
Asleep at the wheel
Tearing it down to open up the highway
We’re looking for an exit, no pretending
Speeding down and around with a sobering smash starting at a car crash
Oh, the chase is ending
I’m on the brink of disaster
Staring down the consequences
To brake hard would be better
Tonight I’ll do what it takes to fail
Going there only faster
Jump the gun and throw it into gear
But the fact of the matter the end is coming
I’m on the brink of disaster
Staring down the consequences
To brake hard would be better
I’m out of control, asleep at the wheel
Asleep at the wheel
Asleep at the wheel
Asleep at the wheel
I’m out of control, asleep at the wheel
Mae - Tisbury Lane
She greets the day with her hair wet
She asks them to vacate the building
Because she’s got a plan they don’t know yet
And if it goes wrong, there’ll be no one to see
If she could just get the word out
God knows she’s trying
They’re watching her with eyes closed
She’s always stuck with the old route
Does anyone knock when they barge in to beat her down?
Will you come back?
It’s all she wants to know
She knows she’s part of the problem too
Could she let it go?
It’d take a miracle
So that’s what I’m praying for
No one can know just how she feels
She won’t use the phone, she’s too tired to pick it up
She’s going back to the old way
She sits in the classroom to learn with the others
Please don’t give up when it’s easy
Don’t you know that me and Jesus will cheer you on?
He’s the only one that will be constantly everything you need
Will you come back?
It’s all she wants to know
She knows she’s part of the problem too
Could she let it go?
It’d take a miracle
So that’s what I’m praying for
Yeah
She lives on Tisbury Lane
Amely - Christmas Time Again
It’s Christmas time again
Without you here
Where have you been
Another lonely year
I can’t forget
Remember when
It’s Christmas time again
I hear your voice
I feel your heart
And though you’re miles away
It seems as though we never had to part
If I pretend you never left
It’s Christmas time again
I’ll put the tree up on my own
Let it glow
Hang these ornaments alone
Even though
You’re not here with me
I feel you so
Don’t forget
It’s Christmas time again
It’s Christmas time again
Under the tree
Wrapped presents with your name
On the marquee
A thousand miles away
These Christmas lights
Will help you find your way
Cold winter nights
Well it’s Christmas time again
Christmas time again
I’ll put the tree up on my own
Let it glow
Hang these ornaments alone
Even though
You’re not here with me
I feel you so
Don’t forget
It’s Christmas time again
It’s Christmas time again
I hear you sing again on the TV and video
It’s Christmas time alone while you’re out there on your own
but it’ll be alright cuz I love you so, I love you so
I’ll put the tree up on my own
Let it glow
Hang these ornaments alone
Even though
You’re not here with me
I can’t let go
Don’t forget
It’s Christmas time again
Mae - Sun(Acoustic)
I’m a mess, I guess.
It’s what I’ve asked for, it’s what I’ve needed.
Well, you know me better than,
or at least you did then something happened.
But once again, well, something’s happened.
The confidence you held in us is
the rope we almost hung ourselves with.
At times I wonder if we really took the steps
to break right through it.
I know that there were better days,
but to see the light and to feel the rays.
Life was always back and forth
and we were idling or making useless progress.
Waiting for the rain to stop.
Destination: beautiful.
Seems that I’m still waiting for the sun. (Whoa yeah)
Someday will come back to us, if you’re willing, let it go.
Why won’t you just let this be your sun? (oh oh)
It seems like yesterday we had the world our way.
But some (whoa) say we’re headed for destruction.
i’ll ask you “What in the world should we do?”
This light is green our break is through.
Are we not trying or we’re trying too hard?
Well, you know I never want to miss,
I hold on tight and reminisce.
But it’s bittersweet to me.
When time stands still as it’s trapped inside
the letterbox you gave back to me.
But I’m the one who keeps on reading.
But I’m the one who wants to let it go.
I’m the first to speak.
You’re the last to know.
Another scene that we’re creating,
I need to know if we’re still making useless progress.
Waiting for the rain to stop.
Destination: beautiful.
Seems that I’m still waiting for the sun. (Whoa ohh)
Someday will come back to us, if you’re willing let it go.
Why won’t you just let this be your sun? (whoa ohh)
It seems like yesterday we had the world our way.
But some (whoa) say we’re headed for destruction.
Waiting for the rain to stop.
Destination: beautiful.
Seems that I’m still waiting for the sun.
Someday will come back to us, if you’re willing let it go.
Why won’t you just let this be your sun?
It seems like yesterday we had the world our way.
But some (whoa) say we’re headed for destruction. (whoaaa…)

Anberlin - Adelaide
You’re repeating me lines
That you think I want to hear
But I don’t want to hear anymore
As if sorry is any consolation
For what it’s worth
You’re stringing me along
Shouldn’t need anyone
Shouldn’t need anyone
Just scared of being alone
But by the time you’ve figured this out
And I’m already gone
Adelaide, Adelaide
You really had me going this time
Adelaide, Adelaide
You need to quit, quit making a scene
Adelaide, Adelaide
You really had me going this time
Adelaide, Adelaide
You need to quit, quit making a scene
You keep giving me signs
That you think I want to see
But you’re nothing like you’ve seen
Hiding behind your half smile
But the truth is so undeniable
Shouldn’t need anyone
Shouldn’t need anyone
Just scared of being alone
But by the time you’ve figured this out
And I’m already gone
Adelaide, Adelaide
You really had me going this time
Adelaide, Adelaide
You need to quit, quit making a scene
Adelaide, Adelaide
You really had me going this time
Adelaide, Adelaide
You need to quit, quit making a scene
Making a scene
Like lipstick traces on pillow cases
Some things in life are unforgettable
Like love, loss, lies, and lust, woah
Some things in life are undeniable
Like lipstick traces on pillow cases
Some things in life are unforgettable
Like love, loss, lies, and lust, woah
Some things in life are undeniable
Adelaide, Adelaide
You really had me going this time
Adelaide, Adelaide
You need to quit, quit making a scene
Adelaide, Adelaide
You really had me going this time
Adelaide, Adelaide
You need to quit, quit making a scene
