Toss away that ring, it will be alright
Break it off nice and clean, you can be you for you
Toss away that ring, it’s gonna be alright
The first few weeks it will cut so deep, but it’s something you knew
You’ll recover, stay clear from overdose
Gotta chin up, be here or somewhere close
Everyone has made up their minds
Except for you, you wanna follow suit
Everyone has made up their minds
If you’re gonna fall, you gotta find gotta find your parachute
Lose the headphones now, it will be alright
The magic hasn’t gone away, ‘cause of what we've been through
Lose the headphones now, it's gonna be alright
I got a taste of what you’ve seen, now I understand you
You’ll recover, stay clear from overdose
Gotta chin up, be here or somewhere close
Everyone has made up their minds
Except for you, you wanna follow suit
Everyone has made up their minds
If you’re gonna fall, you gotta find gotta find your parachute
Does it ever feel, does it ever feel
Like you’re barely keeping up
Do you ever feel, do you ever feel
So heavy you can’t get up
I know it feels, I know it feels
Like you’ve really had enough but
Your pulse is strong and your blood’s on fire
Living's not so tough
Could you tell me what’s been up lately, and where you’ve been
Tell me what’s been up lately, and what you’re up to?
Everyone has made up their minds
Except for you, you wanna follow suit
Everyone has made up their minds
If you’re gonna fall, you gotta find gotta find your parachute

Cigarette

It only got rain, rain, rainier
And it’s never ever been any crazier
Since last September
I would always come back, back, back to you
Give a kiss good night let my love come through
I remember
Were the stars obscured
by the city lights
or my misty lenses
or my faded senses?
I saw my smokey breath
Is it cold out here?
Am i far too wasted?
I can barely taste it
Oh, was it from the cigarette that somebody handed me that night
should've held your hand instead that night
Oh, I think I saw the silhouette of a friend I used to know
could've sworn it's you but I don't know
I gotta get up, up, outta here
to the place you showed me by the pier
last September
It'll never go wrong wrong wrong again
I promised you it was not pretend
I remember
Were the stars obscured
by the city lights
or my misty lenses
or my faded senses?
I saw my smokey breath
Is it cold out here?
Am i far too wasted?
I can barely taste it
Oh, was it from the cigarette that somebody handed me that night
should've held your hand instead that night
Oh, I think I saw the silhouette of a friend I used to know
could've sworn it's you but I don't know
No no no, I've lost balance, I'm stumbling and on my knees and
All that we've got is crumbling someone help me please
I gotta just forget about where I'm laying down right now
If I close my eyes I could smell the air when my hands were in your hair
Give me anything, Give me anything, give me anything, give me anything at all [x4]
Oh, was it from the cigarette that somebody handed me that night
should've held your hand instead that night
Oh, I think I saw the silhouette of a friend I used to know
could've sworn it's you but I don't know
Oh, was it from the cigarette that somebody handed me that night
should've held your hand instead that night
Oh, I think I saw the silhouette of a friend I used to know
could've sworn it's you but I don't know for sure

Buttons

Photographs of yard sales
taken way back when
Zoom in on the details
I remember us
Starting our collection
Buttons filled the space
Arranged them to perfection
I’m admitting that
I know I stole you from your life in another place
I know it killed you too; you moved along I stayed
21 buttons on my backpack
I remember where we got them all
This one's rare (this one’s rare)
It’s from London (it’s from London)
I don't care (I don’t care)
Anything else can wait
Live and learn we moved on
Time was different then
I am never all gone
I remember us
Holding hands combining
our plans to rule the world
Here’s a silver lining
I’m admitting when
I see the backpack like the one that we used to wear
I see the colors missing, yours always mirrored mine
22 buttons on my backpack
I remember where we got them all
This one’s tiny (this one’s tiny)
Someone’s calling (someone’s calling)
But it’s shiny (but it’s shiny)
Anything else can wait
In the summer running around
On our backs we carried around
All the bits that felt like they’d be sticking around a while
End of summer laying around
In the spot we’re always around
Are we seasonal?
Are we seasonal?
23 buttons on my backpack
I remember where we got them all
This one looks (This one looks)
Like the angel (like the angel)
From our books (from our books)
Anything else can wait
(Anything else can wait)
(Anything else can wait)
The 24th button on my backpack
It's the only one I've gotten on my own
Mine is red (yours is red)
Your favorite shade (my favorite shade)
In my head (in my head)
Anything else can wait
The 24th button on my backpack
It's the only one I've gotten on my own
Yours is blue (mine is blue)
My favorite shade (your favorite shade)
Yes it’s true (yes it’s true)
Anything else can wait
The 25th button’s in my pocket
It’s the only one I’ve gotten just for you

Tattoo

We were nine or ten or so
Drew some lines with markers we stole
On your arm I drew you the boys
On my arm you drew me a house
Nothing troubled us about
our tattoos they’re not the kind to last
Rub it in and now they’re gone
Everyday we add some on
And even if you don’t wanna see my face
And even if my stay is out of place
Your tattoo, either blood or ink
Is beautiful to me
Now we’re drinking to numb the pain
Smoking up, taking too many shots
On your arm I saw the stars
Where did you collect the scars?
You told me, “keep your trap shut tight”
But how could I tell lies to your folks
How I’ve driven you insane
You resupply your poison veins
And even if you don’t wanna see my face
And even if my stay is out of place
Your tattoo, either blood or ink
Is beautiful, it’s beautiful
(Beautiful, it’s beautiful) X3
If you don’t wanna see my face
If my stay is out of place
Your tattoo, either blood or ink
is beautiful, it’s beautiful
If you don’t wanna see my face
If my stay is out of place
Your tattoo, either blood or ink
is beautiful, it’s beautiful
And even if you don’t wanna see my face
(Beautiful, it’s beautiful)
And even if my stay is out of place
(Beautiful, it’s beautiful)
Your tattoo
(Beautiful, it’s beautiful)
is beautiful to me

Moving As One

Life of the party; It's not either of us so we're good to be gone
You kicked off your heels and we were skipping the halls and moving as one
Let's head for the beach; put on our song and dance through the night
You kicked off your shoes and we were spinning around and moving as one
We're saying no words but we're talking 'bout something
Staying in motion; we're gone by the morning
Call me crazy but I just can't help think that you're meant to be, be my passenger
It was funny when we threw our phones into the lake last night; don't shoot the messenger
I looked to my right and saw you swaying to my rhythm; singing out our anthem
We're moving as one
You looked to your left and saw me having just to much fun; almost jumping the gun
We're moving as one
Let's drive out to Boston; East on I-90, we'll make it there shortly
We're going the right way; the sun's in our eyes but we're moving as one
We're saying the words we've always been dreaming
Staying in motion; we're there by the evening
Call me crazy but I just can't help think that you're meant to be, be my passenger
It was funny when we threw our phones into the lake last night; don't shoot the messenger
I looked to my right and saw you swaying to my rhythm; singing out our anthem
We're moving as one
You looked to your left and saw me having just to much fun; almost jumping the gun
We're moving as one
Don't need to tell me the promise you're keeping
Staying in motion; we're still far from sleeping
Call me crazy but I just can't help think that you're meant to be, be my passenger
It was funny when we threw our phones into the lake last night; don't shoot the messenger
I looked to my right and saw you swaying to my rhythm; singing out our anthem
We're moving as one
You looked to your left and saw me having just to much fun; almost jumping the gun
We're moving as one
