MUSIC & LYRICS BY: J. KETCHMARK

I have all the things you want
I wish you’d never known
I think it’s just physical
You think its love

Don’t stare it frightens all the hopeless
You know that I couldn’t care less
You come to help yourself forget
What you’ve become

I take it so far that you’ll never go

I don’t feel what’s inside of me
But I see what’s inside of you
I don’t fear what’s inside of me
When I know what’s inside of you

It’s not always decent
You miss what I’ve outgrown
You think I’m too cynical
You think too much

Its rare you ask to confess
I know what I’m about to regret
You come to help yourself forget
To cut and run

I take it so far that you’ll never go

I don’t feel what’s inside of me
But I see what’s inside of you
I don’t fear what’s inside of me
When I know what’s inside of you

MUSIC & LYRICS BY: J. KETCHMARK

So determined to leave no stone unturned,
You can’t let it go
You treat it like it’s some disease,
You live with the unknown
You beg the butterflies for peace,
But that’s not how it goes
Who’s gonna see you fall
I’ll never tell a soul

Who’s gonna be your enemy?
When you push them all away
So hard to say
Who’s gonna be there on their knees
When it’s the price you pay?
And you’re about to break

So on your nerves to seem so unconcerned
It’s killing you real slow
Without a word you feel like you got burned
Bet the devil only knows

Your backs against the wall
Is that all she wrote

Who’s gonna be your enemy?
When you push them all away
So hard to say
Who’s gonna be there on their knees
When it’s the price you pay?
And you’re about to break

Who’s gonna see you fall
I’d never tell a soul

Who’s gonna be your enemy?
When you push them all away
So hard to say
Who’s gonna be there on their knees
When it’s the price you pay?
And you’re about to break

You packed your bags in rows
And you don’t want to listen
These days are dark I know
Can’t see what you’ve been missin’

And after all that we’ve become
I know it’s not over

I’m prayin we don’t lose this
As everything falls apart
I’m saying see me through
It’s just a step away from where we are

It wasn’t long ago
We weren’t in this position
You say it sucks I know
It’s not a cure for this condition

And when it’s all said and done
Don’t say that we’re over

I’m prayin we don’t lose this
As everything falls apart
I’m saying see me through
It’s just a step away from where we are

And when it’s all said and done
Don’t say that we’re over
And after all that we’ve become

I’m prayin we don’t lose this
As everything falls apart
I’m saying see me through
It’s just a step away from where we are

MUSIC & LYRICS BY: J. KETCHMARK

Savor every word you say
Like it’s your last
Take back all you gave away
No questions asked

Useless to have to fake
What’s left to say?

I can see this finally from the outside
As it’s caving in
I can see this finally from the outside
As it’s caving in
Who knows where you’ve been

Goodbye to this bitter taste
You can’t get past
Light up every safe escape
You want back

To damaged to rearrange
What’s left at stake?

I can see this finally from the outside
As it’s caving in
I can see this finally from the outside
As it’s caving in

Can’t you see, that it’s killing me so slow
Don’t you know, your lack of honesty
I just can’t let go

I’m hangin by a thread
Without you
Our worlds run through my head
I’m without you

I’m waiting on a star
A wish that just won’t come true

And I,
Wanted the world to stop
Before anyone noticed
And I,
Given it all I’ve got
Before you even start

I tried hard to forget
Without you
No matter how hard I bled
I’m without you

I’m waiting on a star
A dream I hope will find you

And I,
Wanted the world to stop
Before anyone noticed
And I,
Given it all I’ve got
Before you even start

Our worlds run through my head
I’m without you

Smokestacks on the skyline
Heaven turning into grey tide
Out past the city lights
Headed west down 29

Taillights set ablaze to the morning light
Paving the way to saving grace tonight

Further in the distance
Paradise is selling tickets
Auctioning off innocence
For visions of velvet engines

I think back to nights on fondulac drive
Setting it straight and saving grace

Tonight It’s time
To run out the night
To face our mistakes
By the dashboard light
Well find a place
So are dreams can survive
Tonight ignites
Out between these lines
Take the right of way
To the exit sign
It’s not to late
For saving grace tonight
Saving grace tonight

For saving grace.. Tonight
For saving grace.. Tonight
Taillights set ablaze to the morning light

Tonight It’s time
To run out the night
To face our mistakes
By the dashboard light
Well find a place
So are dreams can survive
Tonight ignites
Out between these lines
Take the right of way
To the exit sign
It’s not to late
For saving grace tonight
Saving grace tonight

Lets leave it all behind
No time left for long goodbyes
Got to make it out alive

Baby’s on the front porch
Bible in her hand
She got close to something
She don’t understand
Tryin to fit the pieces
Back together again
And figure out where it went wrong
So she can make amends

She’s like a wild horse
Flower in her hair
She gives me something to live for
I feel it in the air
She calls it as she sees it
Please answer my prayers
Leaves nothing to imagination
But all I can do is stare

I believe that she’ll make a slave of me

I wanna be what she sees, when she closes her eyes
I wanna be what she needs, that keeps her alive
I wanna be the cure, that lets her survive
I want to keep her next to me in this mason jar of mine

Baby’s like a fresh whore
After her first time
Nothing left to ask for
But a piece of mind
Doesn’t talk of reasons
Doesn’t even pretend
Sittin close to her salvation
Baby take my hand

I foresee she’ll be the death of me

I wanna be what she sees, when she closes her eyes
I wanna be what she needs, that keeps her alive
I wanna be the cure, that lets her survive
I want to keep her next to me in this mason jar of mine

MUSIC & LYRICS BY: J. KETCHMARK

I haven’t got a name
To put to your face
I haven’t got a story
Got nothing to say
It isn’t some kind of line
I’m sure you here everyday
Just another fleeting moment
Easily replaced

But it should have been more
Once you closed the door
You got under my skin
And I got into yours
Should have been the ending
We were both looking for
Should have been more
It Should Have Been More

It’s just not the same
No matter who’s in your place
I can’t turn this around
Nowhere to escape
If you hadn’t changed your mind
There’d be nothing to explain
Just another fleeting moment
Meant to find it’s place

It should have been more
Once you closed the door
You got under my skin
And I got into yours
Should have been the ending
We were both looking for
Should have been more
It Should Have Been More

MUSIC & LYRICS BY: J. KETCHMARK

It’s along way down
From the top of this cloud, and I don’t feel like falling

You’ve finally found out
What it’s been all about, a new day is dawning

But you say, it’ll take
Everything you have away

Step Back,
And waste a little time with me
You can see it all from here
Step Back,
There’s more to this than what you see
And you can see it all from here
From here

You won’t make a sound
When your feet hit the ground, this silence is haunting

You’ve finally come around
To what’s been left out, from a past that’s come calling

And it’s strange, how you’ve changed
And I hate to see you this way

Step Back,
And waste a little time with me
You can see it all from here
Step Back,
There’s more to this than what you see
And you can see it all from here
From here

Do they hold you down?
Like you want it
Do you scream out loud?
Are you desperate?
To take a stand

MUSIC & LYRICS BY: J. KETCHMARK

I can’t tell how you feel tonight
I can be what you want outright
Is this sympathy?
Or is it feeling right
I know too well, don’t apologize

Tell me how you’re feeling
And I’ll be there for you
Tell me all you want from me
Tonight

Just pretend everything’s all right
I don’t mean to be if I’m impolite
Is this gravity?
Or just a moments time
Is there someone else, I could be tonight

Tell me how you’re feeling
And I’ll be there for you
Tell me all you want from me
And I’ll make it all come true
‘til the Gravity between us gets us through
And I’ll be there for you

Tell me of your secrets
And I’ll keep them safe for you
Tell me all you want from me
And I’ll make it all come true
Tell me how you’re feeling
Are you drown

MUSIC & LYRICS BY: J. KETCHMARK

I’m out of anger
You won’t let me breathe
Is that your answer?
Leave me lingering
And how am I loveless
How am I owed nothing?
One reason more
Just like before

Pray,

This moment away
I can’t face the day, on my own
But you could save me
Stay,
This moment will fade
Leave me covered here in roses
Alone

We act like strangers
This stone’s set so deep
What are you after?
I gave everything
I’m left in the darkness
Only a soul burning
And one reason more
Just like before

Pray

This moment away
I can’t face the day, on my own
But you could save me
Stay,
This moment will fade
Leave me covered here in roses
Alone

MUSIC BY: J. KETCHMARK | LYRICS BY: D. SMITH

You’re a mystery unfolding
You’re a chill that’s in the air
Keep your distance like it’s golden
I can never reach you there
Every motion has a purpose
Every motive on your sleeve

You can hide all your scars,
from me
But in due time,
You’ll be mine,
All these eyes can see

I’ve been picking up the pieces
I’m never far behind
Your conditional releases
The ties that almost bind
Every hour I’ve been patient
Every last unanswered plea

You can hide all your scars,
from me
But in due time,
You’ll be mine,
All these eyes can see

Every gesture I’ve mistaken
Every unrequited need
Every confidence forsaken
Every time I’ve watched you leave
Was how it had to be
Was how it had to be
Like every wedge you drive between us
Every new catastrophe

MUSIC & LYRICS BY: J. KETCHMARK

I can barely spare the attention for this
Can hardly hold it in
You have clearly made a career of this
So where do I begin
Take your time to savor this little bit
Before my patience wears thin
Blur the lies, the maybes and the could of bins
To talk you’re way out again
When you feel it closing in

I can’t be your savior
I can’t be the one, you come running to
I can’t be your savior
I can’t be the one, you come running to
I can’t save you

There’s a line and you stepped over it
Can’t tell how long it’s been
Have you spilled your guilt on enough of this?
To drown out the violins
Pay no mind to favors so brittle fit
Pretend it’s a dream your in
How could your conscience allow this?
To suffer it again
Are you forgetting where you’ve been?

I can’t be your savior
I can’t be the one, you come running to
I can’t be your savior
I can’t be the one, you come running to
I can’t save you

All the tears I’ve tasted
All I’ve sacrificed and wasted
All the time I’ve spent with you
But still alone
All the years I’ve made excuses
For your illness and abuses
All the nights I knew that you weren’t
Coming home

MUSIC & LYRICS BY: J. KETCHMARK

Take a little bit of comfort
Take a little bit of pride
Take it all upon your shoulders
And pray u don’t die
Is this not what you came for?
Is it hard to survive?
Is it heavy on your mind tonight?

Did you wake up inspired?
Did you change last night
Has your sorrow retired?
With the cigarettes and wine
Are you not like all the others?
That I’ve buried inside
Do you know they’ll be another?
Just like the last time

So tell me how I hurt you
Before I speak my mind
Air these indiscretions
Over promises and lies
So tell me what I can do
For you to stay tonight
Lets share a word between us
Over cigarettes and wine

Is it heavy on your mind tonight?
Just like the last time

So tell me how I hurt you
Tell me how I hurt you
Tell me how I hurt you
Before I speak my mind
Air these indiscretions
Over promises and lies
So tell me what I can do
For you to stay tonight
Lets share a word between us
Over cigarettes and wine
Cigarettes and wine
