Sweat rolls warm down her shoulder She has a special way to hold her The hot wind burns All her fears away But it's just another day It's just another summer high It's just another summer high This is just another summer high It's just another summer It's just another summer Dashboard stings fingertips Ice cream drips Down from off her lips Warm oceans wash All her tears away It's just another summer high It's just another summer high This is just another summer high It's just another summer It's just another summer

Old grey town Birds, sight, and sound Old grey town Lost and unfound Your cold ghost Breathes down my neck Your cold ghost Watches me dream We don't need you anymore.

Half a man, half a truth, half a worm Lying tongue, lying teeth, still the world turns Half a friend, half a lie, half an enemy Lying eyes, Lying breath your futility Bright, Like the sun Like a fire, I'm putting you out Half a dog, half a toad, half the balls Lying throat, lying skull, still you stand tall Half the spine, half the heart, no humility Lying tongue, lying ink, your futility Bright, Like the sun Like a fire, I'm putting you out Half a man, half a truth, half a worm Lying tongue, lying teeth, still the world turns Half a friend, half a lie, half an enemy Lying breath, lying eyes, your futility Bright, Like the sun Bright, Like the sun Bright, Like the sun
4.	Play Guitar 02:37	lyrics	buy track
Anyone can play guitar You don't have to go far to learn Just take it from me Anyone can play guitar You don't have to play clean You don't have to shred like Yngwie Malmsteen Just take it from me Anyone can play guitar But it's hard to write the songs that really matter Words don't come on a silver platter Hearts or sleeves The former or the latter which way do we go? And it's easy Come and tease me Come and please me Anyone can play guitar Na na na na na na na na And it's easy Come and tease me Come and please me Anyone can play guitar

I am a fish In a river Of street lights And broken Promises Made and sweetened Carried through A broken city Are we leaving GET ME OUT OF HERE Are we leaving GET ME OUT OF HERE Trade in Lies and half-truth And cellular Promises Made and sweetened Carried through A broken city Are we leaving GET ME OUT OF HERE Are we leaving GET ME OUT OF Are we leaving GET ME OUT OF HERE Are we leaving? GET ME OUT OF
6.	Tumatakbo 03:26	lyrics	buy track
Tumatakbo Lumalayo na sa iyo. Ngunit bakit ganito? Pasensya na Kung akoy nagkulang Sa iyo aking sinta. Kahit may iba ka ng Ini-inda Sa iyong magulong nadarama. Koro: Nanghihinayang Sayang na sayang Nahihirapan Okay lang Yan. Alam Kong ayos lang magiging ayos lang Nalulumbay Payo nila walang saysay Ngunit bakit ganito? Ikaw padin Ang nasa isip ko. Ulitin Koro: Kahit na Wala ka na Hinahanap pa Rin kita Ngunit bakit ganito? Ang gulo/magulo Sakit sa ulo.
