And if I shouldn’t Stay
You would not be so mistook
Don’t ask me why, I’m just trying hard to be here
Don’t even try, I’ve been waiting just to get gone
You’d never care, even though we wouldn’t go there
You’ll be alright, even though we won’t
And if I shouldn’t change
Please don’t make me lose my heart
Don’t ask me why, I’m just trying hard to be here
Don’t even try, I’ve been waiting just to get gone
You’d never care, even though we wouldn’t go there
You’ll be alright, even though we won’t
Even though we won’t
Just aspire to be there
Even though we won’t
Trade your time for me this time
Even though we won’t
Keep our hearts from breakin’
Even though we won’t
Even though we won’t
Don’t ask me why, I’m just trying hard to be here
Don’t even try, I’ve been waiting just to get gone
You’d never care, even though we wouldn’t go there
You’ll be alright, even though we won’t

Shattered

You've been through this for too long
And every day your heart gets shattered
Listen to me, I will break you with this song
Pissin' away what you love
Another night that won't matter in the morning
Who's gonna hold you 'til the ache you feel is gone
Lost and alone
Lift it up and carry on
We are so afraid to be wrong
Keepin' it to us and our tears
We will be shattered
You're such a klutz when you talk
You're always fallin' over everything you're sayin'
Passion is a lover you could court but never call
Pissin' away what you love
Another night that won't matter in the morning
Who's gonna hold you 'til the ache you feel is gone
Lost and alone
Lift it up and carry on
We are so afraid to be wrong
Keepin' it to us and our tears
We will be shattered

Ghosts To Show You
03:18
|

I bring them out when you are gone, dear
I've carried them for all my life
It's the bottle and this life I've led
That keeps me here and gone despite
How hard I've tried
I've made a mess of most of myself
I've traded love to worship wine
Waiting for calmer waters to sweep me up and dust me off
I've found the tides have not been kind
Anything that will help to take the edge off
All deepest sympathies aside
I wanna lay you down and beg you
I've got these ghosts to show you
Please help me turn these guests away

Tonight
03:29
|

Before our order's out of line
We'll drink straight from the bottle
And leave our empties where they lie
Collect our dead in the morning
These soldiers never saw it coming
Who's gonna be there tonight
Who's gonna be there for you tonight
Who's gonna be there to help you up and help you home tonight
Married to our failed routines
Our heavy hearts heave
We're still drowning
Always grieving waiting to give in
Who's gonna meet us out tonight
Step around our souls gently
We have a million feelings
You can't keep our faith on words alone
We have a million reasons
And all are wrong
These things will always make you crazy
Try your best to fit in with your friends
Married to our failed routines
Our heavy hearts heave
We're still drowning
Always grieving waiting to give in
These things you do will get the best of you

Best Days
03:34
|
|||
|
Tracking songs and longing for
A little love and something more
We could beat this luck
Another trip to the west side
Can’t count how many times
We wanted to stay home
Heading out to 65
Blacktop-kissed tire days
Where have they all gone
Drunken nights with vans on fire
Drug trafficking Texas Sheriffs
What were we thinking
We were held to love
As our heart was held to song
And we drank our share
As our endless tabs run off
It’s a long and lonely road
When there is no hope in sight
You just watched your past catch fore, boy
As you stared into the night
That was the end of the best days
Those days are gone
That was the end of the best days
Those days are gone
That was the end of the best days
When your band is all you know
And you've played your final show
You just go home
We all knew this fun would never last for long
As we grew tired of the same old 20 songs
Taking a back seat to everything else in your life
When your passion becomes work
You just wanna die
That was the end of the best days
Those days are gone
That was the end of the best days
Those days are gone
That was the end of the best days
When your band is all you know

Cold Lips
02:29
|

|
You don't care in your eyes
They're begging clouds to rain
Conviction in your byes
Could stray a man from sane
You offer up your lies
To cover up your ways
You're harried and your wise
No need to feel ashamed
Cold lips do feel colder than anything
Your cold lips do feel colder than anything
You're waiting for happenstance to lift this weight
The devil to your left brow is directing your mistakes
But it's no big deal if your angel's on strike
You should open up your heart to left your lover know your love is gone
When you feel you can't go on
Cold lips do feel colder than anything
Your cold lips do feel colder than anything
Your cold lips do feel cold

You know this somber's all wrong
When your chest stings
You've gotta give up all your bad times
To make these songs sing
I've forgotten everything
That makes me feel like anything
Just close your eyes and tell me lies
And everything...
Everything's all right
Your body pains when you rest
And aches when you rise
So sick, surrender all your sinnin' boy
Any make right all your lies
I've forgotten everything
That makes me feel like anything
Just close your eyes and tell me lies
And everything...
Everything's all right

What A Waste
04:01

I can’t read between the lines
Silence left for me to find
And I’m escaping..
Can’t grip my falling youth
It’s underrated
You’re so amused
And I can’t take it
We built this house to watch it
Burn to nothing
I never thought that you would run..
So, get your kicks with kerosene
You can fuck away our broken dreams
We were never sleeping
You know, you weren't “hogtied”
There’s no fucking plank
You jumped off of this ship before it sank
Just roll the credits when you will
We built this house to watch it
Burn to nothing
I never thought that you would run..
We forgot our hopes as we grew
Closer/further
It took too long to slow things up
You got the best of everything I wasn't
And all I got was this T-shirt
It didn't burn cause we felt nothing.. no
It never burned cause we were numb
We let it burn cause it was burning?
We let it burn cause you were gone

We Need This Place
04:01
|
|||
|
Another handle down
And a brown bag's four and ten
To keep these spirits calm
You need the warmth of a cold friend
The same old song again tonight
But the beat is fading out and in
We can kiss ourselves to sleep
If it means that we're not fighting
What's a couple more
When you found your place at ten
What's a couple more
When we're just drinking
We will make the case tonight
And we will finish most of it
We all make mistakes
We need this place
But I pick this life
And suffer on these strings
And I'll do what's right
If it means that I won't have to change
Jolene believe me when I say
I tried my best to kick this sin
But I know that another night
Will lead to me just giving in

Over And Over
03:40

Be still this broken heart
Forgotten dearest did keep
Just set your saddest songs on repeat
And play them over and over and over
Tonight'll kill this wax
As we polish off this next glass
And take a ride 'til nothing is familiar
It's eating at your heart
And it takes everything you've got
To offer up the other cheek and carry on
You can't help but hurt
And this sorrow is all you know
Dispair cannot be measured out in volume, no
And don't care at all
What the world is saying
All you should care about at all
Is that you have your way and
We will make up our minds
We will make up our minds for us this time
Be still this broken heart
Be still this broken heart tonight

InCalico Indianapolis, Indiana
if doves are five old friends coming to grips with being in their thirties,
and crying is a clinging to never
letting teenage dreams vanish and a tribute to 90's Sub Pop, Touch and Go or 120 Minutes videos,
then this is what it sounds like when doves cry.
