Keep in mind I didn’t know
Just drew and let the arrow go
Guess I thought I’d say hello
Who in the world knows what I was thinkin’?
Keep in mind we weren’t so young
But we were always havin’ fun
Seemed to end before begun
Who in the world knows what we were thinkin’?
It passed as we were blinkin’
Ooh ooh, I’m thinking about you
Ooh ooh, I can’t live without you
Ooh ooh, I’m holding on to memories
Madison
Ooh ooh, I’m thinking about you
Ooh ooh, I can’t live without you
Ooh ooh, I’m holding on to what I got
Madison
Keep in mind the crazy nights
Rockin’ out under the lights
Surely those were certain heights
Who in the world knows that we were thinkin’?
Keep in mind the mystery
The never knowing what could be
But we’d be great you must agree
Who in the world knows what we were thinkin’?
It passed as we were blinkin’
Ooh ooh, I’m thinking about you
Ooh ooh, I can’t live without you
Ooh ooh, I’m holding on to memories
Madison
Ooh ooh, I’m thinking about you
Ooh ooh, I can’t live without you
Ooh ooh, I’m holding on to what I got
Madison

Madison
We were only speaking from the heart
We were only speaking from the heart
We were always speaking from the heart
Ooh ooh, I’m thinking about you
Ooh ooh, I can’t live without you
Ooh ooh, I’m holding on to memories
Madison
Ooh ooh, I’m thinking about you
Ooh ooh, I can’t live without you
Ooh ooh, I’m holding on to what I got
Madison
Ooh ooh, I’m thinking about you
Ooh ooh, I can’t live without you
Ooh ooh, I’m holding on to what I got

Escape Hatch

It’s hard to change the kind of life I’ve been living
Stepped off my pedestal and looked around
Spent all my time making the wrong decisions
With all my friends that live under the ground
I’ll never go too far
One hand on the release
Escape hatch when I find
There’s nothing left to see
Read to me his deepest poetry
Means nothing
But doesn’t know it, he’s
Locked up tight inside his own memory
Stack them up, one for each night that I
Can’t recall
I’ve lost all sight of what
Ego means, but he’s still telling them no one understands
It’s honesty that’s making it even harder
Sometimes the lie is better than the truth
And everyone seems to have their own opinion
But then again I guess that’s nothing new
I’ll never go too far
One hand on the release
Escape hatch when I find
There’s nothing left to see
Read to me his deepest poetry
Means nothing
But doesn’t know it, he’s
Locked up tight inside his own memory
Stack them up, one for each night that I
Can’t recall
I’ve lost all sight of what
Ego means, but he’s still telling them no one understands
Read to me his deepest poetry
Means nothing
But doesn’t know it, he’s
Locked up tight inside his own memory
Stack them up, one for each night that I
Can’t recall
I’ve lost all sight of what
Ego means, but he’s still telling them no one understands

There are times throughout your life where you won’t win
When your heart just wants to burst and bleed within
When you’re facing down a newly chilly stare
And you try to say the words but find just air
I’ll be there, I’ll be there
When you’re lonely, I still care
If you’re needing love, I can spare
Play the stereo and I’ll be there
Now you realize the saying “Life is pain”
And the lie within the rhyme of “Sticks and stones”
With the image of goodbye burned in your brain
And the sadness of the moment in your bones
I’ll be there, I’ll be there
When you’re lonely, I still care
If you’re needing love, I can spare
Play the stereo and I’ll be there
Though you may not feel strong enough
And you may feel the going’s tough
When living leaves you rough and left for dead
I’ll be there, I’ll be there
When you’re lonely, I still care
If you’re needing love, I can spare
Play the stereo and I’ll be there

It’s happening again but this time
This time is the last
I put my foot down
I swear I’ll put it down
Can’t help but want the final word
It’s so hard to be so right
Can’t you see it?
I could make you see it
Promise I’m not interested in anything I’m told
Cross my fingers, hope to die, I’ll never tell a soul
I put myself in the middle again
I did it on my own
I put myself in the middle again
But now it feels like home
Lock up all your confidence and throw away the key
All to keep your secret safe from me
Nod and smile, it’s just a game
I’ve got cards up both my sleeves
If they don’t catch me
Well it’s not if, it’s when
I gave it all my effort, well
I tried I tried I tried I tried
To mean it
Someday I’ll mean it
Promise I’m not interested in anything I’m told
Cross my fingers, hope to die, I’ll never tell a soul
I put myself in the middle again
I did it on my own
I put myself in the middle again
But now it feels like home
Lock up all your confidence and throw away the key
All to keep your secret safe from me
Try to keep track
Of the sides that I play
Nobody’d know
If I had my way
Quickest way out
Is straight through they say, oh
Lay them all out
One by one on the bed
White flags for each
Of the people I’ve met
I haven’t had
Enough of this yet, no
I put myself in the middle again
I did it on my own
I put myself in the middle again
But now it feels like home
Lock up all your confidence and throw away the key
All to keep your secret safe from me
I put myself in the middle again
I did it on my own
I put myself in the middle again
But now it feels like home
I put myself in the middle again
I did it on my own
I put myself in the middle again, I know

So A Fond Farewell
00:52

Though a fond farewell
I promise to return
Only time can tell
What lessons to re-learn
Memories and daydreams satisfy me now and then
But all the strongest walls can’t stop me comin’ back again
So a fond farewell
But I’ll be back for more
One more glance behind
This wolf is out the door
