Last To Know 03:39
We couldn't keep this pace We lied, but never changed We were the last to know How truly wrong we were But for the heat below Please tell me I wish I had your strength I wish I had your resolve 'Cause one simple memory Makes all my strength dissolve Please tell me I've been left behind I've been left behind You wanted me to wait for you But now you've passed me by Passed me by Please tell me Now you're with your other man And you're giving him your time, all your time You lead him to your home There's dirty in your eye Your movements in the dark Manipulate his breath You kill what remains of us When his smell is in your bed His smell is in your bed Tell me how to quit you Tell me how to quit you
2.
I'm letting go of you Letting go of every trace Of the contours of your face I'll fight the pull of sex I'm leaving all the mess That is lying 'round this place Oh-oh, oh-oh The wind is in the leaves I'm starting to believe Love can not set me free The sun is gonna rise I finally realize There is more than love to me From my cradle to my grave All my falls and all the blame I am this mess that we have made The lines of you are going to fade Letting go of you I'm lacing up my boots You'll know we're finished when I'm walking out the door Don't know what I'm looking for Keep on walking 'til I find my happy again

This Ol' Dog 04:12
This ol' dog got feelings too The ol' dog hurts when he's kicked by you This ol' dog still got to love No, he ain't had not near enough This ol' dog, he gettin' sore He hungry again, and he lookin' to score She got a new boy, but I don't care I'll send her home with my scent in her hair Let's all laugh together We all been on this road forever Time and again since the day we was born We was made to mourn We was made to mourn This ol' dog can feel your heat He know the deal when two bodies meet She's breathless again, and there's remorse in her moan When she recall she got that boy at home My nose in shit when I was true Couldn't tell no more when she was being cruel I'll get my bite, yeah, before I'm through I know it ain't right, baby I can blame it on you We all got the scent, we all get the scars Truly we are animals, truly we are I refuse to be alone in the fall Answer my call Answer my call That not make much sense to you? Then live your life as you will I will too
4.
Can't tell anymore, can't tell if I'm wrong If I'm moving forward, or moving at all In silence I wait, alone on the waves, just the same No one I know knows they're happy today No one I know knows they're happy today I waded out from the shore for the glimmer of gold The deep that awaited was desperate and cold But I'm not that bold, the waves pushed me on, now it's gone No one I know can stay happy for long No one I know can stay happy for long Now floating's becoming all that I know 'Cause floating feels safer than that unknown below I'm moving too slow, there's distance to make I will remain here alone by and by Where all my distractions keep me in line And all that's behind is starting to fade No one I know knows they're happy today No one I know knows they're happy today It's easier to stay in a world I create Indulging and dreaming, and never awake I'm treading for now, but starting to ache No one I know knows they're happy today No one I know knows they're happy today
5.
You know the reasons, yet here we are again It's as hard as we feared, but it keeps us from the end And all the words are leaving, the curtain tumbles down There's no doubt in your eyes, but no promises now You needed to know more of me Within these four walls Oh, I want you In this heart beats every part of you You've taken over You mad little thing, don't you look so proud What could I do when you caught me out? There's no defence to what you ain't seen before How could I know until you darkened my door? You needed to know more of me Within these four walls Oh, I want you All of me wants every part of you You've taken over But I just don't know What are we coming to? Ooh, I just don't know What are we coming to? Ooh, I just don't know What are we? You needed to know more of me Within these four walls

about

A visceral account of an end; the joy of moving on; revelling in bad choices; and ultimately finding yourself without answers.
