Aaron's Song 04:14
Everything's purple and red I'm living inside of my head I think I might be dead, I'm okay with it There's a valley in the middle of my bed Everything's orange and yellow I'm living inside of a hello It's coming from the cool side of the pillow There's a valley in the middle of my bed Everything's blue and green I'm wrapped up in my sheets I think I'm gonna freeze, I gotta get over it There's a valley in the middle of my bed Everything's moldy and brown I live outside in my house I think I'm coming down, I gotta get back to it There's a valley in the middle of my bed There's a valley in the middle of my head

I know that I don't look the same But I promise I haven't changed You might think that I don't look too good Baby that's understood I know that I don't look the same But I promise I haven't changed I still always ruin everything I haven't changed
3.
I was coming to find you, I'm sorry I didn't call for so long I got wrapped up right around a telephone pole I was scared I wouldn't get to say goodbye After all the times I treated you unkind I was coming to find you, I'm sorry I didn't call for so long I got wrapped up in a pair of handcuffs

Best Friend 01:53
He's filled with blood and he's covered in skin He's my brother but he ain't my kin He's my best friend He ain't too tall, he ain't too big Give him a shovel baby watch him dig He's my best friend I'll tell you once and I'll tell you again We'll love each other to the very end He's my best friend

Earth Again 05:34
Satan's getting stronger, God's just getting old Heaven's getting crowded, the world is just too cold Jesus never wanted to die for our sins All He ever wanted was just to be a kid Jesus never wanted God for a dad He's never coming back down to Earth again I'd like to fly around with Him in his UFO Floating through the cosmos, nowhere really to go

Life ain't so bad when you're living it It just gets a little hard when you're giving it All you got to no avail When all you need is a little wind in your sail Life ain't so bad when you're dreaming it It just feels a little harsh when you're awake in it It just drags on, it's such a chore But I keep hanging on, hoping for more Life ain't so bad if you can learn to look at the pretty things Life ain't so bad if you can learn to love the things you need Life ain't so bad if you can just remember to look ahead Life ain't so bad if you can just remember that you ain't dead Life ain't so bad

Parallels 04:29
If parallels collide, I'd rather fall into yours than you into mine I didn't ask for this life So take me away I don't want to stay
8.
Stay High 04:26
I don't really wanna die I wanna stay high So don't bring me down My feet are planted in the ground So quit your digging 'round Don't pull me out
9.
Swimming 04:02
Someday I'll stand on a rock, but not before I'm dead I've been trying my whole life to get to the shallow end Someday I'll finally float, but not before I drown Til then I'll be by the pool, I'm in the deep end now I gotta learn how to swim if I'm ever gonna beat him Death, He comes so swift, and all I can do is drift Someday I'll stand on a cliff, and right before I die I'll spread my arms and jump and cut through the sky And when I hit the ground I'll crack a little smile I know it ain't so bad 'cause I've felt dead for my whole life I gotta learn how to fly if I don't wanna die Death don't care at all, and all I can do is fall
