Taking your circus to the sky"

chasing stars that are falling"

they're falling at my feet"

California Waiting

"I feel too close to be losing touch

By givin' in, what am I giving up?

Am I losing way too much?"

"I'm going so fast that I can’t slow down

It's hard to get up when you’re spinning round and round

I'd give you the news but nothing is changed

I'd sing you a song but they blew it away"

Molly's Chambers

"Just another girl that wants to rule the world

Any time or place

And when she gets into your head

You know she's there to stay"

That's when she fades away"

But I can't find no place or nothing, where thrills are cheap and love is divine"

Or you're all alone when you need my help

Keep that smile on your pretty face

I try so awful hard but I can’t change"

"I want in like a substitute

I’ve been working awful hard for you

Only By The Night (2008)

• Stranded in a spooky town
  Spotlights are swaying and
  The phone lines are down
  Floor is crackling cold
  She took my heart,
  I think she took my soul
  With the moon I'll run
  Far from the carnage of the fiery sun
  • Closer

• Off in the night while you live it up I'm off to sleep
  Waging wars to shake the poet and the beat
  I hope it's gonna make you notice, someone like me
  • Use Somebody

• I get lost in the light, so high I don’t want to come down
  To face the loss of the good thing that I had found

• So I drink and I smoke and I ask if you’re ever around
  Even though it was me that drove us right in the ground

• See the time we shared it was precious to me
  But all the while I was dreaming of revelry

• Born to run, baby run like a stream down a mountainside
  With the wind at my back I don’t ever even bat an eye
  Just know it was you all along who had a hold of my heart "

• Everything just felt so incomplete;
  dreaming of revelry"
  • Revelry

• Given the chance, I’m gonna be somebody
  If for one dance, I’m gonna be somebody
  Open the door, it’s gonna make you love me
  • Be Somebody

• Everyone noticed, everyone has seen the signs
  I’ve always been known to cross lines
  I never ever cried when I was feeling down
  I’ve always been scared of the sound
  Jesus don’t love me and no one ever carried my load
  I’m too young to feel this old
  • Cold Desert
