Sister Hazel Album

Lyrics by: K. Block, R. Marx
Music by: K. Block, R. Marx

On the plane to Amsterdam
I left the carnage on the ground
In your seat was emptiness
So heavy we could barely ride it down

And every color since I walked away
Looks to me like every shade of wrong

But now I'm on the way back
Chasing something better
And it's turning me around
Baby if you still care
If there's still a burning ember
I'm ready to surrender now

The illness of my galaxy
Made you revolve around my world
But I cast myself as the brightest star
Falling further from the girl

All the things I thought were made of gold
Turned out to be every shade of wrong
Chorus

I left the promise bleeding
Cold and barely breathing
Can you still hold on
Chorus

Ready to surrender
I'm ready to surrender

Lyrics by: K. Block, E. Roland
Music by: E. Roland, K. Block

You need a little makeup dear
To cover up all your stains
With another trick right here, yeah
You fool them all once again

You need a little emptiness
Before you know what is real
And take a little taste of wine, yeah
To give yourself half a chance

And when you're weak of holding on
Release your wayward soul

And with these treasures you have found
The broken pieces of your crown
It's time to lay your cross on down

(Lay it down)
And with this kingdom you have now
It's time to lay your cross on down
You better lay it down

You carry in a bright white lie
To cover up all your shame
You're gonna have to testify
To color in all your claims

And when you're weak of holding on
Release your wayward soul and
Spend your days not falling down
Before your empty idols
Chorus

Lay it down
(Lay it down)
Chorus

Lay it down
(Lay it down)
Chorus

Lyrics by: K. Block, R. Marx
Music by: R. Marx, K. Block, S. Mills

On the road to safe
I kinda tripped along the way
It just seemed like a nasty hassle
The path was greener on the one less traveled
That's where I remained

People so high they think
I can't hear the whispers
I can see it falling off their face
Their trying to shoot down my plane of grace
It seems like it's already hard enough

But the paint on me is beginning to dry
And it's not what I wanted to be
The weight on me
Is Hanging on to a weary angel

So tell me what it is about me
Where did everybody go without me
So, I like to fantasize
And watch the sunrise like it's a big surprise
Life moves and I stopped to taste it

I drank it up till it left me wasted
But my rains have bled
A softer red
Oh you should see the world inside my head

You can shackle me away
And try to wrap around my dreamer
I feel better when I paint my days
With purple seas
And left out grays
Strange is just a different point of view

But the paint on me is starting to dry
And it's not what I wanted to be
The weight on me
Is holding onto a weary angel
Chorus

I feel better when I paint my days
With purple seas
And left out grays
Strange is just a different point of view

But the pain on me is beginning to dry
And it's not what I want it to be
So wait on me
Wait on me
Chorus

You should see

Lyrics by: J. Beres, R. Newell, K. Block
Music by: R. Newell

I've been a heavy handful to hold
Like rain slipping through your fingers
You've been tall to handle it all
Most people have already walked away

Our storm have taken a toll on you
Can you still weather me

I wanted so much to fill you up
But your cup is full of me
I've left a bitter taste on you
But you say its bitter sweetly

Breathe in
Be safe with me for a while
Lay here and take some time
I see you're tired and wasted so

Hold on to every little piece of my love
Just hold on to every little piece of my love
Hold on

Somebody's gonna make a promise to you
And somebody's gonna let you down
Nobody's gonna love you like I do
Nobody's gonna love so sweetly

Don't go just stay with me for a while
Lets try to make some sense of it all
I see you're tired and wasted so
Chorus

So hold on to me
When you're feeling dead inside
And close all the lines
To the times that we were living it all wrong

(Answer Backs)
Take me and break me
Then build me up and hold on
To every little piece of my love

Just hold on to every little piece of my love
(Repeat 3x)

Every little piece of my love
Every little piece of my love

Music by: S. Hazel

If you save you love me
I will be a fortunate man
Drop your inhibitions
Lay them on the ground where you stand

The only thing I'll change is everything
Oh come on won't you let me
I will lift you up

Maybe I'm not very
Pretty but I'm all that I got

So if you think about letting me in
You'll never worry about nothing again

If you let me love you
I will come through
If you let me love you
I will come through
If you let me love you
I will come through
I will come through
Yeah yeah yeah yeah

I'll celebrate you woman
Carry you above everyone yeah
And in the shady hours
I will be your midnight sun

The only thing I'll change is everything
Oh baby won't you let me
I will lift you up

I'd rather spend a moment with you
Than forever with anyone
Pre-Chorus
Chorus

So if your going let me
I will come through
If you let me love you
I will come through
If you let me love you
I will come through
I will come through
Yeah yeah yeah yeah

Let me love you
I will come through
(Repeat 3x)

Lyrics by: R. Newell, K. Block, J. Beres
Music by: R. Newell

Tell me everything that's on your mind
Tell me what the trouble is
And I'll make some time
You never seem to worry
About the things that you don't understand
Your cellophane window-pane keeps the world
From coming in

It's all about the love
It's everything you've been thinking of
It's all about the love
So here's to you and here's to something new
Give it up for love
Cause it'll be enough
For you

Show me everything you want to show
Tell me what the puzzle is
And where the pieces go
Candlelight, Barry White and candy-apple
Screw top wine
Laughing like the world won't pay us no mind
Chorus

Slow down
Have you looked at me lately
I've been standing around here waiting
Isn't it so fascinating
When loves, in love, with you
Chorus
Chorus

Lyrics by: D. Copeland, S. Lynch
Music by: D. Copeland, S. Lynch

Well if you're wondering

Where I've been all evening
If you think that I've drifted off
Without leavin' here I've finally found the answers
Don't worry, I'm not lost

I'm in the moment
The one where nothing matters
And everything's alright
I'm seeing things so clearly now
And you're the reason why
I'm in the moment
And I've alive
I'm alive

I've been restless but you have been so patient
Well I carelessly wasted my time
But you left the door open
And you kept the light on
You waited for me to arrive
Chorus

Well I've finally come around
And now I see
Every road has taken me
Where I wanna be
I wanna be
Chorus

I'm alive
(Repeat 3x)

Lyrics by: K. Block
Music by: K. Block

Just turn around
Turn away from me
Before I lose my head
Just turn around
But remember me
And how you left me dead inside

We were
Gonna be different
Now where did those
Dreamers go

I was the one who would paint the stars
And watch you while you slept
You were the one who held my heart
And smiled as it leapt inside

We were
Gonna be different
Now where did those
Dreamers go
Well I guess they died
We got older
And when you lied
Didn't have to

I don't know where I should go from here
Cause I never expected this of us
I'm only hanging on by a string
I don't know anything anymore
Chorus
Chorus
You didn't have to
Didn't have to

Lyrics by: R. Newell, J. Beres, K. Block
Music by: R. Newell

Diggin' in for another day
Carrying on in my own
But you know me
I live and die nearly every day
Insanity, it's havin' its way with me

These days in the gallows
I'm kneeling at the block
With my neck outstretched
And I should've stayed in the shallows

But you know me, I'm in too deep
And I'm waiting for another me
One that can change the pain of yesterday
Carry me through another day
And I'm waiting for another me
One in between the burn
And the lessons learned
'Cause being me ain't no way to be

I'm talking law down at Murphy's Bar
Unhappy hour on my own last call
Calling me out on my living lie
Looking for luck I can't even buy
Chorus

Give me one chance at recovering
What was lost
And give me one shot at redemption
At any cost
Repair my way before it breaks me
Don't break me

Hello did you notice me
Can't you see that I'm crumbling down
Tired of the same old same
I'm coming to
I'm coming back around
Chorus
Chorus

Lyrics by: K. Block
Music by: K. Block

She's not like anyone else
You wonder why she captured
You like a firefly
And makes you shine like you never could alone

And tell me
Can you see her shining
Through a crowded room
Where she's the view
And maybe
She'll embrace your innocence maybe

She gets high but hates those cigarettes
She speaks and breaks your intellect
And she's allowed to change her mind
Just you try to stop her yeah
Pre-Chorus

And so it is
The same you've not been since
One hit and you were lit up like a firefly
Be careful what you wish

She tells stories like a painter, yeah
With colorful words that I don't always understand
But it always sounds like somewhere better than here
Yeah, everywhere is better with her
Pre-Chorus
Chorus

She has a subtle way
Of making you forget your darkness
Behind some clever conversation
No finer heart, could ever beat for you
Pre-Chorus
Chorus
Chorus

Lyrics by: Rick Ocasek
Music by: Rick Ocasek

I don't mind you comin' here

And wastin' all my time
'Cause when you're standin' oh so near
I kinda lose my mind
It's not the perfume that you wear
It's not the ribbons in your hair
I don't mind you comin' here
And wastin' all my time
I don't mind you hangin' out
And talkin' in your sleep
It doesn't matter where you've been
As long as it was deep, yeah
You always knew to wear it well
And you look so fancy I can tell
I don't mind you hangin' out
And talkin' in your sleep

I guess you're just what I needed
(Just what I needed)
I needed someone to feed
I guess you're just what I needed
(Just what I needed)
I needed someone to bleed
Verse 1
Chorus

Yeah, so bleed me
You're just what I needed
You're just what I needed

Music by: J. Beres

Welcome to the world, oh yeah
A very unusual place
Don't let that scare you

Welcome to the world, oh yeah
It's in your face
It's all around you

Well it can't go on and on forever
So let it go
And hold on tight

It's all so new
Yeah you're so green
But I'll cover you
So enjoy the view
Yeah you're so green
Until you balance on the earth to find that love
Surrounds you

Welcome to the world, oh yeah
It's not your typical space
Just let it hold you

Welcome to the world, oh yeah
Don't quit the race
Let it unfold you
Pre-Chorus
Chorus

Anywhere you go
I'm gonna be one step behind you
You may not know
But I'll be there

Welcome to the human race
It's a very unusual place
But that's what makes it wonderful

Now your world has just begun
You're a very unusual one
And that's what makes you beautiful

Well it can't go on and on and on forever
So let it go
It will go on and on and on forever
When you go
So hold on
Hold on

Welcome to the world oh yeah
(Repeat)
