1.Pretty Girl From Matthews(Live) (Modify)

Lyricist:Scott Yancey Avett、Timothy Seth Avett、Robert William Crawford Jr.
Composer:Robert William Crawford Jr.、Scott Yancey Avett、Timothy Seth Avett

Hold on a minute it ain't time to leave
Tell me how you're feeling one more time
Four long years and I just can't believe
That I'm still yours and you're still mine

While I was gone, yes, I fell in love
Asked around and heard that you did too
Two drunken years and push came to shove
I met love, love left me blue

You're rising like a sun
That pulled the curtain on the night
Coming through the window
To brighten up my life

And I'm all right, yeah, I think I'm fine
My savior lives in telephones
And I just dream of you and step outside
Dial up and hope that you're home

You're rising like a sun
That waits up all night
Coming through the window
To brighten up my life

Hold on a minute, yeah, I do love you
Sometimes I guess that ain't enough
When you come round you put me through
And I thank you, oh, so much

Another year, maybe, three or four
Maybe five or six or even more
You'll find another man to take my place
And I'll see you on the good Lord's shores

You're rising like a sun
That pulled the curtain on the night
Coming through the window
To brighten up my life

2.Talk On Indolence(Live) (Modify)

Lyricist:Scott Yancey Avett、Timothy Seth Avett、Robert William Crawford Jr.
Composer:Robert William Crawford Jr.、Scott Yancey Avett、Timothy Seth Avett

Well I've been lockin' myself up in my house for sometime now
Readin' and writin' and readin' and thinkin'
and searching for reasons and missing the seasons.
The Autumn, the Spring, the Summer, the snow.
The record will stop and the record will go.
Latches latched the windows down,
the dog coming in and the dog going out.
Up with caffeine and down with a shot.
Constantly worried about what I've got.
Distracting my work but I can't make a stop
and my confidence on and my confidence off.
And I sink to the bottom and rise to the top
and I think to myself that I do this a lot.
World outside just goes it goes it goes it goes it goes it goes...
and witness it all from the blinds of my window.
THREE, FOUR

I'm a little nervous 'bout what you'll think
When you see me in my swimming trunks
Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com Lyrics
And last night in New York I got raging drunk
Remember one time I got raging drunk with you

Now, I can recall a time when we made the city
Streets our playground, kissing in the fountains
Filled with cigarettes and bottles
Sped through Italian city streets of cobblestone

Because we had to
Because I loved you
Because the damned alcohol
Beacuse what ever at all

Now I've grown to aware of my mortality
To let go and forget about dying
Long enough to drop the hammer down
And let the indolence go wild and flying through

Because we had to

4.The Ballad Of Love And Hate(Live) (Modify)

Lyricist:Scott Yancey Avett、Timothy Seth Avett、Robert William Crawford Jr.
Composer:Robert William Crawford Jr.、Scott Yancey Avett、Timothy Seth Avett

Love writes a letter and sends it to Hate
'My vacation's ending, I'm coming home late.
The weather was fine, and the ocean was great,
and I can't wait to see you again.'

Hate reads the letter and throws it away
No one here cares if you go or you stay
I barely even noticed that you were away
I'll see you or I won't, whatever

Love sings a song as she sails through the sky
The water looks bluer through her pretty eyes
and everyone knows it whenever she flies
and also when she comes down

Hate keeps his head up and walks through the street
Every stranger and drifter he greets
and shakes hands with every loner he meets
with a serious look on his face

Love arrives safely with suitcase in tow
Carrying with her the good things we know
A reason to live and a reason to grow
To trust, to hold, to care

Hate sits alone on the hood of his car
Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com Lyrics
Without much regard to the moon or the stars
Lazily killing the last of a jar
of the strongest stuff you can drink

Love takes a taxi a young man drives
As soon as he sees her hope fills his eyes,
but tears follow after at the end of the ride
'cause he might never see her again

Hate gets home lucky to still be alive
He screams o'er the sidewalk and into the drive
The clock in the kitchen says 2:55
and the click in the kitchen is slow

Love has been waiting patient and kind
Just wanting a phone call or some kind of sign
that the one she cares for who's out of his mind
will make it back safe to her arms

Hate stumbles forward and leans in the door
weary head hung down eyes to the floor
He says, 'Love I'm sorry'
and she says, 'What for?
I'm yours and that's it, forever'
'I should not have been gone for so long
I'm yours and that's it forever
You're mine and that's it forever'




5.Colorshow(Live) (Modify)

Lyricist:Scott Yancey Avett、Timothy Seth Avett、Robert William Crawford Jr.
Composer:Robert William Crawford Jr.、Scott Yancey Avett、Timothy Seth Avett

Be loud, let your colorshow
Try to keep the madness low
If they hear and it's wrong
And they come with torches on
Yeah, come on

Be loud, let your colorshow
Try to keep the madness low
I tell 'em no with my hands
Make 'em understand the plan of it
Bright it glowed
And I'm done forever it's you and me forever
'Cause I'm done forever it's you and me for ever

Be loud, let the others know
First a whisper then it grows
I tell 'em go with my hands
Make 'em understand the last of it
Yeah come on
Fate is all
Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com Lyrics

Be loud, pack your things and go
Leave the baby makers home
There's a time and a place
Someone built to take to the race
When it goes you go

Head down, doesn't make a sound
Keep your plans all to yourself
They'll come true
They'll stomp on you
Do what you're obligated to
Dont you listen to nobody else

And I'm done forever it's you and me forever
Cause I'm done forever its you and me forever
And I'm done forever see it's you and me forever
And I'm done forever it's you and me forever
And I'm done forever it's you and me forever
Cause I'm done forever it's you and me forever
And I'm done forever it's you and me forever

6.I And Love And You(Live) (Modify)

Lyricist:Scott Avett、Seth Avett、Robert William Crawford Jr.
Composer:Robert William Crawford Jr.、Scott Avett、Seth Avett

Load the car and write the note
Grab your bag and grab your coat
Tell the ones that need to know
We are headed north

One foot in and one foot back
But it don't pay to live like that
So I cut the ties and I jump the tracks
For never to return

Ah, Brooklyn, Brooklyn, take me in
Are you aware the shape I'm in
My hands they shake, my head it spins
Ah, Brooklyn, Brooklyn, take me in

When at first I learned to speak
I used all my words to fight
With him and her and you and me
Ah, but it's just a waste of time
Yeah, it's such a waste of time

That woman, she's got eyes that shine
Like a pair of stolen, polished dimes
She asked to dance, I said it's fine
I see you in the morning time

Ah, Brooklyn, Brooklyn, take me in
Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com Lyrics
Are you aware the shape I'm in
My hands they shake, my head it spins
Ah, Brooklyn, Brooklyn, take me in

Three words that became hard to say
I and Love and You
What you were then, I am today
Look at the things I do

Ah, Brooklyn, Brooklyn, take me in
Are you aware the shape I'm in
My hands they shake, my head it spins
Ah, Brooklyn, Brooklyn, take me in

Brooklyn, Brooklyn, take me in
Are you aware the shape I'm in(aaah)
My hands they shake, my head it spins(spins)
Ah, Brooklyn, Brooklyn, take me in

Dumb, down and numb by time and age
Your dreams they catch the world to the cage
The highway sets the travelers stage
All exits look the same

Three words that became hard to say
I and Love and You
I and Love and You
I and Love and You




7.Shame(Live) (Modify)

Lyricist:Robert William Crawford Jr.、Timothy Seth Avett、Scott Yancey Avett
Composer:Robert William Crawford Jr.、Scott Yancey Avett、Timothy Seth Avett

Okay, so I was wrong about
My reasons for us fallin' out
Of love I want to fall back in
My life is different now, I swear
I know now what it means to care
About somebody other than myself
I know the things I said to you
They were untender and untrue
I'd like to see those things undo
So if you could find it in your heart
To give a man a second start
I promise things won't end the same

Shame, boatloads of shame
Day after day, more of the same
Blame(blame), please lift it off
Please take it off, please make it stop

Okay, so I have read the mail
The stories people often tell
About us that we never knew
But their existence will float away
And just like every word they say
And we will hold hands as they fade

Shame, boatloads of shame
Day after day, more of the same
Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com Lyrics
Blame(blame), please lift it off
Please take it off, please make it stop

I felt so sure of everything
My love to you, so well received
And I just strutted around your town
Knowing I didn't let you down
The truth be known, the truth be told
My heart was always fairly cold
Posing to be as warm as yours
My way of getting in your world
But now I'm out and I've had time
To look around and think
And sink into another world
That's filled with guilt and overwhelming

Shame, boatloads of shame
Day after day, more of the same
Blame(blame), please lift it off
Please take it off, please make it stop

And everyone, they have a heart
And when they break and fall apart
And need somebody's helping hand
I used to say 'just let 'em fall'
It wouldn't bother me at all
I couldn't help them, now I can




8.When I Drink(Live) (Modify)

Lyricist:Timothy Seth Avett、Scott Yancey Avett
Composer:Scott Yancey Avett、Timothy Seth Avett

When I drink
I say things I don't want to say
I do things I don't wanna do
I talk mean to you
But if I think
I just might get something out of this
My parents taught me to learn when I miss
Just do your best
Just do your best

It's the only way to keep that last bit of sanity
Maybe I don't have to be good but I can try to be
At least a little better than I've been so far

But when I drink
I hear things that aren't really there
I feel things when I shouldn't really care
Have fist fights with the air
Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com Lyrics
But if I think about someone besides myself
I lived through the silver and the bell
With something to tell
Just do your best

It's the only way to keep that last bit of sanity
Maybe I don't have to be good but I can try to be
At least a little better than I've been so far

But when I drink
I spend the next morning in a haze
But we only get so many days
Now I have one less
Just do your best

It's the only way to keep that last bit of sanity
Maybe I don't have to be good but I can try to be
At least a little better than I've been so far
Oh, at least a little better than I've been so far




9.Murder In The City(Live) (Modify)

Lyricist:Scott Yancey Avett、Timothy Seth Avett、Robert William Crawford Jr.
Composer:Robert William Crawford Jr.、Scott Yancey Avett、Timothy Seth Avett

If I get murdered in the city,
Don't go revengin' in my name
One person dead from such is plenty
No need to go get locked away

When I leave your arms
The things that I think of
No need to get over-alarmed
I'm comin' home

I wonder which brother is better,
Which one our parents love the most
I sure did get in lots of trouble
They said to let the other go

Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com Lyrics
A tear fell from my father's eyes
I wondered what my dad would say
He said 'I love you
And I'm proud of you both, in so many different ways'

If I get murdered in the city,
Go read the letter in my desk
Don't worry with all my belongings,
But pay attention to the list

Make sure my sister knows I loved her
Make sure my mother knows the same
Always remember, there was nothing worth sharing
Like the love that let us share our name
Always remember, there was nothing worth sharing
Like the love that let us share our name




10.I Killed Sally's Lover(Live) (Modify)

Lyricist:Scott Yancey Avett、Timothy Seth Avett、Robert William Crawford Jr.
Composer:Robert William Crawford Jr.、Scott Yancey Avett、Timothy Seth Avett

Somebody get my shotgun
Somebody get my blade
Sally's been layin' with another man
And he's sleeping in my place
Somebody get my shotgun
Gonna shoot him sure as rain
You can run as fast as you want to boy
I'll kill you just the same

Somebody get my pocket blade
Gonna cut him don't you know
You can try to hide all you want to boy
There ain't nowhere to go
Somebody get my shotgun
Somebody get my blade
Sally's been layin' with another man
And he's sleeping in my place

Now Sally don't go thinkin'
That you got off so clean
I'd kill you too if I had the nerve
But I just ain't that mean
So I go and get my murder tools
I throw them in the lake
Gonna steal me an automobile
Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com Lyrics
And drive so far away
Now I am a fugitive
I'm always on the run
Sally told the policeman
Exactly what I'd done
I went and got my shotgun
I went and got my blade
Killed poor Sally's lover
And I put him in the grave.

Now all you ramblin' fellas
You listen close to me
That woman gonna bring you pain
Your heart is gonna bleed
But it ain't worth the trouble
The sufferin' or the grief
A bleeding heart is better than the penitentiary
I killed Sally's lover
One dark and dreary day
Sally got another
And I got sent away
Somebody get my shotgun
Somebody get my blade
Sally's been laying with another man
And I set him in his grave




11.Head Full Of Doubt / Road Full Of Promise(Live) (Modify)

Lyricist:Scott Avett、Seth Avett、Robert William Crawford Jr.、Scott Yancey Avett、Timothy Seth Avett
Composer:Robert William Crawford Jr.、Scott Avett、Seth Avett

There's a darkness upon me that's flooded in light
In the fine print they tell me what's wrong and what's right
And it comes in black and it comes in white
And I'm frightened by those who don't see it

When nothing is old, deserved or expected
And your life doesn't change by the man that's elected
If you're loved by someone you're never rejected
Decide what to be and go be it.

Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com Lyrics
There was a dream
One day I could see it
Like a bird in a cage a broke in and demanded that somebody free it
And there was a kid, with a head full of doubt
So I scream till I die and don't ask for those bad thoughts to find me out

There's a darkness upon you that's flooded in light
In the fine print they tell you what's wrong and what's right
And it flies by day and it flies by night
And I'm frightened by those who don't see it




12.The Perfect Space(Live) (Modify)

Lyricist:Scott Yancey Avett、Timothy Seth Avett、Robert William Crawford Jr.
Composer:Robert William Crawford Jr.、Scott Yancey Avett、Timothy Seth Avett

I wanna have friends that I can trust,
that love me for the man I've become not the man I was.
I wanna have friends that will let me be
all alone when being alone is all that I need.

I wanna fit in to the perfect space,
feel natural and safe in a volatile place.
And I wanna grow old without the pain,
give my body back to the earth and not complain.
Will you understand when I am too old of a man?
And will you forget when we have paid our debt
who did we borrow from? Who did we borrow from?

Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com Lyrics
Okay part two now clear the house.
The party's over take the shouting and the people,
get out!

I have some business and a promise that I have to hold to.
I do not care what you assume or what the people told you.
Will you understand, when I am too old of a man?
Will you forget when we have paid our debts,
who did we borrow from? Who did borrow from?

I wanna have pride like my mother has,
And not like the kind in the bible that turns you bad.
And I wanna have friends that I can trust,
that love me for the man I've become and not the man that I was.




13.Paranoia In B Flat Major(Live) (Modify)

Lyricist:Scott Yancey Avett、Timothy Seth Avett、Robert William Crawford Jr.
Composer:Robert William Crawford Jr.、Scott Yancey Avett、Timothy Seth Avett

I keep tellin' myself that it'll be fine
You can't make everybody happy all of the time
I find myself in a place that I never been
A place that I thought that I could never be
There's people looking back at me

I keep having this dream; I'm at a party
There's people throwing drinks and screaming telling me that I don't belong
Lately life's been the same I find this comfortable place
With all my friends then my friends start telling me
that I've always been wrong
And I'm so tired of being wrong
Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com Lyrics

There was a time I could move there was a time I could breathe
The crowded spaces filled with angry faces
It didn't once cross my mind
With paranoia on my heels; Will you love me still
when we awake and see that the sanity has gone from my eyes?

I got secrets from you, you got secrets from me
Because you're so worried about what I'm gonna to think,
Well I'm worried too
But if love is a game, girl, then you're gonna win
I'll spend the rest of my life bringing victory in
If you want me to




14.Distraction #74(Live) (Modify)

Lyricist:Scott Yancey Avett、Timothy Seth Avett、Robert William Crawford Jr.
Composer:Robert William Crawford Jr.、Scott Yancey Avett、Timothy Seth Avett

I was in love with your beauty from the day you walked my way
Oh how I wish that was enough to have made me want to stay
See I'm as true as I try to be and I must say my girl
I tried the best to give to you all of the truest in the world

But when I left your house that morning in that ragged thunderbird
Tried so hard to fight the voices from the devil's that I heard
See there's a highway to the right of us I took it years ago
And since a year ago can't drive past, without turning down that road

And I knew it,
I never should have turned the wheel
And I knew it,
The voices calling me were real
I knew it
Listen to the song they sing
I knew I was wrong
And I knew I was wrong
Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com Lyrics

So give me a try at describing just how difficult it is
When you kinda love two girls to figure out which one you miss
Stumble away from your stairway with your perfume on my clothes
Well I kinda loved two girls but now I've kinda lost 'em both

And I knew it,
I never should have turned the wheel
And I knew it,
The voices calling me were real
I knew it
Listen to the song they sing
I knew I was wrong
And I knew I was wrong

And if I could gather up the damage that I rendered in my life
Place it on a scale and weigh against the damage done that night
Then it'd be safe to say the weight of all I did and didn't do
Would surely float against the lightest wrong I ever did to you




15.Kick Drum Heart(Live) (Modify)

Lyricist:Scott Avett、Seth Avett、Robert William Crawford Jr.
Composer:Robert William Crawford Jr.、Scott Avett、Seth Avett

The footprints over the snow
the fabric of all the lonely
C-Covering only
the fables and hands
the rest is out in the cold
holding the last of the season
F-F-F freezin' Yeah

My my my heart like a kick drum
My my heart like a kick drum
My my heart like a kick drum
My love like a voice.

We're walkin' in to the fields.
We're walkin in to the forest.
The moon is before us.
Up above
We're holdin' hands in the rain
S-sayin' words like I love you

D-d-d'you love me? Yeah

My my heart like a kick drum
My my heart like a kick drum
My my heart like a kick drum
My my love like a voice

Mother Mary heard us approaching her door
Although we didn't make a sound.

There's nothing like finding gold
within the rocks hard and cold
I'm so surprised to find more
Always surprised to find more

I won't look back anymore
I left the people that do
Its not the chase that I love
Its me following you.

16.Salvation Song(Live) (Modify)

Lyricist:Scott Yancey Avett、Timothy Seth Avett、Robert William Crawford Jr.
Composer:Robert William Crawford Jr.、Scott Yancey Avett、Timothy Seth Avett

If you take my heart
Don't leave the smallest part
I've no need to live if you're to come up gone
An as my life turns to a song
And if and when I treat you wrong
No I never want to hurt our family

And I would give up everything
No this is not just about me
And I don't know a plainer way to say it Babe
And they may pay us off in fame
Though that is not why we came
And I know well and good that won't heal our hearts

We came for salvation
We came for family
We came for all that's good that's how we'll walk away
We came to break the bad
We came to cheer the sad
We came to leave behind the world a better way

Now if I'm walkin' through the rain
And I hear you call my name
I will break into a run without a pause
And if your love laughs at your dreams
Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com Lyrics
Well it's not as bad as it seems
Either way one of them has got to go
And if you take of my soul
You can still leave it whole
With the pieces of you own you leave behind

We came for salvation
We came for family
We came for all that's good that's how we'll walk away
We came to break the bad
We came to cheer the sad
We came to leave behind the world a better way

And I would give up everything
And if you were to come up clean
And see you shine so bright in a world of woe
And they may pay us off in fame
But that is not why we came
And if it compromises truth then we will go

We came for salvation
We came for family
We came for all that's good that's how we'll walk away
We came to break the bad
We came to cheer the sad
We came to leave behind the world a better way
