Shaker 03:40
As I look in the mirror I hear the whistle sound And I see what’s not there My last train’s come around I start to feel the day go by Just as the river rolls As if my answers lie Where the water goes I find myself looking back I still hear the sound And I see the tracks Of what wasn’t found I’m sailing under I don’t know where I’m bound I know it’s getting colder And I’m sinking down

I know that you said, it's all been for the best but now that you're gone I can't take it any longer Everything we had was all just for show and now that I see that I guess I don't know You went and left me standing in the rain Searching for the answers to the questions racking my brain and all of that knowledge I have since gained has shown me the path that I should take While you walked away, I thought my whole world would stop spinning And I'd say That I missed you so, but now that I know I feel like you should go You went and left me standing in the rain Searching for the answers to the questions racking my brain and all of that knowledge I have since gained has shown me the path that I should take

The Author 05:17
Looking back on recent history I'll tell you it was such a waste You know you'll pay for every choice you've made Don't let yourself suffer for too long No, no, no You're in control now don't forget it The only one who knows what's next Don't be afraid to open up your book It's there for you to read Learn from what's already been written yeah, yeah, yeah Even though the next chapter may seem daunting Keep writing Don't go insane over something you can change no, no, no You're in control now don't forget it The only one who knows what's next And when you feel like it's not getting better Remember you're the author of your book So crumple up the paper; start from scratch Turn it into something you won't regret Yeah, yeah yeah Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah Yeah, yeah, yeah You're in control now don't forget it The only one who knows what's next

What ghosts exist behind these attic walls? There's got to be a simpler explanation 'cause I scrimped and I saved just to find that they've been splicing my inventions Cold skin and bones at this latitude We ain't paying 'til the heat comes through So you slept in a stocking cap, a wool scarf and Promises of payments were upon your shoulders constantly but don't forget to entertain 'cause this is your first defense Four year offense for the devoted type I may have got an invitation but I wasn't invited But I thought that this meant something more than broken hearts and new addictions We'll leave our sins within the carpet twine Our bodies will dissolve the chemicals in due time Promises of payments were upon your shoulders constantly but don't forget to entertain 'cause this is your first defense

I've been a case until you took me out Torn and shattered and alone I found it very easy to get lost And I try, but I can't get out There is a place; it's not far from here, I don't know where, nor can I guide us there I leave this place And I try, but I can't get out And I try, but I can't get out I look across the bay to faces greeting me It's hard to look at things you don't want to see The easy to find are likewise lost And I try, but I can't get out
