Cliche
I
I tried to write this song so many times
Can’t seem to find the words or rhymes
To tell you just what exactly I’m
Trying to find right now
I
I’ve got another little verse to fill
Another place to give you all the feels
Maybe this is the time I tell you all about
How I feel so uncool
Chorus
So I…
I’ll try to write you a song
I’ll try to write you a verse
I’ll try to write you something new
But it all turns out cliche
And I’m just trying to give you a little bit of
Hope along the way
Maybe I
I’m just chasing something that’s nothing more
than 3 seconds on a scroll
but I swear there more out there
Than what on
that little slab of glass
so
Chorus
I…
I try to write you a word
I try to write you a song
I try to write you something new
But it all turns out cliche
And I’m trying to give you a little hope along the
Way….
Bridge
It’s that feeling you have before opening the door
It’s the moment you find out that theres something more
It’s the time that you think about what is instead
Its the wit of the staircase leaving your head
Its a wonderful wonder you’re wishing about
Its the cusp of the moment you figure it out
Its the time and the money you saved just to spend
Its the edge of the fences that you didn’t bend
Its singing the words that trip over your tongue
Its a message you can’t to seem write on the phone
Its a call that you’ve been so waiting on
Its the smile on the doctor you were hoping for
Chorus
I…
I try to write you a word
I try to write you a song
I try to write you something new
But it all turns out cliche
And I’m trying to give you a little hope along the
Way….
A little bit of hope
I
I look at the mic and the people here,
Trying to find a song, trying to hear
something real I wish it was easy for
you as me Playing this riff for you
Saint Song
I've got Thomas in my boat telling me the story
As I row and question him if that's what he saw
He smiles and tells me to keep rowing
The questions make him happy,
They reminds him of himself
And everyone's favorite high is self pity
And we love to ride the wave of self righteous
Oh Cecilia give me a song
A song to carry us along
while I row and down the river with Thomas
Don't it make you feel good
When your hero prays
to the same God as you
It makes all seem
A little more real
The way, that it should
The way, it should
I don't pray to the Saints
But I'm asking now
Cecilia, bring me a song to carry me along
Cecilia bring me a song to carry me along
So I'll take my time on this river rowing
Row until this river finds the ocean
With all the answers that I was hoping to know
Before the current takes me down
Before the current takes me down
And everyone's favorite high is self pity
And we love to ride the wave of self righteous
Oh Cecilia give me a song
A song to carry us along
while I row down this river with Thomas
Don't it make you feel good
When your hero prays
to the same God as you
It makes all seem
A little more real
The way, that it should
The way, it should
I don't pray to the Saints
But I'm asking now
Cecilia, bring me a song to carry me along
Cecilia bring me a song to carry me along
I don't pray to the Saints
But I'm asking now
Cecilia, bring me a song to carry me along
Cecilia bring me a song to carry me along
Sound of Rain
Last night I woke up
To the sound of rain
The love of my life
Sleeping next to me
The house was quite
I could hear my children breath
I woke up to the sound of rain
I want to wake up every day with you
I want to see you every morn
And when that light shines through
I’ll be there too
I want to wake up, next to you
Last night I woke up
My phone rang out at me
There was only death
I had to come and see
I drove on on empty city streets
Till an old home I could see
My phone had death waiting for me
I want to wake up every day with you
I want to see you every morn
And when that light shines through
I’ll be there too
I want to wake up, next to you
Sunset is coming
Night will be here soon
I love the fireflies, its magic how the swoon
Let’s watch together, take this time with you
It will be getting dark soon
I want to wake up every day with you
I want to see you every morn
I want to be there, when that light shines through
I want to wake up, next to you
