Lyrics to “Stand Tall” EP

I’ve been noticing around the interwebs that lyrics for the EP are not available anywhere…so….here they are!

Four Superbowls, No Rings
I won’t say a word as i turn every light down in this town. you won’t hear me coming, not the sound of my feet running, to take you down. these new york winters are killing me. And I won’t say a word as i burn every building in this town to the ground. And it makes me feel so small to know that all the damage done won’t change a thing
because this place is becoming worse and worse. these new york winters are killing me. so i said to myself i need a change of pace. every day gets worse and worse and i can’t keep running this race. and december has been better, but it’s been years since i stood up and said,“It’s time to face my fears.” I won’t say a word, my voice is too unfamiliar to be heard. And i wont say a word to anyone.

You Always Know What’s Best
I know it’s late but I’ve been up for days. We Haven’t spoken in far too long ‘cause I have Nothing left to say. I’m a mess with all this constant stress. you always know what’s best. but that won’t stop the restlessness. all i have left are traces of the city skyline to remind me of where i’m from. we can’t start over again. “It’s so fucking cold,” she said, “I don’t know what to do, ben.” ‘Cause you always said i’m worth more than I know. you always said i’M too impatient to let things grow. maybe you’re right, but there’s some things you should know. first – close the door. I want you to know that this love is war. Look out for the mines, yeah we’ve all been here before. my body is weak but my heart can endure. i said, “Let’s just get you in your bed.” Tomorrow we’ll sew the seams and you can tell me about your dreams.

What’s Left Of You
I wish that I could say the pain wasn’t enough to keep me awake some nights it was just to much for me to take
This road is a dead end when all I want to do is just pretend that I’m sitting next to my friend
Back then I couldn’t tell you when I contemplated one man’s end
So far I found that searching is hard but it’s not impossible
Back then it was too much for me to handle but I learned
That if your pain keeps you in chains just don’t dismantle what’s left of you
You got enough to get you through
You know when you died a part of me died too
You got enough to get you through
It’s so hard to say we’ll never share the stage again just you and me
And I know that it will all be ok when I’m not living just to wait for things to be like yesterday
Back then it was to much for me to handle but I learned
That if your pain keeps you in chains just don’t dismantle what’s left of you
You got enough to get you through
You know when you died a part of me died too
You got enough to get you through
Day two words spoke with you left me thinking what the fuck should I do

THE GREATEST COMEBACK OF ALL TIME
Well i’m looking for some kind of anchor, someone to stand taller than me, to pull me up through these falling leaves. i’ve already got so much anger swelling up inside of me. i wasn’t looking to closely for danger and i didn’t wind up where i wanted to be. you always said,“Reach for the stars, ” but I could never see that far. And what’s the point if this is all you are. so let go of all the things holding you down, and you back, or you might think that you’re under attack but no – we let it go. well i’m looking for some kind of anchor, someone to stand taller than me, to pull me up through these leaves. and now here we are – where we are right now is where we found
ourselves. don’t ever say that. nothing is too far away.

Stand Tall
I’ve gone and lost my sense of self right out the door
And back down on the floor again
I’m just glad that I’ve got my friends to stand at my back when I need them
I’ve got to quit beating myself up (over this)
Over things out of my control (it’s out of my hands)
I’m finally at the point where I’ve got nothing left to lose
And I’ve got nothing more to prove
So let’s set this night off right and stay looking up
Overcome these tough times and never give up
I’m so glad I’ve got my friends to stand at my back when I need them
I’ve got to quit beating myself up (over this)
Over things out of my control (it’s out of my hands)
I’m finally at the point where I’ve got nothing left to lose
And I’ve got nothing more to prove
Well I got my friends when I need them
(WE GOT OUR FRIENDS TO STAND AT OUR BACKS)
I’ve gone and lost my sense of self right out the door
And back down on the floor again
I’ve got splinters running through my face and fingers
From picking myself up through all this shit
I’ve got to quit beating myself up (over this)
Over things out of my control (it’s out of my hands)
I’m finally at the point where I’ve got nothing left to lose
And I’ve got nothing more to prove
So let’s set this night off right and stay looking up
Overcome these tough times and never give up
I’ve gone and lost myself again
