[Talls] God damn, you know how to make a man Feel like a motherfucking man Even though I've never fired a gun Let alone even held one in the palm of my hand Here I stand, on the edge of the Grand Canyon Ready to jump, with two packs attached to my back Pull that parachute latch and float up Then cut the strap of the bag that's closed shut And filled to the max with my past And watch it crash below The old me know is just a cloud of smoke Who really knows where this might go But it would be that cosmic joke If we both just dipped our big toes in the ocean Cause it's way to cold to go and jump in Together we could swim good, swim good, swim good I'm hoping this can of Sculpin Will help me open up enough To let you know where I'm at and where I plan on going Our overhead compartments have been stashed with Nothing but baggage And all my friends think that I think too much but The last thing I want is to give out my time Get too invested then damaged Never stray from myself to get closer to someone else [Chorus] It's that feel good moment (Sunshine) It feels good don't it (All right) I just want to take it and own it, then clone it And save it for a rainy day (Hey) It's that feel good moment (Ok) It feels good don't it (Today) [Talls] You know the type right The one who trips over their own luggage so often They're always in the middle of some kind of problem (problem) Drama always haunts em' Beautiful as a blossom in autumn As much as you relay that they're awesome The same constant to play possum But that energy kept attracting these new boys Who seem to enjoy, saving her from those old boys But oh boy, these dudes got issues too The pattern ensues cause she believes that Emotional baggage she carries around Can't be left behind and you need that Weighing you down like a salty bag of chips Or a ton of bricks Even on a gorgeous summers day Most men might be chased away Maybe they're to weak to hold that weight You've been mistreated Which distracted you from what you needed To feel loved and appreciated But geez for Pete's sake Let go of those worn handles made of leather And find someone to unpack it with together [Chorus] It's that feel good moment (Sunshine) It feels good don't it (All right) I just want to take it and own it, then clone it And save it for a rainy day (Hey) It's that feel good moment (Ok) It feels good don't it (Today) [Outro] Sunshine All right Rainy day (Hey) Ok Today

[Intro] One, two, one, two I've been drinkin', how bout you? [Jared Armijo-Wardle] I think I've discovered Forever at the bottom Of this well worn tumbler But I'm always halfway to zero [Talls] Another empty, 750ml bottle of that scotch whiskey With enough beer jugs piled high up in the kitchen I could melt em' all down Build a glass house for me to go sit in I'm not gonna front, it's been a rough twelve months I've stayed numbed up, with each sip from the cup As the front door shuts, it's goodbye to the world Pour another refill, then goodnight, sleep tight, yea right Can I get a do-over? Cause the last three-six-five I've probably only spent like, two of those sober And those two were just cause I was too fuckin' hungover My studio apartment and I have one thing in common We're both starting to feel smaller This abuse I won't condone it Just like my dream house, wish i could own it [Jared Armijo-Wardle] I think I've discovered Forever at the bottom Of this well worn tumbler But I'm always halfway to zero [Talls] I made it home from the grind, I'm trying to switch the style up Thrown on running shoes, lift those weights Better options on my plate Salmon, broccoli, a cut of lean steak A brand new me feeling great But then 9pm hits And sober me slides right past the sink To the fridge and pours a drink After two weeks, I stopped working out Went right back to that same routine How come I can never stick with something long enough To see that bright green pasture Feels like I've been stuck up in the bleachers With my face featured on a big screen plastered Laughing at current me's meager attempts To get it together Whatever I don't do won't hurt me Or is it, whatever I don't know will eventually snowball and grow Until it's way too big to control, like that [Jared Armijo-Wardle] I think I've discovered Forever at the bottom Of this well worn tumbler But I'm always halfway to zero [Talls] Liquor and music seem to complement one another To the point, I would never cheat on either one So I bring both to the function I'm in love with each of em', even though they've got loaded guns Pointed directly at my epitaph This rap is the only thing that I'm good at I'm just tired of taking a stab When I need to cut this whole fucking thing in half Yes I write this cause this is all that I have The passion has never left, but what has Is that idea that I'm never gonna reach or be heard By more than the same 200 fans That use to eat at me every night I don't want my bark to be worse than my bite I want my bite to be felt by the ones who can relate to the escape As I set down this drink in my hand [Outro x4] Oh river The smoke and mirrors We're all swimming, all swimming, we're swimming

[DJ GarGar] Tick, tock Stop White knuckle grip on lock Time is steady runnin’ and steady gunnin’ Ready or not So, I tell that bitch to slow down Trying to get another go ‘round knowing what I know now But, when I stop and smell the roses, they’re a thorn in my side Trying to stand in life’s way, but she keeps passing me by And I’m slowing down while she’s speeding up by the minute Acting like my era’s going to be infinite And no, I don’t want to grow up I’m a Toys ‘R Us kid Another shot at the bar, another puff of the cig Another couple hours pondering the woulda, coulda, shoulda done Feeling invincible "Father Time is undefeated, So" I’m stuck in the past and future, ignoring my flaws I know the present is a gift, but I don’t believe in Santa Claus As I slowly fade to black There goes another 42 seconds I can never get back Time it [Lauren Torres] And here we go again Another day when time's just passing me by (passing me by) And I want to slow down and make now the time that I'm living in But your life's only worth something if it comes with accomplishments So, I know I gotta move forward and keep looking onward Graduated to the future from mistakes in my past Hoping that I don't make those mistakes again But I know I'm gonna wake up one day To see that this world has changed I hope that it's not too late to rewind, change my ways We make decisions based on what other people say And I don't want to live this way I don't want it all to change We're not the same once life gets in the way [Talls] We're livin' in fast times I'm probably past prime With each line that turns into a rhyme scheme Then turns into a song, then an album release Always has me, thinking it could be, way more better Way more clever Am I too predictable like San Diego weather? I'm trying to take advantage of each new unique experience Cause when we go to the same place and do the same things We don't make those distinct memories It's all relative Man as a kid, everything appeared so big And time moved slow Fast forward to adult state of livin' We're all given a permanent check list of tasks to complete But as soon as you check one off Another three get added to the sheet Trying to keep our cups filled The same conversation, I can't believe it's already May And I haven't accomplished anything or changed The situation I'm in I'm feeling out of place Another friend engaged Another friend having kids Another friends career taking off like the theory That we're all just slaves To the privately owned banks Still on the search for the truth Cause every other night I stay up late Just thinking this through [Lauren Torres] And here we go again Another day when time's just passing me by (passing me by) And I want to slow down and make now the time that I'm living in But your life's only worth something if it comes with accomplishments So, I know I gotta move forward and keep looking onward Graduated to the future from mistakes in my past Hoping that I don't make those mistakes again But I know I'm gonna wake up one day To see that this world has changed I hope that it's not too late to rewind, change my ways We make decisions based on what other people say And I don't want to live this way I don't want it all to change But life gets in the way

[Talls] Now what's the purpose? On a constant search below the surface I'm living the dream And I don't mean a certain lifestyle That most try to achieve The mind never sleeps And none of us chose to be A piece to the puzzle I'm still puzzled by the piece that they chose for me In this game of life, right When I was young I didn't have the opportunity To choose my beliefs Or even the name that I keep Until we turn back into dust and placed out to sea Just know when that days comes I was finally happy and content with who I really was, cause Up until this point that I'm writing this here on this beach I spent my whole life pretending to be Something I wasn't just to please others Just to be good enough for someone else and their mother [Tim Atlas] Say goodbye to the life we were falling for Under the sky full of lights we were chasing after Say hello to this brand new beautiful life It's time we go, bring us home [Talls] I stayed hidden with that mask on and observed Never broke the character I created Stay sedated, hated the inner and never fixed the cracks On the face behind the mask and beneath that Lies the bare naked skull attached to the spine Still trying to get that backbone of an eel To turn into a backbone made of steel That confidence and courage has been missing As our vinyl spins It's vital that the cycle of survival is dialed in When the arrival of the final moment begins No denial of sin Even though I never opened the bible and read its contents That mirror that welcomes me back home When I thought I was alone is becoming more clear As the condensation evaporates My life is now an open book and chapter 8 will elaborate [Tim Atlas] Say goodbye to the life we were falling for Under the sky full of lights we were chasing after Say hello to this brand new beautiful life It's time we go, bring us home [Outro} Now that's beautiful I'm still human though Now that's beautiful So welcome to my funeral

[Intro] Now thank you very much for your time Cause you'll never, never get that back, back [Talls] Hey yo, I see it everyday, uh, daddy's away One, two, three weeks, for the pay Sole provider, business merger, blue toother Missed his sons first little league hit The ball was knocked all the way to the center field wall Parents in the bleachers cheering He was stuck on that conference call He'll never get that moment in time back To make matters even worse, that sale fell face flat Now back to his room Left the hotel bar And all those other half-dead business suits Money in the bank, college fund saved House in the gated suburbs of Whitefish Bay This seems like the dream don't it? 158 days away from home, every year on a plane Another city, you would think he would trade Half that salary For half that time back To spend with his family and raise his son into a man That's the balance in life, time-money, opposite and Like freedom and security, they don't go hand in hand So he conjured up the plan, told his boss that he's out Sold the house, moved to a more modest abode Took a job where he could work half his time from home Took his son to the batting cage Helped him with his swing Get ready for the championship game, time over money [Chorus] Nah, time isn't money We all hop on that hamster wheel and start running, running Time isn't money We can always make more of it Can never buy back the time Now thank you very much for your time Cause you'll never get that back, back [Talls] My mom and pops out in Arizona melting away Sisters in Colorado about to graduate I'll work and I'll save every penny earned Just so we can be together for one day Odd jobs, knuckles to the bones bruisin' Always left me with stress free time for my music This is the only career path I've paved And most eggs here are cracked But I still have one left that hasn't hatched I'm really trying to raise it right Cause this here doesn't translate well on a resume Never got in this for the monetary gain or fame Just the process of writing everyday Recording the next, then performing on stage Pretty much sums up my whole last decade And every job I've ever held, go ahead ask my boss If I ever came in on my day off Never stayed for overtime pay Cause it's time over money, time over money And that times a precious thing to waste The hole that I've dug, I won't let this be my grave The ladder that you lowered in I'm using To try to find my balance to escape This hamster wheel cage and I'm just here to make memories So you can keep everything else That you're trying to sell to me Time over money [Chorus] Nah, time isn't money We all hop on that hamster wheel and start running, running Time isn't money We can always make more of it Can never buy back the time Now thank you very much for your time Cause you'll never get that back, back [Kenneth William Joseph] Michael William, this is Kenneth William Calling to check in with you See how everything is going If you're working hard, making tons of money So, give me a call Love ya, later

[Talls] You're so worth it and just so perfect for me Now that's a selfish way to think See I need someone this tall, this smart, this blonde Camouflage all my weaknesses then I'll be Truly happy with myself Need nothing more in life You're that missing puzzle piece I've been looking for tonight And that's dangerously close to insanity Cause love at first sight has a short shelf life If you notice someone's flaws and you're displeased That's just a reflection of your own insecurities What we need is not someone to complete us But someone who will complement and believe in Every little dream that we have drawn up Since we were young enough to read Cause that's the very little thing that makes us unique And I would think someone perfect would be boring as shit So show me your scar And tell me the story that goes along with it And you always trip when you run to fast Or snort to loud when you laugh Is that perfect? Naw, cause perfect doesn't exist So show me that scar And tell me the story that goes along with it [Chorus x2] See I don't think a perfect soulmate exists Cause the word perfect is just a myth And where I find your true beauty lives Is in your birth mark, flaws and your blemishes [Dalton] From fairy tales to wishing wells It's all story book to me More like mission failed, to the ship has sailed It's true reality [DayDay] You're so worth it and just so perfect for me Yea and I knew it from the start Cause from the first minute that I met ya You made me feel so special Didn't really matter what anybody else said Just knew I had to get ya You were out of my league My insecurities did not help Old and bald with a natural coat That's the way that I felt You had your issues too Everybody got a little bit of something they struggle with Self-consciousness in todays girls Take mine and then double it We were friends first ( Love next ) First couple fights ( Gut check ) But if you don't fight then you don't care Ain't no make-up sex Wanna do for you what you do for me Anything from here to the sun Could tell you about my flaws now But you make me feel like I don't have none Were not Ken doll, were not Barbie That perfect shit can be blasé And both halves of your hour glass You know you looking at what God made And them bean poles in the magazines Is the last thing that I want I love you baby no matter what Go ahead just flaunt [Chorus x2] See I don't think a perfect soulmate exists Cause the word perfect is just a myth And where I find your true beauty lives Is in your birth mark, flaws and your blemishes

[Talls] 3am, wide awake again Staring at that same damn ceiling tile I swear I can see your face carved in it Looking back at me with a crooked smile I'm scarred, I admit it See the bridge we had use to be intact But as soon as you took one foot off it collapsed I thought the foundation we had built Could withstand any type of friction From the long distance To the spilt milk in the kitchen To the everyday struggle of love The trouble is the rubble has me pinned Still looking for us On the side of the road Holding this damn fishing pole Trying to hook a good memory (memory) That's not a good look Is what you keep telling me (telling me) And I agree All I want is a decent nights sleep Is that too much to ask for? I went a bought a plane ticket and a passport To get up out the country Get up out my bed, get up out my box Get up out my same spot Where I lay my head and try to put to rest us In the present and the past tense Mind eraser got to cater to my inner self Find a way to take her and add an e to the end of it I'm still HERE, exactly where I should be I don't care if you live happily ever after, me [Chorus] And on and on And on and on And on and on we go And on and on And on and on And on and on we go [DJ GarGar] Here we go, again I swear life is pushing me back on purpose Going through the day mumbling under-the-breath curses Man, I should have known where this was going right from the start It's all got me grasping for roots as things fall apart It's the same shit, same day Fading to gray Sometimes I wonder if it's going to be alright, okay I'm trying to keep trucking along Trying to find a switch to flip Trying to find an opportunity for me to flip the script This rough patch is becoming a rough life And I'm thinking I just might be down and out Just in time to say, "Good night." I feel like falling to the floor Because I can't take this anymore Repeating in my mind, I'm wondering, "What am I fighting for?" I'm prepping all my goodbyes Between the groans and sighs Gave up because the turning point never materialized Felt like I was living these lies Start riding off into the sunrise But, then I look into my baby's eyes And I keep pushing on and on [Chorus] On and on And on and on And on and on we go And on and on And on and on And on and on we go

[Chorus] Nice to meet you, so what do you do? Don't let them define who we are By our job title, it's true, we all have to make a living But it's all too common for us to Derive our value as a person Based on the work we do, our purpose in life isn't To make a paycheck, so yes, I have many passions And all you ask is, what do you do? [Talls] So the next time you meet someone new Ask them, what's your passion? Sometimes we have a really hard time with that question Cause we're so use to the typical We measure success by a title And happiness by the salary we bring home Our day job is just one of the hats we put on It just happens to be the one that gets the most wear Day in, day out Now lets break down the truth I just met this girl I'm so attracted too And she's attracted to me We have so much in common From the music we dig Our upbringing and the food we enjoy to eat So she goes home and lets her friends know About her night with Michael And how he broke the cycle Of being attracted to every dead beat And doesn't give a shit about me type dude Her friends first response is, "Oh, so what does he do?" Now really how cool can she make me sound He's got three part-time jobs, but music is his thing And he's really trying to make that his dream right now [Chorus] Nice to meet you, so what do you do? Don't let them define who we are By our job title, it's true, we all have to make a living But it's all too common for us to Derive our value as a person Based on the work we do, our purpose in life isn't To make a paycheck, so yes, I have many passions And all you ask is, what do you do? [Talls] We define ourselves by what we do Rather than who we are That's two worlds apart So when life happens like losing that job It can have detrimental results Feeling purposeless lost and depressed Even a source of shame and embarrassment And to some the same effect as The birth of a child or death of a spouse When you put every single minute of your time Building up that house And one day it all burns down You sit there and wonder, what do I have left now? What about that desire to inspire The content of the character you are Is bigger than the duties your job hired Those salaries and titles can easily fade away But the integrity you display's Forever, forever, forever Be proud of those achievements As a parent, a person, a student, a brother, a friend And the thoughts that you believe in I'm the senior vice president, yea, of who really gives a shit! So the next time someone asks what you do Tell them you're passionate about photography, writing, rock climbing, music, helping others and cooking food

[Talls] Living in the shade of gray Life's not black / white Yes / no, wrong / right I'm stuck in between, two extremes Which complicates everything Does that mean that I don't believe in anything, no It just means life's not an open road It twists, it winds, it folds But then will spit you right out To where you were hoping for Now is this a dream or reality? Now does it have to be, one or another Or can I just breathe and live free undercover Relaxed not stressed with an open mind Cause there's no one book To tell you how your life's gonna unfold I just listen to all sides Make up my own mind To me this is peace, yea To me this is peace and where I wanna be Living in the shade of gray [Pre-Chorus x 2] It's ok to me It's ok to be Stuck in between Living in the Shade of gray [Dalton] Up and down, left and right We all must live inside, inside that plus sign [Talls] I don't need to pick a favorite team I'm a fan of the sport, fan of the dream Opposite of closed rigid Now thank you very much For this fear based life that we're all given More open to accept livin' Closer to the edge willin' to jump So who's spillin' the truth And who am I to say what you believe in isn't true Celebrate peoples differences That's how I was raised, for what's it's worth Some may hate this verse, a few might love it But most will skip it or never hear it Most will skip it or never hear it If all you do is live in a black or white mentality It means you're only happy when it goes your way Cause the only other option is opposite to yours We can compromise and still be happy in the gray [Pre-Chorus x 2] It's ok to me It's ok to be Stuck in between Living in the Shade of gray [Dalton] Up and down, left and right We all must live inside, inside that plus sign

[Chorus x2] The same thoughts in my head stay Then like clouds in the sky, they dissolve and float away I'm just trying to find that beautiful state, the beautiful state The self doubt in my mind grows And I keep that inside, so know one ever knows I'm just trying to find that beautiful state And I ain't talking about a physical place [Talls] I'm standing outside my own front door knocking Like get the fuck out here It's a beautiful day and all you do is sleep it away Mr. woe is me, like what's your problem You think nothing ever goes your way Anxiety you create then self medicate Is probably not your best option, it's not uncommon Everybody feels self doubt You just seem to be the master at hiding it from others Try to find that new and improved view And if you fail, man that's cool Cause in the end that experience will only humble you Hop in your car, fill up the tank and just drive Take a different road through your own town Just know that your family and friends Will pick you up if you ever break down The back and forth process Don't get caught up too much with making that decision Naw, your first reaction's probably going to be your best Since it comes from a place of intuition Would you rather do nothing and not get judged Or do something and risk those critics coming for blood Trying to tear you apart You just have to let go of everyone else's opinions Otherwise you'll find yourself in a constant state of self doubt And that state is a fucked up place that you know all about Cause you've been checked in there for too many days now Give thanks to ones who paved roads To learn the ropes from, run away from the ones Who drag you down and aim for the planets and stars Now that's a good place to start [Chorus x2] The same thoughts in my head stay Then like clouds in the sky, they dissolve and float away I'm just trying to find that beautiful state, the beautiful state The self doubt in my mind grows And I keep that inside, so know one ever knows I'm just trying to find that beautiful state And I ain't talking about a physical place
