All You Need Is Love Lyrics – Brandi Carlile
There's nothing you can do that can't be done
Nothing you can sing that can't be sung
Nothing you can say, but you can learn how to play the game
It's easy
Nothing you can make that can't be made
No-one you can save that can't be saved
Nothing you can do, but you can learn how to be you in time
It's easy
All you need is love
All you need is love
All you need is love, love
Love is all you need
Lo-ove, love
Love, love, love
Love, love, love
All you need is love
All you need is love
All you need is love, love
Love is all you need
Nothing you can know that isn't known
Nothing you can see that isn't shown
There's nowhere you can be that isn't where you're meant to be
It's easy
All you need is love
All you need is love
All you need is love, love
Love is all you need
Nothing you can sing that can't be sung
Nothing you can say, but you can learn how to play the game
It's easy
Nothing you can make that can't be made
No-one you can save that can't be saved
Nothing you can do, but you can learn how to be you in time
It's easy
All you need is love
All you need is love
All you need is love, love
Love is all you need
Lo-ove, love
Love, love, love
Love, love, love
All you need is love
All you need is love
All you need is love, love
Love is all you need
Nothing you can know that isn't known
Nothing you can see that isn't shown
There's nowhere you can be that isn't where you're meant to be
It's easy
All you need is love
All you need is love
All you need is love, love
Love is all you need
Love Songs Lyrics – Brandi Carlile
I can never write a love song
I can never write a blue song
When I'm in love I am a lover
And I have always had the blues
I am afraid that no one sees me
What will they say when I am gone
It occurs to me I think I miss you
I think I've missed you all along
Out of the corner of my eye (out of the corner of my eye)
Not sure if I should think these things of you
Is it the wrong place at the wrong time
I think it's just my turn to lose
Thoughts of you could give me smile lines
I laugh myself to sleep because I knew (I knew)
We were talking ‘bout a fine line
It depends on who you're talking to
If it's any consolation
The blues have always had me too
And if I ever write a love song
I think I'll write it about you
I can never write a blue song
When I'm in love I am a lover
And I have always had the blues
I am afraid that no one sees me
What will they say when I am gone
It occurs to me I think I miss you
I think I've missed you all along
Out of the corner of my eye (out of the corner of my eye)
Not sure if I should think these things of you
Is it the wrong place at the wrong time
I think it's just my turn to lose
Thoughts of you could give me smile lines
I laugh myself to sleep because I knew (I knew)
We were talking ‘bout a fine line
It depends on who you're talking to
If it's any consolation
The blues have always had me too
And if I ever write a love song
I think I'll write it about you
Way To You Lyrics – Brandi Carlile
Way back when, when the days were young
We had our fun
Never cared much about being cool
Or growing old to play the old fool
Part of your life you spend paying your dues
Walking the miles and singing the blues
If I'm born into a pair of ramblin' shoes
I'll tell you what I'll do
I'll take my wings with a heart that's true
And find the way to you
Part of your life you spend paying your dues
Walking the miles in your old man shoes
When I finally find the way to shake loose
I'll tell you what I'll do
Hang my worry on a golden noose
And find the way to you
When we're all old and withering sages
Talkin' 'bout what might have been
Like a missing line or torn out pages
We're gonna miss you then
Walking the miles, singing the blues
Learning to love what god gives to you
If he gave me rockets on the bottom of my shoes
I tell you what I'd do
I'd burn my sole where the sun was new
And find the way
The way to you
We had our fun
Never cared much about being cool
Or growing old to play the old fool
Part of your life you spend paying your dues
Walking the miles and singing the blues
If I'm born into a pair of ramblin' shoes
I'll tell you what I'll do
I'll take my wings with a heart that's true
And find the way to you
Part of your life you spend paying your dues
Walking the miles in your old man shoes
When I finally find the way to shake loose
I'll tell you what I'll do
Hang my worry on a golden noose
And find the way to you
When we're all old and withering sages
Talkin' 'bout what might have been
Like a missing line or torn out pages
We're gonna miss you then
Walking the miles, singing the blues
Learning to love what god gives to you
If he gave me rockets on the bottom of my shoes
I tell you what I'd do
I'd burn my sole where the sun was new
And find the way
The way to you
Us Again Lyrics – Brandi Carlile
Close your eyes and count to three
I'm gonna make you proud of me
not today, but that's alright
we have got a long long time
I've got big plans and you do too
and we've got ways to make them true
when I get old and if I do
I'm gonna get there next to you
And you can count on me
and you can lean on me
and we can throw our dreams to the wind
they'll find us again
With a hand to hold the rail
count the years that we've got left
we've got the world by the tail
oh we just don't know it yet
But you can count on me
and you can lean on me
and we can throw our dreams to the wind
And you can count on me
and you can lean on me
and we can throw our dreams to the wind
they'll find us again
they'll find us again
they'll find us again
I'm gonna make you proud of me
not today, but that's alright
we have got a long long time
I've got big plans and you do too
and we've got ways to make them true
when I get old and if I do
I'm gonna get there next to you
And you can count on me
and you can lean on me
and we can throw our dreams to the wind
they'll find us again
With a hand to hold the rail
count the years that we've got left
we've got the world by the tail
oh we just don't know it yet
But you can count on me
and you can lean on me
and we can throw our dreams to the wind
And you can count on me
and you can lean on me
and we can throw our dreams to the wind
they'll find us again
they'll find us again
they'll find us again
Heaven Lyrics – Brandi Carlile
Oh - thinkin' about all our younger years
There was only you and me
We were young and wild and free
Now nothin' can take you away from me
We've been down that road before
But that's over now
You keep me comin' back for more
Baby you're all that I want
When you're lyin' here in my arms
I'm findin' it hard to believe
We're in heaven
And love is all that I need
And I found it there in your heart
It isn't too hard to see
We're in heaven
Oh - once in your life you find someone
Who will turn your world around
Bring you up when you're feelin' down
Ya - nothin' could change what you mean to me
Oh there's lots that I could say
But just hold me now
Cause our love will light the way
Now nothin' can take you away from me
We've been down that road before
But that's over now
You keep me comin' back for more
Baby you're all that I want
When you're lyin' here in my arms
I'm findin' it hard to believe
We're in heaven
I've been waitin' for so long
For somethin' to arrive
For love to come along
Now our dreams are comin' true
Through the good times and the bad
Ya - I'll be standin' there by you
There was only you and me
We were young and wild and free
Now nothin' can take you away from me
We've been down that road before
But that's over now
You keep me comin' back for more
Baby you're all that I want
When you're lyin' here in my arms
I'm findin' it hard to believe
We're in heaven
And love is all that I need
And I found it there in your heart
It isn't too hard to see
We're in heaven
Oh - once in your life you find someone
Who will turn your world around
Bring you up when you're feelin' down
Ya - nothin' could change what you mean to me
Oh there's lots that I could say
But just hold me now
Cause our love will light the way
Now nothin' can take you away from me
We've been down that road before
But that's over now
You keep me comin' back for more
Baby you're all that I want
When you're lyin' here in my arms
I'm findin' it hard to believe
We're in heaven
I've been waitin' for so long
For somethin' to arrive
For love to come along
Now our dreams are comin' true
Through the good times and the bad
Ya - I'll be standin' there by you
Looking Out Lyrics – Brandi Carlile
I went out looking for the answers and never left my town.
I'm no good at understanding, but I'm good at standing ground.
And when I asked a corner preacher I couldn't hear him for my
youth. Some people get religion some people get the truth. I
never get the truth, I never get the truth.
I know the darkness pulls on you. And it's just a point of view
When you're outside looking in you belong to someone and when
you feel like giving in and the coming of the end, like your
heart can break in two, someone loves you.
I lay this suitcase on my chest so I can feel somebody's weight.
And I lay you to rest just to feel a give and take?
I got a new interpretation and it's a better point of view, you
were looking for a landslide I was looking out for you, I was
looking out for you, someone's looking out for you
I know the darkness pulls on you. And it's just a point of view
When you're outside looking in you belong to someone and when
you feel like giving in and the coming of the end, like your
heart can break in two, someone loves you.
I am afraid of crossing lines. I am afraid of flying blind.
Afraid of inquiring minds. Afraid of being left behind.
I close my eyes I think of you, I take a step I think of you,
I catch my breath I think of you, I cannot rest I think of you
My one and only wrecking ball, and you're crashing through my
walls. When you're outside looking in you belong to someone and
when you feel like giving in and the coming of the end, like
your heart could break in two, someone loves you.
I'm no good at understanding, but I'm good at standing ground.
And when I asked a corner preacher I couldn't hear him for my
youth. Some people get religion some people get the truth. I
never get the truth, I never get the truth.
I know the darkness pulls on you. And it's just a point of view
When you're outside looking in you belong to someone and when
you feel like giving in and the coming of the end, like your
heart can break in two, someone loves you.
I lay this suitcase on my chest so I can feel somebody's weight.
And I lay you to rest just to feel a give and take?
I got a new interpretation and it's a better point of view, you
were looking for a landslide I was looking out for you, I was
looking out for you, someone's looking out for you
I know the darkness pulls on you. And it's just a point of view
When you're outside looking in you belong to someone and when
you feel like giving in and the coming of the end, like your
heart can break in two, someone loves you.
I am afraid of crossing lines. I am afraid of flying blind.
Afraid of inquiring minds. Afraid of being left behind.
I close my eyes I think of you, I take a step I think of you,
I catch my breath I think of you, I cannot rest I think of you
My one and only wrecking ball, and you're crashing through my
walls. When you're outside looking in you belong to someone and
when you feel like giving in and the coming of the end, like
your heart could break in two, someone loves you.
Dying Day Lyrics – Brandi Carlile
I left home a long long time ago
In a tin can for the road
With a suitcase and some songs
Chasing miles through the night time
Making tracks with no time for looking back
To the place where I belong
How these days grow long
But I'm on my way back home
It's been hard to be away
How I miss you and I just want to kiss you
And I'm gonna love you till my dying day
How these days grow long
When your sad you know I wish I could be there
To make your sorrows disappear
And set your troubles free
It's not fair for me to be this far from you
But I promise to stay true, wherever I might be
Time keeps burning
The wheels keep on turning
Sometimes I feel I'm wasting my days
How I miss you and I just want to kiss you
And I'm gonna love you till my dying day
How these days grow long
Time keeps burning on
How these days grow long
Now I'm lost in a sea of sunken dreams
While the sound of drunken screams echos in the night
But I know all of this will come to pass
And I'll be with you at last forever by your side
How these days grow long
But I'm on my way back home
It's been hard to be away
How I miss you and I just want to kiss you
And I'm gonna love you till my dying day
Time keeps burning
The wheels keep on turning
Sometimes I feel I'm wasting my days
How I miss you and I just want to kiss you
And I'm gonna love you till my dying day
How these days grow long
Time keeps burning on
How these days grow long
In a tin can for the road
With a suitcase and some songs
Chasing miles through the night time
Making tracks with no time for looking back
To the place where I belong
How these days grow long
But I'm on my way back home
It's been hard to be away
How I miss you and I just want to kiss you
And I'm gonna love you till my dying day
How these days grow long
When your sad you know I wish I could be there
To make your sorrows disappear
And set your troubles free
It's not fair for me to be this far from you
But I promise to stay true, wherever I might be
Time keeps burning
The wheels keep on turning
Sometimes I feel I'm wasting my days
How I miss you and I just want to kiss you
And I'm gonna love you till my dying day
How these days grow long
Time keeps burning on
How these days grow long
Now I'm lost in a sea of sunken dreams
While the sound of drunken screams echos in the night
But I know all of this will come to pass
And I'll be with you at last forever by your side
How these days grow long
But I'm on my way back home
It's been hard to be away
How I miss you and I just want to kiss you
And I'm gonna love you till my dying day
Time keeps burning
The wheels keep on turning
Sometimes I feel I'm wasting my days
How I miss you and I just want to kiss you
And I'm gonna love you till my dying day
How these days grow long
Time keeps burning on
How these days grow long
Pride And Joy Lyrics – Brandi Carlile
Time of day I can't recall,
The kind of thing that takes its toll.
Over years and over time,
Over smiles and over wine.
All in all it wasn't bad,
All in all it wasn't good,
But I still care.
That's the problem with the days
They're never long enough to say,
What it is you never said,
All the books you never read.
I throw myself into the wind
Hoping somebody might pick me up
And carry me again.
Where are you now?
Do you let me down?
Do you make me grieve for you?
Do I make you proud?
Do you get me now?
Am I your pride and joy?
I believe this to be true
There’s nothing sacred, nothing new.
No one tells you when its time.
There are no warnings, only signs.
Then you know that you're alone,
You're not a child anymore,
But you're still scared.
All your mountains turn to rocks.
All your oceans turn to drops.
They are nothing like you thought;
You can't be something you are not.
Life is not a looking glass.
Don't get tangled in your past,
Like I am learning not to.
Where are you now?
Do you let me down?
Do you make me grieve for you?
Do I make you proud?
Do you get me now?
Am I your pride and joy?
The kind of thing that takes its toll.
Over years and over time,
Over smiles and over wine.
All in all it wasn't bad,
All in all it wasn't good,
But I still care.
That's the problem with the days
They're never long enough to say,
What it is you never said,
All the books you never read.
I throw myself into the wind
Hoping somebody might pick me up
And carry me again.
Where are you now?
Do you let me down?
Do you make me grieve for you?
Do I make you proud?
Do you get me now?
Am I your pride and joy?
I believe this to be true
There’s nothing sacred, nothing new.
No one tells you when its time.
There are no warnings, only signs.
Then you know that you're alone,
You're not a child anymore,
But you're still scared.
All your mountains turn to rocks.
All your oceans turn to drops.
They are nothing like you thought;
You can't be something you are not.
Life is not a looking glass.
Don't get tangled in your past,
Like I am learning not to.
Where are you now?
Do you let me down?
Do you make me grieve for you?
Do I make you proud?
Do you get me now?
Am I your pride and joy?
Dreams Lyrics – Brandi Carlile
Dreams, I have dreams
When I'm awake when I'm asleep
And you, you are in my dreams
You're underneath my skin,
How am I so weak
And now in my dreams,
I can feel the way, I can just come clean
I keep it to myself, I know what it means
I can't have you, but I have dreams
How long, can you hold your breath?
Can you count to ten, can you let it pass?
Keep, can you keep it in?
Keep it behind latches, can you make it last?
And now in my dreams,
I can feel the way, I can just come clean
I keep it to myself, I know what it means
I can't have you, but I have dreams
Oh, and I have dreams, I have dreams
Mind, can you read my mind?
Has it come undone, am I showing signs?
And now, in my dreams
I can feel the way, I can just come clean
I keep it to myself, I know what it means
I can't have you, but I have dreams
I have dreams, I have, I have, I have dreams
When I'm awake when I'm asleep
And you, you are in my dreams
You're underneath my skin,
How am I so weak
And now in my dreams,
I can feel the way, I can just come clean
I keep it to myself, I know what it means
I can't have you, but I have dreams
How long, can you hold your breath?
Can you count to ten, can you let it pass?
Keep, can you keep it in?
Keep it behind latches, can you make it last?
And now in my dreams,
I can feel the way, I can just come clean
I keep it to myself, I know what it means
I can't have you, but I have dreams
Oh, and I have dreams, I have dreams
Mind, can you read my mind?
Has it come undone, am I showing signs?
And now, in my dreams
I can feel the way, I can just come clean
I keep it to myself, I know what it means
I can't have you, but I have dreams
I have dreams, I have, I have, I have dreams
That Year Lyrics – Brandi Carlile
I must have been sleeping
I must have been drinking
I haven't been dreaming about you for years
There was a sharp turn and a sunburn
I was too cool for high school that year
It must have been New Years
No one invited you
You took things too far
But I miss you
And your antics
You were lonesome
And blue eyed
And so special to us
You should have taken a long break
Instead of a long drop from a high place
Ten years I never spoke your name
Now it feels good to say it
You're my friend again
He said he forgave you
I said I hated you
He was the bigger man
I was sixteen
All the innocence
It took for
You to finally make the year book
That year
That year
You should have taken a long break
Instead of a long drop
Instead of a leap of faith
Ten years I never spoke your name
Now it feels good to say that
You're my friend again
You're my friend again
I was angry
I was a Baptist
I was a daughter
I was wrong
I must have been drinking
I haven't been dreaming about you for years
There was a sharp turn and a sunburn
I was too cool for high school that year
It must have been New Years
No one invited you
You took things too far
But I miss you
And your antics
You were lonesome
And blue eyed
And so special to us
You should have taken a long break
Instead of a long drop from a high place
Ten years I never spoke your name
Now it feels good to say it
You're my friend again
He said he forgave you
I said I hated you
He was the bigger man
I was sixteen
All the innocence
It took for
You to finally make the year book
That year
That year
You should have taken a long break
Instead of a long drop
Instead of a leap of faith
Ten years I never spoke your name
Now it feels good to say that
You're my friend again
You're my friend again
I was angry
I was a Baptist
I was a daughter
I was wrong
Caroline Lyrics – Brandi Carlile
I woke up long after dawn
20 years had come and gone
I know when it changed for me
A day in June you came to me
I've seen through someone else's eyes
With nothin' on the other side
Every motel, every town
Pieces scattered all around
Promises that I can't be
Someone's heart that I can't keep
Days so long I couldn't speak
Roads so rocky I can't sleep
But I've seen things so beautiful
All around this broken world
That pale in comparison to you
Caroline I'm on my way back home to you
Can't imagine what I'm goin' through
without you by my side
It's been a long long time
Oh won't you say a prayer for me
I hope you will remember me
You're always on my mind
I have seen the canyon lands
Crooked lines like in your hands
You'd swear the earth was split in two
I wouldn't lie I promise you
That I have seen it, you will too
You could not believe if not for
photographs I took for you, Caroline
They've built towers to the sky
It hurts sometimes to watch them try
They run themselves into the ground
But I know you will love them
and their city lights and city sounds
There's beauty in the struggle
Anytime I feel it get me down
I see you smiling
Caroline, I'm on my way back home to you
Can't imagine what I'm goin' through
Without you by my side
It's been a long long time
Oh won't you say a prayer for me
I hope you will remember me
You're always on my mind
My Caroline
Now I have seen things in the sky
Stars and lights and birds and I
I've been rocky mountain high
And told them all about you
Because you are still the only thing
That constantly amazes me
I love the road and I've been blessed
But I love you best
Caroline, I'm on my way back home to you
Can't imagine what I'm goin' through
Without you by my side
It's been a long long time
Oh won't you say a prayer for me
I hope you will remember me
You're always on my mind
You were always on my mind
My Caroline
20 years had come and gone
I know when it changed for me
A day in June you came to me
I've seen through someone else's eyes
With nothin' on the other side
Every motel, every town
Pieces scattered all around
Promises that I can't be
Someone's heart that I can't keep
Days so long I couldn't speak
Roads so rocky I can't sleep
But I've seen things so beautiful
All around this broken world
That pale in comparison to you
Caroline I'm on my way back home to you
Can't imagine what I'm goin' through

Before It Breaks Lyrics – Brandi Carlile
Around here, it's the hardest time of year
Waking up, the days are even gone
The collar of my coat
Lord help me, cannot help the cold
The raindrops sting my eyes
I keep them closed.
But I'm feelin' no pain
I'm a little lonely and my quietest friend
Have I the moonlight? Have I let you in?
Say it aint so, say I'm happy again
Say it's over, say I'm dreaming,
Say I'm better than you left me
Say you're sorry, I can take it
Say you'll wait, say you won't
Say you love me, say you don't
I can make my own mistakes
Let it bend before it breaks
I'm all right. Don't I seem to be?
Aren't I swinging on the stars?
Don't I wear them on my sleeve?
When you're looking for a crossroads,
It happens every day
And whichever way you turn,
I'm gonna turn the other way
Say it's over, say I'm dreaming,
Say I'm better than you left me
Say you're sorry, I can take it
Say you'll wait, say you won't
Say you love me, say you don't
I can make my own mistakes
Learn to let it bend before it breaks
Say it's over say I'm dreaming,
Say I'm better than you left me
Say you're sorry, I can take it
Say you'll wait, say you won't
Say you love me, say you don't
I can make my own mistakes
Let it bend before it breaks
Waking up, the days are even gone
The collar of my coat
Lord help me, cannot help the cold
The raindrops sting my eyes
I keep them closed.
But I'm feelin' no pain
I'm a little lonely and my quietest friend
Have I the moonlight? Have I let you in?
Say it aint so, say I'm happy again
Say it's over, say I'm dreaming,
Say I'm better than you left me
Say you're sorry, I can take it
Say you'll wait, say you won't
Say you love me, say you don't
I can make my own mistakes
Let it bend before it breaks
I'm all right. Don't I seem to be?
Aren't I swinging on the stars?
Don't I wear them on my sleeve?
When you're looking for a crossroads,
It happens every day
And whichever way you turn,
I'm gonna turn the other way
Say it's over, say I'm dreaming,
Say I'm better than you left me
Say you're sorry, I can take it
Say you'll wait, say you won't
Say you love me, say you don't
I can make my own mistakes
Learn to let it bend before it breaks
Say it's over say I'm dreaming,
Say I'm better than you left me
Say you're sorry, I can take it
Say you'll wait, say you won't
Say you love me, say you don't
I can make my own mistakes
Let it bend before it breaks
I Will Lyrics – Brandi Carlile
It's not the end of the world, it's not even over
But it will be soon I never learned my lesson
I just changed my tune and no one seems to notice
But you will, you will
It's no big deal
But the last thing I think of when I close my eyes
And the first thing on my mind when I arise
It is a day and you're not really in my life
You can try and you won't find it where you're looking
You can hold it till it's putty in your hands
And you can't break a heart that wasn't even yours to break
You can never be there for me in the end
And I will do the right thing I will, I will, I will
I will, I will, I will
You're not fooling me
I'm not the sort of girl that can't see reason
But it's nothing that a little bit of time won't heal
I know it don't come easy but I love you, I do
Coming clean
Means never closing curtains I just changed my scene
Oh but you know what I mean and I will learn throughout my life
To never believe what will have been
I can try and I wont find it where im looking
I can hold it till it's putty in my hands
You can't break a heart that wasn't even yours to break
You can never be there for me in the end
But I will do the right thing I will, I will, I will
I will, I will, I will
I don't think you ever learned a thing from me
But I'm sure that you want me to learn from you
And you've drawn heavy-handed lines around morality
About yourself and I don't share your point of view
It's about time to let you go and I thought it's time to let you know
And it has to be the one that you'd regret
I have to say that I'm proud to know you
And I'll never be the same because we met
You might not miss this I will, I will, I will
I will, I will, I will
I will, i will, i will
I will, i will, i will
But it will be soon I never learned my lesson
I just changed my tune and no one seems to notice
But you will, you will
It's no big deal
But the last thing I think of when I close my eyes
And the first thing on my mind when I arise
It is a day and you're not really in my life
You can try and you won't find it where you're looking
You can hold it till it's putty in your hands
And you can't break a heart that wasn't even yours to break
You can never be there for me in the end
And I will do the right thing I will, I will, I will
I will, I will, I will
You're not fooling me
I'm not the sort of girl that can't see reason
But it's nothing that a little bit of time won't heal
I know it don't come easy but I love you, I do
Coming clean
Means never closing curtains I just changed my scene
Oh but you know what I mean and I will learn throughout my life
To never believe what will have been
I can try and I wont find it where im looking
I can hold it till it's putty in my hands
You can't break a heart that wasn't even yours to break
You can never be there for me in the end
But I will do the right thing I will, I will, I will
I will, I will, I will
I don't think you ever learned a thing from me
But I'm sure that you want me to learn from you
And you've drawn heavy-handed lines around morality
About yourself and I don't share your point of view
It's about time to let you go and I thought it's time to let you know
And it has to be the one that you'd regret
I have to say that I'm proud to know you
And I'll never be the same because we met
You might not miss this I will, I will, I will
I will, I will, I will

I will, i will, i will
If There Was No You Lyrics – Brandi Carlile
When I see myself I'm seeing you too
As long as I remember and I'm feeling like I knew
That my jokes aren't funny the truth isn't true
If there was no you
If you were my boat in the deep blue sea
I probably sink you down
I know I should have thanked you for carrying me
But for you I would happily drown
Out on your way the darkest night the longest day
I know what to say to make you laugh
And nothing you could do
Could make me turn my back on you
When you're looking for a fight I'm your man
When you need a friend you got my hand
And what i really mean what I'm trying hard to say
Is that I'm counting on you and you got me too
Our secrets aren't safe I'm singing out of tune
If there was no you, if there was no you
Out on your way darkest night the longest day
I know what to say to make you laugh
And nothing you could do
Could make me turn my back on you
When you're looking for a fight I'm your man
When you need a friend you got my hand
When you need a friend you got my hand
You got my hand
As long as I remember and I'm feeling like I knew
That my jokes aren't funny the truth isn't true
If there was no you
If you were my boat in the deep blue sea
I probably sink you down
I know I should have thanked you for carrying me
But for you I would happily drown
Out on your way the darkest night the longest day
I know what to say to make you laugh
And nothing you could do
Could make me turn my back on you
When you're looking for a fight I'm your man
When you need a friend you got my hand
And what i really mean what I'm trying hard to say
Is that I'm counting on you and you got me too
Our secrets aren't safe I'm singing out of tune
If there was no you, if there was no you
Out on your way darkest night the longest day
I know what to say to make you laugh
And nothing you could do
Could make me turn my back on you
When you're looking for a fight I'm your man
When you need a friend you got my hand
When you need a friend you got my hand
You got my hand
Touching The Ground Lyrics – Brandi Carlile
I swear when we touched I saw heaven in your eyes
Jewel studded clouds floating in your skies
Seas of blue and fields of green
Looking like you fell out of someone's dreams
Why do my troubles turn true
Whenever I rest my eyes on you
Why must my heartache be found
Wherever your feet are touching the ground
You could sing an army of angels to sleep
Songs that could cause the devil to weep
You hold me so sweet when the day is done
Enough to make you wonder where we all came from
Why do my troubles turn true
Whenever I rest my eyes on you
Why must my heartache be found
Wherever your feet are touching the ground
My heartache can be found
Wherever your feet are touching the ground
And out of those eyes I'm feeling rain
Bringing me misery and giving me pain
Curse these shackles that you put on me
Blessed be the day when you set me free
Why do my troubles turn true
Whenever I rest my eyes on you
Why must my heartache be found
Wherever your feet are touching the ground
My heartache can be found
Wherever your feet are touching the ground
My heartache can be found
Wherever your feet are touching the ground
Jewel studded clouds floating in your skies
Seas of blue and fields of green
Looking like you fell out of someone's dreams
Why do my troubles turn true
Whenever I rest my eyes on you
Why must my heartache be found
Wherever your feet are touching the ground
You could sing an army of angels to sleep
Songs that could cause the devil to weep
You hold me so sweet when the day is done
Enough to make you wonder where we all came from
Why do my troubles turn true
Whenever I rest my eyes on you
Why must my heartache be found
Wherever your feet are touching the ground
My heartache can be found
Wherever your feet are touching the ground
And out of those eyes I'm feeling rain
Bringing me misery and giving me pain
Curse these shackles that you put on me
Blessed be the day when you set me free
Why do my troubles turn true
Whenever I rest my eyes on you
Why must my heartache be found
Wherever your feet are touching the ground
My heartache can be found
Wherever your feet are touching the ground
My heartache can be found
Wherever your feet are touching the ground
Oh Dear Lyrics – Brandi Carlile
Oh dear out here
Everybody stumbles on fear
Who cares if we’re scared
Everyone is on their own
It’s only you that my heart desires
Only you alone can know my pain
All alone you were sitting there
Folding pages for your paper chain
Now you can cut me free (now you can cut me free)
Forever say goodbye (forever say goodbye)
Or well be holding hands and go on
Together you and I forever(?)
Heart breaks mistakes
Catching up to me in old ways
I know of hard days
Had my share of lonely nights
Its only you that my heart desires
Only you alone can break my fall
I pace the floor and I wish for more
While you were dreaming with your paper dolls
Now you can cut me free (now you can cut me free)
So when it all unfolds (so when it all unfolds)
We’ll be holding hands and go on
Together you and I forever(?)
Poor dear out here
Everybody stumbles on fear
Who cares if you’re scared
Everyone is on their own
Oh dear.
Everybody stumbles on fear
Who cares if we’re scared
Everyone is on their own
It’s only you that my heart desires
Only you alone can know my pain
All alone you were sitting there
Folding pages for your paper chain
Now you can cut me free (now you can cut me free)
Forever say goodbye (forever say goodbye)
Or well be holding hands and go on
Together you and I forever(?)
Heart breaks mistakes
Catching up to me in old ways
I know of hard days
Had my share of lonely nights
Its only you that my heart desires
Only you alone can break my fall
I pace the floor and I wish for more
While you were dreaming with your paper dolls
Now you can cut me free (now you can cut me free)
So when it all unfolds (so when it all unfolds)
We’ll be holding hands and go on
Together you and I forever(?)
Poor dear out here
Everybody stumbles on fear
Who cares if you’re scared
Everyone is on their own
Oh dear.
Late Morning Lullaby Lyrics – Brandi Carlile
As soon as my eyes shut the slide show begins
Yesterday is gone now and panic sets in
With a weight upon my chest
and a ghost upon my back
And the numbing sensation of everything
I lack that leaves me
Dreaming, dreaming, dreaming,
Your real world away
And beautiful, o beautiful bright eyes, lie
Only beautiful, o beautiful bright eyes cry
Singing late morning lullaby
The first sign of morning is gray and alarming
It's so disappointing the day has come so soon
While the rest of the world greets the day and feels new
I will push it away just like I always do, I will be
Dreaming, dreaming, dreaming,
Your real world away
And beautiful, o beautiful bright eyes, lie
Only beautiful, o beautiful bright eyes cry
Singing late morning lullaby
Late morning lullaby
I would darken my window so I can fall asleep
While the critics frown down on the hours
I keep that leave me
Dreaming, dreaming, dreaming,
Your real world away
Yesterday is gone now and panic sets in
With a weight upon my chest
and a ghost upon my back
And the numbing sensation of everything
I lack that leaves me
Dreaming, dreaming, dreaming,
Your real world away
And beautiful, o beautiful bright eyes, lie
Only beautiful, o beautiful bright eyes cry
Singing late morning lullaby
The first sign of morning is gray and alarming
It's so disappointing the day has come so soon
While the rest of the world greets the day and feels new
I will push it away just like I always do, I will be
Dreaming, dreaming, dreaming,
Your real world away
And beautiful, o beautiful bright eyes, lie
Only beautiful, o beautiful bright eyes cry
Singing late morning lullaby
Late morning lullaby
I would darken my window so I can fall asleep
While the critics frown down on the hours
I keep that leave me
Dreaming, dreaming, dreaming,
Your real world away
The Story Lyrics – Brandi Carlile
All of these lines across my face
Tell you the story of who I am
So many stories of where I've been
And how I got to where I am
But these stories don't mean anything
When you've got no one to tell them to
It's true...I was made for you
I climbed across the mountain tops
Swam all across the ocean blue
I crossed all the lines and I broke all the rules
But baby I broke them all for you
Because even when I was flat broke
You made me feel like a million bucks
Yeah you do and I was made for you
You see the smile that's on my mouth
Is hiding the words that don't come out
And all of my friends who think that I'm blessed
They don't know my head is a mess
No, they don't know who I really am
And they don't know what I've been through like you do
And I was made for you...
All of these lines across my face
Tell you the story of who I am
So many stories of where I've been
And how I got to where I am
But these stories don't mean anything
When you've got no one to tell them to
It's true...I was made for you
Oh yes, it's true...
I was made for you.......
Tell you the story of who I am
So many stories of where I've been
And how I got to where I am
But these stories don't mean anything
When you've got no one to tell them to
It's true...I was made for you
I climbed across the mountain tops
Swam all across the ocean blue
I crossed all the lines and I broke all the rules
But baby I broke them all for you
Because even when I was flat broke
You made me feel like a million bucks
Yeah you do and I was made for you
You see the smile that's on my mouth
Is hiding the words that don't come out
And all of my friends who think that I'm blessed
They don't know my head is a mess
No, they don't know who I really am
And they don't know what I've been through like you do
And I was made for you...
All of these lines across my face
Tell you the story of who I am
So many stories of where I've been
And how I got to where I am
But these stories don't mean anything
When you've got no one to tell them to
It's true...I was made for you
Oh yes, it's true...
I was made for you.......
Turpentine Lyrics – Brandi Carlile
I watch you grow away from me in photographs
And memories like spies
And salt betrays my eyes again
I started losing sleep and gaining weight
And wishing I was was ten again
So I could be your friend again
These days we go to waste like wine
That's turned to turpentine
It's six AM and I'm all messed up
I didn't mean to waste your time
So I'll fall back in line
But I'm warning you we're growing up
I heard you found some pretty words to say
You found your little game to play
And there's no one allowed in
Then just when we believe we could be great
Reality it permeates
And conquers from within again
These days we go to waste like wine
That's turned to turpentine
It's six AM and I'm all messed up
I didn't mean to waste your time
So I'll fall back in line
But I'm warning you we're growing up
We're OK I know we're OK
These days we go to waste like wine
That's turned to turpentine
It's six AM and I'm all messed up
I didn't mean to waste your time
So I'll fall back in line
But I'm warning you we're growing up
And memories like spies
And salt betrays my eyes again
I started losing sleep and gaining weight
And wishing I was was ten again
So I could be your friend again
These days we go to waste like wine
That's turned to turpentine
It's six AM and I'm all messed up
I didn't mean to waste your time
So I'll fall back in line
But I'm warning you we're growing up
I heard you found some pretty words to say
You found your little game to play
And there's no one allowed in
Then just when we believe we could be great
Reality it permeates
And conquers from within again
These days we go to waste like wine
That's turned to turpentine
It's six AM and I'm all messed up
I didn't mean to waste your time
So I'll fall back in line
But I'm warning you we're growing up
We're OK I know we're OK
These days we go to waste like wine
That's turned to turpentine
It's six AM and I'm all messed up
I didn't mean to waste your time
So I'll fall back in line
But I'm warning you we're growing up
My Song Lyrics – Brandi Carlile
Everything I do
Surrounds these pieces of my life
That often change
Or hey, maybe I've changed
Sometimes seeming happy
Can be self-destructive
Even when you're sane
Yeah you're only insane
But don't bother waking me today
Here I am
I'm so young
I know I've been bitter
I've been jaded
I'm alone
Everyday, I bite my tongue
If you only knew
My mind was full of razors
To cut you like a
Word if only sung
But this is my song
This is my song
I live everyday
Like they'll never be a last one
Till they're gone
And they're gone
I'm not too proud to beg for
Your attention and your friendship
And your time
So you could come and get it from now on
Here I am
I'm so young
I know I've been bitter
I've been jaded
I'm alone
Everyday, I bite my tongue
If you only knew
My mind was full of razors
To cut you like a
Word if only sung
This is my song
This is my song
And it's you
It is you
Here I am
I'm so young
I know I've been bitter
I've been jaded
I'm alone
Everyday, I bite my tongue
If you only knew
My mind was full of razors
I'm not sure I can take it
I've nothing strong to hold to
I'm way too old to hate you
My mind is full of razors
To cut you like a
Word if only sung
But this is my song
Surrounds these pieces of my life
That often change
Or hey, maybe I've changed
Sometimes seeming happy
Can be self-destructive
Even when you're sane
Yeah you're only insane
But don't bother waking me today
Here I am
I'm so young
I know I've been bitter
I've been jaded
I'm alone
Everyday, I bite my tongue
If you only knew
My mind was full of razors
To cut you like a
Word if only sung
But this is my song
This is my song
I live everyday
Like they'll never be a last one
Till they're gone
And they're gone
I'm not too proud to beg for
Your attention and your friendship
And your time
So you could come and get it from now on
Here I am
I'm so young
I know I've been bitter
I've been jaded
I'm alone
Everyday, I bite my tongue
If you only knew
My mind was full of razors
To cut you like a
Word if only sung
This is my song
This is my song
And it's you
It is you
Here I am
I'm so young
I know I've been bitter
I've been jaded
I'm alone
Everyday, I bite my tongue
If you only knew
My mind was full of razors
I'm not sure I can take it
I've nothing strong to hold to
I'm way too old to hate you
My mind is full of razors
To cut you like a
Word if only sung
But this is my song
Wasted Lyrics – Brandi Carlile
If you had eyes like golden crowns and
diamonds in your fingertips you'd waste it
If shining wisdom passed your lips and
traveled to the ears of God you'd waste it
And so I hate that you're overrated most
revered and celebrated because you'll waste it
Then again it's good to get a call
Now and then just to say hello
Have I said I hate to see you go
I hate to see you go
But ever time you close a door and nothing
opens in its place you've wasted
And when you speak the words you know
to those who know the words themselves
you're wasted
You're such a classic waste of cool, so afraid to
break the rules in all the wrong places
Then again it's good to get a call
Now and then just to say hello
Have I said I hate to see you go
I hate to see you go
diamonds in your fingertips you'd waste it
If shining wisdom passed your lips and
traveled to the ears of God you'd waste it
And so I hate that you're overrated most
revered and celebrated because you'll waste it
Then again it's good to get a call
Now and then just to say hello
Have I said I hate to see you go
I hate to see you go
But ever time you close a door and nothing
opens in its place you've wasted
And when you speak the words you know
to those who know the words themselves
you're wasted
You're such a classic waste of cool, so afraid to
break the rules in all the wrong places
Then again it's good to get a call
Now and then just to say hello
Have I said I hate to see you go
I hate to see you go
Have You Ever Lyrics – Brandi Carlile
have you ever wandered lonely through the wood?
and everything it feels just as it should
you're part of the life there, part of something good
if you've ever wandered lonely through the woods
ooooh
if you've ever wandered lonely through the woods.
have you ever stared into a starry sky?
lyin on your back you're askin' why?
what's the purpose, I wonder who am I
if you've ever stared into a starry sky
ooooh, aaaah, aaooaaooh
have you ever stared into a starry sky
have you ever been out walking in the snow
tried to get back where you were before
you always end up not knowing where to go
if you've ever been out walking in the snow
ooooh, aaaah, aaooaaooh, ooooh, aaooaaooh
if you'd ever been out walking, you would know
and everything it feels just as it should
you're part of the life there, part of something good
if you've ever wandered lonely through the woods
ooooh
if you've ever wandered lonely through the woods.
have you ever stared into a starry sky?
lyin on your back you're askin' why?
what's the purpose, I wonder who am I
if you've ever stared into a starry sky
ooooh, aaaah, aaooaaooh
have you ever stared into a starry sky
have you ever been out walking in the snow
tried to get back where you were before
you always end up not knowing where to go
if you've ever been out walking in the snow
ooooh, aaaah, aaooaaooh, ooooh, aaooaaooh
if you'd ever been out walking, you would know
Josephine Lyrics – Brandi Carlile
Take me back Josephine
To that cold and dark December
I am missing someone but I don't know who
Now I'm standing alone and I'm trying to remember
Sometimes I wonder how I ever started loving you
Noontime wind can you blow
For me one more time
And take me on back to the start
Where the midnight moon shines so bright
Nearly pulled us up to Heaven
By the strings of our heart
Take me back Josephine
To that cold and dark December
I am missing someone but I don't know who
Now I'm standing alone and I'm trying to remember
Sometimes I wonder how I ever started loving you
Morning sun shine on me
Come light inside my window
And rest on my brow
Kiss my eyes when I sleep
And carry me back home
If my dreams will allow
Take me back Josephine
To that cold and dark December
I am missing someone but I don't know who
Now I'm standing alone and I'm trying to remember
Sometimes I wonder how I ever started loving you
Take me back Josephine
To that cold and dark December
I am missing someone but I don't know who
Now I'm standing alone and I'm trying to remember
Sometimes I wonder how I ever started loving you
Someone help me understand why I'm still loving you
To that cold and dark December
I am missing someone but I don't know who
Now I'm standing alone and I'm trying to remember
Sometimes I wonder how I ever started loving you
Noontime wind can you blow
For me one more time
And take me on back to the start
Where the midnight moon shines so bright
Nearly pulled us up to Heaven
By the strings of our heart
Take me back Josephine
To that cold and dark December
I am missing someone but I don't know who
Now I'm standing alone and I'm trying to remember
Sometimes I wonder how I ever started loving you
Morning sun shine on me
Come light inside my window
And rest on my brow
Kiss my eyes when I sleep
And carry me back home
If my dreams will allow
Take me back Josephine
To that cold and dark December
I am missing someone but I don't know who
Now I'm standing alone and I'm trying to remember
Sometimes I wonder how I ever started loving you
Take me back Josephine
To that cold and dark December
I am missing someone but I don't know who
Now I'm standing alone and I'm trying to remember
Sometimes I wonder how I ever started loving you
Someone help me understand why I'm still loving you
Losing Heart Lyrics – Brandi Carlile
I don't mind
If my heart don't beat and
the sun don't shine
They'll get theirs
You'll get yours and I'll get mine
It used to be that everything was easy
Now it's lost and nobody believes me
Am I losing heart
Have I frozen it, oh yeah
Am I pushing too hard
Have I started to forget
I'm alright
Am I made of steel
Am I locked up tight
I'm human
But I'm wide awake and afraid to fight
It used to take nothing to amaze me
But now I'm older and
it doesn't even phase me
Am I losing heart
Have I frozen it, oh yeah
Am I pushing too hard
Have I started to forget
It used to be that everything was easy
Now it's lost and nobody believes me
Am I losing heart
Have I frozen it, oh yeah
Am I pushing too hard
Have I started to forget
If my heart don't beat and
the sun don't shine
They'll get theirs
You'll get yours and I'll get mine
It used to be that everything was easy
Now it's lost and nobody believes me
Am I losing heart
Have I frozen it, oh yeah
Am I pushing too hard
Have I started to forget
I'm alright
Am I made of steel
Am I locked up tight
I'm human
But I'm wide awake and afraid to fight
It used to take nothing to amaze me
But now I'm older and
it doesn't even phase me
Am I losing heart
Have I frozen it, oh yeah
Am I pushing too hard
Have I started to forget
It used to be that everything was easy
Now it's lost and nobody believes me
Am I losing heart
Have I frozen it, oh yeah
Am I pushing too hard
Have I started to forget
Cannonball Lyrics – Brandi Carlile
I was born when I met you
Now I'm dying to forget you
And that is what I know
Though I dreamed I would fall
Like a wounded cannonball
Sinking down with my heart in tow
Bright lights like white lightning
Who shot me down
Who will cut me down
I'm frozen in my bed till the day comes around
How I'm lost
How I'm found
There's a man all alone
Telling me his friends are gone
That they've died and flown away
So I told him he was wrong
That you friends are never gone
If you look to the sky and pray
Bright lights like white lightning
Who shot me down
Who will cut me down
I'm frozen in my bed till the day comes around
How I'm lost
How I'm found
Someone told me a lie
Someone looked me in the eye
And said time will ease your pain
But behold, when you fall
It's that same old cannonball
Coming back for your heart again
Bright lights like white lightning
Who shot me down
Who will cut me down
I'm frozen in my bed till the day comes around
And it may come around
Until the day comes around
How I'm lost
How I'm found
I was born when I met you
Now I'm dying to forget you
And that is what I know
Now I'm dying to forget you
And that is what I know
Though I dreamed I would fall
Like a wounded cannonball
Sinking down with my heart in tow
Bright lights like white lightning
Who shot me down
Who will cut me down
I'm frozen in my bed till the day comes around
How I'm lost
How I'm found
There's a man all alone
Telling me his friends are gone
That they've died and flown away
So I told him he was wrong
That you friends are never gone
If you look to the sky and pray
Bright lights like white lightning
Who shot me down
Who will cut me down
I'm frozen in my bed till the day comes around
How I'm lost
How I'm found
Someone told me a lie
Someone looked me in the eye
And said time will ease your pain
But behold, when you fall
It's that same old cannonball
Coming back for your heart again
Bright lights like white lightning
Who shot me down
Who will cut me down
I'm frozen in my bed till the day comes around
And it may come around
Until the day comes around
How I'm lost
How I'm found
I was born when I met you
Now I'm dying to forget you
And that is what I know
Until I Die Lyrics – Brandi Carlile
Hey there what's that in your sky
With all the pretty lights
You think I can get that high?
Hey you man, where's your motivation
And why the celebration
You've gotten nothing done here
You wanna live until you
Die alone and will
And I can fly alone and will
I'm not so far below
I live beneath your sky
With tainted eyes,
I've made my mind
To live until I die
Run run run catch me if you can can can
Come and hold my hand and I'll be your biggest fan
Followers living in your hollow words
I have seen your nine to fives
Wash away your dreams
You wanna live until you
Die alone and will
And I can fly alone and will
I'm not so far below
I live beneath your sky
With tainted eyes,
I've made my mind
Hey I'm just fine with all my time
To live until I die
With all the pretty lights
You think I can get that high?
Hey you man, where's your motivation
And why the celebration
You've gotten nothing done here
You wanna live until you
Die alone and will
And I can fly alone and will
I'm not so far below
I live beneath your sky
With tainted eyes,
I've made my mind
To live until I die
Run run run catch me if you can can can
Come and hold my hand and I'll be your biggest fan
Followers living in your hollow words
I have seen your nine to fives
Wash away your dreams
You wanna live until you
Die alone and will
And I can fly alone and will
I'm not so far below
I live beneath your sky
With tainted eyes,
I've made my mind
Hey I'm just fine with all my time
To live until I die
Downpour Lyrics – Brandi Carlile
I'm like the rain in a downpour
I wash away what you long for
And I wave goodbye with the sun in my eyes
I wish I could be there tonight
I'm like the wind in the canyon
I'm there then I'm gone in a second
You're growing older in peace where you're at
I wish I could be there for that
But I've moved on
Like a rolling stone
In a crowded room
I'm alone
I'm like the rain in a downpour
I wash away what you long for
And I wave goodbye with the sun in my eyes
I wish I could be there tonight
Oh, oh, yeah
You're like the tide in the deep blue
Cause you're always there when I need you
And when you need someone to carry you through
I'm gonna be there for you
I'm gonna be there for you
I wash away what you long for
And I wave goodbye with the sun in my eyes
I wish I could be there tonight
I'm like the wind in the canyon
I'm there then I'm gone in a second
You're growing older in peace where you're at
I wish I could be there for that
But I've moved on
Like a rolling stone
In a crowded room
I'm alone
I'm like the rain in a downpour
I wash away what you long for
And I wave goodbye with the sun in my eyes
I wish I could be there tonight
Oh, oh, yeah
You're like the tide in the deep blue
Cause you're always there when I need you
And when you need someone to carry you through
I'm gonna be there for you
I'm gonna be there for you
Shadow On The Wall Lyrics – Brandi Carlile
Gone
It's hard for me to see when I'm wrong
It's hard for me to weep when I'm strong
But I could never sleep when you're gone
Oh but still
If you were gonna crucify me
I wouldn't want nobody to see
'Cause you could kick me hard when I'm down
Down, down, down
I don't want wanna be
Nobody's fool
I've played that part so many times before
How I long to be
A shadow on the wall
I will make no sound at all
And when the sun goes down
The shadow on the wall
It cannot be seen at all
At all
Over it
Hey it's not that you would mess with my head
I believe that you believe what you said
You think you know me best and you care
But that's not fair!
'Cause I don't really want to be safe
It must have been the way I was raised
Sleep with one eye open I say
Hey hey hey
I don't wanna be
Nobody's fool
I've played that part so many times before
How I long to be
A shadow on the wall
I will make no sound at all
And when the sun goes down
The shadow on the wall
It cannot be seen at all
At all
Oh
How long to be
A shadow on the wall
I would make no sound at all
At all
It's hard for me to see when I'm wrong
It's hard for me to weep when I'm strong
But I could never sleep when you're gone
Oh but still
If you were gonna crucify me
I wouldn't want nobody to see
'Cause you could kick me hard when I'm down
Down, down, down
I don't want wanna be
Nobody's fool
I've played that part so many times before
How I long to be
A shadow on the wall
I will make no sound at all
And when the sun goes down
The shadow on the wall
It cannot be seen at all
At all
Over it
Hey it's not that you would mess with my head
I believe that you believe what you said
You think you know me best and you care
But that's not fair!
'Cause I don't really want to be safe
It must have been the way I was raised
Sleep with one eye open I say
Hey hey hey
I don't wanna be
Nobody's fool
I've played that part so many times before
How I long to be
A shadow on the wall
I will make no sound at all
And when the sun goes down
The shadow on the wall
It cannot be seen at all
At all
Oh
How long to be
A shadow on the wall
I would make no sound at all
At all
Again Today Lyrics – Brandi Carlile
Broken sticks and broken stones
Will turn to dust just like our bones
It's words that hurt the most now isn't it
Are you sad inside, are you home alone
If I could just pick up the phone
Maybe you could see a better day
And you won't waste away
under my watchful eye
Because I'm your hero and you're my weakness
Who's gonna break my fall
When the spinning starts
The colors bleed together and fade
Was it ever there at all
Or have I lost my way
The path of least resistance
Is catching up with me again today
I'm broken down, not good enough
The broken promises add up
To twice their weight in tears which I have caused
I'm afraid to sink, I'm afraid to swim
I'm sad to say I miss my friends
I know that I'm supposed to step away
But they need me to stay and keep a watchful eye
On all my heroes and all their demons
But who's gonna break my fall
When the spinning starts
The colors bleed together and fade
Was it ever there at all
Or have I lost my way
The path of least resistance
Is catching up with me again
Not today
Not today
Was it ever there at all
And have I lost my way
The path of least resistance
Is catching up with me again today
Broken sticks and broken stones
Will turn to dust just like our bones again today
I'm broken down
Not good enough
The broken promises add up again today
Was it ever there at all
And have I lost my way
The path of least resistance
Is catching up with me again today
Again today
Will turn to dust just like our bones
It's words that hurt the most now isn't it
Are you sad inside, are you home alone
If I could just pick up the phone
Maybe you could see a better day
And you won't waste away
under my watchful eye
Because I'm your hero and you're my weakness
Who's gonna break my fall
When the spinning starts
The colors bleed together and fade
Was it ever there at all
Or have I lost my way
The path of least resistance
Is catching up with me again today
I'm broken down, not good enough
The broken promises add up
To twice their weight in tears which I have caused
I'm afraid to sink, I'm afraid to swim
I'm sad to say I miss my friends
I know that I'm supposed to step away
But they need me to stay and keep a watchful eye
On all my heroes and all their demons
But who's gonna break my fall
When the spinning starts
The colors bleed together and fade
Was it ever there at all
Or have I lost my way
The path of least resistance
Is catching up with me again
Not today
Not today
Was it ever there at all
And have I lost my way
The path of least resistance
Is catching up with me again today
Broken sticks and broken stones
Will turn to dust just like our bones again today
I'm broken down
Not good enough
The broken promises add up again today
Was it ever there at all
And have I lost my way
The path of least resistance
Is catching up with me again today
Again today
Follow Lyrics – Brandi Carlile
Follow your heart and see where it might take you
Don't let the world outside there break you
They know not who you are inside
They've never felt your hell
Don't ever let them crack
Hold out I know you feel it getting cold out
Without the blanket for your soul and
Before you know it you'll be frozen
And you have to see this through
There's no one here but you
I feel the rain coming down
It reminds me of who I used to be
But now that's nothing more
Than a memory
Don't go to sleep and cry because
Tomorrow if you let it, it will swallow
You up and none of this will matter
Anymore
I feel the rain coming down
It reminds me of who I used to be
But now that's nothing more
Than a memory...
Follow your heart and see where it might take you
Don't let the world outside there break you
They know not who you are inside
They've never felt your hell
Don't ever let them crack your shell
Don't let the world outside there break you
They know not who you are inside
They've never felt your hell
Don't ever let them crack
Hold out I know you feel it getting cold out
Without the blanket for your soul and
Before you know it you'll be frozen
And you have to see this through
There's no one here but you
I feel the rain coming down
It reminds me of who I used to be
But now that's nothing more
Than a memory
Don't go to sleep and cry because
Tomorrow if you let it, it will swallow
You up and none of this will matter
Anymore
I feel the rain coming down
It reminds me of who I used to be
But now that's nothing more
Than a memory...
Follow your heart and see where it might take you
Don't let the world outside there break you
They know not who you are inside
They've never felt your hell
Don't ever let them crack your shell
What Can I Say Lyrics – Brandi Carlile
Look to the clock on the wall
Hands hardly moving at all
I can't stand the state that I'm in
Sometimes it feels like the walls closing in
Oh, Lord, what can I say
I'm so sad since you went away
Time, time, ticking on me
Alone is the last place I wanted to be
Lord, what can I say
Try to burn my troubles away
Drown my sorrow the same way
Seems no matter how hard I try
Feels like there's something just missing inside
Oh, Lord, what can I say
I'm so sad since you went away
Time, time, ticking on me
Alone is the last place I wanted to be
Lord, what can I say
Oh, Lord, what can I say
How many rules can I break
How many lies can I make
How many roads must I turn
To find me a place where the bridge hasn't burned
Oh, Lord, what can I say
I'm so sad since you went away
Time, time, ticking on me
Alone is the last place I wanted to be
Lord, what can I say
Oh, Lord, what can I say
Hands hardly moving at all
I can't stand the state that I'm in
Sometimes it feels like the walls closing in
Oh, Lord, what can I say
I'm so sad since you went away
Time, time, ticking on me
Alone is the last place I wanted to be
Lord, what can I say
Try to burn my troubles away
Drown my sorrow the same way
Seems no matter how hard I try
Feels like there's something just missing inside
Oh, Lord, what can I say
I'm so sad since you went away
Time, time, ticking on me
Alone is the last place I wanted to be
Lord, what can I say
Oh, Lord, what can I say
How many rules can I break
How many lies can I make
How many roads must I turn
To find me a place where the bridge hasn't burned
Oh, Lord, what can I say
I'm so sad since you went away
Time, time, ticking on me
Alone is the last place I wanted to be
Lord, what can I say
Oh, Lord, what can I say
Closer To You Lyrics – Brandi Carlile
It's hard to let the miles pass me by
Yellow lines they blend together in my eyes
And when the seasons change again then I will too
But I just wanna be closer to you
And I'm staring out at endless rows of green
There are miles of hay like I've never seen
But just when you think you've had enough and your dreams come true
I just wanna be closer to you
Oh my mind wanders through all that I've been hiding from
I tried not to let you down
Now I wonder if I've been doing something wrong
Help me get my feet back on the ground
Tomorrow I'll be lying under you
With a heart of gold and arms to fall into
I know that there might come a day my life is through
But I just wanna be closer to you
Oh my mind wanders through all that I've been hiding from
I tried not to let you down
Now I wonder if I've been doing something wrong
Help me get my feet back on the ground
Someday we might learn to tell the truth
We might even find the fountains of our youth
And we all needed something real we all need proof
But I just wanna be closer to you
I only wanna be closer to you
Yellow lines they blend together in my eyes
And when the seasons change again then I will too
But I just wanna be closer to you
And I'm staring out at endless rows of green
There are miles of hay like I've never seen
But just when you think you've had enough and your dreams come true
I just wanna be closer to you
Oh my mind wanders through all that I've been hiding from
I tried not to let you down
Now I wonder if I've been doing something wrong
Help me get my feet back on the ground
Tomorrow I'll be lying under you
With a heart of gold and arms to fall into
I know that there might come a day my life is through
But I just wanna be closer to you
Oh my mind wanders through all that I've been hiding from
I tried not to let you down
Now I wonder if I've been doing something wrong
Help me get my feet back on the ground
Someday we might learn to tell the truth
We might even find the fountains of our youth
And we all needed something real we all need proof
But I just wanna be closer to you
I only wanna be closer to you
Throw It All Away Lyrics – Brandi Carlile
When you're near me I have no fear
When I'm untrue you see right through me
You know me as deep as the sea goes
Calm my head whenever a storm blows
When the stars, and the moon,
and the sky fall through
I'd throw them all away when I'm hollow
Deep as the sea goes
All I know is I would
Throw them all away, away
So in my restless hour I'm holding
Words you say that lay my soul to sleep
I dream of buildings that burn
The sky turns black, I toss and turn
When the stars, and the moon,
and the sky fall through
I'd throw them all away when I'm hollow
Deep as the sea goes
All I know is I would
Throw them all away, away
This love branches out like an oak tree
Reach for the sky and roots to the sea
So when you're shaken down and broken
Find your peace of mind in knowing
I'd throw them all away when I'm hollow
Deep as the sea goes
All I know is I would
Throw them all away when I'm hollow
Deep as the sea goes
All I know is I would
Throw them all away, away
When I'm untrue you see right through me
You know me as deep as the sea goes
Calm my head whenever a storm blows
When the stars, and the moon,
and the sky fall through
I'd throw them all away when I'm hollow
Deep as the sea goes
All I know is I would
Throw them all away, away
So in my restless hour I'm holding
Words you say that lay my soul to sleep
I dream of buildings that burn
The sky turns black, I toss and turn
When the stars, and the moon,
and the sky fall through
I'd throw them all away when I'm hollow
Deep as the sea goes
All I know is I would
Throw them all away, away
This love branches out like an oak tree
Reach for the sky and roots to the sea
So when you're shaken down and broken
Find your peace of mind in knowing
I'd throw them all away when I'm hollow
Deep as the sea goes
All I know is I would
Throw them all away when I'm hollow
Deep as the sea goes
All I know is I would
Throw them all away, away
Happy Lyrics – Brandi Carlile
I don't hang around that place no more
I'm tired of wearing circles in the floor
And I don't carry myself very well
I've gotten so much braver, can you tell
I'm happy, can't you see
I'm alright, but I miss you, Amber Lee
And I line my secrets up all one by one
I put 'em all away when I was done
And I would really love to hear your voice sometime
To close a little distance in my mind
I'm happy, can't you see
I'm alright, but I miss you, Amber Lee
I believe
Where have you been all these years
How could you just disappear
And when did you stop missing me
I'm happy, can't you see
I'm alright, but I miss you, Amber Lee
I'm alright, but I miss you, Amber Lee
I'm tired of wearing circles in the floor
And I don't carry myself very well
I've gotten so much braver, can you tell
I'm happy, can't you see
I'm alright, but I miss you, Amber Lee
And I line my secrets up all one by one
I put 'em all away when I was done
And I would really love to hear your voice sometime
To close a little distance in my mind
I'm happy, can't you see
I'm alright, but I miss you, Amber Lee
I believe
Where have you been all these years
How could you just disappear
And when did you stop missing me
I'm happy, can't you see
I'm alright, but I miss you, Amber Lee
I'm alright, but I miss you, Amber Lee
Someday Never Comes Lyrics – Brandi Carlile
Dear Love, I'll miss you much
I'll miss your smile and I'll miss your touch
But I found a place where I can erase my past
Maybe someday when you're old and gray
When your hair falls out and your tattoos fade
You might see me standing, hand in hand
I have to go away
I've got no reason to stay here
You said someday you'll change
But even a fool will tell you
Someday never comes
You built your rooms, you built your walls
You kept me outside of it all
I got tired of you, what's a girl to do
Maybe someday if we stay this way
And you see my face in a different place
You'll remember when, you're gonna thank me then
I have to go away
I've got no reason to stay here
You said someday you'll change
But even a fool will tell you
Someday never comes
I'll miss your smile and I'll miss your touch
But I found a place where I can erase my past
Maybe someday when you're old and gray
When your hair falls out and your tattoos fade
You might see me standing, hand in hand
I have to go away
I've got no reason to stay here
You said someday you'll change
But even a fool will tell you
Someday never comes
You built your rooms, you built your walls
You kept me outside of it all
I got tired of you, what's a girl to do
Maybe someday if we stay this way
And you see my face in a different place
You'll remember when, you're gonna thank me then
I have to go away
I've got no reason to stay here
You said someday you'll change
But even a fool will tell you
Someday never comes
Fall Apart Again Lyrics – Brandi Carlile
Long is the day, take it away
Hold it up and you don't let it fall
Cause devil's play was yesterday
And I don't care about that at all
I just smile, once in a while
Cause I don't want the lines on my face
And I sit right here, holding the years
And I count all the stars in space
You fall apart again, and you can find a friend
Don't turn to someone else, cause they won't understand
Self-respect goes unexpressed
I don't dream cause I cannot sleep
And I think the world of myself
But the world doesn't think much of me
As long as the day is full of time
There will always be room for your hand in mind
You fall apart again, and you can find a friend
Don't turn to someone else, cause they won't understand
I don't wanna hear you say that you miss yesterday
If you don't like what you see, that means nothing to me
No one's home, I'm alone with my music and my defeat
And I still say that yesterday is best when left to sleep
You fall apart again, and you can find a friend
Don't turn to someone else, cause they won't understand
I don't wanna hear you say that you miss yesterday
If you don't like what you see, that means nothing to me
Hold it up and you don't let it fall
Cause devil's play was yesterday
And I don't care about that at all
I just smile, once in a while
Cause I don't want the lines on my face
And I sit right here, holding the years
And I count all the stars in space
You fall apart again, and you can find a friend
Don't turn to someone else, cause they won't understand
Self-respect goes unexpressed
I don't dream cause I cannot sleep
And I think the world of myself
But the world doesn't think much of me
As long as the day is full of time
There will always be room for your hand in mind
You fall apart again, and you can find a friend
Don't turn to someone else, cause they won't understand
I don't wanna hear you say that you miss yesterday
If you don't like what you see, that means nothing to me
No one's home, I'm alone with my music and my defeat
And I still say that yesterday is best when left to sleep
You fall apart again, and you can find a friend
Don't turn to someone else, cause they won't understand
I don't wanna hear you say that you miss yesterday
If you don't like what you see, that means nothing to me
In My Own Eyes Lyrics – Brandi Carlile
Hold me down, lift me up
There's someone on the bedside waiting there for me
I hear my name, turn around
There's gotta be a downside, something I don't see
Around me, hide me
Dying in the light of the room
Blind side please
I don't really wanna be seen
In my own eyes
Something's wrong, awake all night
'Cause I can feel the dark side closing in on me
Do you see me as I see myself
I promise there's a downside, something you can't see
About me, hide me
Dying in the light of the room
Blind side please
I don't really wanna be seen
In my own eyes
Lost in translation, free to fall
One situation and lose it all
Hide me
Dying in the light of the room
Blind side please
I don't really wanna be seen...
I don't really wanna be seen
In my own eyes
There's someone on the bedside waiting there for me
I hear my name, turn around
There's gotta be a downside, something I don't see
Around me, hide me
Dying in the light of the room
Blind side please
I don't really wanna be seen
In my own eyes
Something's wrong, awake all night
'Cause I can feel the dark side closing in on me
Do you see me as I see myself
I promise there's a downside, something you can't see
About me, hide me
Dying in the light of the room
Blind side please
I don't really wanna be seen
In my own eyes
Lost in translation, free to fall
One situation and lose it all
Hide me
Dying in the light of the room
Blind side please
I don't really wanna be seen...
I don't really wanna be seen
In my own eyes
Gone Lyrics – Brandi Carlile
Life is too short to waste all your time
Running too quickly to the finish line
Time is a trap, it's ready and set
And the longer you live, the closer you get to being
Gone, gone like the evening
Sun, sun when it sets
Gone, gone like the darkness
At dawn, and then we forget
Oooooooooh...
There's no guarantee or promise of wealth
And you're only allowed so much time on the shelf
Time isn't money, it's only a lie
Because everything lost can be found but your time when you're
Gone, gone like the evening
Sun, sun when it sets
Gone, gone like the darkness
At dawn, and then we forget
Oooooooooh...
So live in doubt, live in fear
And you might live forever
Or live it up, and watch your back,
And you might live for better
Gone, gone like the evening
Sun, sun when it sets
Gone, gone like the darkness
At dawn, and then we forget
Oooooooooh...
Running too quickly to the finish line
Time is a trap, it's ready and set
And the longer you live, the closer you get to being
Gone, gone like the evening
Sun, sun when it sets
Gone, gone like the darkness
At dawn, and then we forget
Oooooooooh...
There's no guarantee or promise of wealth
And you're only allowed so much time on the shelf
Time isn't money, it's only a lie
Because everything lost can be found but your time when you're
Gone, gone like the evening
Sun, sun when it sets
Gone, gone like the darkness
At dawn, and then we forget
Oooooooooh...
So live in doubt, live in fear
And you might live forever
Or live it up, and watch your back,
And you might live for better
Gone, gone like the evening
Sun, sun when it sets
Gone, gone like the darkness
At dawn, and then we forget
Oooooooooh...
Tragedy Lyrics – Brandi Carlile
Sorry, I'm only
Human, you know me
Grown up, oh no guess again
My days always
Dry up and blow away
Sometimes I could do that too
But make no mistake that
When you need a friend
You could count on anyone
But you know I'll defend
The tragedy that we knew as the end
Progress, changing
Growing then giving up
Somehow I'm never quite prepared
But I understand that
When you need a friend
You could count on anyone
But you know I'll defend
The tragedy that we knew as the end
So taking you with me would be like
Taking all your money to the grave
It does no good to anyone especially
The one you're trying to save
It's so hard not to say
When you need a friend
You could count on anyone
But you know I'll defend
The tragedy that we knew as the end
Human, you know me
Grown up, oh no guess again
My days always
Dry up and blow away
Sometimes I could do that too
But make no mistake that
When you need a friend
You could count on anyone
But you know I'll defend
The tragedy that we knew as the end
Progress, changing
Growing then giving up
Somehow I'm never quite prepared
But I understand that
When you need a friend
You could count on anyone
But you know I'll defend
The tragedy that we knew as the end
So taking you with me would be like
Taking all your money to the grave
It does no good to anyone especially
The one you're trying to save
It's so hard not to say
When you need a friend
You could count on anyone
But you know I'll defend
The tragedy that we knew as the end
Sixty Years On Lyrics – Brandi Carlile
Who'll walk me down to church when I'm sixty years of age
When the ragged dog they gave me has been ten years in the grave
And senorita play guitar, play it just for you
My rosary has broken and my beads have all slipped through
You've hung up your great coat and you've laid down your gun
You know the war you fought in wasn't too much fun
And the future you're giving me holds nothing for a gun
I've no wish to be living sixty years on
Yes I'll sit with you and talk let your eyes relive again
I know my vintage prayers would be very much the same
And Magdelena plays the organ, plays it just for you
My rosary has broken and my beads have all slipped through
Who'll walk me down to church when I'm sixty years of age
When the ragged dog they gave me has been ten years in the grave
'Cause the future you're giving me holds nothing for a gun
I've no wish to be living sixty years on
When the ragged dog they gave me has been ten years in the grave
And senorita play guitar, play it just for you
My rosary has broken and my beads have all slipped through
You've hung up your great coat and you've laid down your gun
You know the war you fought in wasn't too much fun
And the future you're giving me holds nothing for a gun
I've no wish to be living sixty years on
Yes I'll sit with you and talk let your eyes relive again
I know my vintage prayers would be very much the same
And Magdelena plays the organ, plays it just for you
My rosary has broken and my beads have all slipped through
Who'll walk me down to church when I'm sixty years of age
When the ragged dog they gave me has been ten years in the grave
'Cause the future you're giving me holds nothing for a gun
I've no wish to be living sixty years on
Silver Cloud Lyrics – Brandi Carlile
I walked on by the old school yard
As high as I envision
The years behind us and your decisions
Whatever it takes whatever you need
And I will be there for you
Last you heard is I adore you, well
And days go by
But that was yesterday
You want to still be friends
It doesn't work that way
I was floating on your silver cloud
When the storm came in and the bottom fell out
Still I try I wonder why I can't figure it out
Floating on your silver cloud
If time wasn't lost
And the friends you forgot
That tried to be there for you
All you wanted was to be alone
And I can't win
It's over either way
Hey I know how this ends and I don't want to play
I was floating on your silver cloud
When the storm came in and the bottom fell out
Still I try I wonder why I can't figure it out
Floating on your silver cloud
I watched our friendship sink
I held out my hand
You tore another chink
And I didn't understand
Thru all the white lies
Thru all the black lies
Hard to survive
As I held you up
Still your pride you rejected my crutch
I was floating on your silver cloud
When the storm came in
And the bottom fell out
Still I try I wonder why I can't figure it out
Floating on your silver cloud
As high as I envision
The years behind us and your decisions
Whatever it takes whatever you need
And I will be there for you
Last you heard is I adore you, well
And days go by
But that was yesterday
You want to still be friends
It doesn't work that way
I was floating on your silver cloud
When the storm came in and the bottom fell out
Still I try I wonder why I can't figure it out
Floating on your silver cloud
If time wasn't lost
And the friends you forgot
That tried to be there for you
All you wanted was to be alone
And I can't win
It's over either way
Hey I know how this ends and I don't want to play
I was floating on your silver cloud
When the storm came in and the bottom fell out
Still I try I wonder why I can't figure it out
Floating on your silver cloud
I watched our friendship sink
I held out my hand
You tore another chink
And I didn't understand
Thru all the white lies
Thru all the black lies
Hard to survive
As I held you up
Still your pride you rejected my crutch
I was floating on your silver cloud
When the storm came in
And the bottom fell out
Still I try I wonder why I can't figure it out
Floating on your silver cloud
Tired Lyrics – Brandi Carlile
Up tired with your blue eyes crying and you’re
Upset like you’re tired of trying and
You gave it away; you think you’ll figure out
And even if you’ve
Lost your mind when you’re down and out
I don’t know what you’re on about, but,
You’ll end up on your own again, hey.
Underlying, self-denying,
Hate when you’ve been left behind.
The world is closing in on you.
You’ve been told a thousand times
To watch your back, you never know quite when
Or where.
Up tired with your blue eyes crying and you’re
Upset like you’re tired of trying and
You gave it away; you think you’ll figure out
And even if you’ve
Lost your mind when you’re down and out
I don’t know what you’re on about, but,
You’ll end up on your own again, hey.
Lost and low, I know, you’re okay.
I do believe I’m saving you.
Maybe I don’t want to be.
I do believe that it will be okay, yeah.
Oh, yeah.

Maybe you’ve been left behind.
The world is closing in on you.

And even if you’ve

You’ll end up on your own again, hey.
Yeah
Oh, everything will be okay.
Upset like you’re tired of trying and

Until I Die Lyrics – Brandi Carlile
Hey there what's that in your sky
With all the pretty lights
You think I can get that high?
Hey you man, where's your motivation
And why the celebration
You've gotten nothing done here
You wanna live until you
Die alone and will
And I can fly alone and will
I'm not so far below
I live beneath your sky
With tainted eyes,
I've made my mind
To live until I die
Run run run catch me if you can can can
Come and hold my hand and I'll be your biggest fan
Followers living in your hollow words
I have seen your nine to fives
Wash away your dreams
You wanna live until you
Die alone and will
And I can fly alone and will
I'm not so far below
I live beneath your sky
With tainted eyes,
I've made my mind
Hey I'm just fine with all my time
To live until I die
With all the pretty lights
You think I can get that high?
Hey you man, where's your motivation
And why the celebration
You've gotten nothing done here
You wanna live until you
Die alone and will
And I can fly alone and will
I'm not so far below
I live beneath your sky
With tainted eyes,
I've made my mind
To live until I die
Run run run catch me if you can can can
Come and hold my hand and I'll be your biggest fan
Followers living in your hollow words
I have seen your nine to fives
Wash away your dreams
You wanna live until you
Die alone and will
And I can fly alone and will
I'm not so far below
I live beneath your sky
With tainted eyes,
I've made my mind
Hey I'm just fine with all my time
To live until I die
Turpentine Lyrics – Brandi Carlile
I watch you grow away from me in photographs
And memories like spies
And salt betrays my eyes again
I started losing sleep and gaining weight
And wishing I was was ten again
So I could be your friend again
These days we go to waste like wine
That's turned to turpentine
It's six AM and I'm all messed up
I didn't mean to waste your time
So I'll fall back in line
But I'm warning you we're growing up
I heard you found some pretty words to say
You found your little game to play
And there's no one allowed in
Then just when we believe we could be great
Reality it permeates
And conquers from within again
These days we go to waste like wine
That's turned to turpentine
It's six AM and I'm all messed up
I didn't mean to waste your time
So I'll fall back in line
But I'm warning you we're growing up
We're OK I know we're OK
These days we go to waste like wine
That's turned to turpentine
It's six AM and I'm all messed up
I didn't mean to waste your time
So I'll fall back in line
But I'm warning you we're growing up
And memories like spies
And salt betrays my eyes again
I started losing sleep and gaining weight
And wishing I was was ten again
So I could be your friend again
These days we go to waste like wine
That's turned to turpentine
It's six AM and I'm all messed up
I didn't mean to waste your time
So I'll fall back in line
But I'm warning you we're growing up
I heard you found some pretty words to say
You found your little game to play
And there's no one allowed in
Then just when we believe we could be great
Reality it permeates
And conquers from within again
These days we go to waste like wine
That's turned to turpentine
It's six AM and I'm all messed up
I didn't mean to waste your time
So I'll fall back in line
But I'm warning you we're growing up
We're OK I know we're OK
These days we go to waste like wine
That's turned to turpentine
It's six AM and I'm all messed up
I didn't mean to waste your time
So I'll fall back in line
But I'm warning you we're growing up
Wasted Lyrics – Brandi Carlile
If you had eyes like golden crowns and
diamonds in your fingertips you'd waste it
If shining wisdom passed your lips and
traveled to the ears of God you'd waste it
And so I hate that you're overrated most
revered and celebrated because you'll waste it
Then again it's good to get a call
Now and then just to say hello
Have I said I hate to see you go
I hate to see you go
But ever time you close a door and nothing
opens in its place you've wasted
And when you speak the words you know
to those who know the words themselves
you're wasted
You're such a classic waste of cool, so afraid to
break the rules in all the wrong places
Then again it's good to get a call
Now and then just to say hello
Have I said I hate to see you go
I hate to see you go
diamonds in your fingertips you'd waste it
If shining wisdom passed your lips and
traveled to the ears of God you'd waste it
And so I hate that you're overrated most
revered and celebrated because you'll waste it
Then again it's good to get a call
Now and then just to say hello
Have I said I hate to see you go
I hate to see you go
But ever time you close a door and nothing
opens in its place you've wasted
And when you speak the words you know
to those who know the words themselves
you're wasted
You're such a classic waste of cool, so afraid to
break the rules in all the wrong places
Then again it's good to get a call
Now and then just to say hello
Have I said I hate to see you go
I hate to see you go
Somewhere Along The Way Lyrics – Brandi Carlile
It must have been that day I stopped believing
It must have been that time I broke your door
Well I must have been that way before you met me
It must have been a thousand years or more
When you said no more dime store apologies from you
No more back yard rock stars howling at the moon
It's like the harder you try the bigger the debt you pay
I must have lost it...somewhere along the way
I never meant to cause you so much friction
I never saw how jaded I'd become
I never meant to harbor some addiction
I really wanna turn my head and run
When you said no more dime store apologies from you
No more back yard rock stars howling at the moon
It's like the harder you try the bigger the debt you pay
I must have lost it...somewhere along the way
It must have been that time I broke your door
Well I must have been that way before you met me
It must have been a thousand years or more
When you said no more dime store apologies from you
No more back yard rock stars howling at the moon
It's like the harder you try the bigger the debt you pay
I must have lost it...somewhere along the way
I never meant to cause you so much friction
I never saw how jaded I'd become
I never meant to harbor some addiction
I really wanna turn my head and run
When you said no more dime store apologies from you
No more back yard rock stars howling at the moon
It's like the harder you try the bigger the debt you pay
I must have lost it...somewhere along the way
Again Today Lyrics – Brandi Carlile
Broken sticks and broken stones
Will turn to dust just like our bones
It's words that hurt the most now isn't it
Are you sad inside, are you home alone
If I could just pick up the phone
Maybe you could see a better day
And you won't waste away
under my watchful eye
Because I'm your hero and you're my weakness
Who's gonna break my fall
When the spinning starts
The colors bleed together and fade
Was it ever there at all
Or have I lost my way
The path of least resistance
Is catching up with me again today
I'm broken down, not good enough
The broken promises add up
To twice their weight in tears which I have caused
I'm afraid to sink, I'm afraid to swim
I'm sad to say I miss my friends
I know that I'm supposed to step away
But they need me to stay and keep a watchful eye
On all my heroes and all their demons
But who's gonna break my fall
When the spinning starts
The colors bleed together and fade
Was it ever there at all
Or have I lost my way
The path of least resistance
Is catching up with me again
Not today
Not today
Was it ever there at all
And have I lost my way
The path of least resistance
Is catching up with me again today
Broken sticks and broken stones
Will turn to dust just like our bones again today
I'm broken down
Not good enough
The broken promises add up again today
Was it ever there at all
And have I lost my way
The path of least resistance
Is catching up with me again today
Again today
Will turn to dust just like our bones
It's words that hurt the most now isn't it
Are you sad inside, are you home alone
If I could just pick up the phone
Maybe you could see a better day
And you won't waste away
under my watchful eye
Because I'm your hero and you're my weakness
Who's gonna break my fall
When the spinning starts
The colors bleed together and fade
Was it ever there at all
Or have I lost my way
The path of least resistance
Is catching up with me again today
I'm broken down, not good enough
The broken promises add up
To twice their weight in tears which I have caused
I'm afraid to sink, I'm afraid to swim
I'm sad to say I miss my friends
I know that I'm supposed to step away
But they need me to stay and keep a watchful eye
On all my heroes and all their demons
But who's gonna break my fall
When the spinning starts
The colors bleed together and fade
Was it ever there at all
Or have I lost my way
The path of least resistance
Is catching up with me again
Not today
Not today
Was it ever there at all
And have I lost my way
The path of least resistance
Is catching up with me again today
Broken sticks and broken stones
Will turn to dust just like our bones again today
I'm broken down
Not good enough
The broken promises add up again today
Was it ever there at all
And have I lost my way
The path of least resistance
Is catching up with me again today
Again today
Caroline Lyrics – Brandi Carlile
Hello, I'm looking for a friend I lost some time ago
Your mother says she wants her girl back home
Sometimes you think you find yourself, you really only lost yourself
Or maybe you're afraid to be alone
But if I could see behind blue eyes
At all the things that dusty windows try to hide
Then, I could see behind the walls of Caroline
And behind blue eyes
I heard that you're in town again
You surely can depend on me
To keep you out of the sun
Down and out and out and then I'm climbing up the walls again
I'm standing in line to be the one
But if I could see behind blue eyes
At all the things that dusty windows try to hide
Then, I could see behind the walls of Caroline
And behind blue eyes
I faced it
I'm wasted
Don't fly away before your time
It's phony
You own me
C'mon don't fly away before your time
But if I could see behind blue eyes
At all the things that dusty windows try to hide
Then, I could see behind the walls of Caroline
And behind blue eyes
Your mother says she wants her girl back home
Sometimes you think you find yourself, you really only lost yourself
Or maybe you're afraid to be alone
But if I could see behind blue eyes
At all the things that dusty windows try to hide
Then, I could see behind the walls of Caroline
And behind blue eyes
I heard that you're in town again
You surely can depend on me
To keep you out of the sun
Down and out and out and then I'm climbing up the walls again
I'm standing in line to be the one
But if I could see behind blue eyes
At all the things that dusty windows try to hide
Then, I could see behind the walls of Caroline
And behind blue eyes
I faced it
I'm wasted
Don't fly away before your time
It's phony
You own me
C'mon don't fly away before your time
But if I could see behind blue eyes
At all the things that dusty windows try to hide
Then, I could see behind the walls of Caroline
And behind blue eyes
Last One To Know Lyrics – Brandi Carlile
All along my face
Something's not right
Headin' down the lines
I once believe in things unseen
Till I was running out of
Time is a virtue not many
Of us have the luxury to enjoy
Unless you think you're
Free but nothing's guaranteed
But death and taxes and
(That should let me down)
I'm so far down today
I'm so far down
I'm so far down
Here on my shoulder in stone
I can never throw (it) away
And I'm so angry yet so sad
I remember when
(The life ..)
You're so rad you're so rad
I never amount to nothing but
But ashes of faith
(I'm not well)
I'm not brave enough to face the things
That I know are wrong with my life
So I blame you
And you're the first one to go
The first one to show
The last one to know
The last one to know
Something's not right
Headin' down the lines
I once believe in things unseen
Till I was running out of
Time is a virtue not many
Of us have the luxury to enjoy
Unless you think you're
Free but nothing's guaranteed
But death and taxes and
(That should let me down)
I'm so far down today
I'm so far down
I'm so far down
Here on my shoulder in stone
I can never throw (it) away
And I'm so angry yet so sad
I remember when
(The life ..)
You're so rad you're so rad
I never amount to nothing but
But ashes of faith
(I'm not well)
I'm not brave enough to face the things
That I know are wrong with my life
So I blame you
And you're the first one to go
The first one to show
The last one to know
The last one to know
5:00 lyrics - brandi carlile
Monday you just had to spend the day with me
And hop a bus down to the big city
Tuesday it looked like rain
And i was laughing all insane
And running through it anyway
Hot cup of coffee in my fingers
As the weekend they disappear
Bye bye
Wednesday's paper is all about the president
We've all seen better ways of our time spent
Thursday it was nothing but a compropmise
Changing with the tide is just my way of being wise
Naive notions that were childish
And my thoughts of a busy day
Maybe
You know i worked all day then the sun went down at five
I'll pass the hours away just to keep myself alive
Yeah i didn't miss you a bit but i just might want you tonight
I'll wake up Saturday morning and finally i'll be all right
Friday comes my song is on the radio
A long drive home and i'm listening to my indigo
Solitary sense it finally comes over me
I made it through another week
I know just where i want to be
Raindrops on the window wash away my Friday blues
You know i worked all day then the sun went down at five
I passed the hours away just to keep myself alive
Yeah i didn't miss yo a bit but i just might want you tonight
I'll wake up Saturday morning and finally i'll be all right
We're all right now
Yeah i didnt miss you a bit but i just might want you tonight
I'll wake up Saturday morning and finally i'll be there
Monday you just had to spend the day with me
Tuesday it's raining in the big city
Wednesday's the president Thursday i pay the rent
Friday comes my song is on the radio
Yeah i worked all day then the sun went down at five
I'll pass the hours away just to keep myself alive
Yeah i didn't miss you a bit but i just might want you tonight yeah
I'll wake up Saturday morning and finally i'll be all right
We're all right
I'll wake up Saturday morning and finally i'll be all right
And hop a bus down to the big city
Tuesday it looked like rain
And i was laughing all insane
And running through it anyway
Hot cup of coffee in my fingers
As the weekend they disappear
Bye bye

Changing with the tide is just my way of being wise

Fall lyrics - brandi carlile
There's a candle in the corner
It keeps reminding me of you
It's how you lit it on my birthday
Sometimes I miss the things you do
But then you'd turn on me if the wind blew
And you'd sting me with a glare
And your thirst was so insatiable
Just to quench it robbed me bare
I'm on broken glass
My bitter pill
That you'll love me I know
I been wasting time on climbing hills
So you'll love me I know
Someday you will.........fall on my knees
Cross-legged by the fireplace
I play guitar while you read
My patience ran so thin with you
Always toying with my head
Some how it made you strangely gleeful
To see me longing for your touch
And I still fail to see the humor in my loving you so much
I'm on broken glass
My bitter pill
That you'll love me I know
I been wasting time on climbing hills
So you'll love me I know
Someday you will.........fall on my knees
I said we're faced with the facts and it's a high price to pay
C'mon blue eyes that tell me you can't walk away
If there's nothing to lose then there's nothing to gain
C'mon stay here tonight don't drive home in the rain
And I fall on my knees
All my pride is in your hands
We're not so strong and we've mislaid our plans
I taste the shame and I'll take the blame
If it's my cross to bear
I'm on broken glass
My bitter pill
That you'll love me I know
I been wasting time on climbing hills
So you'll love me I know
Someday you will.........fall on my knees
It keeps reminding me of you
It's how you lit it on my birthday
Sometimes I miss the things you do
But then you'd turn on me if the wind blew
And you'd sting me with a glare
And your thirst was so insatiable
Just to quench it robbed me bare
I'm on broken glass
My bitter pill
That you'll love me I know
I been wasting time on climbing hills
So you'll love me I know
Someday you will.........fall on my knees
Cross-legged by the fireplace
I play guitar while you read
My patience ran so thin with you
Always toying with my head
Some how it made you strangely gleeful
To see me longing for your touch
And I still fail to see the humor in my loving you so much
I'm on broken glass
My bitter pill
That you'll love me I know
I been wasting time on climbing hills
So you'll love me I know
Someday you will.........fall on my knees
I said we're faced with the facts and it's a high price to pay
C'mon blue eyes that tell me you can't walk away
If there's nothing to lose then there's nothing to gain
C'mon stay here tonight don't drive home in the rain
And I fall on my knees
All my pride is in your hands
We're not so strong and we've mislaid our plans
I taste the shame and I'll take the blame
If it's my cross to bear
I'm on broken glass
My bitter pill
That you'll love me I know
I been wasting time on climbing hills
So you'll love me I know
Someday you will.........fall on my knees
Open Doors lyrics - brandi carlile
So we haven't seen her
anywhere around
and i fear Brianna
is six feet underground
and i could not apologize
enough to set me free
so if you see Brianna won't you
tell her this for me
i would open doors
help you on your way
i don't want to lie no more
i think i've found my place
so what are you waiting for
i just want to wish you well
and i don't want to call no more
and i would open doors
gravity ensures us
closer to the ground
and i keep my feet planted
firmly in the clouds
so i would often wonder if you'd
ever come around
cuz you're the only one who'd always
bring me crashing down
i would open doors
and help you on your way
i don't want to lie no more
i think i've found my place
so what are you waiting for
i just want to wish you well
and i don't want to lie no more
i would open doors
so what are you waiting for
i'll help you on your way
i don't want to lie no more
i think i've found my place
i would open doors
just want to wish you well
and i don't want to lie no more
i would open doors
i would open doors
anywhere around
and i fear Brianna
is six feet underground
and i could not apologize
enough to set me free
so if you see Brianna won't you
tell her this for me
i would open doors
help you on your way
i don't want to lie no more
i think i've found my place
so what are you waiting for
i just want to wish you well
and i don't want to call no more
and i would open doors

i just want to wish you well
and i don't want to lie no more
i would open doors
so what are you waiting for
i'll help you on your way
i don't want to lie no more
i think i've found my place
i would open doors
just want to wish you well
and i don't want to lie no more
i would open doors
i would open doors
