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
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
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

And my thoughts of a busy day

You know i worked all day then the sun went down at five

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
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
