SHIFT
Everything we’ve ever done
Or ever lost or ever won
Was only leading up to this
Special shift in emphasis
I know I’m kind of sensitive
Forgive me if
It gets a bit repetitive
But this is what I’m working with
The infinite
There’s such a vast amount of it
Much of it is counterfeit
It’s hard to find a way to get out of it
They're gonna make us work for it
Just a little bit
Haven’t seen the worst of it
Maybe we’ll never know
What the purpose is
Keep breaking through surfaces
Trying to interpret it
And learn from it
Even if it hurts a bit
Maybe we’ll never know
What the purpose is
Keep breaking through surfaces
Trying to interpret it
And learn from it
Even if it hurts a bit
Even if it hurts a bit

Commute

Distances traveled slow
They have this way of growing on you
Til you start driving fast
And find you've finally started to choose
Between the things that last
And those that barely pass for alive
It's such a long commute
I don't think I could handle the drive
I hope I survive
Don't sit there acting coy
This is between a boy and a girl
You throw your weight around
Like you're my only joy in the world
Distances traveled fast
They have this way of coming alive
It's such a long commute
I don't think I could handle the drive
I hope I survive
I hope I survive
I hope I survive

Get Out Of Jail

Caught you tryin' to run for cover
Caught you tryin' to leave again
Put you on the line for comfort
Kept you on the line for pain
Promise me you'll die empty
Just gather up your whole life
And let it make its way through you
And leave it on the floor
The keys are by the door
And you can get out of jail now
Because you've already done your time
And you can get out of jail now
Because you've already done your time
Yeah but promise me you'll die empty
Just gather up your whole life
And let it make its way through you
And leave it on the floor
The keys are by the door
And you can get out of jail now
Because you've already done your time
And you can get out of jail now
Because you've already done your time
You've already done your time
Yeah you've already done your time
You've done your time
And you can get out of jail now
Because you've already done your time
