"Testing The Atmosphere" (2006)

Walking Disaster Lyrics – Big 10-4

Could you validate me before you break me in,
And what you're calling a cheap shot well I took you on the chin,
It's never where you're going, It's always where you've been,
So where have you been,

And if you'd lead I blindly follow,
Down an empty street I'd lose my shadow,
I'm the sand in your hand watch me fall straight through,

I don't know why you're here or what you're after,
Talking to the, I'm the one they call the walking disaster,
Fell straight through, I took one step forward and fell straight backwards,
On the move, I'm the one they call the walking disaster,
It's just stupid noise,

Could you recreate me, I need a thicker skin,
And this soul you walked on baby is slowly wearing thin,
Could you elevate me so I can feel the wind,
Feel the wind,

And if you bleed the sharks will find you,
Lying underneath all that defines you,
I'm the sand in your hand watch me fall straight through,

I don't know why you're here or what you're after,
Talking to the, I'm the one they call the walking disaster,
Fell straight through, I took one step forward and fell straight backwards,
On the move, I'm the one they call the walking disaster,
It's just stupid noise,

I'm lost in the shadow hours,
Once theirs you know it won't be ours,
We fight but we fight to no avail,
We claim our life has gotten stale,
Hands free and nothing less the fear,
It's just me testing the atmosphere,
I'm testing the atmosphere,

I don't know why you're here or what you're after,
Talking to the, I'm the one they call the walking disaster,
Fell straight through, I took one step forward and fell straight backwards,
On the move, I'm the one they call the walking disaster,
It's just stupid noise,
So why are you here, and what are you after,
'Cause you talking to the walking disaster,
You'll let us know

Long Night (Sleepless) Lyrics – Big 10-4

She put an eviction note on the doorframe of her heart
What seems to melt togather just seems to shatter apart

So watch your feelings 'cause these peices can get very sharp
You have this talent for shooting down a shooting star

And the truth of a smart-ass is that im not very smart
It's gonna be a long night
Tonight
All the planets are alined
And that sounded just right

I wanna state for the record, I didn't mean to ruin her
I didn't mean to wreck her
It's gonna be a long night
Tonight

I took a vacation from all the things I should become
'Cause drivin' the nine to five never seemed like very much fun

Look in the mirror are you recognizing anyone?
You're overrated and you're weathered but you just begun
I gotta got hands all over this, 'cause I could never stop at one

It's gonna be a long night
Tonight
All the stars are alined
And the moon is just right

I wanna state for the record, I didn't mean to ruin her
I didn't mean to wreck her
It's gonna be a long night
Tonight

And my knees are bruised
From beggin' you (beggin' you)
I'm beggin you (beggin' you)
And if you need the news
Stand in line (stand in line)
'Cause we're all over
No

Are you sure you said yes just for the hell of it?
You've got one lie
What've you got to show for it?
I am a sleepwalker stuck inside a day-dream
I am just a sound-wave

It's gonna be a long night
Tonight
We've got our hands in the air
And the room's just right

I wanna state for the record, I didn't mean to ruin her
I didn't mean to wreck her

I had to be the song she couldn't shake from her head

It's gonna be a long night
Tonight

Irony Is Thick Lyrics – Big 10-4

Stepped over clothes, evidence of a late night fast food binge,
I threw on the same blue jeans just to do it all again,

For now these are the days I push through the crowds,
To make my way,

I'd feel a little better if I could steal a minute,
Push me right back or somewhere towards the middle,
I know I've been a little left of center,
These self-righteous thoughts burn inside my head again,
Are you there because the irony is thick,
The things that make me happy are the things, the things that make me sick,

Burried my phone, I don't think I'm going to show my face,
I called into work today, I'm a hopeless waste of space,

For now, these are the days I pray for the clouds,
And pull the shades,

I'd feel a little better if I could steal a minute,
Push me right back or somewhere towards the middle,
I know I've been a little left of center,
These self-righteous thoughts burn inside my head again,
Are you there because the irony is thick,
The things that make me happy are the things that make me sick,

And I've been worried about you,
Being worried about me,
Now I'm worried about me,

Are you there because the irony is thick,
The things that make me happy are the same things, the things that make me sick,
I'd feel a little better if I could steal a minute,
Push me right back or somewhere towards the middle,
I know I've been a little left of center,
These self-righteous thoughts burn inside my head again,
Are you there because the irony is thick,
The things that make me happy are the things that make me sick

Deadman Lyrics – Big 10-4

These blood shot eyes, they don't compromise,
And this dry cottonmouth, spits out words she can't figure out,
And I'm drowning on my bed, and the phone falls out of reach,
We'll I am like a dead man washed upon the beach,

Hold my head down under water,
And pull me up just to watch me suffer,
Headlights from your car,
Chase the shadows on my wall that kept me comfort,
But she loves to watch me suffer,

And these blood shot eyes, they don't recognize,
And the look on your face, you always seem so damn out of place,
And I'm crashed on your bed, and your hand falls out of reach,
I am like a dead man washed upon the beach,

Hold my head down under water,
And pull me up just to watch me suffer,
Headlights from your car,
Chase the shadows on my wall that kept me comfort,

We'll I am on my last nerve in case you haven't heard,
I burn with every word,
I close my eyes, you kick me in the side,
But I am still alive, I am still alive, I said I'm still alive,

Hold my head down under water,
And pull me up just to watch me sufferr,
She holds my head down under water,
But she pulls me up just to watch me suffer
I am what she thinks that I am I've become her dead man

Superpowers Lyrics – Big 10-4

When I walked in no heads turned around,
It was clear to me that the word had gone around,
People stand talking to the ground,
And it's so damn loud and I can't hear a sound,
I look around there's nowhere to escape,

It's times like these I wish I had my superpowers,
I would fly, get away from here,
And its time like these I had my superpowers,
I will freeze time and disappear, run away from here,

Slowly I walk through this crowd,
To see her face a little less proud,
If the walls could talk they'd tell me to run,
And not to stop until I hit the sun,
She wouldn't have it any other way,

It's times like these I wish I had my superpowers,
I would fly away from here,
And its time like these I had my superpowers,
I will freeze time and disappear, run away from here,

Oh I've been wasting all of my breath saying I'm sorry,
Run away from you, and away from here,

It's times like these I wish I had my superpowers,
I would fly, get away from here,
And its time like these I had my superpowers,
I will freeze time and disappear, run away from here, disappear

Tangled Lyrics – Big 10-4

I've been through enough to know I've seen enough,
I'm done acting brave, I'm done acting tough,
'Cause getting tripped up every step provokes this change in mood,
And I'm sick and tired of feeling sick and tired,
And my 5 a.m.'s why am I so wired,
I've walked a million miles pacing corners of this room,

And oh the chase, I'll be in the lead but I'll blow the race,
I couldn't trust in love,
Push will come to shove and wipe that smile off your face,

My frustrated hands can't untangle this,
I'm waiting for the flipside of this world,
My frustrated hands hold this beautiful mess,
And I'm laying on the ground,
Without a sound I'm spinning around again,

And what works for you won't work for me,
These bumper sticker philosophies,
Your clich©s and your theories that you're never gonna prove,
What can go wrong it will go wrong,
That's the reason why I wrote this song,
I'm running up the white flag because we know who's gonna lose,

And oh it's the taste, it's that bitter sweet It's your sour face,
You couldn't trust in love,
Push will come to shove and wipe that smile off your face,

My frustrated hands can't untangle this,
I'm waiting for the flipside of this world,
My frustrated hands hold this beautiful mess,
And I'm laying on the ground,
Without a sound I'm spinning around again,

And it tears me to pieces every time I fall,
And it tears me to pieces again,

I am so inspired by the uninspired,
'Cause what they've got you know I don't desire,
Running out the front door with the two finger solute,

My frustrated hands can't untangle this,
I'm waiting for the flipside of this world,
My frustrated hands hold this beautiful mess,
And I'm laying on the ground,
Without a sound I'm spinning around again,
We're spinning around again

Crazy Lyrics – Big 10-4

Slow it down, Slow it down again,
I think I'm lost here, I think I'm lost my friend,
I made a left when I should have gone right,
I'm feeling lucky just watching you tonight,

And you move around with such grace,
You remove your hair from your face,

'Cause you're driving me, so damn crazy
'Cause you're driving me, so damn crazy

Beauty is in the eyes of me,
'Cause all I see is you staring back at me,
You are my queen and I am at your feet,
And I'm begging you to choose me,

Just to see your smile and to hear your voice,
I'd wait forever it's your choice,

'Cause you're driving me, so damn crazy
'Cause you're driving me, so damn crazy

Please forgive me for love restrained and lack of patience,
Wildfires, butterflies, playful eyes of misbehaving,

Slow it down slow it down tonight,
I want make you feel so right,
I'd let you do to me baby what you please,
I'd let you take complete control of me,

And you put your hands on my chest,
And through my hair girl I must confess,
When you whisper so soft in my ears,
Your everything I need to feel,

'Cause you're driving me, so damn crazy
'Cause you're driving me, so damn crazy

Hold That Thought Lyrics – Big 10-4

They put there fingers to his lips I heard them say hold that thought,
He went to war with all the demons in his head they said it wasn't his fault,

You know if you need some time well I think I can find it,
And you're going down, but I think we can fly this thing,

Heavy, all this weight is on the inside,
But we're coming clean on the outside,
I hope, I know what I have got myself into,
A straight shot, I'm a gutterfly in the dark sky,
I'm still hitting all of the red lights,
I know, I hope that I will burn in your afterglow,

Hand in hand I walked the ghost to the ledge, they'd love to watch me fall,
He woke up with the angels in my bed, oh my god, screaming oh my god,

And If you need some time I will buy it,
And we're going down, but I think we can fly this thing,

Heavy, all this weight is on the inside,
But we're coming clean on the outside,
I hope, I know, what I got myself into,
A straight shot I'm the butterfly into the blue sky,
I'm still hitting all of the red lights,
I hope, I know that I will burn in your afterglow,

They put their fingers to his lips I heard them say hold that thoguht,
He woke up with the angels in his bed, screaming oh my god, screaming oh my god,

Heavy, all this weight is on the inside,
But we're coming clean on the outside,
I hope, I know what I have got myself into,
Heavy, all this weight is on the inside,
I'm coming clean on the outside,
I hope I know you will not hold this againt me

Undertow Lyrics – Big 10-4

I'm bored, I just thought I'd let you know,
That your world dragged me down like undertow once again,
Face first, I saw it all in slow mo,
Good things, they just seem to come and go like good friends, So Go,

Well I am cynical if you wanna understate,
'Cause you're right I really don't appreciate anything,
You leave, and then you start to hesitate,
Simple, then you start to complicate everything,
You can leave, 'cause I won't stop you,

You walk around like you do,
You shake your head like you knew,
Choke down the words 'til your blue,
I wouldn't talk if I were you, wouldn't talk if I were you,

It's my fault, guess I should have let you know,
Your world dragged me down like undertow once again,
It's my drink, please don't let it overflow,
Set them up I'll knock them down in a row with my friends, So Go,

Well I break down when I try to concentrate,
Ignore then you overcompensate every time,
I guess you really needed your space,
Tattooed you won't erase this face from your mind,
You can try, but will try too,

You walk around like you do,
You shake your head like you knew,
Choke down the words 'til your blue,
I wouldn't talk if I were you, wouldn't talk if I were you,

Headstrong and open wide, I always fail to see both sides,
It takes it toll on me, don't take yourself so seriously,
Headstrong and open wide, I rarely fail to see both sides,
It takes its toll on me, don't take yourself so seriously,
'Cause I never took you seriously, so go,

Well I am cynical if you wanna understate,
'Cause you're right I really don't appreciate anything,
I guess you really needed your space,
Tattooed you won't erase this face from your mind,
You can try, but will try too,

You walk around like you do,
You shake your head like you knew,
Choke down the words 'til your blue,
I wouldn't talk if I were you, wouldn't talk if I were you

Long Distance Lyrics – Big 10-4

You arrived at my doorstep, brought in with the tide,
You told them that you're coming, but I bet you lied,
Mr. Distance couldn't chain you down, but you know he'll try,
I let you in, but you took me inside,

And now I'm falling for you that's the best I can do because I'm clumsy,
I wanted to wait, then I got a taste, now I'm hungry,
I wanted to be what you think you see, but I'm nothing,
Then I caught a glare in your two-second stare now I'm something,
Oh no, oh how you came a live

Polished bottles of wine and an empty pizza box,
You stand there naked only in your socks,
The nonbelievers they can't stop us now, but you know they'll try,
Lock the doors and the windows just to keep them outside,

And now I'm falling for you that's the best I can do because I'm clumsy,
I wanted to wait, then I got a taste, now I'm hungry,
I wanted to be what you think you see, but I'm nothing,
Then I caught a glare in your two-second stare now I'm something,

Oh no, oh how you came alive,
Mr. Distance couldn't chain you down, but you know he'll try,
I let you in, but you took me inside,

And now I'm falling for you that's the best I can do because I'm clumsy,
I wanted to wait, then I got a taste, now I'm hungry,
I wanted to be what you think you see, but I'm nothing,
Then I caught a glare in your two-second stare now I'm something,
And now I'm falling for you that's the best I can do because I'm clumsy,
I wanted to wait, then I got a taste, now I'm hungry,
Oh no, oh how you came alive,
Underneath all that you are, all of the candlelight

The Smell Of Familiar Lyrics – Big 10-4

There's venom on your tongue,
Silver linings, sugarcoating, ultimatums,
And I swear I won't regret you,
Fingers crossed, when you're at a loss,
You'll analyze your life story,

Take take that back while you're standing there,
The frozen words stuck in mid air,
And in your tracks I'll stop you still,
'Cause I still have got this love give,

It's the perfect confusion or the realist illusion,
It's the idea that I will feel brand new again,
In a crowd of a million she's the smell of familiar,
She's the hand that reaches back to pull me over,
And I am, dooh,

You're obvious distaste,
Overshadows, understanding, your hands on your waist,
And I swore I won't forget you,
I close my eyes, when count to ten, it's you again, I said who am I kidding

Take that back while you're standing there,
These frozen words stuck in mid air,
And in your tracks I'll stop you still,
'Cause I still have got this love to give,

It's the perfect confusion or the realist illusion,
It's the idea that I will feel brand new again,
In a crowd of a million she's the smell of familiar,
She's the hand that reaches back to pull me over,
And I am, dooh,

Take it back while you're standing there,
These frozen words I catch in mid air,
And if you've got this love to give,
I can use your second wind,
And I know you will do better, and I know you won't settle,

It's the perfect confusion or the realist illusion,
It's the idea that I can feel brand new again,
In a crowd of a million she's the smell of familiar,
You're the hand that reaches back to pull me over,
It's the perfect confusion or the realist illusion,
You're the idea oh you're the idea,
In a crowd of a million she's the smell of familiar,
She's the hand that reaches back,
I am over

Oxygen Lyrics – Big 10-4

Standing at my door,
You float like smoke across my floor,
'Cause you're in the air,
Your chemicals are everywhere,
You flow throw me,
Sound waves and energies,
I channeled in your frequencies,
And your static electricities,
And you're so pure that way, Yeah 'cause you're so perfect that way,

I don't care I'm in the calm watching waves roll over me,
Uncover you, over me, hovering,
Blues and grays begin to fade in neon skies and clouded eyes,
The sun begins to break, it's your beautiful face,
And I don't know if these are the answers to questions,
Of loneliness, emptiness, loss of direction or the resolution to my deprivation,
'Cause I found oxygen in you, I breathe you like oxygen, I do,

And I love to watch you sleep,
Roll over steal the sheets,
Your body beckons me,
Sleep tightly in those dreams,
Yeah 'cause you're so pure that way, yeah 'cause you're perfect that way,

I don't care I'm in the calm watching waves roll over me,
Uncover you, over me, hovering,
Blues and grays begin to fade in neon skies and clouded eyes,
The sun begins to break, it's your beautiful face,
And I don't know if these are the answers to questions,
Of loneliness, emptiness, loss of direction or the resolution to my deprivation,
'Cause I found oxygen in you, I breathe you like oxygen, I do,

In and out, in and out of your reality,
Oh you're in the air, you don't know but you love to breathe
In and out, weightless gravity,
Oh you're in the air with every breathe you love to save me
And I don't know if these are the answers to questions,
Of loneliness, emptiness, loss of direction or the resolution to my deprivation,
Don't cut me off no, you don't know but you love to breathe me, no don't
