Wasting My Time
02:33

I know you and you know me
And I ain't got the time
Or the sympathy
'Cause I know what you are
And I know what I'm not
So for my sake of sanity
It's better forgot
That you're wasting my time
You said you'd be a friend
Well all you've been is afraid
You said you'd be my rock
well show me how that rock gets made
'Cause I think that you're scared
'Cause you know that I might be
That single thing you need
A truth in possibilities
Have you suffered the cost?
Or are you wasting my time?

Jack Rose

Jack Rose wanted a dynasty
He wanted something to protect
When in the end he's a middleman
When in the end he's got nothing left
Get it off, get it off, get it off
Get it off, get it off your chest
The name on the paper's not the same as the test
Oh Jack Rose, I think there's something
Everyone else knows about you
Jack Rose wanted a legacy
He wanted something to protect
Nothing above him and nothing below
Yeah in the end he's got nothing left
He says his prayers and goes to bed
At night and says he'll be a king
But I know him and you know him
Jack your rattle's not so loud
That I could find you in a crowd
But I know him and you know him
He says Daddy where've you gone
And I don't know how to respond
'Cause I know him and you know him
He says Daddy where've you gone
And I don't know how to respond
'Cause I know him and you know him
Get it off, get it off, get it off
Get it off, get it off your chest
The name on the paper's not the same as the test
Oh Jack Rose, I think there's something
Everyone else knows about you

Croesus Curse
02:41
|
|

Spending the dollar to fall on the dime
Searching for all the time
That we wasted all of our lives
When the Midas touch of your greenest thumb
Defaults into an alternate state
Will you bend or will you break
I don't want to be the one
Hang your shackles on the wall
They won't support you when you fall
It's a Croesus Curse
You check your wallet I'll check my watch
Searching for all the time
That we wasted all of our lives
Does the absence of riches enrich your health
Or is it in fact the wealth
Of the absence itself that helps
I don't know why you're frightened
