I'm gonna hang my heart
up on the shelf tonight
I'm gonna hang my heart
up on the shelf to dry
There is no sleeping
what with the bleeding
So, I'm gonna hang my heart
up on the shelf to dry
You ask me why
I look to the sky
Cuz there is no consolation
Like the constellations
I've tried
There is no one like me
sad as I am tonight
Honey, you cannot know
this pain is only mine
this pain only mine
only mine
You ask me why
I look to the sky
Cuz there is no consolation
Like the constellations
I've tried
There is no sleeping for the
bleeding. There is no sleeping for
the bleeding. There is no sleeping...
for the bleeding
for the bleeding
for the bleeding
for the bleeding
No sleeping for the bleeding
No sleeping for the bleeding
No sleeping for the bleeding
No sleeping for the bleeding

Back Way

There's a back way
Could I not know my own heart?
There's a back way
Could I not know my own part?
And could I
tell it to you
if I don't know it myself?
And could I
tell it to you
if I don't know it myself?
if I don't know it myself?
if I don't know it myself?
There's a breaker off
Tell your maker there's something wrong
There's a breaker off
Tell your maker there's something wrong
Something wrong
Something wrong
Do you remember when
we got along?
Oh, do you remember when
we got along?
Say I go away for a while,
will it pay off? Will you stay off
my mind?
Say I go away for a while,
will it pay off? Will you stay off
my mind?
When you're not far away enough
baby it's harder
you're not far away enough
baby it's harder
you're not far away enough
baby I know that it's
harder, harder, ooo...
Do you remember when
we got along?
Oh, do you remember when
we got along?
I know there's always a road
that leads to the start
Oh, do you remember when
we got along?

For Jack

Do you know that you
carry yourself so well?
No one knows the hell
You describe
Nobody can tell
But you're blue
blue as your eyes
blue as the ocean
is wide
Dark as the night
nothing is right
nothing is right
And your father he walked
across the sand
One thousand miles
On the way to the promised land
And your mother was born
in the wake of the storm
Two ships in the night
would finally find
their port in New York
And they carried the weight
they carried the weight
they carried the weight to shore
They carried the weight
they carried the weight
they carried the weight to shore
And your sister confided
that only was lonely and wanted to share
And your mother decided
the weight of one more was a weight
she could bear
But the water runs deep
and there are secrets we keep
in our blood from before we are born
We come into this life
none the wiser of struggle and strife
that our ancestors bore
We carry the weight
we carry the weight
we carry the weigh to shore
We carry the weight
we carry the weight
we carry the weigh to shore
And even when
we shed our skin
we're still the same
animal underneath
And we all have our origin
story we stick to
regardless of how
incomplete
And you grew up to be
a lovely and sweet
that you do not extend
to yourself
But you can always reel in
the anchor within
whenever you're ready
to sail
And I'll carry the weight
I'll carry the weight
I'll carry the weight of my love
I'll carry the weight
I'll carry the weight
I'll carry the weight of my love
And I'll carry the weight
I'll carry the weight
I'll carry the weight of my love
When you're floating away
out of sight, out of range I'll
carry the weight of my love
Ooo...

My Best Hello

Sunday's not a long way off
I know it feels so
Sunday's not a long way off
I know it feels so
I know it feels so
Stains on the ceiling
I give the stare down
It's real and I'm reeling
It won't be long now
It won't be long now
Here's my best hello
Here's my best hello
Here's my best hello
When I don't know
how to say hello
when I don't know
Ooo...
Here's my best hello
when I don't know
Here's my best hello
when I don't know
Here's my best hello
when I don't know
Here's my best hello
when I don't know...
