We Were Here 03:37
VERSE 1: Let’s take a ride down the coastal highway Find ourselves an abandoned little hideaway Write our names in the leaves of an aloe plant What’s wrong with that? Or take a chance on a dance club road trip LA to SoHo picking up glowsticks Spell it out with big purple words in the air Everywhere CHORUS: We were here We were here, yeah Life’s too short to live it on the down low I want the whole wide world to know We were here VERSE 2: I got the urge to cruise out to Malibu I’m so there for a double dare tattoo A souvenir of the crazy thoughts we had Or maybe we’ll look back on a Real good time just hanging out Play our guitars in the next random town Sing some songs to make all the people smile They’ll remember the night CHORUS Yeah INSTRUMENTAL BREAK CHORUS 2: We were here We were here, yeah Life’s too short to live it on the down low I want the whole wide world to know Life’s too short to live it on the down low I want the whole wide world to know We were here We were here, yeah

VERSE 1: I’m made a little different but I’m not broken Nineteen years in and I’m still learning This road may be rough but I know where I’m going CHORUS: Something in the blood Running inside me Keeps me pushing through Something in the blood That’s what drives me Keeps me fighting just like you A little bit of spark, a whole lotta fire It’s there in everyone Something in the blood VERSE 2: “Why’d this happen to me?” that’s not the question “What can I do?” is the one that I’m asking I’m chasing my dreams, it’s just who I am CHORUS BRIDGE: Sometimes I wanna quit Somedays it gets ugly Somehow I rise above it CHORUS Something in the blood Something in the blood I’m made a little different but I’m not broken

Wild Rose 03:40
VERSE 1: She’s a bundle of tangled up mixed emotions Unsteady as a full moon on the ocean Never knows if she’s gonna sink or swim this time On the outside you would never know That on the inside she feels all alone Like the winter cold, she’s waiting on the sun to shine CHORUS: She’s a wild rose Sweet and beautiful, oh whoa She’ll fake a smile when, All the while she, Just need someone there to hold her close She’s a wild, wild rose VERSE 2: She’s an “I don’t want to tell you what I’m about” Boxed up in her room screaming, “Let me out!” But at the same time she does want to let you in She’s a “leave me alone, but come back soon” Kind of woman with a little girl attitude Afraid that her own thorns will break her skin CHORUS BRIDGE: Makes you want to tell her This won’t last forever Just hold your head up high And know... CHORUS Wild, wild rose Wild, wild rose

VERSE 1: There’s a trusty old, rusted out wood paneled wagon Sitting in the Californian mud Time is a tide pool that never stops turning And somewhere the surf’s always up CHORUS 1: When the palm trees shiver The dolphins remember The Harleys that rumbled like thunder The tourists leave town The shops all shut down At the end of the endless summer VERSE 2: Nobody lives in that ramshackle kingdom Of cottages down on the beach 21 ghosts built from boards of old shipwrecks A man with no name sold their dreams CHORUS 2: When the palm trees shiver The dolphins remember The long lonely song of winter The locals leave town With nothing but the sound Of the end of the endless summer INSTRUMENTAL BREAK CHORUS 3: The ferris wheel sits up high on the pier The last standing small town wonder The truth is reflected in the house of mirrors It’s the end of the endless summer The end of the endless summer OUTRO: Time is a tide pool that never stops turning And somewhere the surf’s always up
