I saw the note folded in the screen
Can't make out what it means
It's the perfect day to get away
Call in sick and we can take the train
I'm still searching for a thing i'm trying to say
What kind of difference do you think it makes?
It was warm the day we all came back
You chase the hallways while l fill the bath
There's a song of his she used to sing
Back when her hands could barely reach the sink
I'm still searching for a thing I'm trying to say
What kind of difference do you think it makes?
Kids up on the roof
Playing thumbtack parachutes
Bikes out in the yard
Ten days till it's due
Far from any corner
And a note that says I love you
She said the cold it really tears me up
I had to walk the whole way home
Did they call you back about that job?
I'm sick of waiting for a shoe to drop
I'm still searching for the thing I'm trying to say

The time it takes to leave no trace
We're here before we're done
A fear to shift that's how we miss
The calm before the storm
And I just took it on the chin
count your blessings and begin
Some words exchanged, enunciate
That's how we missed the mark
An empty thought, a twisted knot
you whispered in the dark
Daydream happiness will come, you know
We're patient waiting to explode
Everything is alright
That's what you want to hear
The only problem with the truth
Is you sound so insincere
A slow parade to turn the page
Some hollow cross to bear
The lines we seek, the gravity
that pulls it from the air
Repeat the bleeding heart cliche
Bend the patterns into shapes
Everything is alright
That's what you want to hear
The only problem with the truth
is you sound so insincere

One Thing

Hey I'm sorry that the rain keeps making us wait
My head's half empty and I think there's nothing to say
It's something you can't see, not a guilty plea
The way I'm feeling is the one thing I can't change
The vines stopped creeping up the fence, surrender the shade
The birds keep singing all the same songs every day
Watch the colors fade, you can make it ok
If we flip that hourglass and fill some empty space
There's a rhyme and a light
That everything gets through
So it goes, now I know
What we came out here to do
Tiptoe river left us cold and bitter one time
Old nails find a way engraved our names in the pine
There's nothing out here to buy as long as you don't try
We could be half-heart breaking just in case, wasting time
Found some balance twisting winds a tightrope race
The last time out it was the worst thing we could have faced
You never did quite see, honest disagree
She said I'm glad you're leaving but I wish you wouldn't stay
Got that right it's only one thing
Missed the signs, it's never one thing
The way I'm feeling is the one thing I can't change

Miracleworker New Jersey
The band started as an experiment in late bloomer acoustic guitar songwriting. New Brunswick punk icon Chris Ross saw a path to making a 'real band,' and soon enough East Coast hardcore vet Dan Cav joined in on the fun.
