Injury Loves Melody - 01 I Am
Take what you can when you can/ Cause the life you have will pass you by/ I never should have left all my trust in someone/ Who would leave me hanging by a thread, and watch me as I hung/ I am faith, I am hate, I am no one but me/ I am rage, I am shame, I am someone to be/ Rome is on top of the world/ But my broken fingers couldn’t reach/ A superhero came through the crowd/ Preaching how all my darkest visions never had a shadow of a doubt/ I am faith, I am hate, I am no one but me/ I am rage, I am shame, I am someone to be/ Cunning faces seem so different/ But they all look the same/ Heaven save us from the shameless choices we have to change/ And the faces that’ll never cry will always stay the same/ I am faith, I am hate, I am no one but me/ I am rage, I am shame, I am someone to be/

Injury Loves Melody - 02 Tidal
Drink me like a Dixie cup/ And throw me out with all the used love/ You think you might finally had enough/ I don’t think you’re ordinary/ Hopefully not temporary/ Quicksand is the water I am treading/ Here come the shakes/ Nothing is faded/ Another Tidal Wave of love has crashed on me/ It’s not the same/ Something’s changing/ And you’re the tidal wave of love that’s crashed on me. Swimming in a raincoat sleeve/ I think I know you’re just what I need/ There is nothing left for you to leave/ Pull back, and fade to black/ Woke up spitting seaweed off of my face/ Here come the shakes/ Nothing is faded/ And you’re the tidal wave of love that’s crashed on me/ It’s not the same/ Something’s changing/ And you’re the tidal wave of love that’s crashed on me. Staring for days/ In limbo too late to travel that road/ Squint your eyes/ Look at what you know.

Injury Loves Melody - 03 Karma
Starting from the end/ The worst is the best thing that I ever knew/ Moses is my friend/ Since I’m playing second fiddle in the duet/ Paying for what I am regretting/ Sometimes you get what you want/ Sometimes you get what you need/ You’re always gonna get what you deserve/ It’s all about what you want/ If you can get what you need/ You’re always gonna get what… Elvis isn’t dead/ He’s just on vacation with Jim Morrison/ Sold my sould again/ While I was whistling dixie in a panic/ Beelzebub was clapping frantically/ Sometimes you get what you want/ Sometimes you get what you need/ You’re always gonna get what you deserve/ It’s all about what you want/ If you can get what you need/ You’re always gonna get what…

Injury Loves Melody - 04 Tell Her This
Tell her this, I don’t like to kiss/ I know that it’s something I’ll miss/ Tell her that, I’ll never be late/ As long she’ll be there to/ Wait for me… Tell her this, my tongue’s in a twist/ I ran through a confident fist/ Tell her that the gypsy was real/ December is what makes the toe cramps and stomach aches/ Hard to heal… And it don’t mean a thing/ If you can’t try to be/ What you’re always expecting from me Tell her this, I’ll never be rich/ And Christmas was always a bitch/ Tell her that I still feel the same/ But in between me and you, we see things better/ And it don’t mean a thing/ If you can’t try to be/ What you’re always expecting from me… Still in my underwear watching some re-runs of anything/ I can’t forget/ New York is still on my mind, but I’m trapped here in Tennessee/ Still with regret/ Tell her this, I don’t like to kiss/ I know that it’s something I’ll miss/ And it don’t mean a thing/ If you can’t try to be/ What you’re always expecting from me…

Injury Loves Melody - 05 Wide Eyes (Photograph So Well)
Ten years wasted, passing time like quarterbacks/ Seniors lined up for their reunion photographs/ Ten years passing, I’ve got a full mouth, so much to say/ Leaping forward, I guess this is what they all became/ You ran from your life, are you satisfied? Years did us well/ Fools now honored/ Wide eyes photograph so well/ Feeling awkward, now I got the chance to be the man/ Your face changed so, but I recognize your pretentious stare/ You ran from your life, are you satisfied? Years did us well/ Fools now honored/ Wide eyes photograph so well/ You ran from your life, are you satisfied? Years did us well/ Fools now honored/ Wide eyes photograph so well/

Injury Loves Melody - 06 Losers of the Year
Tell the kids today, I’m not afraid/ I got a hand full of dust/ And a mouth full of pain/ Want out… We all want out (repeat 2x) Made some bad mistakes/ Those are the breaks/ I got a patriot high/ With some symbolic quakes/ Can’t see the sun spots, through the domestic haze/ Can’t hide the makeup, cause you never can see, never can breathe/ Want out… We all want out (repeat 2x) Replace the name on your designer jeans with a flame/ Income taxes for the youth/ Intellect is all we know/ And I believe this time that it’s an uphill climb/ You have to hold on tight/ The weight’s too heavy now/ Want out… We all want out (repeat 2x)

Injury Loves Melody - 07 Leaving with a California Tilt
I never thought the day would come when she would say goodbye/ She’s leaving with a California tilt to live her life/ Instead, I’m getting tired of holding back the words I want to say/ I ran myself into the ground just hoping you would say/ She left… On her own through twisted roads/ She left on her own again (repeat 2x) Everything has got to end, but good things never leave/ A Southern man once told me that love isn’t what it means/ She left… On her own through distant roads/ She left on her own again (repeat 2x) She left on her own…

Injury Loves Melody - 08 The Way That I Feel
There’s a crack in the stack when you find that you’re on your own/ Raising stakes in the race, selling out so you don’t get sold/ Something for nothing hasn’t been left for me/ Tear away everything and I’m wearing memories/ Take a chance on a chance, try leapfrog with a unicorn/ Figure out when to shout when you sit on a corporate thorn/ I bet you sleep tight every night wondering/ If the one you’ve become is what you hated/ The more I gave, the more you take/ Why can’t you stay? What should I do? Now that we’re through/ One thing is true/ The way that I feel/ YEA! Have a drink on the fink ‘till we kill off the disco fad/ Fuzzy dice mixed with ice, give it up for the other man/ I’m getting cold shakes from the state that I’m in/ Your getting colder, I’m getting older/ Stop the landslide/ The more I gave, the more you take/ Why can’t you stay? What should I do? Now that we’re through/ One thing is true/ The way that I feel/ I’m pulling hair in despair/ Cracker Jacks for the funeral/ Pull a shade, so I can break the walls around me/ What should I do? Now that we’re through/ One thing is true/ The way that I feel for you/

Injury Loves Melody - 09 Last Time I Saw Memphis
And the sparks are stacked/ For a southern girl/ She raised her popcorn bag/ To the blue suede world/ Should I take you back? Should I stay? Let’s just wave/ Say goodbye (repeat 3x) Lipstick to the mud/ Chewing up old times/ I can’t forget enough/ For the rest of my life/ Should I take you back? Should I stay? Lets just wave/ Say goodbye (repeat 3x) I walk in the space between the/ Jesus freaks and velvet geeks/ Around myself and back again/ Hoping to find myself but/ But all we are is all we’ll ever be/ Say goodbye (repeat 3x)

Injury Loves Melody - 10 35
Momma holds my dreary head/ When a splinter digs my skin/ Money ain’t tight when the money’s gone/ She rights me when I’m wrong/ All alone/ On your own/ Now You’re 35/ All alone/ Cold as stone/ Now you’re 35/ Crafty words dripped through the screen/ But I know she loves me better/ Jealous of a rich boy in the mud/ Your liquor is thicker than blood/ All alone/ On your own/ Now You’re 35/ All alone/ Cold as stone/ Now you’re 35/ All alone/ On your own/ Now You’re 35/ All alone/ Cold as stone/ Now you’re 35/

Injury Loves Melody - 11 I Don't Have The Nerve
Forget all you know of the nameless revolution/ They can hear all the things you said/ I don’t have the nerve/ I don’t have the nerve/ I don’t have the words to say/ I don’t have the nerve/ It’s alright to know the television owns you/ Clone yourself, then fuck yourself/ I don’t have the nerve/ I don’t have the nerve/ I don’t have the words to say/ I don’t have the nerve/
