I was a fool now I'm sleeping with my demons
I was convinced that you and I just made sense
I'll play it cool for a while 'till you come 'round
Now my whole world, my world's a crumbling down
I'll shake the sheets, you won't let go, oh no
I'm right between disaster and just fine
I'm walking that line
I'm walking that line
There's gonna be an avalanche, but I'm alright
Yeah, I'm alright
I've made mistakes but tonight is the last one
I'll let you in for an evening and then I'll run
Run for my life gotta get out of this town
Run from these mountains they're coming down
I'll brave the peaks but you'll follow, oh no
I'm right between disaster and just fine
I'm walking that line
I'm walking that line
There's gonna be an avalanche, but I'm alright
Yeah, I'm alright
I've been away and it's getting to my head
I can't see the truth all I see is you instead
A quick escape was all that I asked for
I feel the warm but my head is sore
Just one more sip from the bottle, oh no
I'm right between disaster and just fine
I'm walking that line
I'm walking that line
There's gonna be an avalanche, but I'm alright
Yeah, I'm alright
I'm right between disaster and just fine
I'm walking that line
I'm walking that line
There's gonna be an avalanche, but I'm alright
Yeah, I'm alright

Take It Slow (Acoustic)

Baby, I don't know what haste is, but they say I make a lot of it
I don't even know what I'm chasing, but I think I've almost caught it
You don't need a map if you don't have a destination
You don't need an atlas if you're just running to run
Baby, take it slow
Take some time to sink into the low notes
Oh, I'm knee deep in courage, but I'm up to my neck in excuses
That I justify by all the sleepless nights
Am I ready for the fight, am I ready?
You don't need a shield if you can't feel the blow to your chin
You don't need a door if you're not planning to let me in
Baby, come back home
Take some time to feel safe all alone
I try to be genuine, but there's a difference between trying and being
Sometimes I can be as shallow as a kiddie pool, but I feel like the goddamn ocean

Hound (Acoustic)

Why can't I open my mouth?
Man, I'm thinking too loud
Is it 'cause I'm too proud?
Just say it out loud, loud, loud
I've been losing sleep
Mixed melatonin and keef
Just to feel some relief
Set me wild, set me free, set me free, set me free
We've been breaking ground
Subtle moves I have found
But you've been riding me 'round
Hunt me like a hound, hound, hound
The rabbit and the hound
The rabbit and the hound
Where can I go when I can't hide underground?

Wine (Acoustic)

Couple months and you'll be gone
Just like it was before
Before the days grew long and the nights felt better
Than hanging on in stormy weather
Couple months and you'll be knocking at my door
But I don't live here anymore
So don't come by 'cause I won't answer
I'm locked up tight in my own head, still, I crave the sun
I miss you like wine
Oh, so sweet and always, always on my mind
I'm holding tight
Counting miles by the minutes, hold on
I can't forget to turn out the light
What a mess this has become
For my head and the functioning of my lungs
'Cause I can't breathe when I'm around you
But I can't sleep when I'm not beside you
My love is thorough, it is strong
It's wrong for this culture of kiss and move along
'Cause I've been hurt, yeah, I've been beaten
Oh, all I want is some relief from my own head
I miss you like wine
Oh, so sweet and always, always on my mind
I'm holding tight
Counting miles by the minutes, hold on
I can't forget to turn out the light, the light, the light
Nobody fell in love with me
That night at my show
So since then I've been going it alone, alone
I miss you like wine
Oh, so sweet and always, always on my mind
I'm holding tight
Counting miles by the minutes, hold on
I can't forget to turn out the light
