A Thing or Two

It doesn't matter what you do
There is always someone bigger and better than you
So what you got to lose
Oh, what you trying to prove
It doesn't matter where you've been
There is always someone waiting 'round the bend
No matter where you're going to
Or what you're going through
I've been lost, I've been found
I've been burned to the ground
And I think I've learned a thing or two
So bring me your stories
And sing me your song, and I will
I'll sing it back to you
It doesn't matter what you've done
There is no amount of love that's kept from you
Just gotta find a way to let it all through
I've been lost, I've been found
I've been burned to the ground
And I think I've learned a thing or two
So bring me your stories
And sing me your song, and I will
I'll sing it back to you
I'll sing it back to you
I'll sing it back to you

Animal

Take me to the moment when I lost your attention
Holding it over your head
Bitin' off the fingers that you point in my direction
Oh, but I swear I'm not
I'm not an animal
I'm not an animal
I only act like one
When I'm being attacked
I'm not an animal
I'm not an animal
I only howl like one
When the moon is full
Taking back the moments when I gave you my affection
I thought I heard you say it yourself
Reaching for the reasons I could challenge your intention
Oh, but I swear I'm not
I'm not an animal
I'm not an animal
I only act like one
When I'm being attacked
I'm not an animal
I'm not an animal
I only howl like one
When the moon is out

Beautiful Disaster
02:35

Would things get better if I ripped out the tether
That keeps us from drifting apart
I've been afraid of those very same things
I just buried them deeper inside
You said it yourself, what a beautiful disaster we are
Everything changed, but make no mistake
I would do it all over
I was too young, then, to know who I was
I just knew how I wished you would stay
Then came the summer of 2013
That's the first time I ran away
I had started to see what a beautiful disaster we are
We both tried to change, made the same old mistakes
Over and over
Please don't forget what a beautiful disaster we were
Let's keep the change and make better mistakes
Now that it's over

The Circus Song

You piss me off like no one can
But I can read our future in the palm of your hands
You turn me on like no body can
But then we go right back to breathing fire again
And if we were a circus
I'd be the clown
Then there's you on the high wire
Holding it down
I'm sorry if I ever gave you reason to doubt
Maybe we're a circus
But at least we've got a show now
You wear me out like no one else
But you're the one who's with me when I'm not well
You twist me up more than I can stand
But then we shape-shift until we're back together again
And if we were a circus
I'd be the freak show
And you're in the spotlight
Juggling rings
Oh, I'm sorry if I ever made you think I would leave
Maybe we're a circus
But the show was meant to be
And if we were a circus
You'd be the tamer
And I'd be the lion
On my best behavior
I'm sorry if I ever gave you reason to doubt
Maybe we're a circus
But at least we've got this show figured out
