Lets go!
Open up the window
So i can see these trees bending over me
Weve got one chance
So lets believe in something
Even if it brings us nothing
We'll always have this chorus
So sing it out
Bright eyes
Have you ever wondered
What we could do and discover
My God this feels brand new
Everything just stops when im with you
Oh my love!
Have you ever wondered
What we could do and discover
My God this feels brand new
Everything just stops when im with you
Like the leaves that fall
So winter has its day
Ill gladly give myself away
To hear you say youre hear to stay
With my....
Bright eyes
Have you ever wondered
What we could do and discover
My God this feels brand new
Everything just stops when im with you
Oh my love!
Have you ever wondered
What we could do and discover
My God this feels brand new
Everything just stops when im with...
Cut to a porch
Two people sit together
Both old now but
Never feeling better
Family pictures
Cover all their dressers
With priceless treasures
Bright eyes
Have you ever wondered
What we could do and discover
My God this feels brand new
Everything just stops when im with you
Oh my love!
Have you ever wondered
What we could do and discover
My God this feels brand new
Everything just stops when im with you
When I said for worse or better
I ment I would be all yours forever
I will place you at my center
You are more priceless than any treasure

I lay bare
All my secrets and affairs
To a group of strangers
Hoping someone cares
Cause if they dont
Down I go, depths of despair
All because no one liked the thoughts
I shared
Play pretend
With all my facebook friends
No stress to confess
The thoughts that i repress
Add a filter to my face
And a breakdown in a safe space
Social networks root away
The hope of a future past today
Shallow people
living out their lies
Face glued too a screen
Everybody tries
To be the guy
who buys the biggest size
All to impress
People they despise
Its ok
Throw that money away
You can finally
Have the chance to say
That you bought what they got
But what they got only costs alot
Social networks rot away
their hope Of a future past today
Little children
Living out their lives
On youtube seeing stuff
That should never reach their eyes
And still we wonder why
Theyre desensitized
While we redefine and twist
Whats wrong or right
I hate the way
We spend hours everyday
Staring at a screen
To see what people say
Did we forget
Life will pass by if we let it
Social networks rot away
Our hope for a future past today

Open yourself to a city
That has you bound in your ways
And dont think too much
Cause good change is tough
And half hearted is good enough
Beg to bleed
And dont give
Unless you recieve
Then choose to believe
That they just dont percieve
A simple minded perception
Youre so in need
Open your heart to a city
That takes everyone that you love
Dont place blame above
When push comes to shove
And half hearted is not good enough
Beg to bleed
And dont give
Unless you recieve
Then choose to believe
That they just dont percieve
A simple minded perception
Youre so in need

Darling you
Dont have to be afraid
Ill carry you
Through any hurt or pain
And ill be your clarity
Cause life can be insane
And i will be your shelter
Through the rain
You are everything I will ever love
Above the songs the birds will sing
Beauty like the setting sun
What have i done?
I dont deserve you cause
Youre all the things
Im undeserving of
Darling you
Make every single day
Im so amazed
By every word you say
Times will get tough
But ill always find a way
To make sure
that youre always happy
And okay
You are everything I will ever love
Above the songs the birds will sing
Beauty like the setting sun
What have i done?
I dont deserve you cause
Youre all the things
Im undeserving of
You are everything I will ever love
Above the songs the birds will sing
Beauty like the setting sun
What have i done?
I dont deserve you cause
Youre all the things
Im undeserving of
Oh yeah,
Youre all the things
Im undeserving of

Its so stupid
To be so anxious
Over things i cant control
Maybe if i woke up somewhere
Sunny and warm
Id have a smile on my face again
But im still stuck in Pennsylvania
Where the Winters are long and cold
And the sun only shows its face
A few hours or more
And each day is shorter
Than the one before
When will this season end
I need to see my friends again
Cause we're all trapped inside
Waiting on the spring time
When will i
Catch a break
and not have to pay
For mistakes i didnt make
Cause theres not much more i can take
When it comes to winter
Its so stupid
Having a long goodbye
With someone who you know
Is already gone
Maybe it is hope that keeps us
Coming back for more
Its crazy how much someone in love
Can endure
When will this season end
I need to see my friends again
Cause we're all trapped inside
Waiting on the spring time
When will i
Catch a break
and not have to pay
For mistakes i didnt make
Cause theres not much more i can take
When it comes to winter
The winter gets me frustrated
Over things i cant control
And i know the spring time will make it
Better once more
And i wont have to be this frustrated
Anymore
When will this season end
I need to see my friends again
Cause we're all trapped inside
Waiting on the spring time
When will i
Catch a break
and not have to pay
For mistakes i didnt make
Cause theres not much more i can take
When it comes to winter
(When will this season end
I need to see the flowers blossom
And my patience is wearing thin
Waiting for the spring to begin again)

I stood by
And watched the day say
"reminisce, sit back, whats on your mind?"
Goodbye though
Its not to see you on your way
To things greater than I
So run across my mind
Like ghostly figures
Dancing on the spot
In which they were made that way
Its all a game that i was forced to play
Should I have quit the team and moved down south?
Where the trees hang low
above my broken heart
Where the taste of your lips
evaporate for someone else
Where the memories of you
Set sail across the southern breeze
Where I can finally be free
Mischief dwells
On the south east corner of my town
Where i laid to rest
Everyone that i knew
For you
But what does really matter?
Nothing at all
Did you find your way out
As i was forced to move down south
Where the trees hang low
above my broken heart
Where the taste of your lips
evaporate for someone else
Where the memories of you
Set sail across the southern breeze
Where I can finally be free
Cause life is a sort of
"catching up" for me
But doesn that go for all of us
Who are trying to live out our
Fantisies
And most people say
They hate guys like me
But that doesnt mean i cant
Try to better myself
Or my so called, reality.

For My Daughters
04:28

I remember praying to God
For a family when I was nine years old
You see, that is all i wanted
Not riches and not fame
Just kids to bear my name
So imagine my reaction
When your eyes met with mine
For the very first time
It was the best day of my life
And you both are so amazing
And you grow so fast its crazy
Youre the best things in my life
I will be your comfort
When youre sad
I will be a happy thought
When times are bad
I will always be there for
Whatever you may go through
Theres nothing that i wont do
To be the best that i can be for you

the longest winter Punxsutawney, Pennsylvania
the longest winter has always been about honest, open, and personal songs. all written as a way to vent when alone, however once I (gabe) started playing shows consistantly I asked anthony to join on guitar and more recently paul on drums and Alex Rubenstein on bass. both amazing guys and a perfect fit for what we hope to accomplish. ... more
