Outside 02:10
Pack up my bags Get in my car and just drive I wanna go Go outside and see what's there This town it has taken its toll, it's a drag Don't wanna feel like I've wasted all my time Find some new friends Friendly faces, friendly souls Find a new home Somewhere I can rest my head This town it has taken its toll, weighs me down Don't wanna feel like I've wasted all my time

Setting Sail 04:12
Patience, I don’t have too much more Landlocked for too long now And the bodies of water, they call me (Oh) I’m setting sail Can’t stay too long I can’t stand still Taking its toll Set sail, find a way out of here Leave home, nothing back there for me Words, they don’t have much meaning (Oh)

Spring Break 03:59
Lay on the grass Watch the cloud formations pass over us Point out people in the parks and laugh Where do they go? Counting objects on our fingertips I feel at ease On the drive home, sing along to songs we’ve never heard I was alone, you were around Can’t get your smile outta my skull Walk through forests hearing nature's buzz It’s better with you Remember colours that we saw last night in my bedroom Drive past fields and past the shoreline Nothing to do but lay on the grass Watch the cloud formations pass over us
5.
Friends 03:06
Try to be friends with you Makes no sense, what can I do? Trying my best to learn Someone’s late and someone’s burned Wall’s gone, now I see My leg was pulled, the joke’s on me Seeing your face around Why do I still talk to you? And it seems like I have tried far more than this is worth Can’t give you anything you don’t already have Try to be friends with you Makes no sense, what can I do? Making your promises Turn out empty in the end
6.
Walkabout 03:58
I had profound ghostly fears and I don’t know why Feel like I’m just sleepwalking, like I’m nodding off I am seeking some answers but I don’t seek stars She said take your time now son, she said take your time And I’m frightened, I’m haunted I’m afraid of what lies ahead of me Heading out on this walkabout Heading out on this walkabout I had profound ghostly fears and I don’t know why There are days that must happen, I just don’t know why Treading water ‘til I find I’m just wasting time No destination set, got nowhere in mind
7.
Departure 03:52
Ages ago, you just disappeared I don’t know just where you went No one knows just why you went away No one knows, you’re such a mystery (Yeah) Ages ago, you just disappeared No one knows just where you went I still think of you and the things you’d say Now you’re gone, you’re gone completely (Yeah)
