Smoke Screen

Smoke Screen
(Calkins/Verbocy/Hancock/Cavallaro)

Waiting
On the
Smoke Screen
Life is
More than
What you’re making now

Try to cry to Jesus
But no one’s listening
Tried to find you someone who
Is very hard to see, yeah

Dreaming
Is all
That’s left now.
Waiting
On the
Smoke Screen

Try to cry to Jesus
But no one’s listening
All been searchin’ for someone who
Is very hard to see, yeah

Stop You Now
(Calkins/Verbocy/Hancock/Cavallaro)

It cannot be all bad, but who knows?
You’ll do anything to make a buck, and it shows
Everything will work out in the end, right?

Ah, no one can stop you now
Ah, no one can stop you now

It’s not going back in time, but just hard
To figure out what you want to be, and get far
Look in your mirror to find who’s your friend

Ah, no one can stop you now
Ah, your life’s changed anyhow

Reason To Stay
(Calkins/Verbocy)

You tell me you’re not afraid
I don’t know what I should say
I go in high but I don’t
Regret a second I stay with you

You tell me you want some more
But I just don’t have it in me
And when I get to the door
You tell me you wanna know what I would say

Why don’t you give me a reason to stay?
Why don’t you give me a reason to stay?

Baby it could be nice to see you
I’m thinkin’, would she care?
But it sure is great to love you
You’re already there, already there
Darling it would be nice to see you
I’m wonderin,’ would she care?
Ah but it sure is great to love you
You’re already there, already there
Already there

Why don’t you give me a reason to stay?
Why don’t you give me a reason to stay?

Through The Night
(Calkins)

Hey, hey had a day
Waste away the evening wanting her to stop
Gone away now for a while
Can’t help living feeling sorry for my cop out

But I know
Something doesn’t seem right
But I know
We’ll have ot make it through the night
And we can, ‘cause I don’t need it anyhow

Hey, hey look around
Who’s to blame with all the fakeness in this town?
Gone away now once again
Tired of living feeling sorry for your friend now

She’s hard to trust but has it going on
Quite the rebound, had be from the time ‘I Saw Her Standing There’
Kind of crazy, I’m aware
On the bathroom floor, I caught her lying there

The Best Thing
(Verbocy/Calkins)

I’ve been waiting here for you all day
Just get on with what you need to say

You are the best thing
You are the best thing

What is your solution here for me?
Just take a number, and have a seat

Please tell me there’s another way
It’s taken you forever and a day

Really Coming Home
(Calkins)

Yes I know,
I’m falling straight into the fold
Being places I’m not sold on
And there’s no turning back

And you really don’t know
You’re really really coming home
You drove right into the storm
You’re really really coming home

And you see,
The villain here, it’s not me
You’re all right or you’re all wrong
And there’s no in between

And you really don’t know
You’re really really coming home
You drove right into the storm
You’re really really coming home
And this I know
I’ll try to sleep, and close my eyes

I Hope You’ll Understand
(Calkins/Glassmire)

There’s no use going on this way
It’s becoming much harder to stay
How can I?

I can’t sit beside you now
I will be the bigger one
I hope you’ll understand

The rivers and the forest
The mountains and the rest
of your promised land

I can’t sit beside you now
I will be the bigger one
And I hope you’ll understand
I hope you’ll understand

We’ve Got To Roll
(Calkins)

Must’ve been a Friday night
Drunken on your town
Tryin’ to find a way to live it down
Two o’clock came and you had to get home
Stumbled out and around
Tryin’ to find a way not to drown

We’ve got to roll
Across the ocean floor
We’ve got to roll
Across the sea
There’s no better place for you and me
We’ve got to roll

Happened upon the forest reservoir
But how to get across
Tryin’ to find a way to live it down
Grabbed a boat and you paddled away
But ended up getting lost
Tryin’ to find a way not to drown

We’ve got to roll
No one can stop us now
We’ve got to roll
From everybody
There’s no better place for you and me
We’ve got to roll

What I Love
(Verbocy/Calkins)

Could be all the little things
Maybe the dimples in her cheeks
The way she looks at me

I don’t know what it is
But she’s got what I love

It’s all in what she wears
The way she combs her hair
She just doesn’t care

I don’t know what it is
But she’s got what I love

You think you’ve seen it all
When you do her wrong
Something’s going on

I don’t know what it is
But she’s got what I love

At The End Of The Day
(Calkins/Verbocy)

You pushed and you pulled away
It’s all the same at the end of the day
You’ll see, but didn’t you care?
I hope you belong with me
And in the end we can always be
Oh yeah, but didn’t you care?

Tell me when will you understand
That I’m the one you can depend on
No matter where you travel, there’s something new
I need someone, just like you
Oh, you

You pushed and you pulled away
It’s all the same at the end of the day
You’ll see, but didn’t you care?

Tell me when will you understand
That I’m the one who made the plan
No matter where you travel, there’s something new
I need someone, just like you
Oh, you
