Track Name: Ally
Ally, what's your story today
Did you cry or did you play
With the costumes in your room
I know I'll be hearing soon
All about it

(Ally)

Allison, you know you're beautiful when you don't care
About the wind when it blows your hair
About the stigmas that people give
To the ones with lives to live
You know they're interesting in their own way
We're all part of one giant bouquet
You know you confuse me but that's fine
'Cause it's that cute and innocent kind

(Ally)

Ally, you can run, you can move, you can marry
But Ally, don't forget all your friends that weren't wary
Track Name: Swingers
Back and forth we toured the Earth and the Heavens
Far and near to the ground we swallowed our fear
Upside down pretending the world is a clock
With a fulcrum up high, I'm a pendulum suspended in time

Grasp the chains, it seems insane to get higher
But with feet outstretched we make the bet that we can
Pumping harder than before with our head at the trees
And with leaves as our goal we bring the prize down in our hand

Leaning back, our hair touches gravel below
Perpendicular slack brings a jolt from our head to our toes
Our shirts tied around our necks in the front
Now a cape bound to the sky preparation to fly

Our arms in front of the chains no room for more height
One last kick in the air, let go, and our bodies take flight
Track Name: Across the State Lines
I will drive across the state lines in hope to find a better life
You will stay behind in our home town breaking ground anew

Oh, the miles that lie between us will multiply a hundred times
Although it seems so far away, Seasons will change, but our accord will remain

I will leave the place where I was born because I'm torn on what to do
And I'll buy my time it's my conviction, I hope your depiction of me doesn't change for the worse

That last night, we spent all of our time, we sat and spied the city lights
'Cause when the sun shows in the morning, you will set your sights on a better life
Track Name: Snow Globe
Layin' alone in the plastic snow, wonderin' what it's like to be outside this globe
Wonderin' what's going on with you, there's nothing new with me just the same old view

'Cause you're my friend, and I am yours

One amongst these winter weeks we all turn red in our nose and in our cheeks
Noticed your environment was rather dull so I'll shake your around and watch as the snowflakes fall

'Cause you're my friend, and I am yours.

Stuck in place thinking to myself, wishing I was down from this lonely shelf
Dust collecting in the sky, a rag's a must to let this light shine in

To you I may seem very tall, but the outside world makes me feel oh so small
Look inside your biosphere, wonder what it's like to be void of fear

'Cause you're my friend, and I am yours
Track Name: December
We woke up in the morning and walked outside in the snow
Our breath was like the heavy smoke from a burning building
The flames reach higher and higher everywhere we go
So let's take a minute, sit right here, and forget everything

Then we waited for the sunrise, and the sky turned all bright red and blue
The tops of trees were glistening, the song birds singing
The rays hit the Earth and lit up everything for me and you
So let's take a minute, sit right here, and forget everything
