Ursa Minor 03:21
Keep it together, kid This is a day for change I've taken long enough of a break No matter how early I get up, I always seem to be late And if I can make it to winter I'll hibernate the months away No one will see me face They will forget my name Pick my motivation off the floor Wrap it around me as I walk out the door No matter how long the day is, I swear I'll stick it out And if I can make it to winter I'll hibernate the months away No one will see me face They will forget my name I'll always hate the first snowfall But this time I smiled for the first time in a while I wasn't sad or tired, and I feel better So much better I'll always hate the first snowfall (Pick myself off of the floor) But this time I smiled for the first time in a while (Keep it together) I wasn't sad or tired, and I feel better than I have in months

Dig Too Deep 03:25
When I came back to the real world It was shouting words I tried to ignore I said, "It's Thursday, let me sleep" But it kept pushing, "You've got work to do, Katie" It said, "Grind your way out of this town And leave a path so easier to come back around" But I don't want to to dig too deep I'm not so tall I'm afraid I'll fall It's not even the end of the week This is when my life is falling apart So help me off the couch again It's hard to grab my hands when my head is in them Once the bags on my eyes stop blocking my sight Maybe I'll finally see how I can get by But I don't want to to dig too deep I'm not so tall I'm afraid I'll fall It's not even the end of the week You can't make me dig deep (You can't make me dig too deep) I won't put down roots anywhere You can't make me dig deep (You can't make me dig too deep)

Customary 03:31
Nothing beats the night of the jumper The look on the face of the campus was blank as a slate Who could blame it? Your mom gave me a hug while she cried Because she was happy for all she had to be thankful of The whole town was shaken, but it was all forgotten We've buried too many friends We've seen more than our share of things that had to end And like this we keep them alive in every star-filled sky I'll wish on you tonight It was ten of us in three years Don't tell me there is nothing here to fear They were brothers and sisters of ours A coffee shop choir, a unison chorus Now we're singing their sad songs The whole town was shaken, and it was all forgotten We've buried too many friends We've seen more than our share of things that had to end And like this we keep them alive in every star-filled sky I'll wish on you tonight When we hear the news, it's so customary, so ordinary I wish it didn't have to be When we hear the news, it's so customary, so ordinary I wish it didn't have to be We've buried too many friends We've seen more than our share of things that had to end And like this we keep them alive in every star-filled sky I'll wish on you tonight
