Let's Start a Campfire (EP)

The Artist Life Let's Start a Campfire (EP) Lyrics
1.Beach Towns and Foolish Clowns (EP)

I can't seem to let it go
You said I can't be any good for you
But you know that's just not true

You said we're dreamers
Hell yeah I'm a dreamer
So let's get it right
Baby, swing those hips and move those thighs

'Cause when you sing so low
The words I know I know
I'm so captivated, yeahhhh
Flashing lights dancing on your eyes
Just keep them, keep them on me

'Cause there's a summer that you'll never forget
These sad songs dancing through your head
Honestly, I can't believe
Just keep them, keep them on me

You said you'd never forget
You said you'd never forget

I'm not one to change my mind
You said I'm not the only one for you
But you know that's just not true

'Cause when you sing so low
The words I know I know
You're so captivating, yeahhhh
Flashing lights dancing on your eyes
Just keep them, keep them on me

'Cause there's a summer that you'll never forget
These sad songs dancing through your head
Honestly, I can't believe
Just keep them, keep them on me

And there's a picture that you'll never forget
The California summer where the sun never sets
Honestly, I can't believe
Just keep them, keep them on me

You said you'd never forget
You said you'd never forget

Flashing lights dancing on your eyes
Just keep them, keep them on me
Flashing lights dancing on your eyes
Just keep them, keep them on me

'Cause there's a summer that you'll never forget
These sad songs dancing through your head
Honestly, I can't believe
Just keep them, keep them on me

And there's a picture that you'll never forget
The California summer where the sun never sets
Honestly, I can't believe
Just keep them, keep them on me

You said you'd never forget
You said you'd never forget
You said you'd never forget
I'm never gonna forget


2.Let's Start a Riot (EP)

There's a lack of communication
A world of opportunity and a starving nation
On every corner of every street
Not an ounce of truth in every word they speak

And theres a shit bag promoter in every city
His ideals are gone and all his friends are shitty
You cant pay him enough to shut his mouth
But he'll take your money when the kids all shout your name
And it's crying fuckin shame

So let's stick together
Whoa-oh!
Lets show the world were so much better
Whoa-oh-oh!
Whoa-oh-oh!
Let's start a riot
Whoa-oh!
Let's pull the answers from the quiet
Whoa-oh-oh!
Whoa-oh!

Lets start a riot
Whoa-oh!

Children get lost and stigmatized
If the words don't match and the letters align
There's a balance between the dumb and true
The kids don't care but the parents do
Come on!

Theres a method of interpretation
That says the strongest link is the weakest indication of
potential
Intellectual ability should be calculated by the thoughts
they bring to school every day when their lunch is gone
Their clothes don't fit but their will is strong!

So let's stick together
Whoa-oh!
Lets show the world were so much better
Whoa-oh-oh!
Whoa-oh-oh!
Let's start a riot
Whoa-oh!
Let's pull the answers from the quiet
Whoa-oh-oh!
Whoa-oh!

Lets start a riot
Whoa-oh!

I never shouted enough so maybe I'm wrong
I'm wrong, I'm not wrong
We say we care
We only care enough to belong
To pretend we've done it again
So don't believe that we're innocent

Let's start a riot
Let's pull the answers from the quiet
Let's start a riot


3.Sleep So Sound (EP)

He woke up screaming but his hearts not pounding
Stuck inside a shed said he never would've found it
If he didn't cough up his lungs and light up a smoke
(It's happening again)

He tries his best to remember
Just how fucked up he was and the name of the bartender
Who kissed him before she kicked him out
It only took another drink until he blacked out

And why's he so god damn addicted?
But he never would admit it
Until he's on the floor unconscious
Just admit it, just admit it

Sleep so sound
You know that everyone found out
You know that everyone was right
So who's suffering now?

Yeah!
Hey!

She fell asleep with her clothes on
And the lights on too and her coat and her shoes
And her cell phone in her pocket
She screamed all night cause she swore that she lost it

She tries her best to remember
The show she was at and the name of the band
The after party she crashed and every bottle she crushed
It only took another drink till she collapsed

And why's she so god damn addicted?
But she never would admit it
Until she's on the floor unconscious
Just admit it, just admit it

Sleep so sound
You know that everyone found out
You know that everyone was right
So who's suffering now?

Who's laughing now?
And who's suffering now
From the brink of self-destruction?
And who's bailing you out?

Who's got a choice to make?
And who's got promises to break?
Who's made just enough mistakes
And who's too dumb to walk away

Oh no, don't walk away
Don't you

So why's he so god damn addicted?
But he never would admit it
Until he's on the floor unconscious
Just admit it, just admit it
Just admit it, just admit it

Sleep so sound
You know that everyone found out
You know that everyone was right
So who's suffering now?

Hey!


4.You're Not Fooling Anyone (EP)

Alright let's talk about it
I don't like talking to you
Instead I'll sing out loud so everyone hears about it

Can't wrap my head around it
How did you get (it wrong?)?
Now she's so loving it's the last thing I ever wanted
I bite my tongue for her but know, I know

She's not fooling anyone
Give up the front, give up the front now
She's not fooling anyone
Give up the front, you're not fooling anyone

Now here's the thing about it
I hate the awkwardness
I hate the fact I have to smile and forget about it

Can't wrap my head around it
Why do you bring her down
I'll write it off so I can move on till I accept it

But you're a liar, a hypocrite
She never asked for this but you gave her it
You're a liar but you wanted it
Now she's barely aware, and regretting it
We'll bite our tongues for her but know that we know

You're not fooling anyone
Give up the front, give up the front now
You're not fooling anyone
Give up the front, you're not fooling anyone

But the offers there if you don't know
She doesn't care but

You know I know you know I know

(You know I know)

You're not fooling anyone
Give up the front, give up the front now
You're not fooling anyone
Give up the front, you're not fooling anyone


5.The Last Time (EP)

And this could be the last time
That I fall for her the first time
And this, this could be the last time
That I built it up, I build it up again

Steady, cold feet aren't helping now
Steady, a moments not too far away
Hold on to this you know you got to
'Cause you're on and on again just know that
Only time will tell if, if this is it now

She's got me shaking and, she's got me shaking
And my heart blacks out in a trance
My heart blacks out in trance

It feels just like the first time,
That we fell in love the last time,
So just promise me it's the one time,
Just promise, like you're first kiss

There's a thousand some odd reasons I should walk away
But this burning intuition to make you stay
Oh god, please stay (Oh god, please stay!)

She's got me shaking and, she's got me shaking
And my heart blacks out in a trance
My heart blacks out in trance

She's got me shaking and, she's got me shaking
And my heart blacks out in a trance
And I feel it again, and again and again

So now think it right
Steady as she goes
What have you got to lose tonight?

So now think it right
Steady as she goes
What have you got, what have you got to lose?

She's got me shaking and, she's got me shaking
And my heart blacks out in a trance
My heart blacks out in trance

She's got me shaking and, she's got me shaking
And my heart blacks out in a trance
And I feel it again, and again and again
