War Paint

Music video and lyrics for “War Paint” by The Dangerous Summer

Lyrics
I was starting to shake
From the days I’ve been up
There’s a lot on my plate
And the ones I loved stopped answering
They left me to find my self
In my own hate
I work all alone with a cynical taste
And the day I get out
Is the day I’ll be made

I was cut out of stone
And carved with a blade
Head down with all of my hardships
There’s nothing too strong
That I cant face
Don’t stop ‘till you finally have it
It should be more like a habit

Come down,
All the fighting’s over
I let you breathe your own air
I will set my arms down in a corner
When I turn around
You will tell me how you’re up now
From your dream of clovers
Said, “not a thing will compare
To the sense you give me, and disorder
When you turn around
And I can’t breathe”

There wasn’t a trace
Of the war letting up
And the days went on late
I struggled
And I fell to solid ground
It led me to my escape
Now here I am outside of your gate
I was hoping you could

Come down,
All the fighting’s over
I let you breathe your own air
I will set my arms down in a corner
When I turn around
You will tell me how you’re up now
From your dream of clovers
Said, “not a thing will compare
To the sense you give me, and disorder
When you turn around
And I can’t breathe”

Well, I came to say sorry
I shouldn’t have left
But my bitterness got to me
Before you did
And now I’m laying in gardens
Where we start over again
I know that you got me
And this is it

Come down,
All the fighting’s over
I let you breathe your own air
I will set my arms down in a corner
When I turn around
You will tell me how you’re up now
From your dream of clovers
Said, “not a thing will compare
To the sense you give me, and disorder
When you turn around
And I can’t breathe”

Miscommunication

Music video and lyrics for “Miscommunication” by The Dangerous Summer

Lyrics
“Are you serious?” She said
“I never should have let you in my head
Who the hell do you think that you are?
I see you climbing over innocent hearts.
I’ll say exactly what I feel; “I’m not impressed at all”
You really want to know just what I think?
You’re lost.
I’m tired of always being second best.
Get out, and find that pseudo comfort
Somewhere else.”

We fall to miscommunication

And in that moment I might die
I’ll let you go; if you really mean it
All this time, but you didn’t know
I felt misleaded in my mind
We’ll take it slow
Leave all the people to their lives and find our home

I was tearing at the threads that you are
And it never seemed to get me too far ‘til now
“I’m not impressed at all”
You really want to know just what I think?
You’re lost.
I’m tired of always being second best.
Get out, and find that pseudo comfort
Somewhere else.”

We fall to miscommunication

And in that moment I might die
I’ll let you go; if you really mean it
All this time, but you didn’t know
I felt misleaded in my mind
We’ll take it slow
Leave all the people to their lives and find our home

She said, “I’m tired of always being second best,
Since everything this year has been a mess
Half my family’s gone for good so here I sit
I need a comfort in a boy that takes my hits
Do you remember when we met? We were alone
It was middle of the night outside my home.
We stayed up late just for the start of something new
I can’t believe your distance left us.”

We fall to miscommunication

And in that moment I might die
I’ll let you go; if you really mean it
All this time, but you didn’t know
I felt misleaded in my mind
We’ll take it slow
Leave all the people to their lives and find our home

We fall to miscommunication

And in that moment I might die
I’ll let you go; if you really mean it
All this time, but you didn’t know
I felt misleaded in my mind
We’ll take it slow
Leave all the people to their lives and find our home

Work In Progress

Official music video and lyrics for “Work In Progress” by The Dangerous Summer

Lyrics
Tell them all that I’m a work in progress
Pour it out and I will stay out of the way
Fill it up, for what it’s worth I’m harmless
Cut me down and I will live with what I take

I’m not saving you for myself
I wanna see you and I wanna say
You’re what’s keeping me warm
You’re what’s keeping me safe

Take my hands and keep them busy again
I think I’m losing my whole belief system
I get a lot of problems in my head sometimes
And I keep on forgetting
So take my hands and keep them busy again

Save me a place inside the quiet
I know hate, cause I see it in everyone around
And lately I’ve been losing truth
Faith, I have been losing too

Save me a place inside the quiet
I know hate, cause I see it in everyone around
And lately I’ve been losing truth
Faith, I have been losing too

Take it out on all your constant losses
Know it’s only just a miracle to face
Even death can bring a man to life
When he sits right up and still nothing tastes the same

Save me a place inside the quiet
I know hate, cause I see it in everyone around
And lately I’ve been losing truth
Faith, I have been losing too

Save me a place inside the quiet
I know hate, cause I see it in everyone around
And lately I’ve been losing truth
Faith, I have been losing too

Take my hands and keep them busy again
I think I’m losing my whole belief system
I get a lot of problems in my head sometimes
And I keep on forgetting
So take my hands and keep them busy again

Take
Take my hands
Busy again
Busy again
Keep on forgetting

No One’s Gonna Need You More

Official music video and lyrics for “No One’s Gonna Need You More” by The Dangerous Summer

Lyrics
I told you, “Life’s not fair”
At least we know why it’s not an easy air to find
I watched you sink right in a bottle of wine
It must’ve seemed like I could die
And I was pining back
Turned out all the lights and I could barely stand
Coloring the lines in with my proper hand
Lightly pushed away
And I’ll hold that waiting hand for you and drown all the words out

I couldn’t make it past those eyes
I think I feel like the wind
Sometimes, I wish we’d try to begin
No one’s gonna need you more
No one’s gonna need you more

I’ve got mine
Moving ‘cross the country I lost track of time
Trying to make a name for myself
Cause every lonely heart can use an honest song they can sing along to
You’re the home I’ve been dying to make
And the gold that God didn’t take
I’ll hold that waiting hand for you and drown all the words out

I couldn’t make it past those eyes
I think I feel like the wind
Sometimes, I wish we’d try to begin
No one’s gonna need you more
No one’s gonna need you…

Fine, I tried, but falling back to sin
Those nights you were keeping me in skin
No one’s gonna need you more
No one’s gonna need you more

I hope you listen
I need forgiveness
We both can live with at all
And I know, either way I will reach you
Either way I was wrong
If not for this end
I’ll still be wishing I was right there with you and all
Either way I am see through
Either way I’m not strong
I was staring out to things I don’t want to face
I need back inside your veins
I’m dying out now

I couldn’t make it past those eyes
I think I feel like the wind
Sometimes, I wish we’d try to begin
No one’s gonna need you more
No one’s gonna need you…

Fine, I tried, but falling back to sin
Those nights you were keeping me in skin
No one’s gonna need you more
No one’s gonna need you more

Good Things

Music video and lyrics for “Good Things” by The Dangerous Summer

Lyrics
I’m safe, and who ever thought that I was difficult
My nerves start to feel so frayed
I’ll try to turn things around, but instead
I’ll say “Why do I feel so invisible
Good things will come my way.”
I’ll try to turn things around, and I wait

‘Till the day when I stop making big mistakes
And the clouds, they roll out of this whole damn state
I believe in a place that I want to go
Honesty will leave me feeling livable
Once I change

Now that I’ve found some time, all the pain won’t bother me
I’ve wanted to find why my head keeps filtering

Irate, caught in the worst storm inside of me
Words start to feel misplaced
You can change what you want with your pen.
I pray, as things start to feel much more possible
This time, I’ll know what to say
You can live how you want in these days

When the way that you talk makes up history
It’s important to know why you clench your teeth
I’ll flee to a place that I wanna go
With a shift in a sound that is physical
Know I’ll change

Now that I’ve found some time, all the pain won’t bother me
I’ve wanted to find why my head keeps filtering
That hole in my life and how it stayed inside my limbs
Must have been caught up in my skin
Now I’ve relied on that I’ve changed

Now that I’ve found some time, all the pain won’t bother me
I’ve wanted to find why my head keeps filtering
That hole in my life, I just want it to die
It must have stayed inside of my limbs
Must have been caught up in my skin
