From the album Plans, released August 30, 2005
"Burn it down/ 'till the embers smoke on the ground/ and start new/ when your heart is an empty room/ with the walls of deepest blue/ home's face/ how it ages when you're away/ spring blooms/ and you find the love that's true/ but you don't know what now to do/ 'cause the chase is all you know/ and she stopped running months ago/ and all you see/ is where else you could be/ when you're at home"

From the album Share What Ya' Got, released 2004
"This time/ this year/ is bigger than us/ it goes on long after we're gone/ this town has taken it all out of us/ made us new men/ made us look at our lives through new eyes/ I love you in so many ways/ taught me to give/ to lose/ to love/ to be lost/ and now/ how to want/ I held your shoulders/ we cried in the dark/ that was last year/ and we were so scared/ so when it comes March/ will we march together/ ride bikes to the river/ and wreck them along the way"
