Get It Right
03:34

I’ve played these chords a million times
Somehow they still sound good to me when they sound
There’s still something I’m trying to find
Because there’s a perfect melody I haven’t found
I could spend entire days
Trying to find a clever way to turn a phrase
Or I could tell it to you straight
Because it’s just a simple thing I’m trying to say
Well I say…
I’m still trying to get it right
Give me time
Because I’m still trying
I’m still trying to get it right

Out on the road
My head explodes
Mile-markers guiding me back home
Out on the road
My heart explodes
She’s telling me it’s over on the telephone
I’m never going back
Out on the road
Nights move so slow
I pass the time with Coast To Coast on the radio
Out on the road
My life implodes
She’s moving to Alaska and I can’t stand the cold
I’m never going back

Swimming around this fishbowl town
Nothing to do but wait around
With my head in the clouds, my feet off the ground
A fool in a paper crown
Nothing to do but wait around
I thought we had more time
I thought we’d keep on trying
I didn’t know we were saying goodbye
I thought you’d change your mind
I thought we’d heal inside
I didn’t know we were saying goodbye
Kicking around this shithole town
Nowhere to go but down
With my head in my hands, or buried in the sand
Now that you’re not around
Nowhere to go but down
We’ve run out of time
I guess there’s no use trying now
Now I know we were saying goodbye
You’ve made up your mind
I guess there’s no sense crying now
Now I know we were saying…
Now I know we were saying goodbye

Will you find for me
A little time for me?
Do right by me
Be kind to me
Tell me if it’s over now
Oh wow
Don’t play with me
No more games with me
Will you stay with me?
Or will you stray from me?
Tell me if you’re making up
Or breaking up with me
Well I don’t care anymore
It’s just the same as it was before...
Before you came
Tell me if it’s over now
Oh wow
I don’t care anymore
It’s just the same as it was before
We’ve played this game for way too long
God only knows where I went wrong
Treat me right now
Or leave me right now
Be kind to me

When you’re turning out the light
Do I ever cross your mind?
And when you’re far away asleep
Do you ever dream of me?
Have you called him by my name
When you were making love?
Have you called him by my name?
When he holds you by the hand
Do you wonder where I am?
And when he whispers in your ear
Is it my voice that you hear?
Have you called him by my name
When you were making love?
Have you called him by my name?
Can he see it in your face
That I’m the one you’re thinking of?
Am I the one you’re thinking of?

Parallel Lines
03:14
|

A million points of light
Bursting in your mind
All the pointless strife
Disappears in time
Fading in time
Parallel lines
Phosphorescent waves
Wash the past away
Fading in time
Parallel lines
Leaving the past
So far behind
Fading in time
It moves so fast
We search for the answers
Something to lean on
Something to make it all make sense
But we're running backwards
Looking for reasons
Walking in parallel present tense
A million points of light
Bursting in your mind
All the pointless strife
Disappears in time
Fading in time
Parallel lines
Leaving the past
So far behind
Fading in time
It just can't last

I’ve got a box that I keep in the basement
Can’t look inside, there’s no way I can face it
I’m such a fool
For thinking of you
I can’t stop loving you
No matter what I do
I just can’t stop loving you
I’ve got a box that I keep in the basement
With every note you wrote to me
Can’t throw it out, there’s no way to replace it
Letters that I’ll never read
I’m such a fool
For thinking of you
I can’t stop loving you
No matter what I do
I just can’t stop loving you
There’s nothing left that I can do
We both know I’m not gonna change
I can’t stop myself from loving you
I can’t stop loving you
No matter what I do
I just can’t stop loving you
Damn it, I can’t stop

Grace
04:08

Spinning spirals in time
On an infinite loop
A figure eight taking shape
In your circular route
Each time you come to the end
You start again
Street kid - where are you going?
Street kid - you’ve got nowhere to be
Street kid - you’re young and showing the world that you’re free
Street kid - go call your mother
Street kid - she’s not as bad as she seems
Street kid - I know you love her despite what it seems
Flowers in your hair
Sitting on the stairs
Street kid - you’re all grown up now
Street kid - you’ve got a kid of your own
Street kid - well I’m so glad that you found your way home
Found your way back home
I’ve watched you come
I’ve watched you go
I’ve watched you find your way back home
It made me proud to see you grow
I’ve brought you joy
I’ve caused you pain
Held you close, pushed you away
I’ve been humbled by your grace

Fair-Weather Fool
06:34
|

So you’ve found somebody new
Well I don’t blame you if that’s true
I was never right for you
Does he treat you like he should?
Better than I ever could?
I was never gonna be there forever, it’s true
What can I do?
I’m a fair-weather fool
I’m no good for you
It’s true
I know I never let you in
I thought I’d hurt you if I did
Who was I trying to kid?
You seemed so fragile, I was afraid
Turns out it’s me that’s built to break
I was never gonna be there forever anyway
What can I do?
I’m a fair-weather fool
I’m no good for you
There’s too much pain in this world
Don’t hurt me again baby girl
What can I do?
I’m a fair-weather fool
I’m no good for you
You know that it's true
A million things that I could say
But they don’t matter anyway
Now that you’re gone
Things I should have said before
But it don’t matter anymore
Now that you’re gone

When I'm Gone
03:10
|

I’ve tried everything I can
I know you don’t understand
I’ve gone as far as I can
I’m still right where I began
I’m just tired of being in pain
Is that so wrong?
Don’t hold it against me when I’m gone
Running circles in the past
Will get you nowhere fast
And racing backwards is a fool’s task
You’ll always finish last
I don’t want to be in pain
Is that so wrong?
Don’t hold it against me when I’m gone
I’m just tired of being in pain
Is that so wrong?
Don’t hold it against me when I’m gone

Supercrush Seattle, Washington
Although best known for playing in a long lineage of hardcore, punk, and metal groups, Mark Palm’s focus has always been song-craft and pop sensibility. After beginning to explore softer sounds in the late aughts as a member of San Francisco shoegazers Modern Charms, Palm adopted the Supercrush moniker as a vehicle for his pursuit of powerpop preeminence. ... more
