Thieves With Good Intentions
 
Something to steal
something to write our names on
something to makes us
feel free
could we be

Thieves with good intentions
Sinners that save lives
Someone you wanna see on the street
could we be

You didn't steal my heart
sometimes i wish you did
could you call my name
save me
could you be

a thief with good intentions
a sinner that saves lives
someone i wanna see on the street
could you be

I should've said something
but i was lost for words

find a word that rhymes with intentions and change the song to simply 'Good Intentions'. It just sounds better to me for some reason. You need help filling in those blank spots?

Holy Man
Panic Fire
alligators
white flags

Holy Man
Panic Fire
alligators

open the door let them in
open the door let them in

Hold this note
the war is gone

The Kite *Link to Demo Icluded!!!*
 
Download "The Kite" Demo
Two Red Balloons
Up in the sky
one yellow kite
about to fall
to the sea

Two Red Balloons
Up in the sky
one yellow kite
about to fall
to the sea
unfortunately the recording wasn't all that great because the guitar sounds like it has distortion.

How To Catch the Sparrow *Download Link included*
 
Download "How To Catch the Sparrow" Demo
We were all one young
runnin out into the rain when we weren't supposed to
climbin trees and scrapin knees
it was the only way to teach us pain

Mother Sky
father sea
please help me

The rain will die but tomorrow
we'll learn how to catch the sparrow

Brother flame
sister tree
please save me

I can't write this song the way
it was meant to be
i am sorry
could you forgive me

Grandpa gun
grandma flower
please find me*

we live and die, but we lie (x4)

Dragonflies (Dedicated to Jake Ita)
 
I wish you could stay awhile
I wish you could stay

Than, maybe I'd know you
Maybe you could tell me yourself

Do you know right from wrong
what is your favorite song
cause maybe we could sing-along

but we know that the dragonflies
always leave when someone dies

Whose fault?
Does it matter?
you're up in the sky
you must've been a good man
because so many people down here
love you, love you

Do you know right from wrong
what is your favorite song
cause maybe we could sing-along

but we know that the dragonflies
always leave when someone dies

If I Fell Into Black Water
 
If i fell into black water
would you save me
if you ran away
from home
i'd run away with you
and we'd be the best of friends

and then the cops'll come
lookin for us
and we'd hide
under the bed in
that cheap motel

if this was the last time
i saw you
than i'd kiss you goodbye
but we believe
that we're invincible
nothing can hurt us
nothing can hurt you

we stole a blue car
and drove outa this shity state
somethin you'd say
"I Love this air i'm breathin"

If i fell into black water
would you save me
if you ran away
from home
i'd run away with you

if this was the last time
i saw you
than i'd kiss you goodbye
but we believe
that we're invincible
nothing can hurt us
nothing can hurt you
i even got the guitar finished.
