This Year's Model

(album: The Hold Tight - 2014)

It started in the fall with familiar colors
Now the sky is turning into snow
Snow into circles of a question about nature
While you fall into the great unknown

Like an atheist in a hospital church
You're driven to your knees
You've got nothing to lose 'cause it's already gone
You're just wishing

So give me a sign
Is this year's model all that it's cracked up to be
Give me a sign
Is this year's model something that I can believe

I'm singing in the dark
Turn it up louder
Turn it up louder
Turn it up louder
Is anybody there
Turn it up louder
Turn it up louder
Turn it up louder

Black into black, all familiar color
It's all I ever seem to see
Splashes of dirt in a neon soul
My heartbreak majesty

And I'm gripping heart
I'm holding tight
A baby's hand is holding mine
But it's so small
God it's so small

So give me a sign
Is this year's model all that it's cracked up to be
Give me a sign
Is this year's model something that I can believe

I'm singing in the dark
Turn it up louder
Turn it up louder
Turn it up louder
Is anybody there
Turn it up louder
Turn it up louder
Turn it up louder

I'm singing in the dark
Turn it up louder
Turn it up louder
Turn it up louder
Is anybody there
Turn it up louder
Turn it up louder
Turn it up louder

When it all stops, I feel my heart beat
But I don't want to think and I don't want to speak
When it all stops, I feel my heart beat
But I don't want to think and I don't want to speak
I don't want to think and I don't want to speak
I don't want to think at all

So give me a sign
Is this year's model all that it's cracked up to be
Give me a sign
Is this year's model something that I can believe

I'm singing in the dark
Turn it up louder
Turn it up louder
Turn it up louder
Is anybody there
Turn it up louder
Turn it up louder
Turn it up louder

I'm singing in the dark
Turn it up louder
Turn it up louder
Turn it up louder
Is anybody there
Turn it up louder
Turn it up louder
Turn it up louder

I'm singing in the dark
Turn it up louder
Turn it up louder
Turn it up louder
Is anybody there
Turn it up louder
Turn it up louder
Turn it up louder
