Absolute
I've seen this one before
The girl she gets away
Everybody knows it
But no one tries to stop it
'Cause she barely even knows him
But if she could see inside
Everything is quiet as she waits
To tell him who she is
Is this all we get to be absolute?
Quiet but I'm sure there is something here
(Absolute)
Tell me everything 'cause I want to hear
(Absolute)
It's a kiss sits upon on her lips
That waits for planes and battle ships
She wants to be a dancer
And he has got a picture on his wall
And it's a sailor in
A new port every night
Yet man was born to trouble
Like sparks fly upwards innocent
Is this all we get to be absolute?
Quiet but I'm sure there is something here
(Absolute)
Tell me everything 'cause I want to hear
(Absolute)
Quiet but I'm sure there is something here
(Absolute)
Tell me everything 'cause I want to hear
(Absolute)
All we are and all we want
Forty years come and gone
All we are in photographs
Will never be taken
Quiet but I'm sure there is something here
Tell me everything 'cause I want you here
Quiet but I'm sure there is something here
(Absolute)
Tell me everything 'cause I want to hear
(Absolute)
Quiet but I'm sure there is something here
(Absolute)
Tell me everything 'cause I want to hear
(Absolute)
There is something here
(Absolute)
There is something here
(Absolute)

Wow, when I first bought this CD, and listened this song, I fell in love with it! It's beautiful, it connects with me, and it's just really amazing. And, I love the back-up vocals when the band says "absolute". I just absolute(ly) love this song! :)

"Yet man is born to trouble as surely as sparks fly upwards." - Job 5:7

i love thsi songg! but i liked the old version better honestly i just thought it was better u no this 1
Ive seen this one before,
the girl she gets away
Everybody knows it
but no one tries to stop it
Cause he barely even knows her
But If she could see inside
I'm no good without her
And the New York Times hit the floor
Is this all I give
To be absolute
It's a kiss that sits upon her lips
Waits for planes and battleships
She wants to be a dancer
Me, I've got a picture
On my wall, and it's a sailor
In a new port every night
Yet man was born to trouble
As the sparks fly upwards in a sense
Is this all we give
To be absolute
Is this all we get
To be absolute

I love how Isaac is showing off his high range more in this album. The music also advanced a lot since "How To Save a Life". The lyrics are amazing and I hope you guys never stop writing!

No Joke... !How to save a life has been playing in my car for the past 3 years, I've traveled across the states to see you guys play Amazing shows, and I even have lyrics from Trust Me tattooed on my ankle.... your music means soo much to me and I have you to thank! Please don't ever give in and change your style.
