JASON'S BEST INDIVIDUAL LYRICS
10. If I knew all the words, I would write myself out of here
If I was all the colors, I would paint you pretty in gold
In a picture, so I'm told little sister
From 0% Interest

9. It takes no time to fall in love, but it takes you years to know what love is.
From Life is Wonderful

8. You can turn off the sun, but I'm still gonna shine.
From The Remedy

7. Fame is nothing more than loving someone
And fortune is nothing more than loving what you do
And in the eyes of love
Love will overcome
From Gypsy MC

6. Lady dreamer, you might be the soundest sleeper
tonight, sleep tight, build your nest upon my shoulder
From Clockwatching

5. I'm just a singer. You're the world.
From Bella Luna

4. Well I've seen a thousand things in one place, but I stopped my counting when I saw your face. Erasing memory I feel as though I've never seen a face before until I saw your eyes smiling back at me through my tears. I've been counting all these years. Now suddenly the thousand things I've seen were nothing more than dreams of you and me.
From 1,000 Things

3. Live high. Live mighty. Live righteously.
From Live High

2. Oh, the roads unencumbered by cats,
They're burning like wet matches through my miracle mile mind
You've left your thumbprint inside my now, for months, it seems.
But mine only brushes your soft surface, yet somehow,
It leaves me listless.
My tongue curls under my lips
So I can't speak to tell you of the months before I met you.
From 0% Interest

And presenting Jason's best lyric, according to fans...
1. And through timeless words and priceless pictures
We'll fly like birds not of this earth
And tides they turn and hearts disfigure
But that's no concern when we're wounded together
And we tore our dresses and stained our shirts
But its nice today, oh the wait was so worth it
From A Beautiful Mess
