Few Words
03:30
|
|||
thinking back on the past
picture frames in black
out of sight, out of mind
take me there
let it go, slow the flow
stopping in your tracks
out of sight, out of mind
give it back
he's a man of few words
better seen, but not heard
all alone, should've known
took the long way home
out of sight, out of mind
where’d you go?
you will see
you don’t need to put on a show
so, let it go
|

Only Child
04:28
|
|||
where does it hurt?
when will this end?
will you let yourself break before you bend?
when you're alone
you talk to yourself
just to make sure you’re still alive and well
so what can I say?
you’re like night and day
couldn't be better
under the weather
only heaven knows
how far this will go
how is the weather?
will it get better?
there’s no shadow
beyond your a doubt
still not smart enough to figure it out
when you're alone
you talk to yourself
just to make sure you’re still alive and well
you were an only child
a trial run
you missed it by a mile
your father’s son

Out Loud
03:44
|
|||
always up to something
never down to try
you’re so good at reading faces
can’t look you in the eye
so what now?
if you know, say it out loud
tell me how, here and now
say it out loud
so, I missed the last train
saved pennies for thoughts
I’ve never had the best timing
been missing a lot
so what now?
you don’t know
so, leave it alone

Wake
03:29
|
|||
I’ve been driving all night long
didn’t let you tag along
if I left it up to you
would you ever follow through?
hate to break it to you
something has changed
I’ve been waiting all night long
drag this out, string me along
at the point of no return
you’ll have a new bridge to burn
and something has changed
hate to break it to you
I’m sleeping at the wheel
so, tell me if I’m dreaming
because everything feels so real
I’ve been driving all night long
should have let you come along
could have left it up to you
now you’ll never follow through
|

Dull Roar
03:39
|
|||
we’re the living dead
and these never-ending times are tough
voices in my head
say it’s never mending, but close enough
I’l keep to myself
so I’ll remain a memory
now you’re living good
but you’re never spending time alone
and it’s understood
there’s a payment pending of all you own
I’ll remain a memory
at a loss for words that you wanna say
so now you barely speak
late at night, when you are fast asleep
is when you talk to me
|

Anything and Everything
03:32
|
|||
under my breath
what can you hear?
count my blessings
out of fear
say anything
just to fill the silence
just give me something
tried everything
to put it all behind us
so give me something
never too far
and never near
out of guesses
I disappear
|

In the Noise
04:15
|
|||
no one will hear this song
you’ll never sing along
hiding out in plain sight
never to see the light
always waiting
undiscovered
lost in the noise
gonna live off the land
'cause nothing went as I planned
hiding out in plain sight
hope you still see the light
always waiting
undiscovered
slowly fading
won’t recover
lost in the noise
no one will hear this song
you'll never sing along
hiding out in plain sight
hoping to see the light
|

Old Routine
03:19
|
|||
life of its own
been scared to death
hidden away
under your breath
your quick and dirty, old routine
keeps you forever coming clean
cold city air
keep warm at night
always alone
stay out of sight
open your eyes
lights in disguise (the skies)
could they be stars
or satellites?
|
||||

Pattern
03:43
|
|||
you’ve been trying hard to cover up all the sounds I’m making
talking to yourself to drown me out
under blankets, fading
won’t be getting out of bed today, I heard the sounds you’re making
talking to myself to drown you out
under the covers, waiting
going nowhere, so unaware
I will come to your defence.
what’s the matter with this pattern?
always sitting on the fence
talking to yourself to drown me out
|

Illusions
03:47
|
|||
you've always had a strange notion
that someone’s pulling your strings
looking for patterns everywhere
you’ve connected everything
do you ever get the feeling that someone's pulling your strings?
behind my back
you put up a front
no surprises
start to crack
not fooling anyone
with your disguises
you would never let yourself think
that everything will be fine
been in too deep for so long now
your eyes can’t handle the light
you’re so blinded by the notion
they've got you in their sights
|
||||

Over My Head
03:10
|
|||
thinking about the time I lost the connection
can you show me how to make a correction?
in over my head
get me out of bed
ungrateful, half-dead
nothing to show you
time is passing by
lost in your reflection
you looked at me and said
‘quit while you’re ahead’
come with me instead
I want to know you
|
||||

By the Stairs
04:56
|
|||
didn’t see me standing there
in the hall
by the stairs
revolving door, open and shut
out of frame
in the cut
lies beneath you tell yourself
truth be told
it’s getting old
one foot out to step away
the other one
still in the grave
after the fall
leaves me back out in the cold again
dead of winter
breaking the ice every now and then
heard the sound of of broken glass
under foot
underpass
won’t you plead a different case?
drop your guard
just for today
