Lose the Plot
03:45
|
|||
sounding like a broken record
tell me when I skipped a beat
can you keep it all together?
I need you, now, more than ever
you seem like a different person
not quite like you were before
try to keep keep yourself together
I need you, now, more than ever
out of my head
there goes my train of thought
tell me again
I always lose the plot

Left Shoulder
03:02
|
|||
whisper softly in my ear
tell me what I want to hear
you’re the devil on my left shoulder
getting louder as I grow older
you will call me by my name
show me how to play your game
drown me out with all the noises
whisper softly in my ear
tell me where we go from here
drown me out with all the noises
I'll tune out the other voices

Better Late
04:00
|
|||
everything I’ve owned
still exists, somewhere
went by our childhood home
and part of me is still there
too little to measure
better late than never
some things last forever
better late than never
staying close to home
‘cause all I need is still there
I’m taking the long road
everyone I’ve known
is out there, somewhere
everything I’ve owned
still exists, somewhere
I’m taking the long road

Secret
03:53
|
|||
I remember
cold November
in the basement
away from you
late night phone call
fly on the wall
In your bedroom
away from me
I’ll never tell you
another secret
wouldn’t believe me anyway
not too clever
I could never
do this forever
but it’s better left unsaid
I remember
warm September
under your bed
away from you
not too clever
I could never
do this forever
but it’s better left unsaid
do this forever
but it’s better left unsaid
and I can tell you
don’t want to hear it
wouldn’t believe me anyway

Embrace
03:02
|
|||
time is just not on our side
as we wait for you
I’m hearing voices in the room
every afternoon
counted all of my days
going nowhere
you followed along
this is the best place to feel
a warm embrace.
I’m hearing voices in the room
every afternoon
something only existed
‘cause nothing
was proving me wrong
time is just not on our side
as we wait for you

Aimless
03:41
|
|||
in my town
there’s a man who walks the streets
aimlessly
any time I go out
he’s always there
he’s everywhere
in my town
there’s a man who walks the streets
haunting me
left the station
with no destination
in my house
there’s a man who talks to me
constantly
he says
he’s waiting
he’s waiting
for me to join in
I say
I’m ready
I’m ready
to go with him
in my town
I’ve become the man who walks the streets
aimlessly

In the Clouds
04:16
|
|||
left on my own today
a message to relay to you
I sent on all frequencies
transmissions I hope you're receiving
reaching out
take my hand
pull me down
don’t let go until we land
head in the clouds today
stayed up too late and I’m sleeping in
I read you loud and clear
there are no answers there for me
|

Present
02:53
|
|||
chasing the moment, but I‘ll never hold it
try to take it slow, so, where does the time go?
every second you spend living in the present
is a gift you can see only in your memory
|

My Mistake
03:26
|
|||
I always knew that you’d let me down easily
down on the floor
dust me off
I’m on my way
I will admit I’ve seen you around recently
came back for more
at the door
so clear the way
and as luck would have it
you never broke the habit
either way, you’ll have it
you’ll never break the habit
so here you are, sitting in the car, next to me
but I can tell
that your mind
is somewhere else
it’s my mistake
you’re impossible today

Red Shift
02:42
|
|||
light from my star
will first reach your eyes
millions of years
after I’m gone
you held me closer as we stared into the empty
just two planets aligned
only for a moment
I can barely see
your dull, fading glow
so if you're still around
I will never know
|

Castaway
03:42
|
|||
let me take you
down to the ocean
can I take you
down to the sea?
we could swim out
far from the shoreline
going under
just you and me
throw myself into the water
throw myself into the sea
it’s as clear as day
you’re slipping away
can I take you
into the water?
let me take you
into the deep
we can dive in
far past the shallows
going under
just you and me
throw myself into the water
throw myself into the sea
it’s as clear as day
you’re slipping away
but who am I to say
when I’m the castaway
throw myself into the water
throw myself into the sea

Heaven
03:50
|
|||
goodnight and goodbye
didn’t hear a word that you said
so tell me why
I’ve still got your voice in my head?
stay out of sight
stay out of mind
someday I will die
and my final words will be “I’m going to heaven”
and you’ll wonder why
you’ve still got my voice in your head
stay out of sight
stay out of mind
hold on tonight
you’ll be alright
I’m going to heaven
so please don’t cry
I’m going to heaven
so please don’t cry
I’ll be right beside you
as you watch me die
I’m going to heaven
so please don’t cry
