I Did This to Myself
03:30
|
|||
|
I open my eyes and see the world's not nearly as bright without you
And I've been feeling even more heart sick than I have ever been
Because you’re my best life
I’ve only come to understand it
and now all of my dreams don’t hold the same weight as before
Because you’re missing
How much longer til the fever ends?
Because I'm starting to think I might be breaking it
And when I wake will you be around still?
I'm trying, I'm trying to get well
I'm trying to break these habits in myself
When our eyes were still meeting
I had it all but I threw it down a wishing well
to find answers
Now deep sighs live within me
I haven't felt all that well since you went away
Come and cure me
How much longer til the fever ends?
Because I'm starting to think I might be breaking it
And when I wake will you be around still?
I'm trying, I'm trying to get well
I'm trying to break these habits in myself
Because when I think about the things that always got in our way
I dug down and I found that it was all my fault
Now nothing matters anymore since I don't have you with me
So come on now, come on now
How much longer til the fever ends?
Because I'm starting to think I might be breaking it
And when I wake will you be around still?
I'm trying, I'm trying to get well
I'm trying to break these habits in myself

Like You Mean It
03:40
|

|
All these subtle glances have got me reading in-between the lines
but i’m not good with spaces
my mind just fills them with more unclear signs
Are we doing okay? or are we quickly running out of time?
Oh please, will you just say it
because I need to something for this heart of mine
Just say it like you mean it
Because I could use a little help
Calming all this fear and doubt
Just say it like you mean it
In these idle moments our eyes burn holes deep into the floor
as the silence finds its way into the words that we've been searching for
I can hear your heartbeat
it's racing but not like before
it’s pounding and its wondering
if we can we get back, get back to what we've said we wanted
Just say it like you mean it
Because I could use a little help
Calming all this fear and doubt
Just say it like you mean it
Just say the words because anxious hearts need reassuring
and even the most simple phrase can break the hardest doubts
Just say you want to stay and fight for what we’ve started
that this is where you want to be and all you want is now
Say you want to stay
Say you want this life
Say you want our love and we can make this right
Because we can make this right
Just say it
Just say it
Just say it like you mean it
Because I could use a little help
Calming all this fear and doubt
Just say it like you mean it

Nightmares
05:02
|

|
Lay your head down, baby go to sleep
and I’ll be here to hold you through those waking scenes
when the fire comes and water fills your lungs
when all around you fails to hold you I will come
I will come hold you close
I will come hold you close
When the voices are all you hear
the memories of harm embodied that brought you here
For how long will you be alone?
Which voices will you make your own?
If you find you’ve lost your way
I’ll whisper in and guide you to a place that’s safe
I will show you where the angels hide away
and I will follow you and make sure you’re okay
Until the nightmares go away
I will hold you close and love those fears away
And in the morning if you don't feel safe
I will hold you close and I will, I will stay
I will hold you close and I will, I will stay
When the nightmares hold you down
and you feel you’re sinking into the ground
I will never let them, never let them take you away
Until the nightmares go away
I will hold you close and love those fears away
And in the morning if you don't feel safe
I will hold you close and I will, I will stay
I will hold you close and I will, I will stay
I will hold you close and I will, I will stay

Same New Love
04:19
|
|||
|
Watch our steps fall in time
the same old dance we’ve done
a thousand times
with its highs and its lows
and its "I don’t knows"
and "it’s fines”
First it takes hold of you
then everything fades in the room
It’s all so familiar
yet everything’s feeling so new
This time we’ll go it alone
They don’t see the love that’s still burning inside of our bones
We're still holding on to
something we know is real
Take another spin around the room
With bated breath all eyes fall on you
They’re waiting for something
they’re waiting to see this one through
Are you so sure of this time?
They seem to all say with their eyes
Because it’s so far down
when hopes are so high
This time we’ll go it alone
They don’t see the love that’s still burning inside of our bones
We're still holding on to
something we know is real
And while everyone's standing in line
Waiting for a moment to say
what they think of this time
We'll keep dancing on
Let this same new love prove them wrong
When the music starts playing
we’ll step into the light
I’ll pull you in closer
and we’ll begin finding our stride
We’ll start it off slow
so our bodies will know
in this same new love’s our song
and this time it plays on
This time we’ll go it alone
They don’t see the love that’s still burning inside of our bones
We're still holding on to
something we know is real
And while everyone's standing in line
Waiting for a moment to say
what they think of this time
We'll keep dancing on
Let this same new love prove them wrong

Secrets
04:00
|

I kissed a girl and she replied
Keep it down low
Keep it down low
We can pretend it's alright if you
Keep it down low
Keep it down low
With innocent eyes but a wild heart
A touch of devil in the way she'd make
Your heartbeat hesitate
She'd draw you in from the very start
In the shadows, in the dark
Where no one would ever know
Keep the lights down low
Keep the lights down low
Making you feel you’ve come alive
In the way she'd stir up inside
A willingness to go
By selling you sweetness in a lie
Like you can have whatever you'd like
If we'd only get alone
And you
Keep the lights down low
Keep the lights down low
Keep the lights down low
No one has to know
No one has to know
When the secrets out
will this all mean anything
Or were you just playing games?
And yet, where are we now?
Does this all mean anything
when you keep saying
Keep the lights down low
Keep the lights down low
Keep the lights down low
No one has to know
No one has to know
I kissed a girl and she replied
Keep it down

Forgetting History
04:46
|
|||
|
Take all those pictures of us, our history
erase them all so you can’t see
or be reminded of the way things were back then
and maybe then you’ll forget me
Because all those memories
I guess, they don't mean a thing
and in the end it’s just better to forget
yeah, love's not worth remembering
Is this really what you thought about it?
another thing that you can wish away
but was there really nothing good about us?
Either way, either way
I don’t want to forget of our love
I don’t want to leave it all behind
because you were worth it every time
With every passing moment,
as a lumineer time brings to light all that we've lost
And I've lost a lot
because you were everything I'm not
and everything that made me better
But maybe it's just me
and what you began to see
was after everything that we went through
there was nothing really there for you
and nothing left for you with me
Is this really what you thought about it?
another thing that you can wish away
but was there really nothing good about us?
Either way, either way
I don’t want to forget of our love
I don’t want to leave it all behind
because you were worth it every time
You said this was forever
but your lies sound the same
You said this was forever
If one day you find that you still remember me
and all those memories we made together
come on flooding back in your memory
maybe then you’ll see you should have never walked away
Is this really what you thought about it?
another thing that you can wish away
but was there really nothing good about us?
Either way, either way
I don’t want to forget of our love
I don’t want to leave it all behind
because you were worth it every time

Flawless
05:34
|

I'm just a shadow of the person I pretend
Hidden behind the lie’s a fragile, jealous man
When I entertain the voices in my head
I’m never strong enough to let the good ones win
If I were to be an honest man, you would go
So I will always just pretend so I will never be alone
So I will never be alone
I will do anything to make sure you believe
I don’t need anything because that’s what people need of me
So I won’t be a burden, no I won’t make a scene
I will lose myself if that’s what keeps you next to me
If I were to be an honest man, you would go
So I will always just pretend so I will never be alone
So I will never be alone
Oh I'm begging please
someone look at me and notice
that I’m not what it seems
there’s someone underneath who's broken
But it’s not safe to be real when people need you flawless
So I will hide it all away so I will never be alone
So I will never be alone
So I will never be alone
So I will hide it all away so I will never be alone
So I will never be alone
So I will never be alone
If I were to be an honest man, you would go
So I will always just pretend so I will never be alone
If I were to be an honest man, you would go
So I will always just pretend so I will never be alone
So I will never be alone

Echoes
03:44
|

Eager eyes
I can feel them peering inside
and if I’m alive I’ve never breathed a day in my life
It’s empty in these hallways
They lead on endlessly to rooms I never go in for fear of what I’d see
When it surrounds you can you feel it like I do?
These echoes inside, can you tell me what it feels like?
And can you tell me that it’s all right when the fire inside won’t keep me warm?
Because I’m alive but I’m finding it hard to be alone
And these feelings inside won’t warm these bones
All around inside I can feel the absence of
the signs of life and love the silence covers up
because I’ve sent all of the guests away
all I’m left with is empty space
When it surrounds you can you feel it like I do?
These echoes inside, can you tell me what it feels like?
And can you tell me that it’s all right when the fire inside won’t keep me warm?
Because I’m alive but I’m finding it hard to be alone
And these feelings inside won’t warm these bones
send them all away
i’m not ready for them
I just need some time
to clear these ghosts inside
To open all the doors
and let the hidden come to light
When it surrounds around you can you feel it like I do?
These echoes inside, can you tell me what it feels like?
And can you tell me that it’s all right when the fire inside won’t keep me warm?
Because I’m alive but I’m finding it hard to be alone
And these feelings inside won’t warm these bones

Hurricane
04:40
|
|||
|
I’ve been searching for a sign
that will guide this wandering heart of mine
because I can’t seem to move away from this
I keep wandering but never leaving what we left
Because I keep seeing you at all my turns
and hoping you would stay
that we could find a way
I still love you like the old days
I still love you like the first times we would talk and our hearts would race
I still love you like I did those days before this silence and distance came
because our love’s a hurricane
Was it foolish, then, to fall in love
if it was never meant to last or to survive in us?
And all the pieces that we're picking up
I feel them now
Do you feel them now?
It’s what’s left of us
I’m not ready to give up on us
there’s gotta be a way
for this to pass and where all that’s broken will fade away
I still love you like the old days
I still love you like the first times we would talk and our hearts would race
I still love you like I did those days before this silence and distance came
because our love’s a hurricane
It came in strong and took our breath away
We found our love in a beautiful display
But then it hit and it took everything
now it’s over, now it’s over
I know that I’m the one to blame
Because I let my pride get in the way
And I know it's far too late
But I'm sorry, I'm sorry

We built our home on lovers' wings
and we filled it up with all our lovers' dreams
and we held each other to keep us warm
but the cold it lingered long after the storms
How long until we lose it all because we've lost our fight?
How long until we say it’s all not worth another try?
How long until we fade away?
We built our walls to fill the space
of our lovers' dreams when we put them away
and we sat alone waiting up with the lights on
Just waiting for something to bring back what had gone
How long until we lose it all because we've lost our fight?
How long until we say it’s all not worth another try?
How long until we fade away?
How long will we try to stay when our love is falling?
Because our love is falling
our love is falling
our love is falling
our love is falling
our love is falling
our love is falling down
