Stretching time like a rubber band
Look for diamonds in the black sand
In a dream where I would take your hand
You would tell me that you understand
A heavy heart in hiding, full of fear but still fighting
Don't knock it till you try it
Just rake me over the coals, this is the life that I chose
I can take it now
Sleepwalk, am I closing doors?
Like a lovesick troubadour
It's not you, it's just love and war
I guess I'm always wanting something more
All the time I spent waiting and rewriting pages
And now I fuckin' hate it
It's like I'm stuck in a movie, saddest scene is on repeat
I don't know what you mean to me
I gave you fire baby, and then I put it out
All the hope we had turning into doubt
I see it in your heart, I taste in your mouth
Now I hear your words out loud, crying out

Moving Away
03:31

You can make yourself a paper plane
But it won't fly in the pouring rain
If you're moving away, there's a price you will pay
For flying away
I can take a hit
I can get over it
I can find a new love too
You don't hear me when I say your name
You won't find anybody else to blame
If you're hearing the sound with your feet on the ground
You know it is the end
I can get the car
I can drive so far
Drive so far away from you
If I find you on a sinking ship
And you say fuck it, you say you're over it
Fight the fear as it grows, time is moving so slow
You're there all alone
I could ease your mind
I could throw you a line
I could be your dream come true
There's a world out there
We come and go out of thin air
Stars and dust will become you
Let go, let go, let go, let go
Let go, let go, let go, let go
Let go, let go, let go, let go
Let go, let go, let go, let go

Forever

When I felt it with you
Thought I'd feel it forever
In a moment of truth
In the thick of the letter
It's the weight and the wealth
In the wake of the weather
When I felt it with you
Thought I'd feel it forever
It's a heart that you're given
A diamond or pearl
You're a part of the living
Somewhere out of this world
In a dream, in a vision
In the palm of your hand
If fear is a weakness
Love will redeem us
When I felt it with you
Thought I'd feel it forever
In a moment of truth
In the thick of the letter
It's the weight and the wealth
In the wake of the weather
When I felt it with you
Thought I'd feel it forever
Right back where we started from
Right back where we started from
Make war and call it love
So much for breaking up
Right back where we started from
Right back where we started from
When I felt it with you
Thought I'd feel it forever
In a moment of truth
In the thick of the letter
It's the weight and the wealth
In the wake of the weather
When I felt it with you
Thought I'd feel it forever

Slow Motion
03:45

I can see you getting close to my heart
Walking through shadows in the dark
Are you a lighthouse bound to the sea
You never rang a broken bell like me
And I want it but I can't have it now
Just a little bit would take me down, take me down
I can see you getting close to my heart
You made it here, you must've come so far
Are you a lighthouse bound to the sea
Spinning in circles saving fools like me
Is broken just open
What's missing and who's hoping now
Who's hoping now
Slow motion deep like the ocean
Passion, no poison, this is devotion
I can see you getting close to my heart
Deep like the ocean
I can see you getting close to my heart
This is devotion
And I want it but I can't have it now
Just a little bit would take me down, take me down
I can see you getting close to my heart
Walking through shadows in the dark

Wasting My Time
02:50

Nobody wants you like I do
Nobody knows you like I do
Nobody loves you like I do
Nobody, nobody
Nobody wants you like I do
Nobody knows you like I do
Nobody loves you like I do
Nobody, nobody
Wasting my time, wasting my time
You're no help when you put up a fight
One more time and we'll get it all right
Wasting my time, wasting my time
When I say it you know that it's true
I only wanted to be with you
Nobody wants you like I do
Nobody knows you like I do
Nobody loves you like I do
Nobody
Nobody wants you like I do
Nobody knows you like I do
Nobody loves you like I do, like I do
Wasting my time, wasting my time
You're no help when you put up a fight
One more time and we'll get it all right
Wasting my time, wasting my time
When I say it you know that it's true
I only wanted to be with you
Wasting my time, wasting my time
You're no help when you put up a fight
One more time and we'll get it all right
Wasting my time, wasting my time
When I say it you know that it's true
I only wanted to be with you

Head Over Heals
05:34
|

Was I charming in disguise
Like an ocean, so deep and wide
Did I know you in another life
In another place another time
Were you searching for a rescue
Were you dying just to know the truth
Well, babe I got some bad news
I don't know how to save you
I know you're trying so hard
I know you're trying so hard
Baby when you gonna let go
Baby when you gonna let go
Of the feeling that you can't shake
That feeling when your heart breaks
'Cause now you know, you know, I let you go
Milk and honey from a honey bee
The temptation it was killing me
Like a lover that is hard to leave
Though you know that you should set it free
Like the dreams that I had already
So convinced I could hold it steady
Let the water come and break the levy
Let it show you when it's good and ready
I know you're trying so hard
I know you're trying so hard
Baby when you gonna let go
Baby when you gonna let go
Of the feeling that you can't shake
That feeling when your heart breaks
'Cause now you know, you know, I let you go
Grow the garden, lock the gate
Watch the magic dissipate
So close and yet we can't relate
I couldn't win, you couldn't wait
I know you're trying so hard
I know you're trying so hard
Baby when you gonna let go
Baby when you gonna let go
Of the feeling that you can't shake
That feeling when your heart breaks
'Cause now you know, you know, I let you go
I can see it now, I can see you far away
Past the clouds in the light of day
Just like time we slip away
I can see it now, I can see you far away
Past the clouds in the light of day
Just like time we slip away

Losing You
03:19
|

What you want
What you need
What you know
Let it go
Let it bleed
What we were and used to be
The honey from the bees
The bruises on my knees
Trying hard to keep up
The motion and the speed
I don't remember how to surrender
Lover or pretender
I can feel the weight letting it go
Getting into bed with someone I don't know
I'm losing my mind
Pulls you like a riptide
Cuts you like a wolf cry
And I just wanna stay high
Lost in a dark night
I think I'm losing you
I think I'm losing you
I think I'm losing you
I think I'm losing you

Feel For You
03:24
|

Why'd you have to come around
I thought I had my shit worked out
I've got a lot of work to do
The city has no room for you
Do you ever think of me
Everything we thought we'd be
I don't have you in my bed
But you're fucking with my head
I don't like what you do to me
I don't know how to make you leave
Just when I thought I'd made it out
I'm losing everything I found
And if I have to feel for you
Why don't you have to feel it too
Stand true to the words I say
I can't find the love we made
I don't have you in my bed
But you're fucking with my head
I don't like what you do to me
But I don't know how to make you leave

No Good
03:38

It's not that you're no good
You're just no good for me
It's not that you're no good
You're just not good to me
Diving in and diving deep
What it was and could not be
Broken heart upon my sleeve
How I want to set it free
It's not that you're no good
You're just no good for me
It's not that you're no good
You're just not good to me
Lose the vision, lose the light
Lose a lover, lose your mind
Wreck the ship and blame the night
Wishing you could turn back time
Looking back I see it now
Bluest skies, the darkest clouds
All the hope and all the doubt
Now I know what love's about
Sorry that I let you down
It's too late to stop it now
It's not that you're no good
You're just not good to me
It's not that you're no good
You're just no good for me
It's not that you're no good
You're just not good to me
It's not that you're no good
You're just no good for me
It's not that you're no good
You're just not good to me
It's too late to stop it now

You're High
02:58
|

|
When it hits you like a cold wind
All alone in the deep end
You don't know how to pretend
There's nothing left to defend
Now I know, yes I know, yes I know
You were never gonna let it grow
Now I know, yes I know, yes I know
You were never gonna let it grow
You can feel it when it feels right
You can feel it when you're out of time
A hot sun on a dark night
Out of mind and out of sight
(Were you high?)
Now I know, yes I know, yes I know
You were never gonna let it grow
(Were you high?)
Now I know, yes I know, yes I know
You were never gonna let it grow

Used To Know
02:32
|

|
I was asking for too much
Don't know when I've had enough
Now you know it, it's in my blood
The fire and then a flood
I guess that tells you what I used to know
I used to know, before you
Were you trying to fuck me up
And wish me the best of luck?
Were you drinking out of the cup
When it was too hot to touch?
I guess that tells you what I used to know
I used to know, before you
Are you feeling it now?
Are you feeling it now?
Are you feeling it now?
Are you feeling it now?
Are you feeling it now?
