Fall
Seize
I am merely debris
Scattered along the ground
False
Rage
A man in a cage
An explosion without a sound
Drawn
By the deafening din
Crumbling into dust
Look
Down
Watching me drown
Choking on my disgust
And when I surface again
I will not breathe the same air as you
And once my enemies are slain
My lungs will drink the liquid sky
Sink
Sleep
Drawing me deep
Pulling me underneath
Push
Strain
For the distant terrain
Struggling just to breath
Freeze
Fold
A story untold
A disaster that could have been
A precursor perhaps
To the cruelest collapse
A sign that I should have seen
And when I surface again
I will not breathe the same air as you
And once my enemies are slain
My lungs will drink the liquid sky
Burst
Through
The smothering blue
Falling into the sky
Rebirth
For whatever its worth
If only just to defy
Crush
Burn
With little concern
Feasting upon my prey
Tear
Rend
Expediting the end
Of everything in my way
And when I surface again
I will not breathe the same air as you
And once my enemies are slain
Come away for evermore.
We could place everyone on the floor.
We could love them as our own,
But we watch from above all alone.
All our lives,
We put them out of sight and out of mind.
But it goes to the bone,
So put your shoes back on, We're going home.
We're going.
Put away our dirty face.
Smile away tired eyes we replace.
What have we done?
Can we see?
Everyone watching as we recede.
All our lives,
We put them out of sight and out of mind.
But it goes to the bone,
So put your shoes back on, We're going home.
We realize our faults and cover up our eyes.
Our moment's over.
To the sound of nervous glances,
When I count the distance in light years
A part of me isn¹t satisfied I lost control and my sight
All the substance beneath my feet is gone
Behind my armor
I¹m safe In my orbit nervously
I just want to be disarmed by you
Then I would reach out into the surface
In this interstellar Ambience there¹s no perversity
Only obscurity of things that matter
I just want to be disarmed..
I just want to be disarmed by you
I just want to be disarmed..
I just want to be disarmed by you
When the moon is high
High over your head
When you're deep in thought
And time has no end
Where will you go?
Where will you go?
Come back to me
Come back and you'll see
When all hope is lost
So far gone, my friend
When you're past the point
Right over the end
Where will you go?
Where will you go?
Come back to me
Come back and you'll see
I've been swimming in a river of pain
Drowning again
Wish I could surface, baby
Swimming in a river of pain
Out of my brain
Hope I can save myself
This time
This time
This time
This time
When the sun is far
Far behind your bed
When you're down and out
And just no one's a friend
Where will you go?
Where will you go?
Come back to me
Come back and you'll see
I've been swimming in a river of pain
Drowning again
Wish I could surface, baby
Swimming in a river of pain
Out of my brain
Hope I can save myself
This time
This time
This time
This time
Where will you go?
All through my mind all the time
There's no right moment for signs
Wish no one was lost or around
I'll do it to you
Back and forth is this worth all the going through
Surfaced, I'll take it back
So nervous, I said I'll take it back
A secret so hard to hide it'll blow your mind
Heads up, shred all the evidence for a downhill ride
No one feels like I do
Some say it's all over
Erase all the colors
Save the others
Walk into it and you will find
If it's wrong or right show me now
All through the night
Unless it's found
A wicked effect inside
It'll blow your mind
No rest just test it out
You can't afford this time
No one feels like i do
Some say it's all over
Erase all the colors
Save the others
Some say it's all over
Erase all the colors
Save the others
Somebody has to surface - come from under your skin
Somebody has to bear down for his life to begin
May he strengthen on his way.
Let him know, if he could stay, I hope to meet him
I hope to see that day
Somebody has to sleep here in the fold of our arms
Somebody has to be here so we know who we are
May he come within our grasp, take our hands and hold them fast
I hope to meet him. I hope to hear his laugh.
Here we are in tiny hands
They carry our tiny beating hearts
Somebody has to grow up, be a brilliant young man
Somebody has to trust love, be as strong as we can
When the will of love is done may that sorrow never come
I want to meet you. I want to meet you, son
Here we are in tiny hands
It's a mental philosophy... what made you do it.
Why do you call out your riots without surfacing your message?
Why would you let yourself get run around by your...
[Chorus:]
I give to you your leader, I give to you your leader.
It's a mental philosophy, trust me we'll adapt in time.
But we don't need a leader, but we don't need a leader...
Trust me you need someone like me to pacify your weak and simple minds.
Now what son, questioning me?
I got you bent over the president's knee,
With his lobbyists, his conglomerates
and his cabinets filled with ageist prejudice.
I think it's time to take it back to reform run away and break away from the norm.
You wanna know why I'm so fucking pissed off?
Did you read the homeless list off? (Did you?)
The hopeless list off?
Why can't you see what you're fearing is not me?
Why can't you see it's inevitable?
Why can't you see what you're fearing is not me?
Why can't you see that it's tearing you away?
Why do you call out your riots, without surfacing your message?
Why would you let yourself get run around by your...
[Chorus]
But we don't need a leader
I watch the surface bleed as your eyes come up wide
And the pain is taken away
I'm caught up in silence as hold my thoughts only to destroy myself
Something came between us
A simple way to catch myself but it's all in your words
Something came between us and I'll be there for you
Everybody's searching
Trying to find a reason to live in this world of fallen kingdoms
Looking for a little truth
'Cause maybe just a little truth will get us through
So you find yourself believing you can jump into the deep end
And still survive, still survive
But you're coming to the surface, getting back in focus
Bound to find your way back home
Everybody's searching on
The devil's so deceiving
You can almost hear him creeping, dancing around your soul
And trying his best to keep you from the truth
'Cause he knows a little truth will get you through
So you hide there in the trenches building up defenses
To survive, just survive
But you're coming to the surface, getting back in focus
Determined you can get back home
Everybody's searching on
Life's hard, why do we make it so hard?
It's already hard, why do we make it so hard?
Coming to the surface, getting back in focus
Determined you can get back home
I know you'll find your way back home
If you don’t know how I feel for you
It’s time I let all feelings show
I love you, and I’ll never let you go, no baby
Right now we’re just friends
But I pray some day you surrender
To you so tender, I won’t push you
As long as you know that my love is true
Get closer to you, baby
Closer than just friends
I want to get closer to you, baby
Yeah, closer than just friends
How about you, how about you
It’s hard to explain when you’re close to me
I get a warm sensation inside
I can’t deny this, I want to try it
Each and every time you come by
Girl, I don’t wanna lose your love
By putting my cards on the table
You know I’m thankful for what we have
But I have feelings inside
They’re so strong I can’t hide
Get closer to you, baby
I want to get closer than just friends
Get closer to you, baby
Yeah, closer than just friends
How about you
(I know you’re probably thinking that you’ve heard this so many times before. But girl, when you’re here, I want you to stay, and when you’re gone, I want you even more every day)
Girl, I don’t wanna lose your love
By putting my cards on the table
You know I’m thankful for what we have
But I have feelings inside
They’re so strong I can’t hide
Get closer to you, baby
Closer than just friends
Get closer to you, baby
Closer than just friends
Oh, baby, closer than just friends
How about you, how about you
My baby, my baby, oh
Dear lady, closer than just friends
Me and you, I want to, how about you, oh
There’s nothing I won’t do to get close to you, oh baby
Closer, my baby
(I know, I know, I guess you’re used to people approaching you all the time. I guess most of the time people probably ask you out to lunch, to dinner, to the movies. I just wanna know if it’s possible that you and I could spend a little time together, all alone. Why don’t you think about it?)
I can’t believe what I saw with my own two eyes
The girl made my world spin all around when she walked by
I want you to know that I love you so
Maybe we can spend a little time to get to know each other
Can we spend some time together, all alone
Can we spend some time together, all alone
I know that so many guys approach you every day
A little time is all I need to prove the words I say, baby
I want you to know that I love you so
Maybe we can spend a little time to get to know each other
Can we spend some time together, all alone, you and me
Can we spend some time together, all alone
You’re the girl every girl wants to be
You’re the kind of girl that I want right here with me
Can’t you see that I’m in love with you
Won’t you please tell me how you feel about me
Can we spend some time together, all alone
You and me, you and me, baby
Can we spend some time together, all alone
Everybody knows, girl, that I love you so
And I want you here with me
Baby please, baby, baby please
Can we spend some time together, all alone
I can’t wait to get to school each day
And wait for you to pass my way
And bells start to ring
An angel starts to sing
Hey, that’s the girl for you
So what are you gonna do
Hey, little girl, I love you
All I do is think of you
Day and night, that’s all I do
I can’t get you off my mind
I think about you all the time, all the time
I’ve begun to take the long way home
Just so I can be alone
To think of how to say
My heart is here to stay
Hey, I’m in love with you
I think the world of you
So won’t you please, please be mine
All I do is think of you
Day and night, that’s all I do
I can’t get you off my mind
I think about you all the time, all the time
All I do is think of you
Day and night, that’s all I do
I can’t get you off my mind
I think about you all the time, all the time
Oh baby, I keep thinking about you
All night long, ooh
Baby, day and night that’s all I do
I can’t get you, can’t get you off my mind
All I do is think of you
Day and night, that’s all I do
I can’t get you off my mind
I think about
All I do is think of you
Day and night, that’s all I do
I can’t get you off my mind
I think about
All I do is think of you
Day and night, that’s all I do
I can’t get you off my mind
You know I won't forget
the time we shared together holding hands
And walking in the park
Sometimes we'll have to do it all again
we were so happy then
I have no regret
Can you tell from the look on my face that
I love you more today
Chorus
The first time I look into your eyes I cried
Do you remember the first time
We fell in love
You look into my eyes wiped the tears away
The first time
When we fell in love
Althought sometime has passed
I still remember just like it was yesterday
The time is moving fast
The love I have for you
Time won't ever change I'll always feel the same
Now until the end
Memories we've shared will live forever
Deep inside my heart I know I'll never fall again
This is surface
so let's dig deep with diamond tips
We'll rip this flesh from bone,
prove to ourselves that we can do this
On our own.
We'll find ourselves some meaning
and start asking for lyrics worth reading
and we'll stay so smart
follow our hearts
and keep our hands held high while you all
fall apart.
I'll sing this song at the top of my lungs
just to make sure you hear every word.
And i wish these words would ring so true
that they'll level you
and resonate until nothings left
I know you're not worth my breath.
I'll sing this song at the top of my lungs
Somewhere a dream away
There is a better place, a brighter day
Somewhere that's safe, somewhere that's free
Where we can be together
So just close your eyes and let me take you there
To somewhere only dreamers ever go
It won't be just a fantasy, oh no, if you believe with me
The two of us all alone in a world of our own
A world of our own
Where we know we belong
A world of our own
Where love is sure and strong, can never die
And lovers never say goodbye
Someday a light will shine
And there will come a time
That's yours and mine
A time so sweet, so clear and true
We'll see right to forever
So just close your eyes and let me take you there
To somewhere only dreamers ever go
It won't be just a fantasy, oh no, if you believe with me
The two of us all alone in a world of our own
A world of our own
Where we know we belong
A world of our own
Where love is sure and strong, can never die
And lovers never say goodbye
So wrap your arms around me
And we'll leave it all behind
We'll go where no-one else will ever find us
We can make it come true
Just by loving each other
The two of us all alone in a world of our own
A world of our own
Where we know we belong
A world of our own
Where love is sure and strong, can never die
My heart is filled with so much love
And I need someone I can call my own
To fall in love, that's what everyone's dreaming of
I hold this feeling, oh, so strong
Life is too short to live alone
Without someone to call my own
I will care for you, you will care for me
Our love will live forever
Shower me with your love
Shower me with the love that I long for
Shower me with your love
Shower me with the love I've been waiting for
I close my eyes and pray all my wishes come true
Every night I go to sleep
Until you're mine, I'll wait for you endlessly
Can't you see
Fairy tales, they do sometimes come true
If you believe, it could happen to you
Like the stars that shine way up in the sky
Our love will live forever
Shower me with your love
Shower me with the love that I long for
Shower me with your love
Shower me with the love I've been waiting for
Like the stars that shine way up in the sky
Our love will live forever
Live forever
Shower me with your love
Shower me with the love that I long for
Shower me with your love
Shower me with the love I've been waiting for
Shower me with your love
We don't have to say good bye no no
Our love will last forever girl
Forever I will love you
Forever I will be true
Forever I'll always be here right by your side
And every morning I'll be there
When you open your eyes
Chorus
Never gonna let you down
I'll always be around
I'll be here for you
Because I love you
Never gonna let you down
I'll always be around
I'll be here for you, I love you
Never no never no never won't let you down
Whenever you call my name
It sounds so good
I wanna hear it over again
You'll never have to look around
If ever you need a friend
I'll hold you and I'll give to you
My tender loving care
Chorus
Oh..How I've waited for so long
For someone just like you
To give to me the love that I've been waiting for
And yes, you took me by surprise
Opened up my eyes
Now I see and I know
Oh, dreams, dreams of you
I'll do anything to spend a little time with you
The way you turn my world all around, feels so good
When I go to sleep, late at night, all I see, girl is you
All I see is you
Baby, you blow my mind what am I supposed to do
Lately I've been dreaming to myself
And girl, I really want you bad
Lately I've been dreaming to myself
And girl, I really want you bad
Look into my eyes, what I'm going through
Might see something you like, a paradise for two, me and you
Oh, won't you take a little time now that you know how I feel
Don't need no lie detector to see I'm for real, I want you bad
Won't, won't, you do like you do
Late at night when I'm dreaming about you
Girl, you're one of a kind
I wish that you were my baby
Lately I've been dreaming to myself
And girl, I really want you bad
Lately I've been dreaming to myself
And girl, I really want you bad
Lately I've been dreaming to myself
And girl, I really want you bad
Lately I've been dreaming to myself
And girl, I really want you bad
Lately I've been dreaming to myself
The simple touch of your hand and everything is right
The gentle way you look at me when you kiss goodnight
You’ve given me the freedom no other love has done
And now I thank you, girl, thank you, girl
The countless ways you’ve touched my heart is more than I can say
The beauty that you showed to me takes my breath away
A picture-perfect painting, that’s what our love is
And yes, I need you so, and I know
I found a masterpiece in you
A work of art, it’s true
And I treasure you, my love
I found a masterpiece in you
A work of art, it’s true
And I treasure you
Sometimes I wonder what I’d be had I not found you
A lost and lonely soul, this world could show me nothing new
But now my life’s a canvas painted with your love
And it will always be, and now I see
The two of us together through time will never pause
This fairytale we’re sharing is real inside our hearts
Let it be forever, never let it end
This promise I do make, heaven is ours to take
And I found a masterpiece in you
A work of art, it’s true
And I treasure you, my love
I found a masterpiece in you
A work of art, it’s true
And I treasure you
When I am lost and insecure
You build me up and make me sure
Everything will turn out right
My love, oh girl
I found a masterpiece in you
A work of art, it’s true
And I treasure you, my love
I found a masterpiece in you
A work of art, it’s true
And I treasure you
This fairytale we’re sharing is real inside our hearts
Just us two, yeah, me and you, girl
Let it be forever, never let it end
No, no, please never let it end
I found a masterpiece in you
A work of art, it’s true
And I treasure you, my love
I found a masterpiece in you
A work of art, it’s true
Only you can make me happy, happy
Only you can make me happy
I never thought that I
I'd find someone like you
I feel hypnotized
With the things you do
I'll never let you go, no
You're so right for me
I have to let you know
Forever you and me
Only you can make me happy, happy
Only you can make me happy, happy
You must be Heaven sent
Sent into my life
And I compliment you baby, baby
We have a love that's strong and true
It's true in every way
I want to be with you each and every day
Only you can make me happy, happy
Only you can make me happy, so happy
Only you can make me happy, happy, happy
Only you can make me happy, so happy yeah
Hello
How you doing baby?
You know I was just thinking about you
You know I am glad to call
Would you come in right over?
Beautiful baby
I'll be waiting
I love you too
You're all I need in my life
I don't need no one
I don't need no one but you
You're all I need in my life
I don't need no one
I don't need no one but you
Only you can make me happy, happy, happy
Only you can make me happy, happy, happy, so happy
I need a little time alone with myself
Just to put my thoughts together and to clear my head
Seems I’ve come to a fork in the road, but where will I turn
No matter where I go I know there’s something I can learn
Falling in love is ever so sweet
When two become one, two people like you and me
Falling in love is ever so strong
Some say it’s a miracle for two people like us to fall in love
No, there’s nothing in the world that feels good like this
Not the special way that two people in love do
And I’m not afraid to say it’s happening now
Ever since that first hello I knew I’d never let you go
Falling in love is ever so sweet
When two become one, two people like you and me
Falling in love is ever so strong
Some say it’s a miracle for two people like us to fall in love
It’s something that’s beautiful
Could knock a strong man down to his knees
Yes, I know love is something that everyone understands
No matter who or where you are, love it comes from the heart
Falling in love is ever so sweet
When two become one, two people like you and me
Falling in love is ever so strong
Some say it’s a miracle for two people like us to fall in love
Falling in love is ever so sweet
We could be one, start a family, you and me
Fall in love is ever so strong
Some say it’s a miracle for two people like us
Falling in love is ever so sweet
We could be one, start a family, you and me
Fall in love is ever so strong
Some say it’s a miracle for two people like us
Falling in love
Fall in love is ever so strong
Some say it’s a miracle for two people like us
Who loves you like I do
Nobody
No one else is gonna give you love
I'll do anything for you
Means so much to me
Whoever said that
Dreams don't come true
I'm a witness
'Cause I'm lookin at you tonight
Every night I'm gonna
Fill your appetite to the limit
Feeling right, my one and only
Sugar sweet delight
Who loves you like I do
Nobody, nobody
Who loves you like I do
Nobody, nobody
My friends, they think that I'm a fool
Falling in love they never had
Oh so good, that's something won't do
I'm gonna love you til hurts you
I'm gonna love you til its understood
I've been waiting for someone
Just like you for so so long
Whatever I can do
Tell me baby, tell me baby
Since you came into my world
I feel so alive, so alive
But the best that I can do
Is show you how much I care
Who loves you like I do
Nobody, nobody
Who loves you like I do
Nobody, nobody
I've been waiting for someone
Just like you for so so long
Whatever I can do
Just tell me baby, tell me baby
Since you came into my world
I feel so alive, so alive
But the best that I can do
Is show you how much I care
Who loves you like I do
[Chorus X 2]
I missed
I must admit
But girl you're much too much for me to quit
I saw you standin all alone
And suddenly this thought crossed my mind
You and I
Sharing love we've never known
This feeling is oh so good to me
Baby
And when I said hello
You looked at me
Oh so sweet
It's you I'd like to know
But when you turned away and walked out the door
[Chorus X 2]
I missed
I must admit
But girl you're much too much for me to quit
Tell me what can I do
To make you see the way I feel is real
If only I
Could talk to you
Girl I know
You'd realize that I am the one for you
Can't get you off my mind
You totally
Stole my heart
Girl it's worth a try
To find out if there's a chance
[Chorus X 2]
I missed
I must admit
But girl you're much too much for me to quit
Give me one minute of your time
And I'll make it worth your while
It seems to me that you've been hurt by other guys
Cuz when I say hello you say goodbye
[Chorus X 3]
I missed
I must admit
But girl you're much too much for me to quit
My baby
My baby
The girl the girl the girl is fine
Wish that you were mine
Oh girl
I missed
But girl you're much too much for me to quit
I missed
I must admit
But girl you're much too much for me to quit
And when I said hello you looked at me, oh so sweet
It's you I'd like to know
Girl you're much too much for me to quit
But then you turned away and walked out the door
I missed
Girl you're much too much for me to quit
I missed
I must admit
Girls, girls, girls, girls
Girls were made to love
Girls need to be loved
Girls
There so sweet and always on my mind
Girls are always welcomed in time, what you do to me
Nothing else comes close to
How you set me free
I was made to love you, girl
Girls were made to love
Girls need to be loved
Girls
What would all the boys do without girls
Lose their minds, baby, yeah, girls
Look what you do to me
I just can't describe, no
I'll be your fantasy forever if you like
If it wasn't for you girl
I wouldn't be happy no
You opened up my world
And suddenly, I know you're the one for me
My girl, without you I'd go crazy
You're fresh as can be
I know that girls need to be loved
Girls were made to love
Girls need to be loved
Girls
Girl, you know, you're everything to me
Without you I wouldn't be.
I want to give you all
Love is always the key
Want you to be my girl
Baby, can't you see?
You were meant to be loved
Girls, girls need to be loved
If it wasn't for you girl
I wouldn't be happy
You opened up my world
And suddenly
I know you're the one for me
My girl, without you I'd go crazy
Fresh as can be
I know the girls need to be
To be in love
Girls need to be, to be in love
My baby need's to be loved
And need to be hugged
And she knows where to come
Oh, baby
You are my everything
You are my everything
You are my everything
You are my everything
When I'm feeling discouraged
Nothing seems to go my way
You lift me up and give me courage
To face this world another day
I get excited when I see you
Shiver when I look in your eyes
I'm glad I found you and I won't let go
And be forever by your side
You are my everything
You are my everything
When I need a friend to talk to
You tell me what I need to hear
And when I need someone to hold me tight
I turn to look and you appear
No one else can do the things you do
And ask for nothing in return
Now let me show how much I care for you
Giving you all the love that you deserve, 'cause you are
You are my everything
You are my everything
You are the one in my life
And I want you to stay
In my heart you comfort me
That's why I can truly say that you are
You are my everything
You are my everything
You are my everything

We're all searchin' for the same thing
Tender love in our life

We're all searchin' for the same thing
Girl
Since we've been apart
I've had some time to get myself together
And now I realize that you're the only one for me
Our need for each other
I just hope it's not too late
Tell me, tell me this girl
Girl it's plain to see
That you and I were meant to be together
Now I know that I was wrong
But this time I'll be sure to make it better
Since we split up
I'm not ashamed to say
Girl that I'm not the same
Without you
I'll give you all
All my love
Girl you're all I'm thinkin of
It's true
[Chorus]
Let's take our time
And try again
Maybe we can work it out
Let's take our time
And try again
Maybe we can work it out
Girl, I can't describe the way I'm feeling now that you're not in my life
Baby don't say no for I just can't bear to be here alone
Another night
If you meant the words
You said to me
The day I told you that I had to leave you
Said you always loved me
No matter what I say or do
Girl I love you too
Forever I'll be by your side
I'll never stop loving you
But I had to take a little time to find myself
You're always on my mind
I realize that I need you here right here, by my side
Maybe we can work it out
Maybe we can try again
[Chorus]
Let's take our time
And try again
Maybe we can work it out
Let's take our time
And try again
I look in your eyes, I really think you're fooling me
You're pretty and nice, it doesn't matter don't you see
I'm falling in love, it happens to me every day
I'm falling in love, love just seems to slip away
I'm falling in love
I'm falling in love
I'm falling in love
Don't tell me your lies, I don't believe a word you say
You do realize, I move around from day to day
I'm falling in love, it happens to me every day
I'm falling in love, love just seems to slip away
I'm falling in love
I'm falling in love
I'm falling in love
I'm falling in love
I'm falling in love
I'm falling in love
I'm falling in love
Intro:
Yeah...
So this is how you mend
On cold intricate floors
A lovely way to show
All the slits inside you
Refrain:
A cold surface
A little dangerous
A free fall in
A cold on set
The ordinary things
Don't matter to you on more
A high to reach through me
When you stalk in silence
So this is how you mend
We've established this is where we stand
We said after this we'll just be friends
But my heart don't really know my head
But my heart don't really know my head
We built this wall to keep out complication
We built this wall so we won't have to drown
In the depths where we can gratify temptation
And claim that love will only slow us down
These are not the words that I would like to be saying to you (be saying to you)
And I hope that in the morning you will feel the same way that I do (the same way that I do)
We never talk about the strings and the attachments
We just slam the brakes before it crashes
Will we ever take the chance to see what happens
What we really want we failed to mention
These are not the words that I would like to be saying to you (be saying to you)
And I hope that in the morning you will feel the same way that I do (the same way that I do)
I need you to wake up, I need to talk to you
I need you to wake up, before we let this go
I need you to wake up, I need you to wake up
These are not the words that I would like to be saying to you
These are not the words that I would like to be saying to you (be saying to you)
I need you to wake up, I need to talk to you
we've established this is where we standwe said after
this we'll just be friends
but my heart don't really know my head
no my heart don't really know my head
we built this wall to keep out complications
we built this wall so we won't have to drown
in the depths where we can gratify temptation
and claim that love will only slow us down
these are not the words that I would like to be saying to
and I hope that in the morning you will feel the same way
that I do
we never talk about the strings and the attachments
we just slam the brakes before it crashes
can we ever take the chance to see what happens
what we really want we fail to mention
I wish you would wake up cause I need to talk to you
I wish you would wake up before we let this go
I wish you would wake up
I want you to wake up
You know the things I've never told.
All the bad dreams and the good times I have known.
I can see the fire in your eyes.
It burned bluer the moment it met mine.
And tell me where you're from, and are your motives pure?
Fancy meeting such a lovely face like yours.
And I'd love to hold you in my arms.
You've got your mother's smile.
And I'd love to surface where you are.
Seems it's been many miles.
You've got the simplest little tell.
It's telling me everything I need to know
before we get to "tell me what's your name?"
And what are you gunning for?
Fancy meeting such a tortured soul like yours.
And I'd love to hold you in my arms.
You've got your mother's smile.
And I'd love to surface where you are.
Seems it's been many miles.
And call me reckless now
but don't you let that light go out.
It's the only thing helping me see.
And hold on to what's left,
lock it up inside your chest.
A treasure, for whoever sets you free.
And I'd love to hold you in my arms.
You've got your mother's smile.
And I'd love to surface where you are.
Seems it's been many miles.
I always watch you when you're sleeping with memories.
Outside your conscience glows, so white and clean.
You've got your golden halo.
I've got my eyes shut tight.
The bottom of the sea is where I’m gonna be
Cause every time I surface I sink
It’s a little bit dark and a little too cold
And my lungs are full of water I think
But I’ve gotten used to this if I come up I’m gonna miss
all the things that I’ll never have to say
Cause at the bottom of the sea no one here but me
Even though I’m drowning, I feel kind of safe
I’m gonna hold my breath just a little bit longer
I’m gonna down here just a couple more days
I might open my eyes under water
Where the salt blends in with the sea
That’s where I’m gonna be
I remember once, some time ago
I tried to come up for some air
So I gathered up my strength
Poured myself a double shot of gin just to be sure
Now I’m back underneath
The surface is not for me
So I’m gonna hold my breath just a little bit longer
I’m gonna down here just a couple more days
I might open my eyes under water
Cause that’s where the salt blends in with the sea
We can name this silence anything we wish.
Let it hide until it thrives.
Until it feeds and builds.
Until it feeds and builds.
And who will be the victim when this demon explodes?
When this demon explodes...
Look at what we created with this absence of words.
We gave... we gave it life
When we swallowed our tongues we turned our backs.
And we'll digest our differences
And slay our weakness.
And we'll digest our differences
And slay our weakness.
Diluting everything is perfect will only make it swell.
So let's carry this to the surface and unveil
And unveil.
And unveil.
And unveil.
We'll push our hearts to the foreground.
We'll push our hearts to the foreground.
Look at what we created with this absence of words.
We gave... we gave it life.
When we swallowed our tongues we turned our backs.
We'll push our hearts to the foreground
And focus on what's real...
Oceans surround me, I've surrendered all.
Please take me under, I'm welcoming the fall.
Flowing through motions, saying I'm awake.
My sense of security, was my own selfish trait.
I dream I'm floating on the surface of my life.
Passed are these days and upheld is my strife.
I dream I'm floating on the surface.
A proven strength, building Inside of us.
A proven strength, a heart-filled sense of trust.
A proven strength, unfathomable power.
A proven strength, calvary in my needed hour.
My harbor of fear, decayed with lies.
Gladly washed away, our distress fully capsized.
A glimpse of perfection, flooding over me.
