Lately every day feels like a throwaway / Run away / Something’s calling back again / And I’m chasing cars, counting scars / Throwing voices in the dark / echoes on the wind / You can see this on my face, every second in this place shows through / When the lights go up on this faded town / And no one comes to see / Will you see all that you have missed? / Will you be waking? / I won’t be around for you to miss / Won’t catch me chasing you / Maybe everything’s been said and done, and everyone / Is happy to stay right here / But you can hear it in my voice / I won’t give myself the choice / I’m gone / When the lights go up on this faded town / And no one comes to see / Will you see all that you have missed? / Will you be waking? / I won’t be around for you to miss / Won’t catch me chasing you / When the lights go up on this faded town / Will you see all that you have missed? / Will you be waking? / I won’t be around for you to miss / Won’t catch me chasing you

Coming down off my last mistake / I’m finally down and out Still nearby as I lie awake / You’re looking kinda similar now ‘Cause there’s something / Something that keeps me back down Something / Something that turns me around / But that was more than I could say for when I’m sober / More than I could pray for when I’m older / More than I could see over my shoulder / And now I feel like I’m under the noose again / Hang me up, I’m the last offender / I gave it up and now it’s all gone / I might find an escape today / But I’ve got some serious doubts / All I need is some room to breathe for a while / Maybe find my way out / Then there’s nothing / Nothing could bring me back down / No nothing / Nothing could turn me around / But that was more than I could say for when I’m sober / More than I could pray for when I’m older / More than I could see over my shoulder / Under the noose again / Hang me up, I’m the last offender / I gave it up and now it’s all gone / Coming down off my last mistake / I’m finally down and out / And now I feel like I’m under the noose again / Hang me up, I’m the last offender / I gave it up and now it’s all gone

Icarus 03:03
I lie awake and wonder / It must be hard to take it all alone / You make an enemy of everybody / I lie awake and wonder / Ohhh ohhh ohhh / Ohhh ohhh ohhh / I don’t know how / Guess I never figured out / What’s the use in standing by / Tell me now / Why you’re always looking down / I see it all with the sun in my eyes / Try to be there for you / But you just keep it all away from me / It’s been a while / Since you’ve flashed that smile / Try to be there for you / Ohhh ohhh ohhh / I don’t know how / Guess I never figured out / What’s the use in standing by / Tell me now / Why you’re always looking down / I see it all with the sun in my eyes / Woah woah woah / Woah woah woah-oh / Woah Woah woah / Woah woah woah-oh woah / I don’t know how / Guess I never figured out / What’s the use in standing by / Tell me now / Why you’re always looking down / I see it all with the sun in my eyes

Home 03:03
3 AM and the world’s asleep / We just lie in the street / Where I am feels like I’m supposed to be / With your eyes on me / And I watched you spin ‘round other boys all night / Like a satellite / Like a satellite / And where you been don’t mean a thing tonight / No one else in sight / No one in sight / Don’t stop this now / I hate to bring you down / My head is reeling and I can’t go home / Don’t you leave me out / Don’t put me down/ Take me with you when you go / Oooh oooh oooh / Oooh oooh oooh / Oooh oooh oooh / When you go / Oooh oooh oooh / Oooh oooh oooh / Oooh oooh oooh / Home / We could be but I’ve kept it all away / I’ve got a lot to say / Nights like these / Always seem to give way / to such empty days / Don’t stop this now / I hate to bring you down / My head is reeling and I can’t go home / Don’t you leave me out / Don’t put me down / Take me with you when you go / Oooh oooh oooh / Oooh oooh oooh / Oooh oooh oooh / When you go / Oooh oooh oooh / Oooh oooh oooh / Oooh oooh oooh / Home

Bend Before We Break (free) 04:13
Let it rain / Let the thunder and lightning storm / Let it rain like hell while I toss and turn tonight / I don’t mind if it pours / It’s the storm between us / That keeps me up at night / I’m falling out of bed and going straight out of my mind / Oooh are we better off now? / Oooh are we better off now? / I know it can be so hard / To hear me out / Not another word about what we used to be / Oh no / Let’s just go back to the start / And if we start to fall apart again / Can we please just bend before we break? / Let it go / Let you find your way back home ./ Let you wander the dark as the streetlights flicker and fade / But I can’t let it go / And I won’t stay and wait / And let time tick away / So I chase you through the dark and jump at every shadow I meet / Oooh are we better off now? / Oooh are we better off now? / I know it can be so hard / To hear me out / Not another word about what we used to be / Oh no / Let’s just go back to the start / And if we start to fall apart again / Can we please just bend before we break? / Oooh are we better off now? / Oooh are you better off now? / I know it can be so hard / To hear me out / Not another word about what we used to be / Oh no / Let’s just go back to the start / And if we start to fall apart again / Can we please just bend?

Move along / Don’t drag your feet / Don’t hold your breath if you’re holding out on a rescue from me / Take a look around / And tell me / What have you done? / What have you done? / I’ve got a feeling like I’ve never had coming on / Having your back meant I was always looking behind / What I couldn’t see coming now I can’t get out of my mind / I’ve got a feeling like I’ve never had coming on / You had to take it all / You had to cross that line / I would have given you all in good time / You gave me everything or nothing / Where were you? / And where are you now? / You let me lift you up just to bring me down / Take a look around / And tell me where will you run? / Where will you run? / I get the feeling that you never had to take it all / You had to cross that line / I would have given you all in good time / You gave me everything or nothing / You had to go for broke / You had to bleed me dry / I would have given you all in good time / You gave me everything or nothing / Woah oh oh / Woah oh oh-oh / You had to take it all / You had to cross that line / I would have given you all in good time / You gave me everything or nothing / You had to go for broke / You had to bleed me dry / I would have given you all in good time / You gave me everything or nothing

Wire & Glass 03:51
String it up piece by piece on a line / Spins and twists in the wind / Watch it and wait for the moment to arrive / That you fear in your heart / The weight gets too much / The line too thin / Just as it lets go you finally give in / These pieces come down / And shatter on the ground / Leave us to drag our feet through it now / Left out alone / Stripped to the bone / Wire and glass is all that you are / A stranger at home / And nobody knows / How easily wire and glass come apart / Ooh ooh ooh ooh / Play it out scene by scene in your mind / Changes and twists in the script / Watch out and wait for them to arrive / The ones to play their part / The wait gets too long / Their numbers too thin / Just as you break down they finally break in / Your wire’s unwound / And scattered all around / Leave it to wind through the streets of your town / Left out alone / Stripped to the bone / Wire and glass is all that you are / A stranger at home / And nobody knows / How easily wire and glass fall apart / Ooh ooh ooh ooh / Oooh ooh ooh ooh / Left out alone / Stripped to the bone / Wire and glass is all that you are / A stranger at home / And nobody knows / How easily wire and glass come apart / Left out alone / Stripped to the bone / Wire and glass / A stranger at home / And nobody knows / Wire and glass

Beacon 03:45
Leaving shore in my wake / Chartless course, no time to make / Looking out, glancing behind / Underway, intertwined / All ahead, undefined / Beacon light barely shines / But it shines.

about
