I'm just a little bit afraid of it
The darkness and the light
It took me a while to realise
It's not that hard to find
That we could touch the stars with your hand in mine
If it's wrong, then we'll go and we'll make it right
When the stars and the planets align
When you feel like you're all out of time
When gravity isn't looking
We'll fly away, fly away
To a place where time is standing still
And we can make it on our own
Let's leave our fears behind
And soar into the unknown
When gravity isn't looking
We'll find our way home
It weighs so heavily on my heart
Like an anchor in the dead seas
Reminds me of what we could've been
And I still see it in my dreams
That we could touch the stars with your hand in mine
If it's wrong, then we'll go and we'll make it right
When the stars and the planets align
When you feel like you're all out of time
When gravity isn't looking
We'll fly away, fly away
To a place where time is standing still
And we can make it on our own
Let's leave our fears behind
And soar into the unknown
When gravity isn't looking
We'll find our way home
When the stars are out of reach and the night is closing in
I want to escape to a place without the weight all on my skin
And with you I'll break the chains, head to a place where we can see
A world with us where we are free and happy
Where I'll touch the stars with your hand in mine
It's not wrong, cause we'll go and we'll make it right
And the stars and the planets align
I promise I'll save you this time
When gravity isn't looking
We'll fly away, fly away
To a place where time is standing still
And we can make it on our own
Let's leave our fears behind
And soar into the unknown
When gravity isn't looking
We'll find our way home
We'll find our way home
We'll find our way home
We'll find our way home
We'll find our way

[Harri]
In a world of shadows, we collided
Underneath the city's glow, we resided
Lost in the sounds, a symphony of dreams
Our hearts entwined
And they're bursting at the seams
[Harri]
I know I can't have everything
But I know somewhere in a distant universe
There's a place with you and me
And if I can't have you here then
[Harri]
Hey, let's paint the sky with technicolor dreams
Where these hearts beat and it's more than it all seems
Let's paint the sky with technicolor dreams
What I can't have here has no meaning
[Harri]
So let's paint the sky with
Let's paint the sky with technicolor dreams
Let's paint the sky with
Let's paint the sky with technicolor dreams
Where these hearts beat and it's more than it all seems
What I can't have here has no meaning
[Autumn]
Hearts synchronised, they're beating cold and blue
I know, that we could be dangerous
And that much is true
You are the air I breathe that makes it hard to see
Like fallen angels, it's all a dying memory
[Autumn & Harri]
I know I can't have everything
But I know somewhere in a distant universe
There's a place with you and me
And if I can't have you here then
[Autumn & Harri]
Hey, let's paint the sky with technicolor dreams
Where these hearts beat and it's more than it all seems
Let's paint the sky with technicolor dreams
What I can't have here has no meaning
[Harri]
And I know I can't have everything
But I know somewhere in a distant universe
There's a place with you and me
[Autumn]
If I could turn back time and just rewind
To a place
[Autumn & Harri]
Before there's you and me
This could all be fantasy
(So)
[Autumn & Harri]
Hey, let's paint the sky with technicolor dreams
Where these hearts beat and it's more than it all seems
Let's paint the sky with technicolor dreams
What I can't have here has no meaning
(What I can't have here)
[Autumn & Harri]
So let's paint the sky with
Let's paint the sky with all our twisted schemes
Let's paint the sky with
Let's paint the sky with all my stolen dreams
Where these hearts beat and it's more than it all seems
What I can't have here has no meaning

I was feeling like royalty
I thought I had it all
I didn't see the shadows
I didn't hear the fall
When are you comin' around
I thought I had it made
Falling through these skies
Now I'm left in the shade, mm
No, I don't regret it
I can't forget it
Sometimes I wonder what if I'd stayed
What, we had was just a moment
And moments fade away
What, we had can't be unbroken
'Cause things would never change
When you know, you know
Caught in the afterglow
What, we'd have if you
Give me a reason
But there ain't a reason to stay
No
I was playing with fire
I thought I had it right
But I got caught in your web
Lost within the night, mm
No, I don't regret it
I can't forget it
Sometimes I wonder what if I'd stayed
What, we had was just a moment
And moments fade away
What, we had can't be unbroken
'Cause things would never change
When you know, you know
Caught in the afterglow
What, we'd have if you
Give me a reason
But there ain't a reason to stay
I didn't expect to see you again so soon
In the doorway of my best friend's place
Saw the look on your face (yeah)
You say you came to get your things
But I can't help but think
Sometimes I wonder
What if I'd stayed
What if I'd stayed
What, we had was just a moment
And moments fade away
What, we had can't be unbroken
'Cause things would never change
When you know, you know
Caught in the afterglow
What, we'd have if you
Give me a reason
But there ain't a reason to stay
There ain't a reason to stay
No, there ain't a reason to stay-y-ayy, yeah
There ain't a reason to stay

Blood In the Water
03:14
|

All my friends are saying that I'm fine
But they haven't asked in weeks
Every time they just pass by
I know that my friends are doing fine
''Cause I ask them all the time
I swear to God I don't know why
'Cause now I'm sitting here alone
And all my friends are getting stoned
Got no idea how I'm getting home
I'm here alone
Before the floodgates open
They'll come running through
When there's blood in the water
What are you gonna do?
I am locked up by the shadows
And I'm lost in the abyss
When there's blood in the water
Am I left here to sink
Or do I swim?
There's nothing left for me
Do I swim?
In the halls of my despair, I stand alone
With a darkness in my head
I'm a ghost surrendered there
In the halls of my despair, I hear them roam
With a bounty on their prey
This happens every fucking day
'Cause now I'm sitting here alone
And all my friends are getting stoned
Got no idea how I'm getting home
I'm here alone
Before the floodgates open
They'll come running through
When there's blood in the water
What are you gonna do?
I am locked up by the shadows
And I'm lost in the abyss
When there's blood in the water
Am I left here to sink
Or do I swim?
There's nothing left for me
Do I swim?
They must enjoy this
The blood in the water is the scent of my demise
It's kind of funny that they try
They must enjoy this
The blood in the water leads me right towards their eyes
I swear I don't know why I try
I'm treading water alone
Without a lifeline to cling to
No safe harbor to call my home
Before the floodgates open
They'll come running through
When there's blood in the water
What are you gonna do?
I am locked up by the shadows
And I'm lost in the abyss
When there's blood in the water
Do I just fucking sink
Or do I swim?
There's nothing left for me
So do I swim?

Never Change
03:01

You wore a mask, a perfect disguise
But I saw the venom in your eyes
We all could, besides the one you loved
At least, that's what you said you had his trust
And we all warned him of your touch
We knew that you would be too much
'Cause everything you see turns into dust
Finally had enough
I called you a liar, knew from the start that was true
But you wouldn't know anything about that, would you?
You called yourself a bitch, I'm glad you realized finally
Put my friend through all this shit, and you have the guts to let it be
You'll never change
You said you'll wait
But you'll never change
So when your friends ask you why you're through
What do you say?
Talented artist, painted him the villain
But deep inside your guilt is unforgiving
We all knew, from the very start of it
That what you said wasn't from your heart
And we all warned him of your touch
We knew that you would be too much
'Cause everything you see turns into dust
Finally had enough
I called you a liar, knew from the start that was true
But you wouldn't know anything about that, would you?
You called yourself a bitch, I'm glad you realized finally
Put my friend through all this shit, and you have the guts to let it be
You'll never change
You said you'll wait
But you'll never change
Mm-hm
Never change, never change, that's what you do
Lies and lies, upon lies, it's all about you
Never change, never change, that's what you do
Lies and lies, upon lies, it's all about you
So when your friends ask you why you're through
What do you say?

Friends and Strangers
03:16
|
|||
|
I know you remember
The things you said
I believe you meant them
And it goes straight to my head
I'm sorry I cry too much
You wouldn't know why
Wish I could explain myself
But God I've tried
I don't know what to do with you
I wanna be friends but
When we're strangers
I think you'll thank me for it later
I held you close
Hoping you'd crack and leave
Because I can't bear to face the feeling
Of flying without wings
Of trying out new things
Like learning friends can be temporary
I saw all the texts you sent to him
Your partner in crime
And you thought I'd never see them
But you stepped out of line
I don't know how you could be so happy
Making someone so unhappy
This way
(This way you make someone so unhappy)
I don't know what to do with you
I wanna be friends but
When we're strangers
I know you'll thank me for it later
I held you close
Hoping you'd crack and leave
Because I can't bear to face the feeling
Of flying without wings
Of trying out new things
Can we try again?
Can we be friends?
We'll start as if
We've never met
We'll try to mend
If you let
Us become strangers
Once again
In the end
We'll play pretend
If I fall
For you again
In the end
You'll play the friend
And I'll play
The stranger once again
(Like learning friends can be temporary)
I held you close
Hoping you'd crack and leave
Because I can't bear to face the feeling
Of flying without wings
Of trying out new things
Like learning friends can be temporary

How the Curtain Closes
03:22
|
|||
|
I just wanna say
I got your text yesterday
And all the voices in my head
Are telling me to stay away
But when you're gone
It's all gone
And I know I have no chance of surviving
All alone
Well, I think we count as strangers
Give me time and give me space
It's clear that you'd only save yourself
And leave me 'til it's too late
Just a pale ghost standing where I used to be
Another dead end a hundred miles away from me
I'm out of my body, sailing through time
I feel like a curse when I'm out of my mind
I'm out of my body, stealing time
You put your life in the spotlight
Now the curtain's closed
And I know I need to move on
Because the backstage is too damn toxic
For me to get along
I wish that I had known it
From the start
That your role in the friendship
Would be the leading part
So don't put yourself on that pedestal
It can't take your own weight
It's clear that you'd only save yourself
And leave me 'til it's too late
Just a pale ghost standing where I used to be
Another dead end a hundred miles away from me
I'm out of my body, sailing through time
I feel like a curse when I'm out of my mind
I'm out of my body, stealing time
You put your life in the spotlight
Ooh, it was never meant to be like this
Close the book and you lost your page
Make up the next part, and take the stage
They say every story has a happy ending
Just think about the message you're sending
Just a pale ghost standing where I used to be
Another dead end a hundred miles away from me
I'm out of my body, sailing through time
I feel like a curse when I'm out of my mind
I'm out of my body, stealing time
You put your life in the spotlight
I guess this is how the curtain closes now

In My Mind
04:03
|

The version of you that I had in my mind
Has completely faded away
And now the you that I find
Is different in every way
The memories stored in my heart
Held together only by tape
From the time that I tore them apart
I guess I just went too far
But in my mind
There's a thousand things to say to you
And so much more I'd wanna do, oh
And in my mind
You're still the same person I knew years ago
Thinking where did all this time go, oh
(The thoughts of you)
You're like a dictator
But much like a child
Come off your pedestal and enter the wild
If you can patch up the truth
Then can you patch up my heart?
If you could find where I dropped it
That'd be a start
With the memories stored in my brain
Held together only by tape
You can't feel it but you cause pain
Yeah, if only you'd see it
But in my mind
There's a thousand things to say to you
And so much more I'd wanna do, oh
And in my mind
You're still the same person I knew years ago
Thinking where did all this time go, oh
(The thoughts of you)
Frozen in time
Wish you'd understand the signs
Cause when I look back and find
Nothing new, I'm not surprised
And you're frozen in time
Between pages and lines
The real you is not
Who I've got stuck in my mind
(I've gotten stuck in my mind)
Deleting the evidence, erasing your crime
The version of you that I had in my mind
Why do you sit up high and control
What goes into your kingdom of lies
'Cause in my mind
There's a thousand things to say to you
And so much more I'd wanna do, oh
And in my mind
You're still the same person I knew years ago
Thinking where did all this time go, oh
(The thoughts of you)
Frozen in time
Wish you'd understand the signs
Cause when I look back and find
Nothing new, I'm not surprised
And you're frozen in time
Between pages and lines
The real you is not
Who I've got stuck in my mind

They look at you and judge you on your beauty
'Cause what is on the outside is all they see
But I know for sure that there is so much more
So ignore the lies they tell you, be free
Yeah, if god gave you wings, would you use them?
Is it beauty or a chore to just abuse them?
'Cause if you go flying too high, you'll reach the top of the sky
And then we'd all be wishing we'd clipped them
And I've opened up to talking to the plants
'Cause nobody else wants to see me
And if I spread these wings, I still couldn't fly
'Cause I don't believe you'd believe me
But still, I'll spread my wings
The beautiful things
You're not worth making me cry
Yeah still, I'll spread my wings
The violent things
It's worth at least a try
Take what you want, and take what you can
Guess nobody said this was easy
'Cause maybe I've been flying in the wrong direction
All my life, need to think twice
And I've opened up to talking to the plants
'Cause I don't want anybody to see me
And if I spread these wings, I still couldn't fly
'Cause I don't believe you'd believe me
But still, I'll spread my wings
The beautiful things
You're not worth making me cry
Yeah still, I'll spread my wings
The violent things
It's worth at least a try
And I have waited an eternity
To tell you how I feel, but you lied to me
Now I have the future and it's mine to keep
'Cause I know and believe I believe in me
(And still, I'll spread my wings)
(I'll spread my wings, ah-ah-ah)
And still, I'll spread my wings
The beautiful things
You're not worth making me cry
Yeah still, I'll spread my wings
The violent things
It's worth at least a try
And still, I'll spread my wings
The beautiful things
You're not worth making me cry
Yeah still, I'll spread my wings
The violent things
It's worth at least a try
(And still, I'll spread my wings)
(I'll spread my wings)
(And still, I'll spread my wings)
(I'll spread my wings and fly so high)

See Straight Through Me
03:11
|

Who are you seeing, babe I'm dreaming
Out of my body is my life
It's all I know
Been seeing faces in these places
So familiar, I'm a ghost
I drift and roam
I've got a void that I call home
In his reflection, there's a stranger
But I sense I know more than I should about him
Oh, what about him?
Was a connection and I lost it
At some point I must have forgot it
And he's rising up above this
I've tried a thousand times
To get you off my mind
I can't see clear this time
I've tried a thousand times
To get you off my mind
You see straight through me
I can't hi-i-ide, yeah
Say I've degraded, rearrange it
Do you get the same result?
I wouldn't know
I'm just a person, I'm a no-one
I don't recognise my host
I've gotta go
Would you blame me though?
In his reflection, there's a stranger
But I sense I know more than I should about him
Oh, what about him?
Was a connection and I lost it
At some point I must have forgot it
And he's rising up above this
I've tried a thousand times
To get you off my mind
I can't see clear this time
I've tried a thousand times
To get you off my mind
You see straight through me
I can't hi-i-ide
And all of the times I wanted to die
I wanted to never be seen in the light
Again
And all of the times I left him behind
I peered through the cracks and crawled back to my mind
This isn't the end
(And all of the times I wanted to die)
(I wanted to never be seen in the light, yeah)
I've tried a thousand times
To get you off my mind
I can't see clear this time
I've tried a thousand times
To get you off my mind
You see straight through me
I can't hi-i-ide
I can't hide
Come back to me, come back to me
You see, you see straight through me

Ocean sunsets and city views
I've never felt so lost without you
We'd run away under the starry skies
Eyes like glass in the moon's glow
If time won't pass then we can stay afloat
But dawn comes sooner than we could've hoped
Tell me now, if we could do it again
Would you do it the same way?
Or somehow, if you could turn back the clocks
Would you hide and run away?
Play it now, like a movie
Of our nostalgia in sepia
Release me now
I, would do it all again
I, I like a happy end
I, wish I could have you near
To take away this fear
I know I'm a mess, pounding heart in my chest
But if you stick with me, we can make up the rest
And I, would do it all again
We'll write a happy ending
Morning dew and the dawn breaks
You know that I know that you can't stay
And our last night, it burned so bright
And tell me how to lucid dream
So I could feel you next to me
I can barely see
But I know where you should be
Tell me now, if we could do it again
Would you do it the same way?
Or somehow, if you could turn back the clocks
Would you hide and run away?
Play it now, like a movie
Of our nostalgia in sepia
Release me now
I, would do it all again
I, I like a happy end
I, wish I could have you near
To take away this fear
I know I'm a mess, pounding heart in my chest
But if you stick with me, we can make up the rest
And I, would do it all again
We'll write a happy ending
These dreams should haunt me
But they bring me to life
I wish you'd save me
But I feel so alive
Let's run away
Let's run away into the arms of the night
Hold me tight
(Hold me, hold me)
I, would do it all again
I, I like a happy end
I, wish I could have you near
To take away this fear
I know I'm a mess, pounding heart in my chest
But if you stick with me, we can make up the rest
And I, would do it all again
We'll write a happy ending
