For a Moment

You can lose track from the moment
You can find more than you seek
You can go back for a moment
You can let it all run free
When there’s no time to be different
And no lie to repeat
You can run back, if you listen
You can lose track from the beat
This is all that you got
This is all that you got
When I got back with an omen
You’d given up on me
And you stopped time for a moment
To be everything you dream
Don’t start, babe I got you
You’re the only sound I see
When I run back to forget you
I run back to the beat
You can go back
Don’t let anything go awry
(Aah)
Yeah well it hurts like
Hurts like you got something in mind
(Aah)
Ooh, you can run back
You can get it right, you can turn back time
(Aah)
Yeah this is all that
All that you can say with your eyes
(Ah)
This is all that you got
This is all that you got

I don’t wanna go back
Trust me like you did before
I’ve been digging mines up
Never condemned the door
Back when all the dreams
I thought that had something to say
Soft-spoken words
I heard a yell in my head
Favourite something
I don’t think I can recall
I’m missing days
Or months or decades after all
Painted over this wall
With every color I had
Nearly took it down
It’s buried deep underground
Closer
Try to remember
When I come around taking you down
Stroke back
Head underwater
When I come around taking you down
Years had passed by
Since I’d heard that ticking sound
Triggers as simple as impossible to count
You said something I don’t understand
Here’s an old friend
I knew that we would meet again
He’s back
You speak like electricity
Nestle in my mind
Grow roses inside of me
Hate the way my skin just
Crumbles and breaks from within
I’m an older man
Than I’ve ever been
Closer
Try to remember
When I come around taking you down
Stroke back
Head underwater
When I come around taking you down
Close
Don’t try to do better
When I come around taking you down
Stroke back
Harder than ever
When I come around taking you down
I could never go back
Taking you higher
And I could never go back
Taking you down
Oh, I could never go back
Taking you higher
I could never go back
Taking you down
Oh, I could never go back
Taking you higher
And I could never go back
Taking you down
No, I could never go back
Taking you higher
I could never go back
Taking you down

Sundown
03:30

I hate it but I don’t care
I find a way to be there
I tried running away
But along you’d escape
As a thought in my mind
Thought you’d wanna know now
A song is all I know how
It’s a shot in the dark
With a pen as a gun
And a dithering arm
All that I want
Lights up in you
Everybody goes
And I begin as someone new
Dry in the rain
Hopeful in vain
Everything I hold
Now begins to break again
Up is still a let-down
Hoped it would’ve come ‘round
At the thought of our minds
And our hearts and our souls
And our bodies aligned
With dawn another sundown
A thought is all I’ve got now
And the hurt of a man
Who’s awaken again
By the break of his mind
All that you can
Lights up in me
Taken with the vision
I surrender all I see
Heart of a child
Violent and wild
Flashes of a future
That I made up into mine
All that I want
Burns up in you
Everybody goes
And I pretend you need me too
I’ll fight it away
Forget your name
I just wanna sleep tonight
Without you in my head

Homesick
03:37

She never gets homesick
Home is the sight of light
Scraping off a sunset
And painting up a sunrise
I know
Yes I know that we’ll be alright
(Yes I know it that we’ll be alright)
I know
We can take anything in our stride
Running up the river
Strained by the thought of us
Breathing underwater
Carried by the thought of lust
Whatever we can feel now
We can feel the opposite
And whatever we can talk down
We can talk it up again
I know
Yes I know I may need a friend
(Yes I know it I may need a friend)
I know
One I can never truly understand
(Aah, aah)
(Aah, aah)
We’re home in every other way
I’ve got thoughts I never got to say
Baby, we’re home in every other way
Alright
I’ve got thoughts I never got to say
Yeah, yeah
Home in every other way
Alright
Thoughts I never got to say
Alright

Had you known this all this time
Perfect stranger in my mind
Quiet insecurities, yeah
Guesses get the best of me, uh
How does it feel to know
Roses begin to grow
Holding your weight in gold
As it appears to glow
Heart to the night
Disco light
Everything’s alright
Hard to believe
I can breathe
Caught when I can be freed
Heart to the ground
Faded sound
Would I let you down?
When I put this light out
Tryina play this night out
Chances in a lonely world
Left alone and undisturbed
Tried and tested fantasies, yeah
Never bold enough to be
Heart to the night
Everything’s alright
Hard to believe
That I can be freed
That I can be freed
Heart to the night
Disco light
Everything’s alright
Hard to believe
I can breathe
Caught when I can be freed
Heart to the ground
Faded sound
Would I let you down?
When I put this light out
Tryina play this night out
Heart to the night
Disco light
Everything’s alright
Hard to believe
I can breathe
Caught when I can be freed
Heart to the ground
Faded sound
Would I let you down?
When I put this light out
Tryina play this night out

June, we haven’t met in a long time
Is it true that you feel alone?
I wake to the sight of the ceiling every night
June, I’m going blind cause I miss your eyes
June, I’ve felt no feeling a long time
Yes it’s true I do feel alone
Talking to myself, feeding every line
June, I’m going mad cause I miss your mind
June, we haven’t met in a long time
Easier it was when we were younger
Feel how fast it’s beating all the time
June, I miss your steady heart on mine

Go, don’t wait on me
I’ll catch up later on
And know
I’ve heard enough to feel you
It’s hard enough to know
When I catch you running
There’s nothing that I wish I’d known
And let you get away
I want nothing less and nothing more
We’ve had this talk before
Go on
I don’t believe you dear
And run
There’s no place that I wish I’d gone
And let you get away
I want nothing less and nothing more
(I don’t believe you dear)
(Go on)
All the senses that you’re waking
All the wishes that you take form in
I keep your message in my breast pocket
Close to the heart

Selfish
03:31
|
|||
|
I’ll look better tomorrow
By the time I’m recognizing your shadow
Holding me tight
All that we’re tearing asunder
We can try
Can we ever recover?
We’ve been here all night
Is it wrong, is it selfish, is it mean
If I want to be everything you need?
Oh, I must’ve felt it in your eyes
You would lust for someone else’s over mine
Over mine
I wanna know what you're thinking
You can tell me babe
You know how I listen
And remember the little things
Yeah, this is complicated news
I’m sure you know that I’m a bit confused
It’s hanging all around
Is it wrong, is it selfish, is it mean
If I want to be everything you need?
Oh, I must’ve felt it in your eyes
You would lust for someone else’s over mine
Over mine

Bittersweet
Who said it’s getting easier?
I still heal
Much harder than I hurt
Do you not dread
The cold walk on the way home?
On your own
By now it’s open war
(Aah)
(Aah)
Even light
To get out
Feel this water
All the way across my back
She gets to play it up
And feel glorious
And I to care
As I let her go in my place
(Aah)
(Aah)
It’s loneliest at night
And I’m so sorry I’ve been listening
My light is on and I can’t sleep it off
There’s fight in this lie that I’ve been living in
And I’ve started to believe it
But I don’t have very long

I don’t wanna lie
In truth I think I know you
I’m not making sense
But I guess I’m not supposed to
Don’t look down
Your eyes say all that mine do
Everything is simple now
I’m not waiting on the line I’m on
I can’t sleep on my own
I’m dreaming it all up now
I can’t wake it away
By the time I write you in
I’m the loneliest I’ve been
I might’ve seen it before
It’s a place that I’ve forgotten
I’m trying my best
I don’t know what I’m doing half the time
I’m losing myself to you
And all of my senses too
Come over
I can’t wait any longer
Thinking about it every day
I can’t wake it away
By the time I write you in
I’m the loneliest I’ve been
Your eyes
Your arms
Baby I can’t sleep on my own
I’m dreaming it all up now
I can’t wake it away
By the time I write you in
I’m the loneliest I’ve been
Oh, I’m the loneliest I’ve been
I’m the loneliest I’ve been
