I could see a holiday, when we both woke up today I could see a common dream, a pattern of what used to be I can see a summer daze, shimmering across your face Swirl inside you silently, wishing I could always be Try to tame the quiet beast, tiny spiders following Every symbol to repeat, ending in a mystery Remind me of a better day, what we did and couldn’t say A little light into your eyes, magical it talks to me To see the light, against your eyes, I drink you in, air becomes thin, floating away, I wish I could be, eternally, follow you.... In the ray of my defeat, silver slivers following With every hour to repeat, the children of what used to be I could see a holiday, when we both woke up today Swirl inside you silently, wishing I could always be To see the light, against your eyes, I drink you in, air becomes thin, floating away, I wish I could be, eternally, follow you.... To touch the sun, glide down your face, I drink you in, air becomes thin, spinning away, in between days, I close my eyes, follow you...

Secrets 02:56
Are you happy? I know you shiver like a stone I know you can’t be When you have nowhere else to go And your father came to find you here I covered tracks to help you And I don’t think about you, anymore I don’t think about you, anymore Maybe you’re working In a city far away Maybe you’re satisfied With how boring life stayed You told me you were gonna be Really big or something You told me that it’s everyone else Who gets disappointed Secrets of our lives Secrets of our lives Secrets of our lives

Sometimes, all I have is time, I often wonder you You are not so, far away it seems, to be so close to me It seems like, I’ve been ready for a while, I often think of What is that feeling, I think I’m following lines What is that feeling, I think I get lost I know you can try to change my mind, I know to let it happen to us now What if I, wanted more, what if I wanted less And everything, I stir into my tea, comes back to conquer me To learn a lot, when happiness is free, I won’t deny it What is that feeling, I think I’m following lines What is that feeling, I think I get lost I know you can try to change my mind, I know to let it happen to us now What if I, wanted more, what if I wanted less

Diary Land 05:41
In the hardest of hearts, I was lost Making sure you knew all I knew of I am spinning you around in my head, I am, spinning you around in my head Loving you like I do, heaven hold on Days go by and I wonder how But nothing could change me now, nothing could change me now Feel every life, combine, between us now, one sign Days go by and I wonder how But nothing could change me now, nothing could change me now Things will move, as we have somehow But nothing could change me now, nothing could change me now... And maybe one day we could be friends again Feel every life, combine, between us now, one sign A painting we are, in comfort of my thoughts, I hope for love and when I am old, but my feelings will grow for you, the bond

Actual Pain 04:19
You came out of your cave, like a wolf in the morning I was led to the stream, without comfortable warning I eat from the grass, that you constantly feed me I know I would, if I could feel less When kindness is wrong, I just wanted to show you If something I’ve done, is something I should do Actual pain, something I wasted Actual pain, not sure that I’ve felt it My mind holds out, a slice of my heart A sign in time, that’s all I can shake off, shake off

Do you remember that your mother was a pearl? She was a boy’s dreamer, weightless in all her awe But you were war like a silvery missile Ready to fly away And I will lay my eyes on you I will lay my eyes on you I was concerned, with your happiness in turn fluid like silk water, I used to think it was a curse maybe one day, we will meet again unknown of all things we once knew and I will lay eyes on you I will lay my eyes on you

Arrows 04:00
So easy to say she was so small like a horse, she opened her mouth up In love, she behaved like a child Do I have to take off all your ugly clothes You could find someone more beautiful Why can you find someone you understand? I’m not even your type, why’d you say that? held together by a paper wire Only because of you, we pretend Like a rough ride through melancholy walls I don’t mind, it’s a matter of time, the arrows fly, and it’s all gone I dug you out, just like an animal I don’t care, so I keep you alive, below ground, and I’m homebound I dug you out, just like an animal You could find someone more beautiful, You could find someone you understand

On The Quiet 04:08
I don’t care where the wind blows now, bring in what I could do without If I make a mistake, nothing major I don’t mind if the morning comes, change again when the day is young Staying the same, nothing happens You hide it so well, I can’t tell All the symbols inside, I can’t tell Help me out if I need to know, some things grow to be difficult, I’m too scared to say what’ll happen Nothing left to complain about, emptiness by a muted sound Admiration to last forever You hide it so well, you hide it so well, you hide it so well, I can’t tell All the symbols inside, I can’t tell

Around You 03:01
My baby was a bird, he was undiscovered, until the morning after Spending every day by clouds, he was a little bit hazy, that’s all he could be I walk out, I follow you ‘Cause I know all the things you do, and every time I look at you’re your always looking the same I wanted you to change, but every time I look at you, you’re only acting I wanted this to be, your turn for breaking, falling and turning But funny how it is, when nothing changes I wanted you to change, but every time I look at you, you’re only acting I wanted this to be, your turn for breaking, falling and turning

Karen 04:39
I don’t mind where we go, meet your friends at the show, I don’t care, what we do, walk the streets, being cool Wear a ring, don’t mean a thing to me Thinking of you all the time is easy I wait around, ‘cause any time is good Stare at your face when you are with me, cause it’s easy But you don’t wanna be that way You don’t wanna be that way When we go out, I pull my hair up high The apples of my cheeks were summer tinted I pull you in, with everything I know Be understood and give into me is treason But you don’t wanna be that way You don’t wanna be that way

When they followed you, there was so much light Little did you know, the love of every kind Why would they lie for fun, why would they lie to you? I hope you know, it was always something You say there is a fence that we cannot cross This is the time is the end, like where we came from Why would they lie for fun, why would they lie to you? I hope you know, it was always something
