Birds & Planes
03:55
|

I wish I could fly away
And then you could come back down
Forever to turn the page
I saw all the sparks today
Who can rest if I'm alight?
I wish I could fly away
And live with the birds and planes
No match for the girl whose face
Is made up of tiny stars
Who can rest if I'm alight?

Out Here
03:46
|
|||
Now the street is calming down
But the street will never rest
And the arrow points to you
You're too much
The strangers you knew
Couldn't ever have wanted you
I told you so
I have to push them away
I wanna see you comin' in
Wanna see you on the run
When the end is so new
The rise and fall
For 23 years
I'm the one that wanted you
I kept you close
And now I can prove it
Out here
We can never go
Out here
It's for real and we don't make it up
Now I feel it wearing off
But the feeling will never rest
So what did you have to lose?
It's the way you thought
According to you
They will never chase you down
They're way too slow
You say that you're stronger
I wanna see you comin' in
Wanna see you on the run
When the end is so new
The rise and fall
For 23 years
I'm the one that wanted you
I kept you close
And now I can prove it
Out here
We can never go
Out here
It's for real and we don't make it up
If we go back now
It's a long way down
It's a long way down
It's a long way
If you doubt me now
It's a long way down
It's a long way down
It's a long way
x 2
I wanna see you comin' in
Wanna see you on the run
When the end is so new
The rise and fall
For 23 years
I'm the one that wanted you
I kept you close
And now I can prove it
Out here
We can never go
Out here
It's for real and we don't make it up

Three
03:23
|
|||
I want to feel connected
Lock the doors
I'm staying out
Carefully selective
Lucky one
Or send it back
Lead me in the dark
Take me through
Just the way you are
Somewhere new
Want to be defensive
Slash and burn
It's nothing else
Build it up, direct it
Help me out
I'm panicking
Lead me in the dark
Take me through
Just the way you are
Somewhere new
Soon I'll be alone
And I'll stay under water
Soon I'll be alone
Don't say where you are
I can be alone
And I'll feel much better
Can't get along
What makes you think that I can?
Call you when I get there
Left a note
For everyone
Feel a bit rejected
Help me out
I'm panicking
Lead me in the dark
Take me through
Just the way you are
Somewhere new

Saved
03:52
|

Screwed up and broke down
I never wanted to
Sat still and lost it all
I never left my chair
They're just the same walls
And things around us change
I'm saying what's gotta be said
And there's no other way
Cold feet, I don't wanna be scared
I can only save myself
I thought the new you
Could fix the other one
Not gonna wait for proof
When you're under the gun
They're just the same rules
And things around us change
I'm saying what's gotta be said
And there's no other way
Cold feet, I don't wanna be scared
I can only save myself
Moving unsteadily
We never aim to please
It's not so challenging
With everything you need
You look way down
No color in your face
Sit down and talk it out
Until we feel the sting
They're just the same rules
And things around us change

Comfort Devil
05:20
|
|||
What's to compare when you're close to me?
Though you never were
It's the land sliding down and the vapors rolling off
Though I knew you were
The last living corner as we search for sleep
Goodnight
When it wears off
You grab the hand in the smoke
When you feel soft
You grab the hand in the smoke
And when you fall asleep in bed
I know the comfort fills your head
Watch out, the mattress is a jail
And now you dream of other beds
It's all in good humor when we laugh at how they talk
You know they're not from here
We can tell them where to go, we can tell them how to walk
They don't pretend
Let them know it's time to go
When the sun is coming up
When it wears off
You grab the hand in the smoke
When you feel soft
You grab the hand in the smoke
And when you fall asleep in bed
I know the comfort fills your head
Watch out, the mattress is a jail
And now you dream of other beds
The end of the city is the end that we fought
You never wrote me back
You enter the city and you're never coming out

Low Rumble
03:33
|
|||
This weight
It's mine alone
Heavy
Sliding down
x 2
Waiting
Don't bother waiting
This way
It's mine alone
No escape
From what I found
This weight
It's mine alone
Like the waves
Sink, swim, or drown
Waiting
Don't bother waiting

She Did
04:59
|
|||
She was somewhere else
A thousand miles away
All by herself
Waiting there for me
I'm not awake
I don't want to go
I don't want to be here
Things never change
They don't have to stay the same
It's what she did to be fair
It's what she did to be there
She found a place
With walls that never stay
All to herself
Holding dreams at bay
I'm not afraid
I won't let you go
But I don't believe you
Things never change
But they don't have to stay the same
It's what she did to be fair
It's what she did to be there
Her sister ran away
To start a family
It's out of sequence
How I remember it
I saw the lake of red
And you were there with me
It's not a memory
If we don't remember when
It's just another way
To get back at me
It's not a secret
And no I won't forget
Her sister ran away
To start a family
It's out of sequence
How I remember it
It's just another way
To get back at me
It's not a secret
And no I won't forget

Slow Burn
05:16
|
|||
Don't stop if you run away
No turning back, no other fate
You want to laugh, want to celebrate
You ruined that, faithfully
Move along I will hesitate
Fahrenheit, you're in centigrade
I did the math, I don't want to play
You wouldn't ask, truthfully
Let's get it out of the way
The long, slow burn
Don't wait for a rainy day
You're lucky now, but that'll change
I'm burning out, I don't want to fade
It couldn't last, truthfully
Move along I will hesitate
Fahrenheit, you're in centigrade
I did the math, I don't want to play
Remember that, remember that.
Let's get it out of the way
The long, slow burn

Light Sleeper
03:47
|
|||
You're always at my door
Trying to hurry me
You're always on the floor
Trying to worry me
Now we're going to crash
Promise not to laugh
If I find the time
Would it change your mind?
You're sitting in the street
Trying to save the world
You always give me grief
For trusting anyone
Now we're going to crash
Promise not to laugh
If I find the time
Would it change your mind?
It's what you'll never find
In anyone
Go back to sleep
It's never done
Now we're going to crash
Promise not to laugh
If I find the time
Would it change your mind?
(Don't wake me, I'm asleep)
You're always at my door
Trying to hurry me
You're always on the floor
And it's embarrassing

Got This Thing
04:09
|
|||
Through the faded screen and the tinted glass
Will you deliver? Would you die for that?
What you never see, what you never ask
You want to disappear, a wanderlust
You and me, we've got this thing
and we're never gonna give it away
When the pieces fit, I wanna fold in half
Make the straightest line
Take the straightest path
With a glove that fits on a broken hand
There's no way for me to hang on
You and me, we've got this thing
and we're never gonna give it away
I feel fine eventually
But then I wake so differently
I feel fine eventually
But then I wake 'em up

Wolves
04:56
|
|||
I'm old enough
To let you go
Say it's not for me
I'm moving on
Cause what I found
Is more of the same
I'm old enough
To let you go
But you just won't leave
I'm moving on
Cause what I found
Is more of the same
Keep it down
They should never hear you move around
It's too late
No motive
Nothing but a pretty face
Looking away
We're so close to everything
But we don't know it's just a dream
Silver and gold
Wherever it goes
It's always too far
Stains on the wall
You scrub them all
But they just don't fade
Silver and gold
Wherever it goes
It's always too far
Painting the walls
To cover up
But it's just too late
Keep it down
They should never hear you move around
It's too late
No motive
Nothing but a pretty face
Looking away
We're so close to everything
But we don't know it's just a dream

Long Walk
04:06
|
|||
You wanna get away
You need to pace it out
To go a long way
The strangest dream
You'll never walk away
No matter what you're thinking
I won't be here anymore
No you can't leave
You learn too fast
But you don't know where you're going
The strangest dream
You'll never walk away
Maybe you're feeling sorry
I won't be here anymore
I've decided to wait
Giving up seems so hard
Will you be there waiting for me?
You've just gotta get on top
Cause the other ones drop
You're losing your feet
It just won't stop
You can only get so far
Give it all you've got
The feeling is changing
It's not what you thought
