moves

i wanna know you
more than you know yourself
so next time, you lie
i can easily accept
i wanna be more than
what i am to you now
don't worry, i'll never tell you how
baby, i'll watch your moves
i'll watch what you can prove
it's as if i'm your only friend
baby, i'll watch your moves
i'll watch what you can prove
i'll be your only friend
i can complete you, you know
because now, you're only half
and i can make you whole
i will sing to you at night
and i'll hold on to you so tight
baby, i'll watch your moves
i'll watch what you can prove
it's as if i'm your only friend
baby, i'll watch your moves
i'll watch what you can prove
i'll be your only friend

back me up
02:53
|
|||
|
you gotta back me up, baby
they've all deserted me
they've given up on me
it was easy as one, two, three
they didn't really know me
not in the first place
all they got to see was
my fake smiley face
when they asked me questions
i just played it all too safe
safe
you're wondering the same
if i ever told you lies
truth is i don't know
you're the only thing that is mine
they're putting me down
to put someone else at the top
they'll be shooting me down
as soon as i could drop
as soon as i could drop
as soon as i could drop
drop
you gotta back me up, baby
they've all deserted me
they've given up on me
it was easy as one, two, three
they didn't really know me
not in the first place
all they got to see was
my fake smiley face
when they asked me questions
i just played it all too safe
safe

halos
03:52
|
|||
|
just another kind of travelling
riding through halos
using lots of pseudonyms
and catching the rainfall
our hands just drying
it's not time to iron things out
our mouths just lying
it's not time to say i'm sorry
but tomorrow, i'll be gone again
to the deep blue ocean
so we better talk now
so i could get some sleep
you're never out to get me
because you never could
you're never out to chase me
because i chase you

silver tongue
04:05
|
|||
|
he has got a silver tongue
pushes her all over around
she's buying an iron lung
he's wearing a golden crown
she's been talking for the longest time
brilliant skies to whitest house
she's a little worried
she's a little spent
he's holding her hostage
he's holding her hand
now he's asking for marriage
she's not ready yet
he's making a big fuss
about the glorious bent
of the shape of her forehead
and the tape on the couch
it pricks her little mouth
and she's stopping now
frozen before a shout
her tongue is solid
her friends are wondering why
she used to be so torrid
now she's dull as white
and i tell them the truth
the truth about having you
the lies to simmer down
and the thing we really had
all the scars on my eyelids
the termites in my ear
it keeps me to my places
and my head always in fear

you know
06:13
|
|||
|
i can hear the words you say
i'm not feeling all that brave
so forgive me if i stay
in this room where i'm safe
leaving seems like a dream
cannot push it to extremes
i just curl up beside him
while outside i hear you scream
i long to be with you
you know
you know
i yearn to go with you
you know
you know
i need to be with you
you know
you know
i want to be with you
you know
you know
see, i have tried to confess
but he's been drinking less and less
for every reason i should run
is a bullet to his gun
i guess, i can always just make haste
but when he wakes, he'll set ablaze
to every corner of my mind
he'll just leave me deaf, dumb and blind
i long to be with you
you know
you know
i yearn to go with you
you know
you know
i yearn to go with you
you know
you know
i long to be with you
you know
you know
don't you worry, i understand
you have to go, you're just a man
you have to stick to your original plan
you can't just burn under the sun
so don't you think you've ruined me
i'm made of metal and debris
i will stand here for eternity
i will fade away into the sea
i long to be with you
just go
just go
i yearn to go with you
so long
so long
i need to be with you
you know
you know
i want to be with you
you know
you know
i long to be with you
you know
you know
i yearn to go with you
you know
you know
i need to be with you
you know
you know
i want to be with you
you know
you know

brick wall
04:38
|
|||
|
i hear your sorrow
i hear your pain
like there's no tomorrow
i'm dead at my place
but it's like i am stopped
before i can say a thing
i'm doomed to hate you
and i don't want to
there's this brick wall i've been trying to demolish
behind your back, it's behind his back
there's this knife i'm scraping with
forgive me
forgive me if there are scars on your back
lashing out, i think i'm acting out
pushing the envelope like a letter
like a secret being revealed
like a death threat being read aloud
to you, to you
there's this brick wall i've been trying to demolish
behind your back, it's behind your back
there's this knife i'm scraping with
forgive me if there are scars on your back
lashing out, i think i'm acting out
pushing the envelope like a letter
like a secret being revealed
like a death threat being read aloud
to you, to you

take it to the stars
04:07
|
|||
|
i've woken up
from the sound of the fire
there's an alarm
calling my name in the distance
take it to the stars
you can't go very far
i'm alone in the dark
we'll be worlds apart
and you
i'll try to avoid you in the future
until i'm brave enough to hear what you're saying
take it to the stars
you can't go very far
i'm alone in the dark
we'll be worlds apart
i've heard it all
the reasons you've been giving
not an excuse
to owe everyone a little something
breaking your word
while not stopping for one breath
you've lost me before
now nothing's for the taking
take it to the stars
you can't go very far
i'm alone in the dark
we'll be worlds apart
take it to the stars
take all my scars
i can go very far
away

does it hurt
03:30
|
|||
|
i went to your house
and no one was there
i knocked on the door
and nobody answered
i peered at the window
to see inside
but really, i came
to realize
that our love
has ended still
and i am left in a spinning wheel
tell me how the truth works, does it hurt
i went to the bar
and no one was there
just bottles and glasses
no drunken voices
i yelled at the top of my lungs
i heard an echo
no sad bartender
no one to console me
no one to tell me
tell me how the truth works, does it hurt before or after it sets you free

time changes
03:23
|
|||
|
i know to wait
for you to stay
it's wrong
to pray
for everything to be the same
it's not the way time changes everything everyday
it's not the way time changes everyone
i know you'd break
promises you've made
they sounded too precious
and now they're stained
it's not the way time changes everything everyday
it's not the way time changes everyone

circle again
02:52
|
|||
|
what is there to life
i hear you ask beneath the lights
there's a question on your face
and debate in your eyes
and i know it's time to let you go
i feel that we've reached the end of the field
and it's time to circle again
circle again
will you hold my hand
i feel wounded in the sand
let me open your goodbyes
take away the pain tonight
and i know it's time to let you go
i feel that we've reached the end of the field
and it's time to circle again
circle again
