Overcome
03:28
|
|||
Start from the beginning,
Take it backwards
Take it back to where it started
Hardwood and echoes,
Little laughter,
Little jokes turned into silence
Oh, and I know
That it hurts,
and it shows
Oh, and I know
That it hurts
and it shows, and it shows
Overcome,
I can always rise above
If it's all but done
Won't you walk it back, walk it back
Take it back to where it started
Cold in the middle
of your arms now
Feeling nothing in your touches
Think of what it felt like
to be friendly
in the grips between your fingers
Overcome,
I can always rise above
If it's all but done
Won't you walk it back, walk it back
Take it back to where it started
(I can overcome)
I don't wanna look back
I don't wanna look back again
I won't look back
I won't look back
Again and again, again and again
Overcome,
I can always rise above
If it's all but done
Won't you walk it back, walk it back
Walk it back, walk it
Run if I wanna
Dance if I wanna
Dream if I wanna
Be who I wanna
Say what I wanna
Scream if I wanna
Kiss who I wanna
Stop when I wanna
Start from the beginning,
Take it backwards,
Take it backwards,
Take it backwards

Ten years
A long time
Been caught under ice
Just waitin' to strike
Dancin'
With my eyes closed
So nobody knows
Where my mind goes
Playin' like I got the gift
Trouble when I use it
The second it leaves my lips
Wonder if it worked at all
Skippin' through a hurricane
Sure I'll stick the landing
I'm trying to keep the fear at bay,
But you know it's only getting
Bigger
Smilin' on the outside makes it
Stronger
Fakin' it for a little while
Longer
Not sure who I'll be tomorrow
I'm close but it feels like it's the hardest part
Waitin'
I'm patient
Been speaking through dreams
They're swimmin' to me
Dancin'
With my eyes closed
So I can be free
Moments of peace
Feeling like I've got the ace
Burnin' in my pocket
Can't show it on my face
Actin' cool through it all
Pushin' through the day to day
Workin' hard to keep it
An effortless charade
But you know it's only getting
Bigger
Smilin' on the outside makes it
Stronger
Fakin' it for a little while
Longer
Not sure who I'll be tomorrow
I'm close but it feels like it's the hardest part
Bigger
Smilin' on the outside makes it
Stronger
Fakin' it for a little while
Longer
Not sure who I'll be tomorrow
I'm close but it,
I'm close but it's
Bigger
Smilin' on the outside makes it
Stronger
Fakin' it for a little while
Longer
Not sure who I'll be tomorrow
I'm close but it feels like it's the hardest part

Searching
03:47
|
|||
You said just look good and sing
That's what they're payin' for, not what you think
And maybe after a while
I'll let you see me crackin' a smile
Hell, I can make some hips swing,
Hips swing,
Well, I can make a bird sing, bird sing
With a snap of my fingers we could move it right along
Cause it don't make me feel a thing
Feel a thing, feel a thing,
Feel a thing, feel a thing
Shout out loud,
Shake it out,
Holding on for somethin' more
Feel the sound
Echo out
Wonder if there's somethin' more
Songs that don't bite back, everyone likes that
I can't figure it out
Try, try, try to make you feel
Like I know what I'm searching for
You're what they came here to see
So turn the charm on,
Don't think, just be
Just keep collected and cool,
Don't be the first one breakin' the rules
Hell I can make the stars shine,
Stars shine,
Well, I can turn the floor to fire, on fire
You're snapping your fingers, you can move it right along
Cause it don't make me feel a thing
Shout out loud,
Shake it out,
Holding on for somethin' more
Feel the sound
Echo out
Wonder if there's somethin' more
Songs that don't bite back, everyone likes that
I can't figure it out
Try, try, try to make you feel
Like I know what I'm searching for
Feel a thing, feel a thing...
Shout out loud,
Shake it out,
Holding on for somethin' more
Feel the sound
Echo out
Wonder if there's somethin' more
Songs that don't bite back, everyone likes that
I can't figure it out
Try, try, try to make you feel
Like I know what I'm searching for
You said just look good and sing

Shake Me Awake
03:51
|
|||
So I try and drag my feet out of the sand,
What I want is just to get out from this moment
But I'm worried it won't ever come again, again, again
Everything happens at the same time, don't it?
Feels like I can't get ahead
Chippin' away at the same stone, pushin'
Wonder when I'll catch my breath
Well I just need a moment
To heal
I'm caught inside a memory,
I feel,
Won't somebody shake me
Awake?
I just want you to show me
The way, the way, the way
Well I'm just hopin' I can dodge those bullets
The target is fixed to my back,
I've gotta wrestle with the same damn villains
It's gettin' hard to keep track
Well I just need a moment
To heal
I'm caught inside a memory,
I feel,
Won't somebody shake me
Awake?
I just want you to show me
The way, the way, the way
(The way, the way, the way)
Tell me when did things get so far out of hand,
So I'll close my eyes and breathe into this moment,
But I'm worried it won't ever come again
Well I just need a moment
To heal
I'm caught inside a memory,
I feel,
Won't somebody shake me
Awake?
I just want you to show me
Well I just need a moment
To heal
I'm caught inside a memory,
I feel,
Won't somebody shake me
Awake?
I just want you to show me
The way, the way, the way

Watching Waiting
03:57
|
|||
I'm dreaming,
I came here on my own
I'm lookin'
I need someone
Your eyes
Keep meetin' up with mine
Come here
I'm watching, waiting, watching, waiting
I can't go starting something
I can't see through to this
I just won't take this further,
Oh no
Baby there's no you and me,
An ocean in between
Ask but you already know
It's just a square peg in a round hole
Now that you really see me,
Why do things feel so wrong-ly?
Wish that I could clear my head
Wrong place, wrong time
Things are just better this way
Dancin',
Bodies getting close,
Movin',
Your hips turnin'
Lights on
But we linger in the room
It's time to go
This night's really ending too soon
Why am I always lookin’
for a new flame to hold?
I just won't take this further
Oh no
Baby there's no you and me,
An ocean in between
Ask but you already know
It's just a square peg in a round hole
Now that you really see me,
Why do things feel so wrong-ly?
Wish that I could clear my head
Wrong place, wrong time
Things are just better this way
(Better this way)
I can't go starting something
I can't see through to this
I just won't take this further
Baby there's no you and me,
An ocean in between
Ask but you already know
It's just a square peg in a round hole
Now that you really see me,
Why do things feel so wrong-ly?
Wish that I could clear my head
Wrong place, wrong time
Things are just better this way
(Better this way)

Nowhere
04:19
|

Where did you go?
Are you still with me?
Searching for someone
Lost in the evening
I wish
That I knew
How I could
Find you
I know that you're there,
I heard you one evening
Well then, what do you think?
Does this have an ending?
Always in the rearview
Well, what happened to you?
If patience is key, then let me go
If you're thinking of me, I don't want to know
Something went wrong a long time ago
I'm sitting in nowhere,
I'm waiting for someone
If you broke a mirror,
I'm your reflection
Took all the pieces
Claiming perfection
Yet I still worry
Feelings are blurry
Know that I love you,
This isn't easy
Well then, what do you think?
Does this have an ending?
Always in the rearview
Well, what happened to you?
If patience is key, then let me go
If you're thinking of me, I don't want to know
Something went wrong a long time ago
I'm sitting in nowhere,
I'm waiting for someone
Where did you go?
I'm lookin
Well then, what do you think?
Does this have an ending?
Always in the rearview
Well, what happened to you?
If patience is key, then let me go
If you're thinking of me, I don't want to know
Something went wrong a long time ago
I'm sitting in nowhere,
I'm waiting, I'm waiting
If patience is key, then let me go
If you're thinking of me, I don't want to know
Something went wrong a long time ago
I'm sitting in nowhere,
I'm waiting for someone

Tell Me
03:48
|
|||
These days
Seems that I can’t please you
Twisted
Pretzel-like to reach you
Do you feel me pushing you over?
Don’t you love me as I grow older?
Tell me where did I go wrong?
You're screaming when I hold my tongue
Do I have to sing this song?
Baby, am I ever done?
Lately
I'm worried you won’t touch me
I’ll undress
I dare you not to watch me
Don’t you see me waiting for you?
Don’t you know me as one to control you?
Tell me where did I go wrong?
You're screaming when I hold my tongue
Do I have to sing this song?
Baby, am I ever done?
Tell me where did I go wrong?

Too Late
03:42
|
|||
Dappled sunlight, I barely feel awake
Count the minutes of all the time I waste
I scream at the top of my lungs
But I'm tired of a life on the run
In fear of what I could have done
Again, again
And I feel like I'm chasing the sun
And I hope when it's all said and done
This voice, I'm pushing it out of my head,
We're taking it over
The clock is ticking, I'm always there too late
Lose a second, it's always my mistake
I scream at the top of my lungs
But I'm tired of a life on the run
In fear of what I could have done
Again, again
And I feel like I'm chasing the sun
And I hope when it's all said and done
This voice, I'm pushing it out of my head,
We're taking it over
(Time it's taking, I won't make it
Minutes racing, find my pacing)
I couldn't get away
But every single day
I couldn't get away
But every single day
I feel like I'm chasing the sun
And I hope when it's all said and done
This voice I'm pushing it out of my head
And I scream at the top of my lungs
But I'm tired of a life on the run
In fear of what I could have done
Instead, again
It’s slow, but I’m letting it come
This fear is something I'll overcome
In time, and in my wildest dreams
I'm taking it over

Stranger
03:36
|
|||
Talk in my sleep, at night, it’s late
Stories keeping you awake
Reveal my secrets, seal my fate
Close to your chest, keeping me away
And I wanna crawl inside
All the corners of your mind
But you’d never let me in
You know
I’m not what you’re running from
It’s hard just to get to know
The stranger
Lying next to me at night
In the same bed, whatever it takes
Speaking in codes you’ve got your way
Could you let me in, take me through your day?
Lead me through, then complicate
Unravel yourself, let me feel the weight
I’m not what you’re running from
It’s hard just to get to know
The stranger
Lying next to me, lying next to me at night
You don’t have to be a stranger
Try your best you can’t escape her
Confrontational eraser
You don’t have to be a stranger, stranger
Running out of time
Talk in my sleep, at night it's late
Stories keeping you awake
Reveal my secrets, seal my fate,
Close to your chest, keeping me away
(Stranger)
You don't have to be a stranger
Try your best you can't escape her (escape her)
Confrontational eraser (eraser)
‘Cause I don't want to
Run forever
Chasing after
Something better
I don't want to
Run forever
Chasing after
You don't have to be a stranger

On and On
03:26

Feeling lost
Patience ain't on my mind
You call me up,
Tell me you're out of time
Oh, oh, oh, of course it's this again
Oh, oh, oh, do you remember when
Oh, oh, oh, you'd carry me to bed?
Same time tomorrow?
On and on
Let it out
A whisper and then a shout
You and I
Doing the same dance, time after time
Oh, oh, oh, of course it's this again
Oh, oh, oh, do you remember when
Oh, oh, oh, kiss and make up again
We're losing touch
Stuck in bluffs,
It's on and on
Love is tough,
I messed up
Is that enough?
Never did think it'd end this way
Searching for every word to say
Same time tomorrow?
On and on
Is that enough?
On and on
Is that enough?
On and on
Oh, oh, oh, remind myself again
Oh, oh, oh, that I can't pretend
Oh, oh, oh, it's alright in the end
We're losing touch
Stuck in bluffs,
It's on and on
Love is tough,
We both messed up
Is that enough?
Never did think it'd end this way
Searching for every word to say
Never did think it'd end this way,
Searching for every word to say
Same time tomorrow?
On and on
Same time tomorrow?
Is that enough?
