Better
04:10

I was on fire before I met you
spinning and falling through the night
you were in wires
twisting inside you
fading before you hit the sky
don't make a move
stay where I left you
I swear I'll make it back tonight
all of your friends say that you're crazy
say that there's no room left for flight
you're coming back
becoming better
I'm getting better all the time
and all of these lives mean nothing to me
if I can't have you by my side
we were like kids
turning in circles
now that I got you on my mind
all I could give
all I could show you
if it would keep you here inside
would it be wrong to stay here beside you
holding the world inside these hands?
would it be wrong to say that I need you?
I wanna break all of your plans
you're coming back
becoming better
I'm getting better all the time
and all of these lives mean nothing to me
if I can't have you by my side
we crash into this world and start
to fade and break and fall apart
I'm running to the one thing I can't see
you're coming back
becoming better
I'm getting better all the time
and all of these lives mean nothing to me
if I can't have you by my side
you're coming back
becoming better
I'm getting better all the time
and all of these loves mean nothing to me
if I can't have you
yeah, I'll take you home

Dear Friend
04:16
|
|||
you'd be ashamed of all the things you said
as I stayed inside your bed
your friends are saying go and run and run and break away
he hurt you once
he hurt you twice
and now you're just a sacrifice he makes
when he has had too much to drink
all the things I swore I saw in you
I never saw them coming true
maybe I just need to see your face
here we go again, again
I always seem to let you in
and it's my fault 'cuz I'm the kind of girl who stays
chorus:
I'm sorry
I couldn't make you be a better friend
I'm sorry
you know I fought for you until the end
you said I'd be the world
and I meant to be your girl
but it's alright, it's alright
I can breathe
it's alright, it's alright
I can breathe
i'm the one who put it on the line
her heart, her clothes and all her time
left them lying on a bedroom floor
and you're the one who said it meant the most
as we fell back against the coast
i know I'll be the one to take the blame
chorus x1
and I'm the first to make it out
say it loud, just say it loud
if you wanted to be here
yeah, you would
I take this as a final stand
here I am and here I am
and all I have are all these empty words
here are the dreams I meant to hold onto
I kept them nice and safe for you
wrapped and made a lunch for you to take
maybe baby you'd be fair
and finally give me a care
call out when you think we're gonna break
'cuz I need a break
chorus x1

I Do

I was here all alone
Holding on to letting go
Until you came and brushed me off
said dont you know that you're enough
and how you see the things in me
i swear that no one else can see
the blinding stars
i'd give them all
to see you
to feel you
here's our night
here's the perfect time to say these words to you
I was fine
but so much better now
that I am here
with you I find that in your eyes
I see forever burning bright
you ask me if I think I was meant for you
I do
Make a move
I'm going to
just say the word
and you come through
for better, worse
or rich or poor
I never wanted something more
and when my world
was falling down
the only one who stayed around
is in my arms
and on my heart
it's always been you
here's our night
here's the perfect time to say these words to you
I was fine
but so much better now
that I am here
with you I find that in your eyes
I see forever burning bright
you ask me if I think I was meant for you
I do
As we move across the floor
I never felt like this before
you make me better
in your arms I feel like I am home
here's our night
here's the perfect time to say these words to you
I was fine
but so much better now
that I am here
with you I find that in your eyes
I see forever burning bright
you ask me if I think I was meant for you
I do

Over You
04:08
|
|||
you come as you are
thinking of her
filling the room with your lullabies
and so it begins
you sound like him
and all of these senses are flooding
you're mine
and where we could go
nobody knows
nobody's nobody's falling for
this
and maybe i'll stay
if you stay away
and let go
just let go of my wrists
i thought i was over you
now im under you
and i cant breathe
i cant breathe
and no
thats what I say
if thats how you play
then i'll be a player
and play for my own
keeps to the side
hands wont abide
falling and golden
but I sleep in shame
if you're what you do
then i'll be the fool
i'll be just like you
just a shadow on the wall
and you say we're the same
we're not the same
and i'm not to blame for what you've done to me
know you'll only take your time
holding on to what is mine
who are you to stay inside?

Tell Me
04:32
|
|||
Tell me are you happy
Are you settled with your mind
Ive been holding onto something
But you know I’m doing fine
If you jump, I’ll jump too
If you fall, I’ll carry you
Across the water
Through the fire
Oh, these walls I’m burning through
Tell me now
Gonna get to you somehow
Gonna find my way tonight
you know I'll be alright
Tell me are you ready
Fingers stretched and arms out wide
Making wishes on the counter
Taking bets and calling coins
If you go, I go too
I don’t leave unless with you
Ive been thinking
This is something
This is nothing without you
Tell me now
Gonna get to you somehow
Gonna find my way tonight
you know I'll be alright
tell it from the mountain
cant you see that we’ve got something
pretty real it’s all or nothing
pretty soon it’s all forgotten
think of all the things you meant to
take a breath for what you could do
I don’t see me
without you
Tell me now
Gonna get to you somehow
Gonna find my way tonight
you know I'll be alright

The State Of Me
04:51
|
|||
Maybe we'll go down as crazy
with a white flag sailing
above it all
breakthrough
when I lay beside you
that's the moment I knew
after all
Chorus:
I was an island
you were the raging sea
turning and breaking
over the state of me
I was a fallout impassibility
Oh, these lights how they burn for me
Oh, these lights how they burn for me
Maybe you're the reason
that I can't breathe
but, if I drown
I know you'll save me
tell me now
Chorus x1
And even though I know you stray
I'll never give my heart away
I'll follow you
we're going down
You know I'll run this love
aground
Don't go
I can feel your heart
it beats so
and when you're close I'm moving real slow
show me how
Chorus x1
Oh, tonight how you burn for me

I'm Not Going
04:54
|
|||
All of my friends say to give it up
let it go,let it go, let it go
as if that's enough
but, I let you in
into my home
and I gave you a key
guess I should have known
that you are what you are
there's no changing that
and I was who I was
so I turned my back
when I hear your voice I start to shake
wait for a sign
wait for tonight
I'm not going, I'm not going
you wasted your time
i'm ready to fight
I'm not going, I'm not going
down
so, you rang the alarm
kept your wolves at bay
they dont know what you do
only what you say
you might have them all fooled
but, i'm not the same
i'm the one that you found
i'm the one you made
when I see your face I start to scream
wait for a sign
wait for tonight
I'm not going, I'm not going
you wasted your time
i'm ready to fight
I'm not going, I'm not going
down
when I hear your voice
when I see your face
when I say your name I start to break
wait for a sign
wait for tonight
I'm not going, I'm not going
you wasted your time
i'm ready to fight
I'm not going, I'm not going
down
