Shadows 03:13
darkness calls - loudest when you're sleeping. bouncing off the walls, entertaining demons on my own. when darkness falls, as heavy as you slumber... (then) my heart slips beneath the weight, of all thats going to break, all thats going to break. wading through shadows, an orchestra of doubt. how are we connected, tell me - i've never worked it out. darkness crawls - just beyond your dreaming. hiding in the hall, i'm exorcising memories one by one. then darkness stalks, as you begin to murmur... + my hope sinks, searching as it breaks, for strength its going to take, the strength its going to take. wading through shadows, an orchestra of doubt. how are we connected, tell me - i've never worked it out.

give me something give me something why so dark? was that perhaps a little too sharp, you act as if i burnt your crust... what was that, is there something else? you seem perplexed that i'm not myself. so much left to say, but i need an empty page. it's been the longest hollow day, sweet release as i bury it away... sweetness - you seem so dark. lover - you pull it all apart. i've left a trail of papercuts, my razored tongue hit every mark. forgive me love, i'll work things through - sleep it off, reappear brand new. unfair to say, but stop holding back... once released, you can't retract. i'm pushing things because they're stuck - where's the line beneath all this stuff? so much left to say, but i need an empty page. it's been the longest hollow day, sweet release as i bury it away... give me something - something new, something i can hold unto. something else, something new sweetness ... lover .. sweetheart you undo fast lovely why so dark? break it up, move on shake it up, move on waking up, movin' on... sweetness you seem so dark... break it up, move on shake it up, move on break it up, move on sweetness you seem so dark... why so dark? break it up, move on shake it up, move on break it up, move on sweetness...

life is all about, the little surprises. answers that you'll find, when you change your state of mind. colours that you'll spy, when love opens up your eyes - just take your time. don't you think - you've outgrown your reach. + all your pretty things aside - your still alone, your still alone. won't you hold... open wide your arms. life is all about, the little surprises. answers that you'll find, when you change your state of mind. colours that you'll spy, when love opens up your eyes - just take your time. in the endless pursuit, of serious stuff. your peice of pie, won't be enough. can never be enough. life is all about, the little surprises. answers that you'll find, when you change your state of mind. colours that you'll spy, when love opens up your eyes - just take your time... let nothing slip, let nothing slip you bye. just take your time, just take your time... let nothing slip you bye. aa-oh little surprises little surprises, little surprises, little surprises...

this is our first review, this is your last adieu. this is my time to say i never wanted that. you've got your own road to run, i've gotta say we've had such fun. you've got your life to lead - don't waste my time turning back. you break my heart your the only one who knows where to start. you break my heart - i just hope that you make it fast, this time, this time this time make it fast this time, this time this time make it fast. trust yourself, this is your cue truthfully so overdue. + its ok to admit you've always wanted this. always here, the loop i'd run my private star, unsteady sun. who knows where this life may lead, don't waste your time turning back. you break my heart your the only one who knows where to start. you break my heart - i just hope that you make it fast, this time, this time this time make it fast this time, this time this time make it fast. fast, fast ,fast, this time, this time this time make it fast this time, this time this time make it fast. you break my heart your the only one who knows where to start. you break my heart - i just hope that you make it fast, this time, this time this time make it fast this time, this time this time make it fast.

you... you caught a piece of me that i'll never get back. i wonder if thats 'it' i miss, not you, just that. then i see you, from the other room... it's like the years spun away but my heart stood still. did you know, couldn't you tell? you were supposed to - catch me... as we fell. yeah.... you were never simple babe, i'll give you that. but the obvious thing to me, was you gave up, too fast. then i see you after all this time... + suddenly my 'life-since-you', screams of lies. did you know, couldn't you tell? you were supposed to - catch me... as we fell. there's nothing to say, no rope to run with. who's going to - catch me... if i fall, tonight. keep it up - chin stuck out, aim for the door... just get out. breathe easy now - its closer, getting closer, it's over... i'm out.

You 'Aint It 02:58
you seem to think that your 'in -love' child. but wind it back - we know its not your style. that spark is hiding all your true lies. i see it coming... in your blue, blue eyes. your blue, blue eyes. i've been waiting for so long but the moment has passed + it's way, way gone. (yeah) i've been waiting for someone, but you ain't 'it' - + its time, to move on. you think b'cos you're flying solo, i'd simply drop my standards that... low + behold, no change of heart. i see you coming from a hundred yards, at least a hundred yards. i've been waiting for so long but the moment has passed + it's way, way gone. (yeah) i've been waiting for someone, but you ain't 'it' - + its time, to move on... i've been waiting for so long but the moment has passed + it's way, way gone. (yeah) i've been waiting for someone, but you ain't 'it' - + its time, to move... i've been waiting for so long but the moment has passed + it's way, way gone. (yeah) i've been waiting for someone, but you ain't 'it' - + its time, to move on. you ain't 'it' + its time, to move on you ain't 'it' + its time, to move on you ain't 'it' + its time

no request placed. no such order made. too much here to lose, contain the moment - before it bleeds. back it up now. don't look at me that way. batten down, get a grip - i think there's been, a grand mistake. suprise. where did you come from? good luck, goodbye... there's not a green light left in sight. thats enough now. learn to walk away. i think were done here - darling you're not that high, to be this brave. so keep your distance + i will hold the space. too much like trouble written in your face. suprise. where did you come from? good luck, goodbye... can't have my life undone. suprise. where did you come from? good luck, goodbye... can't have my life undone. can't have my life undone. can't have my life undone. can't have my life undone. good luck, goodbye.

Fragile 03:17
i don't want to go home in the rain, to move on, reabsorb this pain. i feel safe here, one part removed. can't we stay here, is there something to prove? don't you breathe on me never felt so fragile don't you reach for me i fear i'll dissapate... took me by complete suprise today - a wave so strong + on my knees again. the water's deep dear, too scared to move. i'd rather freeze here, lest i come unglued. don't you breathe on me never felt so fragile don't you reach for me i fear i'll dissapate... +i'm not sure, not sure, not sure not sure I'll cope with this not sure, not sure, not sure not sure I'll cope with this don't you breathe on me never felt so fragile don't reach for me... don't you breathe on me no, no, feel too fragile, don't you reach for me i fear i may dissapate...

Dissolving 06:40
got an apple in each hand, too many choices. + a plane ticket written in a language - i don't understand. i can see myself in the sun ... under foreign skies + with no plans. mhmmn which apple which... hand. got an apple in each hand, too many choices. + a plane ticket written in a language - i don't understand. i can see you standing there ... under heavy skies, with all your plans. mhmmn which apple, which hand. ever held your breath for too long, erased yourself to belong? no one to solve it nothings, nothings dissolving nothings, nothings dissolving got an apple in each hand, too many choices. + a plane ticket written in a language - i don't understand. i can see us lying there... under starry skies, blessedly unplanned. which apple, mhmmn, which hand. ever held your breath for too long, erased yourself to belong? no one to solve it nothings, nothings dissolving nothings, nothings dissolving dissolving, nothings dissolving dissolving, dissolving... no one to solve it.

it's only stuff, you give it life. just spell it out - then change your mind. some things add up, some draw lines. don't beat yourself - so hard this time. we all fall down we all fall down we all fall down sometimes... we've all got stuff, we'd rather hide. when enough's enough, then you'll decide... to step up, leave it all behind. just don't treat yourself - so harsh next time. laced with sugar tied with pride you trip on yourself b4 you hide... slow down honey, i can't keep up - you think that you're the only one who's so messed up? we all fall down we all fall down we all fall down we all fall down we all fall down we all fall down sometimes...
