1. Don't Wait
The sky glows
I see it shining when my eyes close
I hear your warnings but we both know
I'm gonna look at it again
Don't wait, Don't wait
The road ends now in suddency,
And suddenly, you're deep enough
To let your armor down
To let your armor down
To let your armor down
You get one look
I'll show you something that the knive took.
A bit to early for my own good
Now let's not speak of it again
Don't wait, Don't wait
The road ends now in suddency,
And suddenly, you're deep enough
To let your armor down
To let your armor down
To let your armor down
Don't wait, Don't wait
The lights will flash and fade away
The days will pass you by
Don't wait
To let your armor down [x5]
2. Reason To Believe
Oh, sweet lungs don't fail me now.
Your burning has turned into fear.
It drills me in my every step,
I'm moving quick but you're always on my heels.
Just one more breath, I beg you please.
Just one more step, my knees are weak.
My heart is sturdy but it needs you to survive.
My heart is sturdy but it needs you.
Breathe, don't you want to breathe?
I know that you are strong enough to handle what I need.
My capillaries scream there's nothing left to feed on.
My body needs a reason to cross that line.
Will you carry me there one more time?
Steady lungs, don't fail me now.
I feel you bursting but you won't let me die.
Fill me up with every step,
I'm feeling sick but I'm leaving it behind.
Just one more breath, I beg you please.
Just one more step, you are not weak.
My legs are sturdy but they need you to survive.
My heart is sturdy but I need you.
Breathe, don't you want to breathe?
I know that you are strong enough to handle what I need.
My capillaries scream there's nothing left to feed on.
My body needs a reason to cross that line.
Will you carry me there once more?
Once more.
I have reason to believe that I have victories to taste.
I can feel them on my teeth, upon my lips, and in my chest.
I can roll them on my tongue.
They are more supple than defeat.
I feel the tension in my lungs,
And every move is fueled by my resolve to...
Breathe, don't you want to breathe?
I know that you are strong enough to handle what I need.
My capillaries scream there's nothing left to feed on.
My body needs a reason to cross that line.
Would you carry me there one more time?
3. The Secret's In The Telling
The Signal, its subtle
We pass just close enough to touch
No Questions, no Answers
We Know by now to say enough
With only simple words
With only subtle terms
The Things we Feel alone from one another
There Is A Secret That We Keep
I Wont Sleep If You wont Sleep
Because Tonight Might be the last chance well be given
We are compelled to do
What we must do
We are compelled to do
What We have been forbidden
So i wont sleep if you wont sleep tonight
Our act of defiance, we keep this secret in our blood
No paper, Or Letters
We pass just close enough to touch
We love in secret names
We hide in our veins
The Things that keep us bound to one another
There is a secret that we keep
I wont sleep if you wont sleep
Because Tonight Might be the last chance well be given
We are compelled to do
What we must do
We are compelled to do
What We have been forbidden
Until The last resilient hope is frozen deep inside my bones
And this broken fate has cleaned me and my memories for its own
Your name is pounding through my veins, cant you hear how it is sung
And I can taste you in my mouth, while the words escape my lungs
And ill whisper only once
There is a secret that we keep
I wont sleep if you wont sleep
Because Tonight Might be the last chance well be given
We are compelled to do
What we must do
We are compelled to do
What We have been forbidden
Cause you will be somebody's girl
You will keep each other warm
But tonite, I am here in the cold.
4. Stolen
We watched the season pull up its own stage
And catch the last weekend of the last week.
Before the gold and the glamour have been replaced
Another sun-soaked season fades away.
You have stolen my heart.
You have stolen my heart.
Invitation, all in grand farewells, crushed the best one of the best ones.
Clear liquor and cloudy eye, too early to save the night.
You have stolen my heart.
You have stolen my heart.
And from the bottom floor, we are in celebration
On good stretch before my hibernation.
Our dreams assured, and we all, we'll sleep well.
Sleep well, sleep well, sleep well, sleep well.
You have stolen my, you have stolen, you have stolen my heart.
watch it spin around in the highest hills
you are the best one, of the best ones.
We all look like we feel.
You have stolen my, you have stolen my, you have stolen my heart.
5. Rooftops and Invitations
The first time you looked at her curves
You were hooked
And the glances you took
Took hold of you and demanded that you stay.
And sunk in their teeth
Bit your heart and released.
Such a charge that you need
Another touch, another taste, another fix
She just might get you lost.
And she just might leave you torn.
But she just might save your soul
And she gets you when she
She gets you any closer.
She leads you up
Points out skylines and stars.
Steeple chases in bars and took your keys
And demanded that you stay
The city longs well for
Rooftops and invitations
All laced in secret places
She moves you to touch with her hands
And she just might get you lost.
And she just might leave you torn.
But she just might save your soul
And she gets you when she
She gets you any closer.
Can you believe your eyes.
6. So Long, So Long
Hand out the window
Floatin' on air
Just a flip of the wrist
I'd be wavin' you goodbye
Drive past the lifeguard stand
Where I sit around waiting for you to remember
Well past the beach hotels
Where the girls are getting' bronzed on their monogrammed towels
I drive this ocean road
And I remember
How the girls could turn to ghosts before your eyes
And the very dreams that led to them are keeping them from dying
And how the grace with which she walked into your life
Will stay with you in your steps,
Paced with you a while
So long, so long [x2]
The speaker in this door is blown
So nothing sounds quite right
And I drive this ocean road
And remember
The small of your back
And the nape of your neck
And the soft way you'd hold me in the night
I remember
How the girls can turn to ghosts before your eyes
And the very dreams that led to them are keeping them from dying
And how the grace with which she walked into your life
Will stay with you in your steps,
Pace with you a while
So long, so long...
And I will leave under the cover
Of summer's kiss upon the sky
Like the storm face of your lover
Just before she says goodbye
I was certain that the season could be held between my arms
But just as summer's hold is fleeting
I was here and now I'm gone
I'm gone...
7. Currents
The air is visible around you,
Rising up and off your lips in slow currents.
And I watch as your face is framed in it's slow currents.
Drifting curls, a trailing path,
A long drag becomes a tress of blue and ash.
If it is born in flames then we should let it burn.
Burn as brightly as we can.
And if it's going to end then let it end in flames.
Let it burn all the way down.
The air is visceral around us,
Turning in it's circle steps on slow currents.
And I watch as it pirouettes and spins in slow motion.
A long drag becomes a slow dance in a halo of ember.
If it is born in flames then we should let it burn.
Burn as brightly as we can.
And if it's going to end then let it end in flames.
Let it burn all the way down.
All the way down.
And if this is ever meant to end,
Then I hope it ends where it began.
So hot with love, we burned our hands.
If this ever meant to end,
Then I hope it ends where it began.
So hot with love, it burns our hands.
If it is born in flames then we should let it burn.
Burn as brightly as we can.
And if it's going to end then let it end in flames.
Let it burn.
Let it burn,
If it's going to end.
Let it burn,
If it's going to end.
Let it burn,
It ends where it began,
So hot with love, it burns our hands.
8. Slow Decay
Stand down, son
Start resting easy
You've done your service
I am proud to have you home
And see you safe
It's so good
You look so strong
In that picture on the mantel
You sent your mom when you were gone
But you look scared now,
Hollow-eyed
When are you coming
When are you coming
Back where you belong
I swear that it's safe here
Theres nothing to fear at all
Come on back where you belong
The pressure releases
If you just put down your gun
Everything rests on you
You know that feeling well
The ball is falling
Falling
Falling
So far from a close call
Your injuries aren't mortal wounds
The only thing that's killing you
Is what you saw and what you couldn't stop
But you're not the one I blame
It wasn't your mistake
But you're safe now so come on
Back where you belong
I swear that it's safe here
Theres nothing to fear at all
Come on back where you belong
The pressure releases
If you just put down your gun
It's the simple things Dad,
I'm not hurt
I'm not dead
I just should be where my friends are lying
And I didn't hate those that I killed
But they're all dead now
And I'm here alive
With satellites
And Friday nights
And no one to judge me
For the things that I've done at all
So how can I live with that
Back where I belong
Take me back where I belong
You swear that it's safe here
There is nothing to fear at all
Take me back where I belong
The pressure releases
If I just put down my gun.
9. Dusk and Summer
She smiled in a big way, the way a girl like that smiles when the world is hers.
And she held your eyes, out in the breezeway, down by the shore, in the lazy summer
And she pulled you in and she bit your lip
and she made you hers
and she looked deep into you as you layed together deep in the grass
of dusk and summer
But you've already lost
But you've already lost
But you've already lost when you only have barely enough to hang on.
And she combed your hair and she kissed your teeth
And she made you better than you've been before.
And she told you bad things you wished you could change in the lazy summer.
And she told you laughing down to her core
So she would not cry as she lay in your lap
summer.
But you've already lost, but you've already lost
But you've already lost when you only have barely enough to hang on.
And she said, "No one is alone the way you are alone."
And you held her looser than you would have if you ever could have known.
Some things tie a life together, you slendered threads and things to treasure.
Days like that should last and last and last.
But you've already lost, but you've already lost
But you've already lost when you only have barely enough of her to hang on.
Hang on. hang on. hang on.
10. Heaven Here
We are the only ones who feel it
Tonight we drink
Tonight we dance
We are the last ones who can hear it
We're calling in whispers
We're tired of waiting
We'll take what we want
And we'll leave what we don't behind
We are still dreamers in our dead sleep
Naked and tangled
Twisted and loving tonight
We are the only ones who feel it
So let it last all night
Let the fire surround us
Let it all cave in
Let it all burn wild
We are leaving it all behind
We are leaving it all behind
Heaven is here
Heaven is here
Heaven is here
We are tangled and brave
We are naked and saved
And heavens not waiting
Its spilling its secrets
Its right here between us
And we've no other choice but believe
We've no other choice but believe
We've no other choice but believe
So let it last all night
So let it last all night
So let it last all night
Naked and
Tangled and
Twisted
And tonight we are the only ones who feel it
Heaven is here
Heaven is here
And tonight we are the only ones who feel it.
