1. HOUSE LIGHTS

It's time to make a start
To get to know your heart
Time to show your face
Time to take your place

In every speck of dust
In every universe
When you feel most alone
You will not be alone

Just shine a light on me
Shine a light
I'll shine a light on you
Shine a light

And you will see my shadow
On every wall
And you will see my footprints
On every floor

It only takes a spark
To tear the world apart
These tiny little things
That make it all begin

Just shine a light on me
Shine a light
I'll shine a light on you
Shine a light

And you will see my shadow
On every wall
And you will see my reflection
In your freefall

Ooooooooh
Ooh ooh

Ooooooooh
Ooooh ooh

Just shine a light on me
Shine a light
I'll shine a light on you
Shine a light

Cuz when your back's against the wall
That's when you show no fear at all
And when you're running out of time
That's when you hitch your star to mine

We won't be leaving by the same road
That we came by

We won't be leaving by the same road
That we came by

We won't be leaving by the same road
That we came by

We won't be leaving by the same road
That we came by

Oooooh ooh
Oooooh ooh
Oooooh ooh
Oooooh ooh


2. BACK IN TIME

I've got time to kill
I'm not living for the moment anymore
I don't wanna wake up
I've got time to kill
I'm not living for the future anymore
I don't wanna wake
I don't wanna wake up

She goes back in time
She goes back in time
She goes back in time

Time, I wait for you
Hibernating, hoping life will start again
Petal in the water
The days all seem the same
I dream by day, I shut the light out, I escape
I don't wanna wake
I don't wanna wake up

She goes back in time
She goes back in time
She goes back in time
She goes back in time
She goes back in time

Slumping backwards, I forget, I forget
Time has wrapped its drowsy arms around my neck
Don't wanna wake up
Don't wanna wake up

She goes back in time
She goes back in time
She goes back in time
She goes back in time
She goes back in time
She goes back in time
She goes back in time

And back again
And back again


3. STOP FOR A MINUTE (FT. K'NAAN)

Some days, feels my soul has left my body

Feel I'm floating high above me

Like I'm looking down upon me

Start sinking, everytime I get to thinking
It's easier to keep on moving
Never stop to let the truth in

Sometimes I feel like it's all been done
Sometimes I feel like I'm the only one
Sometimes I wanna change everything I've ever done
Too tired to fight and yet too scared to run

And if I stop for a minute
I think about things I really don't wanna know
And I'm the first to admit it
Without you I'm a liner stranded in an ice floe

I feel like I'm a thief who has no faith
Maybe more than by the grade
Of the drugs you took that day

Sinking in the pain he's been inflicting
Yet he's feeling like the victim
Just a horoscope's to blame

Sometimes I feel like a little lost child
Sometimes I feel like the chosen one
Sometimes I wanna shout out 'til everything goes quiet
Sometimes I wonder why I was ever born

And if I stop for a minute
I think about things really I don't wanna know
And I'm the first to admit it
Without you I'm child and so wherever you go
I will follow

One... yeah...
And baby you are just beautiful from crown to your cuticles
You held down my two sons, you never frown when duty calls
You know me, I gave you more than you can handle
But you still keep a handle on it, even when I take something beautiful and vandal on it
No more females? Well how come my emails got notes on a scandal
It's like Eve with the apple,
A priest in the chapel
Overcome by the devil's tackle
I'm still shackling the bad til I know
I'm such a hassle every time I let my thoughts go
I get baffled so I hardly pause
I just crossed seas with these gnarly broads
Cos it hurts me just to see what I finally lost
So I guess I'm just a fiend
Consumed by the scene
The stage and the screens
Where it's just me and Keane

And if I stop for a minute
I think about things I really don't wanna know
So I guess I'm just a fiend
Consumed by the scene
And I'm the first to admit it
Without you I'm a liner stranded in an ice floe
The stage and the screens
Where it's just me and Keane


4. CLEAR SKIES

High on the bell tower
I took my view
Over the downtowns
On the avenues

Where the streets are wide
And the people thrive
And its further to fall down
Cause you fly so high

I've never seen such a beauty
I've never seen such clear skies
I've never seen such high hopes
I've never seen such tired eyes

And I wish that I could be
Everything you are
Everything you are

Down in the delta
The city wakes
Turns on the TV
As the ...

Where the streets are burned
From the hot summer sun
And there's nowhere to run to
When your time has come

I've never seen such a beauty
I've never seen such clear skies
I've never seen such high hopes
I've never seen such tired eyes

Open wounds of piece by piece
All those flesh all over me
Take my pills and went to sleep
Oh, and I sang myself to sleep

And I wish that I could be
Everything you are
Everything you are
And I wish that I could see
The world the way you do
As selfishly as you

Oooh

And I wish that I could be
Everything you are
Everything you are
And I wish that I could stick
My faith the way you do
As certainly as you

The sky is going to fall on you
The sky is going to fall on you
The sky is going to fall on you
On you, on you.
The sky is going to fall on you
The sky.


5. ISHIN DENSHIN (YOU'VE GOT TO HELP YOURSELF)(FT. TIGARAH)

See how the world goes round
You've got to help yourself
See how the world goes round
And you'll help someone else

See how the world goes round
You've got to help yourself
See how the world goes round
And you'll help someone else

Pika pika no kutsu o nuide
Tabako o keshite
Daiji na yubiwa o hazushitara
Nanatsu no botan o hazushi
Umareta mama ni
Ikiteru jibun o
Aishite miyou

See how the world goes round
You've got to help yourself
See how the world goes round
And you'll help someone else

Jiman no bag o oite
Rouge o totte
Namida no shinju o fuitemite
Jyouzu na kesho o otoshi
Kokoro no oku o
Kagami no naka ni
Utsushite miyou

See how the world goes round
You've got to help yourself
See how the world goes round
And you'll help someone else

Jyouzu na kesho o otoshi

You've got to help yourself
See how the world goes round
And you'll help someone else

See how the world goes round
You've got to help yourself
See how the world goes round
That you will help me


6. YOUR LOVE

I didn't want to go
Go back and look for you
But it's a heartless drug
I'm addicted to

And when I drive that road
And start to feel that chill
I think I see your face
Do you come here still?

Those were the times and these were the places
Your love was so good
And now that I'm here, I suddenly find that I'm tumbling backwards

I'm back to where I was before
Dreaming of glory and your love
And now I'm lying on your floor
Crashed on the surface of your love

The chemicals react
And molecules collide
The poison works its way
Somewhere down inside

When we were young I really believed
Love would never leave us
But time has a knack of pulling the rug out
From underneath us

And nothing matters anymore
I'm still a victim of your love
And now I'm banging on your door
Tumbling backwards with your love
Over and over in your love

I know they're only ghosts
And memories that I'm clutching at
Maybe I'm reaching back
For something I never had
Still it seems so real to me
These ragged threads
That lead me back to you

I'm back to where I was before
Tumbling backwards at your love
And now I'm lying on your floor
Crashed on the surface of your love
and the other dreams we had
Fractioned and frozen with your love

You put a spell upon me there
Never be broken in your love
Nowhere to run to but your love
Over and over in your love


7. LOOKING BACK (FT. K'NAAN)

You’re living in a place you lived behind
Going round in circles all the time
Can see the way your head it's like you’re blind
So open your eyes and
Time realign just what you got
With what you nearly had and what you want
You fall asleep and then the moment’s gone
So open your eyes and…

(K’Naan, rap)
Yeah,hard to undo time
Hard to separate my past from the wrong
'Cause how can you separate milk from lime
Waste my time

Looking back
You always seem to be looking back
Feels like your mind’s always somewhere else
You’re always looking over your shoulder

Think about the places you could never be
Beauty in the faces that you never see
As you lad sleepy
How the moment flies
So open your eyes and…

(K’Naan, rap)
Yeah,they say life makes us backwards
Only you got to live it forward

Don’t waste your time, no
Don’t waste your time just looking back
You always seem to be looking back
Feels like your mind’s always somewhere else
You’re always looking over your shoulder
Looking back
You always seem to be looking back
Feels like your mind’s always somewhere else
You’re always looking over your shoulder

(K’Naan, rap)
Looking back
You always seem to be looking back
Feels like your mind's always somewhere else
You're always looking over your shoulder

Am I the only one tryna fight off an army
Of memories, dressed up, all tryin'to harm me
I feel cocky running up the steps like Rocky
Until the past comes flashing like paparazzi

Nothing is new so I open my folder
My favorite view is over my shouldder
Everything backwards is my plight
It's landing first would end my flight

Even my tears run up my cheeks, back in my eye
Live I die

Don’t waste your time just looking back
You always seem to be looking back
Feels like your mind’s always somewhere else
You’re always looking over your shoulder
You always seem to be looking back
Feels like your mind’s always somewhere else
You’re always looking over your shoulder

You’re always looking back
Over, and over, and over
You’re always looking back


8. MY SHADOW

It's time to make a start
To get to know your heart
Time to show your face, time to take your place

In every speck of dust
In every universe,
When you feel most alone, you will not be alone

Just shine a light on me, shine a light
I'll shine a light on you, shine a light
And you will see my shadow on every wall
And you will see my footprint on every floor

It only takes a spark to tear the world apart
These tiny little things that make it all begin

Just shine a light on me, shine a light
I'll shine a light on you, shine a light
And you will see my shadow on every wall
And you'll see my reflection in your free fall

Ooh, Oh Ooh, Ooh, Oh Ooh!

Just shine a light on me, shine a light
I'll shine a light on you, shine a light
'Cause when your back's against the wall
That's when you show no fear at all
And when you're running out of time
That's when you hitch your star to mine

We won't be leaving by the same road that we came by
We won't be leaving by the same road that we came by
We won't be leaving by the same road that we came by
We won't be leaving by the same road that we came by

Oh Ooh, Oh Ooh, Oh Ooh, Oh Ooh!
