Weightless

Over now
Fetch your things and leave what's lost
The storm is
Over now
The burden you deserve
Is one that is weightless
I know
The searching
Alone and silently yearning
A hope tainted with doubt
Come now, take rest
All you are in one breath
Returning
Weightless
Now I'm awake
The sky is cold but my heart keeps singing
O light, I long for you
I know you long for me too

It was in the air
The sun, the sand and your hand in my hair
I wish you could hold me
One more time
Wanna dance with you in the amber skies
I wish, oh, if only
It was kinda like a dream
A world that I never knew
That's when you caught my eye
Walking through these streets
The way that the people move
A fire just like mine
Just to be dancing with you
Just like then, we'll get lost again
You'll make me feel just like you do
But it'll never end, oh yeah
It was in the air
The sun, the sand and your hand in my hair
I wish you could hold me
One more time
Wanna dance with you in the amber skies
I wish, oh, if only
There must be something in the water
Your touch would turn night to day
In the blink of an eye
I didn't wanna give my heart up
Just wanted to get away
Now I got one thing on my mind
Just to be dancing with you
Just like then, we'll get lost again
You'll make me feel just like you do
But it'll never end, oh yeah
It was in the air
The sun, the sand and your hand in my hair
I wish you could hold me
One more time
Wanna dance with you in the amber skies
I wish, oh, if only
It's you and me
Taking me places that I've never been
You're all I need
Now, don't wanna give it up
Memories
Got imprinted in my soul
Till I'm back in your arms
It was in the air
The sun, the sand and your hand in my hair
I wish you could hold me
One more time
Wanna dance with you in the amber skies
I wish, oh, if only

Say It Again

Flooding these halls
Are oceans I won’t hide
Rolling behind my eyes
I guess I’m running wild
The blood on my palms
I lie and say it’s all mine
A war I had to fight
Oh, I need this
I'm in over my head
Bet you wish that I would calm down
Feels so good to keep going up
Don't make me say it again
Watch your step I'm on a roll now
Feels so good to keep going up
I'll rip it out the sky
And carve my name in lights
If I don't make it mine
Heaven knows I tried
Good one
I let you hit my pride
But you’ve gone lost your mind
If you thought I’d lay down and die
This isn’t no rerun
I’m back but twice as wise
There’s darkness in your skies
I’m coming for ya, I’m coming for ya
I'm in over my head
Bet you wish that I would calm down
Feels so good to keep going up
Don't make me say it again
Watch your step I'm on a roll now
Feels so good to keep going up
The winds, they roar with change
They carve into my face as
I'm running
I'll bend the horizon
Hope will take my place
A knowing I can't shake
I'm reminded
The mountain, I've become it
I'll rip it out the sky
And carve my name in lights
If I don't make it mine
Heaven knows I tried

I bet it tastes so good
I hope you savour it doll
The heart that you ripped out my chest
Savour it
You were just another lesson to learn
It’s a bit of a wake up call
The love we had now that’s dead
Savour it
With no bullets left in your gun
Well I hope you had fun
Turn all the lights out
Shoot your shot, and the eclipse the truth
It’s a matter of time now
You’ll be alone with no one else but you
The rise and fall of your wicked smile
I bet you think I wished you stay a while
If that’s what you need to believe
Well I don’t mind
Mountains fall and the colours fade
Like the sun you’ll be left in yesterday
With everything left to lose
How could you
With no bullets left in your gun
Well I hope you had fun
Turn all the lights out
Shoot your shot, and the eclipse the truth
It’s a matter of time now
You’ll be alone with no one else but you
Remember just who took your hand and
Pulled you from the ground
But in my sights you won't be spared
When it comes crashing down
Turn all the lights out
Shoot your shot, and the eclipse the truth
It’s a matter of time now
You’ll be alone with no one else but you

There it is
The drip
Someone I can't quite feel
In my blind spot with no seal
I mean
It shouldn't be a big deal
Because it's not real, right?
But every night
But it is real, you say
And you will heal, you say
And as you see my pain
It looks horrific and
Even so
You stay
I saw your eyes that day
Kind
Almost to say
Just give it time
With me

Pull Me Closer

A missed phone call
Another message left
A runaway on the road to nowhere
You hear my heart
I know it
Break my own heart
And I’m at your door
Yet you still hold me just the way you did before
You hear my heart
I know it
I don’t know why I run
I don’t have to face it on my own
But every time I’m undone
Cos
Your hands are warm just like the sun
They know me
You tell me all we need is love
So show me
Your hands are warm just like the sun
(So pull me closer)
They know me
You tell me all we need is love
(Just let me hold ya)
So show me
Maybe it’s force of habit
Or I’m a fool
Spent my whole life searching
Why'd I do the things I do
I'd give my life before I'd hurt you
I don’t know why I run
I don’t have to face it on my own
But every time I’m undone
Your hands are warm just like the sun
(So pull me closer)
They know me
You tell me all we need is love
(Just let me hold ya)
So show me
It's all I know
Just can't let go
So sure, so true
What could be when I'm with you
See me through
Your hands are warm just like the sun
(So pull me closer)
They know me
You tell me all we need is love
(Just let me hold ya)
So show me
Your hands are warm just like the sun
(So pull me closer)
They know me
You tell me all we need is love
(Just let me hold ya)
So show me

Tomorrow
02:55
|

I spent most of my life trying to fight tomorrow
I didn't think I would make it through
You know, I could dry my eyes
I could forget the sorrow
If tomorrow looked like you
You never think it’s you till the clouds are rolling in
Tell me what does it take to face the winds of time?
But what does it become if all the magic ends?
If you believe, I know we’ll get it right
I spent most of my life trying to fight tomorrow
I didn't think I would make it through
You know, I could dry my eyes
I could forget the sorrow
If tomorrow looked like you
The storm will carry on
But what it made of us
So much more than I thought I'd become
So we run, we run
I spent most of my life trying to fight tomorrow
I didn't think I would make it through
You know, I could dry my eyes
I could forget the sorrow
If tomorrow looked like you
I spent most of my life trying to fight tomorrow
I didn't think I would make it through
You know, I could dry my eyes
I could forget the sorrow
If tomorrow looked like you

Don’t say it love, what you tried to say
My heart won’t make sense of it anyway
I can’t make you stay but before you go
Slow down, slow down
I’ve seen it love, more than once before
The shadow of a back walking out the door
The final words I never heard you say
Slow down, slow down
I know there’s somewhere where the story ends
Where what you’re searching for is in my hands
Broken pieces and faint outlines lost in time
Maybe some stories are meant to be unfinished
I'll let you go again
And carry on
The weight I can’t hold here in every song
I fall again for a ghost of you
A memory I keep living gone too soon
Now tell me
Am I haunting you?
I know there’s somewhere where the story ends
Where what you’re searching for is in my hands
Broken pieces and faint outlines lost in time
Maybe some stories are meant to be unfinished
I know
We might cross paths again someday
Our faces might not look the same
And you might turn and walk away
It hurts
Holding a heart that just won't mend
Some forget and most pretend
We're all just trying in the end
I guess I've learned
Maybe these scars will never fade
Maybe these holes will all remain
But maybe the point was not to stay, but to change
Over now
The joy we found
Colours the path I now must tread
Every shade shines through
The parts of me I found in you
Will build this heart again
I know there’s somewhere where the story ends
Where what you’re searching for is in my hands
Broken pieces and faint outlines lost in time
Maybe some stories are meant to be unfinished
