In The Sky

I look at you through other people's eyes
in faces that you cannot recognise
and you begin to act so differently
I see a side of you i never see
and maybe if we turn the lights down low
i'll meet a part of you i didn't know
and maybe if you open up to me
you'll see a part of me you never see
it's dislodged from your memory
it's far too gone to try
there was angels walking on the earth
and people flying by
and soon the leaves upon the trees
will all turn to the sky
and if you listen to the ground enough
you'll hear it sigh/cry
it's in the sky it's talking soon
she sits and listens to the moon
take a swim in the lagoon
as the night turns to day
well it will only be a little while
before see starts and stops to smile
and in that time well i will find
a place to hide away
a place to hide
a place to hide
so when you see it from my point of view
you will be standing here looking at you
and all the lights that shine into your eyes
will only make it more of a surprise
and all the things that I tried to say
before you got up and you walked away
and all the things that you tried to say
before I got up and I walked away

How It Starts
03:39
|

so I guess that this is how it starts
when I can't control my heart
when I step inside a room your in
scared it might burst through my skin
I could take you far away
make the morning last the day
we could go back or we might
let the evening last the night
and all the people that I knew before
never come around knocking here anymore
and I know I told you it would be alright
if you tell me that you don't want to drive
home tonight well that's alright
open up my eyes I see you there
run my fingers through your hair
seems i'm happy for you just to be
happy lying next to me
I could hold you in my arms
you could keep me safe from harm
we could lead ourselves astray
if we just stayed here today
and all the people that I knew before
never come around knocking here anymore
and I know I told you it would be alright
if you tell me that you don't want to drive
home tonight well that's alright

Break & Enter
03:40
|
|||
|
She breaks and enters right into my head
Listens to things that I would not have said
And as if the words they have slipped from my tongue
I know finished before I’ve begun
And every once every once in a while
Pick up the phone and I start to dial
But I always hang up before it goes through
Seems I cannot face talking to you
I do not know what you could possibly say that I have not heard
You only come here just to take it away and it’s so absurd
I cannot find in the back of my mind anything that keeps us here my dear
Gave me the bullet
She gave me the gun
Said it’s the same thing I would have done
And I guess it just well it just goes to show
Just how little about me you know
And every once every once in a while
Picture your face and I start to smile
Until a shock runs straight into my brain
Just to remind me that you are insane man
I do not know what you could possibly say that I have not heard
You only come here just to take it away and it’s so absurd
I cannot find in the back of my mind anything that keeps us here my dear

She Said
04:03

she said why are you standing there boy
why don't you come here and hold me
why don't you come here and hold me
so I went and I knew that it was a ploy
but I did just what she told me
she told me oh she told me
the fire was burning out of control
I saw your face inside the glow
I was not sure if it was true
I burnt my hands to rescue you
but it was just my thoughts it seems
she comes and permeates my dreams
I know it's useless but i've tried
to stay awake when i am tired
the tales i've sewn have surely grown
to give myself away
I might listen but i'd never ever say
in moments i can only hope
that i might live that way
I might wander but i never ever stray
I lost my breath inside the sea
she used her lips to breathe for me
I thought that it was all a dream
until i heard my conscience scream
it was only then i realised
she was not there before my eyes
I had to scratch and scramble through
I live to keep the thought of you
and she said why are you standing there boy
why don't you come here and hold me
why don't you come here and hold me

Always
03:41
|
|||
|
here we are again
we’ve been here once before
never letting go but always wanting more
and it seems to me
that nothing’s going right
so do we up and leave
or stay in this and fight
cos i wanna fight for this
but you don’t know what this is
no you don’t know what this is
i don’t want to but i’ll be loving you always
holding onto but i’ll be loving you always
time will take you but i’ll be loving you always
i should hate you but i’ll be loving you always
when i look outside i see the storm set in
and as the rain comes down i feel it on my skin
and as we drift away and look back at the past
i could only hope that this was gonna last
cos i wanna fight for this
but you don’t know what this is
no you don’t know what this is
i don’t want to but i’ll be loving you always
holding onto but i’ll be loving you always
time will take you but i’ll be loving you always
i should hate you but i’ll be loving you always
i guess i wanna have let you know
i never should have let you go

The River
04:31
|
|||
|
caught your shadow moving out the corner of my eye
you were moving towards me as you waved yourself goodbye
never have I been with nothing else to say
but when you whispered in my ears you stole my words away
i'll be gunning for you till shoot you down with love
never to be boring when your lacing up your gloves
but we all know it comes and goes and sometimes slips away
you could have chose to hold me close and keep me here to stay
but you sold me down the river
I had to give up all that I had found
you know when you start to shiver
there's not a thing I can do about it now
but I can only hope that you might help me find
you had me on the ropes but you let me off in time
and if we can set it off well it might just fall apart
but what else can we do with these broken hearts.

Obviousoblivious
03:20

looking at the ceiling picturing the stars
I wonder how your feeling I wonder where you are
I wonder if your dealing just as bad as me
and maybe if we opened our eyes just enough to see
this all fall apart
but I guess it's not so obvious to those who
could not see past their eyes
but I guess it's just so oblivious to those who
did not try and recognise
looking at the sunset waiting for the rain
hoping it will come down and wash away my pain
I know now where you’re going but where is it from you came
the side effects have vanished but you still remain the same
somehow oh somehow
but I guess it's not so obvious
but I guess it's not so bad

Hide It Away
03:39
|

Hide it away underneath your skin
and I will crawl back in and i will be there
under the water where I can be alone
and drift out on my own and I can see that
tide brings me back again
hide underneath your skin
follow me and I will be off again
in my arms where I can hold you close
and be with you the most no time is wasted
ocean floor well I would walk the sea
to have you here with me so I can taste it
tide brings me back again
hide underneath your skin
hoping for the walls to crack
the water comes and takes me back
I know that we will be together soon.
looking up I see you coming down
and I can't help you now I know what this means
i'll keep you up but I won't help you drown
we swim towards the sound of the shore shaking
