Where Do We Go?
03:49
|

Why does the rain
Always make me feel so sleepy?
Tired of this, tired of that
And everything between
If I drove away
Would your sun come out
From wherever it hides
To push away the thunderclouds?
Though it pains me much to say
I have felt you slip away
Many years before today
So where do we go
Where do we go
Where do we go from here?
Where do we go
Where do we go
Where do we go from here?
Where do we go
Where do we go
Where do we go from here?
When you look back
On the things we've shared
Over all of these years
What do you think
We could salvage now?
I guess we'll see
In the future
Twenty years or so from now
Maybe then we'll understand
Though it pains me much to say
I have felt you slip away
Many years before today
So where do we go
Where do we go
Where do we go from here?
Where do we go
Where do we go
Where do we go from here?
Where do we go
Where do we go
Where do we go from here?
Where do we go
Where do we go
Where do we go from here?
So where do we go
Where do we go
Where do we go from here?
Where do we go
Where do we go
Where do we go from here?
Where do we go
Where do we go
Where do we go from here?
Where do we go
Where do we go
Where do we go from here?

Figure Out Your Life
02:38

I want to see you jump
I want to see you fly
Look into my eyes
What do you see?
It's not polite
It's not polite to run
So take a walk outside
Go figure out your life
Figure out your life
Figure out your life
There was a time
There was a time way back
When everything was right
It was so nice
But now we're here
So much time has passed
And everything's gone wrong
What took you so long
To figure out your life
Figure out your life
Go figure out your life
Figure Out your life
I want to see you jump
I want to see you fly
Look into my eyes
What do you see?
You know it's not
It's not too late to try
So take a walk outside
Try to figure out your life
Figure out your life
Figure out your life
Go figure out your life
Figure out your life

Something to Say
02:37
|

|
She didn't want to do it today
And I couldn't take her place
I really wish there was something to say
But I can't think of anything
I can't think of anything
I can't think of anything
I can't think of anything
She didn't want to do it today
And I couldn't take her place
I wish there was something to say
But I can't think of anything
I can't think of anything
I can't think of anything
I can't think of anything
Can't think of anything

Never
04:03
|

Lying on my back
Looking up at the sky
Everything's black
With speckles of white
And I know
I'll never see the light of day
I'll never breathe the air
I'll never be the perfect one
You were hoping for
And I don't care
Lying to my face
In the heat of the night
I could really wreck this place
But I don't wanna fight
'Cause I know
I'll never see the light of day
I'll never breathe the air
I'll never be the perfect one
You were hoping for
And I don't care
Lying on the floor
Looking hard at my life
Everything is black
I'll never see the light of day
I'll never breathe the air
I'll never be the perfect one
You were hoping for
I'll never see the light of day
I'll never breathe the air
I'll never be the perfect one
You were hoping for
I'll never see the light of day
I'll never breathe the air
I'll never be the perfect one
You were hoping for
But I don't care

You Could Love Me
02:53
|
|||
|
You asked me what I'd say
If you went away
I told you I don't know
Besides, where would you go?
I hope these seasons show
What heaven only knows
You could love me if you tried
You could love me more than life
You could love me
But you won't take the time
You won't take the time
I can't believe my eyes
I can't even cry
The story love departs
Revealing naked hearts
You're so used to using me
I'm so lost without a dream
You could love me if you tried
You could love me if I died
You could love me
But you won't take the time
If you'd just take the time
But you won't take the time, yeah
You could love me if you tried
You could love me more than life
You could love me
But you won't take the time

One Day
04:38
|
|||
|
You said you want out that
You are tired of where you're at
You asked me to let you
Walk away, leave just like that
It's time some new places
Faces got to know you
Besides, you see no signs
That I'll ever get a clue
Oh and I wonder
Is what you found
Giving all you hoped it would?
Is what you found
Sweeping the lies away?
Well I hope it is
I pray so
'Cause I'd really hate
Turning up lost one day
So many days have passed and
Still I hear your voice in here
Here inside my head
Sometimes I think
You just might reappear
But I know we can never
Go back to those old days
And I would say goodbye but
You are so long gone away
But I still wonder
Is what you found
Giving all you hoped it would?
Is what you found
Sweeping the lies away?
Well I hope it is
I pray so
'Cause I'd really hate
Turning up lost one day
And all I ever wanted to know
Is that you would be okay without me
If you truly are then I'll be fine
But I still wonder
Is what you found
Giving all you hoped it would?
Is what you found
Sweeping the lies away?
Well I hope it is
I pray so
'Cause I'd really hate
Turning up lost one day
Yes I'd really hate
Turning up lost one day
Yes I'd really hate
Turning up lost one day

Don't Come Back
03:12
|
|||
|
You do what you can
To get what you want
But all you ever have
Is nothing
The sweetness of life
Her taste in your mouth
Still leaves you looking
For something
I lost my head
And found my mind
At the cost of
Leaving you behind
Enough's enough
Of these fairytale lies
And I'm sure that you'll be fine
Don't come back this time
Give me a reason
To hold on, to sit here
To die for you
And your freedom
Now don't you ask
Don't look at me
Your chance passed
Remarkably fast
I lost my head
And found my mind
At the cost of
Leaving you behind
Enough's enough
Of these fairytale lies
And I'm sure that you'll be fine
I lost my head
And found my mind
At the cost of
Leaving you behind
Enough's enough
Of these fairytale lies
And I'm sure that you'll be fine
Just don't come back this time

Ghost
03:00
|
|||
|
You look like you've seen a ghost
You look like it's me
I said I'd never go
You always said you'd leave
You tell me what matters most
You tell me it's not me
So I have become a ghost
And you a memory
You look like you've seen a ghost
You look like it's me
I said I'd never go
You always said you'd leave
You tell me what matters most
You tell me it's not me
So I have become a ghost
And you a memory

I Should Be Dying
02:29
|
|||
|
I guess I could be
In a worse situation
Than this one
If I think about it
Feels like I should be dying
Yet I'm still here
I can't explain
Just what I've lost
When nothing's missing
Yet I still see you
Disappearing
Out of mind
Gave me jar full of pennies
For my thoughts
I said you must be crazy
To think that
I've been well-acquainted
with the fact that
You were right when
You had said
The more things change
The more they tend
To stay the same
I know that now
I know that now
I guess I could be
In a worse situation
Than this one
If I think about it
Feels like I should be dying
Yet I'm still here
