You look in the mirror in the morning
A brand new line is like a warning
You’re going too fast
You pour your coffee in your mug
You sweep your problems under the rug
No questions asked
Another day is about to start
You get assigned a boring part
Not worth reading
You already know how the movie goes
Nothing there keeps you on your toes
The heart is barely beating
Go crazy running through the streets
go follow the sound of your own feet
And never say it’s too late A
You paint a smile on your face
It seems you’re always running late
Nothing new
Obsessive thoughts swirling in your brain
What’s to lose what’s to gain
need a change of view
Looking out over this scene
There is nothing left to dream
No castle in the clouds
You go running through your mind
To outrun the hands of time
There’s no way out
Go crazy running through the streets
go follow the sound of your own feet
Go crazy running through the streets
go follow the sound of your own feet
And never say it’s too late
And never say it’s too late
And never say it’s too late

There’s not enough time
to sit and stand still
you gotta work hard
Keep climbing uphill
Today is a feather
tomorrow’s a bird
yesterday’s gone
you’re left with no words
oh oh oh oh…
what do you owe to yourself?
Come on and get mad
the fire and the fury
you’re standing straight in front
of a merciless jury
Your shaky hands
pleading not guilty
you’re kicking you own heart
all over the city
oh oh oh oh…
what do you owe to yourself?
In the sky the birds look small
on the wire
they sit apart
From one another
To be free to fly away
oh oh oh oh…
what do you owe to yourself?
oh oh oh oh…
what do you owe to yourself?

Yesterday the sun was shining
but in my eyes the moon was rising
restless child,
moody dark and wild
Dreaming with my eyes wide open
trapped inside a bubble floating
the city's glow
sparkles down below
Try running but you're getting nowhere
Fly, in a dream you can do what you want
I was laughing I was hoping
my bare hands kept on holding
this golden heart
stolen from a star
Try running but you're getting nowhere
Fly, in a dream you can do what you want
Said my prayers, counted my blessings
the gentle ocean breeze caressing
my paper wings blown
far from what I know
Try running but you're getting nowhere
Fly, in a dream you can do what you want
Try running but you're getting nowhere
Fly, in a dream you can do what you want

Sugar Home

Who am I to break into your heart?
Who am I to tear your life apart?
In this lonely night when rain keeps pouring down down down
You’ll find me here
Wearing this crooked crown
Place your broken dreams inside my hand
Let these two kids be for ever friends
When the earthquake hits our little sugar home
We’ll kiss our fate and walk into the unknown
And we’ll fly
Above our doubts and failed attempts to die
Hold my hand and never let it go
Teach me words of love I’ll never know
Come and break the silence of these walls
Be my safety net next time I fall
And we’ll fly
Above our doubts and failed attempts to die
And we’ll fly
Above our doubts and failed attempts to die

Animal

I run as fast as I can
The road ahead smooth as silk
I locked the door and threw away the key
Oh it feels good being so free
I left without a plan
Distant lights white as milk
A chill runs down my spine
I thought I’d left it all behind
Oh the night’s so dark
Shining like a spark
begs me to go far
And I’ll answer the call
Yellow eyes stare though my soul`
The animal will lose control
Hiding in the velvet night
The animal is ready to fight
Oh the night’s so dark
Shining like a spark
begs me to go far
And I’ll answer the call
And I’ll answer the call
Once she grabs your soul
She’ll drag your poor heart down in the hole

Kiss you Goodbye
02:45
|

|
And here you go again
Walking away
The thing you do best
Kicking the air
Fussing around
With my heart in your fist.
Look into my eyes
There you will see
The things I cannot say
Then yet again
Just up and leave
It’s easier that way
oh how many times shall I kiss you goodbye before you go?
You can run away from
You can run away from
You can run away from me
Light one more cigarette
Take a long drag
Then blow it in my face
Wrestle my arm
Playing your charm
See how much I care
oh how many times shall I kiss you goodbye before you go?
How many times will you keep on trying to hit your low?
You can run away from
You can run away from
You can run away from me
You can run away from
You can run away from
You can run away every time you hear something you don’t wanna hear
You can run away from
You can run away from
You can run away from me

Breathe
03:37

Hiding from this crazy world
Once again you have been hurt
Bleeding from the inside out
Trapped in your own beliefs and doubts
Lying to your own sick face
There is not a chance for grace
Cursing to an unknown God
You stand before the firing squad
Breath, just breath
Breath just breath
Listen to the sound of wings
Just cut away all the strings
Get down on your shaky knees
You are free as you wish to be
Breath, just breath
Breath just breath
Breath the air
Just let go
Of your grip
Take it slow
Breath, just breath
Breath just breath
Breath, just breath
Breath just breath

Quiet Fight
03:01
|
|||
|
Another bridge another wall
another piece that falls
on the floor
You pick it up you look away
not knowing what to say
what to ask for
There are dreams trapped inside
all the things you haven’t tried
There’s a story wrapped around
every word that has no sound
Ooh Another quiet fight
won’t make it alright. Am C
Too many wrongs too many tears
our faith disappears in thin air
You say good bye you say no more
but you keep the score
you forget the prayer
And your feet lead the way
your concrete heart wants to stay
you search your pocket for a smile
that’ll make you go one more mile
Ooh Another quiet fight
won’t make it alright
Ooh Another quiet fight
won’t make it alright

Hold me and rock me in your arms
I am walking through endless storms
I’m so scared, so scared
God only knows so unprepared
I don’t wanna be strong anymore
I will give up pain and war
There’s nothing to lose ,nothing to gain
We all stand drenched in the same rain
Oh be kind
I’m just lost in my mind
Listen to me when I do make sense
Change my tired words to the future tense
Cause I’m so blind, so blind
all I can see lies behind me
Oh be kind
I’m just lost in my mind
Oh be kind
I’m just lost in my mind
Oh the sky turned violet.
Violet

Unconditional
03:04
|
|||
|
All quiet around
sitting in the dark
we don’t make a sound
our words left a mark
A bottle of wine
a cigarette or two
we are also intertwined
cast from the same mold
All the miles, all the miles, all the miles
made us lonely
you and I unconventional
This is yours and mine only
unconditional
The warmth of the night
wrapped around our shoulders
our past is out of sight
but it still smolders
All the miles, all the miles, all the miles
made us lonely
you and I unconventional
This is yours and mine only
unconditional
