“The Night We Met” lyrics:
Looking down from the balcony seating
So loud he can't hear the beating
Of his heart so he buys a drink or two
She walks in and quickly he finds words
He says hey babe I admire ya
She said it works for me if it works for you
And I don't mind if we stay here
You're my outcast and I am yours
Hey Hey What do you say
We may be bent but we won't break
We weren't meant to throw away
No no not you and I
Oh no I don't mind
If you tap your feet all out of time
Cause the night we met the stars aligned
And the pieces fit just right
They spent the night sneaking awkward glances
While the band played local dances
Eventually he found her hand in his
Don't know where their path is leading
or which steps they'll end up repeating
But hey there's nothing wrong with a little love tonight
Hey Hey What do you say
We may be bent but we won't break
We weren't meant to throw away
Oh no not you and I
Oh no I don't mind
If you tap your feet all out of time
Cause the night we met the stars aligned
And the pieces fit just right
I don't mind if we stay here
On the isle of misfit toys
and I don't care if we're freezing honey
You're my outcast, I am yours
Yours I am yours
Hey Hey What do you say
We may be bent but we won't break
We weren't meant to throw away
Oh no not you and I
Oh no I don't mind
If you tap your feet all out of time
Cause the night we met the stars aligned
And the pieces fit just right
“Hey My Love” lyrics:
I never could
I never would
lose sight of you
and all the ways
you took my breathe away
I made mistakes
I made them twice
in spite of me
no grace was lost
and it’s all because of you
Hey my love
I’m not going home
without my name
to call your own
when I’m by your side
I will take away the doubt
on your mind
I always knew
I had to prove
I could shleter you
through broken times
you were always mine to lose
I trip and fall
I dropped the ball
It slipped through my hands
I will change the way I’m made
and I wil stand
Hey my love
I’m not going home
without my name
to call your own
when I’m by your side
I will take away the doubt
on your mind
Hey my love
I’m not going home
without my name
to call your own
when I’m by your side
I will take away the fear
take away the doubt
on your mind
I sent a letter to your house
Saying that I’m so much better
Without you and all my doubts
About you and this weather
It’s coming to you
I thought about those good old days
We were free as a feather
We took that city on and lost
She took it all and I let her
It’s coming to you
And you don’t have a clue
What’s really going on it seems
Can you leave me out of this?
Because I’d rather not
No, leave me out of this tonight
Can you leave me out of this?
Because I’ve had enough of you and
Your ordinary lies, goodbye
Every night I tossed and turned
Tried to forget your madness
Pulled the sheets over my head
But now I know it was your mess
It’s coming to you
And you don’t have a clue
What’s really going on it seems
Can you leave me out of this?
Because I’d rather not
No, leave me out of this tonight
Can you leave me out of this?
Because I’ve had enough of you and
Your ordinary lies, goodbye
It’s coming to you
It’s caught up to you
And you don’t have a clue
What’s really going on it seems
Can you leave me out of this?
Because I’d rather not
No, leave me out of this tonight
Can you leave me out of this?
Because I’ve had enough of you and
Your ordinary lies
Leave me out of this, goodbye
And all your ordinary lies
Goodbye
I’m not sorry for, forgetting you
It’s been harder on me than anyone
did I wait too long, to say this now
you rained on the only light you’d given me
if I wanted to, forsake your trust
would I call you to my side again
give you everything
beyond my means
the weight of you on my mind is killing me
there’s nothing left for me
I gave you the world
gave you the world
and I’m sorry it wasn’t enough
gave you the world
gave you the world
and I’m sorry it wasn’t enough
yeah, nothing was ever enough
I know you better then, you know yourself
I can’t carry your whole life for you
I’m tired and can speak no more
I gave up on this fight, it’s killing me
there’s nothing left for me
I gave you the world
gave you the world
and I’m sorry it wasn’t enough
gave you the world
gave you the world
and I’m sorry it wasn’t enough
yeah nothing was ever enough
the light you’d given me
the light you gave me is gone
the light you’d given
the light you’d given
the light you’d given me
I gave you the world
gave you the world
and I’m sorry it wasn’t enough
gave you the world
gave you the world
and I’m sorry it wasn’t enough
yeah nothing was ever enough
yeah nothing was ever enough
Everything I do
Everything I say I mean it
All the things you touch
turn right into dust, I swear
And you still think that you should be forgiven
This moment is mine
This moment is mine
And not for you
Gonna lay it on the line
This moment is mine
And not for you
Whoa’s
Everything you did to everything I love
I feel it
Your second nature shows
A feeling when you start to cry
And you still think that you should be forgiven
And you still think that I could still forget
This moment is mine
This moment is mine
And not for you
Gonna lay it on the line
This moment is mine
And not for you
And all the troubles we went through
There’s not much left for us to do
You know that it’s true…
Yeah Yeah Yeah
Yeah Yeah Yeah
This moment is mine
This moment is mine
And not for you
Gonna lay it on the line
This moment is mine
And not for you
Whoa Whoa Whoa
Not for you…
Whoa Whoa Whoa
Not for you…
Whoa Whoa Whoa
Not for you…
Whoa Whoa Whoa
This winding road could take me home
I wish it would but that’s not the plan girl
The West coast is me alone, and it couldn’t be further
from everything I know
I’m gone, but I can’t let it go
I get sick of the Ocean
I get sick of the truth
I’ve been trying to fight it but I
I’m sick of missing you.
The last time, that we spoke
I wanted to tell you I’m going for broke girl
Had I known, we’re so close to get it together
I wouldn’t have let go.
I’m gone, but I can’t let it Go.
I get sick of the Ocean
I get sick of the truth
I’ve been trying to fight it but I
I’m sick of missing you.
This home sick heart it can only age me
I’m losing my mind
I’m sick of all this useless waiting
I’m counting the time
I get sick of the Ocean
I get sick of the truth
I’ve been trying to fight it but I
I’m sick of missing you.
Hear Me Out
We won’t have a chance to stay
I don’t wanna be alone
That’s enough talk now come my way
I don’t wanna wait
If I fall, if I fly
I could be there in a minute
If I call ya, will you try to help me?
I want you now to hear me out
We’re safe and sound
I need you now to feel it
I’m lost, not found
Without you…
We won’t have a chance to wait
The train is leaving
Don’t feel the freight of yesterday
It doesn’t mean a thing
If I fall, or if I fly
I could be there in a minute
If I call ya, will you try to help me?
I want you now to hear me out
We’re safe and sound
I need you now to feel it
I’m lost, not found
Without you…
Hear me out
Oh…
Hear me out
Again
Hear me out
(Safe and sound)
I want you now to hear me out
We’re safe and sound
Hear me out
Oh
Hear me out
Oh
Hear me out
Give Up Give In
I’m sure Ill find a way
To Let you in….
Does Anyone, Hear me out there
Can Anyone, tell me how to feel
to get my heart believing
Give Up, Give In
I’m sure I’ll find a way to let you in
Daylight is breaking
The fire is pouring in.
It warms my skin
Does Anyone, Hear me out there
Can Anyone, Point Me Home again
Cuz I’ve begun to wander.
Give Up, Give In
I’m sure I’ll find a way to let you in
Daylight is breaking
The fire is pouring in.
It warms my skin
Give Up, Give In
I’m sure I’ll find a way to let you in
Daylight is breaking
The fire is pouring in.
It warms my skin
I’m far away now
don’t even care
my thoughts escape me some
as you brush aside your hair
No Im not broken
because Im all there
and I see it clearer now
than I ever did
The Wave it comes
To wash away my fear
Away It goes
til the water disappears
I’m wide awake for hours
I don’t sleep in bed
Don’t close my eyes for long
heard everything you said
Im near I’ve chosen love
to be my end
To know its good for now
will let me catch my breath
The Wave it comes
To wash away my fear
Away It goes
til the water disappears, disappears
I won’t let you go , never ever
in the under tow, never ever
No I won’t let you go, never ever
The Wave Comes
The Wave Comes
The Wave it comes
To wash away my fear
Away It goes
til the water disappears, disappears
pass the bottle, won’t you leave me some
im trying to drown the sounds of guns away
I need to drink some more today
I think to myself about what went wrong
about what Id do, so I wouldn’t long for you
lying on the roof deck in the sun
Im down won’t you save me
I need to change my yesterday
I’m down won’t you save me
Cold Coffee and Dirty Hotel Scenery
I think she’d forgotten dirty hotel scenery
broken ashtray
dont worry your pretty face for me
dont worry your pretty face for me
What became of the man we knew
Im just a nightmare that I, I wake into
I need to sleep some more today
I won’t believe it the voice in my head
that in a way, im better off dead my friends
lying on the roof deck in the sun
Im down won’t you save me
I need to change my yesterday
I’m down won’t you save me
Cold Coffee and Dirty Hotel Scenery
I think she’d forgotten dirty hotel scenery
broken ashtray
dont worry your pretty face for me
dont worry your pretty face for me
is that her asking me questions
is that her calling my name
is that her thinking its over
is that her, going insane
Cold Coffee and Dirty Hotel Scenery
I think she’d forgotten dirty hotel scenery
broken ashtray
don’t worry your pretty face for me
don’t worry your pretty face for me
I saw you die
Scenery
right before in front of my eyes
Scenery
Scenery, Dirty Hotel
Scenery
What are you waiting for
this is the time
to separate once more
and draw the line
and I know theres something wrong
behind your smile
the distance to your door
it goes for miles
Its alright, Im ok
but the brightest lights, the brightest lights
oh they make you fade away
away, away
trapped under her touch
in a living movie and theres no words left to say
If I try to figure it out
the gears inside
is there any logic in there
that I can find
I cant belong to this
or Ill lose my mind
there’d be no stopping us
if you’d ever fight
Its alright, Im ok
but the brightest lights, the brightest lights
they only make you fade away
away, away
trapped under her touch
a living movie and there’s no words left to say.
In hindsight, I must say
that the deepest lies, the bluest eyes
oh they bring a shade of gray
of grey of grey
a broken color it runs right through you
and I know you’ll never change
Change
please change
please change
from gray
In hindsight, I must say
that the deepest lies, the bluest eyes
oh they bring a shade of grey
of grey. of grey
a broken color it runs right through you
and I know you’ll never change
Change
please change
please change
from gray
Im a man you say
won’t you spell it out for me
cuz I’ve long forgotten
you demand from me
everything you deserve
but don’t tell me that its over….
Its a long way down
but every time we touch
it makes us found
and its the long way around
the emptiness we feel
is distant now.
you prepare for me
a story to show the hurt
I feel the cold its numbing
read the plan slowly
enunciate every word
but tell the rest upon my shoulder.
that time is over
cuz my mind is sober
that time is over
Its a long way down
but every time we touch
it makes us found
and its the long way around
the emptiness we feel
is distant now.
I Couldn’t Face it there for much longer
before if I talked myself out of the rain
call me different oblivious even wrong you know you even called me insane.
but nobody else could have got your heart
or kissed the right part of your face
and Ill play it off with melodic charm
the words I ‘d lost are now in place
I’ve been waiting a long time to show you how
while you were wandering underneath a cloud
beneath the ground
I will be asking for you again
even when you said its out of the question
you’ll come back around
i won’t be telling you its the end
to think I’m pretty quick to just give in
but sometimes i’m right
Felt so good to get back where we started
even talked about changing your name
we’ve already been through this story
should’ve known it would end this way*
its another fight on a perfect night
our two hearts went astray
we tried so hard , but it fell apart
all thats left is who to blame
we’ve been here for too long now
do you have no shame
but when you smile right at me I cant stay I cant stay away
I will be asking for you again
even when you said its out of the question
you’ll come back around
i won’t be telling you its the end
i think I’m pretty quick to decision
but sometimes i’m right
she said she wants it
just not from me
you can take it out
on the street
then when you fall down
id have to leave
you don’t think you know me
finally agree
she said she wants it
just not from me
i feel the air between us tighten up and bleed
i know you’ll take it
so casually
your grace and pretty face no effect on me
you ll leave without your clothes and walk with what you know
its enough to be afraid unwillingly
she said she wants it
its just not for me
i feel the air between us tighten up and bleed
i wish Id forgotten what i believed
you can try and try and lie but I won’t concede
You cant take enough from me today
left me here in front of her
standing in the rain.
is it enough for you to have your way
i reckon no its not
you want blood
is that what you want blood.
Give it back to me in my hands yeah
give it back to me again
give it back to me in my hands
give it back to me again
I’m giving it all I can
You’re asking me to never understand
but you’re You’re pissing it al away
don’t you know I’ll never go away, no
Used to be such a pretty girl
illuminated everything you
touched in the world
that day it all went away
right there from the start
you want blood
is that what you want…
I’m giving it all I can
You’re asking me to never understand
but you’re You’re giving it al away
don’t you know I’ll never be that way
I’m giving it all can
I’m giving it all can, to you
I’m giving it all can, you will take
i gave it all I got
don’t you ever
want something more for yourself
more than what you’ve got
a fool now and for so long
in the end what have you lost
i dare you to say
i won’t go on this way
I won’t go on this way (high)
your backwards in thinking
awkwardly covering ground
through mud in the sand
I see now you’re crying
tears running down your face
you say they’re not yours
Ill ask a question
can you stand on your own feet
I dare you to say
I won’t go on this way
I won’t go on this way-(high)
Cuz the way you want it
is the way he’ll never be
don’t you see that
he’s all made of pain
but you tried any-way
its the wrong day i know
but show me
show me a little smile
like i know you can
like I know you should
show me
just for a little while
smile
remind me
show me a little smile
caught you laughing upstairs at the door
i know in time your bound to become more
(just like everyone said you would)
the way i see it you’ve gone away for the last time. last time.
turn on the radio
its nothing but blue skies
the song thats plating now
its pretty, pretty like your smile……
wake up
I won’t be there no more
i won’t pretend to lie
its alright
your face hit-ing the floor
get up and fly again
see you rising upwards from your core
explaining ’til your voice is ripped & tore
the way I see it you’ve gone too far for the last time last time
turn on the radio
its nothing but blue skies
the song thats plating now
its pretty, pretty like your smile……
wake up I won’t be there no more
i won’t be pretend to lie
its alright your face hitting the floor
get up and try it again
i know its honesty and pride
you won’t be letting that go
with out a crutch perched at your side
get up and try it again
wake up I won’t be there no more
i won’t be pretend its right
I’m beggin’ you to reconsider
whats on your mind all the time
a demon a sign on your back
one way or more.
keeping you unaware that
seeing you just won’t care
enough to feel some pain
all the days ’til the end of time
that dark will find
a way to make you fall
and put cracks upon your wall.
All I ask is for open eyes
that you won’t run blind
you’re beating heart won’t care
when you’re empty cold and bare
souls you choose should never wither
they’re by your side through the fight
they won’t thieve you or care
when your beauties gone, they’ll never weep
beat you into despair
leave you in disrepair
goodbye is all they say
all the days ’til the end of time
that dark will find
a way to make you fall
and put cracks upon your wall.
All I ask is for open eyes
that you won’t run blind
you’re beating heart won’t care
when you’re left empty and bare
****SOLO***
find a space you can fall inside
you can always hide
away from their mistrust
in a moment you can cut
MAYBE
life will pass not before your mind
and your thoughts despise
the foolishness and guilt
we’re not always what we’ve built
I won’t deny
the second thoughts upon i base my mind
and so it goes
i cant describe the tragedy by
which defined your life
away we go
to me it echoes through my mind
to you its emptiness man
just wait for tomorrow
is what they said to me
how i miss your company
you’re not strange not to follow
the lyrics and melody
you’ll feel it again
As a child
our mothers call to us we ride outside
it was another world
a simple turn and decisions
make them selves
we rarely learn
just wait for tomorrow
is what they said to me
how i miss your company
you’re not strange not to follow
the lyrics and melody
you’ll feel it again
brother i know its hard on you
i know you can
see eye to eye with everything
you’ll feel again
you’ll feel ok with what your dealt
i know you can.
in a blind world they did find you
covered up barely alive
you can ask them any question
given time they will reply
let it go
it will soon arrive
you don’t know
what is wrong or right..any more
i saw you standing
there in the light
an empty soul an empty mind
reality moving by your head
watching the world glow and then cover in red
i saw you standing there
in the sun
waiting for a war to become undone
a bit too late for your regrets now
now hit the ground
you were quiet softly spoken
kept your hands along your sides
your new doctrine new behavior
take a life or lose your pride
another day is what you pray to see
always dreaming of new ways
you can hurt the world around you
as it splits and frays
Hit the ground
time is running on out
running on out
running on out…
I can always count on something
to come and pull me through
through the maze I’ve made for me for you
and I’m staring at the ceiling hoping theres something to see
but broken glass is cutting me
how are you near me
when you’re far away
how can you save me when you run away
Ill never know
these things you don’t believe me
but I swear that they’re all true
some time has made me me black and blue
but I’m hoping and believing that tomorrow this way comes
the things we’ve always been counted on
how can you hear me
running down to you
how can you touch me
in the way you do
I’ll never know
i’ll never know
You’re the only person
You’re the only person
You’re the one I’ll never know
Don’t you know ill never know
And you’re sleeping with music
you’d rather turn out the light
cuz somethings wrong with what your doing
every single night
and you’ll turn on the tv
later bask in its glow
theres nothing on that will make you happy
so you might as well go
its ironic and I don’t care
you’re still on it and I’m aware
you cant stop it you’ll go nowhere / it’s so unfair
I cant stop it no more no more no more
And your sleeping with music
you’d rather turn out the light
don’t you think its enough to go on
this long with a care
