I'll Float On

Far away from here
I’ll float on.
It won’t feel like I’ve left you
But I’ll be gone.
Can’t help myselft. I’ve got to fly
Can’t hang on. Move along.
I’ll be soaring by
Far away from you
I’ll float on.
It won’t feel like I’ve left you
But I’ll be gone.
Can’t help myselft. I’ve got to fly
Can’t hang on. Move along.
I’ll be soaring by.
I feel I could suffocate under the weight of it all.
Don’t hesitate. No need to brace for the fall.
Levitate and separate yourself from it all.
No matter how, do it now.
You’ve got to find a way out.
Can’t help myself. I’ve got to fly
Can’t hang on. Move along.
I’ll be soaring by.

Waiting on the Sun
03:37
|

|
I’m tired. It’s late.
This city’s cold and grey under the night.
Building’s old that nudge against the sky lit bright.
No control. My head is light. I hit the floor. I don’t feel all right.
Spinning world through bloodshot eyes. Hit the floor. I don’t feel alive.
Waiting on the Sun to come around.
Hold me now and lift me off the ground.
Waiting on the Sun to come around.
Hold me now and lift me off the ground.
Am I still alive?
How can I make it through another night?
No control. My head is light. I hit the floor. I don’t feel all right.
Spinning world through bloodshot eyes. Hit the floor. I don’t feel alive.
Waiting on the Sun to come around.
Hold me now and lift me off the ground.
Waiting on the Sun to come around.
Hold me now and lift me off the ground.
Bitter Thoughts as lovers watch me
Wondering if I’ll take the plunge.
Bitter thoughts that leave me
Wondering how the water’d fill my lungs
No I know. Yeah, I know this night will end and I’ll be fine.
Yeah, I know I’ll be fine if I can make it through the night.
Waiting on the Sun to come around.
Hold me now and lift me off the ground.
Waiting on the Sun to come around.
Hold me now and lift me off the ground.

Up for Air
04:07

Come up for air.
Calm it down. You’re felling scared.
You found yourself alone. Impaired.
The people round you stop and stare
But you don’t mind. No, you don’t care.
You’re gaining speed, but going nowhere.
You’re workin’ all the time.
Never home at night.
Walking round the streets to kill some time.
Passing all the cars.
All the empty bars.
Wondering where you’ve found yourself tonight.
Down another road
Bathed in orange glow.
Hope your feet can lead you back on home.
And you’ll cary on.
Oh no. Carry on.
You can’t read through blurry eyes.
Don’t need them after Midnight.
The air is cold. Your lungs feel tight.
You’re workin’ all the time.
Never home at night.
Walking round the streets to kill some time.
Passing all the cars.
All the empty bars.
Wondering where you’ve found yourself tonight.
Down another road
Bathed in orange glow.
Hope your feet can lead you back on home.
And you’ll cary on.
Oh no. Carry on.
Daylight is breaking and you are on your own.
Daylight is breaking and you are on your own.
Daylight is breaking and you are on your own.
You’re workin’ all the time.
Never home at night.
Walking round the streets to kill some time.
Passing all the cars.
All the empty bars.
Wondering where you’ve found yourself tonight.
Down another road
Bathed in orange glow.
Hope your feet can lead you back on home.
And you’ll carry on.
Oh no. Carry on.
Oh no. Carry on.
Oh no. Carry on.

Like a Drum
05:23
|

Bass breaking through the subs.
Loud enough to blow your eardrums.
Can’t help but feel the love.
All around the room like the lights above.
Wade in deep through the crowd.
Wrapped up in haze that’s thick as a cloud.
Can’t help but feel the love
All around the room like the lights up above.
You are wrapped up inside my arms.
You are wrapped up inside my arms.
Our hearts beating like a drum.
Our hearts beating like a drum.
Our hearts beating like a drum.
Our hearts beating like a drum.
We’re stomping our feet on the ground.
Careful or we’ll bring the whole place down.
Sweat pouring off our brows.
The room keeps spinning around and around.
Our hearts beating like a drum.
Our hearts beating like a drum.
Our hearts beating like a drum.
Our hearts beating like a drum.
Pounding drums ringing steadfast in our ears.
A thousand suns washing over us.
A million people fading into the background.
Just you and me and a sea of music and love.
Our hearts beating like a drum.
Our hearts beating like a drum.
Our hearts beating like a drum.
Our hearts beating like a drum.

All Your Lies
03:06
|
|||
|
Out here
In the world you disappear
In a crowded room
You feel consumed
And it’s so
Loud here
And there’s no one you can
Recognize in sight.
Hold on tight.
All the paint smeared
On the walls to
Hide the years now lost in time
And all that grime
And you are
Stuck here.
Paralyzed with fear.
They can see right through you.
See right through you.
See right
Through you
And all your lies.
Something deep inside
Is screaming out fight or flight
If you leave this place
You could save some face
Just
Run out that open door
Again like you’ve done before
If you lift your shoes off the floor
And move
Just
Breath in and out
You’re fine.
It’s all just a trick of the mind.
They can see right through you
See right though you.
See right
Through you
And all your lies.
Breath in and out
You’re fine.
It’s all just a trick of the mind.
They can see right through you
See right though you.
See right
Breath in and out
You’re fine.
It’s all just a trick of the mind.
They can see right through you
See right though you.
See right
Breath in and out
You’re fine.
It’s all just a trick of the mind.
They can see right through you
See right though you.
See right...

Don't Give Up
03:41

It started long ago.
Feeling lost and all alone.
It’s hard enough to feel natural.
A beating heart that never really slows.
Don’t give up. They would love to watch us fade out.
Sending love. Words to help you through the dark.
Don’t give up. They would love to watch you fade out.
Kill the lies now and listen to our hearts.
Static on the radio.
Another year another home.
It’s hard enough to feel natural
And now we’re here a place we barely know.
Don’t give up. They would love to watch us fade out.
Sending love. Words to help you through the dark.
Don’t give up. They would love to watch you fade out.
Kill the lies now and listen to our hearts.
Hit the coast. Standing close, our naked feet below the tide.
We’re so close, I can see the stars reflecting off your eyes.
Your eyes
Your eyes
We’ll be alright.
Your eyes
Your eyes
We’ll be alright.
Don’t give up. They would love to watch us fade out.
Sending love. Words to help you through the dark.
Don’t give up. They would love to watch you fade out.
Kill the lies now and listen to our hearts.

Weights and Stones
He’s walking out. It’s all right.
Holding on till midnight.
He’s waiting for a quick ride.
He stumbles out in a cold night.
His whole body shakes and moans.
Held down by weights and stones.
Wade through the snow and make it on home.
This beat’s got you feeling all right.
Weights. Stones.
Pulling you down.
Weights. Stones.
Holding you down.
She’s walking out. It’s all right/
Holding on; it’s midnight.
She’s waiting for the right time.
She stumbles out in a cold night.
Her whole body shakes and moans.
Held down by weights and stones.
Wade through the snow and let it all go.
This beat’s got you feeling all right.
Weights. Stones.
Pulling you down.
Weights. Stones.
Holding you down.

Fade On
03:07

Seems like something’s wrong here.
I can’t feel my fingertips.
Grabbing on with no fear.
Taking off like rocketships.
Hands raised to the sky.
God, I feel alive.
Oh yeah!
Holding on to pavement.
Brushing off a cold sweat.
Catching on to your scent.
Spin me round your fingertips.
Oh God. Hold on to the fading night
With our faded minds.
Raise up.
Fade on.
Holding out for no one else. Only us.
We’ve been called out of touch.
We’re all begging for the rush.
Got to keep on moving.
Dance until the morning hits.
All a sea of movement.
Kisses, tongues, and open lips.
Strung out but you can’t stop now.
No, you won’t fall down.
No, you ask for more.
Raise up.
Fade on.
Holding out for no one else. Only us.
We’ve been called out of touch.
We’re all begging for the rush.
I can taste your stale sweat.
Vodka base and cigarettes.
Speakers loud as jumbo jets.
Phantom sounds and silhouettes.
Raise your hands up high.
Raise your hands up high.
Raise up.
Fade on.
Holding out for no one else. Only us.
We’ve been called out of touch.
We’re all begging for the rush.

Always Losing
Who knows where it came from?
Who knows what will happen
He hits right above the lung
Now you’re filling up with blood
Your breathing shallows
He hits right above the lung
Now you’re filling up with blood
You’re always losing.
You can’t stop the flood
You landed with a thud
You can’t stop the flood
It started with a gun. Oh!
You can not stop the flood
No, you can’t stop the flood
You’re always losing.
Always.
He hits right above the lung
You’re filling up with blood
Your breathing shallows
He hits right above the lung
Now you’re filling up with blood
You’re always losing.
Always.

Carry On

You try to blur the lines.
Black and white.
Wait in line.
We’ll call you when it’s time.
No one calls for weeks.
Begging for some sleep.
Loathing all the sheep
Who coronated war.
Howling “Crooks run amok!”
Billy clubs rain down.
They do not speak for us
Waiting till the hammer drops.
Carry on eyes wide.
Carry on eyes wide
Carry on eyes wide
Carry on eyes wide
Carry on eyes wide
They do not speak for us.
Carry on eyes wide.
Carry on eyes wide
Carry on eyes wide
They do not speak for us.

Monsters
03:53
|

Cold and lonely
It’s always the same
Rubber bags closed
Blood on the floor
Filled with hate and rage they had to lash out
Cold and lonely
It’s always the same
I’m right and you’re wrong
And you don’t belong
Monsters made of fear and hatred spilled out
Stolen all the other days
Away from those you hate
And now, they’re silent
You wasted all they were
There fire. You fired
So be everything you are
You monster
You fired
Start it over again
Start it over again
Cold and lonely
They ghosts that remain
We weep and we morn
Again and again
What makes it worse is that it never seems to end
Stolen all the other days
Away from those you hate
And now, they’re silent
You wasted all they were
There fire. You fired
So be everything you are
You monster
You fired
Start it over again
Start it over again
You fired and fired.
You fired and fired.

Like an Ocean

Closing time. He thinks he’s fine.
He spits and swears
There’s nobody there
But somebody let you out.o
Drunk and wild. A broken smile
His arm goes slack
A small heart attack
He stumbles and crumbles.
Fear crashing over
Like an ocean.
Sweat, dark oblivion.
There’s no light. No brilliant white.
He’s anxious for the flash of his life
But nothing comes flashing by
Something grates across his chest
Electric pulse. Enough there to raise the dead.
Is this death though?
Fear crashing over
Like an ocean.
Sweat, dark oblivion.
He screams out
Don’t bring me back
Just leave me here
Don’t bring me back
Don’t pull me out of the black
I’ve come to accept this feeling of death
This body I’ve left
I feel warm
In control
No more fear washing over
Like an ocean.
Sweet, dark oblivion.

Under the Weight
03:36

I was there
To watch it all get swept beneath the waves
Watch it all get swept beneath the waves.
When I looked at you
All you did was turn and walk away.
All you did was turn and walk away.
Cause...
It was all so fast.
The water came and tore up all the trees.
It broke all of the roots and left the leaves.
It left a path
To bring the things back out to Sea.
It wiped away the earth and left it clean.
And there was nothing we could do
But watch the world circle down the drain.
No, there was nothing we could do
But hold our breaths before we sank
Under the weight.
Under the weight of it all.
So grab hold and don’t let go.
Grab hold and don’t let go.
We were there
To watch it all get swept beneath the waves.
Watch it all get swept beneath the waves.
And there was nothing we could do
But watch the world circle down the drain.
No, there was nothing we could do
But hold our breaths before we sank.
Under the weight
Under the weight of it all
