Life, Love and Death

Please take me back there
Our souls were young and full of rage
Shit hit the ceiling
You know theres not a thing i'd change
Blackout nights and sleeping on the floor
Hes bleeding now and coming back for more
We revelled in the damage that we made
We still do in our own way
Sleep-in til early afternoon
Don't let the light in
Ride to the island on the lake
That started crumbling
The speakers shaking through my bones
Falling fast in love
With girls we didn't Know
Lust and adulation
Did you get tickets to the show?
Music in my veins
Pouring out your brothers door
Let me know I'm not alone
The feeling i get when i hear the tone
Of somebody else when they sing their pain
Please take me back there
Those memories about to fade
Just like your secrets
You know I'll take them to my grave
Blackout nights and sleeping on the floor
He's bleeding now and coming back for more
We revelled in the damage that we made
We still do in our own way
The friends we lost live on in our minds
You know we'll always have the old times
I always be on your side

Powerlines

This silence will be heard
This darkness will be seen
Do I show my misery?
It comes in three and shakes me up
Its pressure to my head
Girl, you know that you're my medicine
I hold on to the words you said
So lets fight intentions
Down into they break our seems
Until our hearts will scream out
Set me free
Can you go on like this?
Can we go on like this?
When will the light burn out?
And we're just fading lights
Flickering and blinking out
I need to feel your kiss
Take me down
On my back, on the pavement, under powerlines
Wishing they'd kill me
But i hold on to this life, Tenuously
Counting down the days, we know how it ends but we never change
(This day, this life could all end tonight)
(We take our chance to flee or to fight)
(But we all will fall and fade from the light)
(This day, this life could all end tonight)
I'd trade gold, for sleep right now
I'd trade my soul, for sleep right now
I'm tired of living in this memory
Set me free, now i am free from your light

Thick Skin
04:15

Face the morning face the drive
Through the glass become the lie
I know I've been like this before
Don't make it easy, anymore
Can we exist here for a while?
These days get lost in sound and light
You know I always play that song
And shut my eyes when you sing along
Face down, bottled up
Don't come down baby, its not enough
Help out when we can
They lie to our face
But you know that we'll still be here tomorrow
Raise a glass to the sorrow and drown our pain
We got thick skin, baby
Is that enough to get us through?
And while we wait for something better
I know deep down it won't get better
So what are we to do
Face down, bottled up
Don't come down baby its not enough
Help out when we can
They lie to our face
But you know that we'll still be here tomorrow
Raise a glass to the sorrow and drown our pain
We got thick skin, baby
Is it enough to get us through?
Its not where we thought we'd be by now
So apathetic and tired
If we could keep just a tiny part
Of this alive inside of us
We got thick skin, baby now

Nostalgia

A sentimental longing for the past
So take my hand now
And just stand there while i burn out
Never thought I'd get to watch you cry (never thought)
I would be left behind
So you wanted to be free
So you shattered me when i was seventeen
Did it happen for you easily?
Thank you for going through this hell with me
Found out the hard way and so effortlessly
You didn't have to let me in
Your silence told me everything
(You didn't have to let me in, your silence told me everything)
I tried, i tried, tried everything
But we were just kids, we were just kids
Outside on your driveway
Laying in my car beside me
You said i took your innocence away from you
(You said you wanted me to)
(You said you wanted me to)
(You said you wanted me to)
(I swear you wanted me to)
A sentimental longing for the past
Both knew this would never last
I hope you remember me, how much you meant to me
And i hope you hear this
You were only a kid
I was a kid in love
Then I starved
Thank you, Nostalgia

On My Own

How can we stop when we never got started?
How can i not be burned by your laser beam eyes?
You got me in your sights
Then you leave me there to die
Girl you got me
On my own
But not free
The second time around
But I still get burned the same
We were not designed to follow such a straight line
It always seems to hurt the most
When life turns love into a ghost
Dont speak her name
On my own
But not free
The second time around
But i still get burned the same
You burn me
In this garden of my heart
The light has turned to dark
And i can't let you grow here no more
It has taken years
To overcome the pain and fear
And i won't mess this up
No i won't fuck this up
And i won't take the bait
Even though I'm dreaming of your face
And even though the light,
that's burning through your eyes,
Is begging me to fall down by your side
Keep your hands off my screaming heart now
It's clawing at my chest
Keep your hands off my screaming heart now

Take Me Over
05:49

Completely different minds
Tangled in together in this life
And its calls me out of this comfort I'm keeping
You're brilliantly disguised
A melody of colours and hungry eyes
You're testing my character
You tearing down the walls
of my hard earned, piece of mind
But i like this, yes, i like you
Pour myself another
Pour myself into a glass
and you pick me up
You drink me down
Oh you won't let go
You take me over
But i like this, yes, i like you
Oh you won't let me go
You take me over
You take me over
