- Afterglow
All of the black and white
All of the contours
Are laid out before me now
To leave a trace
With all of the light and shape
We take up our own space
I'll find my own way back
- Asking For A Friend
I don't want to say that I'm afraid to die
I'm no good at goodbyes, I can't apologise
And if I don't stop now will it follow me down?
I guess I have to try, it's the art of getting by
'Cause I sunk some ships with selfish lips
And it all came back to me
I was terrified, I never told them why
And the songs I wrote 'bout hearts I broke
- Bela Lugosi's
White on white translucent black capes
Back on the back
Bela Lugosi's dead
The bats have left the bell tower
The victims have been bled
Red velvet lines the black box
- Better If You Don't
Drinking to the things I can't take back
Thinking of the friends and faith I lack
And no one broke my heart quite like that man
It's better if you don't care but if you do
I won't follow you again
TV's on but facing at the wall
Can they tell I don't like me at all?
I'm never as alone as I am back home
- Bitter End
At twenty-four
I fell into the trap door
Threw a man overboard
As I swam for the shore
At twenty-five
I noticed red in my skies
Made a bed for his lies
In the whites of my eyes
- Bow Down
[Verse 1]
Hoping for the pin to drop
Cause I can't hold it all
Trying to correct the wrongs
Say when, say when
Better luck now that you're on your own
So don't just lie there
Hoping for the pin to drop
- Broken Bones
Catch them and kill them
You're only hope is evil
I will not die, I will keep quiet
I will hold you high above
You're on your own
Wait till dawn and then go
No help here from heaven
You're not as real as I am
- Bury It
Cover up, cover up, cover up that you're ruthless
Nobody, nobody, nobody's ever gonna notice
And I am catchin' up and I am seein' red
How about I prove I'm right and raise it overhead?
I never promised you anything I couldn't do
We tried to bury it and rise above, bury it and rise above
You, you, you never promised me you were seeing differently
- California
Waste a month, waste a year
Waste the time you could've been here
Count the debt, count the tears
Count the truths and all of my fears
I didn't want to be cynical
Passing place for the soul
You were never predictable
Now I need to let it go
- Clearest Blue
Light, it's all over us
Like it always was
Like it always was
Shape by the clearest blue
But it's not enough
It's not enough, not enough
- Cry Little Sister
Last fire will rise behind those eyes
Black house will rock, blind boys don't lie
Immortal fear, that voice so clear
Through broken walls, that scream I hear
Cry, little sister, thou shall not fall
Come to your brother, thou shall not die
Unchain me, sister, thou shall not fear
Love is with your brother, thou shall not kill
- Dead Air
I will never believe what they say
There is no strength in enduring
They never speak for themselves
We are disappearing
You will be all that I seek
In a twisted lie
I would live inside you
- Death Stranding
Let's make a toast to the damned
Waitin' for tomorrow
When we're played out by the band
Drowning out our sorrows
What will become of us now at the end of time?
We'll be fine, you and I
Let's draw a line in the sand
Keep it straight and narrow
- Do I Wanna Know
Have you got colour in your cheeks?
Do you ever get that fear that you can't shift
The type that sticks around like something in your teeth?
Are there some aces up your sleeve?
Have you no idea that you're in deep?
I dreamt about you nearly every night this week
How many secrets can you keep?
'Cause there's this tune I found that makes me think of you somehow and I play it on repeat
- Down Side Of Me
Maybe I
Tell you that it's no big deal
Maybe I can aim this high
Or maybe I could eat my words
You're not same, not the same, you're not the same
Not the same, you're not the same, not the same
You're not same, not the same
I believe, I believe
- Empty Threat
[Verse 1]
Draw a line in the sand
Like there's nothing to regret and nothing to prove
Set my sights high enough
So I see the turning tides are parting for you
[Chorus]
Taking back an empty threat
- Final Girl
Swallowing the seeds of sins we sewed into the ground
Keeping secrets until everything became a bit too loud
I could wash it down
I could drown it out
By filling up the silence with an organ sound
And by writing sentences I used to think were quite profound
And it feels like the weight is too much to carry
I should quit, maybe go get married
- Get Away
I can barely see you when I close my eyes
There's nothing left of you here
We had the time, we had the time
The things that we remember and do not regret
They don't mean a thing here
We had the time, we had the time
I'll be your guide
So you can see the other side
- God's Plan
You belong with me
I'm tracing a line
I'm tracing the lines of your hand
You collapse in threads
Show me inside, wasted and white
Black threat sound
You confide in me
Ashamed and alive
- Gun
You had better run from me
With everything you own
'Cause I am gonna come for you
With all that I have
I am gonna break you down
To tiny, tiny parts
I never believed but I see it now
- High Enough To Carry You Over
No more barricades, slowly diffusing
I'll be leaving now, nobody's losing
If you could play a part, stay in resistance
Every fault would fade into the distance
Run if you like
All of the things that you left behind
Hold me down
- Keep You On My Side
Everyone sees, but only I know
Nothing to lose, nothing to save to make a whole
What if I should make a loss?
Hold up both my hands, my fingers crossed
I don't sleep well, laying low
Never keepin' up, never lettin' go
What if I should look away?
- Killer
I lost myself
My mental health
Yeah
On a broken carousel
Spun down to hell
How far we fell
Maybe just as well
The stones we throw
- Leave A Trace
I gave up on time
Just like you said you would
There are tiny cracks of light underneath me
And you say I got it wrong
But I tried hard to uncover them
I have somehow got
Away with everything
- Lies
Faster, faster, you won't go far
Shouldn't leave, feeling faint, we both know why
You got to show me, both knees, cold I lie
Hold me, slowly, hide me, til I can fight
Always, we can sing, we can make time
Old songs, flood and flame, you could be mine
But you got to show me, both knees, skin and bone
- Lullabies
I've lost my appetite
Drinking the pesticide
Thinking that it's not a suicide if we act polite
Jesus Christ
I'm getting tired of the alibis
All the excuses and reasons why build inside my mind
No reply
I wish that I'd known ahead of time
- Lungs
How long till you leave it?
You should know that we're alone this time
Keep yourself a secret, you should know that
I will sell you a future you don't want
Like I did last time
I won't go slow
All the things you tell yourself
Offer no resolution
- Make Them Gold
Can you tell me what to have
And what to hold
If you never take the way
On your own
No one tells us what is hard
And what is fair
We will deliver once we know
Where to fall
- Never Ending Circles
Throw me
No more bones and I will tell you no lies
This time
At least I am not so cold
You give me everything I never deserved
This time
You know I'll leave
- Night Sky
I will carry you and give you life
I will cover you and show you the way
It's a sequence that you never learned
It's a lesson I will never forget
I can hear you in the overtones
Just an echo of the promise we made
Change the future, we can travel time
- Nightmares
I get the last word only because I write on the walls in my head
Maybe some things are better unsaid
To be left on the sheets of your bed
Can I forgive if I forget
All my mistakes and my regrets?
If all of this is for the best?
I've been singing that song again
Another ballad that won't make amends
- Now Is Not The Time
Vicious one how ever did you find me?
Time is wasted, words are cheap
Now it seems that we are not crazy
And lovers sow what lovers reap
Nothing now can ever come between us
As we hide and watch the city burn
There is much that I still want to tell you
- Playing Dead
No more excuses and no more playing dead
There are no silver linings in anything you said
If you keep on denying and I could stay away
We could hold up our hands, say we don't want it, we don't need it
If I give more than enough ground, will you claim it?
I will take it all in one breath and hold it down
And if I try to pretend that I don't hear it
- Recover
Carved earth, cold
Hiding from you in this skin, so old.
I'll come clean
Everywhere everyone knows it's me.
[Pre-Chorus:]
And if I recover, will you be my comfort?
Or it can be over, or we can just leave at here.
So pick any number, choose any color!
- Screaming
Am I the deer?
Am I the headlights?
I know that I can't slow down
Everything fractures in the light
And I stand by watching it turn
And we used to laugh
At the broken glass
I should probably paper over all the cracks
- Strong Hand
Why don't you tell me what do you need?
There is a blank page for you
Give me the bones of what you believe
Maybe they'll save you from me
Will I be the strong hand keeping you safe
Or will I break you in half?
And you will never be under my thumb
- The Mother We Share
Never took your side, never crossed your life
I keep my whip shut tight
Until you ca-a-a-a-a-a-ll
We come as far, as we ever could get
Until you realize that you should go-o-o-o-oh
Chorus:
I'm in misery where you can seem as old as your omens
- Under The Tide
I'm watching you run
Run from the sidelines
Take in a breath
Fill in your lungs
Keeping you alive
No fear
I'll be your eyes
I'll be a lifeline
- Violent Delights
Had a dream your father died
I couldn't scream
I couldn't cry
The second night, I dreamt you drowned
You couldn't fight
You were not found
These violent delights
Keep creeping into my nights
- We Sink
We are
I've come apart and you made me
Float like
A pretty box of your evil
So tired
So easy I
Bleed out
- You Caught The Light
I hear you when you call
There's a sign for her and everyone
And go on, but not with me
And let it all fall down
Let it all fall down
Sky is light
You caught the light
You carried mine
