Where You Are Now
03:42
|
|||
In the heat of a moment
when you lost your way
And the future looks broken
but there's no other way
Through the sinking light of day
And the people around you
say, "Come what may."
And they sing Hallelujah
and seize the day
The time just flies away
I was right where you are now
I was right where you are
I was right where you are now
You're making them nervous
You don't say enough
And your constant observing
you might see too much
If they can't read your mind, you're done
So just sit on your fingers
and breathe in a bag
Just take what they give you
and don't react
And when the bomb goes off, relax
I was right where you are now
I was right where you are
I was right where you are now
Let me tell you my secret:
This is not the end
I've been where you are
and I'll be back again
There will always be somebody here to listen
I was right where you are now
I was right where you are
I was right where you are now

Falling Dream
04:02
|
|||
The heart is all that's left
One thing still to protect
She's whispering, "just how close can I get?"
One word and I give up
One kiss and that's enough
The door's unlocked, take anything you want
I step to the edge; You know what I see?
All that I missed in the 90s
Nothing is quite what it seems
Wake me from this falling dream
'Cause I know how it ends between you and me
Gravity wins and I'm history
Nothing is quite what it seems
Wake me from this falling dream
I circled it twice now I know how it works
The good ones get better and the bad ones get worse
The more I ignore it the deeper it hurts
Keep my head in the clouds and my hands in the dirt
Can we just start over again?
Give me a chance to resist
You be the trophy and I'll be the hunter instead
I step to the edge; You know what I see?
All that I missed in the 90s
Nothing is quite what it seems
Wake me from this falling dream
'Cause I know how it ends between you and me
Gravity wins and I'm history
Nothing is quite what it seems
Wake me from this falling dream
I know how it ends - know how it ends
I step to the edge; You know what I see?
All that I missed in the 90s
Nothing is quite what it seems
Wake me from this falling dream
Yeah- you wanna know how it ends? Predictably.
The good guy wins, and it's not me
Nothing is quite what it seems
Wake me from this falling dream

Piece of Me
03:25
|
|||
While you look for how to leave, I'll be trying to stay
'Cause I keep falling more in love while you're walking away
Moving on, rising up,
Good for you and bad for us
Gloves are off, knives are out
And I can't get enough
Tell the truth, tell a lie,
Cross your heart and hope to die
I'll forgive you every time
Can you see it in my eyes?
I love everything that you do
Will you love a piece of me too?
I love everything that you do
Will you love a piece of my heart when it breaks it two?
Half of me was always meant for you
You get better every day, and I just stay the same
Moving on, rising up,
Good for you and bad for us
Gloves are off, knives are out
And I can't get enough
Tell the truth, tell a lie,
Cross your heart and hope to die
I'll forgive you every time
Can you see it in my eyes?
It's yours to decide
If you wanted to
If you want it
It doesn't matter what you put me through
I love everything that you do
I love everything that you do
Will you love a piece of me too?

Until You Leave
04:57
|
|||
Cover it up, block the sun
Sweep my hopes and dreams under the rug
Because there are things I knew for sure
In tiny pieces all over the floor
It's what you do when I try to ignore
Who the drone is and who's in control
Here's what I've got, use it up
The hand doesn't care what the hammer wants
It's my head against the wall
Before I start to understand at all
It's what you do when I try to ignore
Who's in love and who just plays along
I will never understand what you want with me
But I can never love again until you leave
I changed your name into silence
Sleep to dream, and peace to violence
My ball and chain on a shrinking island
The water's rising, there's not much time left
It's what you do when I try to decide if
Leaving you is a thing that's worth trying
I will never understand what you want with me
But I can never love again until you leave
How long can I pretend that this is working like I planned it?
I can never love again until you leave

Right Here, Waiting
03:50
|
|||
First in line when you announce the tour
Last one out behind a slamming door
I'll be right here, waiting
Seen everything you've done, and everything you'll do
Face the apocalypse with my eyes on you
I'll be right here waiting
Right here, waiting
For you
You've got the birth of a star waiting on your lips
And the end of the world at your fingertips
and I'm be right here, waiting
Show me your perfect world, the one you're dreaming of
Where you wanna end up is where I wanna end up
I'm right here, waiting
Right here, waiting
For you, for you
Tell me what you want
The world isn't enough
Tell me what I need to know
Tell me what you want from me
Tell me where you want to go,
Oh you know where I'll be
Right here, waiting

Younger Man
04:00
|
|||
Held the weight of the world in the palm of my hand
And pass it around with my childhood friends
It's a freedom that I'm tired of remembering
When I wore the skin of a younger man
I didn't give a fuck about the world's demands
Or how I fit in to someone else's plans
It's a freedom that I'm tired of remembering
When I wore the skin of a younger man
Oo- it's the same as it's ever been
Yeah - the timing is everything
Oo- it's the same as it ever was
Yeah- it's hilarious
Everyone I meet knows what the answer is
But they're all talking at once, I can't make sense of it
I really can't believe I wasn't listening
When I wore the skin of a younger man
Oo- it's the same as it's ever been
Yeah - the timing is everything
Oo- it's the same as it ever was
Yeah- it's hilarious
I'm trying to find my way back to that dream again
With flowers blooming from my skeleton
It's forgotten just as soon as I remember it
When I wore the skin of a younger man
That body isn't ever coming back again
All that's left is to find one to suffer with
Skipping hand-in-hand into oblivion
And I don't think we're ever coming back again
We'll never wear the skin of a younger man
Oo- it's the same as it's ever been
Yeah - the timing is everything
Oo- it's the same as it ever was
Yeah- it's hilarious
