Magazine
Thunderclouds coming and it makes me wanna scream
Nobody wants to hurt you
Nobody ever wanted to hurt you, magazine
Baby maybe I can learn to take it easy
Baby just maybe I can learn to break the wall
Magazine
Earthquake shaking and it makes me wanna scream
No, you don't wanna hurt me
No, you never really wanted to hurt me, magazine
Baby maybe I can learn to take it easy
Baby just maybe I can learn to break the wall
You'd think maybe now that we're so close together
That maybe I could read you, magazine
Backbone's breaking and it makes me wanna
Everyone's watching
Feel like everybody's always watching

See You Hit the Waves
03:33

Either it's alright
Either it's all broken
Days when it's all clear
Days when it's unspoken
See you coming down
Let me break your fall
Let me be the one to catch you
See you hit the waves
Saw you crash the shore
Let me be the one to hold you
Forget the one that sold you
Either it's all night
Either it's the daytime
Summer lit by moon
Summer lit by sunshine
Sunshine, we follow 'til it's gone
See you coming down
Let me break your fall
Let me be the one to catch you
See you hit the waves
Saw you crash the shore
Let me be the one to hold you
Forget the one that sold you
Someone really should've told you
Sunshine, we follow 'til it's gone
Sometimes we follow 'til we fall

Seven Oceans
03:02

Seven oceans under you
That kind of view
Can open your eyes
Seven seas are under me
I still can't see
I chose to be blind
Wrapped around
Like a vine
That can't unwind
Got this hole in the bottom of my soul
What is one to do
When I know the hardest part
Is listening to your heart
Seven wonders of the world
They're all my girl
They're all my girl
Seven monuments for her
I wasn't sure
It's so hard to be sure
Wrapped around
Like a vine
That can't unwind
Got this hole in the bottom of my soul,
What is one to do
And I know the hardest part
Is listening to your heart
Got this hole in the bottom of my soul
What is one to do

While I'm Alive
03:50

Hold me close
Explain to me why lately I've been seeing ghosts
Body in a bag
Tell my why my father isn't coming back
I don't understand, I don't understand
I don't understand, I don't understand
Never will I know when I'll hold your hand for the last time
While I'm alive
Rising sun
The moon will tell you when your darkest day is done
Go to sleep
Love is real when you can feel it in your dreams
I don't understand, I don't understand
I don't understand, but I will understand
Never will I know when I'll hold your hand for the last time
While I'm alive

The Blue
03:14
|
|

Every night
It's getting harder to put out the lights
Every fight
Saying sorry when you know you're right
It may be, that the poison is a part of me
I know it's true
The more that I do
The more the blue
Just a dream
Isn't really what you think it means
Just a scene
From a movie on the silver screen
It may be, that the poison is a part of me
I know it's true
The more that I do
The more the blue

Confiding in Flowers
03:07
|
|

Confiding in flowers and telling lies
To the people you thought were your friends
Isn't it sad how lonely you can feel with them
Oh
Confiding in flowers, you live your life
The way God said he wanted you to
All the while I lay in bed and pray for you
Oh, oh
Confiding in flowers, they sing so soft
As they breathe through the breath that you waste
It's hard to be hateful when they lay across your face
Oh
Confiding in flowers when life is lost
And they sleep on the stone of your grave
They say that regret is born when gratefulness is late
Oh, oh
Rid me of my demons
The root of all my evils
Oh so tired of swimming in this constant sea of people

My Youth Is Escaping Me
03:35
|
|
||
Oh man, overwhelming
Even God would've cried
Cuz you're walking over water like a dream
Suddenly the things around you colored green
And the day's almost over now
And the sun's fallen through the trees
I'm older than you can see
My youth is escaping me
You can know and still not understand
What a smile's to a broken man
It's not what you thought it'd be
My youth is escaping me
Oh no, happy birthday
Oh my, where's the time
Cuz you wanna stop and rest a little while
But the marathon to run's a hundred miles
And the day's almost over now
And the sun's fallen through the trees
I'm older than you can see
My youth is escaping me
What’s a wave to a grain of sand
What's a smile to a broken man
You’re older than you can see
My youth is escaping me

Every day you live will leave you
Even the best ones
Especially the best ones
But every picture you've ever taken
You'll have it forever
You know I'll love you forever
Heaven will know me soon enough
What am I going to do
Heaven will know me soon enough
But I never thought it'd happen to you
Only a dream last night as always
It's every night now
It's almost every night now
But that dream it sounds familiar
I think it's your heartbeat
I'm dancing to the drum of your heartbeat
Heaven will know me soon enough
What am I going to do
Heaven will know me soon enough
But I never thought it'd happen to you

Beneath the Moon
03:50
|
|
||
A slave against the grain
Feel it ache within my bones
Feel it itch across my skin
And everything I own
One day will turn to dust
And float on air away
And all that's left is you and me
You and me succeed
I'm weak beneath the knees
One look across the room
Is a star beneath the moon
A maze that lasts for days
One light against the dark
Two eyes that light a fire
In everybody's heart
I'm dazed by disbelief
Still surprised by smiling teeth
When all that's left is you and me
You and me succeed
I'm weak beneath the knees
One look across the room
Is a star beneath the moon
A thought that keeps you sane
A drug that makes you dream
Of endless summer suns
Setting right behind the stream
That flows like locks of hair
A color that I've I've never seen
And all that's left is you and me
You and me succeed
I'm weak beneath the knees
One look across the room
Is a star beneath the moon
You and me succeed
I'm weak beneath the knees
One look across the room
Is a star beneath the moon

Leave me in amazement
Every time she's near to me,
but I'm still
Waiting for the day when
Her and I are clearer to me
This is all I know
My energy's been spent
Compared to all I know
Everything seems bent
It’s like looking through the glass
You see your life the way you want it to be
Stop looking through the past
For answers to the questions that you hold in your hand
Time is independence
Every time, she's got something to do
But I'm still
Pushing for the day when
Her and I have got nothing to do
This is all I know
My energy's been spent
Compared to all I know
Everything seems bent
It's like looking through the glass
You see your life the way you want it to be
Stop looking through the past
For answers to the questions that you hold in your hand
It's like looking through the glass
You see your life the way you want it to be
Stop looking through the past
For answers to the questions that you hold in your hand
