I’m still working on the song to win your heart My fingers are bleeding, and I’m not succeeding, but I still want to play the part I stayed up all night writing this I’d stay up forever, I’d wait up forever, for the taste of your lips I spill my heart for you, there’s not much more I can do So I guess I’ll keep singing, til everyone’s gone I hope your ears are ringing, the sound of this song I know my heart, is still keeping time I want you to be mine, I want you to be mine, I want you to be mine, I want you to be mine

Searching for the words, to tell you how I feel But words just won’t do, I guess I’ll just have to use my lips another way Looking deeply in your eyes, Does your heart desire the same as mine? I wish I could, believe that I could But I ran away, now I’m wishing I had stayed But I can’t initiate this kiss, there’s too much at risk Holding back, I turned my back on you Stayed up all night, thinking of you I swear your eyes screamed for it Think what could have been, a kiss that never happened Thinking what could have been, a kiss that never happened And this I can’t forget And this I will always regret So here I am singing about a kiss that never happened With a girl who doesn’t even, believe in love

Boardwalk 04:50
There’s a place along the boardwalk where the water waits for you And when morning comes we’ll see the stars give in to a sunrise view The fireflies are leading eyes but they can’t keep mine off you I’ve been waiting for the perfect sign and that shooting star told me what to do Kiss you The falling star was a wall of ours that fell to the strength of our gaze And now that I know that you’ll let me, I’m free to take you away The sun has come, the day is young, the grass beneath us is wet Both of us should probably go, but we’re not ready to go home just yet, When there’s still time To kiss you And I am free, to kiss you And I am free to take you away

They will equally divide To find a closer point of view Eliminating the excess To find the truer you And equally we lie Beside ourselves Hoping to find someone else And I hope you will see The urgency with which I breathe And I hope you will hear The words I’m dying to speak Eventually we’ll try To find our muse Pushing obstacles aside Putting ourselves to use Eventually you’ll find What I left behind I just hope that it’s enough to keep you alive (until I return)

Burns 02:54
Remember the place, You called paradise I remember your face, As it burned before your eyes And I hid the match, Behind my back Somehow despite your tears, I was able to stifle my laugh (I could still stifle my laugh) And I hope you know, in the after glow You looked just like an angel, you weren’t though And I wish you were, still I’m glad it hurt, Who needs tattoos when, you’ve got the burns There’s an empty station, in a ghost town Where I wait all day, hoping to be found When I hear a train whistle, it gets my hopes up high As it fades into the distance, I want to curl up and die And I hope you know, if I don’t show I’ve got a funeral to attend to, and it aint optional All dressed in black, I hear no laughs Who needs life when, you’ve been left for dead

Nous parlons, en etranger langue Parce-que l’anglais, did not work for us Je ne sais pas, pourquoi nous dansons Ce violent danse avec ces violent mouvements Quelquefois je pense, c’est completement ma faute Please explain this once, what I have done wrong I’m asking for answers, I’m asking for help I’m asking for reasons to save myself You’re coming up short, what of our rapport I guess like myself, it got left out in the storm You’re coming up empty, I’m not coming up for air Cause you wrapped me so tight and snug in your blanket of despair I’m so close to death, you just don’t seem to care I went looking for comfort, and got a fucking dare Your indifference is no different to a gun in my hand And the direction is guided by your reprimand I walked away, and you didn’t look back You’d too much to look forward to, with me off your back Gave up on love, gave up on me, I gave in to other comforts for my shattered believes And I know we’re both dying, from the lives that we lead We walk opposite directions, on a one way street So I guess you’ll walk into traffic, and I’ve been pushed too far away To hold you back this time
7.
Dead-end dreams and waking life, Keeping yours and taking mine Every time you lose something, There’s something new to be gained For better or worse I accept the curse, The blessed things that I birth For all the people that I’ve hurt, I’ve taken away some pain And I hope you, will walk these streets, With someone new And I hope I, will be so, lucky too I’m feeling quite delirious, I didn’t know it was so serious But it’s better to turn your back than watch, a shipwreck you can’t save All those things that we shared, Disappeared as I struggled for air Your secrets are safe with me my dear, Yeah I’ll take them to my grave Give it time and it will die, if you promise to cheat, I promise to lie, and when you lay by my side, I’ll pretend I know your name The dramas gone and now with this song I want to purge the memories

Letting Go 04:30
Tonight sleep will come, easy as birth Still I won’t leave my bed, spare for a shaking earth Stare at the roof, recall looking with you, Wrapped in the sheets, sharing the view As we both caught our breath, caught up in excess Intertwined legs, a beautiful mess We cleaned, we bleached, like the source of some disease Sanitized and alone except these memories I remember the clothes, you left in my room And you coming home and me greeting you I remember letting go, as you boarded the train Was so much easier then, knowing I’d see you again I miss you and the messes we made I miss you and sharing our pain I miss you like a motherless son I miss you I thought you were the one(x4)

Try Again 02:40
I will open my arms And press my neck to your blade A test for both of us I’m prepared for any mistakes So come on help me now I’ve waited too long I know that you’ve reached out But you’re slowly pulling away I am ready to give Another shot at this I am so loaded Here’s to hoping I don’t miss So come on help me now I’ve waited too long I know that you’ve reached out But you’re slowly pulling away Away I can’t bear the thought of this There are parts of you that I still miss Still I find I’m drowning in All the sin you washed me in I can’t bear the thought of this There are parts of you I should not miss Still I find I’m drowning in All the sin you washed me in It’s taken time to realize To really empathize With the face staring back at me I’m ready to forgive To allow myself to live To show a side of myself that’s long been unseen
