I can't get to bed
But I'm really tired The things in my head You used to admire In your sundrenched world It couldn't be worse Don't bother asking Here comes the nerves While I'm trying to bask In your sundrenched world I'm talking to you But you're not listening I don't know what to do My heart is blistering Writing this song Tell me I'm not wrong I close up my mouth When you're around now Suffocating in doubt I can't make a sound In your sundrenched world I always wanted to be The one you looked to For the answers in me I'm the one who took you To your sundrenched world I'm talking to you But you're not listening I don't know what to do My heart is blistering Writing this song Tell me I belong It's all been said Once before We fucked around On your bedroom floor I'm talking to you But you're not listening I don't know what to do My hands are blistering Writing this song Tell me I belong Tell me I belong Tell me I Tell me I belong |

Old doubt and a girl by your side
She's feeding your pride As you go for a ride Down the star mile Worlds rise as she lets you come in A duo begins To the Hollywood din Of the lonely And all the gold dust in her eyes Won't reform into a ring You had and lost The one thing You kept in a safe place Remember the face The girl who had made you her own And how you left her alone All's well at the base of the hill You might need to fill A prescription to kill Off the sirens Look down from your tower on high And take in the night Look her right in the eye She'll listen And all the gold dust in her eyes Won't reform into a ring You had and lost The one thing You kept in a safe place Remember the face The girl who had made you her own And how you left her alone Life comes to those that'll choose The regular news Over playing the blues With the light on And if you burn the road that'll lead you Back to her in time I'll watch you turn to stone Can't find the sublime She's moving on Without you The tide breaks You watch the stars fake They gather you back to their home I guess it's better than being alone |

You're Sylvia Plath
As you drift from the bath I hand you a robe And so it goes The moment'll pass You're Simone de Beauvoir As you get out the car The way you read me No one can see me Is who you are And these photographs keep me alive Babe, here's your song Babe, it took too long To find in your eyes My best surprise You're Nina Simone When you talk on the phone You sing to me And I'm truly No longer alone You're Mary Cassatt When people tell you you're not You're like a child All the while I need you a lot And these photographs keep me alive Babe, here's your song Babe, it took too long To find in your eyes My best surprise And I wanna know what you know And I wanna go where you go These things remind me of These things remind me of These things remind me of you Babe, here's your song Babe, it took too long To find in your eyes My best surprise |

So we're alone again
I wish it were over We seem to never end Only get closer To the point where I can take no more The clouds in your eyes Down your face they pour Won't you be the new one? Burn to shine I take the blue ones every time Walk me down your broken line All you have to do is cry Yes, all you have to do is cry Hush, my baby, now Your talking is just noise and won't lay me down Amongst your toys in a room where I can take no more The clouds in your eyes Down your face they pour Won't you be the new one? Burn to shine I take the blue ones every time Walk me down your broken line All you have to do is cry Yes all you have to do is cry Photographs and brightly colored paper Are your mask you wear in this caper That is our life We walk right into the strife And a tear from your eye brings me home Won't you be the new one? Burn to shine I take the blue ones every time Walk me down your broken line All you have to do is cry |

Shoelaces untied
You can dry your eyes Perfect shadows lie behind us And this is the day I make you mine The way your hair lies Sometimes unrecognized All the way from Nice, today On a train Nothing to say, but there's still time And you are the one I've been waiting for today And here comes the sun, it's been baiting morn' today Lately I've lost my tongue Today you found a song Unknown our love has grown And I thank God you came along And you are the one I've been waiting for today And here comes the sun, it's been baiting morn' today You looked right through me, there was no one else I sat beside you and became myself today Today And you are the one I've been waiting for today And here comes the sun, it's been baiting morn' today |

I should know who I am by now
I walk, the record stands somehow Thinking of winter Your name is the splinter inside me while I wait I remember the sound Of your November downtown And I remember the truth A warm December with you But I don't have to make this mistake And I don't have to stay this way If only I would wait The walk has all been cleared by now Your voice is all I hear somehow Calling out winter Your voice is the splinter inside me while I wait I remember the sound Of your November downtown And I remember the truth A warm December with you But I don't have to make this mistake And I don't have to stay this way If only I would wait I could have lost myself In rough blue waters in your eyes And I miss you still I remember the sound Of your November downtown And I remember the truth A warm December with you But I don't have to make this mistake And I don't have to stay this way If only I would wait |

Somehow I'm leading someone else's life
I cut a star down with my knife And right now I still see the way the moon Plays this tune Though our nights died My hands shake, my knees quake It's every day, the same way 'Cause then came you, then there's you I keep your picture in my worn through shoes Then there's you then came you. When I'm lost I look at my picture of you And somehow I'll make tonight our own I'll show you every way I've grown Since I met you And right now I'll be the boy in your next song I'll learn the parts and play along If you let me My hands shake, my knees quake It's every day, the same way 'Cause then came you, then there's you I keep your picture in my worn through shoes Then there's you then came you When I'm lost I look at my picture of you If you let me, I'll show the world to you Yes if you let me, I'll know just what to do 'Cause then came you, then there's you I keep your picture in my worn through shoes When I'm lost in your eyes I see a way for me |

You asked me to write a tune
All about the things that go wrong And then you asked me to come home soon To the place where I belong But you stand on the other side Of the line in this place And you can't see me, you are blind And this you can't fake No this you can't fake And sometimes, sometimes I wanna be I scream that I wanna be anyone but me And I don't know if I can write about Chosen walls and the things you feel And I don't know if I can sing aloud Closing doors showing you what's real But I know when I close my eyes Late at night there's only one thing The night's shown that she can lie It's your fight, show me something Can you show me something? And sometimes, sometimes I wanna be I scream that I wanna be anyone but me What do you want me to say All I know is love, it's okay I'll write what I know And you do the same Tell me I'm sane But sometimes, sometimes I wanna be I scream that I wanna be anyone but me |

What if you could wish me away?
What if you spoke those words today? I wonder if you'd miss me when I'm gone It's come to this, release me I'll leave before the dawn But for tonight I'll stay here with you Yes for tonight I'll lay here with you But when the sun hits your eyes Through your window There'll be nothing you can do What if you could hear this song? What if I felt like I belong? I might not be leaving oh so soon Began the night believing I loved you in the moonlight So for tonight I'll stay here with you Yes for tonight I'll lay here with you But when the sun hits your eyes Through your window There'll be nothing you can do I could've treated you better, better than this Well I'm gone This song's your letter Can't stay in one place So for tonight I'll stay here with you Yes for tonight I'll lay here with you But when the sun hits your eyes Through your window There'll be nothing you can do |

Looking from the window above
It’s like a story of love Can you hear me? Came back only yesterday Who went further away Want you near me All I needed was the love you gave All I needed for another day And all I ever knew Only you Sometimes when I think of her name When it’s only a game And I need you Listen to the words that you say It’s getting harder to stay When I need you All I needed was the love you gave All I needed for another day And all I ever knew Only you This is gonna take a long time And I wonder what’s mine Can’t take no more Wonder if you’ll understand It’s just the touch of your hand Behind a closed door All I needed was the love you gave All I needed for another day And all I ever knew Only you |
