Every face
Even the one you saw yesterday It looks different today Cos everything's changed since yesterday In every possible way Things seem different today Not like yesterday Is consideration More like an acception - of consideration? Cos you have the world in your arms tonight And what if you held the world in your arms? When you're secure, do you feel much safer? As days never change, and it's three years later It's like your life hasn't changed, And it's three years late So how does it feel, to be three years late? And watching your youth drift away What seems different, seems different today And what seems different, seems different today Is consideration More like an exception - of consideration? Cos you have the world in your arms tonight And what if you held the world in your arms? You have the world in your arms tonight And what if you held the world in your arms? (tonight...) (tonight...) Cos you have the world in your arms tonight And what if you held the world in your arms? Cos you have the world in your arms tonight And what if you held the world in your arms? |

Can you hear the words I'm trying to find
for the feelings that define you There's no point in trying to hide from the skeleton that surrounds you So we speak no louder than a whisper when we're running from winter So we speak no louder than a song when we're falling all day falling all day long In whatever we say we show no emotion we show no emotion and when we kick back into the world of motion we show, we show no emotion Can you see ourselves and trying to hide the reasons that define you If there's a point in trying to find if there's an emptiness inside you So we speak no louder than a whisper means we're running from winter So we speak no louder than a song means we're falling all day falling all day long In whatever we say we show no emotion we show no emotion and when we kick back into the world of motion we show, we show no emotion Whatever we say we show no emotion we show no emotion and when we kick back into the world of motion we show, we show no emotion In whatever we say we show no emotion we show no emotion and when we kick back into the world of motion we show, we show no emotion |

Oooooh
Every step takes a beat of your heart Through a city that's falling apart On a night that rises and clears In a sky thats clouded by years My anger is a form of madness So I'd rather have hope than sadness. You said something, you said something stupid like Loves steals us from lonliness Happy birthday, are you lonely yet? I missplaced your face in the shape of a smile On a night that could never surprise me So tell me your afraid of the past Its only the future that's hidden at last You're kidding yourself, kidding yourself You're going nowhere and you're going there fast. You said something, you said something stupid like Loves steals us from lonliness Happy birthday, are you lonely yet? You said something, you said something stupid like Love won't shield us from lonliness Happy birthday You said something, you said something stupid like Loves steals us from lonliness Happy birthday, are you lonely yet? Are you lonely yet? x3 |

Songs when they're true are all dedicated to you,
and this invisible world i choose to live in. And if you believe that then now i understand why words mean so much to you: 'cause they'll never be about you. And maybe you're young without youth, or maybe you're old without knowing anything's true, I think you're young without youth. Then you contract the American Dream you never look up once. And you've contracted American Dreams, I require you to stop and look up. Sing a song about myself keep singing a song about myself, not some invisible world Constantly searching to find something new, but what will you find when you think that nothing's true? Maybe it's that nothing is new. So you let me hear songs that were written all about you The good songs weren't written for you, they'll never be about you. Then you contract the American Dream you never look up once. And you've contracted American Dreams, you never look up once, so dont look up. Sing a song about myself keep singing a song about myself, not some invisible world. Sing a song about myself keep singing a song about myself, not some invisible world. And I won't tell you what this means 'cause you already know And I won't tell you what this means 'cause you already know So sing a song about myself keep singing a song about myself, (repeat to end) not some invisible world. You came along and found the weak spot That you always wanted Let yourself be everything That you've always wanted It doesn't have to be so decided But you've always wanted No need for explanations You've always wanted You'll find what you'll find when you find there's nothing. You'll find what you'll find when you find there's nothing. |

By the harbour I harbor
The strangest memories Older than I could ever be Stranded in nostalgia So tonight i'll try harder But it's hard to fix this spotlight on me In a cast that's taking places I'm not sure of where I want to be Stand up, stand up and stand out Applaud El Captain And jump up to cheers from the crowd Stand up, stand up and stand out And I hope you take your camera To photograph my tears as they hit the groundNo one even listens The same way that no one ever laughs I'm taking the car out of the snow I'm wondering where the summer went to Circled by your secrets I'm hoping that they don't include me At least I'm in good company Because there's no one else around except meStand up, stand up and stand out Applaud el captain Just to watch the world slow itself Stand up, stand up and stand out And I hope you took your camera The silence makes the loudest soundIt seems far too easy to say the same things I'll choose my own way to use my life up And finally I found a new way to say the same things in imaginary ways I use my life upYou were looking at pictures in the distance Hoping to see the future In your pictures of the distance Hoping to see the futureLooking at pictures in the distance Hoping to see the future Through your pictures of the distance Hoping to see the futureLooking at pictures in the distance Hoping to see the future In your pictures of the distance Hoping to see the futureLooking at pictures in the distance Hoping to see the future In your pictures of the distance Hoping to see the future |

If I know, what I know, then no one will watch over you
So someone shouldn’t really tell me what I want to know I know, I owe, and I know that matters don’t matter as much As you think they do You will only be yourself When you can never be yourself And you will only be yourself When you understand what you know How long, will we go on with a modern way of letting go, tell me how long will we go on with the modern way of letting you go? If I know, what I know, losing isn’t learning to be lost It’s learning to know when you’re lost If I know, what I know, I’ll want to make the most of what it seems like You will only be yourself You can never be yourself And you will only be yourself When you understand what you know How long, will we go on with a modern way of letting go, tell me how long will we go on with the modern way of letting you go? |

I woke up first this morning
I’ve never seen the dawn But I know what the world looked like before How would I know what you said? You’re always first to go to bed You’re intent on sleeping it off Let me sleep, next to the mirror I know you don’t like mirrors When they reflect on you For every word that you write They won’t mean much as barricades (they hold me down) With every word that you write They won’t mean much as barricades (they hold me down) For every word that you write You don’t mean much to barricade (they hold me down) For every word that you write You won’t mean much when your barricade deepen But I’m sure that you’ll be fine Ten more years of this It will nearly be time I’m sure that you’ll be fine It can’t take ten more years You woke up first this morning You told me that you'd had a bad dream Like one never before What was in it? My reflection showed that I’m far too critical Let me sleep next to the mirror Don’t tell me that you don’t like mirrors Don’t tell me that you don’t like Looking right through your own reflection For every word that I write They won’t mean much as barricades (they hold me down) For every word that you write They won’t mean much as barricades (they hold me down) For every word that you write They don’t mean much as barricades (they hold me down) With every word that you write Is no match for our barricade I’m sure that you’ll be fine Ten more years of this It will nearly be time I’m sure that you’ll be fine But it can’t take ten more years |

In Remote Part)
In the beginning, there were answers Then they came along and changed All these questions and their answers seem to change So I'll wait 'til I find the remote part of your heart When nowhere else will let us choose a comfortable start We stop in every passing place To watch the world move faster than we do Watch it pass with our eyes closed The way we usually choose to So I'll wait 'till I find the remote part of your heart When nowhere else will let us choose a comfortable start And even if the breath between us smells of alcohol We call it confusion in the best way possible Scottish Fiction) It isn't in the mirror, it isn't on the page It's a red hearted vibration Pushing through the walls of dark imagination Finding no equation There's a red road rage, But it's not road rage It's asylum seekers engulfed by a grudge Scottish friction, Scottish fiction It isn't in the castle, it isn't in the mist It's a calling of the waters as they break to show The new black death with reactors aglow Do you think your security can keep you in purity? You will not shake us off Above or below Scottish friction, Scottish fiction |

Mountains wouldn't part for me They have no uncertainty I'm just a passing emotion Just hoping they take notice And you are an opportunity Without an opportunity Another passing emotion And hope that someone will take notice And did I hear you sing That we exist without existing Or did I hear you sing That we'll land where we begin I understand it, but I don't show it So I won't think it, and maybe we'll be there Maybe we will be there I understand it, but I don't show it So I won't think it, and maybe we'll be there Maybe one day we will be there Oh, oh-oh-oh... I thought I heard you say That I must be dissappearing But I'm sure I heard you sing We won't begin I understand it, but I don't show it So I won't think it, and maybe we'll be there Maybe we will be there I understand it, but I don't show it So I won't think it, and maybe we'll be there Maybe one day we will be there Oh, oh-oh-oh... You have no sense in emptiness Will you try a little harder You have no sense in emptiness Will you try, try, try a little harder |

I found a mountain on my own (I’m encouraged)
Trust history to say it’s unknown (it’s discouraging) There’s a seventeen contest in my own home (discourage) Sick of seventeen contests in my own home (discourage) Don’t cross the road, you’re under a spell A broken violin Don’t cross the road, you’re under a spell Of broken violins But all I need is a little discourage All I need is a little discourage All I need is a little discourage All I need is a little discourage All I need is a little discourage I ran away from my own telephone (discourage) It rings to tell you what the future holds in store, so... There’s a lack of confidence at home (discourage) When a seventeen contest fills your own home (discourage) Put your trust in courage, cause no one can tell The broken violent Put your trust in courage, no one can tell The broken violent. But all I need is a little discourage All I need is a little discourage All I need is a little discourage All I need is a little discourage All I need is a little discourage (the world knows what I need, but it’s proving far too hard for me) (Repeat till end) |

It's always 3am in your world
So I'm drinking this as if I hadn't slept Telling stories which tell their stories themselves You didn't even hear them I thought to somewhere else As long as I go somewhere, you'll still be trying to see As long as I go somewhere, you'll still be trying As long as I go somewhere, you'll still by lying to me As long as I go somewhere If you're so sure that you don't need love Only this is if I hadn't slept As laughter smiles back in your direction But you're protected by the smoke from your cigarette Then you tried To hold my hand Under the table But it's far too vague To be meaningful As long as I go somewhere, you'll still be trying to see As long as I go somewhere, every night has a hold over me As long as I go somewhere, you'll still by lying to me As long as I go somewhere And you held me like I was a shadow But completely without any mystery And you compared me to a shadow Which in itself is some kind of victory |

There are times that I should try, To be so much more alive But if time was right then I would be with you again Or do you worry that I try to avoid the point And then deny The time I spent deciding it was you again It's when I live in a hiding place It's the only way I feel safe When I'm safe in a hiding place (That's not hidden now) I'm safe in a hiding place It's the only way I feel safe When I'm safe in a hiding place And you're full of facts But not things that could add up to words Think about meaning more as an after word As in afterward I return but don't remain, I'm impatient for a reason To complain about winter, Making me see through again Or is it your damaged reply, That makes me realize that The more I try The less that plans will help me comprehend again So I live in a hiding place It's the only way I feel safe When I'm safe in a hiding place (That's not hidden now) I'm safe in a hiding place It's the only way I feel safe When I live in a hiding place And you're full of facts But not things that could add up to words You think about meaning more as an after word And you're full of facts But not things that could add up to words You think about meaning more as an after word As in afterward |

It's knowing what's important
hidden lockets of your hair felt exactly every moment even moments we never share And all this land has been discovered every frame in-front of me is describing in a story a familiar history Through a city that's all closing atleast it's closing in on me but you're too old to remember or I'm too young to agree Secret teachings take me somewhere strange shadows gained and bottles drain let your tears fall in the shape of everyone of the American states If I could see your face before it's born and raised before it was born and raised in memories wake Reassure me into changing names vision strained a seconds change to be secure of everything if I could make another world We're like flies landing on flies we suffer what we never try so I slick my hair and I stamp my feet until the darkness until the darkness is complete If I could see your face before it's born and raised before it was born and raised in memories wake |
