Daphne Loves Derby

Sometimes, I am afraid
Afraid that I'll never catch my breath
Going this pace (ahhhhhh)
Struggling for space
And you, you left me with
Such a bitter taste in my mouth
When we talked for the last time, whoa (ahhhhhhh)

Honey, honey
I'm sorry you had to
I'm sorry you had to
Take me so seriously
Take me seriously
All we have left to do now
Is lay in our beds by ourselves every night, whoa

When we were laid
Right by the beach
The sand on our skin
The hair in your face
The salt on our lips
When we kissed
And now I can't forget
All of the little things we said with confidence
With confidence, whoa
I was mistold that
Every good thing we have
Must come to a bitter end

Honey, honey
I'm sorry you had to
I'm sorry you had to
Take me so seriously
Take me seriously
All we have left to do now
Is lay in our beds by ourselves every night, whoa

I'm not ready
I'm not ready
If you come to me so strong and steady
Please have mercy
Please have mercy tonight, tonight
I'm not ready
I'm not ready to leave yet
So please have some mercy
Please have some mercy for me, for me

Honey, honey
I'm sorry you had to
I'm sorry you had to
Take me so seriously
Take me seriously
All we have left to do now
Is sleep

My eyes are tracing patterns carved into the skies over New Mexico
It makes me want to ride home
And I've lost touch of everything that means anything to me
My friends always forgive me

We become too brave and quick,
A little clever, a little numb
We could a stare a lover in the eyes and lie
"Yes, I don't feel anything at all"

And I could say
When I have everything I need right now
I hope you're proud you liar
But its late
The weight of all my emptiness comes crashing down on me

I'm terrified
I can't recollect the faces that once kept me warm
They wait back home
Time takes it's toll, on me
I used to be so obvious with all my words, so
But at least I was honest
Ahhhh Ahh Ahh Ahhhh



And I could say
When I have everything I need right now
I hope you're proud you liar
But its late
The weight of all my emptiness comes crashing down on me

Tennis courts and makers
And paperback best sellers
I want to be home
I want to be myself again
Tennis courts and makers
And paperback best sellers
I want to be home
I want to be myself again

And I could say
When I have everything I need right now
I hope you're proud you liar
But its late
The weight of all my emptiness comes crashing down on me

Wake me up.
It feels like I′ve been sleeping since New Years day,
Dreaming my life away.
Please try to understand if you think I′ve changed.
And all my friends they say I waste too much time staring out of windows in airplanes.
No no I won′t take the aisle seat.

Just take me away with blood and bravery.
I am the ever green that breaks the storm.
Sing hallelujah, I sold my soul to the darkening.

Just tell me why I I
Why do I keep myself when I know I′m still walking blind.
I′ll just keep myself in bed.
And I′m the only fool that runs away from anything thats good for me,
But don′t you dare keep me in your prayers.

Just take me away with blood and bravery.
I am the ever green that breaks the storm.
Sing hallelujah, I sold my soul to the darkening.

Happy New Year, hope I make it through.
Happy New Year, hope to see you soon.

Love and mercy, blood and bravery.
I am the ever green that breaks the storm.
Sing hallelujah, I sold my soul to the darkening.

Out of line
We are fools
To be under the night light again
And I, I admit we've come so far from the good fight

Please, please, just say something sweet
And keep it simple, keep it shallow
Don't, don't you dare say word
That will shake up, shake up my bones

Whoooa, whoooa
Put your back into it
Put your back into it
Whoooa, whoooa
You can do it better
You can do it better

[Background:] (I still fall apart... don't you worry love)
Don't be disappointed
But your eyes will tell me everything
When you try to smile
No one here is getting paid to act
So please just save it
For another mistake

[Background:] (I still fall apart... don't you worry love)
Please, please, just say something sweet
And keep it simple, keep it shallow
Don't, don't you dare say word
That will shake my bones

Whoooa, whoooa
Put your back into it
Put your back into it
Whoooa, whoooa
You can do it better
You can do it better
[x2]

Ohhhhh, ohhh, ohhhhh ...
Ohhhhh, ohhh, oh, oh
[x2]

Out of line
We are fools
To be under the night light again
And I, I admit we've come so far from the good fight

Whoooa, whoooa
Put your back into it
Put your back into it
Whoooa, whoooa
You can do it better
You can do it better
[x2]

If I find my way through the darkest of days,
will I laugh about the things that kept me awake?
But if my greatest fears paints a song so crystal clear,
will I run away or will I hide?

Chorus:
And if I don't come home tonight just know I tried my best to fight,
please don't think I plan to lose to the night.
And crystal moon so dull and bright, my heavy soul can't stand the light.
It burns me straight to the bones, my bones.

In the desert sun I watched my nerves come undone
one by one like strings they tangle into knots
Ever since that day deep in Santa Fe,
I've learned to keep myself from giving everything away.

Chorus:
And if I don't come home tonight just know I tried my best to fight,
please don't think I plan to lose to the night.
And crystal moon so dull and bright, my heavy soul can't stand the light.
It burns me straight to the bones, my bones.

Chorus:
And if I don't come home tonight just know I tried my best to fight,
please don't think I plan to lose to the night.
And crystal moon so dull and bright, my heavy sould can't stand the light.
It burns me straight to the bones, my bones.

A violet night kept you alive
But you never had the will to stay here
I was possessed by your eyes
But you fell asleep most of the time
So I learned to speak myself
While you were in dreams somewhere else so.....

Maybe maybe if I could see you now (oh ohhh)
I'll find a way to sing somehow
Something to make you stay so wide awake somehow

She always said I was too silent
And I never found the words to entertain her
Maybe I tried just too hard to always be clever
While she always starved for simple words to keep her safe
To keep her safe

Maybe maybe if I could see you now (oh ohhh)
I'll find a way to sing somehow
Something to make you stay so wide awake somehow
Maybe maybe if I don't see you now
I'll keep myself shattered somehow
Oh in every way, every way somehow

A man who speaks with a silver tongue
Yes he whispered to me something sweet that swept me away
I sold your soul to a pack of wolves
For two pounds of pride and a lifetime supply of regrets
Regrets

A violet night kept you alive
But you never had the will to stay here
Maybe it's all for the best
So darling don't lose any sleep over me

Maybe maybe if I could see you now (oh ohhh)
I'll find a way to sing somehow
Something to make you stay so wide awake somehow
Maybe maybe if I don't see you now
I'll keep myself shattered somehow
Oh in every way, every way somehow

Watch this coward dance
I keep my feet so close to the ground
With every step, without a sound
Mother, look away
I don't know who I've become
Since that November day
When I said I wouldn't change
Maybe I can't be surprised…

Take my hands
I can twist out lines for every situation (situation)
All I have
Is a heart that's trained to calculate my losses in the end

Slow steps…
Don't forget to think of posture
Now deep breaths, with deeper words
Listen, listen now…
This is where it matters most
Every phrase will count
Just make sure you can run away; just in case…
(Day after day you'll get used to
The guilt from the necks you bite into)

Take my hands
I can twist out lines for every situation (situation)
All I have
Is a heart that's trained to calculate my losses in the end

This town was built to remind me of all my mistakes
But I have plans to burn every building
So no one will be here to hold my hands, hold my hands

Take my hands
I can twist out lines for every situation (situation)
All I have
Is a heart that's trained to calculate my losses in the end
Calculate my losses in the end

Take care, take care now mother.
This tiger's been tamed with cigarettes and warm gin.
(Oh, never have enough, never have enough)
Lets decorate the cage with blinds.
Somethings, somethings should be kept from innocent eyes.
Yeah, eyes of the beasts are hungry but so spineless.

Does it hurt when you breathe?
Do you pray in your sleep to entertain?
It's Christmas day tomorrow so I'm begging,
Please can we go to sleep? oh

Separate the coward and the curse, you won't change.
It's not like we have anything thats left to lose.
So come on come on lets be brave.
Separate the coward and the curse, you won't change.
Say a little prayer then we'll say there's no one here to blame.

Dust here is tangled in the air.
Decorate the cage that's kept clean with blinds.
Somethings, somethings should be kept from innocent eyes.
Yeah, eyes of the beasts are hungry but so spineless.

Does it hurt when you breathe?
Do you pray in your sleep to entertain?
It's Christmas day tomorrow so I'm begging,
Please can we go to sleep? oh

Separate the coward and the curse, you won't change.
It's not like we have anything thats left to lose.
So come on come on lets be brave.
Separate the coward and the curse, you won't change.
Say a little prayer then we'll say there's no one here to blame.

Separate from the spineless.
Separate from the spineless.

Separate the coward and the curse, you won't change.
It's not like we have anything thats left to lose.
So come on come on lets be brave.
Separate the coward and the curse, you won't change.
Say a little prayer then we'll say there's no one here to blame.

I'll pretend I'm deep asleep
Before she burns the skin beneath my sleeves
My sleeves
She's not convinced, she's not convinced
When I try to keep a straight face when we kiss
When we kiss

"And no one comes to bed to sleep"
You said, you said when you talk in your sleep, oh
I want to run, I want to run
But you've got the gun pointed right at me

Won't you believe me, oh
Believe me tonight, oh oh oh
You've got control but I don't mind

Call us out on our mistakes
Call them all just fun and games
We act and react all over again,
but it's all the same
And if you ever find yourself a mile,
or two away from my place
won't you stop for a while
and kill me while I'm sleeping, love

I'm not afraid to make the same mistakes that you make, oh
Come on, come on, don't keep me waiting
I know, I know where this is going
We fall apart without intentions
but I can't deny that I didn't think ahead, oh
You never mean to, you never mean to
But you've got me tied so tightly to your wrists

Call us out on our mistakes
Call them all just fun and games
We act and react all over again,
but it's all the same
And if you ever find yourself a mile,
or two away from my place
won't you stop for a while
and kill me while I'm sleeping, love

If you ever want some trouble
But can't afford the alcohol
I'll be here, I'll be here waiting
I'll be here, waiting for you

Call us out on our mistakes
Call them all just fun and games
We act and react all over again,
but it's all the same
And if you ever find yourself a mile,
or two away from my place
won't you stop for a while
and kill me while I'm sleeping, love

Darling, keep your voice low
If you can't recall your lines
Maybe they won't notice that
You're hiding the script under your sleeves

I'm sure we'll be fine
You've got your friends
I've got my makers and all this time

Too late to save this show
Everyone's going home
Too late to make them stay
The critics say that the script is old

Your step away from the stage and the spotlight
I hold my breath as the curtain comes down
We must have misplaced the scene
Where love conquers all

It conquers all and if I could have known
On that winter day that you'd fade away
And only I was to blame

I would have stayed awake
And found a way to make every soul
In the crowd stand and say
"Bitter, sweet and cheap
But the ending makes it strong"

We gave our lives
To learn how to fly on our own,
Only to find out
The edge of all we′ve known,
It was just a painted sky

The clouds in the skies fill the heavens reflected our eyes
And all I′ve seen is all there is to be seen

We are blessed, I am cursed
I'm staying in the dark and drinking from my heart
And I, I'm feeling blessed
But something in the air will drive me to the start

It's the same things, the same things that get me again
Oh, oh

Sticks of death, cigarettes
I hate the smell of smoke but I've learn to hide em in
And then when I'm old I'll damn these broken lungs
I should've listen to my friends

It's the same things, the same things
It's the same things, the same things that get me again
Oh, oh

This time I want to take it slow
And try to keep this life in line
Maybe fall in love so I can learn to love the night

We can sail the seven seas
And just leave behind all these ghosts of mine
But it's the same, the same things

This time I want to take it slow
And try to keep this life in line
