A shadow falls by your eyes
and I can't see to make my next move so
I lie beside you and we sleep for hours and hours
The hardest part of my day has been
leaving your side
We were never sure of anything
except that tomorrow held
the sweetest mysteries
Hide under the sheets
for what seems like days
We won't miss the calls coming in
we'll order-in and think it's sweet to be invisible
One thing I know is
we'll never grow tired of being alone together
We were never sure of anything
except that tomorrow held
the sweetest mysteries
so throw away your plans, stay with me
tell me that today is ours
throw away your plans, stay with me
tell me that the day is ours
just throw away your plans.

disconnect/protect
Blade, blatant calamity
nondescript hypocrisy
sink into your capacity
with fine lines drawn in gravity
you have walls
you have knives
that you use to cut through
all of your buried abuse
you have it all
tight in your hand
and you disconnect to protect
your head lies deep in the sand
pain, drink down the remedy
spilled on your dress
bound for catastrophe
what a mess, what a mess
run, like you have never run
feel your legs leap in motion towards the escape
you can't escape
when you're clinging to the cause of these mistakes
you have it all
tight in your hand
and you disconnect to protect
your head lies deep in the sand
nondescript hypocrisy
sink into your capacity
with fine lines drawn in gravity
you have walls
you have knives
that you use to cut through
all of your buried abuse
you have it all
tight in your hand
and you disconnect to protect
your head lies deep in the sand
pain, drink down the remedy
spilled on your dress
bound for catastrophe
what a mess, what a mess
run, like you have never run
feel your legs leap in motion towards the escape
you can't escape
when you're clinging to the cause of these mistakes
you have it all
tight in your hand
and you disconnect to protect
your head lies deep in the sand

Make Me.
Read you like a book
Filled with misspellings and still some truths
Break apart the core of my being
and tell me that you just want to look
Something tells me you don't believe in anything
that you can't see or touch
You don't believe in anything
anything that you can see
besides oxygen and gravity
make me believe
make me breathe
take me to the brightest light and make me see
make me dream
so that we
can be
happy
something tells me you don't believe in anything
that you can't see or touch
You don't believe in anything
breaks my heart to hear you speak
but I can't leave you behind
arrogance and ignorance
disguised as intellectuality
scars and things written in stone
won't save you from your own depravity
something tells me you won't believe anything I say
so lets just walk away from this
if you don't believe in anything
anything in this world
except me
If you'd just accept me
than we'll be fine.

Sleeping Right
You sit on the edge of the bed, I'm driving from Coast to Coast
Waiting for the slightest sound to make your ears turn and eyes stop at once
The deepened senses that you have
Are the consequences of holding back
You've been awake for days on end, You couldn't sleep if you wanted to
You're scared stiff of the possibilities that
My hands might be resting on someone else back
And my affection is spent on a lonely girl that doesn't mean a thing in this world to me
You won't be sleeping right tonight without me by your side
Waiting for the slightest sound to make your ears turn and eyes stop at once
The deepened senses that you have
Are the consequences of holding back
You've been awake for days on end, You couldn't sleep if you wanted to
You're scared stiff of the possibilities that
My hands might be resting on someone else back
And my affection is spent on a lonely girl that doesn't mean a thing in this world to me
You won't be sleeping right tonight without me by your side
you lay awake wondering if I have found somebody else
you won't be sleeping right tonight without me by your side
your breaths only contest the silence in this room to night
You need to breathe in, you need to breathe out
Your heart should rest assured and sleep without
The doubtful tendencies that come alive in you
should be put to bed, never to be awoken again
your breaths only contest the silence in this room to night
You need to breathe in, you need to breathe out
Your heart should rest assured and sleep without
The doubtful tendencies that come alive in you
should be put to bed, never to be awoken again
You won't be sleeping right tonight without me by your side
you lay awake wondering if I have found somebody else
you won't be sleeping right tonight without me by your side
your breaths only contest the silence in this room to night

A Life Made Up in My Head
quickly passing by a glance of what perfection is in my mind
in the moment- i see petals getting trampled
as you walk down the aisle
quickly asking for your name before you get away
but despite all clever words, my line is cast and catch is lost in the waves
and i know I'll see you again
in the heart of a lover is the closest friend
breathe in, out and in again
breathe you in
I've been looking for that face in every face that see
and again my mind is wandering to the places we'd meet
the bench at the end of a long winding path
were we kiss and you say words you don't want to take back
quickly asking for your name before you get away
but despite all clever words, my line is cast and catch is lost in the waves
and i know I'll see you again
in the heart of a lover is the closest friend
breathe in, out and in again
breathe you in
quickly asking for your name before you get away
but despite all clever words, my line is cast and catch is lost in the waves
still I hold on to hope
my casting rope is leading farther from whats real
I'll never be satisfied, only be occupied
looking for a girl from a glance and a life made up in my head
in the moment- i see petals getting trampled
as you walk down the aisle
quickly asking for your name before you get away
but despite all clever words, my line is cast and catch is lost in the waves
and i know I'll see you again
in the heart of a lover is the closest friend
breathe in, out and in again
breathe you in
I've been looking for that face in every face that see
and again my mind is wandering to the places we'd meet
the bench at the end of a long winding path

but despite all clever words, my line is cast and catch is lost in the waves
and i know I'll see you again

breathe in, out and in again
breathe you in
quickly asking for your name before you get away
but despite all clever words, my line is cast and catch is lost in the waves
still I hold on to hope
my casting rope is leading farther from whats real
I'll never be satisfied, only be occupied
looking for a girl from a glance and a life made up in my head

Sleeping Hearts
we sleep alone in separate beds
and we only rely on instincts instead
of our hearts, they sleep alone with us
when there's no one to love
then its easy to give up
you can love me
I can be your everything
you can take control of my heart
just by listening
you can be happy
you could be happy again
I'll do better from here on in
misunderstanding, are you listening?
come on now, lets work this out
I'm tired of the arguments
they repeat like a needle that's stuck in one place
exhausting all the common phrases
and character words that rearrange
the way that you feel about me
when our mouths are at war our hearts stay asleep
its easier to stay asleep than to live out the scenes from your bad dreams
you can love me
I can be your everything
you can take control of my heart
just by listening
you can be happy
you could be happy again
I'll do better from here on in
and we only rely on instincts instead
of our hearts, they sleep alone with us
when there's no one to love
then its easy to give up
you can love me
I can be your everything

just by listening

you could be happy again

We Collide
This road is getting trampled under my feet
We've walked it up and down, a thousand summer nights
In our future I see something happening
this is a place that we could go and always be happy
Stay with me awhile
If you have to go, I'll understand why
But if you wouldn't mind
Could you leave behind
A ghost
To haunt me till I die?
Stay inside
We collide
Your soul, my soul... They meet and find
There's so much undiscovered
But I've got the time to
Stay with me awhile
If you have to go, I'll understand why
But if you wouldn't mind
Could you leave behind
A ghost
To haunt me till I die?
Stay inside
We collide
