LYRICS: Who’s there to save me from myself again?
 I’m waiting, waiting just to feel your hand
 I’ve taken, taken all my medicine,
 But I hate it when you run, 
 leaving me the lonely one
 I’m losing sleep and 
 losing sight of what you’ve done Who will ride with all these dreams of mine?
 Like she said, back when we were Merseyside
 I’ve been living on my own again, 
 But you’re everything I want, 
 the way you fill this hollow heart
I’m losing sleep and losing sight of…
 Losing sleep in spite of what went wrong A thousand voices echo through the corridor
 Cascades of memories and words we said before
 I can’t hear them anymore
 I can’t hear you anymore
 I can’t feel you anymore I’m losing sleep and losing sight of
 Losing sleep in spite of what went wrong
 What went wrong?
 What went wrong?
 What went wrong?

LYRICS: I try so hard to read the signs The things I love all leave in time
 They multiply and drive their knives through my heart
 And so I scream and cry at night as the air escapes my lungs
 But I’ll be fine see this girl of mine, she electrifies the sun

 The world moves slower when she is by my side
 I’m going to show her all the love I can find

 Here I sit silently
 These cold walls closing down on me
 Caving in to the beat of the kick drum
 I have to laugh I know it’s just my past trying to chill my bones
 Here comes the one who will set me free, 
 the girl sets fire to the sun

 The world moves slower when she is by my side
 I’m going to show her all the love I can find

 Who do you think you are?
 This time you’ve taken things too far
 Who do you think you are?
 This time you’ve gone too damn far
 The world moves slower when she is by my side
 I’m going to show her all the love I can find

LYRICS: Looking back at the sunshine
 Leave it in the rearview, riding down the avenue
 Lose yourself in the night sky
 Let the rain fall, wash away your dirty soul

 Do you think the saints can hear our calls?
 Do they really even care at all?
 Silly little whispers at night
 We’re all riding on borrowed time

 Come and dance in the moonlight
 Moving like a shooting star, burning out to great applause
 Embrace the new day
 You’re stealing feelings from anyone that’s in your way

 Sometimes even angels have to fall
 Can you really blame them at all?
 Giving up this precious life of mine
 We’re all riding on borrowed time

 What are you waiting for?

 (Looking back at the sunshine)
 (Lose yourself in the night sky)

 Sometimes even angels have to fall
 Can you really blame them at all?
 Giving up this precious life of mine
 We’re all riding on borrowed time
 We’re all riding on borrowed time
 We’re all riding on borrowed time
 We’re all riding on borrowed time
 We’re all riding on borrowed time

Fake Paper 03:48
I speak in code to the other dreamers
 Hide in lines of poems from non-believers
 Oh, I’ve turned to chrome
 A couple of times, before you were born.
 Hold the phone there’s a broken speaker
 Tired lines from blind receivers
 Those eyes have turned to stone
 Once or twice before you were born

 Highway farer, modest escaper
 Now you’re going home
 Words written on Fake Paper
 Tomorrow erases them all
 Erases them all
 Erases them all
 Erases them all
 Erases them all
 Erases them all

 It’s just a feeling, 
 It’s just a feeling
 Burning me alive, 
 Drowning in a sea of time
 It’s just a feeling, 
 It’s just a feeling
 Burning me alive, 
 Drowning in a sea of time
It’s just a feeling, 
 It's just a feeling
It’s just a feeling, 
 It’s just a feeling

 Tomorrow we’ll be gone
 Tomorrow we’ll be gone
 Tomorrow we’ll be gone

LYRICS: The radio static, steadies my soul
 Outside they panic and lose all control of themselves
 What the hell…is going on New York City?
 Playground of dreams
 Your sidewalks seem empty without her with me
 Remember the red door, the ring, and the sun
 Forever embedded, sweet recollections of mine 
 From those times, 
 My love

 Oh, how the heart attacks
 No, we can’t go back

 Watch the rain kiss the window, from across the room
 We’ll dance on the balcony while the Bowery’s in bloom
 Recall the moment I’d been moonstruck
 And capture the magic of falling in love with you, 
 little one

 Oh, how the heart attacks
 No, we can’t go back
 Oh, how the heart attacks
 A point of no return

 Oh, how the heart attacks
 No, we can’t go back
 Oh, how the heart attacks
 No, we can't go back
 A point of no return ++++++++++++++++++++

LYRICS: Leave it to me to find a perfect situation
 Caught in the light that shines around her vivid soul
 Now I know when to fold and let love take control
 I’m going to ride the fire through that open door

 Cause it’s a long way home
 A long way home

 It’s been so long since I’ve felt this sense of wonder
 Take it from me this one is not worth letting go
 Now I’m feeling inspired to let love take control
 I’m going to ride the fire and find out what’s in store

 Cause it’s a long way home
 A long way home

 A long way home
 A long way home
 We’re almost home
 Almost home
 Yeah, we’re almost home
 Almost home ++++++++++++++++++++

Storytelling 03:41
LYRICS: The valley’s screaming, but it don’t make a sound
 Your cries for mercy just echo around
 The time is up it’s over now, 
 Broken in and broken down
 I don’t know, 
 No I don’t know 
 just how the story ends
 Time’s moved fast, 
 The days move slow, 
 when will I see you again?
 I dry my eyes, and fill up this glass 
 To try and drown out the past

 Damn these days and damn the hope
 Bury the hatchet and lose all control
Its quiet now, 
the ghosts are gone
Held at ransom for the angels song
 I don’t know, 
 I don’t know 
 Just how the story ends
 Time’s moved fast, 
 The days move slow, 
 When will I see you again?
 I dry my eyes, and fill up this glass 
 To try and drown out the past

 Now I know, 
 Now I know, 
 just how the story ends
 Time’s moved fast, 
 The days move slow, 
 I’ll never see you again
 I dry my eyes, put down this glass, 
 And try to remember our past +++++++++++++++++++++++++

Heavy Crown 04:48
LYRICS: Blissful confusion, prescribed solution
 Walking to the beat of my drum
 Taking a chance, try a new romance
 Love on the tip of our tongues
 Things seem hazy now, like I live in a cloud
 I’ve got to get my feet on the ground
 Birds they fly so high, they try and reach the sky
 Like arrows around the sun

 This crown lies heavy
 Pretty things are meant to shine
 Are you ready?
 The revolutions in your mind
 The revolutions in your mind

 Oh love, forgive me
 You’re made of plasticine, changing with the times 
 All of your history is so contradictory, 
 Hiding in the whites of your eyes This crown lies heavy
 Pretty things are meant to shine
 Are you ready? The revolutions in your mind
 The revolutions in your mind

 True joy is in the mystery, 
 Write your questions on the wall
 A silhouette on a picture screen, 
 Might as well be no one there at all This crown lies heavy
 Pretty things are meant to shine
 Are you ready?
 The revolutions in your mind The revolutions in your mind
