Spaceship

We are on a spaceship headed for God knows where
And will we know when we get there
So I'm counting on you
To hold my hand in the meantime (x2)
Because I'm scared
We're not prepared
And we don't know
Where else to go
I'm scared
I'm not prepared
And I don't know
Where else to go
So I'm on a spaceship headed for God knows where
And will I know when we get there
So I'm counting on you
Hold my hand in the meantime

Waste The Night Away

Eighteen hours long
When will I be strong
Strong enough to stay awake in the day
Coffee in my cup
Piled up on the tabletop
Strong enough to keep me sane anyway
Ooh (x2)
Mess around with friends
The sun rises rough enough
But good enough to keep me warm through the day
Windows stained with rain
The howling wind quiets down
Your voice makes me feel more than okay
Ooh (x4)
I just want to waste the night away
I just want to waste the night away
Kill some time
Teach myself to speak in rhyme
Maybe write a couple, a couple more lines
Ooh (x2)
Just want to waste the night away (x2)

Burning Up
04:00

I was waiting for you
Blankets on the floor
Burning up
Twisting in the doorway
The bulbs in the table lamp
burning up
Burning up
You think I’m beat
You think I’m slowly
Burning up
You think you’ve won this
You know you’ve left me
Burning up
I may be burning up
But you will not break me
You will not break me
Oh no
The fuses have blown
You won’t find the table lamp
Burning up
The blankets are folded
It’s hot on this summer night
Burning up
But you won’t burn me up
You will not break me
You will not break me
You will not take me
Dead or alive

Step

Mercy, mercy, mercy
You have forsaken me
I’ve slept a thousand nights but
You still torture my dreams
Baby, baby, baby
You used to tear me at my seams
Now I’m as done as I can be

Step Hard
02:26
|
|

|
Step hard on my doorstep
Step hard on my soul
Pick up your spray paint
Do what you want to my door
Take back everything you gave me
It’s right there by the door
‘Cause I don’t live here anymore
Step hard on my name now
Don’t let my reputation be
Step hard on my fingers
Cut the branches off my tree
Oh you, you know my number
You think you know where I’ll be
Only that number isn’t me

Let Me Out, Let Me Go

There will come a day when I will leave
For a place with a real winter
The sun has burnt my skin enough
There will come a day when I will leave
For I suffocate when I sleep
This city has choked my dreams enough
Let me out, let me go
For a while (x2)
There will come a day when I will leave
It hurts to hate this city
But some nights I just don’t dream enough
There will come a day when I will leave
My friends have left already
The others I don’t see enough
Let me out, let me go
For a while (x4)
And the rain is starting to pour
It’s so loud
And the past is knocking on my door
I’m not proud (x4)
There will come a day when I will leave
For a place with a real winter
The sun has choked my dream enough

Golden

18 karat treasure
Lips as soft as clay
She’s beaten and emboldened
She knows just what to say
She knows I like her
So she’s gonna walk away
Oh she’s golden and sometimes she walk away, walk away
Oh she’s golden and sometimes she here to stay, here to stay
And I don’t know how
She consumed my mind
She was in my arms
I let her slip away (x2)
She knows what she wants from me
She’s here to stay
She knows what she’s giving me
I get weaker everyday
Oh she’s killing me
And she’s gonna walk away
Oh she’s golden and sometimes she walk away, walk away
Oh she’s golden and sometimes she here to stay, here to stay
And I don’t know how
She consumed my mind
She was in my arms
I let her slip away (x6)
Oh she’s golden (x8)

You Don't Have To Hide
03:04

In the deepest darkness
I will wind your light
In the deepest ocean
Deepest sky
You don’t have to hide
In the brightest corners
You will find
That your darkest demon
Will lose this fight
Ooh, just hold on tight (x2)
In the darkest corners
I will find your light

You Haunt Me
02:34
|
|

I knew a girl who smells like the forest
On the first night of rain
Nothing extravagant
But so much remains
And I knew a girl up in the mountains
So far away
Nothing permanent
But I feel so estranged
I feel so estranged
And I knew a girl sharp as a chill on the wind
Oh the shame
She never spoke up
What was I to say
And I knew a girl cool as the rain on my skin
She knew how to play
She left without a word
It hurt just the same
It just the same
Oh, you haunt me, you haunt me
Oh, you haunt me, you haunt me
Oh, you haunt me, you haunt me
And I just can’t look away (x2)
