Apocalypse Whenever
03:38
|
|||
|
Life tried to break me, then life fell apart
Love me or hate me, I’m still in your heart
Life’s not been pretty, but I’m still not ready to die
I’ve never felt so alive
Alright
I sailed the seas of apathy
In search of someone far from me
I used to call you after school
I’m always crawling back to you
Love is so hard to find and to lose
Apocalypse Whenever
I can’t live in fear forever, right?
Life tried to make me somebody I’m not
Can’t separate from me, I’m all I’ve got
Life’s not been pretty, but I’m still not ready to die
I’ve never felt so alive
Alright
I practice my apologies
I blame everything on astrology
I faced my fears, I chased my dreams
My demons all caught up with me
But I put up a good fight
Alright
Apocalypse Whenever
I can’t live in fear forever, right?
(Practiced apologies
Blame it on astrology)
Apocalypse Whenever
I can’t live in fear forever, can I?
Life tried to take me down, love broke my fall
Made my mistakes, have I learned from them all?
Life’s not been pretty, but I’m still not ready to die
I’ve never felt so alive
Alright
Apocalypse Whenever
I can’t live in fear forever, right?
A moment of reflection
Are we going the right direction?
Are we doomed?

Summer Lightning
03:34
|
|||
|
I don’t know where to start
I don’t want this to end
I’ve been falling apart every now and again
Never know what to say
But you get it anyway
Like you do
It was warm in the night
Looking cool in your car
Nearly started a fight
Playing pool in the bar
Now you’re walking away
With a smile on your face
Like you do
Same old situation
Poisonous temptation
Adjust my expectations
For a little less sunshine
Summer Lightning
Fun and Frightening
No one I’ve found
Does letting me down
Quite like you
Down the rainswept streets
We parade through the night
All the secrets we keep under wraps come to light
We’ll never go the distance down the path of least resistance
It’s true
At the end of the tunnel we could finally breathe
At the end of the summer
If you have to, then leave
I’ll save up my money
I’ll follow you, honey
Like I do
Adjust my expectations
For a little less sunshine
Summer Lightning
Fun and Frightening
No one I’ve found
Does letting me down
Quite like you
Summer Lightning
Fun and Frightening
No one I’ve found
Does letting me down
Nah, no one I’ve found
Does letting me down
Quite like you
Same old situation
Poisonous Temptation
Adjust my expectations
For a little less sunshine
Summer Lightning
Come and strike me
No one I’ve found
Gets up off the ground
Quite like you
Summer Lightning
Fun and Frightening
No one I’ve found
Does letting me down
Nah, no one I’ve found
Does letting me down
Quite like you

Baby Blue Shades
03:40
|

Hey, think about our better days
Think about you, those baby blue shades
That’s when you told me
You hope that the old me might show up
I overreact
Hey, think about walking away
Think about all of the ways I’ve changed
That’s when you told me
You hope that the old me might show up
He’s not coming back
Oh, I can see the moon from my kitchen
But I cannot see through this decision
I close my eyes and cross the line
Now, I’m breaking out
Yeah, you broke me down
Now, I’m breaking out
I’m breaking out
Hey, breaking out to better days
Buy myself a pair of baby blue shades
Go on, forget me
I wish that you’d let me
You text me, I’m not writing back
I miss how you hold me
Each kiss feels so lonely
But I know I’m on the right track
Oh, I can see the moon from my kitchen
But I cannot see through this decision
I close my eyes and cross the line
Now, I’m breaking out
Yeah, you broke me down
Oh, I can see my world in transition
And I can see the light I’ve been missing
I close my eyes and cross the line
Now, I’m breaking out
Yeah, you broke me down
Now I’m breaking out
I’m breaking out
I’m breaking out
I’m breaking out
I miss how you hold me
Each kiss feels so lonely
But I know I’m on the right track
That’s when you told me
You hope that the old me might show up
He’s not coming back
He’s not coming back
I’m not coming back
I’m not coming back
I’m not coming back
Oh, I can see my world in transition
And I can see the light I’ve been missing
I close my eyes and cross the line
Now, I’m breaking out
Yeah, you broke me down
Now I’m breaking out
I’m breaking out
I’m breaking out
I’m breaking out
Can’t break me down
I’m breaking out
Can’t break me down
I’m breaking out

Peachy
03:22
|
|||
|
Sing me a song
While the street lamps flicker on
You’ve got my blue jean jacket on
I sing along, I sing along
Ride like the wind
Feel the rush of blood within
I feel invincible again
You let me in, you let me in
Off the ground
Turn my life upside down, oh
I’m on the ceiling
Are you feeling like me?
It’s hard to imagine
Hard to believe
Can this really happen?
Are we just a dream?
I feel like I’m weightless
I’ve lost gravity
It’s hard to imagine
It’s hard to believe
Fourth of July
Your blue and bloodshot sparkling eyes
Look towards the symphony of lights
I’m feeling peachy, take a bite
Over the moon
Catch a car back to your room
The smell of candles and perfume
Alexa plays our favorite tune
Off the ground
Turn my life upside down, oh
I’m on the ceiling
Are you feeling like me?
It’s hard to imagine
Hard to believe
Can this really happen?
Are we just a dream?
I feel like I’m weightless
I’ve lost gravity
It’s hard to imagine
It’s hard to believe
Don’t change
Even on the worst days
Funerals and birthdays
Turbulence and Earthquakes
Don’t wait
Don’t change
Even on the worst days
Funerals and birthdays
Turbulence and Earthquakes
Don’t wait
Off the ground
Turn my life upside down
I’m on the ceiling
Are you feeling like me?
It’s hard to imagine
Hard to believe
Can this really happen?
Are we just a dream?
I feel like I’m weightless
I’ve lost gravity
It’s hard to imagine
It’s hard to believe

When The World Was Mine
03:30
|
|||
|
Drive me crazy
I’d go anywhere you take me
1980s summer soundtrack, lighting jays
We were eighteen
Nearly out of our minds
When the world was mine
When the world was mine
I don’t care what we do
Can I kick it with you?
Like it hasn’t been forever
I don’t care what we do
Come and cut me in two
Like I have nothing to hide
We could rule the world
We could lay in bed
Say all of the words we left unsaid
I don’t care what we do
Are you feeling it too?
Like it hasn’t been forever
Acting shady
LA heatwave
Lying poolside
You persuade me
Nothing’s wrong
And then you’re gone
Left me to daydream
You were cold as ice
When the world was mine
When the world was mine
One more round
Knock me down
I’m weightless
Hold on now
Let’s slow down
Let’s face it
I never know when to leave it alone
I never know when to go
Still I miss those times
When the world was mine
I don’t care what we do
Can I kick it with you?
Like it hasn’t been forever
I don’t care what we do
Come and cut me in two
Like I have nothing to hide
We could rule the world
We could lay in bed
Say all of the words we left unsaid
I don’t care what we do
Are you feeling it too?
Like it hasn’t been forever
Say it out loud
If you want me act now
Come on
Say it out loud
If you want me act now
Come on
Say it out loud
If you want me act now
Come on
Say it out loud
Yeah
I don’t care what we do
Can I kick it with you?
Like it hasn’t been forever
I don’t care what we do
Come and cut me in two
Like I have nothing to hide
We could rule the world
We could lay in bed
Say all of the words we left unsaid
I don’t care what we do
Are you feeling it too?
Like it hasn’t been forever

Wishing Fountains
03:35
|
|||
|
At sunrise I lay
Buried under my pillow
I breathe in and roll out of bed
A heart’s built to break
So you’ll weep like a willow
Sometimes it’s all in your head
Wishing fountains
We pray for change in the dark
Moving mountains
We end up right where we start
We end up right where we start
We end up right where we start
The world’s not falling apart
But you and I
Baby, we are
Set fire to your dress
Then I smash my reflection
Why would you string me along?
A drunken, bloody mess
In a world of condescension
It’s always fucking me in the wrong
Wishing fountains
We pray for change in the dark
Moving mountains
We end up right where we start
We end up right where we start
We end up right where we start
The world’s not falling apart
But you and I
Baby, we are

Electric Circus
03:24
|

|
Ah, electric hideaway
My pride and shame
Ah, riding a tidal wave
Of lies and blame
Dream electric dreams
Perfect on the surface
Life is a but a stream
Where everybody’s shirtless
Tell me what you mean
To be heard is to hurt less
Nothing’s what it seems
At this electric circus
Ah, electric hideaway
My pride and shame
Ah, crushed by a tidal wave
Of lies and blame
Trash my self esteem
When you’re feeling worthless
Hunched over a screen
To feel some sense of purpose
I’m trying so hard to make it look easy
Falling apart with a smile on my face
Everyone loves everybody until they need some thing
Then I pretend like I didn’t hear my cell phone ring
Ah, electric hideaway
My pride and shame
Ah, riding a tidal wave
Of lies and blame
Ah, crushed by a tidal wave
Of lies and blame
There’s no one beneath me
It’s so easy to leave me
I loved you completely
So deeply, so briefly
Ah, electric hideaway
My pride and shame
Ah, crushed by a tidal wave
Of lies and blame
Nothing’s what it seems
At this electric circus

In a nightclub by the bay
Where my old band used to play
Every song I love is pain
I’m waiting for you
On the dance floor, by the stage
It’s like a past life takes the reins
Every time someone speaks your name
I’m waiting for you
Waiting for you to come back home
I’m waiting for you to call my phone
I lay on the roof, see you in the stars
Evading the truth in cafes and bars
Still waiting for you
On a sidewalk, names engraved
From a long lost yesterday
On a park bench, drenched in rain
I’m waiting for you
I try to keep cool
I feel like a fool
I slip and slide, I take it all in stride
I try to keep cool
I try to keep cool
I try to keep cool
Keep it all inside
Waiting for you to come back home
I’m waiting for you to call my phone
I lay on the roof, see you in the stars
Evading the truth in cafes and bars
Still waiting for you
Every word of every line of every song
Every song, every song I love is pain
Waiting for you to come back home
I’m waiting for you to call my phone
I lay on the roof, see you in the stars
Evading the truth in cafes and bars
Still waiting for you

Strolling the streets in this ghost of a town
My future looking bleak
My head filled with sound
As I lost signal on the train underground
My thoughts came flooding in
I started to drown
Then you caught me by surprise
Changed my destination
Kaleidoscopic eyes
Forming constellations
I had no reason to breathe
Until you knocked the wind out of me
I had no light I could see
Until your radiance blinded me
I was spinning around and around
In an ocean of grief
Your ladder came down to the sea
I hope the pain never ends
Love is so bittersweet
Life was easier when I only cared about me
Missing the nights when my friends were around
We start going unsteady
Cruel merry go round
Lit my own fuse
I could not blow it out
I was strapped to a rocket
Aimed right at the ground
Then you caught me by surprise
Changed my destination
Kaleidoscopic eyes
Forming constellations
I had no reason to breathe
Until you knocked the wind out of me
I had no light I could see
Until your radiance blinded me
I was spinning around and around
In an ocean of grief
Your ladder came down to the sea
I hope the pain never ends
Love is so bittersweet
Life was easier when I only cared about me
No reason to breathe
No light I could see
No reason to breathe
No light I could see
No reason to breathe
I had no light I could see
I had no reason to breathe
Until you knocked the wind out of me
I had no light I could see
Until your radiance blinded me
I was spinning around and around
In an ocean of grief
Your ladder came down to the sea
I hope the pain never ends
Love is so bittersweet
Life was easier when I only cared about me

Take me anywhere besides here, baby
Summer never lasts as long as you want it to
As long as I’m next to you
Night drive, no headlights
The moonlight guides the way
Your tan lines burned in my mind
I’m chasing yesterday
Memory tapes stuck on repeat
Pictures of you, pictures of me
I picture the world we never got to see
Heaven is a place in my head
Take me anywhere besides here, baby
Summer never lasts as long as you want it to
As long as I’m next to you, don’t wake me
I’m living in a goddamn daydream
Nothing ever lasts as long as you want it to
As long as I’m next to you, I’m feeling like the sun never sets
That summer was endless
Sunrise tears in your eyes
You had a plane to catch
My world’s become a house of mirrors
Reflecting every path where I wake up
Find you in my bed
Heaven is a place in my head
Take me anywhere besides here, baby
Summer never lasts as long as you want it to
As long as I’m next to you, don’t wake me
I’m living in a goddamn daydream
Nothing ever lasts as long as you want it to
As long as I’m next to you, I’m feeling like the sun never sets
That summer was endless
Memory tapes stuck on repeat
Pictures of you, pictures of me
I picture the world we never got to see
Take me anywhere besides here, baby
Summer never lasts as long as you want it to
As long as I’m next to you, don’t wake me
I’m living in a goddamn daydream
Nothing ever lasts as long as you want it to
As long as I’m next to you, I’m feeling like the sun never sets
Heaven is a place in my head
That summer was endless
(Lights so bright, so pretty
In this invisible city)
Heaven is place in my head

Silently Screaming
03:42
|
|||
|
Every fear I’ve ever known comes out to play
Worthy of tears, her body moves like ocean waves
I dive into temptation
Drowning in elation
I can’t live my life this way
You terrorized me
Love, we outgrew it
She hypnotized me
I fell into it
I’ve told some pretty lies
I’ve kept love in disguise
No, I can’t live my life this way
Silently screaming
Lies on the phone
Every reason to let go of every demon
Clutching my bones
But this unbearable feeling feels like home
Silently screaming
Silently screaming
Silently screaming
Lies on the phone
But this unbearable feeling feels like home
Drive through the town you slept around like it’s a race
Try tuning out all of my doubts and my mistakes
A streetlight intersection moment of reflection
I can’t live my life this way
Can’t live this way
Silently screaming
Lies on the phone
Every reason to let go of every demon
Clutching my bones
But this unbearable feeling feels like home
Silently screaming
Silently screaming
Silently screaming
Lies on the phone
But this unbearable feeling feels like home

Grace, on the first night I saw your face
On the outside of cyberspace
I emerged from a haunted place
I think I’m in love again
You eclipse me
Our lips meet
Make my heart beat
In the backseat of your car
I think I’m in love again
Make my heart beat
In the dark we fall apart
I think I’m alone again
You light my fire, I breathe you in
You get me higher than I’ve ever been
Make my heart beat
In the backseat of your car
I think I’m in love
Sleep, in a hotel room by the sea
Where I held you inside a dream
Down the long road you ride with me
Ride with me
You eclipse me
Our lips meet
Make my heart beat
In the backseat of your car
I think I’m in love again
Make my heart beat
In the dark we fall apart
I think I’m alone again
You light my fire, I breathe you in
You get me higher than I’ve ever been
Make my heart beat
In the backseat of your car
I think I’m in love
Remember days of elation, nights so divine
I tested your patience, you tested mine
There’s no replacement
You couldn’t change my mind
Change my mind
So happy I could cry
Reflected diamonds in your eyes
When I die, I want you right there by my side
Make my heart beat
In the backseat of your car
I think I’m in love again
Make my heart beat
In the dark we fall apart
I think I’m alone again
You light my fire, I breathe you in
You get me higher than I’ve ever been
Make my heart beat
In the backseat of your car
I think I’m in love

Symphony Of Lights
04:19

When you’re in a bed of roses
When your light turns blue
Vision sliding out of focus
Broken down and homeless
I’ll be there for you
When you feel every emotion
When you want bad news
When you run out of devotion
Running in slow motion
I’ll be there for you
If I just had the answer
The answer
If I just had the answer
The answer
Tell me what to do
I’ll be there for you
When it’s going like we planned it
When there’s nothing to lose
When you’re taking me for granted
Help me understand it
I’ll be there for you
If I just had the answer
The answer
If I just had the answer
The answer
Tell me what to do
I’ll be there for you
I’ll be there for you
I’ll be there for you
Look towards the sky
A symphony of lights
We are alive
I can see it in your eyes
Look towards the sky
We can make it if we try
If I just had the answer
The answer
If I just had the answer
The answer
When you’re in a bed of roses
When your light turns blue
I’ll be there for you
I’ll be there for you
When you’re taking me for granted
Help me understand it
I’ll be there for you

Moving in a backwards motion
Tripping down the streets we’d roam
Fired at me, left me frozen
I’m numb to the cold
Crashing into your conclusion
Spun me like a spider’s web
Snapping out of my delusion
Back into my head
You watched me crash
You watched me burn
You helped me pick my pieces up
I let you down and in return
You let me know you’ve had enough
Holding on was holding me down
Holding on, who’s holding you now?
Maybe you hate me or maybe I’m crazy
Or maybe you saved me
By letting me go
Maybe you saved me
By letting me go
Falling in a forwards motion
Driving down the old dirt road
Shaded by the burnt out trees
From fire flowers grow
I want to call you up to say
I want to hear you’ve found your way
I’m hoping when the seasons change
We’re both in better days
I watched you crash
I watched you burn
I helped you pick the pieces up
I couldn’t give you what you deserve
Sometimes my best ain’t good enough
(I know you’ve had enough)
Holding on was holding me down
Holding on, who’s holding you now?
Maybe you hate me or maybe I’m crazy
Or maybe you saved me
By letting me go
Maybe you saved me
By letting me go
I let you down and in return
You let me know you’ve had enough
Holding on was holding me down
Holding on, who’s holding you now?
Maybe you hate me or maybe I’m crazy
Or maybe you saved me
By letting me go
Maybe you saved me
By letting me go
Maybe you hate me or maybe I’m crazy
Or maybe you saved me
By letting me go
Maybe you saved me
By letting me go
Crash landing back down to earth
Falling in love in reverse
Crash landing back down to earth
Falling in love in reverse
Crash landing back down to earth
Falling in love in reverse
Crash landing back down to earth
Falling in love in reverse
Maybe you saved me
By letting me go

Life Jacket

I was off on my own island
You were drifting, lost at sea
When I saw the summer lightning
It felt like home to me
And I thought my eyes were lying
When you washed up on the beach
Now that you’re safe beside me
I hope you never leave
All the little broken parts
Of our broken hearts
Make us who we are
Everybody’s looking for a silver lining
It’s hard to recognize a blessing in disguise
Everybody’s looking for some peace inside them
It’s hard to recognize
It’s hard to breathe sometimes
When the waves come crashing
The waves come crashing
I can be, I can be your life jacket
When trouble came to find us
You went running for the hills
Tried to leave your pain behind us
You know you never will
All the little broken parts
Of our broken hearts
Make us who we are
Everybody’s looking for a silver lining
It’s hard to recognize a blessing in disguise
Everybody’s looking for some peace inside them
It’s hard to recognize
It’s hard to breathe sometimes
When the waves come crashing
The waves come crashing
I can be, I can be your life jacket
When the waves come crashing
The waves come crashing
I can be, I can be your life jacket
All the little broken parts
Of our broken hearts
Make us who we are
Everybody’s looking for a silver lining
It’s hard to recognize a blessing in disguise
Everybody’s looking for some peace inside them
It’s hard to recognize
It’s hard to breathe sometimes
When the waves come crashing
The waves come crashing
I can be, I can be your life jacket
When the waves come crashing
The waves come crashing
I can be, I can be your life jacket
