Fell for Miles

We go alone again
with just the things we kept inside, we kept it inside
the undertow, the bends
we never really could decide, couldn't decide
But I thought for once we had it right
I thought for once that we might fly
but when we finally came untied
we fell for miles and miles
we fell for miles
We were the only friends
that shared betrayal and traded lies, we traded in lies
forever never lent
itself to still our sharking minds, was all in our minds
I thought for once we had it right
I thought for once that we might fly
but when we had the heart to try
we fell for miles and miles
we fell for miles
You let it let slip that you might slide
I dared to dance to the thin ice
but when the cracks became to wide
we fell for miles and miles
we fell for miles

What I Shouldn't Believe
04:53

Never wanted, never needed
you never thought I had that much to say
or compare to all your virtues
and everything you thought you were anyway
It didn't take that much persuading
for you to get me to see
and plus I just got tired of waiting
for you to set me free
So don't tell me what I shouldn't believe
don't tell me everything that you think I'll never be
cos I don't really need to receive
I don't really need to explain what you can't see
I won't fear you when I walk through
now that I see you naked as a ghost
of a someone turned to no one
someone I knew I'd really never know
It didn't take that much persuading
for you to get me to see
and plus I just got tired of waiting
for you to set me free
So don't tell me what I shouldn't believe
don't tell me everything that you think I'll never be
cos I don't really need to receive
I don't really need to explain what you can't see

Straight for the Sun
04:30

Tired of this living
but we'll carry on
if what we've been given
is less than we want
Cos tomorrow's hiding
but it can't run
so we'll go driving
straight for the sun
When days have collided
with said and done
and all your horizons
have come and gone
Tomorrow's hiding
but it can't run
so we'll go driving
straight for the sun
Cos tomorrow's hiding
but it can't run
there's no denying
it's gonna come
the silver lining
for anyone
that's going driving
straight for the sun

Walk Away
03:52
|

|
I can't seem to find my way
through your never ending systems
where you keep the lights off
just long enough so I can't see dark
But I won't fall into the next trap you lay
But I won't fall into the next trap you lay
I'm always taken in by your worlds
or clawing back on burning blisters
but I know if I don't show
I wont grow harder of the heart
So I don't fall into the next trap that you lay
No I don't fall into the next trap that you lay
No I don't fall again unless after the fall I walk away
I won't fall into the next trap that you lay
No I won't fall into the next trap that you lay
No I won't fall again unless after the fall I walk away

Missed All the Warnings
05:06
|
|||
|
I take my hat off to the way
the way your heart just changes shape
and makes it harder for it to break
So I put my coat on, but couldn't shake
the cold inside comes on in waves
the ones I ride out everyday
And you missed all the warnings cos they say
the things you don't want, you might need some day
I still remember though it's growing faint
the way you said, you couldn't fake
but I guess you fooled my anyway
And you missed all the warnings cos they say
the things you don't want, you might need some day
Cos you missed all the warnings along the way
and there's no more returning yesterday
and you just weren't hearing what they say
the things you don't want, you might need some day

You couldn't keep to what you said
while I held you to what's in my head
and so we drifted away after a while
And I don't mind that you didn't turn around
just as long as you're alright now, you're alright now
Now that days have come and gone
not sure it matters who was wrong
or what was forgiven, I forget
Cos I don't mind that you didn't turn around
just as long as you're alright now
No I don't mind if your comes don't go around
just as long as you're alright now

The Ordinary Now
04:49
|
|||
|
When your pilot light's burned out
and you fear
your ship is going down
I'll be here, always near
in the ordinary now
I know it's harder than it sounds
to see through
when the night surrounds
a walling blues, no bridge back to
the ordinary now
You got nothing wrong
even though you can't really see that now
and it probably feels all too long
long before you've got this figured out
I know you don't think you're as strong
strong enough to find your way back home
back to what you knew
the ordinary now
it's coming for you now
like a sun
cutting through the clouds
you have won
you have come
to the ordinary now
