On My Level

|
You keep pushing me back, I'm telling you stop
I'm on another level, you're acting like I'm not
I never run away, even though I get afraid
I'm on another level, there's nothing I can say
(Chorus)
Take the pain away, I'm another level somewhere I can stay
Now you're seeping through, I get on another level where all I see is you
I never get my way, you got full control
I'm asking you to stay, but I'm on another level
You won't let me win, you never take my side
And I won't let you in, 'cause you won't even try
I'm always second best, and that's my greatest fear
Afraid I'll lose myself, and be stuck right here
I found a way to fake, I found a good disguise
To pull me through the day, without feeling what's inside
I'm always on a level where it's just to much to deal
Get caught up in myself, realize it isn't real
I'm always on a level when I should be right here
Time's slipping away, and that's my greatest fear

Jumping Fences
04:47
|

|
I wanna breathe it in, I'll never close my eyes
I need to feel the wind, can't waste my time
You won't love me forever, this can't always be mine
(Chorus)
When the world is at its end, and the fog comes rolling in
Will you think about the way we used to be?
When the only sound you hear is the drop of your own tears
Will you think about the way we lived so free?
Jumping fences, swinging trees, open fields, and stormy seas
Heavy hearts and summer breeze, you and me
When your walls come crashing down, will you think about us now
And wish we were forever in our teens?
I wanna see the sun, I need to make this last
Some things you can't outrun, don't let me grow up fast
I can't fight the fire, soon this will my past
And lord show me where it is, 'cause I know heaven's on earth
And if not I'll get there when I die, I pray for what it's worth
And lord I've had it all along, this is all heaven to me
If not I'll get there when I die, where I've always longed to be

Forever & Always
04:20
|

Don't, don't say you're getting older
Don't, don't say you're slowing down
Don't, don't say you're uninspired
Don't, don't say your time is running out
(Chorus)
'Cause we're young and we're beautiful forever and always
We'll be incorruptible can't take it away
You had me staying up all night, that can't change you were always mine
'Cause we're young and we're beautiful forever and always
Don't, don't say that you're changing
Don't, don't leave me in this alone
You, you know I'm scared of the future
You, you, you, you make time go slow

A World
03:25
|
|||
|
I found a world with no gravity, free to hide, free to breathe
Stay in this world for an eternity, somewhere beyond the sea
I found a world with no alibi, free to fall, free to fly
Stay in this world my paradise, somewhere beyond the sky
I found a world with no reality, always there, always free
Wish this world was all that I could see, somewhere inside of me
I found a world where there's no goodbye, always yours, always mine
Stay in this world and waste all my time, somewhere inside my mind
I never had the nerve to stray far from my world
And I never had the guts to get more than enough
I never wasted time to stop and draw the line
And never had the heart to tear my world apart

It's A Trap
04:53
|
|||
|
Stay, something didn't want you to stay
Something wanted you gone, far from everyone
So go, leave us all alone
Something pulls you back, something we lack
(Chorus)
It's too late to change now, it's too soon to hide in the crowd
Stop slow down before you jump ahead, pull me out say it's all in my head
Smile, just hide your eyes
The show what's real, know how you feel
Talk, but I can't hear
Face to face, I can't relate
Control, it's under control, just repeat it and believe
Control, who needs control, get your spot lights off of me
Control, they got control, see the years overlap
No control, none at all, turn back it's a trap

Only One
04:25
|
|||
|
Everybody's jaded, slowly faded
Just like the sunset of the last day on earth
Everybody's dying, sick of trying
Everything we believed in has lost its worth
I don't believe that, I'll fight till my last breath
I'll find heaven in the sky
And I feel like I'm the only one who still believes in love
So tell me that I'm the only one that you've been thinking of
All my friends have lost their way, been beaten down and cast astray
But no feeling comes above
And I feel like I'm the only one who still believes in love
See the city shining, heartbeat climbing
Just like the sunrise after long summer nights
All the birds are singing, old times just swinging
All we believe in is written in the sky
And I believe that, I'll fight till my last breath
I'll find good in goodbye
And I feel like I'm the only one who hasn't shut my door
And I feel like I'm the only one who breathes it anymore
Tell me you think that it's divine, it's okay to burn it's fine to shine
I will never get enough
And I feel like I'm the only one who still believes in love

Drowning
04:34
|
|||
|
Take me, drift away, like tides in the sea
Feel me, skin and soul, a heart that bleeds
Drowning, I let the waves crash over me
Barely breathing, I let myself think this was easy
Watch me, feel the space breathing in between
No one feels it, like you feel it, no one sees it like me
Drowning by your hand, wash me off, wipe me clean
Need to feel it in my lungs, fully taking over me
If you are the ocean, you are the sea
I need you to drown me

Open Wounds
06:07
|
|||
|
Baby, can we get out of here this city's just holding us back
Take me somewhere far away from here, everything's so pitch black
Never knew quite what to do, till I saw you
(Chorus)
He laid me down in the soft grass
He kissed me on my open wounds
He said between each breath
"I can't believe it's you"
In the ocean at midnight
Under the pale light of the moon
I would wait for a lifetime
I can't believe it's you
You said, "Please stay, I promise it's all worth it when the sky's falling down
Jet trails, sunset, even heaven will be falling on us now"
Never knew quite what to say, till I saw your face
Keep singing my name, keep singing my name
Calling us back home, but we don't need that
Keep singing my name, keep singing my name
If all I see is you, I'll never look back
I'm still singing your name, still singing your name
When they take my voice I'll still be singing it
Always sing your name, always sing your name
Even when you're gone, I'll still believe in it
Even when you're gone, I'll still be singing it
Tell me I'm your world, tell me I'm your sun,
Tell me I'm your religion
Tell me I'm your sky, I'm your summer night
Tell me I'm your freedom
Tell me I'm your sea, tell me I'm your hope
Tell me I'm your anthem
Tell me I'm wind, tell me I'm your rain
Tell me I'm your freedom

Off The Rails
02:25
|
|||
|
I really do believe as of now I'll die alone
Don't know how I see so much right in so much wrong
I seem to fall apart at every bump at every turn
No one knows a thing, no one tends to my slow burn
(Chorus)
And I'm off the rails, but that's okay, 'cause I'm okay
And I'm hardly there, but that's okay, 'cause I'm okay
I'll just be the rock, that's holding up my world
It's my turn to crack, it won't be seen, it won't be heard
I guess I wasn't enough, I wasn't worth your time
My mind's a mess, but it's fine, I'm always fine

On My Level (Pt. II)
02:06
|
|||
|
I'm on another level, I'll always be this way
I've got an ache inside me, something I can't change
I'm on another level, I feel it everywhere
Everything slows down, and your just standing there
I'm on another level, I can't even fight
Burning like a fever, but everything's alright
I'm on another level, there's nothing I can do
Can't hold myself together, 'cause all I see is you
