Hard to Find

you've got the sense, to take apart my armour
and filter out all the flaws
i'd like the chance, to someday make up for
everything that i've done wrong
i just think that you are nearly gone
and it's my hope, i bring the tiniest bit out
of what's nice about you
i just think that, you are nearly gone
the way you help me, you can't help yourself
don’t you know baby
seeing you today, i think of the happiness
that i'd have if i stay
and if you change, the people who like you
will start to like you in different ways
i need you to say what you need to say

Stained Glass

you don't come to court no more
i don't see you at the park
we used to laugh about my right hook
but now we barely talk
crack crack they’re knocking at your door
it's no surprise
but you keep it all on the inside
and you pay the hidden price
i see you made it but the higher you climb
the more you're just a threat
carving up every minute of your time
there's so much to second guess
crack crack you’re feeling so sore
blame it on success
another scratch in your appearance
another blemish on the lens
the latest fix will hurt you even more
love is an expense
taught to track your every weakness
they try to see inside your head
you got me
you got me
you got me
you got me
we’re bound by the same chains
but they’ve got you on the floor
the way you look at me
when i say you’re beautiful
wrapped up in how the package looks
there's no true form
we got to free our imaginations
gotta find out what went wrong
it's hard to separate what you feel from
what you're taught
you got me
you got me
you got me
you got me
you got me
you got your own show now
you got your own show now

when you're left alone
with your own thoughts
your mind runs astray
when signals crossed
reveal hidden flaws
and second guesses, carry you away
it's so hard to please
when your heart can't find your sleeve
and you find out, you think you want what you had
you had plenty of time
to play both sides
enough to know which ball you wanna drop
but something don't feel right
and it hurts to see it ground you
before you take off
now I'm too afraid
don't know till it's too late
when you find out, there's no second act
we're not friends at all
we're not friends at all
we're not friends at all
we're not friends at all
we're not friends at all
we're not friends at all

Hope Springs Eternal
02:59
|
|||
this time of the year
it gets dark way too early
my faith curls into fear
and i want to spend the day in bed
your tea cup rests on my window sill
i’m writing lyrics from my kitchen chair
wondering how life got so immediate
and confused about what comes next
hope springs eternal
when love is shared between us
hope springs eternal tonight
tonight
tonight
i’ve been so disconnected lately
my headphones gather dust
we don’t seem to see things the same way
and i want to control my destiny this time
why is it that our paths run in parallel?
why are we so convinced that the world can never change?
why can’t i find someone to believe in me?
how have i lost my way?
my way
oh my way
hope springs eternal
when love is shared between us
hope springs eternal tonight
tonight
tonight
tonight

Who You Are
04:21
|
|||
your ambition’s in traction
torn between realities
assertive in your actions
terrified of what they'll think
bag of inconsistencies
you weren't born a genius
took it out on your family
can't tell when you're serious
a stranger to what you need
bag of inconsistencies
you're lying in a chasm
between who you are and what they see
imprisoned by your habits
pulling tricks to appear naive
do you know what love means?
you came in on a big wave
you got all the bread you need
promises unpaid
still can’t bite that hand that feeds
slave to your identity
you're a bag of inconsistencies
the blade don't hurt nearly as bad
as the one you imagine behind your back
you're damaged but you’re standing
do you have the will to speak?
to see around your blind spots
problems that are make believe
searching for your own truth
pushing all your fallacies
you act so cool
you're in so deep
bag of inconsistencies
you're a bag of inconsistencies
bag of it

Treading Water
04:25
|
|||
so many years since we turned our backs
couldn't tell how they split us in half
treading water but don't know you’re wet
they brought you here to forget
never at a loss for something to do
no one to make us feel of use
shirt slips over your shoulder
there's an infinite field of possibility
i wanna hurt i wanna hold her
and i wanna break this bench attached to me
everything she embodies she use to despise
killing herself just to feel alive
and i don't believe a word
it's a slippery slope i'm climbing
it's a slippery slope i'm climbing
it's a slippery slope i'm climbing
it's a
we bob our heads amidst the fray
no time to see ahead or behind us
so much fiction in our heads
they'll define the truth and uncover the liars
it's a slippery slope i'm climbing
it's a slippery slope i'm climbing
it's a slippery slope i'm climbing
it's a
it's a slippery slope i'm climbing
slippery slope i'm climbing
slippery slope i'm climbing
slippery slope i'm climbing

Did You Listen?
02:26
|
|||
today you told me we were parting
can’t believe that we’re through
it’s your decision you’re making
did you listen to your heart?
it’s been a week now since it’s ended
and i’m feeling pretty ill
i wonder do you even miss me
did you listen to your heart?
your smile has left some deep tracks
across my heart
but footprints in the snow don’t last
arrows miss their mark
today i found somebody new
your memory is fading still
could it be that i’d forget you
you should have listened to your heart
your smile has left some big tracks
across my heart
but footprints in the snow don’t last
i don’t know who you are
when you told me we were parting
couldn’t believe it was true
did you get what you were after
did you listen to your heart?
did you even listen?
oh d’you even listen, to your heart?
did you listen to your heart?

Streets

something’s going wrong on the streets of canada
throw some wood on the fire cause i feel a blizzard is ready to blow
Sammy is in the kitchen closing up the windows, i just want to see your face again
yeah i just want to see your face again
something’s going wrong, something’s gone wrong
something’s going wrong, something’s gone wrong
come closer to me, come out of the ice and snow
stay here with me where it’s safe and warm
the flames roar higher you’re still on the road
the clock is ticking slower, should have been here hours ago
oh my darling it’s almost morning
worries are welling up inside my throat
worries are welling up inside my throat
something’s going wrong, something’s gone wrong
something’s going wrong, something’s gone wrong
it’s freezing outside until it subsides
stay here with me where it’s safe and warm
something’s going wrong on the streets of canada
throw some wood on the fire cause i feel a blizzard is ready to blow
Sammy is in the kitchen closing up the windows
i just want to see your face again
i just want to see your face again
i just want to see your face again
i just want to see your face again
i just want to see your face again
i just want to see your face again
i just want to see your face again (it’s all gone wrong)
i just want to see your face again (it’s all gone)
i just want to see your face again (it’s all gone wrong)
i just want to see your face again (it’s all gone)

No Abuse
02:57
|
|||
you say you need a hand
don't know which one to take
you say you have to have her
to throw her away
to no aim
now you're feeling no abuse
but you're filled with regret
you give into your dark side again
easy come
ain’t easy go
working through something
of what i don't know
hate to be alone
you ruin the time you have
and think about all
you could do instead
now you’re feeling no abuse
you couldn't be more lucky
you got so much going for you
so little to show for it
you give into your dark side again
you give into your dark side again
you give into your dark side again

Paper
03:37
|

so bold
and so amazed
the ocean parts
and you get swept away
so lost
and so refined
you run your mouth
and still come out okay
unscathed
and paper takes the blame
so cold
and so exposed
an age goes by
and you don’t feel the same
so tired
and paralyzed
the work bled out your veins
but you came out okay
unscathed
and paper takes the blame
paper takes the blame
paper takes the blame
paper takes the blame
oh yeah
you have left a piece of you behind
a little more than kin and less than kind
you have left a piece of you behind
a little more than kin and less than kind
oh yeah
oh yeah
and paper takes the blame
paper takes the blame
paper takes the blame
paper takes the blame
so amazed
so refined
so exposed
and paralyzed
oh yeah

Inside Yourself
04:20
|

searching for that magic spark
spirit breaks you lose your heart to the walls
walls all surround you
but you gotta break them down
you got all the words but there’s no sound
trading wit for humour
it’s agony versus irony
there’s nothing in between
it breaks my heart to see you fall inside yourself
it breaks my heart to see you fall inside yourself
you’re still the centre of everything
but your edges are so fashionably fucked up
honey i haven’t forgotten
you couldn’t date till 18
one flash of her assassin’s smile and you fell hard
poisoned by perfection
no-one’s listening but the place is packed
you’ve came this far and there’s no turning back
it breaks my heart to see you fall inside yourself
it breaks my heart to see you fall inside yourself
you think you’re getting better
just getting used to the pain
it breaks my heart to see you fall inside yourself
it breaks my heart to see you fall inside yourself
for those afraid to play, it gets harder everyday
for those afraid to play, it gets harder everyday
you’ll find out
you’ll find out
you’ll find out
you’ll find out
you’re always saying that you’re not in the mood
too afraid to make the wrong move
you’re always saying that you’re not in the mood
too afraid just to make the wrong move
you’re always saying that you’re not in the mood
too afraid to make the wrong move

Easy to Lose
00:58
|

catch you off guard
catch you by surprise
thought no-one’s around
i saw it in your eyes
enemies don’t exist
your friends can go to hell
in imagined sins
too ashamed to tell
i need you to say what you need to say
i need you to say what you need to say
