Look at Us Now
07:06
|
|||
(Verse 1)
We could see the sun
For the first time in a while
We could see the shadows dance
And sneak a glance at all the people passing by
(Pre chorus)
All the days that we let slide
Like teardrops under eyes that cried
All wound up and tangled in a bed
(Chorus)
But when we come undone, there’s fire
And if we stay up late, we’re higher
Look at us now, we’re free
Why did it take us so long
(Verse 2)
We could hear the wind
For the first time since last year
We could hear the leaves collide
And pick up on our footsteps as we walk on by
(Pre Chorus)
Finding ways to clean a mess
It’s hard enough to just get dressed
All wound up and tangled in my head
(Chorus)
But when we come undone, there’s fire
And if we stay up late, we’re higher
Look at us now, we’re free
Why did it take us so long
(Bridge)
But did you know
That some flowers only bloom
In winter
And did you know
That I'll always want what i can’t have
Oh
(Chorus)
But when we come undone, there’s fire
And if we stay up late, we’re higher
Look at us now, we’re free
Ah
Why did it take us so long
(Chorus)
But when we come undone, there’s fire
And if we stay up late, we’re higher
Look at us now, we’re free
Ah
Why did it take us so long

Drone
04:35
|
|||
(verse 1)
I’m a drone
I do what you say
No matter what time of day
I’m a clone
I say what you do
Inside your head, I put on clothes to see what people think
(pre-chorus)
Oh, am I still me?
Everyone looks the same
Oh, am I still me?
(chorus)
Don’t let me go
How can I survive without your love?
I’m nothing but the gum under your shoe
But what else can I do? (One two three four, you're out the door)
(verse 2)
I’m a stone
I sink down deep
Why was it me that you decided to keep?
I’m a phone
I stick by your side
I obey your every command, always ready in the palm of your hand
(pre-chorus)
Oh, am I still me?
Everyone looks the same
Oh, am I still me?
(chorus)
Don’t let me go
How can I survive without your love?
I’m nothing but the gum under your shoe
But what else can I do? (One two three four, you're out the door)
(chorus 2)
I’m scared of bein'
Scared of bein'
Scared of bein' alone (One two three four)
Don’t tell me to leave (You're)
Tell me to leave (Out the)
Tell me to leave (Door)
(bridge)
Don’t let me forget
Why you still
Are not home yet
I disappear without you
Oh, I disappear
(chorus)
Don’t let me go
How can I survive without your love?
I’m nothing but the gum under your shoe
But what else can I do? (Don't tell me to leave, tell me to leave, tell me to leave)
(chorus 2)
I’m scared of bein' (Don't let me go)
Scared of bein' (How can I survive without)
Scared of bein' alone (Your love? I'm nothing but the gum under your shoe)
Don’t tell me to leave (One, two three four)
Tell me to leave (Your out the)
Tell me to leave (Door)

Open Up
03:18
|
|||
(verse 1)
I wanted you to know
Did I let it show
It’s really nothing
Don’t worry I’m ok
That’s bull shit
You know it too
(pre-chorus)
You’re right, it’s hard to
(chorus)
Open up
Open up
You can’t back down
Can’t back down
For life
(verse 2)
I want you all to know
But it might be slow
I’d never sacrifice myself for the short run
Not even for you
(pre-chorus)
You’re right, it’s hard to
(chorus)
Open up
Open up
You can’t back down
Can’t back down
For life
(chorus)
Open up
Open up
You can’t back down
Can’t back down
For life
(chorus)
Open up
Open up
You can’t back down
Can’t back down
For life

Forever
04:17
|
|||
(verse 1)
Would you accept it
If I told you the truth
Or would you discard it
Like our delicate youth
(verse 2)
Under the covers
Warm, safe, and care-free
Torturous feelings
I have to hide underneath
(chorus)
Tell me you need me
And I’ll cling to your arm
Forever, forever
You’ve got such a lovely face
I could go on and on about your lips and just how they taste
Forever, forever
(post-chorus)
Your touch
Is turning turning turning turning
(verse 2)
Oh how long can this last
Until someone get’s hurt
We could go farther
Cover our faces in dirt
(chorus)
Tell me you need me
And I’ll cling to your arm
Forever, forever
You’ve got such a lovely face
I could go on and on about your lips and just how they taste
Forever, forever
(bridge)
Don’t leave now
I’m in bliss
Never let me go like this
(chorus)
Tell me you need me
And I’ll cling to your arm
Forever, forever
You’ve got such a lovely face
I could go on and on about your lips and just how they taste
Forever, forever
(last chorus)
Tell me I’m worth something and I’ll love you till the end of time, forever
You’ve got such a damn nice smile
I’d like to see it forever, forever
(post-chorus)
Your touch
Is turning turning turning turning
Me on

Speak Too Much
03:30
|
|||
[EXPLICIT]
(verse 1)
I did all I could
You were not budging
I know I fucked up
But you gaslight me
It’s been way too long
Treating me this way
You narcissistic pig
Get out get out get out
(chorus)
I miss our broken history
But I just can’t, just can’t fall asleep
We all speak too much
(verse 2)
Don’t play with her heart (I’m all alone but I’m not afraid)
I was told one day (I’m all alone but I’m not afraid)
But I did not know (I’m all alone but I’m not afraid)
What to say, what to (I’m all alone but I’m not afraid to)
Destroy you
Destroy you
Destroy you
I’m not afraid
(chorus)
I miss our broken history
But I just can’t, just can’t fall asleep
We all speak too much
(chorus)
I miss our broken history
But I just can’t, just can’t fall asleep
(final chorus)
I miss our broken history
But you've destroyed, you’ve demolished me
I’ll just cast myself into the sea
We all speak too much

Swinging
03:50
|
|||
(verse 1)
Just listen
Water flows on by
It reflects the sky
Rest your head
Close your sullen eye
It reflects them
(pre-chorus)
One by one
One by one
(chorus)
Ooh
(verse 2)
It’s nothing
Is what you’d say to me
If I could only see
Swinging back
And forth all the time
It reflects them
(pre-chorus)
One by one
One by one
(chorus)
Ooh
(bridge)
Never enough
It’s never enough
You’re never enough
I’m never enough
It’s never enough
Never enough
It’s never enough
You’re never enough
I’m never enough
(chorus)
Ooh

Down
03:43
|
|||
(verse 1)
Right foot
Left foot
Step
Night time
Moon shine
Step
(chorus)
I’m falling down
Down without a sound
I’m falling down
Nobody else around
(verse 2)
Palms red
My head
Bleed
You spoke
I choke
Bleed
(chorus)
I’m falling down
Down without a sound
I’m falling down
Nobody else around
(bridge)
Nobody else around to see the worst of what has come of me
Is there a light for me, is there one for you?
Is there a light for me, or is it just the moon?
(chorus 2)
I’m falling down
Nobody else around
I’m falling down
Nobody else around

Split
04:10
|
|||
(verse1)
Soft and delicate
Smooth and serene
The skin of a baby
Glossy and clean
(pre-chorus)
Grandfather tells it
The cracks in your skin
When did it all begin?
(chorus)
It’s all the same
It’s all the same
Oh I thought
Oh how I was wrong
It’s all the same
It’s all the same
Oh I thought
Oh how I was wrong
I’m split, in two
I’m lost
(verse2)
Fast and broken
Rough and blurry
The mind of a baby
Forgotten and clean
(pre-chorus)
Grandfather tells it
The cracks in your skin
When did it all begin
(chorus)
It’s all the same
It’s all the same
Oh I thought
Oh how I was wrong
It’s all the same
It’s all the same
Oh I thought
Oh how I was wrong
I’m split, in two
I’m lost
(bridge)
It may not be visible
But there is a way
It’s dense but I’m determined
To look every day
(chorus)
It’s not the same
It’s not the same
I know
One day I’ll converge
It’s not the same
It’s not the same
I know
(outro)
One day I’ll converge
Like lines on ground, I’ll merge
The time, like walls, will blur
Like lines on ground, I’ll merge
