Chains 03:11
lyrics

It's never easy to admit love It would be easier to back down and stay safe It's never easy to forget rage It would be easier to feel spite and break down Always harder when you're stuck in the dark Always tough for you to come back Never simple when you're looking for light Makes it sweeter when it goes right We'll always try again You'll always be my friend We have to break the chain You never cause me pain It's never easy to forget hate It would be easier to lay blame and stay scared It's never easy to get it right It would be easier to stand still and doubt it all Always harder when you're stuck in the dark Always tough for you to come back Never simple when you're looking for light Makes it sweeter when it goes right We'll always try again You'll always be my friend We have to break the chain You never cause me pain We'll always try again You'll always be my friend We have to break the chain You never cause me pain Make the change and break the chain Make the change and break the chain Make the change and break the chain apart We'll always try again You'll always be my friend We have to break the chain You never cause me pain We'll always try again You'll always be my friend We have to break the chain You never cause me pain Cause me pain

Can't Keep A Thing 03:25

What was that promise you made? Too bad it's too late to save Too bad it's not what you meant Can't tell where everything went What was that problem you lacked? Your nature held you to facts Can't make you proud of the waste Can't spoil that glory you chased What was that holding you down? Your chance to turn it around Her smile when you get it right Can't forget anything twice What was that promise you made? Too bad you made it your slave Can't tell what promise you kept Did it fade out as you slept? Just can't keep letting me down I Just can't keep letting me down Just can't keep letting me down Just can't keep letting me down I Just can't keep letting me down Just can't keep Too bad it's too late to save What was that promise you made? Can't tell where everything went Too bad it's not what you meant Your nature held you to facts What was that problem you lacked? Can't spoil that glory you chased Can't make you proud of the waste Your chance to turn it around What was that holding you down? Can't forget anything twice Her smile when you get it right Too bad you made it your slave What was that promise you made? Did it fade out as you slept? Can't tell what promise you kept Just can't keep letting me down I Just can't keep letting me down Just can't keep letting me down Just can't keep letting me down I Just can't keep letting me down Just can't keep Never let nobody get to me Just can't keep letting me down I Just can't keep letting me down Just can't keep letting me down Just can't keep letting me down I Just can't keep letting me down Just can't keep

Dunno what I want Dunno what I want You dunno what I want Dunno what I want Dunno what I want but I want it Dunno what I want but I want it You hurt so much So much So much Hey confused Mind was twisted by you Everything you know is wrong Everyone is broken I'm amused It's a symptom of abuse You want to feel alive again? I just want to feel anything at all Anything you want Want it too much Too much Too much Dunno what I want Dunno what I want You dunno what I want Dunno what I want Dunno what I want but I want it Dunno what I want but I want it You hurt so much So much So much You're enslaved You're inside the box you made Don't want to feel alive again Just can't risk the dreaming Fall in love as if you'll never have enough It's a fire you can touch Matters so much So much So much Dunno what I want Dunno what I want You dunno what I want Dunno what I want Dunno what I want but I want it Dunno what I want but I want it Want it so much So much So much

I blew a kiss I forgot myself I never wanted you off my shelf Got a tiny picture of you I keep it close to me Could I hold you for a second more? Would it make me want you even more? Nothing ever takes your place I keep you close to me I will never get sick of holding you I will never get sick of holding you Even though it was you who pushed me aside I will never get sick of holding you Only wanted to see your face Nothing ever takes your place Nothing ever holds you down I keep you close to me I will never get sick of holding you I will never get sick of holding you Even though it was you who pushed me aside I will never get sick of holding you Could I hold you for a second more? Would it make me want you even more? Could I hold you for a second more? Only wanted to see your face Nothing ever takes your place Nothing ever holds you down I keep you close to me Could I hold you for a second more? Would it make me want you even more? Nothing ever holds you down I keep you close to me I will never get sick of holding you I will never get sick of holding you Even though it was you who pushed me aside I will never get sick of holding you

Echoes 02:52

All I hear are echoes of you with echoes of me interrupting Your theories leave me bleary-eyed So I can't understand the thought of you and what you left behind You keep your reasons wrapped up tight So I can't understand the thought of what it takes to make you mine I couldn't think my way out Can't see past the thought of you Still it seems I never knew Anything you meant by what you said All I hear are echoes of you with echoes of me interrupting All I hear are echoes of you with echoes of me interrupting "I really need you here tonight" But then the words get turned around by you and pounded and denied It's not the point to be unkind I guess we missed it both right now and when we had our hearts disguised I couldn't think my way out Can't see past the thought of you Still it seems I never knew Anything you meant by what you said All I hear are echoes of you with echoes of me interrupting All I hear are echoes of you with echoes of me interrupting All I hear are echoes of you All I hear are echoes you I know it's not the point to forget I need someone's help to forget All I hear are echoes of you All I hear are echoes of you with echoes of me interrupting

Loving isn't fair, I know She forgets to say, I know I've been holding on so long And I've been hoping that you've waiting for my touch And I've been waiting far too much Hold on, I know what you've been waiting for Hold on, I know what you've been waiting for I know what you've been waiting for Heaven isn't here, I know Neither was your fear, I know And I've been hoping that you've been holding out for me And I've been holding onto you Hold on, I know what you've been waiting for Hold on, I know what you've been waiting for I know what you've been waiting for Hold on, you don't need nobody else Hold on, you're sure you need somebody else Hold on, you don't need nobody else Hold on Heaven isn't there you know Makes some people scared, I know Hold on to what makes you tick And keep someone hoping and holding on to you I'm holding onto you You're breathing like you don't mean it Make me believe you Hold on, I know what you've been waiting for Hold on, I know what you've been waiting for Hold on, I know what you've been waiting for Hold on

ou think you know You think you gotta know You think you gotta know everything to keep yourself sane You think you're sure You think you gotta be sure You think certainty will help explain the blame You think you're too good for wishing for anything Pandemonium looking over your shoulder Certainty keeps you where you can hate everything Keep a "maybe" hanging onto every thought, you should You think you win You think you gotta win You think that victory is all that matters now You think you play You think you gotta play Ripping faces off is fun you don't forget You think you're too good for wishing for anything Pandemonium looking over your shoulder Certainty keeps you where you can hate everything Keep a "maybe" hanging onto every thought, you should You think you're too good for wishing for anything Pandemonium looking over your shoulder Certainty keeps you where you can hate everything Keep a "maybe" hanging onto every thought, you should You think you're too good You think you're too good for wishing for anything

Don't let it taste Straight down the neck Achievable goals are achievable goals Ease as it gleans away layers of you You flattered as you flattened out Everything they say everythings about Disappears in the open air It's all in the kicks you inflict on yourself It's all in the kicks you inflict on yourself You can only understand when you try to understand You can only understand when you try to understand Too angry to forgive Too tired to forget Achievable goals are achievable goals Swerve and sanctify Radient impatience There's hell in the sky tonight There's grey in the loch tonight There's hell in the sky tonight We're dredging the sky tonight You can only understand when you try to understand You can only understand when you try to understand You can only understand when you try to understand You can only understand when you try to understand

Language Is God 04:16

When we talked We seemed to talk for hours We seemed to talk for days When we stopped In my head I cried for hours till it flooded my brain When we walked Nothing seemed to matter and we laughed at the rain When it stopped I tore myself in two because I couldn't change the world You wouldn't change the world When we spoke The language we used left us no room to move Then we broke And everything we wanted was gone Stop the clocks I can't believe it's over Lost the plot Can't hide anymore The clocks have stopped Silence isn't golden The language of god couldn't say all that needs to be said These are the days These are the days These are the days we'll remember These are the days we can't remember These are the days for changing the world

Relentless 02:31

Caught in your throat like the calmest of lies You should have learned it in half the time It's not letting go of you It's not letting go of you So far so glued to the core of you What makes the difference between it and you? As if you're a matador What were you thinking of? Don't let me stop you Don't let me drop you Take one last look Don't be the first to blink It caught a snag Your intuition So you ignored what it had to say You gave it back Your inhibition So you ignored what it had to say Endlessly ferocious it's got a grip of you It's nothing without you The city is relentless it's got a grip of you That's why it needs you So far so glued to the core of you What makes the difference between it and you? The city is relentless it's got a grip of you That's why it needs you Don't let me stop you Don't let me drop you Take one last look Don't be the first to blink It caught a snag Your intuition So you ignored what it had to say You gave it back Your inhibition So you ignored what it had to say It asked your name You said "Relentless" And you forgot what you aim to be It gave away its only punchline And you forgot what you came to see

Moments only hold you Grab you for a moment then they're gone just as quickly When nobody knows you you're streams of them constantly When valour was all that was called for She is empty She is empty now Wrapped inside your hapless vengeance She is empty She is empty now Moments only hold you Grab you for a moment then they're gone
