1. TIDES

The waves are crashing the tide is coming in,
The things among us are left to die now,
We dream of better days in a place
Where we are kings and its all over for you.
Just close the door now,
We'll have to ask ourselves the truth,
Let ease that trembling smile
That question marks the heart of our even in sight,
This is not exactly the story that I hoped for,
Tell me how I look today and ask me how I feel today.
And now, I'm growing weary,
I'm losing my mind.
Please guide me,
Show me the way out of this
(I'm losing my mind, please guide me, show me the way.
I'll bury the old, then we can find our home)
I'm going under now,
I'm going under now.
Will you remember me?
When this tide has taken me?
This tide has taken me.
The waves are crashing the tide is coming in,
The things among us are left to die now,
We dream of better days in a place
Where we are kings and it's all over for you.
This sea swells.


2. THIS WILL BE THE END OF US

Take my hand we'll make it this time
We'll find our way home and keep this alive at heart

Let me tell you something new
It's something that you never thought
Could have ever been so close
It's not that far when I'm around
I think about it every time
I touch your skin or hear your heart
But I know you'll never notice
If I keep it all inside

Why do you refuse to take my hand?
You brave the world on your own
Why do you refuse to take my hand?
You brave the world on your own

You've got me acting such a fool for you.
Sometimes I loose myself,
When I’m with you I loose myself

You send one smile
And it gets your way
But I keep holding back
This will be the end of us

You send one smile
And it gets your way
But I keep holding back
This will be the end of us

What makes you think that I'd find,
Find it so hard to speak the truth
Clearly we’re not on the same page as we used to be

We're scratching at the surface
If I let you in I'll bring you down
Suspicions make me nervous
I cover it up when you're around
We'll talk about the whether
Quote some quotes to make time pass
Or pull down the systems
The lies we told the walls we have
We can separate our shallow hearts
We can say who we really are

Why can’t you just accept me for the person I really am?
I have changed my entire life to suit your highest expectations

You send one smile
And it gets your way
But I keep holding back
This will be the end of us

You send one smile
And it gets your way
But I keep holding back
This will be the end of us

You send one smile
And it gets your way
But I keep holding back
This will be the end of us

This will be the end of us
This will be the end
This will be the end of us


3. STORIES OF...

I’m familiar with these surroundings,
I’m not at home but I feel content
And that’s because we are the chosen ones
And we will walk until we find a brighter life

There is always hope
Sure as the rise and fall of your chest
Don’t relax your lungs just yet

Hug the sunrise, and die with the sunset
Watch the dawn find the answers

Let the voices fill your head with stories of the untold,

The moments that I relived, before this all came to pass
They are the haunting ones, the haunting ones.

Let the clouds roll back
Take the tattered remnants from your past.
Let the sun rise, over our weary heads
We’ve come too far to come undone like this


4. A FLICKER OF RECOGNITION

This is my beginning,
The first chapter of what i'd call a real life.
I breathe this new air,
It leaves me so inspired and the truth;
I've never felt this high before.
It might be too soon to tell this but i've had it long enough.
I've gone in every direction that i have been pulled into.
This time i'll make it alive.
I could see this coming so long and i can't go to sleep with the light on.
Way,
Away you'll be away from me.
This could bring me down.
I'm ready to throw it into the river,
And watch it leave.
Life and love built the machine that leads us on.
Sometimes the light will leave us with nowhere to run.
There's no point in living with your eyes closed.
Will you still be smiling when they take you home?
And i never thought we'd make it this far.
I could see this coming so long and i can't go to sleep with the light on.
Way,
Away you'll be away from me.
This could bring me down.
So you've found yourself somehow searching for what is real.
It's something right in front of you,
Something trying to escape me.
The tables turning,
It's in my favor i've found my way now,
I've found my way


5. DESIGN PATTERN INTENT

Say how have you been,
The empty words escape between you teeth
and all the shadows in the surface of your smile,
Seem to overtake your all.
The whitest shades of skin i've ever seen.
All your innocence has gone tonight.
If you knew the truth,
Would it rescue you?
I need to know.
Could you feel alive.
With you eyes to the floor and your back to the wall.
All our fears collide.
Shatter intentions into patterns that mimic you.
All we need to know is when you'll make it home you'll make it home.
The smoking gun they ever hold and criticise to keep us small.
Before you know the damage is done.
Could you feel alive.
With your eyes to the floor and your back to the wall.
All our fears collide.
Shatter intentions into patterns that mimic you.
How fierce are the enemies.
How frail we are when they come for us.
This time we,
We're not turning back.
The hands on,
The hands on the clock.
We cant live,
A bitter life like this.
We need to find a better way.
Could you feel alive.
With your eyes to the floor and your back to the wall.
All our fears collide.
Shatter intentions into patterns that mimic you.


6. SACRIFICE THE HANDS FOR THE SAKE OF THE HEART

Trapped, inside, but you’re not letting go
Of what you thought was so perfect,
Pack your bags were getting out
Just follow my voice

Break down the walls to make a noise,
You break down the walls to make a noise

Far be it for me to walk out the door
If you're looking for answers
Have you tried in your own head?

This time I believe,
It's you’re time to shine,
No one will hold you down

Cut down, broken and tied in
You've been perfecting
The science in lying
You lost when you thought,
They'll never go, never go

The past has gone,
It’s set in stone,
We both know it all too well

Things we said, just don't make any sense
When every action turns the table on verbal intent
And I want to be free

From carelessly believing you live for me

I know that things look bad,
But trust me one door will close,
Another will open
I promised you so much more
And I intend on keeping that with me

Cut down, broken and tied in
You've been perfecting
The science in lying
You lost when you thought,
They'll never go, never go


7. SPEAK NOW OR FOREVER LOSE YOUR PEACE

Go put these embers to rest my friend.
I watched your burning heart grow cold with every breath to that vacant chest.
I can, I can relate to every fear that lurks and silently waits.
Failures long to be the centre of attention.
Every time that we're alone I could fold
To the truth that's pressing me to be told.
But I'm just too weak to keep you in the know.
It flows like water into your broken self.
Floods your mind,
Overflows to everyone else.
I watched the tears roll down your cheeks.
The kind of force that makes me weak at the knees.
No we're not that hard to break.
We're all just surfaces of skin with fragile spaces hidden underneath.
Failures long to be the centre of attention.
Every time that we're alone I could fold
To the truth that's pressing me to be told.
But I'm just too weak to keep you in the know.
It's so condescending when it makes common sense to constantly be down on my knees.
So I'll knuckle down just to figure this out.
Are we broken or missing a piece?
Failures long to be the centre of attention.
Every time that we're alone I could fold
To the truth that's pressing me to be told.
But I'm just too weak to keep you in the know.
I'm just too weak to keep you in the know.
I always think before I speak and it's getting the best of me when you are involved.


8. FOUNDATIONS

I can't believe in your distinctiveness.
The things you left me i lay to rest.
If it happened all at once would you even feel it change?
We've come so far just to lose feeling.
Sometimes i feel so sick inside just breathing in,
Breathing out.
Please just let me out,
Let me out.
I know that it's all in my head.
I've been here time and time again.
Please just let me out,
Let me out.
Is this all we have.
Is this all we have to try and build our foundations on?
Any day now this will be so simple.
This day has come to a close just tell me secrets,
Tell me lies.
Tell me i'll never tell and we can sleep safe in our own resolve.
These things that we lay beneath our heads.
You see it now,
You take it all.
Is this all we have.
Is this all we have to try and build our foundations on?
This has been such a beautiful day to be woken up.
Your glassy eyes,
They've seen so much.
They took my hand and showed me how far we've come.


9. WHERE THE SILENCE IS EASY

Wearing your heart on your sleeve,
Speaking words I know you never mean.
Where can I go?
When will we walk?
The silence becomes,
The silence becomes,
Oh so easy,
Oh so easy.


10. UNREAD PAGE, I'M READY

How you left me speechless when you said,
"Tell me what friends means?"
Will we ever be the same?
Times shared become so greater.
Pain shared becomes a whole lot less.
(I know that somehow)
Just turn your back and I'll be gone
(I can take this burden from my chest)
Why do we suffer leaving the ones that we love
On roads wide enough for one?

And we walk for our own sake,
We’ll use our memory to find this place.
The road it turns and it changes shape,
Who we are this makes.

I've been running in circles just to find you in my heart
I've wanted so long to change this
But for now I'll just keep moving
Come hell or high water
Come hell or high water
Come hell or high water
Come hell or high water
I keep my head held up high,
But my body has given up maybe I'll never win this fight,
Maybe it's time to set things right

How you left me speechless
When you said
"Tell me what being friends means?"
