1. ISLAND

I'm just a big dud
Foolish from the start
I make a wrong move
And the world just falls apart

And there's no cure for this disease
I'm making up, so whats the fuss

I live inside this
Head, and I'm at war
Hero and villain
Same type, keeping score

And I'm not sure what I'm to do
Inside these walls, not anymore

With my own life

Get off the island
And swim back to shore
Girl, I don't think I could last here one second longer
‘Cause in these waters, I'm done for

Now give me one good reason to stay here at all
When the fee is too big, our apartment's too small
Where's my life saver
When I'm screaming danger

I'm screaming danger

Get off the island
And swim back to shore

I'm just a victim
Of unfortunate circumstance
And this was my choice
So shit, well I'll be damned

And I got to stop dwelling on
What I could have had
All the times I could of-
Oh I just want to-

Get off the island
And swim back to shore
Girl, I don't think I could last here one second longer
‘Cause in these waters, I'm done for

Now give me one good reason to stay here at all
When the fee is too big, our apartment's too small
Where's my life saver
When I'm screaming danger

I just can't' stay here any longer, help
I just can't stay here any longer, help
I just can't

And maybe, one day
(Get me off the island) from your sand I'll float away
(Get me off the island) and never see you around again
(Get me off the island) island

Get of the

Get off the island
And swim back to shore
Girl, I don't think I could last here one second longer
‘Cause in these waters, I'm done for

Now give me one good reason to stay here at all
When the fee is too big, our apartment's too small

Where's my life saver
When I'm screaming danger
Where's my life saver
When I'm screaming danger
Where's my life saver
When I'm screaming danger

I'm screaming danger
Screaming danger
Screaming danger (get me off the island)


2. ERASER

I'm just a toy waiting for you to play me
I wanna make, just make you happy
There's no future I see with you in it
I just don't fit, not the right plastic

Oh, I'm not mad, lean on me, man
Oh, I'm not mad, you know me man

How many times I got to listen to your mouth go
How many times, how many times, how many times?

Turn the clocks back to the way things were
I never wanted to be this me
Erase, eraser
Show me back then the kid before the man
I don't think this me is who I am

Oh Middle age, bring me a crisis
What am I worth, does the truth hurt?
Identity ride the tails of disaster
Ease on the clutch, who gives a fuck?

Oh, I'm not mad, lean on me, man
Oh, I'm not mad, I'm not, I'm not, I'm not

Turn the clocks back to the way things were
I never wanted to be this me
Erase, eraser
Show me back then the kid before the man
I don't think this me is who I am
Turn the clocks back to the way things were
I never wanted to be this me
Erase, eraser
Show me back then the kid before the man
I never wanted to be this, just erase this
I never wanted to be this, just erase me


3. COLORS

I walk so tired, so opaque
His words, too many I can
Share our cultures casualty
Can't see the forest from the trees

We laugh at a time that came and went
Colors boast from the east sky, resting
Over nostalgia, we retract
And now is ours but the then we can't get back

And when the world comes crashing down
Don't make a move, don't make a sound
Just watch it fall, watch it come down
Feel it as it goes, does it feel good to let go

I lost myself along the way
Restless nights mixed with purposeless days
Counting forward, taking steps
To a better man, the one you can live with

And when the world comes crashing down
Don't make a move, don't make a sound
Just watch it fall, watch it come down
Feel it as it goes, does it feel good to let go

Full of color, all she's made of
Melancholy ways to count her scars
Her scars

Full of color, all she's made of
Melancholy ways to count her scars
To count her scars

And when the world comes crashing down
Don't make a move, don't make a sound
Just watch it fall, watch it come down
Feel it as it goes, does it feel good to let go

And when the world comes crashing down
Don't make a move, don't make a sound
Just watch it fall, watch it come down
Feel it as it goes, does it feel good to let go

4. HERE TO MARS

Hey, stranger
Been a long while since I've loved you or anything
How the times have changed
Distorted, a figure set in trend, emotionless
And the words lose all their means
(Goodbye, lost and long forgotten)
Discouraged might be the term you choose when you're look
Looking for an excuse
My company has gone mute
Since listening isn't my strongest suit
I'm leaving you with this here, okay?
Over and out there

Honey, it's in the stars
And you're my everything from here to Mars
And every word I say I truly mean
Dear darling, I hope I'm being clear
Cause there's no one like you on Earth
That can be my universe

Understood, give me a second chance
I know I could be your better half

It's in the stars
And you're my everything from here to Mars
And every word I say I truly mean
Dear darling, I hope I'm being clear
Cause there's no one like you on Earth
That can be my universe

Pardon me, I think I'm going
Out of my head and into the worst
A world without your verse
A world without you hurts
Please, I'm sorry
I will never let you go
I will never let you go
I will never let you go

It's in the stars
And you're my everything from here to Mars
And every word I say I truly mean
Dear darling, I hope I'm being clear
Cause there's no one like you on Earth
That can be my burning star
And you're my everything from here to Mars
And every word I, and every word I mean
Dear darling, I hope I'm being clear
Cause there's no one like you on Earth
That can be my universe


5. GHOST

At first I fight my curiosity
With welcomed hums and frightened fingers twitched anxiety
Here it comes a clean slate, picture perfect, no mistakes
How am I to keep from blemishing this masterpiece
How am I to know
How am I to know

As a boy, I watched the world through broken eyes
Given to me by a man, his wife, and all they had disguised
Uncertainty now keeps me asking how I lead the most
As they became or will I teach the examples of their ghosts

Free me from this body
I just wanna, wanna be on the outside looking in
Free me from this body
I just wanna, wanna be on the outside looking in

Free me
Free me


6. ATLAS

We carried on unnoticed, thinking that
All dream were ours for the taking
And out of that we found ourselves back
At the start of it all
So scarred and incomplete

Only now I've come to this moment in my life
Fitting pieces to a puzzle with no regrets
But if I had just one chance left
I'd hold on to it close
With what little confidence I have
And make no mistakes
As your life's surely about to change for the better half
Now on your mark, get set, clock starts to count
'Cause boy, everything's about to go down

So sleep tight, little Atlas
'Cause when your daddy goes off just you know
That you're the weight of his anchor,
The love that is guiding him home,
The love that's guiding him home (ooh, ooh, ooh)

Oh, I've had my share of leaving this retreat,
But never did it once feel anything like you, you see
And if there's one good thing that comes from my away
It's that you won't be anything like me
And so better for it you will be

So sleep tight, little Atlas
'Cause when your daddy goes off just you know
That you're the weight of his anchor,
The love that is guiding him home,
The love that's guiding him home,
The love that's guiding him home, {ooh's begin}
The love that's guiding him home,
The love that's guiding him home

So sleep tight, little Atlas
'Cause when your daddy goes off just you know
That you're the weight of his anchor,
The love that is guiding him home

So sleep tight, little Atlas
'Cause when your daddy goes off, 'cause when your daddy goes off
You're the weight of his anchor,
The love that is guiding him home

There's no running away from what's been here
Will you sink with the ship or will you burn it down?
Now give us the man that you've been hiding
'Cause this is your, this is your life now
This is your life now

There's no running away from what's been here (There's no running away)
Will you sink with the ship or will you burn it down? (Will you burn it down?)
Now give us the man that you've been hiding
'Cause this is your, this is your life now (This is your life)
This is your life now (Now)

This is your life now
This is your...
This is, this, this is, this is your life now


7. YOUNG LOVE

4 AM blank TV screen
Inside voice, the need to scream
The boards they creek
The wood it moans
If these walls could share the things they know
Oh, I had to let you go
Leave you alone, this broken home

You gave us so much
You believed in us
And we broke your trust
We made for the coast
And in the wrong hands
You were bruised, disposed...
Oh, please try and understand
It was Young Love
Learning its place, running away

Goodnight moon, goodnight Earth
This picture screams a thousand words
This portrait shows an unhappy man
Who did all he could, all he can

You gave us so much
You believed in us
And we broke your trust
We made for the coast
And in the wrong hands
You were bruised, disposed
Oh, please try and understand
It was Young Love
Learning its place, running away

Away
Running away
Away
Running away
Away
Running away


8. YOU GOT SPIRIT, KID

You, you keeping on screaming from the top of
Your lungs, Mr. Who Gives A Shit, just shut up
Oh, the podium is all yours, go right ahead
The plastic king of castle polyethylene
Go on, time to be a good little pig
You're worth it, oh you're so, so

'Cause when the rug gets pulled out from underneath
Just embrace the fall
Oh you got spirit, kid
You're number one
Go on living that farce
Cause nobody gives a fuck who you are

You, I'll never have the chance that you got
No, oh, I won't dwell, I'll just accept I'll be forgot... forgotten

'Cause when the rug gets pulled out from underneath
Just embrace the fall
Oh you got spirit, kid
You're number one
Go on living that farce
Cause nobody gives a fuck who you are

So why are you crying?
So why are you crying?
When you've got the world
When you've got the world
To command

'Cause when the rug gets pulled out from underneath
Just embrace the fall
Oh you got spirit, kid
You're number one
Go on living that farce
Cause nobody, nobody, nobody, nobody, no-o-o
Nobody gives a fuck
Nobody gives
Nobody gives a fuck
Cause nobody gives a fuck who you are


9. THE AUDIENCE

Please allow me to introduce myself
I'm the lie you use
Surrounded by snakes and talking sharks
Be mindful the words you choose

Their eyes reflecting with purpose, calling
"Welcome to the feast"
Will you follow their actions and play games
And as they step will you repeat formalities

Thieves of our time
Watch as they rape your integrity
March as the beat suggests
Time ticks forward, towards the bottom of undoing all that I
Once loved come take your piece of me, blood or bone
No matter, I'll still be here when you're

Don't cross the story you were always a maybe
Here they'll know absolutes
Oh used and abused now left for show
They lie from their perch to let you know
There's no letting go

Thieves of our time
Watch as they rape your integrity
March as the beat suggests
Time ticks forward, towards the bottom of undoing all that I
Once loved come take your piece of me, blood or bone
No matter, I'll still be here when you're
Done

Be here when you're
Done
Be here when you're
Done

This is my audience
Forever one together
Burning Stars
Cut from the same disease
Ever longing, what and who we are

This is the story of a boy who lost his way and found the

Unstruck, his courage lost
Damaged goods, a trust now long pre-

This is my audience
Forever one together
Burning Stars
Cut from the same disease
Ever longing, what and who we are

Take all matters into your own hands
Let them play with the coward who can command
Now you're just a memory
Of humanity

(The audience, I will show all of myself)

This is my audience
Forever one together
Burning Stars
Cut from the same disease
Ever longing, what and who we are

This is my audience
Forever one together
Burning Stars
Cut from the same disease
Ever longing, what and who we are


10. PEACE TO THE MOUNTAIN

I learned to keep quiet,
How to keep my distance.
Afraid to let strangers in,
How to keep my secrets.

Did I ever have,
An idea of what this should have been?
An unhappy accident,
Longing for an origin.

So let me go where no-one can follow,
Lost with my conscience, please bury me honest.
The song drones, I drink myself hollow,
Regrets grow regardless, please bury me honest.

I promise I'll go in peace,
No.
I promise I'll go in peace,
When I'm free.

Rejected to the brink,
Only so much I can change, an artist I wish I could have made.
Am I irrelevant?
Or will I get a chance to change, change the colours permanent.

So let me go where no-one can follow,
Lost with my conscience, please bury me honest.
The song drones, I drink myself hollow,
Regrets grow regardless, please, please baby bury me.

I promise I'll go in peace,
No.
I promise I'll go in peace,
When I'm free.

Peace to the mountain, girl I'm gonna go go.
Peace to the mountain, girl I'm gonna go go.
Peace to the mountain, girl I'm gonna go go.
Peace to the mountain, girl I'm gonna go go.

So let me go, where no-one can follow,
Lost with my conscience, please bury me honest.
The song drones, I drink myself hollow,
Regrets grow regardless, please bury me honest.

I promise I'll go in peace,
No.
I promise I'll go in peace,
When I'm free.

Peace to the mountain, girl I'm gonna go go.
Peace to the mountain, girl I'm gonna go go.
Peace to the mountain, girl I'm gonna go go.
Peace to the mountain, girl I'm gonna go go.
