"Anchor"

Forget everything that was said before
Now is the time to begin and piece it all together again
But doors close with every second
Forget everything that was said
It's only been a week since you faltered last
I'm praying it won't happen again
How many times do you need to see how you can tear me apart
Forget everything that was said
Now is the time to piece it all back together
I hold my head in my hands and dream of times when I can sleep without fear
Breathe freely and emphasize the truth that lays within us



"You Don't Get Gold For Second Place"

Here comes that feeling back again
and this time it's not fading
I guess now we're gonna have to act
and stop this pretending

The gap grows larger yet we're both still hanging on
What happened to those early smiles?
Isn't it time we came around?
Isn't it time we came around?
There is no consolation

Don't forget what time and where
I don't know when I'll get home
But I'll bear it in mind
But I'll bear it in mind
We'll compare hangovers tomorrow

The gap grows larger yet we're both still hanging on
What happened to those early smiles?
Isn't it time we came around?
Isn't it time we came around?
There is no consolation

[screaming] It's the whole love in love equation
Routine against the unknown
Life's a gamble anyway
This has no conclusion

I'm bored (I'm bored)
of these (of these)
average days
I'm bored (I'm bored)
of these (of these)
average days
I'm bored (I'm bored)
of these (of these)
average days
I'm bored (I'm bored)
of these (of these)
average days

The gap grows larger yet we're both still hanging on
What happened to those early smiles?
Isn't it time we came around?
Isn't it time we came around?
There is no consolation
There is no consolation
There is no consolation


"A Heartbeat Behind"

As the bar is raised the spotlight appears, glaring at you how do you reason with it
A loud bellowing (a heartbeat behind) a beat behind the rest
Turn and face what's been postponed
Just like the sun and the sand you rise, offering your...
Romance of the strike my name bleeds from your lips
What do you think is left? It is a lottery
A loud bellowing (a heartbeat behind) a beat behind the rest
Turn and face what's been postponed
Just like the sun and the sand you rise
Offering your hand as if an apology could be
Could be accepted, now it's a lottery man


"A Mind With Two Faces"

I hope you feel with this choice you took
And feel the strain of what you began
It should have been so different
You need to find your path, he said
I'm gonna watch and learn
Taste the difference and imagine how I'd feel o prove you wrong
If you play with fire you're bound to get burnt
If you don't have a choice then we'll have to work together
Never had it been easier to choose
But somewhere you went wrong
Claiming insecurity, unable to claw your way back
Drowning in love I'll turn against the crowd and begin to walk home


"My Scandinavian Ride"

I see your eyes they catch my smile
Traces of life leap down my spine
So unsuccessful in the past
Breath of fresh air touches my face
For the first time let's break this trend let's break this trend
It hits me hard for the first time let's break this trend
Life me up from where I've fallen
Venturing over, take my hand, lead me now emotionally
I can't believe this is happening
My desperation's overcome
For the first time let's break this trend let's break this trend
Lift me up from where I've fallen
You lift me up from where I've fallen
Put everything back where it's supposed to be
You open my eyes and show me what is there


"Boogie Nights In Michigan"

She said "I can't help how I feel"
so I just stopped thinking
and everything faded
and I had lost her
I knew that it was all my fault
I didn't know why
And as the time passed I thought I had it under control
but she had her eyes, smile, and that face

The one night when everything was perfect
Echoes through every smiling couple in every film
And how close was our happy ending
Or was it just a side of us that we should not have seen

And all of this just paved the way
for my mind to open up
'Cause without the sour
the sweet isn't as sweet
And all those times I spent alone
felt like forever
And as the time passed I thought all was lost
'til I met you and my life all fell into place

The one night when everything was perfect
Echoes through every smiling couple in every film
And how close was our happy ending
Or was it just a side of us that we should not have seen
Should not have seen

Should not have seen
I can't help how I feel
and it faded
I just stop thinking
about her eyes, her smile, that face
Have I lost her?
([screaming] And I lost her)
(I lost her)
[screaming] And I lost her
(I lost her)
I can't help how I feel
it faded
[screaming]

The one night when everything was perfect
Echoes through every smiling couple in every film
And how close was our happy ending
Or was it just a side of us that we should not have seen


"Take To You"

I'm torn between the obsessive and reality
Being heard but not listened to breaks me down again
The world passes by and yet it all remains the same
But what gives you the right to shame yourself and try to break us down hey
Outburst after outburst leads me to believe that this will last forever
You may as well bury me alive
There's nothing here for me
Lack of security within yourself generates this depression
Another name for dormant strength
I'll take to you like blood to the heart if you listen to what I have to say


"The Night Before The Morning After"

Your face turned red as you came in from the cold
Why is this so civilized, why is this so...
Where's the screaming that I've come to expect
You put a reassuring hand upon mine
We have had the best times but now we must move on
And if I keep telling myself that this is for the best then
Maybe I can carry on, maybe I can carry on
Break ups are supposed to be insults and screaming
Not conversations and one last night
So where do we go now?
Well... I have to leave


"Delicious 53"

Destined to become zero, staring up this long path
The guidance from within, blinded by the light
I trip, I'm falling fast, tumbling to the ground
A sudden glimpse of light I take a step forward
And take a step back, and shut my eyes
And it is such a quiet peaceful place
I run I run until I hit full speed never turning back back back
The clouds collide, and I am startled by thunder
The guidance from within blinded by the light
I trip, I'm falling fast, tumbling to the ground
The sun is beaming down, darkness turned to light


"Reading Into It"

I light a cigarette and try to erase everything, that you did to try and make me smile
A tear rolls down my cheek, how can you still breathe the air that I breathe
Knowing the heartache that you are responsible for
And I erase everything I've known and I try to smile, and it has all gone wrong
