Lose You

I'm not a worrier
I pride myself on keeping my head on
I can get through most things
Keep my head above the water
Swimming strong
Though I realise I've had it pretty good
And maybe that's a part of the reason I could
Never be too afraid
But now I worry everyday
If I were to lose you
What would I do?
Would I fall off the shelf?
Or would I stay myself?
I'll never be ready
For you to take a part of me
So hold it here between you and me
And I can keep my sanity
I've got a paper and pen
And I'm trying to write it over again
Though we're listening to the same song
I'm hearing it all wrong
And though I realise I've had it pretty good
Maybe that's a part of the reason I could
Never be too afraid
But now I worry everyday
If I were to lose you
What would I do?
Would I fall off the shelf?
Or would I stay myself?
I'll never be ready
For you to take a part of me
So hold it here between you and me
And I can keep my sanity
I fear if I hold you here
I'll never wanna let you go
I feel pain and pouring rain
I'm drowning when I wanna float
If I were to lose you
What would I do?
Would I be ok?
Or would I lose it?
I'll never be ready
For you to take a part of me
So hold it here between you and me
And I can keep my sanity
So hold it here between you and me
And I can keep my sanity

My Blood
04:34
|

|
Fingers tingling
My toes are curled
My body's empty
Our sail's unfurled
Days of wonder
Lessons learned
It's all gone under
Bridges burned
And I don't know where you came from
As far as I knew
Nothing could go wrong
It's still raw and I don't understand
Am I bold enough to take a stand?
There's nothing I can do
I've got no way out
I'm still cold so I can't comprehend
I'm not sold on this, I won't pretend
I could shed my skin
But my blood will never change
A rose in winter
A kiss goodbye
A ray of sunshine
Throughout the night
When life takes a different shape
It's ok (it's ok)
To take some time, evaluate
Day by day
It's still raw and I don't understand
Am I bold enough to take a stand?
There's nothing I can do
'Cause I've got no way out
I'm still cold so I can't comprehend
I'm not sold on this, I won't pretend
I could shed my skin
But my blood will never change
Now I'm old enough to understand
And I'm sure enough to make a plan
There's something I can do
I'll find a way out
And now I can finally see
It's just another part of me
I have shed my skin
But my blood will never change
Oh, my blood will never change

What time is it?
By my watch it's 11:54
And we're in the town centre
By the tree in the square
And there's something in the air
This time two years ago
We were in this same spot
But right now you could hear a pin drop
There's a full moon
You can just see it through the mist
There's still Christmas lights up
But there's nobody here
Trees wearing party poppers
Somebody's been here
But right now there's not a soul in sight
And it's dead, absolutely dead
There's a full moon
You can just see it through the mist
There's still Christmas lights up
But there's nobody here
It feels a little different this year
It feels a little different this year

Silence
04:04

|
You say it feels like rain
You don't wanna leave this place
Afraid of the world
But I see it in your eyes
Mirrors reflecting light
Pink skies unfold
We can walk 'til it's dark, never saying a word, that's ok
We can talk it all out, go around 'til there's nothing to say
Caught in the silence
Hiding your face, tear-stained, for so long
I've seen that look before
I know that feeling of silence
Hiding away from all you know
But I won't go
I won't go
We would go everywhere
We never stopped for air
Nothing to lose
But I see it in your eyes
But that was a different time
Your innocence bruised
And I know that you think you're repeating the same old mistakes
But I wish I could take away some of that weight
Caught in the silence
Hiding your face, tear-stained, for so long
I've seen that look before
I know that feeling of silence
Hiding away from all you know
But I won't go
'Cause I know that feeling of silence
Hiding your face, tear-stained, for so long
I've seen that look before
I know that feeling of silence
Hiding away from all you know
But I won't go
No I won't go
