Seeing Stars 03:47
there’s nothing that you could say that would keep me away from you i’m hanging on to the day it’s the thought that gets me through you know I can read your mind it’s there like an open book your soul is what’s hard to find perhaps why it’s mine you took i’m seeing stars i’m seeing you i’m wearing scars i’m pulling through i’m lying awake at night but the nightmares follow me suffocating the light drowning everything I see if you saw me you’d think I was alive if you’d touch me you’d know you can’t survive the thought that gets me through is knowing this hurts you you know there’s no place to go just a world inside my head silence the radio everyone you know is dead
2.
find out where you’ve gone let me come along i should have known you’ve got a life of your own i should have known when you didn’t come home will you let me see your darkest memories i should have known best to leave them alone i should have known you couldn’t find your way home faster than the sun dreaming for just anyone to find away inside the hearts, the minds I could never fail you always left a trail when did I know that you wanted to go ? when did I know it was only for show ? break inside to see
3.
You and I 02:42
another rainy day commute crammed on the eastbound train I read the message left from you lets get away just you and I we will be together in the sunshine it will last forever the office walls, the ringing phones the noise is deafening can’t wait to see you after work i’m packing up let’s say goodbye and we’ll go together to the sunshine the days will last forever the ocean waves the windswept smile the sandy hair our tiny corner of the world seems far away
4.
She Is Real 04:11
the colors fade away the canvas starts to fray i’m leaving in the night a note on the porch light the desert skies are barriers the city glimmers in the rear view mirror all my friends said marry her don’t know that I would ask if she were here she is real the songs of yesterday the words we tried to say the letters never read the wishing you were dead the days are short, the years are long I never even thought I could be wrong a page turned in your favorite book: a thunderstorm reminding me again that she is real our better days behind us living our lives in our new worlds saved all of your photos but they’re gone
5.
all of your life lived in the dark how does it feel? kissed by the sun a second’s gone open your eyes summer’s gone, summer’s here fall in love, fall apart this your chance watching her go never to see her anymore spending the last years of your life chasing a ghost don’t fall in love again
6.
songs we sing the night, we’re now alone at last the day is now part of the past we dance and we sway, fall asleep after you say “the world can wait another day” only the love, only the night only the songs we're thinking of only the words, only the love only the the sunlight from above dreams we lost the years go by, we let them go to someone else’s life you know we dance and we sway, at 3am, your humor’s lost another drink and the line’s crossed lies we say pretending to be someone new hiding in plain sight and you dance and sway falling to the ground alone hanging on the telephone and crash
7.
realize the price you pay telling me that we are sinking save it for another day know the words your gonna say summer turns to fall again i never knew what you were thinking minutes, seconds, hours, days half a lifetime anyway to shine moving forward realize the price you pay when you see the world uncertain nothing left for us to say no more games for us to play summer turns to fall again i don’t care what you are thinking all the wasted hours, days half a lifetime anyway so shine moving forward I am the life the will pass you by all of these things have to wonder why
8.
tears or rain, I cannot tell a little smile, a lie you sell a dream, a crush, a love story a cigarette you’d share with me I’ll always need you can’t we see this through ? i try to let you go it’s best for us I know afraid to be alone please don’t hang up the phone
9.
hands open doors drifting silent into the glow, fingertips just a million dreams from here lightning in hand and the comets falling the fear shoulders in were you ever really here ? sky’s too bright cannot see any stars tonight chasing every single memory of you then you called you called cold blank stares in a getaway car the blood paper bag with keys to another day voices alive in the city spaces i can’t understand all the words are stinging me. sky’s too bright cannot see any stars tonight chasing every single memory of you try to see all the things you have given me I will wait forever I’ll l be here when you call then you called you called (you make my life so extraordinary)
10.
(for henry) i got a lot of things to tell you about this world to help you get through like the sun and ocean air i always will be there keep you close i’m there by your side I’ll wipe away the tears when you cry I hope I have the strength to see the time to set you free we cannot say goodbye and let you go let the sunlight lead us home you’re the stars in the sky you’re the reason I’m alive stay close to home stay close to me
