It's whereabouts that won't cave in
Scenes of violence protect this
In aching heart that will begin
To wrestle with obstruction

And I'd stay for ages, if i could
To wake you
I'd stay for ages, If I could
To wake you

In taking hold to waste within
Coping as best as you can with;
The way it is does not have to be
As long as it stays unwritten

And I'd stay for ages, if i could
To wake you
I'd stay for ages, If I could
To wake you

Speak to me in tongues
And you speak in tongues to me
Speak to me in tongues
And you speak in tongues to me

And I'd stay for ages, if i could
To wake you
And I'd stay for ages, If I could
To wake you

And I'd stay for ages,
And I'd stay for ages to wake you

. . .


And if your wings lay unbroke would they still unfold
And if we collaborate in synch then we would not fault
So you tempt me into being what's sought after
They lay in casts
They lay in casts

Where is the need to know
I stop to think where you lost it
The chance was found and then thrown
Thrown away like before

So then you distance yourself from my mistakes
And a choice to adhere to you forsaked
And I cradle you in my own arms and wish
You can make your own away
You can make your own away

And I will ask of no-one

. . .


You trained for the stare
And I left you to muddle through
And you held your breath
To whatever depth you choose

But if features could mislead issues
And toil away til the sun would set
But to teach you is all conceited
And it could forfeit the choice you made
Make for a better day

To dissolve into it
Tried to cushion if you fall
To take lightly what is
Seeming to be in the know

And lest you forget
How futile the wait has been
Chastised for gain
You forfeited the only thing

And i'm the one who knows

. . .


A bruce to dampen bad feelings
That was an imprint of design
And succesfully try and change things
To make it worthwhile with time

Bored of this
Failed to curb the laughter x2

And trade off time as we label
Every detail that we might
Transubstantiate into what
We could hold to candle light

Bored of this
Failed to curb the laughter

I will awaken x4

Bored of this
Failed to curb the laughter x2

. . .


what could have happened to
take what's become of this
choices that he had made
moulds to most of it
but to hide in the shade
will keep the weather out
and to crawl into
the hole that hides you now

he's hidden it all just to cover his tracks
sutured what could be described as a fact
taking the trail that leads will find you,find you

back to the start of it
before it will be changed
if it's a little wierd
well then dig in a bit
it's more than the sum
of all the separate parts
to fool the thoughts i had
that you will take to heart
(chorus)
failsafe always tends to try
make way while you watch and wait
for those who take it on themselves
x2
(chorus)x2
i'll find you
find you
find you
x3
and i'll find you
yes i'll find you

. . .


In my hands, good fortune
Caress my equal, with slightest touch.
The sound of your voice keeps me still
And I'm sorry I avoid your questions.

And I'd never falter now we're even
(EXPLAIN WHY YOU WILL)
Take while you can its never even
(WHILE WE LAY STILL)
And I'd never falter now we're even
(EXPLAIN WHY YOU WILL)
Take while you can its never even
(WHILE WE LAY STILL)

A place to run, it's colder
And peace of mind takes
It's own time for us.
And in the same breath, we argue
And it must be a sign, of closeness I guess

And I'd never falter now we're even
(EXPLAIN WHY YOU WILL)
Take while you can its never even
(WHILE WE LAY STILL)
And I'd never falter now we're even
(EXPLAIN WHY YOU WILL)
Take while you can its never even
(WHILE WE LAY STILL) Here alone

And I'd never falter now we're even
(EXPLAIN WHY YOU WILL)
Take while you can its never even
(WHILE WE LAY STILL)
And I'd never falter now we're even
(EXPLAIN WHY YOU WILL)
Take while you can its never even
(WHILE WE LAY STILL) (X2)

. . .


And you tear into one another
As I sit back and watch again
This tainted pair do whatever
Don't realise the time they've spent

*chorus*

Shine forever
Let it go
Burn forever
Let it shine
Shine forever
Let it go
Burn forever
Don't you let go

So you part again for reasons
Knowing together you don't belong
So I'll walk away forever
Leave you to the hole that you've dug

*chorus*

shine forever
let it go
burn forever
let it go
shine forever
burn forever
DON't you let go

So you wait for me to go now(x4)

. . .


And the picture painted
Never fades away
And the canvas tarnished
Its better taken down
Did it fall on deaf ears
Were you listening
Did I neglect to tell you

That we should change into something
Seems as though you meant it
When you almost drowned
And you hindered all the progress
While living in denial
Seems as though you meant it
When you almost drowned

When you test my resolve
Did you stop to think
For once what you were doing
Its better taken down
The damage you are causing
Was almost far too deep
But the past lies behind us

But we should change into something
Seems as though you meant it
When you almost drowned
And you hindered all the progress
While living in denial
Seems as though you meant it
When you almost drowned

So I’ll just stand here
But I won’t wait for long
With perseverance
Don’t hold out too long
X2

Take a step back ‘cause it’s all you get
All you get X3

Seems as though you meant it
When you almost drowned

. . .


so strap yourself in again
and do you find yourself able to breathe
unhindered
we rise to the top again
and they watch as we fall into whole
bottomless
and i lie beneath you
and struggle for air
and if i could walk on air
i'd see where the wind would carry you
clear from harm's way
you mixed up the words you said
and the sentences don't make any sense
i know
like always
and i lie
yes i lie
strike the chord that i desire most
why can't i believe in me
so far down

. . .


See you around as a friend
Eight days the same you'd bore me just leave it
We prefer lies after rain
She said leave it i can't leave it

Say what you wanted to ask me
While you were sitting down
Say what you wanted to ask me
You opened up now

Fake plastic smiles to play games
Please call my name ignore me and feel it
I thought that i had won gold
She said leave it I can't leave this

Say what you wanted to ask me
While you were sitting down
Say what you wanted to ask me
You opened up now
Take it or leave it

Say what you wanted to ask me
While you were sitting down
Say what you wanted to ask me
You opened up now
Take it or leave it

. . .


We will not spiral down
I’ll do whatever I can to stop that
Three and a half years
Of emotional rollercoaster’s
Is enough to decide that some things?
Are worth the effort spent
Finally it's a realisation
That dawned on both of us and
With enough effort and knowledge
Of the past we don't need to follow
The path lay out by others
And it's gone too far
The words that guide us
Take your voice away
And I guess we can still chastise
Ourselves for taking too long to discover
What everybody else already knew
And all that was needed was the opening
Of the blinkered eyes long enough to
Register what was in front of us all along
I can't remember worse times
Than when we were apart
We won't stumble
Like we did before

. . .


the avalanche we strode towards
is nothing to us at all now
with all it's force we know
it cannot ever conceive to stand in our way
condescending
chased it to where
we're the first ones
to start our lives here
and changing patterns don't take a toll
we won't forget why we are here
with our hands held together the clouds part
as if they knew not to stand in our way
