There's nothing left to say when its over
Could wait another day, but there?s no more
So please stop coming back to the matter
Let it be it will be better

Untie that little string on your finger
And let it swim away in the water
And please resist the urge to dive under
Let it be it will be better
Let it be it will be better

Chorus:
And walk on my friend walk on
There is no need to linger let it go
And go on my friend go on
And do what you need to
To get you to where you need

There's nothing you can do when you tire
Of things that you one loved but no longer
So please don't hide the tears with your laughter
Let it be it will be better

Release the little bird on your shoulder
It's hard now but its harder when she's older
And please don't change your mind she'll go faster
Let it be it will be better
Let it be it will be better

Chorus

Bridge:
Hiding under the table
Like I did when I was small and scared
It's a ways away from places I should clearly be instead
I've been busy finding places that exist inside my head

Chorus


. . .



Blue like my hands
Blue like my heart
I drown inside
So it came that i settled for
This raft in mind
Drift away, away, away down

You never fell i picked you up
I'm waking up early
No one ever feels like they're perfect
But i feel we're perfect here

I've got to speak
My eyes can't keep this secret down and gone away
I'm feeling it shouldn't be long until we both remember why
Why we kept each other around all this time

I sensed you'd come around, boy
And here we stand
It is so strange how we've come so far and nothing's changed

We are what we are
Come so far
To keep me down and gone away
I'm feeling it shouldn't be long until we both remember why
Why we kept each other around all this time


. . .



Sometimes it's hard to look you in the eye
The mess I've created it stands idly by
And I don't expect the dishes to do themselves
But that sure would be nice

Cause I am moving circles, falling back
My past has caught up to me, and I've lost track
Of what is history and what is a book marked page
I'd always hoped to come back to someday

Chorus:
Don't speak too soon
I'll likely shut my ears or shut down
I'm mostly floating
And I'm not ready to come down

Don't wipe away my tears so quickly
Do you even know if they're happy or sad
Maybe I need to let them fall
Clean me up and wash me out
And let me drown for a while

You don't have to hold my hand through this
You've got enough to carry on your own
I think you'll need both hands for that
I think for now I'd be better off alone

Chorus

Bridge:
I will be fine,
I need to grow
No expectations please
Because I don't know
Where I'm going or where I even stand
I'm just trying to find out exactly who I am

Chorus


. . .



I'm moving gently tender steps
I'm pulling weight upon my back
And I can see it's not much longer 'til
This weight becomes a burden making me stand still

And I can see another light on
Moving faster through this room
And I am waiting for your company
You say I'm not alone, well better let me see

Chorus:
You are what I dream
I'm breathing you, you're breathing me
It's better now that I can see
You breathing honesty

A conversation had
A void of silence grew
An overbearing aching in my heart led me to
Speak out my words, I trembled wishing that I knew

Chorus

Bridge:
And it was worth the silence worth the tears
That brought me here now to face these fears
Now I'm stronger, so are you
Here at this place we?ve gotten to

You are what I dream
It's better now that I can see
You breathe honesty


. . .



Don't cry darling
You know it hurts to see your tears
Don't cry
I know you think you'll never love again
Darling all things take time

2 years 3 months 5 days an hour ago they fell in deep
And ever since the tie has grown so strong emotions steep
Said, "I could spend forever in your arms, so can I please?"
The answer unexpected wrung his heart, fell to his knees

Chorus

This is the moment for so long she has been waiting
Benevolent no less becoming what it's meant to be
But as he passes no long glances she advances meets his face again
Not a smile not a tear no grin its over gone its sinking in

Chorus

Bridge:
Don't stop your fall, take it in, take it all
Watch your step, broken shards of your heart on the ground
Just keep the pieces safe for now, you feel that they could cut somehow
But soon I know you'll find a way, and piece it back again someday

Chorus


. . .



Bright night and we chase the moon searching for adventure
Hush

Our feet gracing mountain tops skipping cross horizons
Silhouetted against against the stars

I've tried so hard I'm searching through layers and trying to make out the words
Delicate designs distracting me from what I'm trying to find
A melody so sweet, from out the the walls it creeps to my ears
Such a sound I have long awaited to hear

We breathe, making little clouds, smiling through the dark and cold
As the wind breaks we shatter to the sky

Chorus


. . .

[No lyrics]

. . .



Get beneath the bed it's another attack
But when the monster turns man don't know how to react
And then daddy named it the singing bridge
In memory of the ghosts that lived here
My timing could not have been better
She cried

Chorus:
Although she's gone
Although it's over
A memory hangs on
A memory

(Repeat)

As the dust settles and the dust is rising
Up above the clouds a dove is crying
I leave a trail of copper faces all around the town in different places
I'd like to think that they'll be happy
Or try

Chorus
