01. It's Far Better To Learn - Lyrics:

You'd better learn that this will not blow over
And over
High above, they're taking over you
And you should know
I will not let you go
(Let you go)

What is my body worth?
Was there a price-tag before?
There's something greater then
What is my body worth?
Was there a price-tag before?
It's not gonna change you

We walk around
But never turn to see what we have done
(What we have done)
We choose our moves so carefully for you
(Carefully for you)
I will not let you go
(Let you go)

What is my body worth?
Was there a price-tag before?
There's something greater then
What is my body worth?
Was there a price-tag before?
It's not gonna change you
What is my body worth?
Was there a price-tag before?
It's not gonna change you

I believe in nothing
I believe in nothing at all
I believe in nothing
I believe in nothing at all

What is my body worth?
Was there a price-tag before?
There's something greater then
What is my body worth?
Was there a price-tag before?
It's not gonna change you

What is my body worth?
What is my body worth?

02. Sleepers - Lyrics:

What happened to us all?
Have we slept through it?
Taking hits off the surface
It's too hard to swallow when
Their judgements are concentrated
On everything they know

Was it all enough? (No fair)
Or did it wake you up from your sleeping?

[Chorus]:
I've overheard it once
This has gone on before
It's too one in the same
When you're accounted for
We seem so far away from
These things we used to know
We seem so far away from
Everything we are

Everyone that moves around me
They're saying nothing
That makes the fight a blur
Say we're something that no one wanted to hear
They know that everything is wrong

Was it all enough? (No fair)
Or did it wake you up from your sleeping?

[Chorus]:
I've overheard it once
This has gone on before
It's too one in the same
When you're accounted for
We seem so far away from
These things we used to know
We seem so far away from
Everything we are

All we are is golden
This won't mean a thing
All we are is golden
This won't mean a thing.

03. It's So Simple - Lyrics:

I never thought you would lose yourself
The hardest part was falling down again
(And getting up again)
I'm a fool to watch you walk away
Are you bothered by the choice you made?

When we fall to the ground
Slowly we're safe and sound

It's so simple to be afraid
It's so simple when you know who you are
It's so simple to be afraid
It's so simple when you know who you are

I caught you lying to yourself
Now everything is spinning round and around
(Then standing still again)
Well I'm a fool to watch but never say
Are you bothered by the choice you made?

When we fall to the ground
Slowly we're safe and sound

It's so simple to be afraid
It's so simple when you know who you are
It's so simple to be afraid
It's so simple when you know who you are

But maybe we were wrong...
When will you know
That you can feel belonged
I think you fell in deeper than you imagined

It's so simple to be afraid
(It's so simple)
It's so simple when you know who you are.

04. Voices - Lyrics:

I miss the part, when we were moving forward now
(On our way down)
But maybe someday, I'll be something more than love
Just know I'll never tell
And when you're on your way down
(Through the clouds)
And you're waiting for your body's re-entry again

We speak in different voices
When fighting with the ones we've loved
We speak in different voices
Why can't we say what we're thinking of

I'm missing parts, now that you've told me everything
(On our way down)
And I was blessed and I've forgotten how to love
You said you'd never tell
And when you're on your way down
(Through the clouds)
And you're waiting for your body's re-entry again

We speak in different voices
When fighting with the ones we've loved
We speak in different voices
Why can't we say what we're thinking of

Not even I will tell...

We speak in different voices
When fighting with the ones we've loved
We speak in different voices
We say these things to know they're real.

We speak in different voices
When fighting with the ones we've loved
We speak in different voices
Why can't we say what we're thinking of

We speak in different voices
When fighting with the one's we've loved
We speak in different voices
We speak in different voices

To know they're real, real
I'll never...

05. Finding Home - Lyrics:

If only I had truthfully seen
That night we'll never re-live
But you and I could not go and walk away
Just close your eyes
You'll never see me crashing down
I see where we had come in doubt
I'd be lonely if you weren't so proud

I have seen so many loving faces
They turn back and leave with looks of regret
The road goes and I am finding home in it

But you and I should not play those games
The world is coming to an end
It's just the way I see my face
And I can never believe
(Now I can see it)
Now I see where things are turning 'round
And I'd be lonely if you weren't so proud

I have seen so many loving faces
They turn back and leave with looks of regret
The road goes and I am finding home in it
The road goes and I am finding home in it

I saw him fly
He's never looked this way
I saw in his eyes
He's never coming down

I have seen so many loving faces
They turn back and leave with looks of regret
The road goes and I am finding home in it
The road goes and I am finding home in it
The road goes and I am finding home in it
(And now you're finally home)
And I am finding home
(And now we're finally home)
And I am finding home in it.

06. Follow And Feel - Lyrics:

Don't let them know you're watching the situation crumble
(Situation crumble)
These things, they take time
And they know, yes, they know they should be better now

She's watching me awkwardly from a distance
Should I care?
Is there something more I should have known?
(We know them)
I know that I wonder

They took his crown
There's nothing more left of him now
(But he will be okay)
I appreciate, now that they choose to ignore
I can set her free to go without a payment plan

She's watching me awkwardly from a distance
Should I care?
Is there something more I should have known?
(We know them)
I know that I wonder

Will she go or follow?
Follow, please follow me home
(Me home)
Follow, please follow me home
This won't end like last time
The things you swore, they never made me feel anymore

She's watching me awkwardly from a distance
Should I care?
Is there something more I should have known?
(We know them)
I don't need to wonder.

07. Come Close - Lyrics:

Remind yourself
That they are the ones who will hold you still
My thoughts exploding in thousands of pieces
(Thousands of pieces)
It looks so beautiful when, I know it's not love cause

I've been trying
(As we are waiting)
I've been trying to let you know
So come close, this is who we are
Come on, you can show yourself
So come close, this is who we are
Come on, you can be yourself again

When you notice yourself
As something more than just a reflection
You'll see (you'll see)
It's not me (it's not me)
I guess I'm trying to say
I know it's not love, but...

I've been trying
(As we are waiting)
I've been trying to let you know
So come close, this is who we are
Come on, you can show yourself
So come close, this is who we are
Come on, you can be yourself again

Now you've found love, it's shining through
Come close, this is who we are
Come on, you can show yourself
So come close, this is who we are
Come on, you can be yourself again

Come close, and I will carry you
Come close, in my arms.

08. I Never Wanted To - Lyrics:

We've had one chance to take back
But over and over again
(I'll clean your wounds tonight)
So we can rewind it all 'til I come inside
I'll tear in two and never lie to you
('Cause you wouldn't take me home)
Your eyes are yet to be clear now
('Cause you wouldn't take me home)
You were right and I wasn't listening
(I never told you what you were missing)

I never wanted to hear
(I never wanted to)
We are the only ones we are running from
I never wanted to hear
(I never wanted to)
We are the only ones we are running from

This was the only way we knew how to make everything just OK
(I'll make it up tonight)
The sun was two steps too close with his waking eyes
We'll make believe that everything's all right
('Cause you wouldn't take me home)
Your eyes are yet to be clear now
('Cause you wouldn't take me home)
You were right and I wasn't listening
(I never told you what you were missing)

I never wanted to hear
(I never wanted to)
We are the only ones we are running from
I never wanted to hear
(I never wanted to)
We are the only ones we are running from
I never wanted to hear
(I never wanted to)
We are the only ones we are running from
I never wanted to hear
We are the only ones we are running from

I want to break it off
We should stop 'cause there's nothing going on (On)

I never wanted to hear all the things that you told me
I never wanted to hear
(I never wanted to)
We are the only ones we are running from
I never wanted to hear
(I never wanted to)
We are the only ones we are running from
I never wanted to hear
(I never wanted to).

09. Collapse - Lyrics:

So, tell me is it right?
To feel like we're only getting smaller
And if we were to find the feeling
But I'm only treading water
We've made a few mistakes, it's not worth it to say
(We all fall for the sound)

'Cause we are the only ones, we will get up
And we are aware, 'cause we've been through it
And we are the only ones, we will carry each other on our own

Believe the sound when the truth will send you falling
You see the lights but your mind isn't open
Now I hear you calling
We've made a few mistakes, it's not worth it to say
(We all fall for the sound)

'Cause we are the only ones, we will get up
And we are aware, 'cause we've been through it
And we are the only ones, we will carry each other on our own

Open your eyes and let all the light in
Open your eyes up a little more
I'm sure it will soon come out

'Cause we are the only ones, we will get up
And we are aware, 'cause we've been through it
And we are the only ones, we will carry each other on our own

Open your eyes and let all the light in
Open your eyes up a little more
I'm sure it will soon come out.

10. You're Not Alone - Lyrics:

It's just like him
To wander off in the evergreen park
Slowly searching for any sign
Of the ones he used to love...
He says he's got nothing left to live for
(He says he's got nothing left...)
And this time I think you'll know...

You're not alone
There is more to this, I know
You can make it out
You will live to tell

She's just like him
Spoiled rotten
Confused by the lies she's been fed
And she's searching for no one...
(But herself)
Her eyes turn to green and she seems to be happy
That she is here
And this time I think you'll know...

You're not alone
There is more to this, I know
You can make it out
You will live to tell

You're not alone
There is more to this, I know
You can make it out

(There is more to know)

We're not alone
There is more to this, I know
You can make it out
You will live to tell...
(So tell me)

You're not alone
There is more to this, I know
You can make it out
(Make it out)
You will live to tell
(Live to tell)
You're not alone
There is more to this, I know
(And I know)
You can make it out
You will live to tell...

You are not alone
You're not, you're not alone.

11. Bury Your Head - Lyrics:

Bury your head
Bury your head

I was feeling fine
You'll be coming clean tonight
And I'll be falling down with you once again
Call me your valentine, call me once tonight
And I will then say it's okay

The things you've said, I'm rehearsing them
The things you've said, I'm rehearsing them

They went back on us
(Closed eyes rolled back couldn't step it up)
I could know him to come over when
It's the thought that emerges
(Take back couldn't step it up)
I could never love, your eyes have changed

Bury your head, has the child smashed you down
And the psalms will never call me again
(Fall down below)
I'll sleep tonight
(When you're okay)
And I will then say it's okay

The things you've said, I’m rehearsing them
The things you've said, I’m rehearsing them

They went back on us
(Closed eyes rolled back couldn't step it up)
I could know him to come over when
It's the thought that emerges
(Take back couldn't step it up)
I could never love, your eyes have changed

They will be the ones to see him come
Is this what you call love?

They stole my lies
You write it all
They wandered around and 'round my mouth
They stole my lies
You write it all
Stole it all
They have been the ones to see enough

They went back on us
(Closed eyes rolled back couldn't step it up)
I could know him to come over when
It's the thought that emerges
(Take back couldn't step it up)
I could never love, your eyes have changed

You'll be coming clean tonight...

12. Some Sense Of Security - Lyrics:

So what have we done?
With X and O's to mark our way home (home)
It seems as though we've forgotten
The way we move
Can we save ourselves?
From the one we're becoming

Please monsieur, remember
Don't tell me how to get somewhere better

Why write with confidence?
Why try to save them?
We try to not forget
It's so much better there
Did you think you could make it on your own?
It was so much better there

So what have you done
To make yourself a little bit happier
I can feel the vibrations
When you said I'd feel nothing
I'm giving up, so give it up

Please monsieur, remember
Don't tell me how to get somewhere better

Why write with confidence?
Why try to save them?
We try to not forget
It's so much better there
Did you think you could make it on your own?
It was so much better there

(This won't mean anything..) - 2x.

This won't mean anything
This won't mean anything tonight
This won't mean anything
This won't mean anything tonight

Why write with confidence?
Why try to save them?
We try to not forget
It's so much better there
Did you think you could make it on your own?
It was so much better

(This won't mean anything)
(This won't mean anything tonight...)

13. Let Go Control - Lyrics:
[Bonus Track]

And I know
That I should let you go
To let you be with all the thoughts you loathe
Awake and stare across the sea
In hopes that you will dream
But nothing's free

We take our lives
We'll never die
And we'll learn what was right
This chance wont be the last one
This chance wont be the last one
We take our lives
We'll never die
And we'll learn what was right
This chance wont be the last one
This chance wont be the last one

I'll give you time to spend alone
And once the pain is gone, your light will let us know
Set free, now you can try and speak
The words that you would see
I already know

We take our lives
We'll never die
And we'll learn what was right
This chance wont be the last one
This chance wont be the last one
We take our lives
We'll never die
And we'll learn what was right
This chance wont be the last one
This chance wont be the last one

We take our lives
We'll never die
And we'll learn what was right
This chance wont be the last one
This chance wont be the last one
We take our lives
We'll never die
And we'll learn what was right
This chance wont be the last one
This chance wont be the last one

We changed our lives
We'll never die
This chance wont be the last one
This chance wont be the last one
We changed our lives
We'll never die
This chance wont be the last one
This chance wont be the last one

We take our lives
We'll never die
And we'll learn what was right
This chance wont be the last one
This chance wont be the last one
We take our lives
We'll never die
And we'll learn what was right
This chance wont be the last one
This chance wont be the last one

We take our lives
We'll never die
And we'll learn what was right
We take our lives
We'll never die
We take our lives
We'll never die.

01. Prudence - Lyrics:

Old birds have opinions
They sing and they shout
Beautiful songs from the soul
That no one cares to figure out

I need to know but I'm just a kid
And I need room to grow

Tonight
We go where we wanna go
We say what we need to say
Even if the long road takes us home
Tomorrow's a new day

We form our opinions, yeah
Call it American
But who believes a smile from a child
With all of his teeth clinched

My feelings show cause I'm just a man
And I need room to grow

Tonight
We go where we wanna go
We say what we need to say
Even if the long road takes us home
Tomorrow's a new day

Tonight
We do what we have to do
We say what we care to say
Even if the long road takes us home
Tomorrow's a new day

Tomorrow's a new day

My feelings show cause I'm just a man
And I need room to grow

Tonight
We go where we wanna go
We say what we need to say
Even if the long road takes us home
Tomorrow's a new day

Tonight
We do what we have to do
We say what we care to say
Even if the long road takes us home
Tomorrow's a new day.

02. Listen - Lyrics:

You may speak to the heart of a crowd
But your words won't always be graceful
This show is a beautiful thing
But we're all in a season of changing

Forget what you know
The things you try to control
You've got to let go

The whole world's talking to you
But you're lost
When will you listen
Love is waiting for you patiently
When you start to listen

Your skin will grow old
Your body will slow
There's no hope in escaping
The institution will fold
And go down in a hole
With all your good intentions

Forget what you know
Everything that you control
You've got to let go

The whole world's talking to you
But you're lost
When will you listen
Love is waiting for you patiently
When you start to listen

Son, what's spoken
Was born in peace

The whole world's talking to you
But you're lost
When will you listen
Love is waiting for you patiently
When you start to listen
The whole world's talking to you
But you're lost
When will you listen
Love is waiting for you patiently
When you start to listen

Forget what you know
Everything that you control
You've got to let go.

03. Rebuild, Release - Lyrics:

I cling to a wire

A distant sight of sand
My body is tired
But I'm walking by command

A foundation is fading
I've lost all memory of land
A ship in still water
Doing the best he can

I need to get this feeling out
The walls are coming down
The walls are coming down
I'd bleed for something real right now
Let's build it from the ground
Build it from the ground

The searching is over
I take my place among the thieves
The sadness it covers
It's bringing me to my knees

The wolf draws closer
Accepting everything I've done
But his teeth leave empty
As I move closer to the sun

I need to get this feeling out
The walls are coming down
The walls are coming down
I'd bleed for something real right now
Let's build it from the ground
Build it from the ground

It's hard to have clarity in a catacomb
I'm a brick away from being made to laugh alone

I need to get this feeling out
The walls are coming down
The walls are coming down
I'd bleed for something real right now
Let's build it from the ground
Build it from the ground

Rebuild, release
Rebuild, release.

 04. Learn From The Night - Lyrics:

Tempting lies with bloodshot eyes

Is not who I wanted to be...
It's not who I wanted to be
Buried deep in a song I keep
Are words that I needed to say
But words never come out right

We believe our hearts are pleased where I don't feel good enough...
I don't feel good enough

We learn along the way (that life has meaning)
Inside we feel the same (should we live for will to change)
All this time we know what's right
And we can make it out alive
If we learn from the night

Say goodnight with hurt inside
I guess I had something to prove
But your heart would not move
Terrified of the fear we hide
And words that we needed to say
But words never come out right

Hope at best our hearts will rest
Well, that's not good enough
That's not good enough

We learn along the way (that life has meaning)
Inside we feel the same (should we live for will to change)
All this time we know what's right
And we can make it out alive
If we learn from the night

I see now that you won't give up (you never)
Close your eyes 'cause we mean too much

We learn along the way (that life has meaning)
Inside we feel the same (should we live for will to change)
All this time we know what's right
And we can make it out alive
If we learn from the night.

05. Mean What You Say - Lyrics:

Every inch we talk

They make a sound, we walk
You better mean what you say
You better mean what you say
Less God, more gun
They aim for the heart, but we ain't got one
You better mean what you say
You better mean what you say

I don't need to hurt with my hands
I could find some value, destroy it with my mouth
Hey, could you ever love again?

From the womb, we're taught
You make a sound, I walk
You better mean what you say
You better mean what you say
With words like drugs
We speak 'em hard like we know what one does
You better mean what you say
You better mean what you say

I don't need to hurt with my hands
I could find some value, destroy it with my mouth
Hey, could you ever love again?

I regret the things I've said
Could you ever love again?

I don't need to hurt with my hands
I could find some value, destroy it with my mouth
Hey, could you ever love again?

I regret the things I've said
Could you ever love again?

06. However Long It Takes - Lyrics:

Seven years is long enough

I made this trip just to spill my guts
The things I've seen I can't believe

I'm letting go
So I can move forward
I just need some sleep tonight
One thing could make it all better
If I could hold you tight

However long it takes
I'll make it back to you
However long it takes
However long it takes

A million miles is far enough
The things we do for the ones we love
We'd give anything for the old routine

I'm letting go
So i can move forward
I just need some sleep tonight
One thing could make it all better
If I could hold you tight

However long it takes
I'll make it back to you
However long it takes
However long it takes

Fear has filled this house before
But it takes a little faith to make it through the storm
And no matter what life has in store
Just know I'm proud of you and what we're fighting for

However long it takes
I'll make it back to you
However long it takes
I'll make it back to you

However long it takes
I'll make it back to you
However long it takes
However long it takes.

07. Need It Today - Lyrics:

I drew a line

Tried to get to heaven
The mirror was my gate

But I expired
And didn't even notice
Until I'd been thrown away

I had to fall to make it through

I found a way to get close to you
Lose all the pain I've been holding
It's easy to say I'll get better soon
But I need it today, I need it today

I fell in love
It was going perfect
So I offered her my name

She started to cry
And said I wasn't ready
Inside I felt the same

I had to fall to make it through
I'm taking steps to find the man you knew
'Cause no one cares the way you do

I found a way to get close to you
Lose all the pain I've been holding
It's easy to say I'll get better soon
But I need it today, I need it today

(Close to you, close to you)

I found a way to get close to you
Lose all the pain I've been holding
It's easy to say I'll get better soon
But I need it today, I need it today

I found a way to get close to you
Lose all the pain I've been holding
It's easy to say I'll get better soon
But I need it today, I need it today
I need it today.

08. Never Be Enough - Lyrics:

Come close
Take off your shoes
Tell me all the thoughts
That weigh on you
Bad love
Left a visible scar
But it won't fool me
'Cause I know who you are

Every wall we build inside
Will never be high enough
To keep the water from our eyes
And all the good you see in me
Will never be good enough
It doesn't have to be good enough
It'll never be enough
It'll never be enough

Years pass
In the blink of an eye
Still you hope for change
But live in lies
Bad luck
Left a hole in your guard
But it won't fool me
'Cause I know who you are

Every wall we build inside
Will never be high enough
To keep the water from our eyes
And all the good you see in me
Will never be good enough
It doesn't have to be good enough
It'll never be enough
It'll never be enough
It'll never be enough
It'll never be enough.

09. We're All Liars - Lyrics:

Connections has never been stronger

We see the same things
I gave all my money to God expecting relief
And as they kicked me out
I swore

Somebody is a liar
You shouldn't play with fire, you may get burned
You know, you know, I put my trust in this
But I know, I know, I've been misplacing it

I thought I was different, no, but I did the same things
You were wrong and admitted it, saw you were just like me
Where was the grace I had before?

Somebody is a liar
You shouldn't play with fire, you may get burned
You know, you know, I put my trust in this
But I know, I know, I've been misplacing it

I ran and I ran and I ran for you, but I broke my word, but I broke my word
I see and I see and I see it's true, that I broke my word, that I broke my word
Where was the grace I had before?

Somebody is a liar
You shouldn't play with fire, you may get burned
You know, you know, I put my trust in this
But I know, I know, I've been misplacing it

I broke my word.

10. Best In Me - Lyrics:

This room is thick with words

A mess a mess of secrets and thieves
But can't you see that we're all the same
Just vessels and we're all afraid

Forgive me I don't mean to intrude
You see my hands are shaking too

Just settle down this storm won't last forever
We're built for more than this world
I'm not that strong honestly I'm not
But you always see the best in me

Now I'm open
At least you see me for who I am
So fragile
I wait with hope that the coming change won't blow us away

Forgive me I don't mean to intrude
You see my hands are shaking too

Just settle down this storm won't last forever
We're built for more than this world
I'm not that strong honestly I'm not
But you always see the best in me

Am I something you can be proud of now

Just settle down this storm won't last forever
We're built for more than this world
I'm not that strong honestly I'm not
But you always see the best in me

Am I something you can be proud of now.
