Earthquake (The Fall)
04:03
|

settle down
the earth is shaking beneath my feet
and everything is crumbling down
on all the stars i counted
but you won't see me break composure
sing me a lullaby to get me by
take me over i've lost control of the wheel
and they want to see me fall
but i'm still standing
up against the wall
and i'll just let the beat control me
take me away
I'll let the beat control me
take me away
there's always room to breathe
here the sounds
of restless empty screamers
on the night of their defeat
stick around every city needs a martyr
so cross your fingers
reckless drinkers
the bottle's done oh troubled thinker
lead the way your story's on replay
and they want to see me fall
but i'm still standing
up against the wall
and i'll just let the beat control me
take me away
I'll let the beat control me
take me away
there's always room to breathe
so i let life take me
look inside things aren't okay
these bad thoughts can't escape me
your story's on replay
i'll let the beat control me
they don't know me
let it lead the way
i'll let the beat control me
your story's on replay
and they want to see me fall
but i'm still standing
up against the wall
and i'll just let the beat control me
take me away
I'll let the beat control me
take me away
there's always room to breathe

Undertow
03:36
|
|||
ride it out then take it in
face down the windows here are shaking
i see your eyes a stranger in the dark
your words cut like knives
they leave a mark
can you hear the sound of two hearts breaking
i'm a sinking ship
looking back i can see that i was blind
i'm losing it
you gotta make up your mind
i'm caught in your undertow
i'm standing out side and it's ten below
after all you've done you still got the guts to say hello
you say you won't let this slip away
instead i'm left waiting as our silhouettes sway
after all this time i'm drowning in your undertow
i have to let you go
say all you need to say
i'll take whatever comes my way
i know you're not the one without a doubt
it's time to cut the strings above my head
then i'm leaving the pieces on your bed
i bet you're finally freaking out
i'm a sinking ship
looking back i can see that i was blind
i'm losing it
you gotta make up your mind
i'm caught in your undertow
i'm standing out side and it's ten below
after all you've done you still got the guts to say hello
you say you won't let this slip away
instead i'm left waiting as our silhouettes sway
after all this time i'm drowning in your undertow
i have to let you go
if i save you now could you save me too?
would you drop everything that you do
no please, slow down and take your time
just go and throw out another line
break me down, give me a sign

Cigarettes & Postcards
03:00
|
|||
i'm sending souvenirs and postcards
'cause now i'm miles away
my imagination takes me to another place
cigarettes and front yards
i'm here for one more day
not gonna stop till we make our hearts race
you're in the back yard chilling on the back porch
it's getting kinda dark gotta light the last torch
the sun's going down and we're not getting home tonight
here's to another night
another year of breaking out and chasing the spot light
three cheers for another night
we'll never feel more alive
remember memories and highlights
kept in a box inside
throw away the key and set all of our fears aside
limousines and head lights
i'm here for one more ride
not gonna stop cause this is our design
lights standing out bright blinding on the interstate
we're staying up all night even if we all faint
the sun's coming up and we're not getting home tonight
here's to another night
another year of breaking out and chasing the spot light
three cheers for another night
we'll never feel more alive
what we've done will be our best kept secret
cross my heart and i hope to keep it
we'll never stop yeah we'll keep it going
on and on and on
here's to another night
another year of breaking out and chasing the spot light
three cheers for another night
we'll never feel more alive

Face The Strange
03:42
|
|||
i'm falling out, i'm running blind
i'm a compass without a guide
with no sense of direction
tell me what i'm trying to find
my heart and mind they intertwine
call it imperfection
i'm running out of time
should i run away or should i stay
pray that i would make it out okay
'cause i'm standing on the edge
could i play this game or change my name
fight through to see who i became
or is time to face the strange
they say all is fair in love and war
i try to even out the score
but i'm left with nothing
leave me empty, give me more
leave it scattered on the floor
come on show me something
i'm taking back what's mine
should i run away or should i stay
pray that i would make it out okay
'cause i'm standing on the edge
could i play this game or change my name
fight through to see who i became
or is time to face the strange
a moment to open up my eyes
it's rarely black and white
and now i'm running out of time
should i run away or should i stay
pray that i would make it out okay
'cause i'm standing on the edge
could i play this game or change my name
fight through to see who i became
or is time to face the strange

Medication
03:57
|

the lights are out
and i'm finding out with every breath i take
this mirror's fogging up
so darling help me out of the cold
the sparks ignite when our hearts collide
it's just a chemical reaction
we all need something to take the pain away
i'll find a way to forget you
but i'm holding on
it's hard to pick up the pieces
when it all comes back to you
give it up i need a second
i won't stop folding paper airplanes
i never made it easy to change me
i lay awake alone in bed and count to three
then i'll let go of all my senses
till i fall asleep cause
it's me and you and my dedication
it's you and me you're my medication
you're a small time fan and a big time dreamer
you're a hard act to follow
how did this get so hard to swallow
the sound of a name in a crowded room
but all i see is you
it's a train wreck for two
we all want something to take the pain away
i found a way to forget you
but you're holding on
it's hard to pick up the pieces
when it all comes back to you
give it up i need a second
i won't stop folding paper airplanes
i never made it easy to change me
i lay awake alone in bed and count to three
then i'll let go of all my senses
till i fall asleep cause
it's me and you and my dedication
it's you and me you're my medication
i found a way to forget you
but we're holding on
it's hard to pick up the pieces
when it all comes back to you
give it up i need a second
i won't stop folding paper airplanes
i never made it easy to change me
i lay awake alone in bed and count to three
then i'll let go of all my senses
till i fall asleep cause
it's me and you and my dedication
it's you and me you're my medication

Keeping Secrets
04:04
|
|||
paint me a picture for every wasted dream
they come and go with the weather
with flash floods in between
'cause i'm just sick of losing sleep
the lies i keep, we're in too deep
but maybe i'm just a hopeless dreamer
i'll take it all, i'll take the pain
i'll take the fall, i'll take the blame
we all have monsters in our closets
but i found a way to keep them tame
can you bring me back to life
the match is lit, take your pick
before this takes the breath from your lips
sing along to the thunder
the walls are caving in
everything's going under
but i'm not giving in
if you just quit it, i'll admit it
we're a deadbeat town and you're the riot
maybe this time we'll keep our secrets quiet
i'll take it all, i'll take the pain
i'll take the fall, i'll take the blame
we all have monsters in our closets
but i found a way to keep them tame
can you bring me back to life
the match is lit, take your pick
before this takes the breath from your lips
