Hello
Is anybody anywhere?
It's time to draw the curtains
Time to find our way above the stairs
Oh memory
Oh anyhow
Time to flip the switch
Let the dark draw down
Hello, I think I love you
Hello, why don't we get in from the rain
Hello, if i can't miss you
Before your portrait turns the perfect shade
Portrait turns the perfect shade
Hello
It's oh so good to find you well
It's time to come together
Time to find our way above this hell
Accept your heart
Confess to me
That you're ready to go
But not until we, until we say
Hello
If i can
Hello
Why don't we get in from the rain
Hello
If i can't miss you
Before your portrait turns the perfect shade
Portrait turns the perfect shade
Hello (Hello), I think I love you (I think I love you)
Hello (Hello), why don't we get in from the rain
Hello (Hello, hello), if i can't miss you (if i can't miss you)
Before your portrait turns the perfect shade
Portrait turns the perfect shade

It's Not About You

Ooh, solitude
Solace now, hallelujah
But I don't believe your heart
No i can't believe that hard
All in tune, all in station
Try my mood, try my patience
But I don't believe your heart
And I can't believe that western garden
Don't forget the puppet on the string
Is not an issue
So impressed with all your pageantry
You're not allowed to, it's not about you
Can't expect that perfect harmony is all around you
If you can't live in this ecology
It's not an issue, it's not about you
(It's not an issue, it's not about you)
Oh, now I'm green
I'm obscure, I'm obscene
But I can't believe these sins
No I don't believe they'll win
How are you?
Are you sorry?
Nevermind, come adore me
But I don't believe your heart
And I can't believe the worst about it
Don't forget that all of your despair goes on without you
You don't have to push it everywhere
You're not allowed to, it's not about you
Bear in mind it's all of ours to share, isn't it obtuse?
If you can't be impressed upon to care
It's not an issue, it's not about you
However did you know?
That I can't leave it dead
The horror and the guilt infected in my head
You're standing in the way, there's nothing you can make
Just listen for a single second
Don't forget the puppet on the string
Is not an issue
So impressed with all your pageantry
You're not allowed to, it's not about you
Can't expect that perfect harmony is all around you
If you can't live in this ecology
It's not an issue, it's not about you

New Kid

She's the new kid in the neighborhood
She's out putting plants on the porch
She has a different name on the mailbox
She has a different car in the driveway
She has a nicer dad than the last girl
She has a nicer mom and she's prettier
She's got different brothers and sisters and swingsets and dresses galore
She has a different name than me
Maybe she might go to the party
We'll be eatin' candy and soda and pie
And you're just the way I don't remember
Just the way I don't remember
Just the way I don't remember you
Not you
She's the new kid in the neighborhood
She's the latest kid on the street
I think her name is Jody or Jamie or Jessica
I think her name is Maggie or Laurel or Steve
Maybe she might go to the movies
Maybe she likes the ones with the spaceships and blood
And you're just the way I don't remember
Just the way I don't remember
Just the way I don't remember you
Not you
And you're just the way I don't remember
Just the way I don't remember
Just the way I don't remember you
Not you

Wretched long ago
Overcome undergrown
If you miss my being wrong
If you limp I limp along
If you listen are you gone?
Cut through dead upon
Will you go on and put my heart in a basket?
Don't fall
Don't curse your heart
Never at all
If you listen are you hurt?
Are you always getting worse?
We go dancing in the dirt
If you're limping are you limping
No, it's fine, but I can't believe you this time
You fall you sigh
But I can't believe you this time
Erode your mind
But I can't believe you this time
You moan, you cry
But I can't believe you, can't believe you this time
Trampled to the dust
Sliced in half, turned to rust
I must keep it in my mind
Chain my reason to your side
You won't hurt me you won't try
Shaving seconds from our lives
Will you go on and throw my heart in the trash
Don't fall
Don't curse your soul, never at all
If you need me I'll be smart
I'll take everything to heart
We go dancing in the dark
If you're limping are you limping
No, it's fine, but I can't believe you this time
You fall you sigh
But I can't believe you this time
Erode your mind
But I can't believe you this time
You moan, you cry
But I can't believe you, can't believe you this time
But maybe this time or maybe no
But maybe this time or maybe so
Or maybe this time go baby go go go go
No, it's fine, but I can't believe you this time
You fall you sigh
But I can't believe you this time
Erode your mind
But I can't believe you this time
You moan, you cry
But I can't believe you, can't believe you this time

Can't feel a thing about it
Conscious in rivers clouded
You know we're getting better now
When the world keeps slipping away
We've got it
Is it odd to say?
If you ain't so livin' okay
Dull water
A feeling, unfair
9 33 10 46 5 Hundred and 2 28 6 15 4 7 61 3 0 12 2 54
Clutching the wires burning
Incessant engines turning
These streets will roll straight over you
When the world keeps slipping away
We've got it
Is it odd to say?
If you ain't so livin' okay
Dull water
A feeling, unfair

Nightingales

I'm a mess, I'm a wreck, I'm a bird, I'm a curse away
An obtuse silhouette dwindled down to the court where your memories erase
I'm a mess, I'm a wreck, don't distress, don't expose your name
A continued egress trampled down to the bone with your colors astray
So keep swimming, keep swimming
Deep water, keep dancing
Cold nectar, dark data
Lays under your pillow
Exactly, come with me
Collected, nice hurting
Ease of it, diluted, is over your problems
Nightingales glide up on the air
Nightingales glide up on the air
Nightingales glide up on the air
Admit me, admit me
Nightingales glide up on the air
Herald to your heart unawares
Nightingales glide up on the air
Admit me, admit me
Til the day we collapse til the day we couldn't last anymore
Til the final collision crescendo resolves on the nursery floor
If you said we could swim maybe then we could drown by the shore
Under moonlight and vultures
And cloaked in the haunting that held us before
So keep swimming, keep swimming
Deep water, take cover
Sent over, your clutching
Devoted, deserted
Untimely, uncertain
Bleak numbers, hard network
Taught breathing, elapsing
Is under your covers
Nightingales glide up on the air
Nightingales glide up on the air
Nightingales glide up on the air
Admit me, admit me
Nightingales glide up on the air
Herald to your heart unawares
Nightingales glide up on the air
Admit me, admit me
When your open heart is tangled
When your final breath expires
You can live unknown, or you can live alone
Or you can live on fire
With your broken fingers reaching
With your beaten steps expanding
You can live aside, or you can live a lie
Or burn your understanding
Nightingales glide up on the air
Nightingales glide up on the air
Nightingales glide up on the air
Admit me, admit me
Nightingales glide up on the air
Herald to your heart unawares
Nightingales glide up on the air
Admit me, admit me

Mine

Can't believe the way I hide away
I can't believe the way you act when you're loving him all day
Honestly you can't realize
The ghost is just your worst disguise
Either way is no surprise at all
So can I make you mine?
Can I take up your time?
Cuz there's no way these lines divide us
The home inside us
Can I be in your heart?
Undo the way we are
Right to the very start, together
Enclosed forever
Can't believe the way I shut the door
Disaster ever after I can't face it anymore
Can't forget can't re-analyze you
Nothing big can paralyze you
Either way it's bad advice to say
So can I make you mine?
Can I take up your time?
Cuz there's no way these lines divide us
The home inside us
Can I be in your heart?
Undo the way we are
Right to the very start, together
Enclosed forever
And I can't undermine, can't help underline the cost
Can't deny or comply, just can't help but feel the loss
Lift me with your lights unfaded
Nothing isn't complicated
So can I make you mine?
Can I take up your time?
Cuz there's no way these lines divide us
The home inside us
Can I be in your heart?
Undo the way we are
Right to the very start, together
Enclosed, enclosed forever

They left a message
Yes they have left it here for you
Please read it careful
If you can't work out what to do
If i can manage
If i can make you feel a little uptight
If i can't hack it
Then kick me off your satellite
It's not the way you are
It's not the way you turn me off
Living can't be great if I can't say to ya
That we live in Canadia, that we live in Canadia
They left a missive
Yes they have nailed it to the floor
Proceed with caution
If you can't take it anymore
It's out of our hands
If i can make you feel a little uptight
Oh utter madness
Your kiss is not enough so say goodnight
It's not the way you are
It's not the way you turn me off
Living can't be great if I can't say to ya
That we live in Canadia, that we live in Canadia
Why do you come in here?
Is it to burn ourselves?
Or was it something else?
Oh fish sticks, oh fresh hell
You want a piece of me?
You wanna hear it call?
You wanna burn it all
Thin lipstick, dirty water
Ferry thee down to the slaughter
It's not the way you are
It's not the way you turn me off
Living can't be great if I can't say to ya
That we live in Canadia, that we live in Canadia

This Side of You
06:53

Up to the place where you are
Lavender, sage on air
Up to the place and your fragile heart is right there
There
Left behind all of the dark
Left where I couldn't bear
Left under memories, nascent inside of me
Undone the moment you cared
Could this side of you
Come closer to me?
Realize, analyze everything
Until we see
Cause the side of you
Could never compare
We don't need to hide it anywhere
Anywhere
Up to the room where you lay
Up through the canopy
Up to the place where they covet the things that we say
Leave them out there on the wind
Let it all consecrate
Cause we've got a bucket of sunshine and secrets to save
Could this side of you
Come closer to me?
Realize, analyze everything
Until we see
Cause the side of you
Could never compare
We don't need to hide it anywhere
Anywhere
Wake me up sunshine, how do you do?
Take me downstream where your rivers run through
Isn't it just the best? How do you deal with it?
However ever we do, we do we do
Could this side of you (Could this side of you)
Come closer to me? (Come closer to me)
Realize, analyze everything
Until we see
Cause the side of you (Cause this side of you)
Could never compare (Never compare)
We don't need to hide it anywhere
Anywhere, anywhere
