Take your last breath of fresh air before the war and watch the life you know fly out of the door, I know it may seem crazy now, but that's how it plays out When the life you know seems so simple change will come with out a doubt Now her eyes are taped to the ground The two of you say goodbye with out a sound And I know it may seem crazy now but that's how it plays out when the life you know seems so simple Change will come with out a doubt
2.
Here's where we're holding out in our stead with sea foam green walls run down the halls, count holes in the ceiling, slowly reeling back into the room, here in late June and the most pressing thing I do is wait to see you but now, oh no... I'll sit here alone And George lost his mind, Trying to please everyone all the time but the summer was gone, before he knew how he could move on in the strangest way Here in this room, you said you'd love to in a colour I know sit here alone but now it felt bitter, so in the winter I left it alone, time it froze and the people are lying, Always trying, to take you a way, What could I say...
3.
You are the moon, there is nothing I won't do just to lay here with you before the sun rise, How it comes just like the tide, washing Sunday morning white, and I'll be swallowed whole by you, before I wake again Tuesday morning I will rise, rub the sun out of my eyes, and know that I feel right at home, with you by my side Hope I was worth it In time we'll forget the things we've done, But today we'll spend in the sun
4.
In the sun, I was fast enough to run, and on the ground I searched around, because I thought I'd seen your face And there's a light, how it shines on your life, I see now that warm glow will guide me through the night In the sun I heard her call, and I thought for sure that everything I need is in your hands There's a time, and place for this where we'll get all that we wish, because I know that I'll always need you
5.
Oh, where did you go, I don't know did you slip through the whole that we made in our home and I know you can see, how can it be you'd do this to me So please do not go with out a crash, I'll not look back All will be well when we wake in the room With blue lining the walls Oh, where did I go, I don't know I left before snow in November or so And now I find I'm back just in time but I still can't unwind
6.
Tired sailor goes back to sleep leaves behind the roaring sea And knows that he must be prepared for the change in the tide under his feet I had no words when you fell through the roof, how the glass flew all around my room, and never was I aware that you could change all my life with the wave of your hand, No I'm taking a drive, Just to clear out my mind and I don't know where it goes, but I'm not going home, No I'm not going home She asked me to write her name, on the wall next to mine and I don't know where we'll go, but we're not alone, no we're not alone

Photograph 02:42
Well my friends I'm turning green I thought I'd let you know, That all this stress that we've built up we finally let it go We're just two blurred lines in a photograph my dear nothing that I say to you will ever be so clear Tie yourself back to the chair we've not finished here We'll cut you down and chew you out till what we say is clear Did you think that I was happy with the way That you over overbearingly made sure of what I'd say

Growing Cold 03:15
She said she loved me by the way I looked I was above you but now it's understood that when I hold her close to the flame, She is trying so hard to escape and how was I to know, we'd grow cold, and how were you to show you're so bold, when every number is another night alone I'm looking down through this empty hall how your eyes begin to fall I'm thinking on what we had how it left me like an empty glass, and now I'm nothing, no way to turn back Things you said all in the past and when I'm held close to that flame, I'm trying so hard to refrain And how was I to know we'd grow cold, and how were you to show, you're so bold, when every number is another night a lone And is there a light on my head, an early warning this love must be dead, because nothing I say will get through to your head

The Nomad 03:56
Now, we're losing all the light we thought we had, and how those white clouds blocked my view of what it really was, when I woke up in my bed I was thinking on how everything I had would never last can you feel your pulse now? Or have you become the ghost that we put out and can you feel your pulse now Now, all the doors are locked, the lights are low to the room that I fell in your soul and when I woke up one again I was thinking on how I'd go on my own Till I find a home

Post August 03:20
I can see you are tired by the look that you keep in your eyes and I will go if I need to And I need to I need you to know But I can't help but think we grew to fast there was still so much time when I looked last, and maybe all we dreamed we'll have if you're still here when I come back With a wave you were pulled from me and where you've gone was far beyond my reach By August I could see Everything that it meant to me Because I can't help but think time moves to fast there was still so much more when I looked last, maybe all we dreamed we'll have if you're still here when I come back
