All You Never Wanted
03:56
|
|||
Oh, I know these feelings well
Cool autumn breeze through summer's vacant shell
Reflected on a bench for two
Through crimson leaves I'm pressed to find a better view
Cause I could be all you never wanted
Or the one you feel you left behind
Would you say you miss me through the hopeless days
When I'm not so sure of anything
Graffiti kids, the old brand new
The painted flesh below Smith Avenue
Their stories set in faded stone
Across the bridge a million eyes will never know
That I could be all you never wanted
Or the one you feel you left behind
Would you say you miss me through the hopeless days
When I'm not so sure of anything

We Used to be Friends
04:00

Where you gonna go
With your head so low hanging off your bones
When just the other day
I saw you burn so bright had to look the other way
Now don't you go losing all control
It's just the start
I hate to hear you say
That we could be so better off in Seattle or LA
A perfect place in time
Where the only time we know is what we've got
It's here and then it's not the same again
We used to be friends
Whatever happened to the way we were before
Are we gonna leave it here or work it out once more
But no, I didn't know you half as well as I had thought
You disappeared and made no attempt to call it off
The day I learned you died, it struck me as unfair
You'd never make it to be twenty-two

January
04:04
|
|||
Mad a maze of my hometown
Familiar sites are strangers now
Out of place and shifting shape
Could never stop me from getting in my way
Breathing in a brand new life
I never meant to settle in this skin
Under January skies you'll be my long forgotten friend
Packed my life into a car
And stole away across the yard
Through monuments, a history
Of teenage breakdowns and newfound melodies
Breathing in a brand new life
I never meant to settle in this skin
Under January skies you'll be my long forgotten friend
Easy now the helpless nights will only lead you oh so far astray
Better find a place to hide when all the strange emotions fade

Falling
04:34
|

There's dark on this town
The wind's picking up
The blueberry clouds hanging over
Our house on the hill
You're staring at me
Praying for something to go wrong
Yet we've barely begun living at all
Is there such a thing as falling out of love
In the dead of the night
She's slipping away
Over cracks in the stairs
Out the doorway
As we race down the street
I don't know what I'll say
And the blood from our feet
Paints the bus stop
We can't go back and begin again
Years become what we've made of them
It just wouldn't be the same

Golden Days
03:12
|
|||
I'm wide awake now it's morning, the sun's in your eyes
Bet you could conquer the state
But you couldn't care about winning when you're so in love
I hope it's always enough
It's not that we're too young
We're just not old enough
To lose our heads when it snows through the summer
Don't need no-one to say, these are your golden days
So we can hold them before they're over
Walking on railroads, the old tracks were covered in snow
We raised our hands to the sky
I'll race you home to the records we'll play through the night
Have you ever felt so alive
Oh, no we don't
We don't see what's always there
I don't know how we don't
We can't see what's always there

Storm Song
03:36
|
|||
Storming out and stirring inside
Clouded sun like covered past lives
And we never show how they've unfolded
Sudden darkness, subtle surprise
Falling stones and fading starlight
And we can't control when it takes a hold of us
Through the freezing cold you always glow
You know that you're the best I've ever known
It doesn't matter where you've been
Or where we're going, never knowing
Where we'll find ourselves
Call it out as craving bad times
And saving sorrow for the great nights
Now we see right through
We can't let this pattern resume

Through the Telescope
04:44
|
|||
Twisting shapes in outer space seem farther than they are
See them landing on a naked hilltop by the barn
Will they know everything I don't
Stranded in between the stars
You need a place to land
On the run from enemies who couldn't understand
So we march off hand in hand with our new one-eyed friends
We'll take them to our secret hideout where the river bends
Off we go, into the unknown
Stranded in between the stars
You need a place to land
On the run from enemies who couldn't understand
That you may not look the same as our human race
But if you're the ones so far from home then it's true
That we're alien to you
As the beams of morning sun erase the endless night
They said, "We must move on but we will meet again in time"
See them go, through the telescope

The Old, Brand New
03:53
|
|||
Into the old, into nothing more than this
We take our hearts, take our breath
Through fire and smoke, canyons cold with morning mist
We face the sky and send our wish
Spinning, glowing, bright, with the rising sun
Changing, slowly, all folding into one
Into the old, into all we've left behind
We burrow deep til we find
Some hidden chest, something kept out of our sight
A strand of hope, a source of light
Spinning, glowing, bright, with the rising sun
Changing, slowly, all folding into one
Colors, fading, fall into clouds of white
We are brand new, formed on the other side
Into the old, into history, into myth
Where all our stories begin
Where we decide which to keep or cast aside
Form in our hands a brand new life
