1.
There’s a light in the back room I don’t know if I should care Last I looked I was alone here But I don’t even know where here is All the roads you take lead you nowhere All the rules you make when you need them Is it just for right now? There’s a light hidden in the shadows Your hazel eyes find it every time.
2.
Feeling on top of the world but you’re not seeing what you wanna see Believing talk is cheap and you’ll get nowhere when the ride’s for free A little high, a little low I just gotta know, you realize you’re not alone All the mistakes, you said that you need them to keep you in time, never hesitating. All the mistakes, you said that you need them, locked up inside to keep you in time. Keeping destiny on the run for far too long Say it, “fear used you up when you shot for the stars but you ended up at home.” A little high, a little low I just gotta know, you realize you’re not alone All the mistakes, you said that you need them to keep you in time, never hesitating. All the mistakes, you said that you need them, locked up inside to keep you in time I want to know what you’re thinking. Why do you wanna live through someone else? Are you ready and able? A fever dream reflection of yourself. We never believed enough This is why you’re always feeling all fucked up. Angel on the right or that devil down inside, Who’s going to get you to it? Only you can pull you through it.
3.
I can’t tell which one is better The lie you used to tell Or the feeling you get when blame belongs here with someone else I can see everything you ever did, through eyes you use to sell the same old line, to any fool that mistakes you for something else. You wanted everyone to give you everything You read it line by line We knew it You’re always running backwards I don’t know what the give and the take is But I do know what to do Add it up and see your wrong like 1 and 1’s still 2 I thought I found one of the sensitive ones The kind that won’t kiss and tell We left it all on the floor that night but it didn’t end so well You wanted everyone to give you everything You read it line by line We knew it You’re always running backwards, Will you ever stop? You promised words 1000 times before I heard it every single time You left out something that was meant for us “It’s alright from here” but right back to every lie
4.
Your Spell 04:19
I know you did just what you told me doesn’t mean we have resolve you made the world slip beneath me You had everything, I had it all wrong I can feel it in my bones, everytime I pay the price But I don’t wanna change a thing Cause this is never worth always being right I get lost in your spell every time I get lost in your spell every time I can see it in your face, you think it’s all a ride I don’t wanna change a thing Cause why live out what we both hope will die I get lost in your spell every time I get lost in your spell every time Why would you think twice about breaking all the rules? just to get it right? You bled dry all my energy just to leave me in your fool’s paradise. I get lost in your spell every time
5.
You take all the attention You’re too good to believe in Add it to the list of who you never got to be Everything you wanted Everything you needed Till you call it out, you’re never free I don’t need to say a thing wrong Cause you’ll always get caught When it’s right down to the wire You believe all your convictions Rumors told in sequence I won’t be the one to ever set you free Now every thing you wanted Isn’t every thing you needed When you call it ours, the dream is a reality I don’t need to say a thing wrong Cause you’ll always get caught When it’s right down to the wire
6.
Chameleon 04:37
When we first started It was the like the Earth against the tide Lost in a feeling of no longer being surprised Some would give you pleasure but most drove you insane It’s easy to leave when you’ve always dreamed forever would always change and it always changes Moving on chameleon Move it on chameleon You said you’d never change for anyone But to me you stay chameleon Now 2 years later and now when your heart breaks you never learn You said you’d never, and that’s why you’re still alone I heard of a promise to heal you but you gotta want it first And that’s why you’re being served and you never take back every single word that you leave on the table Moving on chameleon Move it on chameleon You said you’d never change for anyone But to me you stay chameleon
7.
Look how you got it Exactly what you wanted Don’t call it magic, it was play by play I know you let go but controlled by your ego Who want’s to feel that same boring old way? I don’t know what to say about it You’re not mine to save I don’t wanna play it anymore You can’t stop what you never started Who cares if you blew it You’ve got a lifetime to re-do it No one else can say it in your special way And I can tell you meant it Not thing to be regretted Now let it be exactly what it seems I don’t know what to say about it You’re not mine to save I don’t wanna play it anymore You can’t stop what you never started I don’t know what to say about it You’re not mine to save
8.
Winners 04:43
Voice of a generation dies the kids are left without an alibi to blame it all on Living off someone else’s Trust, the money’s great but the dreams they just won’t last The hope the fear the love desire We’re never growing old Never giving in again It’s yours to lose but if you don’t play baby The winners will never change Play the fool with someone else’s time Everyone here know’s everyone’s lie so call it what you will Mistakes that look a mile wide You hit the road running Though you never did the crime What’s another friend or two? The hope the fear the love desire We’re never growing old Never giving in again It’s yours to lose but if you don’t play baby The winners will never change
9.
We live with distractions Nothing given, nothing gained Living used to be easy I guess that was all part of the game Lost in a simple life Excuses come but don’t go The lies are adding up Running circles round the truth that you know We can push it to the side I just need to you hear you say it These memories are not your own You had to steal them I can’t read your mind You said to “do it like this” But it’s an empty request Misunderstand all the time All the time Looking out an ocean, lost in what I see Some other reflection And a thousand fingers point back at me Wasted youth on someone else’s dream Time’s a journey with more miles to go Then it ever seems I can’t read your mind You said to “do it like this” But it’s an empty request Misunderstand all the time All the time I can’t read your mind
10.
So this is love So this is love I never knew what my heart was for Until I met the both of you This is love...
