Way Down 02:44
Hey kid, I know that I let you down, and I'm saying so but Stay kid, you don't wanna be shut out, gotta let it go, but if Hate is all you can feel for now, gotta understand That this way, kid, there's no other way but down No other way but down No other way but down am I losing you in the crowd I hope I'll see you around In the times it feels like there is no one around, you know you can talk to me And the times it feels like I've been buried alive, that sinking feeling never leaves me Hey kid, I know that I let you down, and I'm saying so but Stay kid, you don't wanna be shut out, gotta let it go, but if Hate is all you can feel for now, gotta understand that this way, kid, there's no other way but down No other way but down Reach out, I never said it enough, it wouldn't feel the same Speak out, I never told anyone, so I'm the one to blame Stand up, get me out of this place, that I've been waiting to leave Eyes shut, I never saw it before, that I don't know what I need Too slow, I don't wanna grow old, I wanna live til I'm dead In too deep, the water never feels cold til you're in over your head Hey kid, I know that I let you down, and I'm saying so but Stay kid, you don't wanna be shut out, gotta let it go, but if Hate is all you can feel for now, gotta understand that this way, kid, there's no other way but down No other way but down

I've never wanted anything As those days fall from view, I wanted more than anything to be the life you're leading You walked away from everything Hid in the old, from new I wanted more than anything to know just what you're feeling But you started staying away And I couldn't stay in the frame With what you said, and then When you started staying away And I just stayed in pain But now it's over I'm strong enough to know when I won't take anymore Moved on enough to know that you were right all along And it's long enough ago that I can walk down those roads And I never will feel alone The circumstance don't change a thing Yeah, and if I know you You wanted more than anything to go, kicking and screaming We won't know how it would've been Yeah but one thing's still true We wanted more than anything to go, without quite leaving But you started staying away And I couldn't stay in the frame With what you said, and then When you started staying away And I just stayed in pain But now it's over I'm strong enough to know when I won't take anymore Moved on enough to know that you were right all along And it's long enough ago that I can walk down those roads And I never will feel alone Never will feel alone But what you said, oh yeah The words kept playing 'round my head for days They said "you'll be here alone, be here alone" Thoughts kept praying on my mental state They said "what we had is gone, what we had is gone" Roads we'd take were never quite the same You'd always be where I'm not, be where I'm not And to this day I never got to say "But what if you were the one, you were the one" But you started staying away And I couldn't stay in the frame With what you said, and then When you started staying away And I just stayed in pain But now it's over I'm strong enough to know when I won't take anymore Moved on enough to know that you were right all along And it's long enough ago that I can walk down those roads And I never will feel alone

Can you, tell me again When we'd, forgotten everything We thought, we felt, we said Can you, help me pretend Believe, that this was all a dream A play we had roles in Do you, still feel the same Cause I've spent years saying I can't seem to feel that way again Will someone new take my place And I'll be left alone In love with what is now an empty space There was a time when you and me were sweet Yeah, we'd speak About the summer of our days And how it was here to stay (Here to stay) Summer's gone and the colours look more bleak We don't speak about the cold, the dark, the grey Or the future thrown away (There's nothing left to say) We only talk in whispers Tell me, what happens next How can, you think that All the pain we felt is for the best Tell me, do you recall Those times, before Everything that we built began to fall Will you, still feel regret Or will I just become A line on your list of things to forget Will I, still feel the hate Self hate I felt when I learned Nothing's worse than knowing you're too late There was a time when you and me were sweet Yeah, we'd speak a bout the summer of our days And how it was here to stay (Here to stay) Summer's gone and the colours look more bleak We don't speak about the cold, the dark, the grey Or the future thrown away (There's nothing left to say) We only talk in whispers

Why are we afraid to grow? We only see ourselves in highlights We miss the desperation love, so substance-less For strangers that just felt right I miss the people who remember me as whole (Why are we so broken now?) But these pieces don't resemble what they see in hindsight You won't find me (Goes over and over again) in pretty shades of painted memories (Still waking from leftover dreams) We are victims of our past I know you always wanna ask the question what will we become And where do we belong Why are we afraid to go? When moving on is what's expected We can't right the wrongs with which we are obsessed But we yearn to be protected I miss the fascination of what would come next (Why are we so broken down) But I'm scared for all the people that would go neglected You won't find me (Goes over and over again) In pretty shades of painted memories (Still waking from leftover dreams) We are victims of our past I know you always wanna ask the question What will we become And where do we belong Along the way I said what if we're never dead we're all alive in someway Somewhere drifting into something And on that day I said I'll face all my regrets We all hold on to something And I can't let go, I won't let go
5.
You're always out on your own You never wanted to speak You only wanna go home And you don't see me Too many drinks in your hand Not enough moments of peace Too many honest mistakes With no release The futures starting to fray Caught up on where you have been Unravels all that you were With a past, unclean You've always said you wanna believe But you couldn't find just what you need You made a cage but you wanna be free I've always been right here What are you waiting for You've always said you wanna believe But you couldn't find just what you need You made a cage but you've got the key I've always been right here What are you waiting for It's the wrong place, the wrong time There's only one way it goes You've never been one to believe that The highs are worth the lows And when it's flooding your brain Until it shows in your eyes It's the closest I've come to understanding What goes on inside you You've always said you wanna believe But you couldn't find just what you need You made a cage but you wanna be free I've always been right here What are you waiting for You've always said you wanna believe But you couldn't find just what you need You made a cage but you've got the key I've always been right here What are you waiting for I've always been right here

Think Twice 03:19
You Say there's something missing inside of you That it's gone And if that's true Can you erase the things that you thought you knew Now they're wrong You're knocked back You broke down The pieces they fit, but don't look the same A redraw A re-frame Your tough luck, ain't lucky without the pain It's inside It's engaged It's undone The role they ask you to play It's chewed up It's fed back It's yours 'til they wanna take it away They'll take it away You Say there's something different inside of you That it's wrong But if that's true Can you retrace the steps that you thought you knew Now they're gone You're back in You're backed up The voices, they don't know what has been said A re-do To stay sane To keep up with the thoughts that race through your head It's mixed up It's confused A red light, you're always waiting your turn It's too late It's not you A match strikes, with all these bridges to burn These bridges to burn

By Numbers 03:14
Can you take another picture of this worn-out winter scene (It's what you make of it) From where you've been Do you slowly reminisce of when the leaves were on the trees (It's what you make of it) Woah-oh I think (I think) We'd be better if you cared, better if you cared And I think (I think) Were you ever even there You never... I'm counting back from the better days (Back from the better days) From a time when you never would've changed your ways Back from the better days (Back from the better days) When the world that we made was gonna stay the same Let the good things go Let your heart stay young Tell the outside no Never turn and run Count back from the better days And let go Just let go Can you fake it for a second that I'm everything you need (It's what you take from it) Like you are for me It's the only condescension that I ever want on me (It's what you take from it) Woah-oh I think (I think) It'd be better if you left, better if you left And I hope (I hope) That we never meet again Cause I'm counting... I'm counting back from the better days (Back from the better days) From a time when you never would've changed your ways Back from the better days (Back from the better days) When the world that we made was gonna stay the same Let the good things go Let your heart stay young Tell the outside no Never turn and run Count back from the better days And let go Just let go And I know that it still hurts It's tough to face up to those demons But I know that it can work If you look back on what's better I'm counting back from the better days (Back from the better days) From a time when you never would've changed your ways Back from the better days (Back from the better days) When the world that we made was gonna stay the same Let the good things go Let your heart stay young Tell the outside no Never turn and run Count back from the better days Can't let go... Won't let go...

You're never taught of pain You're never taught about hearing things that you don't want them to say You never thought it'd burn You never thought you'd hear the words that make you understand the hurt You never thought you'd bleed You're not ready for the loss in life of the people you think you need It felt like everything, and then it's out of shape and out of place You took your space in my head, maybe once it's there, it won't erase Watch all the time go by, and you are the one thing I can't replace We need to move on, sometimes somethings die and nothing is the same Live every day of it, the one thing I remember is your face You're never taught of fate You're never taught of expecting that you lose the chances that you don't take You never know the dark That trembling uncertainty that's set up inside your heart You never have the sense of perspective 'till you're dealing with the past and present tense You're never taught of pain You're never told that life is just this feeling again and again It felt like everything, and then it's out of shape and out of place You took your space in my head, maybe once it's there, it won't erase Watch all the time go by, and you are the one thing I can't replace We need to move on, sometimes somethings die and nothing is the same Live every day of it, the one thing I remember is your face

Those days Meant something to me Did they mean something to you Meant nothing was gained after what we went through Did they Mean nothing to you You know they meant something to me I think of the moment, stood frozen, just trying to speak A token moment of respect, unspoken but a major set of rules you thought you would let take over your life A subtle nod to sympathy, but not quite reaching empathy It wasn't close enough for me to not fall apart Those days Meant something to me Did they mean something to you Meant nothing was gained after what we went through Did they Mean nothing to you You know they meant something to me (Don't know what to say) I think of the moment, stood frozen, just trying to speak Those days Meant something to me Did they mean something to you Meant nothing was gained after what we went through Did they Mean nothing to you You know they meant something to me (Don't know what to say) I think of the moment, stood frozen, just trying to speak

Do you remember any good times Amongst the storm of this situation Or has the winter took for granted, everything that those moments meant to me Are you the question or the answer Don't even know if you can be happy Or do we need to take a step back, and realise we're not where we need to be The seasons changed And you stayed the same And it's not okay To just run away (Don't run away) Did the grey skies take all the colour from your world (Don't run away) Or the fire from your eyes Cause it's not okay Are you the centre of this tension The waters running from misdirection Or have I taken this for granted Forever sure that you'd run back for me All the words begin to fester Living a week of indecision The heavy weight that has been left on It makes me wonder if we ever will be free The seasons changed And you stayed the same And it's not okay To just run away (Don't run away) Did the grey skies take all the colour from your world (Don't run away) Or the fire from your eyes Cause it's not okay And I know And I know And I know And I know And I know And I know That you're the one who said that The seasons changed And you stayed the same And it's not okay To just run away (Don't run away) Did the grey skies take all the colour from your world (Don't run away) Or the fire from your eyes Cause it's not okay

There's so few places I call home But that still makes me happy When it's just you and me alone With the summer breeze This one it always pulls me in These cobbled streets indulge me Time never stops once it begins It's how our life could be So come on, let's live the season of self expression Take a deep breath, stay close to me And I will follow your new direction It's where I wanna be Let's run, with the winds that are always changing Just close your eyes, put your trust in me And we will follow this new direction It's where I wanna be Get lost in where you find belonging Be from where you don't exist Something that you've never known End what you wouldn't miss Let's take our time, enjoy the moment Let forever be today Victoria Park in the death of summer Tell me that you'll stay So come on, let's live the season of self expression Take a deep breath, stay close to me And I will follow your new direction It's where I wanna be Let's run, with the winds that are always changing Just close your eyes, put your trust in me And we will follow this new direction It's where I wanna be
