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

Talk In Whispers

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

Don't Look Back
03:27

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

In Your Pictures
02:49

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

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

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...

I'd Already Forgotten

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

You Said That

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
