A Little Back
03:47

Every time I turn my head
I hear something else you said
Every time I rest my bones
I get the feeling I’m not entirely alone
Think you could be mine
Don’t you waste your time on me
Think things will be fine
All we need is time you’ll see
But I’m still waiting for you to
Give me a signal
Show me a sign
Are you here for the distance?
Or just killing time?
I keep a little back
I keep a little cold
Incase its just easy
And I’m too heavy a load
But every time I see your face
I know that I can take the weight
Think you could be mine
Lay it on the line for you
But you were a long time coming
And I’m still waiting
Keep your motor running
And all the exits clear
You were a long time coming
But I’m still waiting for you to
Give me a signal
Show me a sign
Are you here for the distance?
Or just killing time?
I keep a little back
I keep a little cold
Incase its just easy
And I’m too heavy… a load

This Girl

If I held you in the quiet
If I held you in the dark
Would the voices fallen silent
Wrap around us to hide the spark
When the laughter drowned the whispers
Under covers, undermine
If I had held you a little tighter
Would you have noticed, would you care?
Would you have said that you were mine?
Your memory fills each moment
But I’m still left here wanting more
The key sits rusting in the door now
When the laughter drowned the whispers
Under covers, undermine
If I had held you a little tighter
Would you have noticed, would you care?
Would you have said that you were mine?
Keep moving
Keep your body breathing
Keep waiting
For something to believe in
Last night party winding down
As new found soul-mates hit the ground
Don’t look back and see her in the crowd still waiting
Last night party winding down
As new found soul-mates fulfill clumsy dreams

Ten

Tear yourself to pieces
Tenth time today
Picking through the wreckage
Of all your yesterdays
Tearing up the picture
But the image is in your head
Guaranteed to come and fine you
When you’re lying alone in bed
And how can I help you
If you wont help yourself?
Look around it affects everybody else
We all got our fingers burnt
In the name of history
There’s so much damage and hurt
Looking in the mirror
I worry what I’ll see
You’re dying for a piece of him
But he’s a part of me
So how can I help you?
If you wont help yourself?
Look around it affects everybody else
We all got our fingers burnt
In the name of history
There’s so much damage and hurt
In spite of our history
We’ve still got so much to learn

Everything & Nothing
03:50
|
|||
There are days when I find my mind
Slipping into something good
And I swear I would take it in a second if I could
But you don’t know the damage that your damage can make
You don’t know the meaning of an innocent mistake
And you don’t know the depths to which I crave and I break
(If you never see me in your arms
You must tell me before it’s too late)
‘Cause there are ways down every single path
If you lay your heart out bare
And I swear I would give it in a second if I could
But you don’t know the damage that your damage can make
You don’t know the meaning of an innocent mistake
And you don’t know the depths to which I crave and I fake

Catch the silence before you wake
While I trap this moment
Before I break
I can’t keep running
It keeps on coming
The silence it will prevail
We move on
Feel stronger now I can’t see your face
When all’s said
When all’s said and done
Catch the silence before you wake
While I run around the edges
Of all the things that you take
I can’t keep coming
Back again for more
Of your bullshit you laid out at my door
We move apart
Eyes fixed upon
As you just walk away
We’re all said
We’re all said and done
Just beyond the sunlight
Just outside the dawn
Linger in the shadows
Shelter from the warm

Paper Cups
03:23
|
|||
I can feel you here
This frost-covered town
The smoke fills our air
Just from breathing in and out
In and out
Paper cups we gather up
Light up our skies
And sing off key our symphonies
In streets of snow and high desires
We love a little deeper
Caught in the now
Fill up the night with chains of lights
And dare the stars to glow the brighter
I can feel you close
This frost-covered town
The sun’s filled my ears
Just keep breathing in and out
In and out
Carry the weight for you
Let peace flow upon you tonight
Carry the weight from you
Snowflakes on the pavements you light
Between our pages the dark remains
Try and change it
Begin again
Between our pages the dark remains
Turn and face it
Begin again
I can feel you here this frost-covered town

Frosting (Cello Mix)
02:08
|
|||
I felt the burning today
Just the edge of something cold
And for a while for a moment
Yesterday returned
And I don’t know why but I was colder than ice
And you were my winter
The frosting on my skin
You were the start you were the centre
So that’s where I shall begin
So lets begin

Sure I’d like to be free from here
Too close to for anything that’s real
The constant puzzle over what I’ve done
To make you act this way – I can’t explain
These things come and turn our faces
Find out what we have become behind closed doors
These things come and turn our tables
Find out where we belong is not where we began
I still here you calling
I still feel your eyes on me
And I’m still freefalling through the space you leave
Become
Sure I’d like to believe your lies
Salt pinches that we hide behind
I take you at your word I can’t resist
The emptiness you leave when you’re away
These things come and turn our faces
Find out what we have become behind closed doors
These things come and turn our tables
Find out where we belong is not where we began
I still feel your eyes on me
And I’m still freefalling through the space you leave
I still hear you calling
I still feel your eyes on me
Dust is still gathering in the space you leave

I wandered ‘round the house this afternoon
Looking for the light from room to room
Staring out the windows trying to find my space
‘Cause I don’t find it when I search your face
I wandered ‘round the house the other day
Looking for the truth in what you say
Staring out the windows trying to find a way
‘Cause I can’t find it when I search this place
No fingers printed in the dirt
To mark the ways you make me hurt

Shell
04:12
|
|||
I can’t remember days before you came my way
It all goes blurry and the same it’s strange I dare say
These are the days I live inside now
You took away the part of me that made me
Who you fell in love with
And I don’t know who this is but it’s a shell
You made me breathe a little deeper
From the weight left on my shoulder
Kicking up my wreckage what the hell
Where did I go?
Where did the pieces of my heart, my mind go?
Floating all alone
I can’t remember days before you came my way
It all goes easy now and there’s no shame in that way
And there’s no pain in taking it slowly while drifting so lonely
And where did I go?
Where did the pieces of my heart, my mind go?
Floating all alone
And will I see my own face again?
And feel my own skin breathe strong in my hand?
You took away the part me that made me
Who you fell in love with
And I don’t know what this is but it’s a shell

How Can I? (Demo)
02:56
|
|||
Don’t think I don’t care
Because I don’t say the words
Well how can I?
You’re still lying by her side
Don’t think I don’t care
Because I don’t make a move
Well how can I?
You’re still wrapped up in her life
But don’t mistake this for a second
Don’t be in doubt of my affection
You mean the world to me
You’re what makes me able to breathe
So don’t think I don’t care
Because I don’t say the words
I need to try
To put you behind me
‘Cause when you’re not there
The space you leave just hurts
And I don’t wanna cry for you
Each time I see you with her
So for what it’s worth
Don’t think I don’t care
Because I don’t shout it from the roof
There’s this lullaby
If you need your proof
That when you’re not there
The space you leave just hurts
And I don’t wanna cry for you
Each time I see you with her
Don’t mistake this for a second
Don’t be in doubt of my affection
You mean the world to me
You’re what makes me able to breathe

Every time I turn my head
I hear something else you said
Every time I rest my bones
I get the feeling I’m not entirely alone
Every second of my day
I spend waiting for this feeling to
Go away
Every hour that passes me by
I know the people out there are just
Living lies
Give me a signal
Show me a sign
Are you here for the distance?
Or just killing time?
Every time I turn my head
I hear something else you said
Every time I rest my bones
I get the feeling I’m not entirely alone
I’ve been holding out underwater
Keep the pieces fresh inside
But I can’t hold my breath any longer
So I’ll let go and let it slide, slide, slide…

Ursa Minor (Robs' Piano)
03:29
|
|||
I have to say you made me forget myself
Not one to fall upon my sword
It’s not like I will crumble I had a choice
But forgive me if I throw my toys
Keep my chest close to my heart
Move my pieces back to start
Back away politely and play my part
Play my part, play my part
Play my part, play my part, play my part
I cannot shake the feeling that life could be
Greener on your other side
Its not like you can change me
I’m set in lines
But forgive me if I run and hide
Keep my chest close to my heart
Move my pieces back to start
Just one small thing before we part
You broke this heart, you broke this heart, you broke this heart
You broke this heart, you broke this heart, you broke this heart
Concede defeat
Pray to beat this aching seed
Grows in me
Concede defeat
And pray to beat
This aching seed that grows in me
