Wish For Nothing
02:08
|

|
It’s the way that you wish for nothing
It’s the way that you wish for nothing
You catch your breath
You wish for nothing
For nothing
So when I dare you to wish for something
I’m only asking you if you would stay
And the way that you still adore her
Oh it’s the way that I wish to be loved
That I wish to be loved x4
And still the way that I wait for nothing
It’s the way that I wait for nothing
It’s the way that I feel it’s broken
And the way I find my fears

Not That Important
02:07

Let go of your gold
Let go of your gold
It doesn’t mean as much as you think
It doesn’t mean as much as you drink
Let go of your ghosts
Of your ghosts let go
It doesn’t mean anything
It doesn’t mean anything
It’s just not about you
You’re not that important
You’re not that important
It’s just not about you
Sitting around
And barely present
Thinking about
How you’re affected
Just forget about yourself for a moment
Just forget yourself for a moment
For a moment x3

For Now
03:00

You can walk in any direction
And instead, you follow her
Someone’s guiding you to hurry
You can’t hear them anymore
You can’t hear them anymore
You can’t hear them anymore
Maybe you haven’t been there
Maybe you just don’t get it
Maybe it takes some patience
I don’t know for sure for now
You can be so many people
But you choose to be like her
You can see so many people
But instead, you see through her
There are so many voices
They’re all screaming out your name
Take a seat and listen carefully
It’s the one you have that should take hold
Maybe I just don’t get it
Maybe I’m second-guessing
Maybe you know what’s best for
For the way that you live
For the way that you live

Carpet
02:12

The carpet feels flaky
Your arm can’t hold its weight
Concerned by your powers
Your boots by the door
You say you’re restless but you seem calm
Convincing me that nothing is wrong
The carpet feels new
I’ll walk barefoot
Your shoulder feels heavy under my weight
Your hands feel steady with me at your side
The carpet is wrapped up in the corner
Next to a box of your receipts
The carpet is wrapped up in the corner

It's Clear To Me
02:11
|
|||
|
I clearly would do anything
I clearly would do anything
You clearly have this power over me
I’m not pretending to be free
You clearly have something over me
You clearly have something over me
I don’t want you to be free
Of it, of you with me
Do you pretend like you don’t care
Are you afraid to take a step
Why do you run from what I know
Why do you run
It’s killing me x4
Are you as clever as you seem
Are you as shameless as your sins
Am I as foolish as I seem
Am I as hopeless as you’ve been
It’s killing me x8

Do you have time to feel
Can you imagine what that’s like
Do you have time to heal
And do you care enough to try
Cause I’ve been feeling like I really just don’t understand
And I’ve been thinking that I really just can’t feel like you
And I’ve been feeling like I really just don’t understand
And I’ve been thinking that I really just can’t feel like you
Do you have time to be
Alone with thoughts that you don’t recognize
Did you believe that you could always hide
Cause I’ve been feeling like I really just don’t understand
And I’ve been thinking that I really just can’t feel like you
And I’ve been feeling like I really just don’t understand
And I’ve been thinking that I really just can’t feel like you
I just can’t feel like you x3
I just can’t feel like you want me to

With Me
03:08
|
|||
|
Still can't explain
What a mess you’ve made of me
Still can’t express
The way I feel at night
You should know, you should know
You’re with me at night x3
You’re with me
Every day is hopeful
By the end, it’s not
Every moment’s wasteful
And it’s all we’ve got
Not sure where I stand
Not sure where you are
Not sure where I want to be
But not very far
You’re with me at night x3
You’re with me
I still think of you
If you were here, what would you do
I still dream of you
When you are there, it’s who I know
I still think of you
If you were here, what would you do
I still dream of you
When you are there, it’s who I know
You’re with me at night x3
You’re with me x3

Waiting
02:42
|
|||
|
I’m begging for
the day to come
I’m waiting on you
I’m waiting on me too
Don’t turn away
There’s just no use
Don’t let your mind sway
From the abuse
You know yourself
Unlike she does
Don’t let her raise
Hell in your eyes
She rests her head
On someone real
And breaks her neck
In the appeal
And whispers softly
And loudly clear
There’s someone out there
Who can’t sit still

Beyond
02:49
|
|||
|
I seem to have forgotten what you’re worth to me x2
Beyond this patience is a vacant heart
Beyond this silence is a broken mind
Tell me once again why you left
I looked for answers beyond your eyes
I looked beyond what I thought I could find
Even beyond what I thought I would find
The first attempt was to run away
What am I worth to you, I ask you dear
How many fears have you left to blame
How many tears you left behind
What am I worth to you, I ask you dear
I have forgotten what you’re worth

There's No Stopping You
02:23
|
|||
|
You can stop and pretend like you want to
You can stop
You can run and pretend like you need to
You can run
There’s no stopping you x2
There’s no stopping
There’s no loving you x2
There’s no loving, loving you
You can jump ahead if you want to
But will you remain in place
You can laugh at something you need to
But will you suffocate
There’s no stopping you x2
There’s no stopping, stopping you
There’s no loving you x2
There’s no loving, loving you
Loving you
There’s no loving you
There’s no loving
You can stop

How Do You Do It
02:23
|
|||
|
Wake up and think x2
Someone’s gonna undress you tonight
Someone’s gonna undress you
Wake up and listen to yourself
Wake up and watch for lonesome theft
Wake up
Wake up and listen for what you want
Wake up and think x2
Someone’s gonna undress you tonight
Someone’s gonna undress you
Someone’s gonna undress you tonight
Someone’s gonna undress you
How do you do it
And walk away
How do you tear their hearts out and..
How do you do it
And let them play
How do you do it
(Wake up and think)
And walk away
How do you do it
(Wake up and think)
And walk away

The greatest to ever do it, do it again! Sometimes lush as a warm blanket, sometimes all the angles of a dance party, always suspended in and out of time
