As it's looking I'm hung up on names, and as it's looking you're all the same. It's looking like I'm counting days, from my finest mistake. and I love how you're eyeing me, but I'm keeping my distance, baby. 'cause I'm supposed to know/yea it's supposed to knock me out/supposing I was tough when I met you/suppose I had my good foot down. As it's looking I'm just killing time, watching the past & the seasons intertwine. As it's looking I've drawn a line, but I can't keep a steady hand, half the time. and I love how you're eyeing me, but I'm keeping my distance, baby. 'cause I'm supposed to know/yea it's supposed to knock me out/supposing I was tough when I met you/suppose I had my good foot down. Oh, you oughta leave. Oh, just go on, baby. As it's looking I'm miles away, Yea, I'm better off playing safe. And you know that I can't complain, I'll be loved 'til my dying day. Yea I'm supposed to know/yea it's supposed to knock me out/supposing I was tough when I met you/suppose I had my good foot down.

Skin and Bones I woke up with "go home" written backwards on my cheek feeling like a cryptic crossword clue like a jigsaw's missing piece staying up all night isn't going to make it last worrying about it isn't going to bring it back i feel like i am carrying water in my hands if i could believe you, then I'd have a glass but i can't We are just skin and bones and blood without love without love. I want to rest where the trees grow tall enough for men to feel small, enough, to think straight. I want to say every kind word i've been thinking of I want to do it without fear, I want to do it without shame, I want to do it, Every single day We are just skin and bones and blood without love, without love We Are just skin and bones and blood without love, without love ( I hope my God has a plan for me , for me, I hope my God has a plan for me, for me..)

Alchemist, Alchemist Please turn my lead heart to gold Make all my organs a Glittering sight to behold But I wanna leave something for show When they draw out my soul through my nose Put it in a jar Rocketman, Rocketman Take me to work when you go Promise to only bring questions whose Answers you know I know that it's cold and it's far But I wanna get close to a star It's so hard, here in a jar Lover discover we're Deep in the future it seems The circles are real but the Lines just exist in our dreams These days I just can't see the sky But it's clean and it's warm and it's dry So please, leave my trapdoor ajar So I can feel the moon and the sun and the stars It's just a breath of my little lead heart Here in a jar

All of the things that you haven't said are dying for another chance what burned out wont disappear so let go cause you know what you want to hear but no one ever said you should borrow a temporary setting of sorrow You're giving them something they can understand it's hard to believe that it's all been planned ten years now, maybe more ran out like a thief through the golden door but no one ever said you should follow so close your eyes and wait till tomorrow sooner or later another day will wake you up and you'll find a way to leave it all behind Turn it on till it doesn't end flowers to feast for an old new friend helping to see while you fell to the floor you can't hold all the things that you held before no one ever said it was so wrong to say just what you want to when we're alone And I'm not complaining I love the way it never stops but sooner or later another day will wake you up and you'll find away to leave it all behind it doesn't matter what they said it's harder to leave when you're going back sunlights breaking in your eyes everything is clearer it's no surprise you found out what you thought was impossible you don't need anything to be honorable another day will wake you up

We watched him cry, then tried to take the sand from his eyes. With yellow kites, as we raced around the rocks from the tide. Just a dream, where the river played out its last scene. Just a dream, with a little piece of us in between. The shaggy dogs, roiled the angry mob from the town. You're on our land, this sacred hallowed place for our clan. Just a dream, where the river played out its last scene. Just a dream, with a little piece of us in between. You dared me cross, to the no mans land to the west. As your mother watched, and we all know your mother knows best. Just a dream, where the river played out its last scene. Just a dream, with a little piece of us in between. Has anyone seen the time? The last dip before the tide, claims the sand from our feet. Don't leave without me. Don't leave without me. Just a dream, where the river played out its last scene. Just a dream, with a little piece of us in between, with a little piece of us in between, with a little piece of you and me.
