Big Colors

I'm so sorry but it's time to go
And we both know
I'm only dreaming in big colors now
Live in a world that isn't upside down

So, where do we go?
Where do we go from here?
Where do we go?
Where do we go from here?

Since I've known you, all the things we've seen
And the places we've been are gone
I'm just dreaming in big colors now
Loading my brushes with this love I've found

So, where do we go?
Where do we go from here?
Where do we go?
Where do we go from here?
Where do we go?
No reason to know
We just go up

The brightest colors always rising to the top
With no fear and only hope
Where do we go?
Where do we go from here?
Where do we go from here?
The brightest colors always rising to the top

Do Not Disturb

If the walls in the room could talk
I wonder to myself, would they laugh?
It's like some kind of jail
Beams of light
Fall through the curtains onto the bed
I'm all alone now, I can do as I please
I don't feel like doing much of anything
True love ain't that hard to find
Not that you will ever know
Would you leave me for awhile?
Please do not let me go
Please do not let me go

You were sweet enough to sing
Oblivious to melody
Red suitcase full of clothes
Washed up on a shore of memories
I'm all alone now, and I feel just fine
I don't feel much like doing anything
True love ain't that hard to find
Not that either one of us will ever know
Would you lay here for awhile?
Please do not let me go
Please do not let me go

It's So Quiet, It's Loud

Light shines down from the windows of your house
The rain passes lightly
Pink tangerine that lives on your wall
Spins your room slightly
Your eyes are open
It's almost morning
I daydream your voice
It echoes through the walls
In my mind, your voice ain't mine

It is so quiet that it's loud
It is so quiet that it's loud
It is so quiet
It is so quiet, it's loud

And the night drags on
We finish drinks sideways
Telephone rings, rattles once and stops
It hangs up while you're dreaming
My eyes are open now
Outside it's pouring
I daydream your voice
It echoes through the halls
In my mind, racing through the crowd
I hear your voice say mine

It is so quiet that it's loud
It is so quiet that it's loud
It is so quiet that it's loud
It is so quiet, it's loud

It is so quiet, it's loud
So quiet, it's loud
It is so quiet, it's loud

Fuck The Rain

I wanna lie down
Here in your arms
And just die
Can I live
Long enough to be alive
With a bleached out heart and a broken smile?

Flowers for brains, permanent sunshine

I wanna hold you
Pieces and prayers
And disarm
Can I live
Long enough to be believed
With a bleached out heart and a broken smile for the wind?

Flowers for brains, permanent sunshine

F*ck the rain
All that pain
Don't
Everything is fine
Can you stop?
Can I be alive?
Process all the doubt
And think
The numbers go in
But they don't go out
On time

Flowers for brains, permanent sunshine
Flowers for brains, permanent sunshine

F*ck the rain
Everything is fine
Can you stop?
Can we be alive?
Processing the doubt
You think
That the numbers, they go in, and they don't go out
On time

'Cause you've got flowers for brains and permanent sunshine

Flowers for brains and permanent sunshine
Flowers for brains and permanent sunshine

Manchester

Oldham streets
Built to bruise
Freckled face
And a pair of shuffling shoes

Hot pink and red
Rain and booze
Running fast
Past the cotton mill crews

Darkness creeps
Through the halls
Til the walls come tumbling down
Hold my hand
I can tell
Heart beats fast through the streets downtown

I would throw it all away and choose
If I could have been born three blocks from you
And we burn this city to the ground

Manchester ruins
Like a ghost
With its rattling chains and moths
Heron mill
Bricks and lead
Terraced homes hot pink and red

I would throw it all away and choose
If I could have been born three blocks from you
Oooooh
From you oooooh

And we burn this city to the ground
And we burn this city to the ground
And we burn this city to the ground
To the ground
To the ground

What Am I

All these things keep running through my mind
Everyone and everything I left behind
Standing in the cold great dark
Watching cars go by
And all these things keep running
Through my mind

Am I safe? Am I safe? Am I safe? Am I safe?
If I don't wanna be with you

Every day my heart seems like a stone
Carries me away into the undertone
At the bottom, there's no air, there's no sound, no light
And all these things keep running
Through my mind

Am I safe? Am I safe? Am I safe? Am I safe?
If I don't wanna be with you
Am I safe? Am I safe? Am I safe? Am I safe?
If I don't wanna be with you

On my way back on my sea of heart over
Close my eyes, but if it wasn't mine
It's complicated, I just don't love you anymore
I just wanna sit here and watch it burn
Sit and watch it burn

Sitting look at someone through the world
Running from myself like when I was ejected
Pictures in on the wall, when we used to smile
All these things keep running
Through my mind

Am I safe? Am I safe? Am I safe?
If I don't wanna be with you
Am I safe? Am I safe? Am I safe?
If I don't wanna be with you

If I don't wanna be with you

Power

Oh pretty baby, when you say my name
Kick off my shoes inside of my head
Feel my shadow, how it says your name
Walkin' like a rollercoaster made of sin
Wanna make you scream, wanna make you shout
Hands all shaking and the power is out

Run your fingers through my hair
Engine's overheating, gasoline in the air
Cadillac's wagon ain't got no soul
Frame born of fire and out of control
Listen to the motor scream and shout
Hands all shaking and the power is out

Headlights shining on a broken road
Sun's goin down baby, I gotta get home
Your wheels are spinning underneath my thighs
Wanna taste your tongue, look me in the eyes
Wanna make you scream, wanna hear you shout
Hands all shaking and the power is out

Burning my hands in the fire
Burning my eyes in the fire
I'm burning up, I'm burning up
I'm burning up, I'm burning up in the fire

I said oh pretty baby, when you say my name
Kick off my shoes inside of my head
Feel my shadow, how it says your name
Walking like a rollercoaster made of sin
Wanna make you scream, wanna make you shout
Hands all shaking and the power is out
Hands all shaking and the power is out

I Surrender

I'm superstitious and I lie
I think about someone too much
I wonder if it helps me so much
And I don't hear the words, your name still hurts to touch
But I know myself too well
I miss you so bad, so bad, so bad, so what?
I know myself too well
I stay inside these rooms, inside this never-ending hotel

I am a sight for blinded eyes
I joke and cough over the punchlines
No one is here to respond
So I just wait for more noise from the ceiling fans
But I know myself too well
I miss you so bad, so bad, so bad, so what?
Tough luck kid, right
I know this loneliness, I did this to myself

Tonight I will try to dream myself away
In an endless ocean without effort I can drain
The battleship's lost in the storm with your name
As I sink and leave the keys into your door

I miss you so bad, so bad, so what?
I miss you so bad, so bad, so what?
I miss you so bad, so bad, so what?
What do you do with a dream when it gets stuck?

I surrender
I surrender
I surrender
I surrender

I surrender
I surrender
I surrender
I surrender
I surrender
I surrender
I surrender
I surrender
I give up

Showtime

If the lights could lead you here, would you go?
If your arms were strong enough to hold me dear, would you let go?
If the stars were out tonight, how would we know?
Falling through the leaves of last season's clothes

Say what you want to, carry what you can
If you were alone, could you walk, would you stand?
Under the lights shining in your eyes
And everybody waiting for you alone in the spotlight
Minus the tears and the heartache and the lies
Hearts racing when it's showtime
But you just take your time

If a walk could make us know
Would you stand in line while mine and held anothers'?
Or would your fingers let go?
Or could you toe the line in hopes of a tomorrow?

Say what you want to, carry what you can
If you were alone, could you walk, would you stand?
Under the lights flashing in your eyes?
And everybody waiting for you alone in the spotlight?
Minus the tears and the heartache and the lies
Hearts racing when it's showtime
But you just take your time
It's showtime
But you just take your time

Say what you want to, carry what you can
If you were alone, could you walk, would you stand?
Under the lights flashing in your eyes?
And everyone was waiting for you alone in the spotlight
Minus the tears and the heartache and the lies
Hearts racing when it's showtime
But you just take your time
Hearts racing when it's showtime
But you just take your time

In It For The Pleasure

Operator's on the phone, says I can't be trusted
That's why you left me alone, it was broke and now it's busted
A little sunshine would do but outside it's disgusting
It's barely making a sound, my heart is beating so loud

I feel the sinking in my bones
I feel the pressure
Were you in it for the love?
Or were you, were you in it for the pleasure?

It's late July and the sky's so grey
Everyone's in bed for a month in LA
The house is so quiet, it's barely making a sound
My hands are shaking, my heart is beating so loud

I feel this aching in my bones
I feel the pressure
Were you in it for the love? Or was it a game?
Were you just in it for the pleasure?

I dive into the pool, the pool was empty
There ain't no water now, my bones feel like an ash cloud
All the minuses and pluses, I try to write 'em down
It doesn't matter now, my heart is beating so loud

I feel this aching in my bones
I feel the pressure
Were you in it for the love?
Or were you just in it for the pleasure?

I lie to myself so I can stay sane
A list of scratched out numbers next to names
And I'm runnin' out of space
It goes on forever

I feel the pain
I feel the pressure
What was it anyway?
Do you remember my name?
Or was it just a game?
Was it just a game?
Were you just in it for the pleasure?

Middle Of The Line

When we fall into the fire
Flames will burn higher and higher
Moon is full, thunder and lightning
The engine roars, burnin up the tires

Funny we don't get it down anymore
Once we were wild like the summertime storms

So come on baby, let's just run
The car's waiting outside
Let's burn a hole into the middle of the line
So come on
The car's waiting outside
We'll disappear without a trace
Let's burn a hole into the middle of the line

Wheels spin 'round but they're preaching to the choir
Rockin' and rollin', burning with desire
Windows down, they laugh and I'm smiling
Radio's blasting, blurring like the telephone wires

Funny we don't get it down anymore
Once we were wild like the summertime storms

So come on baby, let's just run
The car's waiting outside
Let's burn a hole into the middle of the line
So come on
The car's waiting outside
We'll disappear without a trace
Let's burn a hole into the middle of the line
Down the middle of the line
Down the middle of the line

Summer Rain

When you close your eyes
Is it her you're thinking of?
Is she on your mind
When the sleep you need won't come?
When you close your eyes
Wandering the streets in vain

You dream in the summer rain
In the summer rain
You hold her once again

When you fall asleep
Is she waiting there for you?
When you close your eyes
And you lose your vital signs
Is it her that's on your mind?
Wandering the streets in vain

You dream in the summer rain
In the summer rain
In the summer rain
The summer rain

She's so far away
Her hand's slipping away

The summer rain
In the summer rain
You hold her once again
You hold her once again
In the summer rain
