Pressure
03:17
|

I can feel the pressure wearing down our backs
we're all getting older stalling in our tracks
You don't know the answer read it in the book
I don't feel much better after all that took
What am I supposed to believe in
Who am I to break the words they're teaching with
There's a lie it's lost in the east
What's waiting for me
Don't tell me that I'll be fine
Winter's never coming like it used to be
we're all falling backwards stuck in unbelief
What am I supposed to believe in
Who am I to break the words they're teaching with
There's a lie it's lost in the east
What's waiting for me
Don't tell me that I'll be fine
Oh darling here it goes
I'm leaving here alone
Don't tell me not to go
I'm following the road

Natural Disaster
04:24
|
|||
It's just a phase they told me
hasn't stopped its holding
sit and wait natural disaster
Sleeping like the suns out
empty pocket strung out
I don't care it's not what I'm after
And I can't wait to start what's in my heart
What's in my heart today
Yea I can't wait to start
what's in my heart
what's in my heart
What's in my
Waking every morning
it comes right back to me
I'm just searching for a warning
give it all that I have
give it all that I have to
Waking every morning
it comes right back to me
I'm just searching for a warning
give it all that I have
give it all that I have to give
Older days were honest
miss the thump in my chest
I don't feel don't feel like I used to
I can see that old warmth
mixing in the new storms
I don't care it's not what I'm after
And I can't wait to start what's in my heart
What's in my heart today
Yea I can't wait to start
what's in my heart
what's in my heart
What's in my
Waking every morning
it comes right back to me
I'm just searching for a warning
give it all that I have
give it all that I have to
Waking every morning
it comes right back to me
I'm just searching for a warning
give it all that I have
give it all that I have to give (x2)

Waking Up
04:40
|
|||
Summertime is what I've waited for
and days go by but I don't feel much different than before
Waking up to go back home
turn the clock and I'll never know
make the tea to soothe my throat
When does my whole life begin
What is god and where has it been
Does it care about my sins
Cause I've been wasting all this time
hold me close and tell me it's alright
Yea I've been wasting all this time
hold me close and tell me it's alright
Yea it's alright
Colors fade down to subtle grey
and I can't tell day from night and night from day
Waking up to go back home
turn the clock and I'll never know
make the tea to soothe my throat
When does my whole life begin
What is god and where has it been
Does it care about my sins
Cause I've been wasting all this time
hold me close and tell me it's alright
Yea I've been wasting all this time
hold me close and tell me it's alright
yea it's alright
No don't you tell me I was wrong
I never knew what's backing down the road
I'm living on
I said don't you wonder If I was wrong

Turn Us Over
04:20
|

Drop it in the ground and watch it
growing in and out of my head
Blocking out the sun you're drowning
everything you have around it
Can you help me darling
I have so many questions that need an answer
I'm falling deeper so dive down in the ground
help me help me take my time
Leave it leave it off to the side
Can we make it one more night
cause I can feel it passing by
Take another step behind it
I can see the earth inside it
Can you help me darling
I have so many questions that need an answer
I'm falling deeper so dive down in the ground
Help me help me take my time
Leave it leave it off to the side
Can we make it one more night
cause I can feel it passing by
I can feel it passing by
Help me Help me take my time
Leave it Leave it off to the side
Can we make it one more night cause I can
feel it passing by

my face
pressed against the window
fogs the glass with my nose
breathing heavy heavy
i watch you
make your way so freely
up my father's driveway
with my heart in tow
oh oh oh
oh oh oh
my mind
struggles to remember
a moment I should regret
more than letting go
my feet
planted to the carpet
paralyzed by regret
of ever letting go
my lungs
struggle to expand now
why can't I get a word out
I need to let you know
oh oh oh
oh oh oh
I'm running faster faster
I'm running into your arms
I'm running faster, faster
I'm running after your heart

Flat Circles
04:33

Tell me bout the scars again
taking over when I stand
I don't know where to go
Leaving home is where I've been
pull the boots up prune my skin
I don't know where to go.
Tell me what have I been coming home to
It's all lost in my head on and on and on
You don't have to pretend that you want to
take back all that you said
cause it goes on and on and on
Tell me bout the man I was
when my heart was still on the run
I don't know where to go.
Growing up and growing down
screaming out I can't make a sound
I don't know where to go
Tell me what have I been coming home to
It's all lost in my head on and on and on
You don't have to pretend that you want to
take back all that you said
cause it goes on and on and on

Ghost
04:33
|

There's things that I don't know
just breaking down in front of me
What happens down the road
is sneaking up so quietly
Build it up and tear it down again
I have seen beginning and an end
We will feel things I can't explain
but we love through the vast array
This will break me to the fold
and the pounding in my head won't ever go
I can't deny this feeling when we are alone
You're becoming part of me
so come back home
I've been afraid to run
when everything is caving in
Can't be the only one
just holding on and saving it
We have built a mountain out of cards
hear the quakes they're coming from the dark
There's a fire rushing through the woods
we will burn like no one thought we could
This will break me to the fold
and the pounding in my head won't ever go
I can't deny this feeling when we are alone
You're becoming part of me
so come back home
So come back home

Atlas

silent tears
guilty eyes
we go back and forth again
open up
no one wins
when we fail to feel beloved
----
did you know
we're ok
it's a secret I like to keep
it's me alone
you alone
that makes us feel this way
i'm just an earth on its axis
organized madness
oh my god
how did we end up here
and you say
you say it's just a little too much to bear
----
hold on, hold on
darlin'

Emotions
04:31
|

There's a girl in my bed
that means something to someone
but she means nothing to me
And it's all in my head
that I can't get enough of
all the emptiness this brings
But don't you let me go
I'm out here on my own
Please don't feed me those emotions
She was talking to me
but it's not quite the same as
how we talked when you were home
And it's so hard to see
how we ended up here
how I ended up alone
But don't you let me go
I'm out here on my own
Please don't feed me those emotions
I'm leaving I'm leaving
it's almost time
I'm leaving I'm leaving
it's all untied
I'm fine on the surface
but I lost it all inside
There's a girl in my bed
that means something to someone
but she means nothing to me
And it's all in my head
that I can't get enough of
all the emptiness this brings
But don't you let me go
I'm out here on my own
Please don't feed me those emotions
