You said let's go
Ditch the office for a while
How do you take your coffee
I've got this one
You're gonna be a big star one day
And then you'll pay
You always looked at my day job as just that
And I'll always thank you for it
I remember things like this years later
You leaned in close
Everybody knows
You're gonna make it
You're gonna be the one

I wanna love you if I'd ever known how
I would started already would have laid it all down
Kiss me quiet in the moments in between
Kiss me in a manner of speaking
Help me feel like I gave these years a go
Young years like a beer when the fridge is full
You go on
I'll have mine later
'Cause I don't mind
I don't mind
It's nice to make new friends from time to time
I don't mind
I don't mind
I can fall behind for a little while
I wanna live and I wanna breathe
I wanna be something that you can see
But when we pull up to your parents house
I can't see myself in their eyes
I want a piece of the puzzle
So that you can't finish it
And i wanna be the person
That you thought i was
But I don't mind
I don't mind
It's nice to make new friends from time to time
I don't mind
I don't mind
I can fall behind for a little while
Even when I don't feel it
Even when my body don't know it
Even when I can't show it
Even when we can't control it
Even when our house is folding
Even when the tears start rolling
Even when i tried controlling
Even if i tried controlling
No I don't mind
I don't mind
It's nice to make new friends from time to time

Hooligans
03:15

I hear them when I wake up
I hear them when I stay up
They say if I'm wise
Quit while I'm behind
They say that I will lose this job
They say can't deserve this life
Certainly not you
And maybe that's true
But I can't fall apart yet
I don't have the time
I can't fall apart yet
'Cause my life's not mine anymore
I asked if I could see you
Tell you what I've been through
Sing my sad old song
All day long
But then I met a doctor who
Said that she has got the flu
I'm not confident
That I can save you
But I can't fall apart yet
I don't have the time
I can't fall apart yet
'Cause my life's not mine anymore
The wisdom of my teachers
They sound like wind-up toys
And the hooligans in the bleachers
They sound like Tolstoy
And I'm too foolish to care
About myself
But I even I know
Even I know
That I can't fall apart yet
I don't have the time
I can't fall apart yet
'Cause my life's not mine anymore
I don't have the time
And I can't fall apart yet
'Cause my life's not mine anymore

Yeah
Fu- fuck it I'm done, I wrote you another song
All about how I would always do you wrong
All about how I'd stay in my dressing gown
All about how I wouldn't do it for you
Yeah
Let me go back to the start
You're gorgeous, you're special
Even I know it, a blind man
And I know I shouldn't say these things
But I was born for all of this
Sins of the father
I deserve all of this
But you're so special
And I won't wait to love you
I won't wait to love you
I'm gonna come down and see you
I can hop on a bus because I can't drive
I can take my wallet and we can survive we'll go
We'll go to a hotel
Break the windows
I can survive on only a smile
A smile, a smile, a smile
I've been leaving you on seen
I've been leaving you because I'm afraid of you
You terrify the boy in me
I know it's stupid and it's messed up and it doesn't make any sense
I won't defend myself
I won't defend myself
For who I haven't been
I haven't been
I'll just start now
I won't defend myself
For who I haven't been
For who I haven't been to you
I'll just take my wallet with no cash
And I'll take a bus and I'll
Find a way south

Your hair is soaking wet
As we ditch the beach
We're light on our feet
Your eyes burn into me
It's a lot of degrees
It's a lottery number
And I miss you 'cause we haven't met yet
And I don't know if we will
I've got to work hard
I don't know if I
Miss you 'cause we haven't met yet
It's a quarter to twelve
I'm still keeping the coffee warm
Yeah
Scorched steel and concrete
Blistering rain
I can't see the road
But I've got to drive straight
The power shudders
The keys turn to cruel glass in my hands
I hear children singing on the radio
Somehow I think that they understand
I miss you 'cause we haven't met yet
And I don't know if we will
I've got to work hard
I don't know if I
Miss you 'cause we haven't met yet
It's a quarter to twelve
I'm still keeping the coffee warm
Keeping I, Keeping I, Keeping I, Keeping I
Keep, I keep on
Keeping I, Keeping I, Keeping
Keeping ah
Please be real
Don't be perfect
But please be real
Because I've been trying to be real for you
I miss you 'cause we haven't met yet
And I don't know if we will
I've got to work hard
I don't know if I
Miss you 'cause we haven't met yet
It's a quarter to twelve
I'm still keeping the coffee warm

Please Tie Me Down

I met a girl on the mountain
She walked straight up to me
There were crowds on the mountain
And she walked straight up to me
She had to push past people
She had to throw all kinds of shade
She missed out on the light show
And she walked straight up to me
And the right thing to say was
I've been everywhere
I've been everything
Please tie me down babe
I've been everyone
I've been everything
Please tie me down
I know I shouldn't fly
Fly like a bee
From the garden
I know it's what I'm made
Sometimes that's what I'm afraid for
So please quickly
I've been everywhere
I've been everything
Please tie me down babe
I've been everyone
I've been everything
Please tie me down

Ocean Lady

You're making it easy
With a flick of your hair
I'm not romantic
But you take me somewhere
Come around again
Come around again
'Cause I'm ready this time
Come around again
Come around again
Let me do it right
You're making it easy
To break out of jail
I was my own jailor
But my rage got turned around
And I couldn't hear a sound outside
Till like a crack in concrete sky
You come around again
Come around again
'Cause I'm ready this time
Come around again
Come around again
Let me do it right
Yeah open the sky
Ocean girl
And open the sky
Ocean girl
And come around again
Come around again
'Cause I'm ready this time
Come around again
Come around again
Let me do it right
'Cause I'm ready this time

When I Go There
03:19

I don't know if you
Ever heard it said too
That you were the one
It gets you in the night
Calls you up on your phone
You are never alone
It's the sweetest of songs but
When I go there
When I go there
I don't come back the same
Though I know that I'm causing you pain
When I go there
I lose my place in the story we're in
I don't see that you're my heroine
Run
Please just run
Run like a shadow
From the evening
While I'm calling out for love
Try me now
Try me later
I'll check if I'm free
Cause when I go there
When I go there
I don't come back the same
Though I know that I'm causing you pain
When I go there
I lose my place in the story we're in
I don't see that you're my heroine
When I go there
When I go there
I don't come back the same
I know that I'm causing you pain
When it gets cold
I'm so sure I'm losing you
So I run first
I don't see that you're my heroine
But show me love, show me love, show me love
And show me love, show me love, show me love
What if you could show me love, show me love, show me love
Yeah what if you could show me love, show me love, show me love
