Birds couldn't see what you've done to me. Let it out? I'm far too deep in doubt. And I don't know, which way your heart goes. If only you could, see things how I do. An ocean to cross to slumber next to you. The least i'd do, to slumber next to you. I don't know if you knew, the things you'd made me do. If they could be true, I wouldn't just pass through. Darling am I only passing through? Please step in my way. Darling won't you stay? Step in my way. Honey make me fray.

4 Days 06:43
The window's open once more. I don't know what i've got myself in for. Wallet breaks and I fall. Know that we'll still do it all. Standing bright, I'm standing strong. Don't think I'll be alright for much too long. The mirror showed what I couldn't see, the second face of someone like me. Tell me why I'm not so clear. Seen it all since I'm lying here. A nurse, a teacher and an engineer. Done it all but I'm still here. Something changed in our ways. Something happened in those four days with you. With you. Feel the warmth upon my feet. Burning lies up between these sheets. Throwing money likes it's fame, you're the phoenix, I'm the flame. Tell me why I'm not so clear. Seen it all since I'm lying here. A nurse, a teacher and an engineer. Done it all but I'm still here. Something changed in our ways. Something happened in those four days with you. With you.

The Hollow 04:46
I'm happy now that I've found my way. You seem to not learn from your mistakes. I'm free to go home and close that door. You keep crying on the bedroom floor. The sea called out to me again last night. I saw your love from a lowly light. You here, begging me to give you more. I'm still standing by the bedroom door. You held me, I held you. And all the pain, you used too. Don't ask me, to borrow. I'll find you there, in the hollow. I'm happy now that I've found my way. You seem to not learn from your mistakes. I'm free, I'll go home. I'll close that door. You're still crying on the bedroom floor. You held me, I held you. And all the pain, you used too. Don't ask me, to borrow. I'll find you there, in the hollow. You held me, I held you. And all the pain, you used too. Don't ask me, to borrow. I'll find you there, in the hollow.

There's whiskey on the table, i'm sinking into sand. Tell me now, tell me now. I think i'll understand. I wanted you, I wanted you. Didn't need a friend. Tell me now, tell me now. Why couldn't you hold my hand? Don't tell me who to see, tell me who to see. When you don't even know what you're trying to be. Tell me now, tell me now. What is distant feel? When you pulled my hand under. Watch my body move so still. But i'm okay. My feet fit my shoes. Tell me now, what about you? There's whiskey on the table, i'm sinking into sand. Tell me now, tell me now. I think i'll understand. I wanted you, I wanted you. Didn't need a friend. Tell me now, tell me now. Why couldn't you hold my hand? Don't tell me who to see, tell me who to see. When you don't even know what you're trying to be. Tell me now, tell me now. What is distant feel? When you pulled my hand under. Watch my body move so still. But i'm okay. My feet fit my shoes. Tell me now, what about you?

Embers 10:03
We got lost. In the city tonight. We didn't know about the light. We didn't know, If we'd make it home. We knew, we knew, we weren't alone. Whispers and whistles filled my mind. We broke through one last time. I don't know if I remember, the night we danced on embers. We got lost, In that city last night. Now we know. Now we know, about the light. Whispers and whistles filled my mind. We broke through one last time. I don't know if I remember. I don't know if I remember. I don't think i quite recall. The last fucking time you said it all. I don't know if I remember. The night we danced on embers.
