Try to change your mind, it's like the weather
And you don't make my heart beat like you used to
I've been waiting for a sign, you've been turning on your light
We could save each other for the better
And when you say my name I'll be a memory
This is all that we have planned, choices taken from our hands
Finally this fades to stand alone
My mind is a runaway
And I'll find it's too hard to breathe
Just say what you want to say
Are you there?
Tell me, are you there?
I fear these growing pains
That made us far too strong
Do change if you want to change
Are you there?
Tell me, are you there?
You could lose yourself and search forever
Looking for the person that you'll never be
Breathe in, try to compensate, time to learn from our mistakes
Maybe one day we'll fit back together
I'll pick up the pieces and will rearrange
Now we need to follow fate, now we look beyond the way
Now we find the strangers and the lone
My mind is a runaway
And I'll find it's too hard to breathe
Just say what you want to say
Are you there?
Tell me, are you there?
I fear these growing pains
That made us far too strong
Do change if you want to change
Are you there?
Tell me, are you there?
We've been changing into something more
Familiar faces turning into storm
These growing pains have made us far too strong
We move along, we move along
I'll find it's too hard to breathe
Say what you want to say
Are you there?
Tell me, are you there?
My mind is a runaway
And I'll find it's too hard to breathe
Just say what you want to say
Are you there?
Tell me, are you there?
I fear these growing pains
That made us far too strong
Do change if you want to change
Are you there?
Tell me, are you there?
My mind is a runaway
And I'll find it's too hard to breathe
Just say what you want to say
Are you there?
Tell me, are you there?
I fear these growing pains
That made us far too strong
Do change if you want to change
Are you there?
Tell me, are you there?

Shadow
Woke up to the music of your heart
Saying I, I
Could have been the wishing that it lasts
Saying I, I
Only you ever make me scared
Cause only you can take me there
So wherever you go, I'm your shadow
Desert to ice flow, I will follow
Wherever you go, I'm your shadow
I'm your shadow
There beneath your body when it wakes
Saying I, I
Hiding under every step you take
Saying I, I
Only you ever make me care
Cause only you ever made me dare
So wherever you go, I'm your shadow
Desert to ice flow, I will follow
Wherever you go, I'm your shadow
I'm your shadow
I'm your shadow
I know, I know, I know
Every way you move
You stay, you go, you change
I am far too
So wherever you go, I'm your shadow
Desert to ice flow, I will follow
Wherever you go, I'm your shadow
So wherever you go, I'm your shadow
Desert to ice flow, I will follow
Wherever you go, I'm your shadow
I'm your shadow
Saying I, I
Could have been the wishing that it lasts
Saying I, I
Only you ever make me scared
Cause only you can take me there
So wherever you go, I'm your shadow
Desert to ice flow, I will follow
Wherever you go, I'm your shadow
I'm your shadow
There beneath your body when it wakes
Saying I, I
Hiding under every step you take
Saying I, I
Only you ever make me care
Cause only you ever made me dare
So wherever you go, I'm your shadow
Desert to ice flow, I will follow
Wherever you go, I'm your shadow
I'm your shadow
I'm your shadow
I know, I know, I know
Every way you move
You stay, you go, you change
I am far too
So wherever you go, I'm your shadow
Desert to ice flow, I will follow
Wherever you go, I'm your shadow
So wherever you go, I'm your shadow
Desert to ice flow, I will follow
Wherever you go, I'm your shadow
I'm your shadow

Keeping Your Head Up
Times that I've seen you lose your way
You're not in control and you won't be told
All I can do to keep you safe is hold you close
Hold you close til you can breathe on your own
Til you can breathe on your own
Hold tight; you're slowly coming back to life

Deep End
Someone told me but I won't know
That I feel half empty, ripped and torn
They say there'd be plenty other hands to hold
Now I wish they'd told me long ago
Ooh, I don't want this to break you
Ooh, but I've got no one else to talk to
I don't know if you mean everything to me
And I wonder, can I give you what you need?
Don't want to find I've lost it all
Too scared to have no one to call
So can we just pretend
That we're not falling into the deep end?
You've gone quiet, you don't call
And nothing's funny anymore
And I'll keep trying to help you heal
I saw you crying and dry your tears
Ooh, I don't want this to break you
Ooh, but I've got no one else to talk to
I don't know if you mean everything to me
And I wonder, can I give you what you need?
Don't want to find I've lost it all
Too scared to have no one to call
So can we just pretend
Ooh, how do we mend?
Ooh, I didn't choose to depend on you
It's out of our hands
Maybe it will work out in the end
I don't know if you mean everything to me
And I wonder, can I give you what you need?
Don't want to find I've lost it all
Too scared to have no one to call
So can we just pretend?
Don't know if you mean everything to me
And I wonder, can I give you what you need?
Don't want to find I've lost it all
Too scared to have no one to call
So can we just pretend
That we're not falling into the deep end?
That I feel half empty, ripped and torn
They say there'd be plenty other hands to hold
Now I wish they'd told me long ago
Ooh, I don't want this to break you
Ooh, but I've got no one else to talk to
I don't know if you mean everything to me
And I wonder, can I give you what you need?
Don't want to find I've lost it all
Too scared to have no one to call
So can we just pretend
That we're not falling into the deep end?
You've gone quiet, you don't call
And nothing's funny anymore
And I'll keep trying to help you heal
I saw you crying and dry your tears
Ooh, I don't want this to break you
Ooh, but I've got no one else to talk to
I don't know if you mean everything to me
And I wonder, can I give you what you need?
Don't want to find I've lost it all
Too scared to have no one to call

Wild Horses
I'm a dreamer
But it's hard to sleep when your head's not in it
I've been restless
Cause you disappeared and that's all that's missing
The Earth is loose under my shoes
There's an angel
And he's shaped like you, and I thought I knew him
There's a window
And it's dark inside, but the light was in it
This can't be love if it hurts so much
I need to let go
I will survive and be the one who's stronger
I will not beg you to stay
I will move on and you should know I mean it
Wild horses run in me
I remember
How we danced so close, I would stand on your feet
And the phone calls
That would last all night, they were lifeboats to me
Our fading scars just shooting stars
They're here, then go
I will survive and be the one who's stronger
I will not beg you to stay
I will move on and you should know I mean it
Wild horses run in me
Our human hearts forget how strong they are
And they get lost along the way, hey
It's not giving up, it's letting go
And moving to a better place
I will survive and be the one who's stronger
I will not beg you to stay
I will move on and you should know I mean it
Wild horses run in me
I will survive and be the one who's stronger
I will not beg you to stay
I will move on and you should know I mean it
Wild horses run in me
But it's hard to sleep when your head's not in it
I've been restless
Cause you disappeared and that's all that's missing
The Earth is loose under my shoes
There's an angel
And he's shaped like you, and I thought I knew him
There's a window
And it's dark inside, but the light was in it
This can't be love if it hurts so much
I need to let go
I will survive and be the one who's stronger
I will not beg you to stay
I will move on and you should know I mean it
Wild horses run in me
I remember
How we danced so close, I would stand on your feet
And the phone calls
That would last all night, they were lifeboats to me
Our fading scars just shooting stars
They're here, then go
I will survive and be the one who's stronger
I will not beg you to stay
I will move on and you should know I mean it
Wild horses run in me
Our human hearts forget how strong they are
And they get lost along the way, hey
It's not giving up, it's letting go
And moving to a better place
I will survive and be the one who's stronger

I will move on and you should know I mean it
Wild horses run in me

Lost It All
Give a little time to me
Give a little trust and you'd see
Give a little peace of mind
You never know what you might find
Oh, if this is what dreams are made of
Then I think that I've seen enough
Oh, I've given you all of my love
But it's still not enough
You told me that you light my way
You're clever with the words you say, yeah
Let me out into the dark
I took a little step too far
Oh, if this is what dreams are made of
Then I think that I've seen enough
Oh, I've given you all of my love
But it's still not enough
Oh, it hurts (Lost control)
Oh, it hurts (Lost it all)
It hurts sometimes, sometimes
If this is what dreams are made of
Then I think that I've seen enough
Oh, I've given you all of my love
But it's still not enough
A bitter heart
You let me down
But you'll never lose
What you'll never found
Give a little trust and you'd see
Give a little peace of mind
You never know what you might find
Oh, if this is what dreams are made of
Then I think that I've seen enough
Oh, I've given you all of my love
But it's still not enough
You told me that you light my way
You're clever with the words you say, yeah
Let me out into the dark
I took a little step too far
Oh, if this is what dreams are made of
Then I think that I've seen enough
Oh, I've given you all of my love
But it's still not enough
Oh, it hurts (Lost control)
Oh, it hurts (Lost it all)
It hurts sometimes, sometimes
If this is what dreams are made of
Then I think that I've seen enough
Oh, I've given you all of my love
But it's still not enough
A bitter heart
You let me down
But you'll never lose
What you'll never found

Silhouette
There are shadows in my dreams
Storms that send me out to reach
And you just wait on my defeat
So I built an army underneath
And now they got me while I sleep
And this worn-out frame will carry me
Don't go holding your breath
You know that I'm not done yet
There's still a fight in me left
Don't go shouting out loud
That you're claiming the crown
I'm done but not out
And the bittersweet of every new defeat
Is I'm stronger than before
Baby, on my knees, but I still believe
These broken wings will soar
Undone, my silhouette, it's all that is left of a broken heart
Leave all of my regrets to sink like shipwrecks
Through oceans dark
In the dust I wrote my name
And from the ruins, hopes were praised
Cause all that's messed can be replaced in time
Don't go holding your breath
You know that I'm not done yet
There's still a fight in me left
Don't go shouting out loud
That you're claiming the crown
I'm done but not out
And the bittersweet of every new defeat
Is I'm stronger than before
Baby, on my knees, but I still believe
These broken wings will soar
Undone, my silhouette, it's all that is left of a broken heart
Leave all of my regrets to sink like shipwrecks
Through oceans dark
Undone, my silhouette, it's all that is left of a broken heart
Leave all of my regrets to sink like shipwrecks
Through oceans dark
Storms that send me out to reach
And you just wait on my defeat
So I built an army underneath
And now they got me while I sleep
And this worn-out frame will carry me
Don't go holding your breath
You know that I'm not done yet
There's still a fight in me left
Don't go shouting out loud
That you're claiming the crown

Take My Heart
Fallen so far
Said you'd watch over my heart
Your love was so real
Too late to forget how you made me feel
Tell me what I was supposed to believe
Held me so close I could hardly breathe
And now I can't find how to let you go
You were mine but you've grown so cold
Say it's all in my head
I remember when you said
"I'll never let you go"
Held me in the dark
Sheltered as you took my heart
I could never let you go, ooh
Say it's all in my head
Remember when you said
"I'll never let you go"
Oh, hold me in the dark
Sheltered as you take my heart
Take my heart
Kiss me, pretend
Tell me all your love lies again
Cast your shadows
Like how you said you'd catch me but let me go
You said I could have been free if I wanted to
I know you could see I was lost in you
Said you'd let me be if I wanted you to
And I know you'll leave but I don't want you to
Say it's all in my head
I remember when you said
"I'll never let you go"
Held me in the dark
Sheltered as you took my heart
I could never let you go, ooh
Say it's all in my head
Remember when you said
"I'll never let you go"
Oh, hold me in the dark
Sheltered as you take my heart
Take my heart
So take my heart for your love
I'll let you break it, part every piece of me
So take my heart, it's all that's left
Take my heart
Say it's all in my head
I remember what you said
Hold me in the dark
Sheltered as you take my heart
Take my heart
Said you'd watch over my heart
Your love was so real
Too late to forget how you made me feel
Tell me what I was supposed to believe
Held me so close I could hardly breathe
And now I can't find how to let you go
You were mine but you've grown so cold
Say it's all in my head
I remember when you said
"I'll never let you go"
Held me in the dark
Sheltered as you took my heart
I could never let you go, ooh
Say it's all in my head
Remember when you said
"I'll never let you go"
Oh, hold me in the dark
Sheltered as you take my heart
Take my heart
Kiss me, pretend
Tell me all your love lies again
Cast your shadows
Like how you said you'd catch me but let me go
You said I could have been free if I wanted to
I know you could see I was lost in you
Said you'd let me be if I wanted you to
And I know you'll leave but I don't want you to
Say it's all in my head

I could never let you go, ooh
Say it's all in my head
Remember when you said

Oh, hold me in the dark
Sheltered as you take my heart
Take my heart
So take my heart for your love
I'll let you break it, part every piece of me
So take my heart, it's all that's left
Take my heart
Say it's all in my head
I remember what you said
Hold me in the dark
Sheltered as you take my heart
Take my heart

Hear You Calling
Some mistakes
Are harder to recover from
And I miss the days
I could take my make up and put a brave face on
Oh, my beautiful summer
How the winter makes me wonder
Where you've gone
Oh, my beautiful summer
How the winter makes me wonder
Where you've gone
Every night when the sun goes down
And I'm left in this lonely town
I hear you calling me, hear you calling me, yeah
Everytime that I say goodbye
Every night when I close my eyes
I hear you calling me, hear you calling me
Memories lie
There's no such thing as a perfect life
Oh, and I let it die
But looking back I can't remember why
Oh, my beautiful summer
How the winter makes me wonder
Where you've gone
Oh, my beautiful lover
We were perfect for each other
I was wrong
Every night when the suckle start
And I'm left in this lonely town
I hear you calling me, hear you calling me, yeah
Everytime that I say goodbye
Every night when I close my eyes
I hear you calling me, hear you calling me
Take me home, take me home, don't know this place
Are you there watching if I'm lying awake?
Thinking of you
Take me home, take me home, don't know this place
Are you there watching if I'm lying awake?
Thinking of you
Oh, my beautiful summer
How the winter makes me wonder
Where you've gone
Every night when the suckle start
And I'm left in this lonely town
I hear you calling me, hear you calling me, yeah
Everytime that I say goodbye
Every night when I close my eyes
I hear you calling me, hear you calling me
I hear you calling
I hear you calling
Me, me
Are harder to recover from
And I miss the days
I could take my make up and put a brave face on
Oh, my beautiful summer
How the winter makes me wonder
Where you've gone
Oh, my beautiful summer
How the winter makes me wonder
Where you've gone
Every night when the sun goes down

Words
Waiting on you
Trying to keep your head strong
With nothing to lose
You raise your voice with something to prove
And all the things you say to me
I can't forget them
You don't leave
But you tell me with your eyes what you need
Oh, please
Do you think that I don't know what it means?
All the things you hide for me
I accept them
But I need you next to me
If I can't hold you now
Keep thinking that you might not come around
I have no words, I have no words to say
If I can't change your mind
Keep thinking, is this our last goodbye?
You say it first, you say it first to me
You're in the clear
While I'm waking up to nothing but tears
And you say they've said
That I'm the only one that needed to change
You know the things you've said to me
Do you regret them?
I just need you next to me
If I can't hold you now
Keep thinking that you might not come around
I have no words, I have no words to say
If I can't change your mind
Keep thinking, is this our last goodbye?
You say it first, you say it first to me
So I can't just forget you, just forget you
Can't just forget you, just forget you
And If I can't hold you now
Keep thinking how you might not come around
And I have no words, I have no words to say
If I can't change your mind
Keep thinking, is this our last goodbye?
You say it first, you say it first to me
If I can't hold you now (If I can't hold you now)
Keep thinking that you might not come around (Might not come around)
I have no words, I have no words to say
If I can't change your mind (If I can't change your mind)
Keep thinking, is this our last goodbye? (Our last goodbye?)
You say it first, you say it first to me
Trying to keep your head strong
With nothing to lose
You raise your voice with something to prove
And all the things you say to me
I can't forget them
You don't leave
But you tell me with your eyes what you need
Oh, please
Do you think that I don't know what it means?
All the things you hide for me
I accept them
But I need you next to me
If I can't hold you now
Keep thinking that you might not come around
I have no words, I have no words to say
If I can't change your mind
Keep thinking, is this our last goodbye?
You say it first, you say it first to me
You're in the clear
While I'm waking up to nothing but tears
And you say they've said
That I'm the only one that needed to change
You know the things you've said to me
Do you regret them?
I just need you next to me
If I can't hold you now
Keep thinking that you might not come around
I have no words, I have no words to say
If I can't change your mind
Keep thinking, is this our last goodbye?
You say it first, you say it first to me
So I can't just forget you, just forget you
Can't just forget you, just forget you
And If I can't hold you now
Keep thinking how you might not come around
And I have no words, I have no words to say
If I can't change your mind
Keep thinking, is this our last goodbye?
You say it first, you say it first to me
If I can't hold you now (If I can't hold you now)
Keep thinking that you might not come around (Might not come around)
I have no words, I have no words to say
If I can't change your mind (If I can't change your mind)
Keep thinking, is this our last goodbye? (Our last goodbye?)
You say it first, you say it first to me

Save Yourself
Love shouldn't cost a thing
Tell me why
I'm paying for everything
Pretending it's fine
Heaven knows, heaven knows
We're forever changing
Heaven knows, heaven knows
There's no way to save us
Look at what we have become
Empty hearts that spare no one
Save yourself, my darling
Just be gone by morning
After all is said and done
Still this war cannot be won
So save yourself, my darling
Kill the love that's dying
I don't know where you've been
Where you hide
You're here but I feel no thing
In your eyes
Heaven knows, heaven knows
We're forever changing
Heaven knows, heaven knows
There's no way to save us
Look at what we have become
Empty hearts that spare no one
Save yourself, my darling
Just be gone by morning
After all is said and done
Still this war cannot be won
So save yourself, my darling
Kill the love that's dying
Look at what we have become
Empty hearts that spare no one
Save yourself, my darling
Kill the love that's dying
Tell me why
I'm paying for everything
Pretending it's fine
Heaven knows, heaven knows
We're forever changing
Heaven knows, heaven knows
There's no way to save us
Look at what we have become
Empty hearts that spare no one
Save yourself, my darling
Just be gone by morning
After all is said and done
Still this war cannot be won
So save yourself, my darling
Kill the love that's dying
I don't know where you've been
Where you hide
You're here but I feel no thing
In your eyes
Heaven knows, heaven knows
We're forever changing
Heaven knows, heaven knows
There's no way to save us
Look at what we have become
Empty hearts that spare no one
Save yourself, my darling
Just be gone by morning
After all is said and done
Still this war cannot be won
So save yourself, my darling
Kill the love that's dying
Look at what we have become
Empty hearts that spare no one
Save yourself, my darling
Kill the love that's dying

Unbroken
Could you keep your head up?
When you're losing ground
Could you keep your head up?
Everything you once loved
Like your own blood
Comes crumbling down
Could you keep your head up?
Sometimes the tears we cry
Are more than any heart can take
We hurt, just keep it inside
Small wonder that it starts to break
Many moons will lighten the way
And sure this night will follow a day
And everything you once loved remains
Unbroken, unbroken
Could you find a daydream?
In the dead of night
Could you find a daydream
Keep a quiet victory
To a whisper
In an uphill fight
Could you keep your head up
Sometimes the tears we cry
Are more than any heart can take
We hurt, just keep it inside
Small wonder that it starts to break
Many moons will lighten the way
And sure this night will follow a day
And everything you once loved remains
Unbroken, unbroken
Everything you once loved lies unbroken
Many moons will light us
Many moons will guide us
Everything you once loved lies unbroken
Leave the past behind us
Leave the past behind us
Many moons will lighten the way
And sure this night will follow a day
And everything you once loved remains
Unbroken, unbroken, unbroken
When you're losing ground
Could you keep your head up?
Everything you once loved
Like your own blood
Comes crumbling down
Could you keep your head up?
Sometimes the tears we cry
Are more than any heart can take
We hurt, just keep it inside
Small wonder that it starts to break
Many moons will lighten the way
And sure this night will follow a day
And everything you once loved remains
Unbroken, unbroken
Could you find a daydream?
In the dead of night
Could you find a daydream
Keep a quiet victory
To a whisper
In an uphill fight
Could you keep your head up
Sometimes the tears we cry
Are more than any heart can take
We hurt, just keep it inside
Small wonder that it starts to break
Many moons will lighten the way
And sure this night will follow a day
And everything you once loved remains
Unbroken, unbroken
Everything you once loved lies unbroken
Many moons will light us
Many moons will guide us
Everything you once loved lies unbroken
Leave the past behind us
Leave the past behind us
Many moons will lighten the way
And sure this night will follow a day
And everything you once loved remains
Unbroken, unbroken, unbroken

Beautiful Lies
Beautiful lies
Cover my eyes with your hands
Just pretend we're better
Turn out the light
There are no more surprises to come
Let's be numb together
The world's so fast and nothing lasts
Let's save it while we can
Cause I want to be forever
Like smoke in the air
Float like a feather going nowhere
Lost in the silence
I don't need to be free
Kill me with kindness
And please
Tell me beautiful lies
I wish that I had the strength to let go, but I don't
I'm paralyzed
I see the child in your eyes and I'm stuck in the headlights
I know too well that time will tell
It's easy to forget
Cause I want to be forever
Like smoke in the air
Float like a feather going nowhere
Lost in the silence
I don't need to be free
Kill me with kindness
And please
Oh, well, I've tried to be open
But I've found it's hard when you're broken
And in the heat of the moment, we're free
So please, please
Please
Tell me beautiful lies
Cover my eyes with your hands
Just pretend we're better
Turn out the light
There are no more surprises to come
Let's be numb together
Cover my eyes with your hands
Just pretend we're better
Turn out the light
There are no more surprises to come
Let's be numb together
The world's so fast and nothing lasts
Let's save it while we can
Cause I want to be forever
Like smoke in the air
Float like a feather going nowhere
Lost in the silence
I don't need to be free
Kill me with kindness
And please
Tell me beautiful lies
I wish that I had the strength to let go, but I don't
I'm paralyzed
I see the child in your eyes and I'm stuck in the headlights
I know too well that time will tell
It's easy to forget
Cause I want to be forever
Like smoke in the air
Float like a feather going nowhere
Lost in the silence
I don't need to be free
Kill me with kindness
And please
Oh, well, I've tried to be open
But I've found it's hard when you're broken
And in the heat of the moment, we're free
So please, please
Please
Tell me beautiful lies
Cover my eyes with your hands
Just pretend we're better
Turn out the light
There are no more surprises to come
Let's be numb together

Beating Heart
There's a beating in your heart
That takes you everywhere
That take you anywhere
You've been reaching in the dark
Like there's no one there
You think there's no one there
You've been trying too hard trying to start
It takes time, don't lose yourself
Don't keep fighting your heart, stay as you are
Don't change for anyone else
Say it's the wrong way to [?] be
You don't have to be
Afraid of what you think you're not, you'll see
Say, it's not wrong, let the words run free
I know what you mean
You'll find someone who loves you just as much as me
There's a beating in your heart
That takes you everywhere
That take you anywhere
You're afraid of coming last
You see it everywhere
You think you never get there
You've been trying too hard trying to start
It takes time, don't lose yourself
Don't keep fighting your heart, stay as you are
Don't change for anyone else
Say it's the wrong way to [?] be
You don't have to be
Afraid of what you think you're not, you'll see
Say, it's not wrong, let the words run free
I know what you mean
You'll find someone who loves you just as much as me
Lay your head on my knees
You can come fighting me
Close your eyes and be free
Say it's the wrong way to [?] be
You don't have to be
Afraid of what you think you're not, you'll see
Say, it's not wrong, let the words run free
I know what you mean
You'll find someone who loves you just as much as me
That takes you everywhere
That take you anywhere
You've been reaching in the dark
Like there's no one there
You think there's no one there
You've been trying too hard trying to start
It takes time, don't lose yourself
Don't keep fighting your heart, stay as you are
Don't change for anyone else
Say it's the wrong way to [?] be
You don't have to be
Afraid of what you think you're not, you'll see
Say, it's not wrong, let the words run free
I know what you mean
You'll find someone who loves you just as much as me
There's a beating in your heart
That takes you everywhere
That take you anywhere
You're afraid of coming last
You see it everywhere

Winter
It's so cold, baby, it's dark outside
Winter coats creeping into the night
And it's so hard when I just wanna hold you tight
Breaks my heart, but nothing can break this ice
Hold on, hold on, baby, just be strong
And I'll be honest and let you go
This is the reason and you should know
Through all that you promise, I can't see
Not in your dreams ever have time for me?
So this is the reason I let you go
And I will be honest and you should know
Through all that you promise, I can't see
Not in your dreams ever have time for me?
And it's so quiet, baby, it's hard to breathe
Black as ink, the silence is deafening
And it's so hard to look into distant lights
And feel your heart solitary way from mine
So long, so long, baby, you're long gone
And I'll be honest and let you go
This is the reason and you should know
Through all that you promise, I can't see
Not in your dreams ever have time for me?
So this is the reason I let you go
I will be honest and you should know
Through all that you promise, I can't see
Not in your dreams ever have time for me?
In none of your dreams, take me with you
None of your dreams, let me love you
None of your dreams, take me with you
Take me with you
None of your dreams, take me with you
None of your dreams, let me love you
None of your dreams, take me with you
Take me with you
None of your dreams, take me with you
None of your dreams, let me love you
None of your dreams, take me with you
Take me with you
None of your dreams, take me with you
None of your dreams, let me love you
None of your dreams, take me with you
Take me with you
None of your dreams, take me with you
None of your dreams, let me love you
None of your dreams, take me with you
Take me with you
None of your dreams, take me with you
Winter coats creeping into the night
And it's so hard when I just wanna hold you tight
Breaks my heart, but nothing can break this ice
Hold on, hold on, baby, just be strong
And I'll be honest and let you go
This is the reason and you should know
Through all that you promise, I can't see
Not in your dreams ever have time for me?
So this is the reason I let you go
And I will be honest and you should know
Through all that you promise, I can't see
Not in your dreams ever have time for me?
And it's so quiet, baby, it's hard to breathe
Black as ink, the silence is deafening
And it's so hard to look into distant lights
And feel your heart solitary way from mine
So long, so long, baby, you're long gone

So this is the reason I let you go

Take me with you
None of your dreams, take me with you

Give Up
I find myself in these four walls
Wishing for somewhere else
I've lost myself like this before
Calling out for your help
All the times I won't believe
Yours will be the voice that is on my shoulder
All the things you've said to me
Written on my heart every word you've spoken
I know you, you'll never give up on me, give up on me
If always I'll let you give up on me, give up on me
Oh, when I'm out of place, when I'm losing faith
You're the one that never lefts me wrong
You'll never give up on me, give up on me, give up on me
Inside my head I've been at war
Trying to find some peace
If you can't see an open door
Teach me how to be free
All the times I won't believe
Yours will be the voice that is on my shoulder
All the things you've said to me
Written on my heart every word you've spoken
I know you, you'll never give up on me, give up on me
If always I'll let you give up on me, give up on me
Oh, when I'm out of place, when I'm losing faith
You're the one that never lefts me wrong
You'll never give up on me, give up on me, give up on me
Til you get here I'll be holding on, holding on
You'll always spoke the words that make me strong, make me strong
I know you, you'll never give up on me, give up on me
If always I'll let you give up on me, give up on me
Oh, when I'm out of place, when I'm losing faith
You're the one that never lefts me wrong
You'll' never give up on me, yeah
I know you, you'll never give up on me, give up on me
If always I've let you give up on me, give up on me
Oh, when I'm out of place, when I'm losing faith
You're the one that never lefts me wrong
You'll never give up on me, give up on me, give up on me
Wishing for somewhere else
I've lost myself like this before
Calling out for your help
All the times I won't believe
Yours will be the voice that is on my shoulder
All the things you've said to me
Written on my heart every word you've spoken

Start Again
Tied away, tied away
Take it all, take it all
And I don't care anymore
And you can lie all you like
All that's done has make me fight
And shake the truth inside my soul
I'm tired pretending
Keep my believes suspending
Cause underneath
I'm starting to wake from silence sleep
I'm starting to break and I can grieve
I'm starting to see that I know how
To love, to lose, to work it out
I'm starting to heal and find some faith
I'm starting to feel what side of place
Don't need you to save me, I can't wait
To fool, to fail and start again
Hurricane, hurricane
Take it all, take it all
Swing me round and back again
And you can talk, you can talk
All it's done is start a war
With nothing really to defend
I'm tired pretending
Keep my believes suspending
Cause underneath
I'm starting to wake from silence sleep
I'm starting to break and I can grieve
I'm starting to see that I know how
To love, to lose, to work it out
I'm starting to heal and find some faith
I'm starting to feel what side of place
Don't need you to save me, I can't wait
To fool, to fail and start again
Hey, hey
To start again
Hey, hey
To start again
I'm starting to wake from silence sleep
I'm starting to break and I can grieve
I'm starting to see that I know how
To love, to lose, to work it out
I'm starting to heal and find some faith
I'm starting to feel what side of place
Don't need you to save me, I can't wait
To fool, to fail and start again
Take it all, take it all
And I don't care anymore
And you can lie all you like
All that's done has make me fight
