Explode

It's easy to see what you do to me
When you come around I can't find words to say
Stumbling, can't find my way
I've never been so thrown off my game
I never thought I could feel so vulnerable
It's like you can see my soul
Can't look in your eyes
Feeling my temperature rise
I lose control
Feels like I might just explode
There's something about the way that you are
Disarmingly charming and you have this confidence
It kind of intimidates
You know what you want and when you looked at me
I knew I was in because there's no possible way
That I could ever turn away
When I look in your eyes
Feeling my temperature rise
I lose control
Feels like I might just explode

Better Without You
04:44
|
|||
|
If someone read your mind
I am sure they’d find
an empty space except for one
little tiny place
Where you keep your other face
And all your twisted lies
You lead me by my heart
Push and pulled apart
Telling me the things I wanted to hear
You played me for a fool
But now I see the truth
And it is time for me to walk away
I’m gonna be ok
Life will be better without you in it
I saved myself from more pain
And cut the cord
Almost blinded by your fascinating trick illusion
You almost had me fooled that you were someone worth my time
I knew you were too good to be true and I ignored my instincts
But now I see you clearly and it’s time to say goodbye to you
You have some tenacity
in your keeping up with me
the false appearances
it’s kinda flattering
That you took the time to bring
All you thought I ever wanted
It’s such a shame that your performance is all that it can be
And after the show is over all that’s left is an empty stage
I’m gonna be ok
Life will be better without you in it
Saved myself from more pain
I cut the cord before it sealed
Almost blinded by your fascinating trick illusion
You almost had me fooled that you were someone worth my time
I knew you were too good to be true and I ignored my instincts
But now I see you clearly and it’s time to say goodbye to you

Distracted
03:02
|
|||
|
Always looking for the next big thing
Well have you stopped to think that maybe what you have is all you need?
Always looking for another thrill,
well was it all you wanted, and will it matter tomorrow?
Living in an ADHD world where everything's distracting
overloaded, too much information and too many options
Always running to the next big goal
well did you even notice the roses along the way?
Always checking your social networks,
well do those 5,000 friends you follow really mean anything
(in the grand scheme of things)?
Living in an ADHD world where everything's distracting
overloaded, too much information and too many options
There are too many options

Self-Destruct
03:07
|
|||
|
Sometimes I need to self-destruct
Tear down the walls that I've built up
Smash right through the window panes
Throw my cares right down the drain
Start a fire and let myself burn, burn burn...
When things get stagnant
When everything is going right
I get antsy
The day gives way into the night
Blow up my mind
Let it go
Get it out
Self-destruct
A little chaos
Never hurt anyone
There's nothing that can't be fixed
If things get broken
Live the moment
Disregard the consequences
Break down
Shattering
Blow up my mind
Let it go
Get it out
Self-destruct

Apocalypse
04:41
|
|||
|
If the world ended now
I’d be ok
I’d have no regrets
I lived my life
Like every day was my last
Because
Time slips away
Like a breeze through a window
Forget about yesterday
Don’t wait til tomorrow
So many people seem to be afraid
Of what the future holds
Why live that way?
Surrender yourself to the unknown
Because
Time slips away
Like a breeze through a window
Forget about yesterday
Don’t wait til tomorrow
Today may be your last
So let yourself live
You never know
The world could end tomorrow

Familiar Strangers
06:08
|
|||
|
Your gaze has turned away from me
Off into space
It's like I'm not even here
What have I done to you
To make you feel so
disconnected
Mistrusting of me
Rage and tears breaking my heart
Your distance drives me out of my mind
Nowhere to go
Nothing else I could do but let my heart
Go numb
And cold
The callous grows so I can be like you
Indifferent to the change
If I should stay
Would you remain distant from me?
Can we return to the way things used to be?
Or are we resigned to be familiar strangers?
Is this you?
Was I a fool to think that you were someone else?
Playing me, pretending you cared for me
when obviously it was forced
I don't want to believe that is the truth
Because that would kill the foundation we built
If I should stay
Would you remain distant from me?
Can we return to the way things used to be?
Or are we resigned to be familiar strangers?
If I should stay
Would you remain distant from me?
Can we return to the way things used to be?
Or are we resigned to be familiar strangers?

Waiting
06:12
|
|||
|
I’ve been here waiting
For an eternity
For a sign worth reaching
Something that calls to me
And then when the sun rises I know it’s time
For me to get out of my head and move on
The world keeps on turning
It won’t stop for me
So why would I stop my world for you
Time is wasting
Nerves worn thin
No more chasing
Turning in
And then when the sun rises I know it’s time
For me to get out of my head and move on
The world keeps on turning
It won’t stop for me
So why would I stop my world for you

Another Day
04:02
|
|||
|
Another day, another chance
For you to stay, rebuild romance
Shaken by this massive quake
A nightmare which I hope to wake from
Every day that goes by
I wish for the pain to subside
I hope one day all this poison
finds its way out of me
I try to think of all the things to do
To get it out of my mind, to forgive you
All the sorrys in the world won’t do
What you did will always be our truth
And they say that time will heal our wounds
Now that you’ve opened the door
I see the light and it’s calling me
There’s nothing else to say
Just gotta make it through another day
Maybe one day
Things will be ok
Fake it until you believe it
There's nothing else to say
Just got to make it through another day

Undercurrents
07:37
|
|||
|
In between
Where the sky meets the earth
The lines are blurred
And in that time
When the night turns to day
An inconspicuous phase
In that space
Where the joy fades away
Into the ambivalence
Like the seasons
When the cold overtakes
The summer’s warmth
And I wonder then
If new beginnings are just an end
Circles keep moving around us
They’re always changing
And I wonder then
If new beginnings are just an end
Circles keep moving around us
They’ve always been there
What you see is not always what is
Underneath is a whole other world
Different perspectives but bring them together
And then you'll have a better understanding
And I wonder then
If new beginnings are just an end
Circles keep moving around us
They’ve always been there

After the Rain
04:53
|
|||
|
Is there anyone out there?
When everything falls apart
I’m left here on my own
In the middle of the storm
And there’s no one calling
When the skies are heavy and gray
No one comes around
When the rain is falling
The clouds will break away
The sun will rise again
Does it make me much stronger?
Getting through this alone
Or does it just weather
Breaking down my soul
Or maybe it’s my fault
Sheltered out here alone
I could’ve cried much louder
But the winds drown out my voice
The clouds will break away
The sun will rise again
And dry up all the rain
Make me whole again
And while the thunder shakes me
Better days lie ahead
The world will be renewed
After the rain
Everything will be clearer
The haze will have washed away
Every breath much sweeter
Life will again bloom
The clouds will break away
The sun will rise again
Dry up all the rain
Make me whole again

Cloud Gazing
04:34
|

|
Cloud gazing
Day dreaming
Watching the shapes
As they go by
Just lazing
Cloud gazing
My mind is clear
Like the sky
(And the day is fine)
A gold halo glows
Behind the white
Against the blue
And I know
Even through gray
That the light
Will shine through

Clair de Lune
03:52
|
|||
|
In the light of the moon, I awaken
Leave the day to rest
The night is inspiration
Sparks fly round like fireflies
The shadows dance
Dreams are seen through wakeful eyes
I'm in a trance
In the moonlight, I can see
Emotions clearly
Another side of me
My mind's unshackled and
I'm set free
In the light of the moon, I awaken
Leave the day to rest
The night is inspiration
Sparks fly round like fireflies
The shadows dance
Dreams are seen through wakeful eyes
I'm in a trance
