Second Hand 03:26
The knots we tie mean a lot 'till they're just the loose ends they imply We try and we try to make sense of the senseless and truth of the lies So tell me who's at fault when the fool decides to jump to the road underneath from the curb of a sidewalk, and expects to fly? Well soon this will be long ago, soon this will be long ago Your fingertips trace me so slow, but soon that will be long ago The webs we spin turn to dust so fast so how could we win? Atop of his highest branch he comes up beside me to cut off the limb So tell me who's at fault when the fool decides to jump in so shallow a puddle they found on the street-side, and expects to swim? Well soon this will be long ago, soon this will be long ago Your fingertips trace me so slow, but soon that will be long ago Little words blind your eyes, you won't reach no compromise You just call for fire Soon this will be long ago, soon this will be long ago The second hand just goes and goes and soon we will be long ago

Blame 03:39
Once upon a time when I was only mine, I only had me to blame if not feeling sublime Not a word about a boy Yeah there was a time before there was a crime, I never knew how I'd be if someone crossed the line Not a word about a boy Things that should never be said It's your ego I fed Don't worry I won't let it happen again It's too late to be bold Now your heart is stone cold In with the new, holding onto the old Every day we'd meet, assured and guaranteed. So it cut right to the core when you just pressed delete Couple words about a boy Was not an easy feat, I missed a couple beats. But all in all in the end I landed on my feet Couple words about a boy Things that should never be said It's your ego I fed Don't worry I won't let it happen again It's too late to be bold Now your heart is stone cold In with the new, holding onto the old You don't even know what you are How could I expect to tame you? You don't even know what you are It's not right for me to blame you Things that should never be said It's your ego I fed Don't worry I won't let it happen again It's too late to be bold Now your heart is stone cold In with the new, holding onto the old

On Your Feet 03:30
They're out there every morning, white figures in the snow They're at their work for hours, cursing all they know But we call out together trying to break every rule And we'll search forever for some diamonds and jewels As light as a feather but they're still in no mood Don't stop staring at me like I'm something you don't normally see There's some rushing to that stream and some sirens in the sea to keep you up on your feet On your feet The leaves up on the tree tops, falling from the cold Some of them get blown away while others turn a colour so bold And we call out together trying to break every rule And we'll search forever for some diamonds and jewels As light as a feather but they're still in no mood Don't stop staring at me like I'm something you don't normally see There's some rushing to that stream and some sirens in the sea to keep you up on your feet On your feet Like we would heed your warnings Keep it up, keep it up Your never-ending stories Give it up, give it up now Don't stop staring at me like I'm something you don't normally see There's some rushing to that stream and some sirens in the sea to keep you up on your feet On your feet

Suddenly 04:15
I love your pretty words but I don't know how I should react I'm reeling you in knowing that I'll have to throw you back And I don't want to be the kind of girl who would do that Please just understand I can hardly even tell where I am at Don't worry about leaving me, suddenly I know, you know you can't ever be the rest of me I hope that you don't ever doubt what I said, hope you don't pull the thread Just believe me that I was compelled by something that I felt You caught me by surprise now things seem so complicated, don't they? I learned long ago baby timing was never my forté Wasting this potential seems wrong, I wish I didn't have to do that Gotta go with higher stakes, wish I could keep you close but I can't Don't worry about leaving me, suddenly I know, you know you can't ever be the rest of me I hope that you don't ever doubt what I said, hope you don't pull the thread Just believe me that I was compelled by something that I felt And I don't want you to ever change your shape Like a fast car you were my escape Such a pity to throw this all away So much harder to do than to say Don't worry about leaving me, suddenly I know, you know you can't ever be the rest of me I hope that you don't ever doubt what I said, hope you don't pull the thread Just believe me that I was compelled by something that I felt

The Sound 04:37
Looking for the flare but don't see any sign Leaves rustle in the moonlight playing tricks on me Run until they give out, you're nowhere in sight Voices in my head, words never easy to find Still see the look on your face, hey Ashes falling like rain, hey What's gone could never, no it could never... Pick up, pick up, pick up, I can't make it alone Thought give up, give up, all up, and I'm left with the sound Pick up, pick up, pick up, I can't make it alone Thought give up, give up, on us, and I'm left with the sound of my heart Sun's way beneath the clouds, now. Went so long ago Waves picking up the sound - just echo, echo, echo Still see the look on your face, hey Ashes falling like rain, hey What's gone could never, no it could never... Pick up, pick up, pick up, I can't make it alone Thought give up, give up, all up, and I'm left with the sound Pick up, pick up, pick up, I can't make it alone Thought give up, give up, on us, and I'm left with the sound of my heart
