Love (feat. John Kenza)
03:55
|
|||
(v1)
I can't believe that I thought it'd be easy
Well I guess that no one's perfect
I was deceived by a thing we call dreamin'
'Cause I thought I couldn't hurt it
Now look at me, it's so easy to see
Something's hidin' what I asked for
It's been years now
And I'm still seekin' it out, oh
(chorus)
Maybe I'm only stuck
On my own cloud above
Maybe it's okay
Or maybe I'm insane
Maybe it's meant to be so tough
Ohhhhh, or maybe all I need is love
(v2)
Once again, I can feel myself fadin'
But I see a new life being colored in
I can tell that my heart is done achin'
But I wonder if I've gained another skin
I can't stop this transformation
An odd sensation's takin' me for a ride
All the way back through my mind
|
||||
2. |
||||
(v1)
Don't really know if she saw me
I wonder if I'll ever learn
Oh yes, I know I'll be sorry
If I don't make it clear to her
The lady's got a knack for excellence
Clearly not an accident
Elegant perfection she is
Yeah, she's the girl who's got everything
But emptiness
(chorus)
But (So) will you ever share with me?
My little fashionista can't get a break
Too many things to do
And there's no escaping your gravity
I guess it's obvious that others are drawn
The way I am to you
And how could I blame them?
(v2)
Will she see me when surely I'm invisible?
Will she hear me if I don't make a sound at all?
Why am I fighting a losing battle?
And why from the lower ground?
Well, they told me my heart would carry me around
(repeat chorus)
|
||||
3. |
||||
(v1)
Something tells me my life is about to change
Like I'm never going back
And I feel as if nothing will be the same
As if everything goes black
Call me out if it seems like I'm paranoid
Well, it extends beyond the eye
There's so much fear inside
(chorus)
(what are the odds)
What are the odds that I would find myself where I began?
(what are the odds)
How high is the chance of running 'round in circles now and then?
(what are the odds)
Maybe it's all in my mind, but it's about time I read the signs
Oh, it's about time!
It's about time!
(v2)
What if all that I do is insignificant?
What if nothing matters now?
I would take back the time wasted if I could
But I don't even know how
All my worries have lead me to emptiness
But at least I've been around
At least it's over now
(repeat chorus)
(what are the odds)
What are the odds that I would find myself where I began?
(what are the odds)
How high is the chance of running 'round in circles now and then?
(what are the odds)
Maybe it's all in my mind, but it's about time I read the signs
Oh, it's about time!
It's about time!

(v1)
Would you say it now?
Wouldn't you stil say yes if I asked nicely enough?
Or would you go and just make the same mistake?
I tried listening, but all I got were excuses and a silence from you
I hope you know you won't get another take
Why'd you bother coming back if you knew I'd say
(chorus 1)
I don't need you now
Don't even think about it
You couldn't get me back if you tried
Don't give me that
Already had your chance
No reason to wonder why
Once upon a time, I was in love with a boy who didn't miss me enough
I guess I'm not much to miss
(v2)
What did you expect?
What'd you hope to find when you went off and changed your mind
Though I know you won't tell me anyway
If you look around, you can clearly see that hearts are no to be toyed with
And that's why they call it playing games
Thought you got an extra life, but it's game over
(chorus 2)
I don't need you now
Don't even think about it
You couldn't get me back if you tried
Don't give me that
Already had your chance
No reason to wonder why
Once upon a time, I was in love with a boy who didn't miss me enough
I guess you're not missing much
I guess I'm not much to miss
(bridge)
She's a lucky find, I hope you treat her right
Maybe with some time you'll forget me
(repeat chorus 2)

Hello (Album Version)
03:10
|
|||
(v1)
My my, I guess you choose who you choose
Nice try, you always win or you lose
Sometimes I feel it's not worth helping
I know I may be one of kind
It's strange to think she'd give me a try
But it's still a little underwhelming
(chorus)
I'll never know the feeling of being loved
And I'll never feel the warmth of the sun above
My heart is cold, and soul is growing old
But I'll still be waiting for the day when she'll say
The day when she'll say hello
The day when she'll say hello
(v2)
So hard to see her all of the time
Outside turning all other eyes
Feels like another hopeless story
I've dreamt of one day catching her eye
With her attention only mine
But it's still a little too much for me
(Repeat chorus)
But I'll still be waiting for the day when she'll say
The day when she'll say hello
|
||||
6. |
||||
(v1)
Day to another, All with each other
One by the other, Always together somehow
Without a reason, Change in the season
Killing the feeling, Burning and bleeding out
Sudden disconnection here
And it just goes around
No-oh!
(chorus)
Give me back my destiny
Tell me who I'm supposed to be
Even if I'm sound asleep
I'll be waiting patiently
Put me in place
Color me in
Fill in the blanks
Let me begin again
Or I'm a silhouette
(v2)
We were gonna be the heroes of the world
But we were caught up in the tangles and the curls of life
Someone tell me that it's all a little lie
I can see it but I don't know what I did this time
Now I have to find a way to make it all okay
No-oh!
(repeat chorus)
(bridge)
It'll never be the same
Like in all the good old days
But without you I feel incomplete
Never gonna settle down
Not until your safe and sound
You're all exactly what I need
(repeat half chorus)
(repeat chorus)
Or I'm a silhouette

A Sound I'll Never Know
03:33
|
|||
(v1)
There's an echo out in the outside world
There's a whispering in the breeze
If you're listening though the falling leaves
There's a dream for everything
(pre-chorus)
All I've ever wanted is a friend
Someone who understands me
and doesn't just pretend
(chorus)
I know they're out there somewhere
Just waiting to say hello
And I hear their voices calling
But with this fear of eyes
It's a sound I'll never know
(v2)
It's another day with the same blue sky
And the same sunrise of yesterday
I'm a distance out from the city lights
And I know I shouldn't stay
(repeat pre-chorus)
All I've ever wanted is a friend
Someone who understands me
and doesn't just pretend
(repeat chorus)
I know they're out there somewhere
Just waiting to say hello
And I hear their voices calling
But with this fear of eyes
It's a sound I'll never know
(bridge)
One would think I’d learn
After the first time
Loneliness just hurts
After a lifetime
(repeat chorus)
I know there's someone out there
Just waiting to say hello
And I hear their voices calling me
But with this fear of eyes
It's a sound I'll never know
Never know…
|

8. |

(v1)
With an ever-caring soul and soft blue eyes
And a kindness from your heart, you've stolen mine
Let me borrow you a moment
Can you see where this is goin'?
Don't be afraid, I'm always right behind
'Cause you make my heart flutter
You make my heart flutter
(chorus)
It's a thought in my mind
It's a feeling inside
You make my heart flutter
You make my heart flutter
I can see it's a sign
But you make me so blind
You make my heart flutter
You make my heart flutter
(v2)
All the judging eyes, clouding up your day
And the harmful words, everything they say
But no matter what the weather
You're as beautiful as ever
Come along with me, there's nothing in our way
'Cause you make my heart flutter
You make my heart flutter
(repeat chorus)
It's a thought in my mind
It's a feeling inside
You make my heart flutter
You make my heart flutter
I can see it's a sign
But you make me so blind
You make my heart flutter
You make my heart flutter
(guitar solo)
(repeat chorus)
It's a thought in my mind
It's a feeling inside
You make my heart flutter
You make my heart flutter
I can see it's a sign
But you make me so blind
You make my heart flutter
You make my heart flutter

House of Glass (2018)
04:31
|
|||
(v1A)
I've seen enough here, to feel I don't belong
My imagination, again has lead me on
This stubborn aching, has a mind of its own
I've left, but I won't tell you where I've gone
(v1B)
I've never known that, the world could be so mean
I'll never go back, to who I used to be
A steady runway, is all that I would need
To reason with myself behind the scenes
(chorus)
(Is it me)
Is it me, or can you see through my walls
As if they'd never shown?
(Could it be)
Could it be, all because of my lies
I've broken my own bones
(No more throwing stones)
(v2A)
I could have sworn I, I had a life before
My short attention, had wanted something more
I can't erase it, I know I won't forget
But at least I learned my lesson in the end
(v2B)
Oh, winter breezes, were never gone so fast
It's straight ahead now, and no more looking back
Like separation, letting go of the past
And trying to rebuild my house of glass
(repeat chorus x2)
|

10. |

(v1)
My little home
This little town
They don't need me
My simple life
This simple grin
They betray me
Their lying eyes
My cracking shell
Their phony smiles
My low morale
Emotional warfare
Has got the best of me
(chorus)
When you're without me
It'll be easy to share
And if you need me
You can pretend I'm there
You'll never see me
We'll never meet again
'Cause even without me
You have your other friends
(v2)
I wonder how
They'd think of me
If I left them
They wouldn't care
They wouldn't mind
And I wouldn't let them
No serenade
No lullaby
No metaphor
Can change my mind
'Cause somewhere out there
Is my "Once upon a time"
(repeat chorus)
When you're without me
It'll be easy to share
And if you need me
You can pretend I'm there
You'll never see me
We'll never meet again
'Cause even without me
You have your other friends

Stay (2018)
04:01
|
|||
(v1)
I always wished that my eyes were playing tricks on me
Whenever I'd see your names
Engraved upon stones cut out just for you
At least they're not the same
(pre-chorus)
I'm reminded every day that your gone
But could you show a little mercy for once?
(chorus)
And won't you stay in my dreams?
And don't you ever leave
Don't make me miss you any more than I do
So won't you stay in my dreams?
(v2)
I'd never go as far as pleading for a miracle
Cause time has its own mind
But you should know that I've locked up all those memories
'Cause you were my best find
(Repeat pre-chorus)
(short chorus)
So, won't you stay in my dreams?
And don't you ever leave
Don't make me miss you any more than I do
So won't you stay
(Bridge)
In my dreams?
I took your friendship for granted
Ooooohhh
But I should be grateful I had it
And look what happened
(repeat short chorus)
(repeat short chorus)
|
||||
12. |
||||
(v1)
I saved a row even though
I know it won't be taken
I thought at first you'd never go
I was so mistaken
I was told
Life won't last forever
But I've gone beyond the marker
(chorus)
What's one to do
How's one to feel
Where's one to go
When their heart won't open?
So far away
Yet so nearby
Feels as if someone's still watching over me
So here's to hoping
(v2)
Now-a-days I pick and choose
My circumstances
I don't believe fate is up
For givin' second chances
If I'm right
Time goes on forever
Feels like there's so much to remember
(repeat chorus)
(bridge)
So here's to holding on to a little faith
Keepin' up with the present day
Standing well with the friends I made
Making sure that I don't lose my way
(repeat chorus)
So here's to hoping
|
||||
13. |
||||
(v1)
I still go strolling through the town
It's not so hard to figure out
'Cause I love to be out and about
But only sometimes, only sometimes
(v2)
I still go flying through the blue
There's not much left for me to do
You'd find it soothing if you knew
But only sometimes, only sometimes
Only sometimes, only sometimes
(Chorus)
Oh, the sun burns
But it's never
Enough to light up all around the world
You don't know me
You can't find me
You won't see behind my eyes
Until the sunrise
(v2)
I still go wand'ring in the rain
No other way to ease the pain
Feels like just rinsing off the stain
But only sometimes, only sometimes
(Bridge)
Oh, it's been said
I'm lost and alone
But it won't bother me
As I sit inside my throne
(Chorus)
Oh, the sun burns
But it's never
Enough to light up all around the world
You don't know me
You can't find me
You won't see behind my eyes
Until the sunrise
|
||||
14. |
||||
(v1)
Tell me it's personal, then say it twice
But I can hear even more behind your eyes
There's no illusion when you hide your lies
Why don't we sit and talk a while?
(v2)
I don't want to take too long, or long at all
Just tell me how you feel, and share your thoughts
When I was your age I never felt the same
But you can tell me anyway
(chorus)
Don't run away
You can pack your bags
Buy your ticket
take your train
You don't have to wait a day
Don't run away
The rain will soon come down
One day wash away this town
You can leave, but don't run away
(v3)
I hope you're listening just like you say
I need a shoulder I can lean on for the day
I have been feeling like I must be on my way
'Cause no one has told me I should stay
Is that ok?
(chorus)
Don't run away
You can pack your bags
Buy your ticket
Take your train
You don't have to wait a day
Don't run away
The rain will soon come down
One day wash away this town
You can leave, but don't run away
|

15. |

(v1)
She's only a princess
In the eyes of the world
But she's my queen
She's a night at the circus
Lemon ice cream swirl
Cause she's so sweet
Like a field of roses
Like a melody
Sung by an angel choir
I had always imagined
It was just my mind
But she's no dream
(chorus)
Bound as one we will stay
Close beside or far away
No one's ever gonna say
You and I are just a game
(v2)
Never wanders without me
Never drops his guard
And that’s all right
Says he can't live without me
Says I'm in his heart
But he's my life
Like a reverent soldier
Like a guardian
Who's always looking out
Never thought I would find him
Or that he'd find me
But how he's mine
(repeat chorus x2)
|

16. |

(v1)
How slowly those years passed
Now I'm finally here at last
Oh heaven knows I missed you
I spent so many nights
Wondering how I'd make things right
Oh can you please forgive me
(pre-chorus)
I never knew how bad it'd hurt to be alone
It took a thousand years but now I'm finally coming home, Oh
(chorus)
After all we've been through
Fate has brought me back to you
We'll be stronger than we've ever been before
And though darkness may creep in
It won't take over again
'Cause I'll be with you forever more
(v2)
I can't believe it's true
That I've made it back to you
Oh I was lost without you
So happy by your side
We're better unified
No other way I'd want to
(repeat pre-chorus)
(repeat chorus)
(bridge)
I'm sorry that I hurt you
So sorry
That I left you alone
But now I want you to be sure
That as we open this new door
I will be there by your side
Forever more
(repeat chorus) x2

Data (feat. Jyc Row)
05:32
|
|||
(v1)
Inside, my system
No signs, of miscommunication
Perhaps, an overridden code
A strange sensation
(chorus)
Speak how you will
Nothing to lose
All of your words will be processed through
Go where you please
Say what you want
For I cannot feel a thing, or so I thought
Ahhhhh (x a billion)
(v2)
Scans read, no damageAnd yet, I'm somehow torn apart
Those words, are nothing more than data
Nothing more than data
(repeat chorus)
(bridge)
Don't cast me out
Don't shut me down
I promise I'd be sorry
If I could do more than count
Wires only understand
The coding of its command
But somehow can tell
That you still love me how I am
(repeat chorus)

September Blue, Thy sorrows be forgotten
October Auburn, Let this season pass
November Gray, Restore with thy rain
December White, Thy beauty ever last
(v1)
Light of virtue shown
Sign of one's true form
To grow only small
Giving guidance for all
Seen while hardly known
(repeat chorus)
September Blue, Thy sorrows be forgotten
October Auburn, Let this season pass
November Gray, Restore with thy rain
December White, Thy beauty ever last
(v2)
Bright inviting morn
Brilliant rays reborn
So follow along
As the shadows have gone
Walk where time has torn
(repeat chorus)
September Blue, Thy sorrows be forgotten
October Auburn, Let this season pass
November Gray, Restore with thy rain
December White, Thy beauty ever last
Ahhhh, ahhhh, ahhhh...
December White, Thy beauty ever last
