You're in the back of my head And I think I heard you Like it was yesterday And I still remember the words you said Because of you I see the world in ways that I would never do All because of you Everything's changed And we know We'll never be the same I'll take it for what it's worth Times like these are just too short Cause its all or nothing All or nothing with us Our worth is just clever words Unless we take the action to make it work Cause its all or nothing All or nothing with us

I thought you wanted me Thought you'd commit but I should have seen You stop rewind and play your emotions Stood in the pouring rain On my own but you never came Sick of your stupid games Just take your hold off me The next time you call me up and beg for me To come and see you I'll be a little bit smarter than you wanted Now I'm running on empty When you tell me you needed me Said you wanted to be free Then tell me everything we could have been You can't make your mind up Don't know what you want You're messing with my head Again Like I mean nothing Make me think I'm wrong For standing up for myself Look in a mirror No time to stop and be still Let go of me for real Its not enough even though you asked for me to stay I just cant wait You came a little bit later than I needed I'll settle down some how Cause I need it now I don't want to wait But I don't want this to go to waste

Venice 03:34
I keep thinking back to the cold on my feet
 How we crowded the streets
 And just laughed about how they'd stop and stare

 And I know it's not like me at all 
To sing loud as the rain falls
 Down on my face thinking there's no place like here
 To make the best of the atmosphere
 
I picked out a postcard
 But it got caught in the rain
 So I left it on the dashboard 
And watched it dry there for days

 We headed east through the sundown
 And left Venice in the rain
 With a new perspective on life how we
 Don't need the weather to change 

It's not like me
 To sing out
 As it falls

 Won't you take me back

5 years ago, we jumped feet first in the deep end Without a plan we drove until our arms got tired of steering I held on to you as we flew over to England left house and home and now this place seems so familiar So familiar I was told we've got a right to take this There must be something in the water My minds filled up with hope But my life contradicts what I was told No longer hold onto my possessions No space to call my own that's the price we paid for freedom Lie here and float as our dreams sink in the ocean I've been around the world now the sites seem so familiar So familiar It's all coming together now While my dreams repeat with me sinking in the deep end It's all coming together now Cause my conscience thinks I'm afraid of this and All I have is my honest mistakes As I hold on and I recount my faith to sing

Start Again 04:20
I'm trying to find my own space
 While avoiding this place on the ground
 My pride is receding at pace
 But I'm fucked if I let it go now All these differences, between me and them Should have known all along, Needed distance when, you were in my head Telling me that I'm wrong, now I'm gone But I've still got time, to start planting what I'll grow. 
I can't complain I do it to myself 
I'm not the same as you used to know I'll change my name just so I can start again
I'll start again just wait Screaming, nowhere to go, nothing to show, I'm a ghost, brighten both of my eyes cause diamonds don't cut on their own All these differences, between me and them Should have known all along, Needed distance when, you were in my head Telling me that I'm wrong, now I'm gone 

(Take me for a fool with)

Take me for a fool with everything you know, everything.
Caught up in your world, guess I should have known 

I've been walking for days and its hard to see this half full when I'm thirsty I dream of the rain that it will wash me away, so I can rest my feet. I'm sick and tired of being, (of being) sick

I know it's not that easy When you lose track of where you've been I took it day in and day out It's the kind of life I live It was wearing at my soul And I won't try to justify Anything at all All of my friends who hang this over my head I'm coming back from the dead Its not over, not over All of my friends who understand where I've been There's not more wearing me thin It's not over, not over Blame me like you should But one day we'll go brag without you It's taken a life time To get all of this right I checked all my blind sides Now I'm heading through Who said it was easy To put back all these pieces When I've been gone for way too long
7.
Forget your problems I hope you solve them Cause friends like these don't come around often enough We're all prone to fucking up Don't make me call your bluff Cause I won't resign my intuition That is always listening Listening Is it obvious There's a monster in all of us Hoping you don't fall in love and get your head stuck Try to take you for your word And trust in everything you've heard But you barely make sense Start thinking of what you've got Cause you could have everything that you want But you go and burn that bridge Don't care what you did Leave your mistakes back home With all your ghosts Footsteps behind us They track our progress Give us a reason to keep on moving on I keep on moving on It gets me through my inhibitions That effects the state I'm in State I'm in In the audience There's a wonder in all of us Hoping you could be the one to change all our luck Don't take this the wrong way We're one in the same we all have those days If you're ready for change we'll know this August We're one in the same so let's be honest It's a little cliché how much we want this But we're one in the same

42 Days 03:18
I've been waiting just waiting for you to call me back Call me impatient Call me anything at all I'm just laying in my bed wishing it was yours Can't seem to shake this I can't take it any more I'm trying hard to think Without your hands all over me Is it any wonder why we're in love Is it any wonder why I'm so lost Without you here I've been wasting away 42 days since I saw your face I need you near To me Cause without you I just can't breath We've been staying up late every night to get the most Out of these time zones And the distance we have flown I've been making my bed up for two Your side is empty and I can't sleep I guess I never knew How hard it is to think Without your hands all over me Is it any wonder we're in love Is it any wonder why I'm so lost

Wrote her a letter and you post it Told her baby don't get upset It's just a little bit of distance
You were home before she noticed Waking up to your play-list Your favourite songs at our finger tips The drive to work every day was bliss You saved me from every bus I'd miss How I needed it I see you there like it's reality And I don't care Living in this fantasy of what we share Everyday the memories go on and on and on I shaved your head in the bathroom sink If you asked I'd do anything You always managed to make us drink We'd ride the bus til we fell asleep Now that's what we need. Don't know Don't know what you've got til it's gone It took so long, took so long just to write you this song I can hear your piano playing along, along, along, along We think about it If you asked I'd do anything We think about it And ride the bus til we fell asleep We think about it
