So long, it’s gone apart at the seams Sink in the glow of brighter screens Plugging into the houseplant leaves Out your front door for bigger things Glass, tilted glass, pulls us close Our first step into a larger world The background’s gone, we fade to black We’re just humans on a painted set Follow along the faded the lines Moving in place through space in time There’s nothing quite like feeling dead Paint the doors and ceiling red

Tonight is the night that I once told you Tonight is the night that I will hold you Tonight is the night that will wash over us Because tonight, you’re here in my arms Tonight is the night that I will love you Tonight is the night that I will tell you Tonight is the night that’s been unfolding for so long But tonight, I’m here in your arms Tonight is the night that I’ve been waiting for Tonight is the night that we've been praying for Tonight is the night that you’ve been pacing the floor And tonight I wanna make it alive Tonight is the night if the weather permits Tonight is the night when the clock strikes ten Tonight is the night to forever change our lives But tonight I could die with a smile

Every day it's a game I've been thinking of another way to tell you how I feel It's not that the sun is coming up for us It just feels like it may Another day and things have changed I'm still thinking of another way but maybe it's just me Is the sun starting to go down on us? I really need you to stay Is it turning out, turning out the same for us? Ashes, dust to dust Is it turning out, turning out the same for us? Ashes, dust to dust Who knows now? Another day and things have changed Has everything we had gone down the drain? I thought we had it made Is the sun starting to go out on us? It really feels like it may Is it turning out, turning out the same for us? Ashes, dust to dust Is it turning out, turning out the same for us? Ashes, dust to dust Who knows now?

Be careful what you wish for You might get what you deserve I look like an ordinary person Just chewing the scenery I'm a momentary diversion Caught in the machinery I guess I feel alright I guess I feel alright I'm walking in broad daylight Without an inch of skin showing Covered up like Marlon Brando In ‘The Island of Dr. Moreau’ Slathered in zinc oxide And white as a beach party ghost I guess I feel alright I guess I feel alright

I’m a world away The film is all scratched and worn I suck the life out of a crowded room You belong in the new dissolve You revolve in the new dissolve You resolve in the new dissolve You belong in the new dissolve The lights melt the sound The notes drip down the wall I turn the lights down low A candle’s flame You belong in the new dissolve You revolve in the new dissolve You resolve in the new dissolve You belong in the new dissolve

Don't Fret 04:13
If I’d have stayed Between a rock and a hard place I’d have never found This look upon your face If I would have got Caught up in the chase I’d have never known Things could be this way If I’d known You need me God only knows If you’d be near me Don’t fret Don’t fret If I’m afraid Of the locket of your face I can’t look now At the weight that hangs If I would have got Caught up in the chase I’d have never known Things could be this way If I’d known You need me God only knows If you’d be near me Don’t fret Don’t fret

Give me a sign And let me know Give me a sign To let me go I was on the dark side of your dreams Trying to find a light to get back home I know why you don't really know me I’m giving up the ghost to head back home Give me a sign If I’m on the right path Give me a sign And I’ll do the math I was on the dark side of your dreams Trying to find a light to get back home I know why you don't really know me I’m giving up the ghost to head back home I was on the seams of reality Trying to find a light to get back home I know why you don't really know me I’m giving up the ghost to head back home

Thinking in circles I’m stuck in my head Lab rat in a maze I’m stuck in my head You know I want out You know I need out I’m stuck in my head The only way out Is a long way down I’m stuck in my head I’ll be here til (when?) Against my will (then) I’m stuck in my head Flickering flame A tiny spark I’m stuck in my head Telephone ringtone Is stuck in my head TV commercial Is stuck in my head I think I have it I think I’ve got it It’s stuck in my head I think I want it I think I need it It’s stuck in my head Click to buy more Wait by the door It’s stuck in my head Improve my life With every size It’s stuck in my head I think I love you I’m dreaming of you You’re stuck in my head A sight for sore eyes Make me feel alright You’re stuck in my head Be by your side (when) Every night (then) You’re stuck in my head Flickering flame A tiny spark You’re stuck in my head Stuck in my head Stuck in my head Stuck in my head Stuck in my head

Spring is here again Turnaround it's new I feel it in the air All that's missing is you I changed the clocks And you weren't there We lost time It's all blue skies But not my eyes Not this time Remember one year ago? It seems those feelings are gone It's getting hard to hold you When you're not holding on In like the lamb you were Out as the lion you came It's getting hard to hold you When you don't feel the same Set back the clocks Turn back time To the photographs Hard to believe That those still frames Were real life Is this all that I am saying? I can't stand because I’m swaying I can't say if it's worth saving Until Spring is here again Is this worth the price I’m paying Find another road worth paving I can't say if this is failing Until spring is here again Cut me out of all your photographs Like there’s a hole in your heart Try as you might you can't ignore the past There’s still a hole in your heart We've come too far

In My Arms 03:23
Through winters cold and summers long You told me you'd always be in my arms The time always comes to say goodbye When things went wrong we made them right But now that it's over and I must reflect Every season changes You told me you would be here in my arms You told me you would be here in my arms The time always comes to say goodbye When things went wrong we made them right But now that it's over and I must reflect Every season changes You told me you would be here in my arms You told me you would be here in my arms
