LYRICS
I’ve such a way with words
This honesty may feel like lying
And this love may be trivial
But if not for love then what are we dying for
And in seconds as these letters turn to words
I feel slipping through my fingers
Every lesson that I’ve ever learned
I see nothing in everything like the colour of her eyes
But I don’t even know her name
You see, I’m just reading my lines
Please don’t wait for me
I found heaven in letting go of every answer that I had
And there’s nothing more romantic
Than the bottom of this glass
Please, oh my god
I couldn’t swallow a word that you said
Please, oh my god
I saw you coming from a mile away
Please, oh my god
We can marvel at the mess that we have made
Please, oh my god
I saw you coming from a mile away
Logic is paper thin but I
Can’t help but let you in as we play this game
Lovers will never win but we
Keep sinking hope in sin
I won’t play this game
Break my heart
Or leave me be

I Can Play The Outlaw
03:06

We wait in line
For just a glimpse of what the royalty will show
We paint ourselves in colours darker than we ever thought we could
And now I know
Perhaps the images are skewed
We purchase paper planes in hopes we’ll fly
We just ignore the truth
And with a single breath, I wait for your reaction
But all I seem to find is distance
Still with your sycophants, I long for your attention
But I don’t care
I don’t care
I don’t care anymore
Listen in, you’re nobody till somebody hates you
So give me hatred
We’re blocking out the sun
We long for heroine love
But I never said I’d wait forever
So water down
The formula till nothing feels the same
But in the end I know I only have myself to blame
I’m not a wanted man
But I can play the outlaw
Coz I don’t care
I don’t care anymore
Listen in, you’re nobody till somebody hates you
So give me hatred
We’re blocking out the sun
We long for heroine love
But I never said I’d wait forever
I know it feels impossible
But I know you
I know you
I know you feel invisible
But I see you
I see you

And while I know that everything has to change
I hope you can see that what we have now
Is nothing more than a watered down version of something real
We all spend of our waking lives avoiding a reality
That, in the end, we know we truly desire.
And all I keep coming back to
Is the fact that we’ve traded our courage for a keyboard.
We’re so incredibly disconnected from one another
We’ve forgotten what romance really is.
Coz we’re just so fucking scared
And the open air we breathe in
Is getting thinner as we’re all
Waiting waiting waiting
For one second but the second never came
Those days are dead
And with open eyes, she said
We can’t go back
Those days are dead and we’re all fighting for the exit.
Still we go round
This empty world we live in
Before inevitably we go
Down down down
In the ground
And we never saw it coming
Lately I’ve been wishing
Someone would stop this song
But you play and play inside my head so simple
Wake up
You can’t replace this
Lost love with chemicals
So sing me something
Something that could
Lessen what we know.
And once again we’re lonely
We’re begging for connection
As we feign this interest
And I wanna scream this in your face
I laid my body on this beach
I wanna see you now but you’re gone
You’re gone
Wake up
You can’t replace this
lost love with chemicals
So sing me something
Something that could lessen
What we know.
Waiting waiting waiting
For one second
Waiting waiting waiting
For one more.
Waiting waiting waiting
For one second
Waiting waiting waiting
For one more.
Every action has a cost

YOU’VE MADE YOURSELF PERFECTLY CLEAR
We move mountains
In hopes to find pieces of honesty
But distance will only deepen this disconnect
We’ve broken our only language
Coz we’re both sleeping in this silence
Drowning in the words we left unsaid for so long
And if patience is my virtue
Then we’re both dead and gone
We place filters
On every word we’re saying
It’s never ending
But distance will only deepen this disconnect
We’ve broken our only language
Coz we’re both sleeping in this silence
Drowning in the words we left unsaid for so long
And if patience is my virtue
Then we’re both dead and gone
Coz we don’t say a thing
We don’t say a thing
They say that everything that happens will happen in time
And this fate counts for nothing we’re just reading our lines
When the romance is ending
When the gentlemen lie
We’ve abandoned our hope year we
We let it die
You said that truth counts for nothing but still I will try
And if distance is wanted then distance is fine
When the romance is ending
When the gentleman lie
We let it die

The words will disappear
And the page returns to white
I’m wasting my time
And every time I find a new scar I realize
I’m holding the knife
Remember when we were fifteen
We saw so clearly
The skin wasn’t peeling from our limbs
Now here we are
It’s down to you and I
It’s always you and I
On this sinking ship
The words will disappear
And the page returns to white
I’m wasting my time
You see the distance
You said you wanted to be focused
But everything you see is anything but
The pen falls, I’m giving up
This isn’t promising
But this is a promise
Oh poison
I need an antidote
Some kind of medicine
I won’t make it through the night
Where were you
When I needed you
This is everything
And it’s all going down again
When all you need is here
And the days are laced in spite
You’re wasting your time
You said you’re waiting for a moment
But every day is left in waiting
This is everything
You know that much
Now dig into your ribs
This isn’t promising
But this is a promise
But I’m the anchor
I’m the one who holds me down
Remember when we were fifteen
We saw so clearly
The skin wasn’t peeling from our
Remember when we were fifteen
We saw so clearly
The skin wasn’t peeling from our
Remember when we were fifteen
We saw so
