Paper Thoughts

Woah
Sometimes our minds can feel like bulls in a China shop
Realign your spine before your body drops
Sometimes we shine through all of the tree tops
Breaking through the snow we so desperately fought
So before you must go
Let's swim through the river sticks
And let it flow
'Cause paper thoughts tear easily
So hide mine to stop me
'Cause paper hearts tear easily
So hold mine to save me
We may say that the sky is full of grey
But our eyes just hide behind a veil of shame
Hope can only grow once Pandora opens the chest
I'll open mine and you'll take care of the rest
So
So before you must go
Let's swim through the river sticks
And let it flow
'Cause paper thoughts tear easily
So hide mine to stop me
'Cause paper hearts tear easily
So hold mine to save me
I won't hide myself until you're gone, you're gone
My poker face is so much better than my real one, real one
I won't hide myself until you're gone, you're gone
My poker face is so much better than my real one, real one
Woah
Yeah

If love is relative then baby you're my prism
Of light
Vines for fingers my eyes linger
Come on inside
Woah, got me singing like
Woah, yeah
Your lips taste
Like Raspberry Lemonade
Come on and listen to my cliché serenade
Your lips taste
Like Raspberry Lemonade
Oh, woah
Never fade away
Oh, woah
Never fade away
Apologies for my hair turning grey
You free me from this chain of vain
You erase the book in my brain
But I don't mind
Yeah I don't mind
It makes me laugh how you go insane
Whenever you go on every airplane
I hope you don't mind
I hope you don't mind
Woah, got me singing like
Woah, yeah
2, 3, 4
Your lips taste
Like Raspberry Lemonade
Come on and listen to my cliché serenade
Your lips taste
Like Raspberry Lemonade
Oh, woah
Never fade away
Oh, woah
Never fade away
Apologies for my hair turning grey
The lake of ice is thin don't fall
Don't you know that readiness is all
[x4]
Your lips taste
Like Raspberry Lemonade
Come on and listen to my cliché serenade
Your lips taste
Like Raspberry Lemonade
Oh, woah
Never fade away
Your lips taste
Like Raspberry Lemonade
Come on and listen to my cliché serenade
Your lips taste
Like Raspberry Lemonade
Oh, woah
Never fade away
Oh, woah
Never fade away
Oh, woah
Never fade away
Apologies for my hair turning grey

Strike

Darlin' I know you're hollow
But oh, what's that you hear
My dear
Green light in the flesh
Insincere I confess
But their words can undress
La da da da da
It's simple for your love
La da da da da
Strike me down from above
(Oohs)
La da da da da
Oh but there I go again
With the marionette of synthetic intent
A voice to fit the mould
But gimme gimme gimme something to hold
No
Gimme gimme something 'round my throat
But oh no
Please save my soul
La da da da da
It's simple for your love
La da da da da
Strike me down from above
(Oohs)
La da da da da
Stuck in the Heap
Uriah they seek
Spirals they see oh
Caught in the glow
Stuck in the Heap
Uriah they seek
Spirals they see oh
Caught in the glow
La da da da da
It's simple for your love
La da da da da
Strike me down from above
La da da da da
It's simple for your love
La da da da da
Strike me down from above
La da da da da
It's simple for your love
La da da da da
Strike me down, strike me down
La da da da da

Abstract Art
03:19
|

|
Virus in our heads we follow you instead
Oh my, but now oh
What makes us whole
When life in the stars is near and so far
Oh why do we all fear fall
But if I gave you my heart
Before the moon fell apart
Is false sincerity really what you want
With minds like Abstract Art
Oh, is false sincerity really what you want
Oh what you want
Why can't we just unroll the empty scroll
Instead of feeding the no face with the face of an overhyped waterbowl
It's all the same in the end
We're just caught up in our twisted perspective
But if I gave you my heart
Before the moon fell apart
Is false sincerity really what you want
With minds like Abstract Art
Oh, is false sincerity really what you want
Oh what you want
I'm not saying that it's all wrong
I'm just a kid singing a song
We think we're right causing this grief
But don't you know that's humanity
We're stained glass windows
Pretty but flawed
And I know there's a God above
But maybe we don't believe in us anymore
Anymore, oh
Anymore, oh
Anymore, oh
But if I gave you my heart
Before the moon fell apart
Is false sincerity really what you want
With minds like Abstract Art
Oh, is false sincerity really what you want
Oh what you want
Is false sincerity really what you want
Oh what you want

Glass Hands
05:17
|

|
These old clothes,
Feel looser than they should
I guess the outside's finally caught up
I hope they'll find
What other's never could
'Cause draining my soul was never enough
Who are you?
Who are you?
To assume, cars might crash to save you
Oh, but who are you?
Who are you?
To assume, cars might crash to save you
So, glimpse inside
With the wolf nearby
Glass Hands of mine
Will hold us through the pain
There's no bullet we can't sustain
You may bleach my brain
Glass Hands of pain
Will pull us from the wake
Won't you pull us from the-
I'm sick of these games
Oh, Gravity stay true
These statues simply weren't built for shame
So, let's stop
Contrasting the sane
But your eyes can see right through
But I was never alone from the start
And you were never alone from the start
Oh, but who are you?
Who are you?
To assume, cars might crash to save you
So, glimpse inside
With the wolf nearby
Glass Hands of mine
Will hold us through the pain
There's no bullet we can't sustain
You may bleach my brain
Glass Hands of pain
Will pull us from the wake
But I will find my hope
In the currents you will choke
No you don't know it,
No you don't know it
No you don't know it
But I will find my hope
In the currents you will choke
No you don't know it,
No you don't know it
No you don't know it
But I will find my hope
In the currents you will choke
No you don't know it,
No you don't know it
Yeah
No you don't know it
Yeah

Keep Them Warm
02:51
|

Blur the lines of my dreams,
Although I'm awful just to see
Blur the lines in my head
While yours rests against my chest
Sleepwalk through the crowd
The labyrinth far too loud
For me for you
Green light from the clouds
But oh, I just can't see it now
Just take me back to the start
Blur the line of my dreams
'Cause they're bursting at the seams
Snow angels love so true
Come to life because of you
Oh no
I'm lying on the floor
Searching for the door
Oh to find you
My hands are so cold
But oh, can you help Keep Them Warm
She takes me back to the start
Oh no
Oh
Oh no
Oh no
Oh
Oh no
She takes me back to the start

Sleepwalker
04:24
|

|
Muted faces they run by
In this city of contrast
But they all know
Their Anchor’s still afloat
Yet broken chains in mine
City in sleep, no rest for the weak
Oh
City in sleep, with nothing to reap
Oh
Hunting the fox, chased by the clock
Oh
In this paradox, this paradox
But I will hold this shattered light
And although I’m
A sleepwalker, (ah), a sleepwalker, we can
Walk along together
Through the Grave of Fireflies
And although I’m
A sleepwalker, (ah), a sleepwalker, we can
Walk along together
Static vision crumbles me
And my own two feet are driven in the floor
The sickle at my door
City in sleep, no rest for the weak
Oh
City in sleep, with nothing to reap
Oh
Hunting the fox, chased by the clock
Oh
In this paradox, this paradox
But I will hold this shattered light
And although I’m
A sleepwalker, (ah), a sleepwalker, we can
Walk along together
Through the Grave of Fireflies
And although I’m
A sleepwalker, (ah), a sleepwalker, we can
Walk along together
Glaciers fill my lungs
And spit in my eye
Anything, oh anything
Just to make me cry
Glaciers fill my lungs
And spit in my eye
Anything, oh anything
Just to make me cry
Cry [x5]
But I will hold this shattered light
And although I’m
A sleepwalker, (ah), a sleepwalker, can we
Walk along together

Echoes

Goodbye my heart,
The moon falls apart
Change maybe the folly of man
But I know I'll see you again
Shout into the void
The speakers in our heads
But I'd rather listen to you instead
Goodbye my heart,
The moon falls apart
Change maybe the folly of man
But I know I'll see you again
Echoes from the void
From voices not my own
In this field of snow we're no longer alone
Goodbye my heart,
The moon falls apart
Change maybe the folly of man
But I know I'll see you again
I'll take my chances in this van,
And hope the Gods have dealt a good hand
I'll take my chances in this van,
And hope the Gods have dealt a good hand
Goodbye my heart,
The moon falls apart
Change is the greatest gift of man
And I hope I'll see you again

Roses
04:30

Another day, another face
Washed away, in the rain
Hoping the clouds will speak their name
It will make you grow stronger
It's funny how fear makes the heart grow fonder
Then again you almost lost her
Oh, why can't you see the mortality
You gave to me
But, you grew roses in my lungs
They are beautiful but I can't breathe
You made gold, grow in my eyes
I can't see
Although you stole my heart is seems
Butterflies flew but I can't grieve
You made gold grow in my eyes
I can't see
La da de da da
The hand of Midas reached out and touched my eyes
This is not what I had planned as my feet hit the sand
You were broken glass upon the ground
My ears were pulsing with sound
And you came crashing down
But I could still feel your heart against mine with a strong hard pound
I tried to fix you yes but I became a bloody mess
Throwing my life into the wreak
Trying not to get my feelings checked
Well that's a fact haven't you heard
Throwing a hammer at my glass will break me down
And never ever fix your dire past
Oh, why can't you see the mortality
You gave to me
But, you grew roses in my lungs
They are beautiful but I can't breathe
You made gold, grow in my eyes
I can't see
Although you stole my heart is seems
Butterflies flew but I can't grieve
You made gold grow in my eyes
I can't see
La da de da da
(Ohs)
I can't hold on anymore
I'm gonna lose control
Of my soul
[x4]
Yeah,
But, you grew roses in my lungs
They are beautiful but I can't breathe
You made gold, grow in my eyes
I can't see
Although you stole my heart is seems
Butterflies flew but I can't grieve
You made gold grow in my eyes
I can't see
La da de da da
(Ohs)

Gravity
04:00
|
|||
|
The sea of eyes before us is far too lush,
And my compliments to doubt will make him blush
Brush my cheek
But it's too cold
Can anyone try to feel
The reminisce of my flame
But Eros my dear,
Your bait is my fear
Pull me down into the lake
And take us away
From light's place
Retrospective Gravity
Pulling us to search for it all
To search for it all
I know it's hypocritical in this land
Of the lyrical but know it's in our plan
Yet here you stand
Facing me
Caught between the words that we believe
Picking up the fragments
But oh no
But Eros my dear,
Your bait is my fear
Pull me down into the lake
And take us away
From light's place
Retrospective Gravity
Pulling us to search for it all
To search for it all
An essence that can only be felt,
Thank you for giving me what I can't give myself
An essence that can only be felt,
Thank you for giving me what I can't give myself
(Woahs)

Shade of Blue (Acoustic)
03:46
|

|
So
We're here at the end
Thanks for your time
Our hearts on the mend
Yet here we stand
In fear of the cold
The ink is our friend
Yet still so alone
But oh my love
It's all that I ask of you
And oh my love
It's all that I've ever known to do
When skies need a Shade of Blue
I'm scared
Of what lies ahead
No simple simile
To mask what's in my head
The field of snow
Draws ever so close
But we'll fight for what we love
The most
And oh my love
It's all that I ask of you
And oh my love
It's all that I've ever known to do
When skies need a Shade of Blue
Oh of blue
Blue
Oh my love
It's all that I ask of you
And oh my love
It's all that I've ever known to do
When skies need a Shade of Blue
