Do I stay
Or should I go
I don't want to lose you, I don't want to lose you.
Should I change
Change who I am
I don't want to have to, I don't want to have to.
I shouldn't have to feel this way, feel this way
Like a ghost I'm empty and have gone astray
Can you say no
I don't want you to go
Take my hand and come with me
To another place where you can see
That you, you're not alone
Believe in me
Do I fight
Fight back the fear
I don't want to lose you, I don't want to lose you
Should I hide?
Hide from your words?
I don't want to have to, I don't want to have to
I shouldn't have to feel this way, feel this way
Like a ghost I'm empty and have gone astray
Can you say no
I don't want you to go
Take my hand and come with me
To another place where you can see
That you, you're not alone
Believe in me
I'm trying, but I'm dying inside
I'm trying, but I'm dying inside
I'm trying, but I'm dying inside
I can't go on
I shouldn't have to feel this way, feel this way
Like a ghost I'm empty and have gone astray
I shouldn't have to feel this way, feel this way
Like a ghost I'm empty and have gone astray
Can you say no
I don't want you to go
Take my hand and come with me
To another place where you can see
That you, you're not alone
Believe in me

Clichés - Demo

So sorry heart,
I said I wouldn't
fall for you
I took your hand,
The start of something new
You woke me up
Reached out to save
My aching soul
Butterflies, form inside
Means our feelings still bind
Everything I do, I do it for you
You had me at hello, I couldn't say no
In your arms I feel we can conquer the town
These cliches are words to say I love you
So sorry heart,
I said I wouldn't
fall for you
Our heart to hearts
We're hand in hand
Can't break us
A love so strong
Removes the hurt
Inside of you

Would You
03:18
|

Well You,
You're out there
I'm thinking about you and waiting
Denying, my heart
Head can't understand I just can't have you
Would you save me if I drown
Would you hold me if I cry
Would you pick me up if I fall
Would you tell me I am more than what I am
Would you save me, would you hold me, would you love me
Would you pick me, Would you tell me, would you love me
We share,
So many laughs, and memories to reminisce on
Maybe you'll miss me someday
Have no fear, I promise I won't be gone
You're all I think about, you're running through my mind
I'll do anything I can, just to be in your arms

Hide and Seek - Demo
03:04

When everything in your world is upside down
When all you think you knew is finally wrong
When your mind stays in bed, sleeping sound
This is when you think you're not where you belong
When everyone stares at you like through a window
When you feel like breathing through glass-made lungs
When distorting mirrors wouldn't cause more sorrow
This is when you think you're not where you belong
And when you're searching where you're supposed to be
Just look around yourself and find your real friends
The ones who are saying you can trust me
The ones you know will be there 'till the end
This is where you belong
When all you want to do is get back to a day
When the sky was blue; your life, young
When you wonder why the time is flying this way
This is when you know you're not where you belong
And when you're searching where you're supposed to be
Just look around yourself and find your real friends
The ones who are saying you can trust me
The ones you know will be there 'till the end
This is where you belong

I won't mistake you for problems with me
I won't let my moods ruin this you'll see
I won't take everything good and move it away
I won't be left dancing along to songs from the past
Would you stay home and keep our memories warm with me
Would you give all your love for a run at the past with me
I know you're sad even though you say that you're not
I know you're scared even though you say that you're not
I won't get mad when you say things are getting too hard
I won't make all of your love so scared to come through our yard
I won't scream in my head and let it isolate me
I won't be left dancing alone to songs from the past

Oh and I'm feeling
Directionless yes
But that's to be expected
And I know that best
And in creeps the morning
And another day's lost
You've just written wondering
And I reply fast
All you need to save me
All you need to save me
Call (call)
And I'll be curled on the floor
Hiding out from it all
And I won't take any other call
I feel like a fool
So I'm going to stop troubling you
Buried in my yard
A letter to send to you
And if I forget
Or god forbid die too soon
Hope that you'll hear me
Know that I wrote to you
All you need to say to me
All you need to say to me
Is call (call)
And I'll be curled on the floor
Hiding out from it all
And I won't take any other call

If they take my hand,
Will it be to burn me or to say ‘amen’?
We beckon so we can make amends,
And with the same flip of the hand we curse our friends.
Where it’s all a blur, you are the hard line.
In the disorder, you are the peace sign.
J’ai tant voulu savoir,
Si mes peurs ont tout fait pour m’égarer.
Mais quand la vérité se cache,
Je te suivrai où que tu veuilles aller.
Quand la guerre éclate, tu es le silence.
Et dans tout ce désordre, you are the peace sign.
I can’t tell if they’re laughing at me or with me.
All these hints and subtleties,
got me on my knees, begging for serenity.
And when it’s all a blur, you are the hard line.
In the disorder, you are the peace sign.
And when riots stir, tu es le silence.
And in the disorder, you are the peace sign.
Quand la guerre éclate, you are the sound mind.
Et dans tout ce désordre, you are the peace sign.
And in the disorder, you are the peace sign.
In the disorder, you are the peace sign.

I am going away for a while
But I'll be back don't try and follow me
Cause I'll return as soon as possible
See I'm tryin' to find my place
But it might not be here where I feel safe
We all learn to make mistakes,
And run from them
From them
With no direction
We'll run from them
From them
With no conviction
Cause I'm just one of those ghosts
Traveling endlessly
Don't need no roads
In fact they follow me
And we just go in circles
Now I'm told that this is life
Pain is just a simple compromise
So we can we get what we want out of it
Will someone care to classify
A broken heart and twisted minds
So I can find, someone to rely on,
And run to them
to them
Full speed ahead
Oh you are not
Useless
We are just
Misguided ghosts
Traveling endlessly
The ones we trusted the most
Pushed us far away
And there's no one road
We should not be the same
I'm just a ghost
And still they echo me
They echo me in circles.

Climbed up on the rainbow
Just to see if I'd fall off
I'm a frosted lemon coward
And I don't know how
No don't know to hold you
Without shaking
No I'm not aware of how
I could possibly love you
Without aching
Yes I give you everything
Yes I give you anything
I gave you everything
Gotta watch myself
I've gotta love myself
And take care
And so keep the light on before
Ya hop into bed
Cos, baby, this is the last
Honest look I'll ever give
I saved up all my sunshine
Just to see you more clear
I'm a little short on solar
And I haven't given in
No I'm going to hold you anyway
And I'll do it without shaking
Yes I'll love you always
And I'll do it without aching
Yes I'd give you anything
Yes I'd give you anything
I gave you everything
Gotta watch myself
I've gotta love myself
And take care
And so keep the light on before
Ya hop into bed
Cos, baby, this is the last
Honest look I'll ever give
I give you everything
I give you anything
I gave you everything
Gotta watch my self
I've gotta love myself
And take care
Yeah
Gave you
I gave you
I gave you everything
So I've gotta watch myself
And love myself
And take care
This is your last look
This is your last look
This is your last look
Yeah this is your last look
This is your last look
This is your last look
And so keep the light on before
Ya hop into bed
Cos, baby, this is the last
Honest look I'll ever give

No words
My tears won't make any room for 'em, oh
And it don't hurt
Like anything I've ever felt before
This is no broken heart
No familiar scars
This territory goes uncharted
Just me
In a room sunk down in a house in a town
And I don't breathe
Though I never meant to let it get away from me
Now I have too much to hold
Everybody has to get their hands on gold
And I want uncharted
Stuck under the ceiling
I made, I can't help the feeling I'm going down
Follow if you want, I won't just hang around
Like you'll show me where to go
I'm already out
Of foolproof ideas so don't ask me how
To get started
It's all uncharted
Each day
I'm countin' up the minutes 'til I get alone
'Cause I can't stay
In the middle of it all, it's nobody's fault
But I'm so low
Never knew so much I didn't know
Oh, everything is uncharted
I know I'm getting nowhere
When I only sit and stare like I'm going down
Follow if you want, I won't just hang around
Like you'll show me where to go
I'm already out
Of foolproof ideas so don't ask me how
To get started
It's all uncharted
Jump start my kaleidoscope heart
I love to watch the colors fade
They may not make sense
But they sure as hell made me
I won't go as a passenger, no
Waiting for the road to be laid
Though I may be going down
I'll take in flame over burning out
Compare
Where you are to where you wanna be
And you'll get nowhere
I'm going down
Follow if you want, I won't just hang around
Like you'll show me where to go
I'm already out
Of foolproof ideas so don't ask me how
To get started
I'm going down
Follow if you want, I won't just hang around
Like you'll show me where to go
I'm already out
Of foolproof ideas so don't ask me how
To get started
It's all uncharted

I gotta say something I've been thinking about.
I can't wait to lay around with you.
And tell you all the secrets I've been keeping to myself.
It's been awhile since I've felt butterflies.
Do you feel the same way too?
If every single second could last that much longer.
Would you hold me?
And kiss me again underneath the moonlight.
You're more than a friend, oh.
I knew it from the first sight, yeah.
Hold me, feel my heart beat.
Put your arms around me.
And kiss me again.
And kiss me again.
I gotta say I wasn't expecting you
To come this way and fall into my arms.
And now I know I can't deny this feeling any longer.
I close my eyes, I can't stop thinking about you.
Crack a smile, I just can't lose.
At a mile a minute my heart beats to the limit when I'm with you.
So, kiss me again underneath the moonlight.
You're more than a friend, oh.
I knew it from the first sight, yeah.
Hold me, feel my heart beat.
Put your arms around me.
And kiss me again.
I can't let you go, can't let you float away.
'Cause that would be a mistake.
I'm not ready to run, can't let you go to waste.
No, no, no, no.
And kiss me again underneath the moonlight.
You're more than a friend, oh.
I knew it from the first sight, yeah.
Hold me, feel my heart beat.
Put your arms around me.
Hold me, feel my heart beat.
And put your arms around.
And kiss me again, and again, and again.
Oh, kiss me again.

No one laughs at God in a hospital
No one laughs at God in a war
No one's laughing at God when they're starving or freezing or so very poor
No one laughs at God when the doctor calls after some routine tests
No one's laughing at God when it's gotten real late
And their kid's not back from that party yet
No one laughs at God when their airplane starts to uncontrollably shake
No one's laughing at God when they see the one they love
Hand in hand with someone else and they hope that they're mistaken
No one laughs at God when the cops knock on their door
And they say we've got some bad news, sir
No one's laughing at God when there's a famine, fire or flood
But God can be funny
At a cocktail party when listening to a good God-themed joke
Or when the crazies say He hates us
And they get so red in the head you think they're 'bout to choke
God can be funny
When told he'll give you money if you just pray the right way
And when presented like a genie who does magic like Houdini
Or grants wishes like Jiminy Cricket and Santa Claus
God can be so hilarious
Ha ha
Ha ha
No one laughs at God in a hospital
No one laughs at God in a war
No one's laughing at God when they've lost all they've got
And they don't know what for
No one laughs at God on the day they realize that the last sight they'll ever see
Is a pair of hateful eyes
No one's laughing at God when they're saying their goodbyes
But God can be funny
At a cocktail party when listening to a good God-themed joke
Or when the crazies say He hates us
And they get so red in the head you think they're 'bout to choke
God can be funny
When told he'll give you money if you just pray the right way
And when presented like a genie who does magic like Houdini
Or grants wishes like Jiminy Cricket and Santa Claus
God can be so hilarious
No one laughs at God in a hospital
No one laughs at God in a war
No one laughs at God in a hospital
No one laughs at God in a war
No one laughing at God in a hospital
No one's laughing at God in a war
No one's laughing at God when they're starving or freezing or so very poor
No one's laughing at God
No one's laughing at God
No one's laughing at God
We're all laughing with God

Sensitive, it's true
Alligator tears cried over you
Over you, over you
Over you, over you
Run around on me
Soon to die without
Run around on me

Run around on me

Run around on me
Die without
Rattled yes, it's true
Alligator tears spilled over you
Run around on me

Over you, over you

Lately, I've been, I've been losing sleep
Dreaming about the things that we could be
But baby, I've been, I've been praying hard,
Said, no more counting dollars
We'll be counting stars, yeah we'll be counting stars
I see this life like a swinging vine
Swing my heart across the line
And my face is flashing signs
Seek it out and you shall find
Old, but I'm not that old
Young, but I'm not that bold
I don't think the world is sold
I'm just doing what we're told
I feel something so right
Doing the wrong thing
I feel something so wrong
Doing the right thing
I could lie, coudn't I, could lie
Everything that kills me makes me feel alive
Lately, I've been, I've been losing sleep
Dreaming about the things that we could be
But baby, I've been, I've been praying hard,
Said, no more counting dollars
We'll be counting stars
Lately, I've been, I've been losing sleep
Dreaming about the things that we could be
But baby, I've been, I've been praying hard,
Said, no more counting dollars
We'll be, we'll be counting stars
I feel the love and I feel it burn
Down this river, every turn
Hope is a four-letter word
Make that money, watch it burn
Oh, but I'm not that old
Young, but I'm not that bold
I don't think the world is sold
I'm just doing what we're told
I feel something so wrong
Doing the right thing
I could lie, could lie, could lie
Everything that drowns me makes me wanna fly
Lately, I've been, I've been losing sleep
Dreaming about the things that we could be
But baby, I've been, I've been playing hard,
Sitting, no more counting dollars
We'll be counting stars
Lately, I've been, I've been losing sleep
Dreaming about the things that we could be
But baby, I've been, I've been playing hard,
Sitting, no more counting dollars
We'll be, we'll be counting stars
Take that money
Watch it burn
Sing in the river
The lessons are learnt
Take that money
Watch it burn
Sing in the river
The lessons are learnt
Take that money
Watch it burn
Sing in the river
The lessons are learnt
Take that money
Watch it burn
Sing in the river
The lessons are learnt
Everything that kills me makes feel alive
Lately, I've been, I've been losing sleep
Dreaming about the things that we could be
But baby, I've been, I've been playing hard,
Sitting, no more counting dollars
We'll be counting stars
Lately, I've been, I've been losing sleep
Dreaming about the things that we could be
But baby, I've been, I've been playing hard,

Feel it falling off like clothing
Taste it rolling on your tongue
See the lights above you glowing
Oh and breathe them deep into your lungs
It was always simple, not hidden hard
You've been pulling at the strings playing puppeteer for kings
And you've had enough
But the search ends here
Where the night is totally clear
And your heart is fierce
So now you finally know that you control where you go
You can steer
So hold this feeling like a newborn
Of freedom surging through your veins
You have opened up a new door
So bring on the wind, fire and rain
It was always simple, not hidden hard
You've been played at a game called remembering your name
And you stuffed it up
But the search ends here
Where the night is totally clear
And your heart is fierce
So now you finally know that you control where you go
You can steer
'Cos you've been listening for answers
But the city screams and all your dreams go unheard
But the search ends here
Where the night is totally clear
And your heart is fierce
So now you finally know that you control where you go
You can steer
Year get out of the box and step into the clear
'Cos now you finally know you can steer
