Hedley - Perfect
Falling a thousand feet per second, you still take me by surprise
I just know we can’t be over, I can see it in your eyes
Making every kind of silence, takes a lot to realize
It’s worse to finish than to start all over and never let it lie
And as long as I can feel you holding on
I won’t fall, even if you said I was wrong
I’m not perfect, but I keep trying
‘Cause that’s what I said I would do from the start
I’m not alive if I’m lonely, so please don’t leave
Was it something I said or just my personality?
Making every kind of silence, it takes a lot to realize
It’s worse to finish than to start all over and never let it lie
And as long as I can feel you holding on
I won’t fall, even if you said I wrong
I know that I’m not perfect, but I keep trying
‘Cause that’s what I said I would do from the start
I’m not alive if I’m lonely, so please don’t leave
Was it something I said or just my personality?
When you’re caught in a lie and you’ve got nothing to hide
When you’ve got nowhere to run and you’ve got nothing inside
It tears right through me, you thought that you knew me
You thought that you knew
I’m not perfect, but I keep trying
‘Cause that’s what I said I would do from the start
I’m not alive if I’m lonely, so please don’t leave
Was it something I said or just my personality?
I’m not perfect, but I keep trying
‘Cause that’s what I said I would do from the start
I’m not alive if I’m lonely, so please don’t leave
Was it something I said or just my, just myself
Just myself, myself, just myself
I’m not perfect, but I keep trying
I took a life for granted
Until it slipped right through my fingers
Although forever parted
I feel your presence more than ever
There’s no return from where you went
And it leaves me stranded
It’s written in my heart
It’s written in my soul now
All the memories torn in me
A constant overload
It’s written in the sky
It’s written in the stars now
I’m haunted by the things I know
I should’ve done
All the time we should have had
Is gone
Tonight
In me
Your light will shine
And with a beautifull sky above
I was reduced to being human
I feel I’m ten feet under
And I long for your embrace
In the absence of your love
I pretend to be alright
But it’s written in my heart
It’s written in my soul now
All the memories torn in me
A constant overload
It’s written in the sky
It’s written in the stars now
I’m haunted by the things I know
We should have done
And all the time we should have had
Is gone
Tonight
In me
Your light will shine
In me now
Your living in me
Right in here in the bottom of my heart
With a beautiful sky above
I was reduced to being
Human
A White Blank Page | Mumford and Sons
Can you lie next to her
And give her your heart, your heart
As well as your body
And can you lie next to her
And confess your love, your love
As well as your folly
And can you kneel before the king
And say I’m clean, I’m clean
But tell me now, where was my fault
In loving you with my whole heart
But tell me now, where was my fault
In loving you with my whole heart
A white blank page and a swelling rage, rage
You did not think when you sent me to the brink, the brink
You desired my attention but denied my affections, my affections
Lead me to the truth and I will follow you with my whole life
Lead me to the truth and I will follow you with my whole life
You Only Disappear | Tom McRae
Close my eyes,
I'm moving still
magazines and dollar bills,
and you wake up to a fall of snow,
your telephone your radio
baby I'll call up a storm
keep you safe from harm
but you only disappear
I can live with my regrets
still raise a smile
still raise my head
and a stranger god can be so cruel
and a holy fool is still a fool
but this is all I can say
I have lost my way
but you only disappear
with a word, with a line,
with a smile that says goodbye
baby says goodbye
baby says goodbye
It's raining now
on royal street
and I'd walk to you
if I could trust my feet
Gun - The Only One
Memories of failure and feeling like the fool on the hill, say you will
As I stare into the distance heading down the road it seems so far, to where you are
And I’ve given all I had to give, gave it all to you
And now I got myself believing that I’m not the only one
Meet me at the ocean where sunrise meets the day, I’ll be there, I’ll be there
As I drive another border closer to the place where I belong, where I belong
And it’s easier to walk away from what I have to say
Because I’m not the only reason and I’m not the only one
I almost had my heart believing that I’m not the only one
So many times I thought of leaving but I’m not the only one
I almost had myself believing that I’m not the only one
And so it’s too late now for reasoncause I’m not the only one
I’m not the only one
I’m not the only one
“Into The Ocean” | Blue October
I’m just a normal boy
That sank when I fell overboard
My ship would leave the country
But I’d rather swim ashore
Without a life vest I’d be stuck again
Wish I was much more masculine
Maybe then I could learn to swim
Like ‘fourteen miles away’
Now floating up and down
I spin, colliding into sound
Like whales beneath me diving down
I’m sinking to the bottom of my
Everything that freaks me out
The lighthouse beam has just run out
I’m cold as cold as cold can be
be
I want to swim away but don’t know how
Sometimes it feels just like I’m falling in the ocean
Let the waves up take me down
Let the hurricane set in motion… yeah
Let the rain of what I feel right now…come down
Let the rain come down
Where is the coastguard
I keep looking each direction
For a spotlight, give me something
I need something for protection
Maybe flotsam junk will do just fine
the jetsam sunk, I’m left behind
I’m treading for my life believe me
(How can I keep up this breathing)
Not knowing how to think
I scream aloud, begin to sink
My legs and arms are broken down
With envy for the solid ground
I’m reaching for the life within me
How can one man stop his ending
I thought of just your face
Relaxed, and floated into space
I want to swim away but don’t know how
Sometimes it feels just like I’m falling in the ocean
Let the waves up take me down
Let the hurricane set in motion… yeah
Let the rain of what I feel right now…come down
Let the rain come down
Let the rain come down
Now waking to the sun
I calculate what I had done
Like jumping from the bow (yeah)
Just to prove that I knew how (yeah)
It’s midnight’s late reminder of
The loss of her, the one I love
My will to quickly end it all
Set front row in my need to fall
Into the ocean, end it all
Into the ocean, end it all
Into the ocean, end it all
into the ocean…end it all
[Zayra]
Into the ocean (goodbye) end it all (goodbye)
Into the ocean (goodbye) end it all (goodbye)
Into the ocean (goodbye) end it all (goodbye)
I want to swim away but don’t know how
Sometimes it feels just like I’m falling in the ocean
Let the waves up take me down
Let the hurricane set in motion (yeah)
Let the rain of what I feel right now…come down
Let the rain come down
Let the rain come down
Into the ocean (goodbye) end it all (goodbye)
(In to space)
Into the ocean (goodbye) end it all (goodbye)
Into the ocean (goodbye) end it all (goodbye)
Into the ocean (goodbye) end it all (goodbye)
Into the ocean (goodbye) end it all (goodbye)
Into the ocean (goodbye) end it all (goodbye)
(I thought of just your face)
Into the ocean (goodbye) end it all (goodbye)
Into the ocean (goodbye) end it all (goodbye)
Into the ocean (goodbye) end it all (goodbye)
Into the ocean (goodbye) end it all (goodbye)
By Your Side — Tenth Avenue North
God, this song kills me. I just. D’8 GAAAAAAAHHHHHHH…..
Why are you striving these days?
Why are you trying to earn grace?
Why are you crying?
Let me lift up your face, just don’t turn away
Why are you looking for love?
Why are you still searching as if I’m not enough?
To where will you go child?
Tell me where will you run, to where will you run?
‘Cos I’ll be by your side wherever you fall
In the dead of night whenever you call
And please don’t fight these hands that are holding you
My hands are holding you
Look at these hands at my side
They swallowed the grave on that night
When I drank the world’s sin
So I could carry you in and give you life
I wanna give you life
And I’ll be by your side wherever you fall
In the dead of night whenever you call
And please don’t fight these hands that are holding you
My hands are holding you
Here at my side wherever you fall
In the dead of night whenever you call
And please don’t fight these hands that are holding you
My hands are holding you
‘Cause I, I love you, I want you to know
That I, yeah I love you, I’ll never let you go
No, no
And I’ll be by your side wherever you fall
In the dead of night whenever you call
And please don’t fight these hands that are holding you
My hands are holding you
Here at my side wherever you fall
In the dead of night whenever you call
And please don’t fight these hands that are holding you
My hands are holding you
Here at my side
My hands are holding you

Times | Tenth Avenue North
I know I need You
I need to love You
I’d love to see You but it’s been so long
I long to feel You
I feel this need for You
I need to hear You
Is that so wrong
Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh
Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh
Now You pull me near You
When we’re close I fear You
Still I’m afraid to tell you all that I’ve done
Are You done forgiving
Or can You look past my pretending, Lord
I’m so tired of defending what I’ve become
What have I become
Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh
Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh
Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh
Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh
Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh
I hear You say
My love is over
It’s underneath
It’s inside
It’s in between
The times that you doubt me
When you can’t feel
The times that you question
Is this for real
The times you’re broken
The times that you mend
The times you hate me
And the times that you bend
Well my love is over
It’s underneath
It’s inside
It’s in between
The times that you’re healing
And when your heart breaks
The times that you feel like you’ve fallen from grace
The times you’re hurting
The times that you heal
The times you go hungry and are tempted to steal
In times of confusion
In chaos and pain
I’m there in your sorrow under the weight of your shame
I’m there through your heart-ache
I’m there in the storm
My love I will keep you by my power alone
I don’t care where you’ve fallen or where you have been
I’ll never forsake you
My love never ends
It never ends, mmmm
Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh
Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh
Aereogramme - Barriers
I thought the fight was over
All battles won
I thought you lit your blind folds
And watched them burn
I thought that I could show you
All that I’ve found
But these barriers dictate all sight and all sound
I found love in the loneliest places
Places I shouldn’t be found
I found love in the home of a sinner
Wrapped in some bitter sweet song
So let me tell the truth
And let me come alive
Let me build bridges
Into your life
I’m sick of being born again and again
I don’t need conditions to let you in
Have you noticed how we talk
And how we play our games
A leather-bound appeal
To change our ways
All I wanted was to show you
All that I’ve found
No answers, no exits, no prophecy a pound
I found love in the loneliest places
Places I shouldn’t be found
I found love in the home of a sinner
Wrapped in some bitter sweet song
So let me tell the truth
Let me come alive
Let me build bridges
Into your life
I’m sick of being born again and again
I don’t need conditions to let you in
I found love in the loneliest places
Places I shouldn’t be found
I found love in the home of a sinner
Wrapped in some bitter sweet song
So let me tell the truth
And let me come alive
Let me build bridges
Into your life
I’m sick of being born again and again
I don’t need conditions to let you in
I never meant to hurt you
Or drive you away
The barriers we’ve built;
Looks like they’re here to stay
Electric President | Feathers
So the heart stolen songs
And the sirens sing along from out at sea
And we close our eyes and turn to watch them leave
You are not to blame for what happens to me
So you know where I’m from
And you know just what I’ve done and what I’ve seen
And what I will become if I’m cut free
And you are not to blame for what happens to me
And the feathers on your breath
Dance along the wind and cut my chest
I’d follow you down any rabbit hole
And the bruise beneath your eyes has been growing like the tide
Well no matter how this ends
They’ll never be a crutch the way I am
I’d follow you down any rabbit hole
Come find me when I sleep
And tie anchors ‘round my feet
