Lyrics

Rebound

I got no patience running round and round Trying to find the right time to slow you down To tell you that I'm leaving today I feel the armour wearing way too thin The last time cut too deep to start again I need healing If I told you before what we know now Would it change what we done, could we rebound? Keep our bodies in touch, as we lay down Can we rebound? Rebound? And when everything we touch breaks We try to rewind the tape Can we rebound? Watching my courage fade Everytime I try to say Can we rebound? We got no business trying to be just friends Stop myself from trying to call you up again Just to know how you feel The months have doubled but the distance gone It must be right if we're holding on We're still hanging by a thread, I left my scissors by the bed If I told you before what we know now Would it change what we done, could we rebound? Keep our bodies in touch, as we lay down Can we rebound? Rebound? If I told you before what you know now Would it change what we done, could we rebound? Keep our bodies in touch, as we lay down Can we rebound? Rebound? And when everything we touch breaks We try to rewind the tape Can we rebound? Watching my courage fade Everytime I try to say Can we rebound? Is it too late for us to stay Stay, another night Is it too late for me to stay Stay, stay a while And when everything we touch breaks We try to rewind the tape Can we rebound? Watching my courage fade Everytime I try to say Can we rebound?

Child

Breathing alone You're restless, my fingers are numb I'm counting the cracks on the floorboards they're coming undone My how you've grown See I thought I knew As your child I'd listen to you Your voice is defeated but inside my strength There's a portrait of you Can I, I, Can I be your child? (Do nothing but) Shelter me and press me to your arms So I don't have to ever see what's wrong Try to fight it but I'm lost in an ocean Tide pulling at my childlike devotion I'm not, ready, come up, to breathe, Can I be a child? Can I be a child? Holding my own I watched as you slowly unfolded I'm counting the waves that would wash you away now dissolve My how you've grown Can I, I, Can I be your child? (Do nothing but) Shelter me and press me to your arms So I don't have to ever see what's wrong Try to fight it but I'm lost in an ocean Tide pulling at my childlike devotion I'm not, ready, come up, to breathe, Can I be a child? Can I be a child? I'm not ready, come up to breathe I'm not ready, come up I'm not ready, come up to breathe I'm not ready, come up Can I, I, Can I be your child? (Do nothing but) Shelter me and press me to your arms So I don't have to ever see what's wrong Try to fight it but I'm lost in an ocean Tide pulling at my childlike devotion I'm not, ready, come up, to breathe, Can I be a child? Can I be a child?

Ghost

In the darkest of nights I am a wanderer Aimless bird in flight I sang a song about you I maintained my resolve I kept you in view Lost my faith for a time Savoured the thought of you I see your ghost Everywhere the same thing A shadow that you left me I see your ghost What's left of you is faded I'm clinging to the memory I see your ghost Unwinding thoughts like a kite Floating them round in my head A figure flickers in the light I think it was you I see your ghost Everywhere the same thing A shadow that you left me I see your ghost What's left of you is faded I'm clinging to the memory I see your ghost Losing the thought, Traces of your, Faces evading you everywhere I see your ghost I see your ghost Everywhere the same thing A shadow that you left me I see your ghost What's left of you is faded I'm clinging to the memory I see your ghost

I'd Do It All Again

Fate won't end us But if we don't talk we will I hold us I'm reaching out to clean up the spill We walked on the rocks again All the way out to the end But if I had my time over I'd do it all again Are we too young? I can see the sun setting I'll hold on Short love, long forgetting We walked on the rocks again All the way out to the end if I had my time over I'd do it all again Can we do it in another life? I'll miss all the patience you gave me when I was just loving blind Did we meet at the wrong time? Cause I'm trying to find out a way I can change your mind Am I too young To let my heart extend I opened And felt the pain come in Time can go a million ways But you are on a different plane If you had your time over Would you do it all again? I'd do it all again

Embrace

Surrender to my aching pains It was always gonna end this way Never listen to a word you say Tangled in my own embrace Stone My beating pulse Kept you to myself for so long Oh you're feeding Coldness into my lungs And It lingers in my bones Fuelled with porous self assurance There is no way to take it back, there is no way to take it back Tainting our skin it seeps within There is no way to take it back, there is no way to take it back Surrender to my aching pains It was always gonna end this way Never listen to a word you say Tangled in my own embrace It's colder In my arms You've been patient for so long I still need you To breathe warmth into me But I know I should let you go

All In

I will find another way To resurrect that time and space We can always imitate Maybe just the time and place I know that you're waiting, I know that we faded Don't ever forget
 We've given too much To give it a rest I'm all in. I'm all in I will find another way To resurrect that time and space We can always imitate Maybe just the time and place I started to hesitate As your presence fell away Now when I speak your name I feel the distance fade I hope that this can stay stay the same I know that you're waiting, I know that we faded Don't ever forget
 We've given too much To give it a rest I'm all in. I'm all in

BQE

There's still cars outside on the expressway The traffic still wails all night and creeps inside And if you were chasing light I understand We're all grasping for a match to strike
