Lyrics
Smells like a storm is coming
waiting for the weather to break
we're always waiting for the rain
drop a penny in the well
count how long it falls
we're always wishing for
the echoes of a memory
It always feels like the axis turns on me
waiting for some tidal disruption
to carry me away
hoping for the glass borders to break
dropping pennies in the well
and wishing for the rain
Smells like the ashes burning
waiting for the weather to break
we're always running from the pain
dropping pennies in the well
count how long it falls
we're always looking for
someone else to blame
It always feels like the axis turns on me
waiting for some tidal disruption
to carry me away
hoping for the glass borders to break
dropping pennies in the well
and wishing for the rain

Lyrics
Lights going down I'm weaving through the back streets, feel the pulsing of the
Heartbeats that pass me by, eyes wide as I'm turning right
Exhaust fumes rising up in the night air, chase the feeling of
Anticipation gathering, evidence of my fear
Possibilities
(Makes me brave every time my courage wanes)
Washing over me
(Call me loud trying to make out what your saying)
Night falling down I'm trying to shed this old skin,
Lose my frame and
All of my old friends, hell bent on changing
I jumped a train without thinking and found myself here
Lost in the city, lost in the city
Possibilities
(Makes me brave every time my courage wanes)
Washing over me
(Call me loud trying to make out what your saying)
Possibilities
(Neon lights tell me everything will change)
Washing over me
(Breathe in the fear and take your aim)
Possibilities
(Diamond white tell me everything's alright)
Washing over me
(Breathe in the fear and take your aim)

Lyrics
I'm getting tired, so tired
of reading between too many lines.
Just forget the world outside,
I'll play with the fragments recombined
In my mind, left behind.
Apologies pushed to one side.
Good intentions undermined,
I'll play with these notions undefined.
What did you mean?
What did you really mean?
But if your heart was mine
somewhere, sometime.
But if your heart was mine
somehow unkind.
What did you mean?
What did you really mean?
I'm getting tired, so tired
of all those chances slipped behind.
Repositioned one more time,
I'll play with the fragments swept aside.
What did you mean?
What did you really mean?
But if your heart was mine
somewhere, sometime.
But if your heart was mine
somehow unkind.
What did you mean?
What did you really mean?

Silent Room

Turn the dial switch the station
I wanna run but you're moving too fast for me
Left my notes in the margins
This silent room is talking too loud at me
Chasing down these fools errands
I stayed in bed and licked my wounds today
Left my footprints on the pavement
You're standing still but I'm still left in your wake
Three simple words to make you feel better
Go ask the watcher what he has in store for me
Just trying to get a hold on this ladder
Caught in your midnight web and I cant get free
No I cant get free
But don't wait for me
No don't wait for me
Turn the dial switch the station
I wanna read but you're moving too fast to see
Wrote my name on the pavement
This city noise is calling out my name
Three simple words to make you feel better
Go ask the watcher what he has in store for me
Just trying to get a hold on this ladder
Caught in your midnight web and I cant get free
No I cant get free
But don't wait for me
No don't wait for me

You had me believing we were broken
So we painted our faces and grew our hair
Adolescence spelled out in eyeliner
There's no shortcuts through there
Would you still sing my name
If no-one ever listened?
Still write down how it felt
If no-one ever reads?
All the same kind of nothing
But our nothings don't function the same
Soft and lost and lonely
Long, dark and sustained
Would you still sing my name
If no-one ever listened?
Still write down how it felt
If no-one ever reads?
But to make yourself feel nothing
To not feel anything
Oh what a waste
What a waste
Would you still sing my name
If no-one ever listened?
Still write down how it felt
If no-one ever reads?

Through the Woods

And I walked through the woods
Evening traffic roars behind like wolves in the night
Would things change if I could?
Conversations in my mind
Just a few steps more
Killed by the calm in your voice
Just a few steps more
Drowned in the depths of your eyes
Just a few steps more
Ripples on the stream
Guided by the autumn leaves
And I get lost in the noise
Just following your voice
Questions on the breeze
Guided by the autumn leaves
Easy like one, two, three
Was it something you did to me?
Your presence unseen takes me from behind
Ask me your questions
Get the same answers each time.
Just a few steps more
Killed by the calm in your voice
Just a few steps more
Drowned in the depths of your eyes
Just a few steps more
Ripples on the stream
Guided by the autumn leaves

Do you still think of me the way I think of you
The words don't fall from me the way they do for you
Our tainted chemistry, I guess I should've known
But oh, when you smiled at me
Flirting with shadows but running from the dark
Don't turn around on your way out
Playing with sunlight but crying when it burns
Don't turn around on your way out
Ok, but just a little, just a little
Do you ever cry at films the way I cried for you?
The narratives play out but not like me and you
Our haunted love story, I guess I should've known
But oh, when you smiled at me
Flirting with shadows but running from the dark
Don't turn around on your way out
Playing with sunlight but crying when it burns
Don't turn around on your way out
Ok, but just a little, just a little

The moon looks sharp tonight
cutting through the atmosphere
dark shadows pierce the light
so lonely and austere
my breath fogs up like ice
but all my thoughts are crystal clear
I won't let you break my stride
I am getting out of here
Sharp footsteps pound behind
stirring up my hopes and fears
your voice rings clear and bright
it echoes in my ears
Such force and eloquence
that every word is insincere
I won't let you break my stride
I am getting out of here
What do you take me for?
You don't love me anymore
and I'm not the girl to stick around
just to numb your pain
Your broken and wounded soul
it only keeps you in control
but I realized and it's hit me like
a bullet to my brain

Driving Away

Let's drive away, just me and you
City lights sparkle on the highway
Chasing the pretty lies and staring at the neon blue
Wishing I was somewhere new
Finding new ways to say what we already knew
Let's drive away just me and you
Shining stars sparkle on the horizon
A new beginning again because
Your demons are not your friends
Wishing I was still with you
Finding things to say that sound like they're true
We're all in the same game
Just different levels
We're all in the same hell
Fighting different devils
Just drive away
Let's drive away just you and me
This place, it aint what it used to be
City lights don't sparkle like they used to
Empty like the neon blue
Wishing I was somewhere new
Finding new ways to say what we already knew
We're all in the same game
Just different levels
We're all in the same hell
Fighting different devils
Just drive away
