Just Press Play

I was an army once
A liar in lovers clothes
A force to be reckoned with
I was an angel once
Cast out on broken wings
Gave in to everything
I don't mind these sad goodbyes
As long as they come from my friends
But every night it drives me wild
That I find myself back here again
I was a temptress once
A painted face in the crowd
Silently screaming out
I was a hero once
Beaming and standing proud
While the world was just crashing down
I don't mind these sad goodbyes
As long as they come from my friends
But every night it drives me wild
That I find myself back here again
Every broken note inside my symphony
Every line I wrote is a scar you cannot see
If I ever start to fade inside your memory
Just press play
Every single moment that we gave away
For all the things I tried to but could never say
If you ever start to think that you have lost your way
Just press play
I was a prophet once
High on a mountain top
Until I looked at myself
And I found
That I was a devil once
In somebody else's eyes
And I never made amends
I don't mind these sad goodbyes
As long as they come from my friends
But every night it drives me wild
That I find myself back here again
Every broken note inside my symphony
Every line I wrote is a scar you cannot see
If I ever start to fade inside your memory
Just press play
Every single moment that we gave away
For all the things I tried to but could never say
If you ever start to think that you have lost your way
Just press play

With a sun burned back and a restless smile
We turn to face the ones
Who would stab our backs
Who would light the fire
Redeeming everyone
I'm out here all on my own
Cuz when you dig a grave
You dig it for two
Better dig it deep
Cuz when you dig a grave
Is it deep enough?
When the lights go out will you just wait for it.
Or will you strike the faster blow
Cuz there's no regret like a wasted moment
There's beauty in the letting go
I'm out here all on my own
Cuz when you dig a grave...
You know the way this story will end
You give yourself away
Lose it all in the end
That's why they say
When you dig a grave
You dig it for two
Better dig it deep
Cuz when you dig a grave
Is it deep enough?

Carry You

Early hour riser high
Watch the sun wake in the morning
A smarter man would take his money far away
What can I say? I'm gonna stay
With the light upon the shelf
Did I do this to myself?
With a heart that's aching
And it just might break
We tow the line and just keep going
We trace our stories across the sky
when we come back down
Don't say that its too late
Cuz I'm hoping you'll stay
If I was a mountain with places to hide
I'd keep you happy and warm if you like
If I was a soldier I'd fight for your throne
If I was a river I'd carry you home
With the light upon the shelf
Did I do this to myself?
With a heart that's aching
And it just might break
With the light upon the shelf
Did I do this to myself?
With a heart that's aching
And it just might break
If I was a mountain with places to hide
I'd keep you happy and warm if you like
If I was a soldier I'd fight for your throne
If I was a river I'd carry you home
If I was a mountain with places to hide
I'd keep you happy and warm if you like
If I was a soldier I'd fight for your throne
If I was a river I'd carry you home

THE JOURNEY:
Don't say stop
Don't stop living
Living with dreams
Dreams are forgiving
Giving you hope
Hoping you find your way
Don't say when
Don't say nothing
Nothing is best but it
Better mean something
More than voice
More than the heart can say
Give me your hand
Hand me your liars
Lie to my face
Face your desires
Giving you hope
Hoping you find your way
Get on the train
Ride it to nowhere
Where you end up
Hope that its somewhere
You can call home
Cuz home is where you belong
Like a freight train
Like a new day coming
Like a big wave
You gotta keep running from
I can't help you
It was not my fault
Like a sun ray
I'm gonna keep shining
On a dark day
Like an angel in paradise
I can't help you
It was not my fault
Man with a dog
Down on the corner
Begging for scraps
Down with disorder
Asking for change but
Unwilling to change his heart
Get on the train
Ride it to nowhere
Where you end up
Hope that its somewhere
You can call home
Cuz home is where you belong
I've got a name like anyone
Fall out the sky and see what you've done
Bring me the peace I'm looking for
I've got a name like anyone
Fall out the sky and see what you've done
Bring me the peace I'm looking for
Like a freight train
Like a new day coming
Like a big wave
You gotta keep running from
I can't help you
It was not my fault
Like a sun ray
I'm gonna keep shining
On a dark day
Like an angel in paradise
I can't help you
It was not my fault
Like a freight train
Like a new day coming
Like a big wave
You gotta keep running from
I can't help you
It was not my fault
Like a sun ray
I'm gonna keep shining
On a dark day
Like an angel in paradise
THE ATLAS:
Welcome home dear
To the place where
Time is slow
Here, will you stay?
THE PRIZE:
I guess I'm a sinner
Lord knows I'm thinner
Nobody wins a war
There's hate and there's anger
Directed at strangers
But nobody knows what for
You have the life you do
Because you gave it all you got
You never said "I quit"
And man that really says a lot
If I can be more than a memory, I pick you
Working on weekends
When happiness depends
On more than the size of your check
I got angels and demons
And Jesus between them
With no one here I'd be a wreck
You have the life you do
Because you gave it all you got
You never said "I quit"
And man that really says a lot
If I can be more than a memory, I pick you

Until the Tide Comes In
04:40
|

Dark was the night my lover was took by the storm
Set sail at first light, and now he may sleep with the foam
I will walk until the tide comes in
Until the ocean brings me back my lover yet again
Black was the sea, that rendered my journey complete
The blood from my heart, now lives with him there in the dark
Five years passed
Since I've held my lovers dear hand
And now that I'm gone
I no longer walk on the sand
I have walked until the tide came in
Until the ocean brought me to my lover yet again
I will walk until the tide comes in
Until the ocean brings me back my lover yet again

Soft in the middle until he breaks
He don't want to
But he's going to let it out
Alive in the little lies we say
For a cost dear
We could get lost here
Inside in the riddle of what it means
When you're not here
I get lost here
Longing for simple times it seems
Is an art dear
So damn hard to stay away
I never needed a reason before
Just to be sure
Your love don't get me high no more
I never needed a reason to lie
Just step inside
Your love don't get me high no more

Portishead - Glory Box

I'm so tired of playing
Playing with this bow and arrow
Gonna give my heart away
Leave it to the other girls to play
For I've been a temptress too long
Just...
Give me a reason to love you
Give me a reason to be a woman
I just wanna be a woman
From this time, unchained
We're all looking at a different picture
Through this new frame of mind
A thousand flowers could bloom
Move over and give us some room, yeah
Give me a reason to love you
Give me a reason to be a woman
I just want to be a woman
So don't you stop being a man
Just take a little look
From our side when you can
Sow a little tenderness
No matter if you cry
Give me a reason to love you
Give me a reason to be a woman
I just want to be a woman
It's all I wanna be, is all a woman
For this is the beginning
Of forever and ever
It's time to move over
It's all I want to be
I'm so tired of playing
Playing with this bow and arrow
Gonna give my heart away
Leave it to the other girls to play
For I've been a temptress too long
Just...
Give me a reason to love you

Steady As She Goes

Steady as she goes
Deeper than she's gone before
Said she must return
All the love she lost before
And I'd be a liar
If I said I missed you
Cuz such simple words
Could never replace you
So steady as she goes
Steady as she goes
Farther than she's ever known
For everything she's learned
No closer than she was before
And I'd be on fire
If I entered your atmosphere
The truth is I burn brighter when you are near
So steady as she goes
