There’s a chance that they’ll find me on the shore When I sink trying to swim away once more The hum of the city The sirens sounds so pretty coming for me The waves of the ocean Drown me in a potion of glee, glee There’s a chance that they’ll find me on the shore When I sink trying to swim away once more Coughing, it’s frothing from me I’m falling in water deep You’re thrashing, you’re slashing the weeds Swimming, while sirens weep The throb of my breathing Pain like I’m teething, screaming The salt water burning I’m twisting and turning, bleeding There's a chance that they'll find me on the shore When I sink trying to swim to you once more Coughing, it’s frothing from me I’m falling in water deep You’re thrashing, you’re slashing the weeds Swimming, while sirens weep

If you want to know me ask these fields Where every blade of grass has acted like a shield Holding memories of mine Now I'm inviting you inside to Walk the paths I used to roam See the land I call my home Hear the train tracks shuddering Sit by the pond where I fell in If you want to know me climb the trees Every branch could tell a story about me Listen to the whispers in the breeze Let them blow away your worries Walk the paths I used to roam See the land I call my home Hear the train tracks shuddering Sit by the pond where I fell in Walk the paths I used to roam See the land I call my home Hear the train tracks shuddering Sit by the pond where I fell in Take a seat upon the hill Hold yourself against the chill Above the city that raised me In these fields where I ran free

We're trading places And you're taking shape And I’ll make a space for you We make mistakes And we're always changing And my heart would break for you Words are hammers as they preach Telling us how we should heal But it is not a simple truth Closing in, angry sky Reaching in so we can’t hide But I will try to fight for you Heavy air surrounds us The heat threatens to drown us We’re broken but can’t break through We're trading places And you're taking shape And I’ll make a space for you We make mistakes And we're always changing And my heart would break for you Our bodies lie beyond their reach We’re tangled up in things we need I am melting into you We're trading places And you're taking shape And I’ll make a space for you We make mistakes And we're always changing And my heart would break for you We're trading places And you're taking shape And I’ll make a space for you

With you is the only place that feels like home But how long will you stay, I don't know I'm scared, I'm scared of there being no-one I'm scared, I'm scared to walk alone I don't know why you keep on walking away What have I done How can I make you stay Make it stop I don't like the rain today I want to stay dry I don't want to take the blame With you is the only place that feels like home But how long will you stay, I don't know I'm scared, I'm scared of there being no-one I'm scared, I'm scared to walk alone Maybe it's time I stop letting the tide suck me in Gotta start swimming Maybe it's time but I don't know how to begin I've been treading water Gotta learn to swim With you is the only place that feels like home But how long will you stay, I don't know I'm scared, I'm scared of there being no-one I'm scared, I'm scared to walk alone With you is the only place that feels like home But how long will you stay, I don't know I'm scared, I'm scared of there being no-one I'm scared, I'm scared to walk alone

Sometimes my reflection is unclear My eyes are clouded by the things I fear I want to build something strong but I can barely carry on Take me home, take me home I stare down to the water I step into the river I’m carried by the ripples And a thousand tiny cries Teach me, I’m your daughter Take me to the answer I’m carried by the trickles And the thousand times I tried ‘cause I don’t know where I’m meant to go But I’ll leave my footprints to follow home And I’m not sure what I’m waiting for But one day I’ll make sense of it all Strong against the calling of regret I closed my ears to its worried threats Something calls out to me, there is more than what you see You are more, than you’ve known before ‘cause I don’t know where I’m meant to go But I’ll leave my footprints to follow home And I’m not sure what I’m waiting for But one day I’ll make sense of it all I’ve been walking for so long My skin weighs heavy on my bones But I will always carry on ‘cause I don’t know where I’m meant to go But I’ll leave my footprints to follow home And I’m not sure what I’m waiting for But one day I’ll make sense of it all

Waking up somewhere new and I don’t know where to start Waking up next to you was so long ago but still held in my heart Open your eyes and step outside Make your feet tap tap away Let your body play And sing out the words you wish to say I’m awake trying to stay sane Trying to take my life and make a change Ready to run now ready to roam No time to take it slow I’m on the road Do you miss me when I go? Never sure what is next I’m just relying on the stars Trusting that fate knows best I’m just letting go and watching from afar Open your eyes and step outside Make your feet tap tap away Let your body play And sing out the words you wish to say I’m awake trying to stay sane Trying to take my life and make a change Ready to run now ready to roam No time to take it slow I’m on the road Do you miss me when I go? So much new So much to learn Lessons come and lessons hurt Never feeling steady But I’m ready for the challenge that’s coming next I’m awake trying to stay sane Trying to take my life and make a change Ready to run now ready to roam No time to take it slow I’m on the road I’m on the road Oh I’m on the road Oh I’m on, I’m on the road Do you miss me when I go?

Green eyes How could I have known? 
Like trees in the sunlight But your innocent guise was just for show And I never wanted to be anything but what you needed I was blind to the problems that were breeding And I wasn’t thinking right when I reached out for your hand When you showed what you were I threw myself to the sea and I swam Waves of grey Like steel so dark as they break The water never yields I am carried by earth-less fields And I never wanted to be anything but what you needed I was blind to the problems that were breeding And I wasn’t thinking right when I reached out for your hand When you showed what you were I threw myself to the sea and I swam Now I can’t be sure of the words that you spoke so kindly before When such tenderness and your lips could lie And I’ll never know if the song that you sang was the story we wrote Did you mean those words for me? And I never wanted to be anything but what you needed I was blind I was blind I was blind

Little flashes spark behind my eyes Memories of being small and short goodbyes Long nights and drinking games You holding me as I learned of his betrayal Cards that I still read Summers without end I know these memories won’t bring you here to me Know I wish they would my friend You are the oldest friend of mine And I love how you know my mind Though our childhood selves got left behind I may be gone but I will always remember your smile Nasty words I didn’t mean Behind your back but you heard me Too stubborn to say sorry first Still you were there when I was at my worst Young mistakes and bad names Lonely days and tears I know this melody won’t make you forgive me Just know I’m sorry for those years You are the oldest friend of mine And I love how you know my mind Though our childhood selves got left behind I may be gone but I will always remember your smile There are days now and again I’ve spent Looking over past regrets Though I’ve learned to pull through and love what I do I hope my future has more of you You are the oldest friend of mine And I love how you know my mind Though our childhood selves got left behind I may be gone but I will always remember your smile I may be gone but I will always remember your smile

The smell of cigarettes and a starlit sky The burning embers of our last goodbye I told myself that we had more time How was I to know you’d already changed your mind? Do I love you? 
Am I just lonelier than I can see? Do you love me? You played the power game Only said yes when I said no You never really felt the same You won the game I never thought you’d play But now’s the time I’m letting go With the heavy heart you didn’t mean to break Lost holding the broken parts of us They cut like knives into my skin when I hold them up to the light Now burning brighter deep inside When I let go, I feel strong as I ignite I used to love you But now I see that we can never be Did you ever love me? You played the power game Only said yes when I said no You never really felt the same You won the game I never thought you’d play But now’s the time I’m letting go With the heavy heart you didn’t mean to break I am taking back the reins I won’t let myself be burned out or ruled by hate New life courses through my veins I feel at home inside these flames You played the power game Only said yes when I said no You never really felt the same You won the game I never thought you’d play But now’s the time I’m letting go With the heavy heart you didn’t mean to break I hope that you didn’t mean to play

You got my secret affection And every time that you’re mentioned I fight hard to keep my feelings in place But now I’m losing my discretion ‘Cos all I want is your attention And I’m tired of keeping it under wraps each day You make my heart race I love the chase You make my heart race I love the chase Overanalyse every word I say Think too hard about each move I make When I’m under your gaze my giddy brain slips into a haze I’m so awkward and clumsy I look to you hoping you’re looking back at me And I don’t mean to be so naïve I just want something real I want your body close to mine If you would just give me a sign The more I see you the more I lose my mind Will it work out this time? You got my secret affection And every time that you’re mentioned I fight hard to keep my feelings in place But now I’m losing my discretion ‘Cos all I want is your attention And I’m tired of keeping it under wraps each day You make my heart race I love the chase You make my heart race I love the chase I let myself believe the love in fairy tales Said “it could happen to me” but each time it failed But I don’t lose hope There’s magic in this world I know The wait just makes my heart grow I want your body close to mine If you would just give me a sign The more I see you the more I lose my mind Will it work out this time? You got my secret affection And every time that you’re mentioned I fight hard to keep my feelings in place But now I’m losing my discretion ‘Cos all I want is your attention And I’m tired of keeping it under wraps each day You make my heart race I love the chase You make my heart race I love the chase You make my heart race baby You make my heart race Don’t know if I’ll win today I’m just happy to be in the game You make my heart race baby You make my heart race One day I’ll find my way, ‘til then I’m gonna love the chase One day I’ll find my way, ‘til then I’m gonna love the chase One day I’ll find my way, ‘til then I’m gonna love the chase

We're leaving our bodies just for a while We're climbing the mountains that we built inside our minds Floating on empty words Making our little voices heard Just trying to figure out how life works We're leaving to stop the hurt She was standing in the black smoke Struggling to hold her head up She was gasping as she choked Still she kept dancing on the flames til she fell down Every now and then it feels hopeless Everyone has days like this But every voice is telling you it's worth it Something good in every miss We're leaving our bodies just for a while We're climbing the mountains that we built inside our minds Floating on empty words Making our little voices heard Just trying to figure out how life works We're leaving to stop the hurt He was lost inside a red fire Wisps were clawing at his throat He just tried to stay alive As they left marks that scarred like tiny ropes Every now and then it feels hopeless Everyone has days like this And every voice is telling you it's worth it Something good in every miss We're leaving our bodies just for a while We're climbing the mountains that we built inside our minds Floating on empty words Making our little voices heard Just trying to figure out how life works We're leaving to stop the hurt We follow the only paths we see Get lost and bloodied Told not to worry Unable to live and be truly free Our souls are chained to our fragile frames We're leaving our bodies just for a while We're climbing the mountains that we built inside our minds Floating on empty words Making our little voices heard Just trying to figure out how life works We're leaving to stop We're leaving to stop the hurt We're leaving to stop the hurt

I sank deep into a lake of green Bound by the reeds of the water I begged them for my release They let me be My heart was light with relief Then I was blinded by darkness Frightened but gratefully free I rise meekly And I breathe deeply Finally waking from my sleep I leave here on winds that still my fears They carry me gently over the landscape as I disappear I don't know how I can let go and move now But every anchor is being cast off And I'm just floating around I rise meekly And I breathe deeply Finally waking from my sleep The forest peaks catch me and lull me to sleep Safety in arm-like branches will heal me to take the leap I rise And I breathe deeply Finally waking from my sleep Finally able to be free

I was so scared Black night and misty air So unprepared Held my own hand to protect myself from where I was headed I'm dumb Every word on earth has fled my tongue I crawl Although every day I pray to run I'm dumb Left broken and numb I am dumb Cry for the shadow I've become The night it speaks I hear words carried on the breeze They comfort me A new calls but my open mouth is still burdened with silence I'm dumb Every word on earth has fled my tongue I crawl Although every day I pray to run I'm dumb Left broken and numb I am dumb Cry for the shadow I've become The last words you spoke to me Loop inside my mind like birdsong in the trees I cannot speak Can't describe the loss of all that I believed Dumb Dumb I'm dumb Every word on earth has fled my tongue I crawl Although every day I pray to run I'm dumb Left broken and numb I am dumb Cry for the shadow I've become
