Fading into blue,
Waves crashing under you.
Waves crashing under you.
Nothing will change it.
I knew you,
I felt, sometimes,
The air so light.
You were never meant to wander
Far away from cold air.
Are you tempted by the colors
Far away?
Always out of touch.
The patterns change so much.
The patterns change so much.
So hard to follow.
You choose to
Fly out into the air at night.
You were never meant to wander
Far away from home.
Watching the passing time,
Everything is frozen.

Skipping stones right behind you.
Just stop because
You’re not a kid anymore.
You’re not a kid anymore.
You say “I mean,”
You say “I mean,”
You’re not a kid anymore.
You’re not a kid anymore.
All your friends they like the same things,
Why can't you see?
You’re not a kid anymore.
You’re not a kid anymore.
In your head I'm afraid
Just to be at home,
Alone.
Meet you on our favorite playground
But nothing looks familiar.
You’re not a kid anymore.
You’re not a kid anymore.
You say “I mean,”
You say “I mean,”
You’re not a kid anymore.
You’re not a kid anymore.
Know the place where friends will find you,
Where will you be tomorrow?
You’re not a kid anymore.
You’re not a kid anymore.
In your head I'm afraid
Just to be at home,
Alone.
In my head you’re afraid
Just to be alone.
In your head I'm afraid
Just to be at home.
Alone.

See You Cry

I've seen you cry
A thousand times.
You never leave your bedroom anymore.
Your face is red,
I understand
You never try to ease your mind.
Seasons die and leave behind
Dead leaves scattered on the lawn.
Settled dust on things you love,
They won't last very long.
I’ll say goodbye
Just for tonight.
Can’t be around this anymore.
Shattered eyes
In paradise,
Can't see the meaning of the moment.
Seasons die and leave behind
Dead leaves scattered on the lawn.
Settled dust on things you love.
They won't last very long.
I see you cry
And tears run dry.
No longer holding onto fleeting hearts.
Uncertain thoughts
You come across,
It doesn't change the cards that fall.
Seasons die and leave behind
Dead leaves scattered on the lawn.
Settled dust on things you love,
They won’t last very long.

Colorblind.
Seems like I've been using someone’s eyes.
Can't recall the love that I’m after.
Broken nose,
Pay for all the chances you’re supposed to have.
If I could then I'll try a hundred times before
To get through the absence of seeing distant shores.
I wonder if I change the colors throughout her
the world could be your fantasy.
I've dreamt through days with hostile memories.
Differences you make up between us.
Honeycombs,
Ice cream melts the bottoms of your toes.
Turning malice into affection.
You always were eager to dig into the sand
While I was dreaming of holding your hand.
If we hide under the covers together,
the world could be your fantasy.

Let Down

I was waiting to be let down.
Fill my head with your thoughts.
I was waiting to be let down.
Taking my time behind the phone.
I was waiting to be let down.
Singled out when you’re all alone.
I was waiting to be let down.
This is not what you expect from me.
All the times you fooled me,
Driving through to be part of
A memory fading out in time.
All the times you fooled me,
Driving through to be part of
A memory fading from your mind.
I was waiting to be let down.
You’re too close to understand.
I was waiting to be let down.
Bicycle trails run through the trees.
I was waiting to be let down.
You can say it's over now.
I was waiting to be let down.
Screaming so loud he hears me call.
All the times you fool me,
Driving through to be part of
A memory fading out in time.
All the times you fooled me.
Driving through to be part of
A memory fading from your mind.

100 Flowers

I see you hanging around but I'm better off without
Poison in my mind, now it’s something left behind.
I never thought it would be a little taste of jealousy.
It's you I can recall singing songs about the future.
Dreams are ways you can connect to life outside a bitter, blank view.
Hundreds of flowers, you’ve got hundreds of flowers.
Always stuck around the corner waiting for someone to find you.
Do you wonder if they'll bother?
Tell me all your lies but you’re stuck in our hometown.
Sadness seems to drive all your friends away from school.
The last I heard you were fine, there is no place without you.
Even when the storms arrive, don't try too hard.
Do you see the light behind you, closing in upon the shadows?
Slowly shimmers outside your window.
Sleepless nights are not surprising, all your words they lose their meaning.
Hundreds of flowers, you’ve got hundreds of flowers.

Mermaids

I never want to be the one to leave you high and dry
And yet you wonder if the water flows right.
I fell feet first.
We dive so deep.
Sinking, submerge,
Descend.
All the waves taking shape across the sound.
All the waves taking shape across the white sound.
You can’t make those mistakes,
No second chances.
We sink to the bottom of the ocean, swallowed by the tide.
We tried so hard to see the surface all night.
Islands appear
in the distance.
Rising, emerge,
Ascend.
All the waves taking shape across the sound.
All the waves taking shape across the white sound.
You can’t make those mistakes,
No second chances.

Sister calling,
Pictures falling
Onto the hardwood.
Pieces of pleasant times.
Recall the second,
Gather what remains
Until you run out.
Visions come undone.
When you’re growing up, everybody's a stranger to you.
In your age it shows about who you know.
Moving around, no longer live together
In the summer house where dandelions grow.
Foggy places,
Distant faces,
Reminiscent.
Sitting on porches.
Can it be true,
10 years spilled over?
Incandescent
Memories glisten.
When you’re growing up, everybody's a stranger to you.
In your age it shows about who you know.
Moving around, no longer live together
In the summer house where dandelions grow.

Honestly baby I'm in love with your name.
Endlessly obsessing over what you say.
I take my time
To recognize
The gaze in your tired eyes.
When I talk to you, I wonder if you hear me.
Carefully treading over gentle waves.
All the time
You drop beneath,
I'll create this fantasy.

It's 3am,
You’re gone again.
Lost around the lakeside
To put me to bedtime.
Home in the cold morning,
Crawling out and calling.
Spanish flies are waiting,
Emerald green they glisten.
Call me daily just to exercise my trust.
We'll see how this unfolds, leaving together.
Color of candy, seems like a different taste of smoke.
Back in the moonlit fields, leaving together.
Introduce a picture
From melodic fixtures.
Time and time again we know
Violet tides are beautiful.
Wake up your brother,
Father, son and mother.
Standing by the waist side
Under the moonlight.
Call me daily just to exercise my trust.
We'll see how this unfolds, leaving together.
Color of candy, seems like a different taste of smoke.
Back in the moonlit fields, leaving together.
