City 04:24
Know there's a ticket with my name on it Know there's a plane leaving any minute Know there's a past that is full of fear This ain't a chance that I can forfeit Spend a lotta time thinking about the situation I'm in Get it once in every while but I never really make sense of it Should've ink the lyric down, like the figure 8 on my wrist One day I'll figure it out then drill it into my head Moving on Manning up Man enough? Moving on Spent 2 years cleaning up the mess that I made Still don't believe but ill take the leap anyway I feel the nerves swirl around my body Take all I learned and hit the ground running Moving on Manning up Man enough? Moving on City x4 Know there's a ticket with my name on it Know there's a plane leaving any minute Know there's a past that is full of fear This ain't a chance that I can forfeit Moving on Manning up Man enough? Moving on

Boy 03:38
This is all I can do now You are lookin' at a boy, that doesn’t know who he is And you are lookin' at a boy, that nearly lost it all You are lookin' at a boy, that can’t recall where he came from And you are lookin' at a boy, that’s barely holdin' on This is all I can do now Encapsulated in disease, and standing here on his own Was violated by a screen, that reads it can’t be done Captivated by nothing, inspiring lives surely bring me down Was motivated by a dream, but it’s on the verge of dying now This is all I can do now - You are looking at a boy

Accelerate 03:47
Forget the end For it will eat you again Dwell in the gift Keep telling yourself it Repeat it like a fucking mantra Accelerate x4 Drop the doubt Jump the wall Break your own fall Accelerate Accelerate x4 I don't want it to come This is all that I know Every lane that I find Will surely lead to sorrow Yeah x4 Accelerate x4 Yesterday has come x2

I Need Love 03:47
Float away from my problems every night In hand an orange Bic lighter and a water filled pipe For a moment I am blind from all the problems in my life Trying to deny that theres is something wrong with me Collateral damage at the top of my anatomy Sip a little science and it carries all my shit away Sit down and sing a sad song Feel the tears trickle down The skin on my skeleton I need love, soon Seams of the laughter's vanished with a cloud of smoke I Look into the glass at a man that I used to know Stabbed him In the back as this habit has grown out of control I heat up a scented candle and settle into a lucid dream A dream where I am fallin' and falling for an eternity I hear a single voice it's circling round like a bird of prey Scream at the top of my lungs I yearn that it was Someone else's reality I need love, soon Life can be hard when you lose your mind Even harder when you give away your friend Now I lay here over analysing everything Oh It's cold, cold, cold in this bed of mine

Humming to the beat of the ocean it's taken me closer Open water, waves and sky scrapers making me homesick Inbetween the city and sea feeling vunerable Oh I'm gunning for a point in the distance acting on instinct See it written in the sky and in the distant light In the middle of a wild, unforgettable night Look to the captain for a sign take to the limit Into the city toward the tower lit up like a fire Hold my hand brother don't let it go Weather this storm I can't do it alone Pull me back I'm I man overboard Hold my hand brother don't let it go Waiting in the wings of an eagle he's leading me closer Listen to his call like religion believe in his notion Following the fleet to freedom, this is the moment Momentum is the greatest of friends defend its like it an infant See it written in the sky and in the distant light In the middle of a wild, unforgettable night Look to the captain for a sign take to the limit Into the city toward the tower lit up like a fire Hold my hand brother don't let it go Weather this storm I can't do it alone Pull me back I'm I man overboard Hold my hand brother don't let it go Hold onto me Don't let me go Golden glow ahead

Sad/Hope 03:52
t's gonna be a long while, til I find myself an oar And my little life boats taking on water Sink a little every hour, I'm miles upon miles from the shore This is Sad/Hope I'm holding onto There are no ropes that I belong to Decided my nerves are better overboard This is Sad/Hope It's gonna be a strong southerly blowing me closer to the storm My only armour is what I was born with I'll baton down the little I own, and hone in on the hurricane that I'm gunning for This is Sad/Hope that I'm holding onto There are no ropes that I belong to Decided my nerves are better overboard This is Sad/Hope I'm ready now Go on and throw me your worst I can take it all In my stride This is Sad/Hope I'm holding onto There are no ropes that I belong to Decided my nerves are better overboard This is Sad/Hope

Hallelujah 03:58
I lift your dress, up over your head And lay you down, down onto the bed Then kiss your neck and listen to you breathe I sense the heat, I know just what you need Oh its building Hallelujah I hardly know ya But I can't ignore that I'm fallin' for ya Oh you let me in, we're moving in unison You scratch so hard it hurts, but I don't even care This room is spinning wild, but I feel in control We are down to the wire now, all else just falls Oh can you feel it now Hallelujah I hardly know ya But I can't ignore that I'm fallin' for ya The room is light, your head is on my chest Our clothes are everywhere, your sleeping is all I hear My memory has faded, but I know that we made it Spend the day in bed, getting acquainted Oh this is the happiest moment that I can recall x 4
