Pilot
I've been killing time
Killing so much time, does that make me a murderer?
Cause I've got the plague for these 30 days
Stay ten feet away and I'll just kill the time away
Guess I needed space
Needed space so much, light years are not enough
But I'm bored of it, it doesn't kiss like you
Now I'm back again, looks like I've done a light year loop
I'm riding it out
Like I'm dragged through the desert
I'm riding it out
Like a prison scentence
And when I look back
I can say I survived and
I was a passenger,
I was a passenger
Now I'm the pilot
Things are changing shape
Changing back again, my eyes are adjusting
What rare medicine have I found at last?
Cause this antidote can lock my baggage in the past
I'm riding it out
Like I'm dragged through the desert
I'm riding it out
Like a prison scentence
And when I look back
I can say I survived and
I was a passenger,
I was a passenger
Now I'm the pilot
I can reach the horizon
I can bring the whole sky down
Let it go and we're flying
I was a passenger
Now I'm a pilot
I'm riding it out
Like I'm dragged through the desert
I'm riding it out
Like a prison scentence
And when I look back
I can say I survived and
I was a passenger,
I was a passenger
Now I'm the pilot

I'd Be Lying
Is it too soon to find out what I'm looking for?
or is it too late to find out what I'm searching for?
time after time I've been insecure
'round and 'round, we've been here before
I feel like crying everytime I see your face
I feel like dying everytime you walk away
but I'd be lying if I said I didn't want you to stay
Looking to you while we slowly slip away
so hard to lose when your whole world is at stake
Drifting apart more for everyday
I can feel you close in a distant way
time after time I've been insecure
'round and 'round, we've been here before
I feel like crying everytime I see your face
I feel like dying everytime you walk away
but I'd be lying if I said I didn't want you to stay
I'd be lying if I said I didn't want you to stay
I'd be lying if I said I didn't want you to stay
I'd be lying if I said I didn't want you to stay
I'd be lying if I said I didn't want you to stay
I feel like crying everytime I see your face
I feel like dying everytime you walk away
but I'd be lying if I said I didn't want you to stay

Head Over Heels
Everybody knows you're the only one
who doesn't have a clue about what's going on
it is time to break, to break bad
I'm emerald green, you're indigo blue
everybody syas I'd look good on you
we could paint the town, paint the town red
Oh, I'm head over heels
Oh, I'm head over heels in love
Oh, I'm right over here head over heels
Oh my gosh
I threw all my coins in your wishing well
now I've got no fortune left to tell
You're wasting your love on someone else
I know that love's a dog from hell
Wouldn't it be fun if you'd come around
together you and I could beat the devil down
just the two of us killing time
I could be your mistress all dressed up in black
once you walk in, there's no turning back
step into the light, it's alright
Oh, I'm head over heels
Oh, I'm head over heels in love
Oh, I'm right over here head over heels
Oh my gosh
I threw all my coins in your wishing well
now I've got no fortune left to tell
You're wasting your love on someone else
I know that love's a dog from hell
You're wasting your love on someone else
I know that love's a dog from hell

Cavalry
Go on send in the cavalry
horses running over me
won't stop me anyway
from thinking about you
Go on put up a wall of steel
arms pointing right at me
won't stop me anyway
from thinking about you
I don't mind the distance, I'm the travelling kind
so many complications in a stray line
and all concequences will have their own time
Go on send in the cavalry
horses running over me
won't stop me anyway
from thinking about you
Go on put up a wall of steel
arms pointing right at me
won't stop me anyway
from thinking about you
Waiting for the moments that hide behind the pines
is only gonna keep you unsatisfied
it's so hard to change whe you've got your own mind
all I keep on thinking about is you
you
Go on send in the cavalry
horses running over me
won't stop me anyway
from thinking about you
Go on put up a wall of steel
arms pointing right at me
won't stop me anyway
from thinking about you

INTO THE BLUE
In the darkness in the desert
there's nothing to fill the void
All your demons show their faces
in your dreams, ready to destroy
For a second I could feel it
but it slipped through my fingers like sand
Help me gather the pieces
Send these broken flowers in for repair
When did I become so jaded?
I wanna try but it keeps fading
into, fade into the blue
Roses bloom when they're supposed to
I've got thorns too hard to cut through
oh, fade into the blue
I'm your private Mona Lisa
that you try to understand
But I don't even know my own mind
If I can't read it, nobody can
When did I become so jaded?
I wanna try but it keeps fading
into, fade into the blue
Roses bloom when they're supposed to
I've got thorns too hard to cut through
oh, fade into the blue
I wanna stumble into somebody's arms
forget how I got so cynical
I wanna fall but I'm not able
Maybe one day I'll be able
I wanna stumble into somebody's arms
forget how I got so cynical
I wanna fall but I'm not able
Love you drank me under the table
When did I become so jaded?
I wanna try but it keeps fading
into, fade into the blue
Roses bloom when they're supposed to
I've got thorns too hard to cut through
oh, fade into the blue
fade into the blue
fade into the blue
In the darkness in the desert
there's nothing to fill the void

SOUL TRAVELLER
Soul traveller, I must have known you an eternity
Soul traveller, set new directions to this lucid dream
Soul traveller, your eyes would be hard not to recognize
Soul traveller, now I’m on holding on for dear life
Nobody can understand how deep we go
nobody can understand where this river flows
but we’ve been here before
Nobody can can see it but we’re intertwined
nobody can understand
My oh my, we travel in time
Soul traveller
Soul traveller
Go searching, look in the mirror, tell me what you see
souls merging into some kind of future, kind of destiny
Nobody can understand how deep we go
nobody can understand where this river flows
but we’ve been here before
Nobody can can see it but we’re intertwined
nobody can understand
My oh my, we travel in time
Soul traveller
Soul traveller
What’s happening to me?
to them i only know you since last week

ATOMS
Hey it’s been too long, gimme a call
Everything has turned to nothing at all
We used to be so close, no space in between
And now we’re getting lost, chasing our dreams
Don’t you know
Out of the blue
Storms will break
And hearts will too
It’s changing me, it's changing you
Even atoms split in two
So hold on to me
I’ll hold on to you
I can read your mind better than mine
There are things that won’t change with time
What a wasted heart stuck in the past
Just because you got it now doesn’t mean its gonna last
Don’t you know
Out of the blue
Storms will break
And hearts will too
It’s changing me, it's changing you
Even atoms split in two
So hold on to me
I’ll hold on to you
Hold on to me
Hold on to you
Even atoms split in two

What a Waste

WHAT A WASTE
You light another cigarette
the way you used to do
we were never gonna break
until we broke in two
I'm not gonna hide
not gonna lie about anything
It's not the same
cos people change
and life ain't standing still, you know
You never go, you never go for it
you just wanna keep
just wanna keep me for a little bit
Oh oh
if you want me how come you let me go?
you’re an ocean away
Honey what a waste
Oh oh
if you need me why don’t you tell me so?
too little too late
Honey what a waste
You ask me if I’ve met some one
and what i did last night
well do you really wanna know,
or do you wanna pick a fight?
I’m not gonna hide
not gonna lie about anything
Did you think I’d wait?
Count the days?
Life ain’t standing still, you know
You never go, you never go for it
you just wanna keep
just wanna keep me for a little bit
Oh oh
if you want me how come you let me go?
you’re an ocean away
Honey what a waste
Oh oh
if you need me why don’t you tell me so?
too little too late
Honey what a waste
You’re down in a hole, down in a hole in the ground
you’re letting yourself, letting yourself down
Too many things, too many things in the way
of taking a leap, taking a leap of faith
you’re an ocean away
Honey what a waste
Oh oh
if you want me how come you let me go?
you’re an ocean away
Honey what a waste
Oh oh
if you need me why don’t you tell me so?
too little too late
Honey what a waste

WAITING FOR THE WAR
The ground below is cracking open
as we are dancing in slowmotion
oh we're living such beautiful lies
oh apocalypse in disguise
We’re acting like it isn’t broken
I love you so much I’m almost choking
oh these shimmering golden lights
oh make it feel like we’re alright
Throw another dollar at a dancer
put another cherry on the cake
say a little prayer like you mean it
with a smile on your face
You’re walking right into the line of fire
don't forget to your lipstick on
sing a lullaby for your sweetheart
while we are waiting for the war
Smile for me darling, go get ready
at least we'll die while looking pretty
oh we got everything that we wanted
oh but we live in a house that’s haunted
Throw another dollar at a dancer
put another cherry on the cake
say a little prayer like you mean it
with a smile on your face
You’re walking right into the line of fire
don't forget to your lipstick on
sing a lullaby for your sweetheart
while we are waiting for the war

Half a Heart
Did someone change my molecules?
cause i don’t feel the way i used to
You must have had a revelation
but my DNA, it keeps on changing
You just want an endless summer
following my footsteps in the snow
You just wanna keep the karma
why is it your spirit lingers on?
I don't want half a heart
cause half a heart is half a life, is half a soul
Don't want half a heart
half a heart from half a man
How can i change the core of you?
oh how you never follow through
think you’ve discovered who you are
I didn’t hear the apple fall...
You just want an endless summer
following my footsteps in the snow
You just wanna keep the karma
why is it your spirit lingers on?
I don't want half a heart
cause half a heart is half a life, is half a soul
Don't want half a heart
half a heart from half a man
Half a heart
Half a heart

Great Pretender
When did our foundation get so shaky?
China falling to the floor and breaking at my feet
this fortress used to be my comfort
it turned into a dusty dream of some sort
What is left to defend
when all we do is pretend?
I was blinded by your light
I thought we were doing alright
How can something so strong turn so tender?
Now I know you were a great pretender
How could something so strong turn so tender?
Now I know you were a great pretender
I should have seen the walls were crumbling
you pulled the rug and now I’m tumbling down the hill
Unshielded and unarmed I stood there
but things like that don’t come from outta nowhere
Now all you say is 'give me time'
but what is there to decide?
I was blinded by your light
thought we were doing alright
How can something so strong turn so tender?
Now I know you were a great pretender
How could something so strong turn so tender?
Now I know you were a great pretender
