Reach Out 03:00
Hey kid, whatcha lookin’ at? Hey kid, why ya talkin’ back? I was in the background I was in the background Wishing you would reach out Try to make it right now I’m wishing you would reach out With one hand Pull me closer now ‘Cuz I am reachin’ out Hey kid, whatcha lookin’ at? Hey kid, why ya talkin’ back? Every single morning I’ve been healed But I’ve been down I’ve been right around the corner But I’m afraid of reachin’ out And if I show without a warning Would you care that I’m around? And if I pull myself together Maybe you could try And reach out for me Reach out for me I know I need you right now I know I need you maybe I should Maybe I should reach out Baby I’ve been beat down I’m hoping you would reach out With one hand Pull me closer now With one hand Pull me closer now Had it with the background Had it with the background Maybe you could reach out Only wanna find out If you could be all of me You could be everything You could be all of me You could hold on to me I don’t wanna ever Have to pull myself away Hey kid, whatcha lookin’ at? Hey kid, why ya talkin’ back? Every single morning I’ve been healed But I’ve been down I’ve been right around the corner But I’m afraid of reachin’ out And if I show without a warning Would you care that I’m around? And if I pull myself together Maybe you could try And reach out for me Reach out for me Pull me closer now ‘Cuz I am reaching out Hey kid, whatcha lookin’ at? Pull me closer now ‘Cuz I am reaching out Pull me closer now ‘Cuz I am reaching out Hey kid, whatcha lookin’ at? Hey kid, why ya talkin’ back? Hey kid, whatcha lookin’ at? Hey kid, why ya talkin’ back?

I don’t understand it How can you tell me We’re being too dramatic We’re livin’ in a dream It’s my quintessential existential Crisis of the day Hit that automatic restart And push it away And I’ve been going through the motions You know playing the game I hit that automatic restart And try it again Been feeling So low I fear the doubt I’m climbing out I’m worried but the time is now I don’t understand it How can you tell me We’re being too dramatic We’re livin’ in a dream How is every single person Not thinking the same Man, it feels like we’ve been Hit by a tidal wave And we’ve been going through the motions But we’re all too afraid We hit that automatic restart And push it away Been feeling So low I fear the doubt I’m climbing out I’m worried but the time is now I don’t understand it How can you tell me We’re being too dramatic We’re livin’ in a dream We’re livin’ in a dream And late one night You’re gonna see The stars align We can’t agree (we’re livin’ in a dream) And late one night You’re gonna see You and I We can’t agree (we’re livin’ in a dream) I don’t understand it How can you tell me We’re being too dramatic We’re livin’ in a dream

Luna 01:28
One day I’ll wake up And I won’t know anyone And I will wonder What I missed while I was gone I’m fairly certain I’m just trying to explain My nervous heart That misses home A little more each day How will I remember Each little face? Oh no Oh no How will I remember Each little face Each day
5.
Will I come apart everyday? Will I always over complicate? I’m a stranger in my own skin I’ve been trying to find my way again When the timing feels typical There’s a strange little subliminal Voice in my head Saying don’t you make it difficult On yourself now I don’t know where I’m going Lost in my in my own head Carry me now I’m broken I’m lost in my own head It’s like the world keeps bringing me down Each day feels a little harder It’s like the world keeps bringing me down Go on, try just a little longer When a house on a hill awaits But I can’t quite float away So I fall into the flat again Be easy I am delicate I don’t know where I’m going Lost in my in my own head Carry me now I’m broken I’m lost in my own head It’s like the world keeps bringing me down Each day feels a little harder It’s like the world keeps bringing me down Go on, try just a little longer Try just a little longer I don’t know where I’m going Lost in my in my own head Carry me now I’m broken I’m lost in my own head It’s like the world keeps bringing me down Each day feels a little harder It’s like the world keeps bringing me down Go on, try just a little longer Try just a little longer

Don’t worry like you used to Sleeping at night One at a time Saying I’m Trying not lose you Letting it ride I’ll be on time Baby I don’t know Where to go Baby I don’t know Where to go Don’t worry like you used to Sleeping at night One at a time Saying I’m Trying not lose you Letting it ride I’ll be on time Baby I don’t know Where to go Baby I don’t know Where to go And now that I’m home Let go I’ll be on time Nothing to hide A doubt in your mind Now that I’m home Don’t worry You oughta know I’ll be on time Nothing to hide A doubt in your mind Now that I’m home Don’t worry You oughta know I’ll be on time Nothing to hide A doubt in your mind Now that I’m home Let go I’ll be on time I’ll be on time Baby don’t worry

Close to Me 03:24
I feel it coming Can’t sleep until the sun comes out Last week I’m on a one way south And I say Tonight We’re both running Loudspeaker playing Won’t Back Down Long winter but we’re climbing out And I say If you care Swing back Swing high Swing low Step into the water Let it take control Do you wanna know? Where we’re going Do you wanna know? Where we’re gonna be Do you wanna know? I will follow you I will keep you close to me Do you wanna know? There’s no way of knowing Do you wanna know? What our young hearts really need Do you wanna know? I will follow you I will keep you close to me I feel it coming Loudspeaker with the windows down Does Anybody See You Out? And I say Don’t turn around Just turn my way I’m steppin’ out A change of pace now You and I Are finding our own way Can you hear me when I say Do you wanna know? Where we’re going Do you wanna know? Where we’re gonna be Do you wanna know? I will follow you I will keep you close to me Do you wanna know? There’s no way of knowing Do you wanna know? What our young hearts really need Do you wanna know? I will follow you I will keep you close to me Close to me Close to me I will follow you I will keep you close to me I will wait for you today Again, again, again And always I will wait for you today I will give you everything I will give you everything Do you wanna know? Where we’re going Do you wanna know? Where we’re gonna be Do you wanna know? I will follow you I will keep you close to me Do you wanna know? There’s no way of knowing Do you wanna know? What our young hearts really need Do you wanna know? I will follow you I will keep you close to me Close to me Close to me I will follow you I will keep you close to me

We go Wherever you wanna go Won’t remember the times When you were feeling low I know Everyone you’ve ever known Don’t believe me Then try just to let it go Ah this time I can’t resist I try live a life without Consequence But everytime I come around And try again I end up leaving ‘Cuz it’s all pretend Yes I know Everything I need to know Don’t believe ya But can’t seem to let it go Oh this time I can’t resist I try to make it all Less obvious But I don’t think you understand I don’t believe you I don’t believe you I don’t believe you I don’t think you understand I don’t believe you I don’t believe you I don’t believe you We go Wherever you wanna go Won’t remember the times When you were feeling low I know Everyone you’ve ever known Don’t believe me Then try just to let it go Ah this time I can’t resist I try live a life without Consequence But everytime I come around And try again I end up leaving ‘Cuz it’s all pretend Yes I don’t think you understand I don’t believe you I don’t believe you I don’t believe you I don’t think you understand I don’t believe you I don’t believe you I don’t believe you I don’t think you understand We go Wherever you wanna go I noticed When I’m gone The time just moves along Picture myself Picture perfect Bad timing It was worth it High stakes And I chase this again Why can’t I And why I always End up in the same spot Then I try it again In the same spot So I try it again This much is true There’ll be fire in the fields And the field’s filled with doom And I don’t know what it means To be here I’m here I’m here And I’m staring at you Feel the fire in the background In the middle of the night now I’m only here for a minute I’m only here for a minute Feel the fire in the background In the middle of the night now I’m only here for a minute I’m only here for a minute I told you When I’m gone Late night here Well just move along I told you that I’m Gone (Fire in the back!) I’ll (Fire in the back!) Move on (Fire in the back!) Our love is strong (Fire in the back!) Moving on (Fire in the back!) Only here for a minute… (Fire in the back!) Only here for a minute… (Fire in the back!)

Panic 03:44
Sunrise Pouring over me Pouring over me New light Keep me company Keep me company I need to let go Because I can’t quite Shake out all my fears Shake out all my fears I’m losing control I don’t feel right Take me out of here Take me out of here I let the panic in Every single morning I leave home I need a warning In again In again I let it creep back in I don’t wanna earn it I don’t feel like I deserve it And I let it win I let it win I let it win Every single morning I leave home I need a warning Over me Yeah over me I let it win I don’t wanna earn it I don’t feel like I deserve it I let it win I let it win I’m stepping outside for some sympathy Gimme sympathy Just maybe I’ll find who I used to be Who I used to be I let go Because I can’t quite shake out All my fears Shake out all my fears Take me outta here Take me outta here I let the panic in Every single morning I leave home I need a warning In again In again I let it creep back in I don’t wanna earn it I don’t feel like I deserve it And I let it win I let it win I let it win Every single morning I leave home I need a warning Over me Yeah over me I let it win I don’t wanna earn it I don’t feel like I deserve it I let it win I let it win Every single morning I leave home I need a warning I don’t wanna look down I don’t wanna find out Every single morning I leave home I need a warning I don’t wanna know how I don’t wanna know how it ends Every single morning I leave home I need a warning In again In again I let it creep back in I don’t wanna earn it I don’t feel like I deserve it And I let it win I let it win I let it win Every single morning I leave home I need a warning Over me Yeah over me I let it win I don’t wanna earn it I don’t feel like I deserve it I let it win I let it win

Present 01:00
And now that we’re here Make it count Make it clear I am well I am well I am well When the time Disappeared I was out Wasn’t here I was worried And blinded by night I was gone Went away Just a shell In a place Where I never could see my own home Where I never could see my own home

Daylight 03:33
Lying wide awake My mind can only race And all that I can say Is do not look away Because I don’t wanna stay In a heart that only aches I’m trying hard to ride it out But right about now I want it to Slow down Try to find a little space I want it to Slow down But I can’t wait I can’t look away Can’t hide it in Stay low So I try again It’s a new wave Invite it in It’s a new wave And I can’t wait I can’t look away The morning’s feeling fake The plastic hearts won’t break You’re lying to escape From everything you say Because I don’t wanna stay In a heart that only aches I’m trying hard to ride it out But right about now I want it to Slow down Try to find a little space I want it to Slow down But I can’t wait I can’t look away Can’t hide it in Stay low So I try again It’s a new wave Invite it in It’s a new wave And I can’t wait I can’t look away Can’t hide it in Stay low So I try again It’s a new wave Invite it in It’s a new wave And I can’t wait I can’t look away

It's Real! 05:07
We can’t escape We can’t push our problems All down the drain We dream until they’re gone And then they’re here to stay And I could try to run Don’t want to complicate This matter ‘Cuz there’s nowhere left to hide There’s nowhere left to hide People in every state The happiness-depression pendulum Will stay Swinging back and forth We cannot concentrate We close our eyes Tomorrow It’ll be the same But that’s just how we try to disappear We fear, we fear Maybe none of this is real It’s Real! Don’t wanna sound dramatic But I need to feel Like I could dance these fears Right out the window, dear We’re always moving backwards As we say We say Why do we live this way? It’s Real! Don’t wanna sound dramatic (Why do we live this way?) But I need to feel Like I could dance these fears (Why do we live this way?) Right out the window, dear We’re always moving backwards As we say We say Why do we live this way? We can’t relate Everytime I come around I feel the weight Livin’ that picture perfect life Go on and demonstrate You’re always on the run Don’t wanna complicate This matter ‘Cuz there’s no way I could find A place for me To cry away The pain The doubt The greed I’m feeling all this weight I can’t believe There’s nowhere left to hideout And that’s just how I try to disappear I fear I fear Maybe none of this is real It’s Real! Don’t wanna sound dramatic But I need to feel Like I could dance these fears Right out the window, dear We’re always moving backwards As we say We say Why do we live this way? It’s Real! Don’t wanna sound dramatic (Why do we live this way?) But I need to feel Like I could dance these fears (Why do we live this way?) Right out the window, dear We’re always moving backwards As we say We say Why do we live this way? Why do we live this way? Why do we live this way? Why do we live this way? Why do we... Real! It’s Real! Don’t wanna sound dramatic (Why do we live this way?) But I need to feel Like I could dance these fears (Why do we live this way?) Right out the window, dear We’re always moving backwards As we say We say Why do we live this way?

You wanted a warning An honest heart reporting Back to get you through All of your trials You’re losing your patience We’re back in Kansas pacing Around the room you lived in As a child And I can hardly stand here And force myself to smile And tell you that we’re okay And we should just move along Well the hardest part of giving up Is knowing when we’ve had enough And I can’t tell you when it’s time to leave That feeling when we’re giving in The time has come We can’t pretend And I can’t tell you When it’s time to leave I purposely painted A picture of the changes Magnifying every single lie I’m openly saying Our history of aching Isn’t how we have to let this die I’ll try to make it even next time... The hardest part of giving up Is knowing when we’ve had enough And I can’t tell you when it’s time to leave That feeling when we’re giving in The time has come We can’t pretend And I can’t tell you When it’s time to leave It’s time to leave Why don’t you see? Why don’t you see? It’s time to leave While you’re in need Will you listen to me? It’s time to leave Time to leave You’ll see The hardest part of giving up Is knowing when we’ve had enough And I can’t tell you when it’s time to leave That feeling when we’re giving in The time has come We can’t pretend And I can’t tell you When it’s time to leave It’s time to leave
