Hate that I change just like the weather Wish I was better like a bright blue sky Hate that I change just like the weather Wish I was better like a bright blue sky I understand in every way Why you've no place to place your faith I understand in every way Why you've no place to place your faith Hate that I change just like the weather Wish I was better like a bright blue sky Hate that I change just like the weather Wish I was better like a bright blue sky I understand in every way Why you've no place to place your faith Hate that I change just like the weather Wish I was better like a bright blue sky Oh I try and I try and I try Every summer Every summer We keep it distant but close We keep it close to our chest I wanted something more You wanted something less We keep it distant but close We keep it close to our chest I wanted something more You wanted nothing more of this

We left at night like we were spies A bus to train with sleepy eyes We left a note for those to know Won't wait for sunset Won't wait for sunset The bus smelled of foreign skin Places we had never been Your hand in mine, the city lights We're almost We're almost home Home Home Home With songs like this one Songs like this one You and I are safe You and I are safe With songs like this one Songs like this one You and I are You and I are home Home Home Home If you just stay here Stay with me dear I promise you a better place I promise you a better place I promise you a better place A better place We left at night like we were spies A bus to train with sleepy eyes We left a note for those to know It's always summer It's always summer here

You are all I need now You are all I need now You are everything now You found your way inside, how? I have so much fear now I have so much fear now Cuz you are everything now You caught me with my guard down I'm showing friends your picture Showing friends your picture (everywhere I go) I am like a junkie With a new addiction (a delicate line I've never known) I know this is danger I know this is danger (I can feel the under ..) But I can't stop my heart From being such a cancer (.. tow) I'll keep my hands in the car (til I know where you are, where you are) I'll keep my hands in the car (til I know where you are) Cuz I can't take it if we can't get far (til I know where you are, where you are) Is this what I need to protect my heart? I'll keep my hands in the car I'll keep my hands in the car

TV Set 05:26
Leave me alone, I wanna be alone I'm better off on my own I have always been this way It's your decision if you decide to stay You can try to pull me offsides You always try, you always try I wish to God that you were meant To be as simple as a TV set Oh oh It's easy enough cuz you always try Cuz I have a line and you have a line I wish to God that I was meant To be as simple as a TV set Oh oh We'll all fall down, we'll all hit the ground In just a little while, little while We'll all fall down, we'll all hit the ground In just a little while, little while In a little while oh oh oh oh In a little while oh oh oh oh In a little while oh oh oh oh In a little while oh oh oh oh

Stars 06:34
We don't see the stars We don't see the stars Anymore, anymore, anymore We don't see the stars We don't see the stars Anymore, anymore We don't believe it hurts We don't believe it hurts When they die, when they die, when they die We don't believe it hurts We don't believe it hurts When they die, when they die What I am afraid of Is the end of the world that she's made of What I am afraid of Is the end of the world that she's made of Keep my Vivienne safe Keep my Vivienne safe Vivienne safe Vivienne safe Vivienne Blankets and sweet dreams And pillows full of things And melodies that you sing Are beautiful, beautiful to me What I am afraid of Is the end of the world that she's made of What I am afraid of Is the end of the world that she's made of Keep my Vivienne safe Keep my Vivienne safe Vivienne safe Vivienne safe Vivienne

If my heart was on a clock And you could just make it stop Would you? Timing is your device I will take no advice From you Hate and spite is where you live Hate and spite is where you live It's true Lost inside a frequency Static and sonar bleeds You Transmit only what you fear Transmit it to me my dear You Aimlessly in the skies Aimlessly lost inside of you Are just cutting out Stop! Stop! Please, softly Stop! Stop! Please, softly If my heart was on a clock And you could just make it stop Would you? Stop! Stop! Please, softly Stop! Stop! Please, softly
