souvenir
04:22

|

i look you straight in the eye
and tell you what i have feared
the secret that i've held dear
for half my life
you meet the barrage with grace
the valour to stand your ground
without feeling honour bound
to make things right
and as the veil falls
it moves, it breaks like silver
worn for a life, a souvenir
when we wake up
a clear reminder
we made it out
we broke our armour in faith
back when i was so young
a bright overloaded gun
i worked it out
i let the veil fall
it moves, it breaks like silver
worn for a life, a souvenir
when we wake up
a clear reminder
we made it out

i cut you open i
had to begin to understand
your form and function the
colour that shifts beneath my hand
when you sing to me
of a family
i put my heart on the line
you are a muse to me
all my judgement has come to harm
with no advisory
you simply silenced the alarm
you played my heart
like the government
you overfurnished the lie
now pick up a lonely heart
the sweet discovery
how i surrendered to your hand
all lies and subterfuge
yet i still stand
and if you'll sing to me now
of a family
i'll take my heart across the line
now pick up a lonely heart
and look how it beats for two
now pick up a lonely heart
and look how it beats for you

all of thee above

when i fell in love
you and i, we were strangers
and all of thee above
turned their heads and didn't see the danger
now you just go on
casually avoiding the question
did i do something wrong?
how are you accountable to no-one
why? why should i stay and never learn
to keep my head above water?
stars will not align
planets will not light the way before you
you say the angels lie
but angels never walked a mile beside you
now all of thee above
never had a handle on the problem
it's hard to be of consequence
when you're an imaginary notion
now, come take my hand and we'll both learn
to keep our heads above water

we light fire
03:30
|
|

we light fire to not forget
we fall too easy, afraid of our last regret
send the light out into the dark
to cast the shadows away from a wounded heart
we light fire for the tears in our eyes
we light fire waiting for the sunrise
we don't know that it's always gonna be this way
but we're here today
we light fire in communion
another year in a circle around the sun
all alone we escape somehow
a subtle movement, the distance from here 'til now
we light fire for the tears in our eyes
we light fire waiting for the sunrise
we don't know that it's always gonna feel this way
but we're here today
with our hearts aflame
all i want
in this life
is a light
to relieve me from the cold
and the dark
'til the dawn
you cool my head
in the heat
of the day
and you lead me through the night
and the calm
and the storm
we light fire
we light fire
we light fire
we light fire
we light fire for the tears in our eyes
we light fire waiting for the sunrise
we don't know that we're always gonna feel this way
but we're here today
with our hearts aflame

burning cars

there's nothing to it
we'll sail through it
we'll lock arms
we'll burn cars
if it comes to it
we'll drive onwards
we'll not cower
it's in our grasp
stand steadfast
and we draw power
and we're here tonight
standing in the rain
if you'll hold your fire
long enough to hear
we'll be one again
and we'll heal tonight
over your shoulder
we crept close
no more jokes
no blind hoax
we've grown older
and we see light
and we heal
and we heal tonight
as we're standing in the rain
if you hold your fire
long enough to hear
we'll be one again
and we'll heal tonight
holding vigil in the rain
if you'll hold your fire
hold your tongue
hold your tithe
stop your emissary line
sending words that we can't use any more
hollow prose
won't disguise
shifting enemy lines
accountability is gold
and we heal tonight
as we're standing in the rain
if you hold your fire
long enough to hear
we'll be one again
and we'll heal tonight
holding vigil in the rain
if you'll hold your fire
go on hold your fire
we can heal

centre of the sun – no light, no light
quicker than the stars shine out, burn through
i breathe out with you
this life we lead straight through
middle of the day – we learn, we try
hollow of the moon – i burn like you
forever never lies before us
and i breathe out with you
this life we lead straight through
quicker than the stars shine out, it’s through
centre of the sun, hollow of the moon
quicker than the stars
quicker than the stars shine out, burn through

chelsea, it's just a lonely night
in only four hours we'll see dawn
the day will come, there may be heavy clouds
but above the haze there's still sun
in a wide open sky
there's a slow turning moon
shifting the tides
shaping our lives
from your small golden hand
runs a line through this land
connecting our hearts
from ending to start
listen, my love, the rain falling out in the yard
will marry the sound of the softest drum
in a wide open sky
there's a slow turning moon
shifting the tides
shaping our lives
from your small shaking hand
runs a line that cuts straight through this land
from your heart to mine
and backward through time
we all play our part
from ending to start
chelsea, it's just the loneliest night
in four little hours we'll see dawn
