LYRICS

Ceases to Beat

Lend me your heart
For a while
You don't use it anyhow
And mine is fallin apart
I think you mind
When I stare
I can't help it anyway
You know I'm after your heart
Stars in my eyes
Are they tears?
I can't find the words to say
I want to stay by your side
If you say no
I don't mind
I can wait until its clear
The love you're trying to hide
Lend me your strength
And your will
Your composure
What are you willing to spare?
Give me a hand
And your arms
And your feet
You can have mine its fine
I know how to share
If you release the pressure
This wound continues to bleed
My heart, it ceases to beat

Glow

When the pink and yellow daisies

Are lining up to meet me

Kinda looking like a crime scene

Shining on a prom queen

When you look out at the city

Tell me what do you see

Do you think about the laundry

Or going on a journey

Looking for the glitter

A glow that only I see

If it’s looking the same

Maybe I’ll change my name

Maybe spin until i’m dizzy

Then it really hits me

If I could drink up the sky

Clear the clouds from my eyes

Don’t think this world could ever hold me

We look for the glitter

The Glow that only we see

Never wanting to change

We remember our names

And then even if we trip up

There’s a ground below us

We can fight through the pain

Till the end of this game

Because you know we’ll never give up

Shine, Shine

Yes I’m daring you to

Throw your crown into the river

And the streets are lined with silver

Maybe its a fantasy

But I believe we can

Take this dream and run to reality

When the blue and purple roses

Are lining up to tease us

And you look just like a princess

Cleaning up a big mess

Keep stoking the flame, keep it safe from the rain

And keep it going til you can't stop

Shrug off the shame with the world taking aim

Don’t you ever let this let this bubble pop

Fight through the pain til the end of this game

Because you know will never give up

Remember why you love this

Remember what you dream is

Remember why you love this,  never let go

Wolves

Get back my rhythm

I look back twice then start to panic

Am I alone now

They smell my fear. It's automatic

Run through the forest

Hope they didn't see me falter

Can see my driveway

Just need to make it to my front door

 

And I wonder

Did this happen to you too....

Happen to you too

 

If I had been there

I don't know what'd I do to help you

The trail I'm leaving

Nobody coming to my rescue

And my heart beating

I look back once a shadow fleeting

They’re closin in now

I think that I can hear them breathing

And I wonder

Did this happen to you too....

Happen to you too

Oranges

blood pours out from your sides

when you are speaking from your mind

popped cells like oranges

lungs filling up

breath getting shorter

someone seems so assured

while winter brings ice to the beaches

warm hugs stay on the mind

how much do you stray from the course now

 

stray from the line of

stray from the line

stray from the line of sight my dear

Stare at the ceiling

Open the blinds

Reach for the time that passes by

 

Sun floods, the light makes you blind

After the nights reign has ended

Veins swell, pulse changes pace

Left with the taste

Will you decide to

 

Break from the circle

Straighten your spine

Try to ignore the fear you're feeling

Stray from the line of

stray from the line

stray from the line of sight…

 

Now you’re safe and secure

Watch as the flames burn out the poison

Cold hands rest on your face

Fringe and the lace

Red and violet

 

Loves toll stripped from the rind

Life is a branch twisted in this vine

Your choice,  step through the gate

Challenge you fate, or let it bind you

Know when to hide and

Know when to fight

Know when its time to end this cycle

Stray from the line of

stray from the line

stray from the line of sight…

Make it Real

And it’s fantastic, not a fantasy

Creating alternate reality

Magic of the mask, blankets insecurity

A play of wild impossibility   

Shoulder to shoulder

Ready to take on anything

You’re so much stronger  

Than the neon monsters

Legends that you love

 

The air gets colder

Your blood grows hotter than the sun

Daydream defender

You’re the hero that never surrenders

 

Dust from the grind that wants to bury me

It’s who’s inside that maybe you can’t see

With ultra violet eyes and hair defying gravity

I can be a mystery

 

Shoulder to shoulder

Ready to take on anything

You’re so much stronger

Than the neon monsters

Legends that you love

 

The air gets colder  

Your blood grows hotter than the sun

Daydream defender

You’re the hero that never surrenders

 

The plastic soldier standing next to you

My fairy princess wrapped up in hot glue

Please don’t ever change

It’d be a shame to see your flame go out

 

Shoulder to shoulder

Hair spray, feather and faux fur

Perfect pretender

You’re a sparkle flaunter

A dazzling golden knight

 

Later we’ll wonder

What spell this is we’re under

Whatever weather

We can make it real when we’re together

Mauve

I feel the weight of the time it takes

Getting from one to the end of it….all

I’m losing my grip again

Can’t seem to hold on to the fading light, floats away, I’m drifting


 

I hear it break, feel it crumblin'

The water will shake, it will brim and then fall

I have all the medicine

I have all the tools that I need to grow but somehow I’m shrinking

Never Look Back

It’s falling down with a flash

Tied to a glimmer of glory

It’s hiding under a mask

Begging to tell you the story

Yea, keep on telling me that

Yea, say just live in the moment

I know it’s probably true

Just wish I knew what it all meant

 

And when they’re telling you to never look back

never look back yeah

Might leave me black and blue so never look back, never look back

 

Sometimes the smile is a mask

Sometimes I’m better at hiding

There may be times when you ask

That it may seem like I’m lying

Maybe it’s best if I don’t

Open that door for a moment

The future’s coming up fast

Replacing steps that we’ve taken

 

I think I’ve heard you say to never look back

Never look back yea

Might leave me black and blue so never look back, never look back

 

But if it’s pain that’s fillin the grey

Don’t let it fade

Don't let it fade away

 

The tears are welling up fast

I’m graspin back at the past

The tears are welling up fast

I’m looking round for an exit

 

Afraid I'll forget you if I never look back

Never look back yeah

Might leave me black and blue so never look back, never look back

 

And if I hold these thoughts at bay

Get through the day

What did we used to say


 

Can’t let this memory be erased

if I could see your face

I know I could stay

Stay with me inside the dream

 

Can I just be sad today I wanna look back, let me look back

Might leave me black and blue but lemme go...

 

So when they’re telling you to

Never look back, never look back yeah

Might leave you black and blue to never look back, never look back

 

But if it’s pain that’s fillin the grey

Don’t let it fade - Don’t let it fade

But if it’s pain that’s fillin the grey

Don’t let it fade

Don't let it fade away
