MAN OVERBOARD I find myself in this state where lucid longings are trapped inside a stained glass leaving me restless and breathless hoping to wake up when it's over hoping to wake up when it's over I tend to live in the past and wait around for another chance eventhough I know the buttons have been pressed waking up and finding myself sailing off a storm setting things in motion cant I really do anything but hold on? I find myself in this state where I try to realize what I could've done to get me back and then I'm back feeling empty no time to hold your breathe feeling empty waking up and finding myself sailing off a storm setting things in motion cant I really do anything but hold on? memories of the past and struggles of the present and illusions of the future always make me wanna look back find an escape I tend to live in the past and wait around for another chance eventhough I know the buttons have been pressed now to you I surrender father, father to you I surrender to you I surrender

SHOOT TO KILL Who are you to say this the end of the line? never utter a word of who's to blame or you're gonna get it I dont know why you're crying this is what you need to excite, inspire and ignite you know what you should do? take a needle and draw an infinite line coz this time we're never gonna let them take us down all glory comes from the daring to begin so keep fighting Shoot to Kill show us what you got take it from one moment to the next leave no room for regrets every hero has his moments Whatever the struggle back in the saddle taking back our lives Shoot to kill We're never gonna let them take us down our number's up soon when that happens give them hell

Play Pause 03:34
PLAY PAUSE I've been looking for a story worth my time been to places and spaces and everything in between been through tangled bedsheets and torn-up letters never have I been a victim of this till that kiss can't stop singing about it won't stop singing My heart is standing at the edge of a cliff waiting to fall keep my head, keep my head I keep myself locked in I kept myself locked in from this desire oh, desire Rewind, backtrack I've been miscalculating and callous and now I'm off to fix another dirty bed oh, killing time just a little bit faster coz what's the point in staying here if it's you I want so wait, wait a little longer so wait, wait a little longer oh, you came along and I think your story's worth my time worth my time

SLEEPING WITH SECRETS why should we stop don't you think that we're getting carried away in this city full of lights and secrets that we're dying to keep you caught me as I fell of all these secrets built I'll keep this best one for myself Don't be scared, dont be scared It's alright, alright don't you worry bout me having things to say I'm alright, alright all you have to do is ask me What can I do to keep you? what can I do to keep you inside? would I need to make you fall again beneath our city? hear me say it's a shame to keep this good thing going on never letting it see the light of day I'll be the reason of it all stolen moments that would come to make you feel insane the kind you'd want to feel over and over again in this secret the truth of it all I'm stealing words to make me feel you're my addicting contradiction that makes me feel alright Would you believe that? I'll keep you inside

SAILING PAPER SHIPS We've had our let downs sinking at the bottom of this wishing well all mistakes, mishaps take all fall backs We wanted clarity but damn another tragedy sinking at the botttom of this wishing well oh well, we sure as hell ain't gonna get it And I'm sinking slowly now shipwrecked and stranded you're feeling perfectly fine where does this leave me? And I'm sinking slowly now shipwrecked and stranded Shipwrecked and stranded we don't have to die this love is screaming for you to hold me that I won't have to be alone so sit tight, coz nothing has change stay now if you wanna stay or have you been slowly fading away Don't tell me it's over never say never it's not the end this is just beginning this is just beginning we don't have to die

Hearts on our Skin they, they tell me I'm better off I puncture and wound and bleed to me it's a portrait a journey of self discovery to them, that's never really the case how 'bout we sing it while showing it all? these colors are my stories and a riddle for them to unfold dotted lines to find my way back marking crimes to find my way back keep track of time yes, I am different they, they tell me like I'm some kind of dead beat sinner I know what you're thinking it's not their place no they don't news flash to y'all there's a reason why gold doesn't glitter it's for the wanderers not to get lost you see pieces that are strong does not wither but thrusting deep roots just makes it better dotted lines to find my way back marking crimes to find my way back keep track of time yes, I am different these lines are sacred these colors my banners this is us, this is me proud to wear our hearts on our skin beautiful moments kept, every moment seized broken promises, lessons to keep life to welcome and life that leaves yes, this is us, this is me proud to wear our hearts on our skin proud to wear our hearts

WTF 03:46
WTF the curtain's finally closing in on you just a little show of faith no need to try and fight it finally washing off the taste of you in my bed un-remember all the hate counting down the unholy hours of this god-given night every movement of the hand brings about revelations ticking like a time bomb the minute hand is tired it wants to wave less "goodbyes" and more "hellos" no more fighting to get you out of my head to get you out of my head nothing left to think about no more holding on to every single word you said say hello to the day Cant say I didn't wish I had to take it all back and leave all the pieces on the floor thanks for the memories, but i cant do this anymore the curtain's finally closing in on you just a little show of faith no need to try and fight it finally washing off the taste of you in my bed un-remember all the hate pondering over and over and over figure out what's the good in this goodbye words should mean so much more Your actions lie louder than words now im ready to say less goodbyes and more hellos say hello to the day I know it's gonna take me more than one night give me a few years time and I'll be able to remember you, then smile I know it's gonna take me more than one night give me a few years time and I'll be able to reminisce those beautiful lies

Set the Mood 03:29
SET THE MOOD not another word from you not another step back tell me this is not a mistake set the mood right I told myself this is the last time give me your time give me your tongue don't tell me that it's another mistake give me your time give me your tongue don't be afraid of the choices we make told myself that I can't hold this one down told myself that I can't hold this one let's set this place all ablaze come on baby all ablaze come on baby no need for me to whisper brilliant words it's already tempting for us being together now no need to dance another masquerade now that I see told myself that I can't hold this one down told myself that I can't hold this one let's set this place all ablaze come on baby all ablaze come on baby it's pulling me tight so tonight steady your breathing calling out shifting the tides so tonight sweep me towards your seas calling out let's bring back that feeling give me your time give me your tongue

You're Fire 03:49
YOU'RE FIRE Where can I go? Where can I take this restless heart meant for somebody to be with... I want to feel you every dawn to hear your words like fire hands clinched like a hammer that breaks a rock into pieces I always find myself counting these days & nights do I deserve Shouting words to the heavens knowing it extends that far in my deepest wound, you showed me your glory and it was fascinating now I always leave a crack in the door to let your light shine in Where can I go? Where can I take this restless heart meant for somebody to be with...

Yes, this is about you so hear me out how can you learn if you only listen to yourself speak? we're on to you! everyone's on to you! Same old story can't wait to hear another tragedy caused by you
