Deceiving Me 04:48
This city it never looks the same to me The oceans, the sidewalks, go on so endlessly The one thing I do remember, is the way she looks at me Like raindrops, or the waves when they crashed, I recall so vividly I am not taking this lightly, is my mind deceiving me? Is this all just make believe? Is my mind, is my mind? Is it real or just a dream, deceiving me? I stop and I look out, I hear voices, they are telling me Don't ever stop searching you'll be fine it’s just a memory Lavender, it grows like jasmine or pink roses A garden, an ocean, am i drowning in a mystery? I am not taking this lightly, is my mind deceiving me? Is this all just make believe? Is my mind, is my mind? Is this real or just a dream, deceiving me?

Na na na na na Here I go again now, lost inside many shadows and I'm so glad you came ‘cause we're so far behind Nothing left to prove now, I gave my best and then suffered from The same old test and then I, Hear from the rewind Na na na na na Keep a record of things, you never know what you're gonna need, Reiterate, the slate, keep-up with faculty Repetition teaches, just repeat what you hear and read Seeing is believing, show less apathy You said it again now, we said it again now, She said it again now, he said it again now, We said it again now, you said it again now, we said it again now Na na na na na Let me show you, the way I feel, let me show you, it will haunt you I need some simplicity to make this right Or we'll be out of key stuck in hopeless nights Can we just believe to keep this out of sight? The wait is killing us, it haunts you am I right? Na na na na na

You talk to me like words float over head Making up whatever it is you need to believe-in Comic strips are flashing in your eyes Now a sense of humor is all you really need Now I'm the clumsy one and you're the fully-loaded gun I set you off and you'll be on the run Whatever it is that you will want to hear I said it, I admit it, whatever I just don't care Comic strips are flashing in our eyes Now imagination is all we really need I'm the clumsy one, and you're the fully loaded gun I set you off and you'll be on the run ooh and we just got started ooh you do keep me guarded oh my my I hope it’s not the end, the end but then again, again, again, again, again, again I'm the clumsy one and you're the fully loaded gun I set you off and you'll be on the run, I set you off and you'll be on the run.

You said it was nice, to see her, smile today She just looked at you and walked away Things are ever changing, for good, like yesterday You won't even try, to say, what you feel inside When you're wrestling with the demons all the time Thinking life’s a mistress by your side You said it was nice, to see her smile today You've waited all last week, for that one thing to say When calls on the phone go un-answered You crumble and feel like no one is listening Wrestling with the demons all the time Thinking life’s a mistress by your side You seem to always forget the brightside But you've never been so desperate, yeah La la la la La la la la Always on your mind, always on your mind When you’re wrestling with the demons all the time Thinking life’s a mistress by your side You always seem to neglect the brightside And you’ve never been so desperate, so desperate When you said it was nice

Safety Signs 03:29
Restless once again, feeling like the dead, discovering the might have beens Someone from afar knows they have your heart, and struggles to put it back again It may take a while, so hold on, the futures gonna listen, looking out for you, like safety signs, the futures going to listen Traveling by train, making your own way, the tracks to nowhere speak your name Windows with the bars, rooms with witness stands, the love in you will rise to avenge It may take a while, so hold on, the futures gonna listen, looking out for you, like safety signs, the futures going to listen It feels a long way from your home, your home It may take a while, so hold on, the futures gonna listen, looking out for you, like safety signs, the futures going to listen It’s coming up on you, like safety signs, the past is in remission now

Stars are lining up with you in mind You’re the one that I was meant to find When they are racing to the skies above We aren't racing we just fell in love ohhh ohh ohhh Slow it down ohhh ohh ohhh ohhh ohhh ohhhh ohhh ohhh ohhh Now ohhh ohhh ohhh ohhh ohhh I believe its beauty by design The stars that all line up with you in mind As they are racing to the skies above We aren't racing we just fell in love ohhh Slow it down ohhh ohhhh ohhh Now ohhh To lose my faith in all above, would lose my faith in you my love We aren't racing, we aren't racing

Winds are blowing in the street It’s cold outside and we are working all the time The kind that cuts right through a breeze It keeps us guessing, keeps me questioning Are you? Are you alone, tonight? Do you ever feel like giving up? Hold on, Hold on It’s complicated schemes that keeps us standing, on our own two feet The blowing in the street, it keeps us moving, can’t stop now, stop now Across the lot where our eyes meet The thoughts I seem to never clearly speak It makes the day feel incomplete Well it needs expressing, but I’m still questioning Are you? Are you alone, tonight? Do you ever feel like giving up? Hold on, Hold on The complicated schemes, that keeps us standing, on our own two feet The blowing in the street, it keeps us moving, sailing reality Are you just like me? Do you ever feel like, feel like giving up? The blowing in the street, it keeps us moving, can’t stop now, stop now We're sailing, sailing... The complicated theme, that keeps us standing, on our own two feet The blowing in the street that keeps us moving, sailing reality And are you just like me? Do you ever feel like, feel like giving up? I'll be out there every evening, so we keep it up, can’t stop now, stop now

ohh ohh ohh She laughs in the doorway you're half down the block who wants silly flowers knowing the frost has come? You stare in the mirrors where objects are closer the night shift is never funny when you see she's vanishing Somewhere, it's snowing you drive without knowing inside, she’s dying alone, she’s crying Who, would've known? Caught in the cold Death takes its toll ohh ohh ohh Collapsed at the parade sedated for sure batons are a claim for fame until they hit the floor Somewhere it's snowing you drive without knowing outside, she’s dying alone, she’s crying Who, would've known? Caught in the cold death takes its toll death takes its toll death takes its toll ohh ohh ohh She laughs in the doorway your half down the block who wants silly flowers knowing the frost has come?

You know the summertime, it always came The seasons will change, the seasons will always change Even in winter time the cold regains The heavens create, whatever they say they will Can you see the light? Shining on you, shining on everyone in sight And do you feel the fight? The fight is for you, for the things that hurt you inside Oh you still have soul, no one can steal, oh no, oh no Oh you still have soul, Impossible to steal, why try? They try Can you see the light? Shining on you, shining on everyone in sight Do you feel the fight? The fight is for you, for the things that hurt you inside oh oh oh oh Can you see the light? Shining on you, shining on everyone in sight And do you feel the fight? The fight is for you, for the things that hurt you inside Can you see the light? Shining on you, shining on everyone in sight

I know it’s hard, it’s hard to sleep I know it’s hard, it’s hard to keep those secrets in your head at night, secrets in your head at night I know it’s hard, it’s hard to speak I know it’s hard, it’s hard to forget Everything that happened lately Everything that makes you hazy You feel like you can't get away it feels like it won’t go away it’s hard to keep your head on straight it’s hard to think throughout the day Memories of past refine, situations that remind it’s hard to learn when you're away it’s hard to learn when past won't fade Move child, drive in the midnight, don't lose control Move child, take in the midnight, come on, let it flow I know it’s hard it’s hard to think I know it’s hard it’s hard to see when memories make you go blind like situations you can’t define, It’s hard Move child, drive in the midnight, don't lose control Move child, take in the midnight, come on, let it flow Make room child, push all the angst away, tonight let it go Move child, take in the midnight, come on, let it flow I know it’s hard, it’s hard to sleep I know it’s hard, it’s hard to keep those secrets in your head at night, secrets in your head at night

She’s so tired, up all night, thinking about the day She’s been waiting, so frustrating, thinking "Why should I stay?" Angie left today, she didn't even smile and all the while you say "Ohhh, ahh ahh ahh ahh, things don't always go your way" The sun beams down, on her face, all she needed was shade Nights go cold, days grow old, the memories never did fade Angie left today, she didn't even smile and all the while you say "Ooh, ahhh ahhh ahhh ahhh things don't always go your, ahh ahh ahh ahh, things don't always go your way" Angie left today, she didn't even smile and all the while you say "Ohhh. ahh ahh ahh ahh, things don't always go your ahh ahh ahh ahh, things don't always go your ahh ahh ahh ahh, things don't always go your way"

Oh I look up, skies disappear Oh I see you now, you're still The sights that I loved most, are distant now Crystal clear was once, but now is gone Oh it’s such a different view Now that I have eyes for you I’m so focused on, nothing now but you The streets are empty but, it doesn't mean it’s true Not what I had thought, from my point of view They see headlights but, all I see is you Oh it’s such a different view Now that I have eyes for you Always such a newfound view Now that I have eyes for you
