Complicated 04:47
It’s complicated. We build things up, only to break them. Anticipating, keep holding it in till you can no longer say it. There’s a hole in the universe where I’m falling through. There’s a hole in the universe and it’s shaped like you. yeah, yeah, oh, oh I got no alibis. In this story of spite, there is no black and white. I’m pulling at my hair. In this ocean of lies, there is no coming up for air. There’s a hole in the universe where you used to be. There’s a hole in the universe inside of me. (oh, oh) yeah, yeah, oh, oh yeah, yeah, oh, oh I’m screaming my frustration! Outro

Dreamer 03:49
If only they could see the view From behind the eyes that he looks through All the different blues and greens and what he thinks that it all means From his ink-stained fingertips To the sugar of his lips Constellation in my sky He’ll always be my dreamer, mine If they could spend a day Inside his shoes then maybe they can choose Between seeing and believing Knowing fact and knowing truth From his ink-stained fingertips To the sugar of his lips Constellation in my sky He’ll always be my dreamer, mine And he will always stand out Set apart from the crowd His feet are planted on the ground but his head’s lost in the clouds (in the clouds) He’s at the end of where I’m ending The beginning of where I begin An ever fixed mark we meet I’m waiting From his ink-stained fingertips To the sugar of his lips Constellation in my sky He’ll always be my dreamer, mine And he will always stand out Set apart from the crowd His feet are planted on the ground but his head’s lost in the clouds (in the clouds)

Guitarman 03:51
Guitarman Guitarman, you are everything that I thought I wanted. And Guitarman, I am a fool for you Just like everyone else Don’t ask me why Oh I can’t lie Because I barely even know myself that well But it’s swell Guitarman Your days are shamelessly divided into “See you later, maybe, baby”s oh no And I can’t sit still, no until I do See you Oh what to do Fidgeting in my seat You’ve got me beat Guitarman, Guitarman Must you be so good with those hands? Guitarman, Guitarman Every line you sing is a Sweet demand You drive me mad Doo doo doo, doo doo doo doo Guitarman, guitarman Your days are shamelessly divided into “See you later, maybe, baby”s oh no And I can’t sit still, no until I do See you Oh what to do Fidgeting in my seat You’ve got me beat Guitarman, guitarman, guitarman Ahh ahhh ahh ahh oh Yeah yeah yeah oh oh yeah yeah yeah yeah oh Yeah yeah yeah oh oh oh ——————————————————————————————– OVER: I kiss you in the vaccum of sound that rainfall creates around you and me The air is dense like water and you might Move slow but you have nowhere else to be Nowhere else to be To be, but with me Ahhhh. Your skin is warm like butter and I might knife through, and you are waiting quietly Impending darkness blocks out the light But right now there is no need for us to see Nowhere else to be To be, but with me Ahhhh. Hard part’s over. We’ve found each other. Hard part’s over. We’ve found each other.

Invincible 06:30
We never should have left everyone behind We could have gone so far We could have gone so far All of the memories that we have made We’re gonna forget them. We’re gonna forget them. All of the promises that you have made You’re not gonna keep them. Oh, you’re not gonna keep them. And oh oh oh, all of our friends who still don’t know We’ll who’s gonna tell them? Oh, who’s gonna tell them that We couldn’t make it through The hardship and the pain, no We thought we had it all And that we were invincible But you’re a ]liar, liar. (oh oh) Liar, liar For all your lies, you cannot fool me The girl on your arm, she has no idea That you have said all of those things to me before I will even the score, I will even the score We couldn’t make it through The hardship and the pain, no We thought we had it all And that we were invincible But you’re a ]liar, liar. (oh oh) Liar, liar Here we go, oh oh We couldn’t make it through The hardship and the pain, no We thought we had it all And that we were invincible But you’re a ]liar, liar. (oh oh) Liar, liar.

So close to you, now. Skin to mine, now. Forever in this place Let’s stay a while. They’ll leave us alone, If we don’t make a sound. If we stifle our laughter, If the sheets keep us bound. Oh so heavy your heart, That I hold in mine. And I carry it so, Wherever I go. And I carry it so, Wherever I go. My love, my only Eyes as deep as the sea Underneath your lingering gaze Will I finally be free. They’ll leave us alone, If we don’t make a sound. If we stifle our laughter, If the sheets keep us bound. Oh so heavy your heart, That I hold in mine. And I carry it so, Wherever I go. Oh so heavy your heart, That I hold in mine. And I carry it so, Wherever I go.
