don't let your guard down there's a thousand ways to fuck this up don't give up now see it through and hope for the best there's nothing here that we can't fix, that can't be helped there's no place to lay the blame, there's no way out don't let your guard down there's a thousand ways to fuck this up don't give up now see it through and hope for the best let time take care of the rest there's nothing here that we can't fix, that can't be helped there's no place to lay the blame, there's no way out this time i'll come home armed to the teeth prepared for the worst but hoping for the best you can't bring it back it's time you trust in something new

i'm an open wound, i'm a burning book i'm a broken record when i'm with you but i want to be your super hero i want you to trust in me to save the world i've seen enough to know that when it starts to go it almost always goes every night, almost every time from every side it's just a waste of time i've seen enough to know that when it starts to go it almost always goes and i know that you know that i'd set myself on fire i know that you know that i'd set myself on fire

you wake up asleep you wake up asleep noone will ever know how little you really show never been good at letting go noone will ever know it broke my heart i push too hard i guess that's a start it broke my heart your shape it means the most you make the brightest ghost all wet and here for show your shape it means the most you make the brightest ghost all wet and here for show

Feast of St Anthony 02:07
lyrics

voices collided in foreign tongues, echoing down the alleyways from your hotel window, saw what was left of the night stretching up to meet us halfway you would not back down the buildings sat languid across the skyline outside, splayed out against the boot black night as your legs hung crooked off the bed, I knew that I was not misled but I just stared out upon Lisbon and slowly lost my nerve

Follow You Home 04:03
lyrics

all your doubts can wait outside so we can go indoors and appreciate the warmth i'm not going away i will follow you home just to make sure you are safe and i'll return every day good morning, i missed you i've been up all night hoping to find a reason to be here when you wake up alone it haunts me. i know it haunts you too. i'm not going away i will follow you home just to make sure you are safe and i'll return every day

Trampoline 03:08
lyrics
buy track
you have a way of finding a way out ways most other people never think about all your avenues are endless, most don't even start the end and the beginning never far apart the finer things you've come to know don't mean anything all alone buried in the backyard of your humble home i know you're far away and that there are more then miles between us but if you say the word i'll be right there with my bags packed the finer things you've come to know don't mean anything all alone the finer things you've come to know don't mean anything all alone
