2. Distraction - (5:36)
I'll be your distraction
I'll be your distraction
There's a field nearby
with words written in stone
my love will not die
please let it be known
this place is dead
it echoes through town
there isn't one voice
I haven't heard a sound
the planes flew in
their bombs did too
the city fell flat
the fires, they grew
when the smoke comes in
it'll color this town
but I'll still have you
so I'll say it aloud
I'll be your distraction
I'll be your distraction
The friendship we made
is a waste of our time
there's no one left here
to show future that's kind
it's a world of hate
gone incredibly wrong
we cared too late
we just followed along
and the boys went down
with a gun in their hand
their weapon of choice
their knees in the sand
if that field nearby
was still there to be used
would you ever have known?
those words were for you
I'll be your distraction
I'll be your distraction
I'll be your distraction
I'll be your distraction
I'll be your distraction
I'll be your distraction
I'll be, I'll be yours
I'll be, I'll be yours
I'll be, I'll be yours
I'll be, I'll be yours
3. Do It For Me Now - (4:33)
I'm frightened at night and the wind has a roar
it seeps through the hall and from under the door
like the shit that was said, I can't take it that well
I give and I give and I give and I give and I'm still
lost and hurt and bone thin from the love that's been starved
I know it got close but I'm sure it's too far
from the point of suspense, we know it should be
the end of that part of our favorite movie
where the guy grabs the girl and gives her his hand
says take me away from this torturous land
cause the grave is set up, the hole that I dug
I gave and I gave and I gave and I gave you my trust
like the time that we kissed and you gave me a lie
to add to the scene you pretended to cry
but I'm here and I'm cool, the way that it is
just give me a chance and I'll try to forgive
And I don't know, and I can't guess
if it's gonna be ok but now my last wish
is that you do this with me
kiss me here and hold my hand
let me feel like I'm the only one
I know you can, won't you do it for me now
I've really had it with the rain of the tears
the predictable storm that has come every year
and it sneaks in from shore with a bat in its hand
I'm trying I'm trying I'm trying I'm trying I can't
you're a thief and a witch but I love you to death
you steal my heart and curse under your breath
but the one thing that I can most willingly prove
that when you are gone I'll be fine without you
And I don't know, and I can't guess
if it's gonna be ok but now my last wish
is that you do this with me
kiss me here and hold my hand
let me feel like I'm the only one
I know you can, won't you do it for me now
Now just hold on, hold on to me
hold on, hold on to me (hold on to me)
hold on, hold on to me (hold on to me)
hold on, hold on to me (hold on to me)
hold on, hold on to me (hold on to me)
hold on, hold on to me (hold on to me)
hold on, hold on to me (hold on to me)
hold on, hold on to me (hold on to me)
hold on, hold on to me (hold on to me)
hold on, hold on to me (hold on to me)
4. The Adventure - (5:12)
I wanna have the same last dream again
the one where I wake up and I'm alive
just as the four walls close me within
my eyes are opened up with pure sunlight
I'm the first to know, my dearest friends
even if your hope has burned with time
anything that's dead shall be re-grown
and your vicious pain, your warning sign
you will be fine
Hey oh, here I am
and here we go, life's waiting to begin
Any type of love it will be shown
like every single tree reached for the sky
if you're gonna fall, I'll let you know
that I will pick you up like you for I
I felt this thing I can't replace
where everyone was working for this goal
where all the children left without a trace
only to come back as pure as gold
to recite this all
Hey oh, here I am
and here we go, life's waiting to begin
tonight, hey oh, here I am
and here we go, life's waiting to begin
tonight, hey oh, here I am
and here we go, life's waiting to begin
I cannot live, I can't breathe
unless you do this with me
I cannot live, I can't breathe
unless you do this with me
I cannot live, I can't breathe
unless you do this with me
I cannot live, I can't breathe
unless you do this with me
I cannot live, I can't breathe
unless you do this with me
I cannot live, I can't breathe
unless you do this with me
Hey oh, here I am (do this with me)
and here we go, life's waiting to begin (do this with me)
hey oh, here I am (do this with me)
and here we go, life's waiting to begin
life's waiting to begin
5. A Little's Enough - (4:45)
When all is said and done
will we still feel pain inside
will the scars go away with night
try to smile for the morning light
it's like the best dream to have
where every thing is not so bad
every tear is so alone
like god himself is coming home to say
I, I can do anything
if you want me here
and I can fix anything
if you'll let me near
where are those secrets now
that you're too scared to tell
I'd whisper them all aloud
so you can hear yourself
Green trees were the first sign
the deepest blue, the clearest sky
the silence came with brightest eyes
and turned water into wine
the children ran to see
the parents stood in disbelief
and those who knew braced for the ride
the earth itself then came alive to say
I, I can do anything
if you want me here
and I can fix anything
if you'll let me near
where are those secrets now
that you're too scared to tell
I'd whisper them all aloud
so you can hear yourself
I'm sorry I have to say it but you look like you're sad
your smile is gone, I've noticed it bad
the cure is if you let in just a little more love
I promise you this, a little's enough
I'm sorry I have to say it but you look like you're sad
your smile is gone, I've noticed it bad
the cure is if you let in just a little more love
I promise you this, a little's enough
I'm sorry I have to say it but you look like you're sad
your smile is gone, I've noticed it bad
the cure is if you let in just a little more love
I promise you this, a little's enough
I'm sorry I have to say it but you look like you're sad
your smile is gone, I've noticed it bad
the cure is if you let in just a little more love
I promise you this, a little's enough
I'm sorry I have to say it but you look like you're sad (just a little)
your smile is gone, I've noticed it bad (just a little)
the cure is if you let in just a little more love (just a little)
I promise you this, a little's enough
I'm sorry I have to say it but you look like you're sad (just a little)
your smile is gone, I've noticed it bad (just a little)
the cure is if you let in just a little more love (just a little)
I promise you this, a little's enough
6. The War - (5:08)
The ocean, is on fire
the sky turned dark again
as the boats came in
and the beaches
stretched out with soldiers
with their arms and guns
it has just begun
Believe, do you want this
believe, I want this too
Why wont you tell me that
it's almost over
why must this tear my head
inside out
And the houses
laid out like targets
with the deafening sound
we watched them all go down
and the families
now useless bodies
they lay still, black and blue
a gift from us to you
Believe, you do want this
believe, do I want this too
Why wont you tell me that
it's almost over
why must this tear my head
inside out
Oh oh oh oh oh, oh oh, oh oh
oh oh oh oh oh, oh oh, oh oh
oh oh oh oh oh, oh oh, oh oh
oh oh oh oh oh, oh oh, oh oh
oh oh oh oh oh, oh oh, oh oh (believe)
oh oh oh oh oh, oh oh, oh oh
oh oh oh oh oh, oh oh, oh oh (believe)
oh oh oh oh oh, oh oh, oh oh (you want this too)
Why wont you tell me that
it's almost over
why must this tear my head
inside out
why wont you tell me that
it's almost over
why must this tear my head
inside out
Oh oh oh oh oh, oh oh, oh oh
oh oh oh oh oh, oh oh, oh oh
oh oh oh oh oh, oh oh, oh oh
oh oh oh oh oh, oh oh, oh oh
7. The Gift - (5:02)
There's the strangest excitement today
if you're awake then you're welcome to hear
I got a gift and it blew me away
from the far eastern sea straight to here
oh god I feel like I'm in for it now
it's like the rush has gone straight to my brain
but my voice is as lonely as loud
as I whisper the joy of this pain
And suddenly
you've done it all
you've won me over
in no time at all
And now I'll stop the storm if it rains
I'll light a path far from here
I'll make your fear melt away
and the world we know disappear
If you ask I will do what you say
all we have is this night to get through
with a twist of your smile your own way
you left me all up in arms and confused
oh god I feel like I'm in for it now
and how this kiss will be wonderfully vain
I swear I'll melt if you touch me at all
but then I'll ask you to do it again and again
And suddenly
you've done it all
you've won me over
in no time at all
And now I'll stop the storm if it rains
I'll light a path far from here
I'll make your fear melt away
and the world we know disappear
I'll stop the storm if it rains
I'll light a path far from here
I'll make your fear melt away
and the world we know disappear
Oh, oh oh, oh oh, oh oh, ya-ooh
oh, oh oh, oh oh, oh oh, ya-ooh
oh, oh oh, oh oh, oh oh, ya-ooh
oh, oh oh, oh oh, oh oh, ya-ooh
And now I'll stop the storm if it rains
I'll light a path far from here
I'll make your fear melt away
and the world we know disappear
I'll stop the storm if it rains
I'll light a path far from here
I'll make your fear melt away
and the world we know disappear
Make the world we know disappear
oh, oh oh, oh oh, oh oh, ya-ooh
oh, oh oh, oh oh, oh oh, ya-ooh
oh, oh oh, oh oh, oh oh, ya-ooh
oh, oh oh, oh oh, oh oh, ya-ooh
8. It Hurts - (4:15)
It hurts (x17)
Is this what you want?
cause everybody acts without a clue
every little kiss and grin you gave
was just a little bullshit I saw through
the alcohol is scented with your breath
you're always all done up to just be used
I'm waiting for excuses that deceive
I'll meet you in the back to see them through
How did I let her inside?
we're dripping of sweat, I'm feeling alright
her lips were the last thing touched tonight
your best friend is not your girlfriend
it hurts (x17)
Are you out of your mind?
you dug yourself into a liar's hole
you made a little spark to live inside
it's now a fucking fire out of control
and when the morning comes you'll act surprised
and when the word gets out it will get old
and every day you'll try to live your life
and every little scandal will unfold
How did I let her inside?
we're dripping of sweat, I'm feeling alright
her lips were the last thing touched tonight
your best friend is not your girlfriend
Sherrie, do you want it?
Sherrie, I want it too
Sherrie, do you want it?
Sherrie, I want it too
How did I let her inside?
we're dripping of sweat, I'm feeling alright
her lips were the last thing touched tonight
your best friend is not your girlfriend
(It hurts, it hurts, it hurts, it hurts)
your best friend is not your girlfriend (it hurts, it hurts, it hurts, it hurts)
(it hurts, it hurts, it hurts, it hurts)
your best friend is not your girlfriend (it hurts, it hurts, it hurts, it hurts)
(it hurts, it hurts, it hurts, it hurts)
your best friend is not your girlfriend (it hurts, it hurts, it hurts, it hurts)
(it hurts, it hurts, it hurts, it hurts)
your best friend is not your girlfriend (it hurts, it hurts, it hurts, it hurts)
9. Good Day - (4:30)
(We don't need to whisper) (x4)
I should have turned back
I should have known better
than to walk away defeated
I'll say it tonight, I'll say it forever
and this time I really swear I mean it
Oh I need you now
the earth fell fast asleep
this room is safe and sound
will you lay here with me
and feel it
I think I like today, I think it's good
it's something I can't get my head around
True love is something that comes easy
just one kiss, god I swear I want to
I heard a pin drop and a nervous heartbeat
have you ever heard me scream I love you
Oh I need you now
the earth fell fast asleep
this room is safe and sound
will you lay here with me
and feel it
I think I like today, I think it's good
it's something I can't get my head around
I think I like today, I think it's good
it's something I can't get my head around
(Dada dada dada dadada) (x8)
I think I like today, I think it's good
it's something I can't get my head around
I think I like today, I think it's good
it's something I can't get my head around
I think I like today, I think it's good
it's something I can't get my head around
I think I like today, I think it's good
it's something I can't get my head around
10. Start The Machine - (4:11)
The ash set in then blew away
it's getting lost into the sea
I grew so close to all the thoughts I had to leave forever
I left the chill and voice of screams and kids and ran for shelter
You know I won't say sorry
you know I won't say sorry
the pain has a bad reaction
a blend of fear and passion
you know what it's like to believe
it makes me wanna scream
I see a glow from far away
a faint reflection on the sea
I left some words quite far from here to be a short reminder
I laid them out in stone in case they need to last forever
You know I won't say sorry
you know I won't say sorry
the pain has a bad reaction
a blend of fear and passion
you know what it's like to believe
it makes me wanna scream
I see the stars, they're in your eyes
a playful kiss, can you tell I'm excited?
a fast escape in the nick of time
if you lost your wish, can I help you find it?
I'm on my knee, just one to start
a fresh new start, don't be undecided
If love's a word, that you say
then say it, I will listen
if love's a word, that you say
then say it, I will listen (I will listen)
if love's a word, that you say
then say it, I will listen (I will listen)
if love's a word, that you say
then say it, I will listen (I will listen)
if love's a word, that you say
then say it, I will listen (I will listen)
if love's a word, that you say
then say it, I will listen (I will listen)
