“Don’t be a prisoner of your own style.”
3. This Light Between Us 4. Not Giving Up On Love I’ve found some courage in my battles won 9. Virtual Friend
Never leads me far from where I’m meant
Can you see this light between us I know you’re feeling restless like life’s not on to be Autumn leaves
Keeps me breathing through the storm your side We treat as litter
My head above the crowd It’s weighing heavy on your mind My heavy heart it pulls me People living
Can you see this light between us But when we stand united our hearts they beat And I know you will be there On a bench
So come a little bit closer now in time
It’s in our eyes I know we’ll make it all alright Childhood friends
8. Feels So Good Who lost contact
You and me we’re just believers Let’s bring it back to you and me there’s no one Fallen soldiers
Believe in what we hold else around You’re on the telephone telling me that she’s gone In a trench
But sometimes we fall to pieces in the dust No don’t get lost in gravity ‘cause I want you to We’ve been down this road, a million times before
By the way
So we should dance like this forever Hold me now, nothing else matters ‘Cause it’s a sweet sensation thinking of all that Are you watching
We’re safer of the ground It’s just the two of us hot temptation How the world
When a million lights surround you And if it all falls down, nothing else matters You know it’s going right where you want Says goodbye
And you’re moving to the sound You know we’re strong enough Yeah you know what’s going on
I’m not giving up, I’m not giving up on us Plastic islands
Don’t waste another moment I said I’m not giving up, I’m not giving up on love! I keep breaking my own rules In the ocean
Its waiting for you now Playing your love fool Violent storms
So dive in this new beginning ‘Cause I feel it inside taking over tonight Try not to forget about the consequence Drop atom bombs
And let the glowing show you how I’ll be there when the storm is breaking We keep saying that we should
In this moment I’m yours And yeah we know we could stop Hidden women
I would say You can always be sure But really what it all comes down to... is Walking slowly
This light between us That together we’re gonna make it Desperate men
Keeps me breathing through the storm So baby won’t you... It feels so good, it feels so good, when I’m in your Sing sacred songs
My head above the crowd arms
Can you see this light between us Don’t you know it feels so good, it feels so good, By the way
So come a little bit closer now 7. Take A Moment it feels so good Are you watching
It’s in our eyes How the world
Leaves are falling on my window You say it’s dangerous you don’t wanna be exposed Says goodbye
We’ll take a ride outside together Turning golden fire But I know you’re liking this and your not gonna let
The streets are lined with gold With the wind they go it go City boys
And where the good become the wanted I lost my way where do I go now Selling countries
Not the sold This looks just like the road I came down But it’s a sweet sensation thinking of all that Surgeons lifting
hot temptation, I can’t stop Sagging skin
Don’t waste another moment Take a moment to live You know it’s going right where you want Sitting by
I’m waiting for you now Take a moment to cry Yeah you know what’s going on Software windows
So dive in this new beginning Take a moment to love Trying to find a
And let the colors show you how And don’t ask why Just move with me, move with me, move with me Virtual friend
Oh won’t you move with me, move with me, move with
So dive in this new beginning Moment to live me By the way
And let the colors show you how Moment to love Are you watching
A steady hand can point me somewhere How the world
I’m all the wiser for the many wrongs I’ve done Says farewell
10. Drowning 13. These Silent Hearts 17. Breathe In Deep I think it’s time for giving up
I think it’s time for giving in
Rush, pull me under All the sounds begin Lie, breathe in deep
The world is at my feet and it’s no wonder To rush in Too tired to fight
And flood the altar of our perception Lie, breathe in deep All I am I give to you
Your eyes speak to me Sleep till the sunlight rushes in You are home
They tell me be calm The silence that we keep And the smell of skin throws light up into my face In you I feel my meaning
They tell me be strong In this sleep I can’t breathe when you’re near to me
Swimming out so deep Is rising from this slumber again It’s like a dream when I see the sunlight on I surrender
Now I can’t breathe your face
And it’s exactly where I belong What we seek we find And the touch of you throws light on the
Is intertwined darkest place 20. Love Too Hard
‘Cause it feels like the ride of a lifetime With our beliefs manifesting in daily life
And nothing’s gonna save us now I can’t breathe when you’re near to me Some stories unfold
Let the waves come crashing down Yet it all feels pure and simple now This one showed its colors instantly
‘Cause it feels like I’m right for the These silent hearts From the start
first time We hold within our hands 18. Take Me Where I Wanna Go I knew who you were
And every time I take you in Within my heart, the rush is just the same But I didn’t walk away
I feel my heart skip a beat again These silent hearts Close your eyes, open up Just underestimated
Protect it from the dark No need to be afraid The wounds of denial
I’m drowning in your love! Let silence be broken I hear you calling Were self inflicted
I’m drowning, I’m drowning, I’m drowning
I’m drowning in your love These silent hearts Take me where I wanna go Just because you love too hard
I’m drowning, I’m drowning, I’m drowning Let it in before it’s gone Just because you love too much
You tell me what I need to know You think your love’s enough
Love, it’s taking over 16. Youtopia It keeps me holding on For both of us
There’s no in between to offer me some cover Hold on Strong enough for two
I can feel you in the rising tide You love too hard
The tide is coming I don’t know if I can take it Can you feel me by the fireside? You take me where I wanna go
I lose my focus, lose my focus For the moonlight through cherry trees I never wanted this
With every breath I feel my inhibition breaking Don’t know why I went
I can’t control it Open the roof and take in the view 19. I Surrender For the ride
‘Cause you’re my sweetest dream come true It was always clear to me
I’m drowning in your love! Everybody’s seeking meaning All we were
Color the dusk a deep navy blue A place to call a home And I should’ve walked away
And try to be brave ‘cause I’ll be right Something to believe in When I had a chance to
11. Down To Love beside you Before we’re gone The wounds of denial
There’s a world so high Are self inflicted
It’s down to love tonight Hold out your hands and you can go anywhere Everybody’s seeking comfort
It is where we are So reach for the stars ‘cause I’ll be waiting Someone to be a friend Just because you love too hard
As we turn into the light up there A hand to hold on to Just because you love too much
Let’s make it last And you can finally fly ‘cause you’ll be lighter In times of rain You think your love’s enough
than air For both of us
Make it last! I need some love Strong enough for two
I need to heal You love too hard
The ache of no reason
Has taken its toll
