Take Cover

She's a liar
It comes to this
All we had 'til now is gone
And I'm the other
Piece to this
Every time I feel this inside
I don't wanna be the one who...

Caught you
So take cover
Never saw it comin' so you put me on again
Had you and no other
The game, the lie is getting old

She starts feeling on her own
She makes the city seem like home
All you had for me is gone
I give and I give
But you hope in return
Never thought I'd be the one to burn

Every time I feel this inside
I don't wanna be the one to
I don't wanna be the one who...

Caught you
So take cover
Never saw it comin' so you put me on again
Had you and no other
The game, the lie is getting old




Over You

Getting over you, ohh
Getting over you, ohh

Hopeless
A single word that you would not expect from me, from me
I take it like it's coming from an enemy
The scene was meant to be
I see it coming after all the worst of me would fall
Make this now or never

See it on my face I'm getting over you, ohh
I'm getting over you, ohh
The place it takes me now
Well is it far enough
I'm getting over you, ohh
(Make this now or never)

Countless
The moments I would kill to keep this day away, away
I see it coming after all the worst of me would fall
I take it like it's coming from my greatest enemy
Make this now or never

See it on my face I'm getting over you, ohh
I'm getting over you, ohh
The place it takes me now (the place it takes me now)
Well is it far enough
I'm getting over you, ohh
(Make this now or never)

Hopeless
I don't have to take this

Countless
See it on my face

Getting over you, ohh
Getting over you, ohh
See it on my face
I'm getting over you, ohh
I'm getting over you, ohh
The place it takes me now (the place it takes me now)
Well is it far enough
I'm getting over you, ohh
(Make this now or never)

Hopeless
I don't have to take this
Make this now or never
Countless
See it on my face
I'm getting over you




In Too Far

The worst time, to hit you with my first line, no
Everything seemed fine, when I hold you like you’re one-of-a-kind
You said you were a sure sign, it’s feeling like the last time
Play it back, it’s going over and over
Give it up and pull me through, all of this to tell you...

I’ve been thinking, take me now, I’m in too far
Can’t stop feeling, doesn’t matter who you are
This could be my last goodbye
You could stay, I’ll be alright
I’ve been thinking, take me now, I’m in too far

If I might say, all of this seems to float away from...
Your lips when they’re kissing me, and your hips when leaving me for
The last time, I’m thinking of the first time, ohh
The first time, I’m thinking of the last time
Play it back, it’s going over and over
You’re trying me so I’m moving on, all of this to tell you...

I’ve been thinking, take me now, I’m in too far
Can’t stop feeling, doesn’t matter who you are
This could be my last goodbye
You could stay, I’ll be alright
I’ve been thinking, take me now, I’m in too far

This is where we left off and I’m trying hard to let go
This is where we left off and I’m still waiting to see if you’ll show

The first time, I’m thinking of the last time
The last time, I’m thinking of the first time

I’ve been thinking, take me now, I’m in too far
Can’t stop feeling, doesn’t matter who you are
This could be my last goodbye,
You could stay, I’ll be alright
I’ve been thinking, take me now, I’m in too far




The Letter

I take it all to heart
Don't point the finger
Choose the winner, hold your own
It's never been arranged
Who's the liar, I'm the coward
The letter read like this...
Of all the sinners I've walked before

I can't deny (Somehow you're seeing it)
So you're the one who took the fall
And it's bringing us together (together)
Don't ask me why (Somehow I'm seeing it)
And I'm breaking after all
This could last forever (forever)

The choice has always been
To take advantage
Ride it to the top
Still I'm caught again
I see this coming
See this coming true
Of all the sinners I walk before

I can't deny (Somehow you're seeing it)
So you're the one who took the fall
And it's bringing us together (together)
Don't ask me why (Somehow I'm seeing it)
And I'm breaking after all
This could last forever (forever)

We'll see if I start coming clean
You'll see that I'm still missing

I can't deny (Somehow you're seeing it)
So you're the one who took the fall
And it's bringing us together (together)
Don't ask me why (Somehow I'm seeing it)
And I'm breaking after all
This could last forever (forever)

I can't deny (Somehow you're seeing it)
So you're the one who took the fall
And it's bringing us together (together)
Don't ask me why (Somehow I'm seeing it)
And I'm breaking after all
This could last forever (forever)




Different

Tell myself, on the ride home
Getting tired, hating all I've known
Holding on, like it's all I have
Count me out, when it's clear that I, find it hard to say
And you, find it hard to care

I wanted to see something that's different, something you said would change in me
Wanted to be, anything different, everything you would change in me

Got this way, upfront but never true
God I'm wrong, it's just the way I am
Crashing down, any chance you hear
Caving in, any chance that you, could see inside of me
And I don't know what to say, It's fine
This isn't Hollywood
So fine, getting in your way

I wanted to see something that's different, something you said would change in me
Wanted to be, anything different, everything you would change in me

I'm taking a chance, this could be different
This could be all I'm waiting for
Taking a chance, this could be different
This could be all I'm waiting for

I wanted to see something that's different, something you said would change in me
Wanted to be, anything different, everything you would change in me

Something that's different
Something that's different




Ad Astra Per Aspera

(Instrumental)




This Conversation Is Over

I never thought I'd be the one to fool you,
if I told you now it would be over (it's over),
to steal all we had,
be a part of all I've been without
all I've been without

We stop waiting or I start going home
You don't have to follow
You don't have to follow
Take this call as a hint we're moving on
You don't have to follow
You don't have to follow

I never got a single thing that I wanted
I never got a single thing that I wanted
I never spoke a single word that you told me
I never spoke a single word that you told me
You told me

We stop waiting or I start going home
You don't have to follow
You don't have to follow
Take this call as a hint we're moving on
You don't have to follow
You don't have to follow

This conversation,
information that you wanted me to share
but I didn't want to be there
so I'll grant you one wish that won't come true

we stop waiting (we stop waiting, take this call)
You don't have to follow
You don't have to follow
We're leaving you, we're leaving
You don't have to follow
You don't have to follow
We stop waiting or I start going home
You don't have to follow
You don't have to follow
Take this call as a hint we're moving on
You don't have to follow
You don't have to follow




Breathless

watch her go watch her go watch her go
she'll have to cut it away to save her life
and she knows
see she knows
it's like fatal disease
you'll hear her cry, oh

take this
make it something beautiful again
make this
make this happen cause you're beautiful to them
turn into them

caught you anyway
i'm gonna say that i've been taken over
come let's go again
and tell me when
and i'll be taken over

you know that i'll never do it again, again
and i tell you i love you
say it again, again
turn into them

caught you anyway
i'm gonna say that i've been taken over
come let's go again
and tell me when and i'll be taken over

and time stands still as i picture
and time moves on to next one
with every word you said
with every word you said

caught you anyway
i'm gonna say that i've been taken over
come let's go again
and tell me when and i'll be taken over

caught you anyway
i'll be taken over
come let's go again
and i'll be taken over




So Contagious

Oh no, this couldn't be more unexpected
And I can tell that I've been moving in so slow
Don't let it throw you off too far
'Cause I'll be running right behind you

Could this be out of line?
To say you're the only one
Breaking me down like this
You're the only one I would take a shot on
Keep me hanging on
So contagiously

Oh, when I'm around you I'm predictable
'Cause I believe in loving you at first sight
I know it's crazy but I'm hoping to
To take ahold of you

Could this be out of line?
To say you're the only one
Breaking me down like this
You're the only one I would take a shot on
Keep me hanging on
So contagiously

Oh you're everything I'm wanting
Come to think of it I'm aching
On account of my transgression
Will you welcome this confession?

Could this be out of line?
To say you're the only one
Breaking me down like this
You're the only one I would take a shot on
Keep me hanging on
So contagiously

Could this be out of line?
To say you're the only one
Breaking me down like this
You're the only one I would take a shot on
Keep me hanging on
So contagiously




In The Cold

And the words they take their meaning (It's all you said)
and the flame, it loses colour (It's all you said)
Take take take a while, take a while (It's all you said)

Knowing that it's far from over
This one belongs to you

Time shows us that all that ever mattered
all that ever mattered leaves us in the cold
If you ever believe this is what you need
it will spin around and shatter
throw you to the floor
as it leaves us in the cold

And the dream you think I'm making
while the house I built is breaking
Take take take a while, take a while (It's all you said)

Knowing that it's far from over
this one belongs to you

Time shows us that all that ever mattered
all that ever mattered leaves us in the cold
If you ever believe this is what you need
it will spin around and shatter
throw you to the floor
as it leaves us in the cold

I remember the train you came in on
Everything I want kept calling
I remember the chill that came over
Everything I loved went falling

Time shows us that all that ever mattered
all that ever mattered leaves us in the cold
If you ever believe this is what you need
it will spin around and shatter
throw you to the floor
as it leaves us in the cold




Permanent

some time ago I keep losing track, over again
all these promises won't turn golden, until you touch them

it's permanent
nothing is permanent
it's permanent
we'll be watching your back
following indecision's lasting for years
indecision's lasting for years

some time ago memories in my head are starting again
speak it fast don't move in slow
running through the country
maybe they will find me

it's permanent
nothing is permanent
it's permanent
we'll be watching your back
be watching your back
following indecision's lasting for years
indecision's lasting for years

like a river in Arizona, dried up before you were born
it's starting up again
it's starting up again
it's starting up again

(we'll be watching your back)

it's starting up again
it's starting up again
we'll be watching your back

it's permanent
nothing is permanent
it's permanent
we'll be watching your back
it's permanent
nothing is permanent
it's permanent
time is pushing us back (following)
permanent permanent permanent




Gloria/Us Appearing

ACCEPTANCE LYRICS

"Glory/Us"

Cold and wired
I've been fired
Everything you said to me goes well
Everything you said that you said
Said you're seeing right through me
Could be pulling you to me
Nothing seems to be working
Throwing all my intentions on the, on the....

All tied in one
Honesty waits here forever
I've been undone
Glory and us come together

Beautiful is my picture
Throw it up in the spotlight
The setting seems to be working
Throwing all my intentions on the, on the...

All tied in one
Honesty waits here forever
I've been undone
Glory and us come together

And I'll see this through
Everything you said before
And I'll see this through

All tied in one
All tied in one

Everything changes the colours we see (All tied in one)
Constant reminder of all that we should
Taking it back (All tied in one)
Turning around, turning around (Glory and us come to...)
Everything changes the colours we see (All tied in one)
Constant reminder of all that we should (Honesty waits here forever)
Turning around, turning around (I've been undone)
Glory is waiting
