Lying awake and thinking about our fall from grace
Still on my own side, emptiness to my right through the night
We were too young to win that fight
We tore the fabric of a cold suburban light
In a parallel alternalife you’re still mine for a minute or a lifetime
Somewhere in time we’re alright
Somewhere in time it’s all light
All of the darkness that you feel
Just fades away because it’s not real
There’ll come a day when all the pieces fall in line
Somewhere in time
Lying awake and thinking about were we’ve come from
Running through streets on ecstasy ’til the dawn wasn’t wrong
I wish we’d never let that go
There were places that we never got to know
In an alternate afterglow we’re still high for a minute or a lifetime

Running out of time
Breaking down inside
Need a place to go
A place to hide
Building up the walls
Blocking out the light
Is it any wonder that we fight
We’re falling down
I never want to see you cry again
Let’s break it down
I only want to see you fly again
Now the world is on fire
You and I will need somewhere new to go
Solitude and desire
No illusion just you and me alone (x2)
Counting down the time
To lifting off the ground
We can have it all
The speed of sound
Reaching for the light
To find a brand new home
Need to find a place to call our own
We’re getting out
I never want to see you cry again
Just one way out
I only want to see you fly again
Now the world is on fire
You and I will need somewhere new to go
Solitude and desire
No illusion just you and me alone (x2)
The speed of light
It’s the only way to go
The satellite
It’s the only place we know

Silent Eyes

I spent a long time running
From the fires deep below
With nowhere to hide, I swallow my pride alone
I spent a long time thinking
That I’m above it all
But here by your side, I’ve chosen to take the fall
Your silent eyes have made me lose control
(One night they’ll never know)
Your silent eyes have made me lose control
(Sunrise time to go)
Your silent eyes have made me lose control
(One night)
I’m human after all
I spent a long time dreaming
Of stolen lullabies
Of talks in the hall
And ending it all tonight
I spent a long time believing
That I’m above it all
But here by your side, I’ve chosen to take the fall
Your silent eyes have made me lose control
(One night they’ll never know)
Your silent eyes have made me lose control
(Sunrise time to go)
Your silent eyes have made me lose control
(One night)
I’m human after all
And I think of Sunset nights
The boulevard below in lights
The power of those eyes
To pull me to the other side
You pulled me to the other side

Rumours

I haven’t heard from you in quite a while
I have to say I really missed you
I haven’t found a way to find a smile
Except in dreams in which I kiss you
And I always thought that I’d win you back
And we’d end this night with our hearts intact but no
That’s not how the story goes
And I always thought that we’d never break
That we’d always sing the songs we make but no
That’s not how the story goes
I haven’t been myself in quite a while
I see your face in every window
I often hold the phone but never dial
I’m here alone but overshadowed
And I always thought that the day would come
When the rumours stop and we’d be as one but no
That’s now how the story goes
And I always hoped that you’d change your mind
That you’d grace my stage and be by my side but no
That’s not how the story goes

A Sky Full of Ghosts

Let’s walk tonight
Beneath a sky
A heavenly time machine
That shines for you and I
Let’s count the stars
Recall the past
Funny how even though they’re gone
Their light still lasts
Look up tonight at a sky full of ghosts
The fading light of the ones we’ll miss the most
Wherever you are tonight
Let’s raise a glass and toast tonight
To those fading lights in a sky full of ghosts
Let’s walk tonight
And be alone
Talk about all the distant lives
We’ll never know
Let’s count the stars
That time will steal
Maybe that’s why it’s sometimes hard
To know what’s real
Look up tonight at a sky full of ghosts
The fading light of the ones we’ll miss the most
Wherever you are tonight
Let’s raise a glass and toast tonight
To those fading lights in a sky full of ghosts
And so it goes
For years and years
Could they be watching us
As our light disappears
