La La Lie

-- Lyrics --
Day or night
Friendly or fire
Doesn’t feel right to me
I can keep up
Even though I won’t feel alright for weeks
Never mind
Don’t pretend we know the meaning
Don’t look up
Try not to see that I’m leaving
When I say that I don’t need help
And I promise I will be fine
Oh I la la lie
La la la lie
La la lie to myself
Can you look me straight in the eye?
There’s a story for every time
And you la la lie
La la la lie
La la lie to yourself
Day and night
You need advice
Don’t get caught up with me
Burden of proof
I’m not confused, I wasn’t even here
Never mind
Don’t pretend we know the meaning
Don’t look down
Try not to see that you’re bleeding
You can say that you don’t need help
Can you look me straight in the eye?
Can you la la lie
La la la lie
La la lie to yourself?
I can promise myself tonight
I rehearsed and I know my lines
I can la la lie
La la la lie
La la lie to myself
Oh I la la lie, la la la lie, keep lying to myself
Can you la la la lie, la la la lie, keep lying to yourself?
No I know that I don’t need help
There’s a story for every time
Oh I lie lie lie, la la la lie, la la lie to myself
I can lie lie lie, la la la lie, keep lying to myself
Can you lie lie lie, la la la lie, keep lying to yourself?

Long Goodbye
03:46
|

|
-- Lyrics --
Tell me again how you loved me
Even the days when you doubted
How many times can I run to defy it
Into the arms of your, your goodbye
Your long goodbye
When I’m in love
Nobody else for me to blame
Take me down
Leave me no, no escape now
No escape when I fall or when I lie
Into the arms of your, your goodbye
Your long goodbye
And when I hear your farewell in my mind
Play it again and again, then rewind
How many times can I try to deny it
You have a way to forget
And so do I now, so do I
The way you love
Even your enemy has a price
Take me down
While you’re young and so am I, now
So am I
When I run, I’m running blind
Into the arms of your, your goodbye
Now say goodbye
Into your arms or in your head
It makes no difference
Now that I know what I had
And what you wanted
We couldn’t face the darkness
Over and over again
Get out of bed and get dressed
Have I been waiting my whole life for this?
When I’m in love
Nobody else for me to blame
Take me down
Leave me no, no escape now
No escape when I run
I’m running blind
Into the arms of your, your goodbye
Your long goodbye
And I’m in love
Oh I’m in love
When I fall
Or when I lie
Into the arms of your, your goodbye
Your long goodbye
I’m in love
I’m in love

Let Me In
02:45
|
|||
|
-- Lyrics --
I’ve been standing at the door outside
When you gonna let me in?
I’ve been waiting for a show tonight
When you gonna let me in?
Are you ever gonna let me in?
Oh you don’t let me, never gonna let me in!
Are you ever gonna let me in?
Oh you can’t let me, never gonna let me
Oh will you let me in?
I’ve been patient for a long long while
Hoping for a lock to give
If you worry I’ll keep you up all night
How you gonna let me in?
Oh you’re never gonna let me in
Oh you don’t let me, never gonna let me in!
Are you ever gonna let me in?
Oh you can’t let me, never gonna let me in!
Are you ever gonna let me in?
Not without asking, never gonna let me in!
If you’re ever gonna let me in
You better hurry, how are you gonna let me
Oh will you let me in!
Not when it’s getting cold
And no one else is in sight
And all this waiting for you makes me hope
That after all this time, turn on the light
I can’t stay now without a sign
I’ve been stranded at the door outside
You’re never gonna let me in
I’ve been patient but I’m older now
And are you gonna want me when
You’re not ready for the lock to give
No you don’t let me, never gonna let me in!
Were you ever gonna let me in?
No you can’t let me, never gonna let me in!
Were you ever gonna let me in?
Not without asking
Oh were you ever gonna let me in?
Not without begging
Oh I’ve been waiting for a lock to give
I’ve been waiting for a lot to give
You better hurry, how you gonna let me
Oh will you let me in?
Oh will you let me in?

In the Name Of
04:17

|
-- Lyrics --
I know I can’t go home again
I’m in trouble
I’d be living in a future I can never know
And a past that is holding on
And holding on to me broken
On and on to me still
I thought I could break this spell
Oh, maybe I, maybe I never will
An old ghost coming round again
A battlefield I’m abandoning
The promise of a day like this
Or a memory in a kiss
Can’t see all the walls I built
Turned my fear into monuments
Daydream I’ll be living in
But when I wake up here
Will I be holding on til it’s broken
Holding on and on to the end
I thought I would break the spell
Oh maybe I, maybe I never will
It feels like living in the name of
Feels like living in the name of
Oh I can’t keep living in the name of
If it feels like living in the name of
Why am I living in the name of?
Why am I living in the name of?
I know I can’t go home again
I’m in trouble
I’d be living in old dreams when they’re caving in
Now I’m somewhere I’ve never been
Just keep holding on til I’m broken
On and on til the end
I thought I had found a friend
And maybe I
Maybe I never will if it feels like living in the name of
Does it feel like living in the name of?
Then you can’t keep living in the name of
Oh I can’t keep living in the name of
Why am I living in the name?
Why am I living in the name?
Why am I living in the name of?
Am I living if it feels like living in the name?
If it feels like living in the name
Does it feel like living in the name?
When you can’t keep going, living in the name
Oh I can’t keep, why am I living in the name of?

Time

-- Lyrics --
Too far away to be sure of
These little words I’m sending up
Even though I want to
Should I be cruel?
Safer than kindness
The way I found you
I don’t fall out of line
But I can hold on to some time
I can hold on to some time for you
Call me when you got the time
Trying to forget and you revive
Every part of me I buried alive
Calling out to me when I am sleeping
Oh now can you find me when I need it?
I don’t wait in line
But I can hold on to some time
I can hold on to some time for you
Call me when you got the
Like you need to
Call me when you got the time
If I can hold on to some time
Borrowed or stolen
Watch where I’m going
Walk me out over the line
Am I a fool to think this is different?
Prove me wrong
Or prove me right
When I’m in this state
In another life
Tell me in your way
Am I running out?
Or a little late?
Am I faded out of sight?
Oh, do you want mine?
Oh, do you want mine?
Tell me do you want my
Tell me do you want my
Tell me
Do you want my time?

Good Advice
04:16
|

|
-- Lyrics --
Well any sense I had is gone
On an open field you had me run
Where was the light we had before?
I don’t know why I ask at all
I keep on talking carelessly
I look in books and magazines
Thinking a word could be enough
You look at me
I’m burning up
When I hear your good advice
I’m starting something
And good advice
I’m running from it
I didn’t ask and I didn’t want it
In an empty room you pardon me
But all around us, whispering
What we have now, anyone’s guess
So just be rude or your kindest
You give it out so easily
That now I drown in reasoning
I can’t be helped, or even heard
And every word makes me feel worse
When I hear your good advice
I’m starting something
Your good advice
I keep running from it
I shouldn’t ask since I never want it
Any sense I had at all is gone
On the open field you had me run
Where was the light we had before?
Oh, I don’t know why I ask at all
If a pardon isn’t what I want
I can’t be helped or even hurt
By all this good advice I’ve heard
Oh, your good advice
I’ve started something
I should have known that I didn’t want it
I’ll never hear it
I keep on running
I didn’t ask and I can’t be pardoned

Infamous

-- Lyrics --
Saw all the pictures
Read all your darkest thoughts
While you were waiting
Ready to brush me off
We could be friendly
We could be out of touch
We could be famous
Or even infamous if you want
Come back or not, but call it off
Come back or don’t, but turn me down
Don’t waste my time pretending love is somewhere else
Come back or not, but call it off
Come back or don’t, but turn around
Stop wasting time pretending love is somewhere else
Should’ve been easy
But how can I close my eyes
You have new friends now
And I didn’t recognize
For every time you’d say I ask for too much
You spend another day
Trying to be infamous and turn around
Come back or not, but call it off
Come back or don’t, but turn me down
Don’t waste my time pretending love is somewhere else
Come back or don’t, but call it off
Come back alone or turn me down
Don’t waste my time pretending love is somewhere else
Somewhere else
Somewhere else
Somewhere
Somewhere else
Come back or not, but call it off
Come back or don’t, but turn me down
Don’t waste my time pretending love is somewhere else
Come back or don’t, but call it off
Come back alone or turn me down
Don’t waste my time pretending at all
Come back alone or call it off
You’re gonna kill the both of us
Come back alone or call it off
Don’t waste my time pretending at all
Come back or don’t, but call it off
Are you already somewhere else?
Somewhere else
Somewhere else
Somewhere
Somewhere else

Fool

-- Lyrics --
Find me when our house is empty
I’m already in my new town
From here I can hear you laughing
I know the sound very well
I’m still your fool
I’m still your fool
I’m still your fool
I’m still your fool
Tried to find a way to show you
Told the story to our friends
Now that we all know the punchline
Can I make you understand
That I’m still your fool
I’m still your fool
I’m still your fool
I’m still your fool
I’m always first to break
Friendly or foolish, you tell me
No surprises please
Only your echo following
Tried to find a way to show you
I can’t pin you down again
Now that we all know the punchline
Only you know if I am
Am I still your fool?
I’m still your fool
I’m still your fool
I’m still your fool

The Garden
03:17

|
-- Lyrics --
Here
Where the grass is the tallest
Lilacs all done with their blooming
Keeping your eyes closed to see it
Here, in the garden we wanted
In a dream we might not know it
Walking through, minding the old fence
On the edge of an ocean
We won’t look back
And if we don’t we won’t be lost
I won’t look back, I know I won’t
I know I won’t be lost
Even when daylight was shortest
You were still calling me darling
Lilacs were all overgrown then
There in the garden we wanted
In a year or two if we find ourselves
Walking through, minding the old fence
There where the grass is the tallest
We won’t look back, we won’t be lost
We won’t look back
And if we don’t we won’t be lost
Oh don’t look back
And if you don’t you won’t be lost
I won’t look back, I know I won’t
I know I won’t be lost

Someday Soon
04:23

|
-- Lyrics --
Oh, calm hourglass
Night still overcast
This love cannot last
Even if your will has
Will you think of me?
Falling from your mind
Were you ever mine?
Did you think to ask
If I’ll be gone someday
Someday soon, someday soon?
I’ll be gone, I’ll be gone someday
Someday soon
Someday
Someday soon
Will you think of me?
Falling from your mind
Still there in the night
Still there when you ask
If we’ll be gone
We’ll be gone someday
Someday soon
Someday soon
We’ll be gone
We’ll be gone someday
Someday soon
Someday
Someday soon
Someday
Someday soon
Someday
Someday soon
Someday soon
Someday soon
Someday soon
