relevant.

In the face
Of change
That’s when she turned to me and said
“I’m not sure anymore”

And there
Amidst the waves and the cloudless skies
That blanket the year before
I watch my life wash ashore

Have you ever been a part of something
That you thought would never end?
And then, of course it did
Have you ever felt the weight inside you
Pulling away inside your skin?
And then something had to give

Now the lines are drawn
Is this feeling gone?
The best parts of this have come and gone
And now that is all this is
With the reasons clear
We’ll spend another year
Without direction, full of fear
And now things will be different

There’s nothing simple when it comes to you and I
Always something in this everchanging life
And there probably always will
Now that time is getting harder to come by,
The same arguments are always on our mind
{We’ve} killed this slowly fading light

Now the lines are drawn
Is this feeling gone?
The best parts of this have come and gone
And now that is all this is
With the reasons clear
We’ll spend another year
Without direction, full of fear
But now things will be different

And now something
Has kept me here too long
And you can’t leave me
If I’m already gone

Well now something (hey)
Has kept me here too long
And you can’t leave me (hey)
If I’m already gone

Now let’s say that something (hey)
Has kept me here too long
And you can’t leave me (hey)
If I’m already gone

And we make the same mistakes
We’re always hanging on
Break the promises we’re always leaning on
All this time spent waking up
{Now I} keep this line open to get this call from you
{As you} speak the words that keep me coming back to you
Now this time it’s all different

Now something
Has kept me here too long
And now I’m gone

Never Gonna Fall In Love Again

"Something snapped me out of a dream that I was having
I'd falled down an elevator shaft but now I'm back again
Tidying up after the fight we had
Happy with yourself?
Well, you've never looked so satisfied
Teasing me with stuff like a spolit little brother
You finished yet?
Have you got what you really want?"

Old Enough

There, maybe when you’re old enough
You’ll realize you’re not so tough
And some days the seas get rough
And you’ll see

You’re too young to have it figured out
You think you know what you’re talking about
You think it will all work itself out
But we’ll see

When I was young I thought I knew
You probably think you know too
Do you? Well do you?
I was naïve just like you
I thought I knew exactly what I wanted to do
Well, what’s you gonna do?
