Said we’ll start slow You gotta have somewhere to go If you push, if you push, it’ll all go to pieces Said we’ll start small Pretend like nothing’s there at all Til the ground, til the ground starts to shake underneath us But This isn’t over, over yet This isn’t half of what you’ll get This isn’t over, over let me show you Where it’s going I love a quiet Room for playing hard to get When the light, when the light from the window is fading I love your lips I love the oh, inevitable kiss When you breathe, when you breathe with the effort of waiting Ah, ah, ah, ah... The deep blue sea Is tame compared to you and me When we fell, when we fell, we fell hard in a hurry

Happy 03:38
It was a stupid mistake I’ve played it over again I felt it starting to break but oh what a storm we were in Leveled us both with a crash You sped away in the dark And I’ve only driven me mad replaying how we came apart -But I’m gonna be happy without you around I’ll figure it out And I’m gonna be happy just give me some time I'm gonna be fine I fell to pieces for you and everything we couldn’t weather and how there was nothing we could do this time that would make it all better And I’ve heard a lot of good lies But there’s one I could never quite shake: that sorrow’s some kind of good sign I should carry with me to the grave This is everything I hoped I’d find a way to say to you: Darling, it’s a shame I couldn’t be a better place for you but I can’t love by self-destruct I’ve gotta give it up
3.
Oh No 04:11
Maybe I never said a single thing that mattered Until you left, and I guess suddenly I had to I never had a better reason to look stupid Than I have now; if you ask anything, I'll do it Oh no, is it so old now? Oh no, is it so old now that we can't bail this sinking ship out? that we can’t bail this sinking ship out If I had a plane, I'd fly us out to some beginning Wipe everything clean, maybe find out what I've been missing If I had a drum, baby, I’d thunder through the side streets Wake everyone just to see you, beautiful, beside me Oh no Oh no If I was a king and I thought you were into romance I'd make a scene, a choir would sing, and we would slow dance Too little too late, won't make it okay What's taken me years and years to say Well it won't make you stay It won't make you stay Oh no -
4.
What I Need 04:09
You said we should fight how this is Going, going nowhere Darling, being here feels just like breathing, breathing cold air -- Hollywood and magazine -- There’s one, there’s one good ending And you could give me everything but you could never give me What I need, is to say something I really mean What I need's something more than what I'll never be I was only trying to find a way out, a way through this mess You said it’s as long and wide as my own, my forgiveness You said years from now we’ll both be softly, softly sleeping and I’ll have some defining dream and wake up, wake up breathing
5.
Pieces 03:00
Figured it out, I should have figured it out by now It’s nothing but a wish, oh we all dream of something greater Ever a doubt, if there was ever any doubt You find out what you are, yeah, you find out sooner or later Kept my mouth shut, I should have kept my mouth shut baby It’s nothing but trouble - oh, it’s had me here before No matter what, no matter what I hear me saying It’s never what I should have said on the other side of your door Pieces, I’m in pieces I’m in pieces Let it all go, I should have let it all go Me and all my taking myself so seriously Enough to know, you’ve been around enough to know I’d make a mess of plenty more if it was up to me Pieces, I’m in pieces I’m in pieces, I’m invisible Pieces, I’m in pieces I’m in pieces I’m invisible The same lies, the same fears I don’t hide; I disappear I close my eyes; no one’s here I say I’m fine that’s what you want to hear It’s what you want to hear
6.
Lay your head down, dear There's no sorrow here Only time for letting go And room for landing light as snow The gentle daylight fading slow My murmur soft and whisper low So lay your head down So lay your head down Lay your head down, dear There’s no sorrow here Only time for starry skies And room for long and languid sighs A gentle dream to close your eyes A night to fall, a moon to rise So lay your head down So lay your head down Lay your head down, dear There's no sorrow here Only time for falling in And room for shadows dark and dim A gentle song to soft begin Your breathing out, your breathing in So lay your head down So lay your head down
7.
Blame Me 02:50
Honey, you’re gonna have to come home sometime I can’t seem to leave good enough alone this time And maybe, it’s the same thing I’ve always fallen for - Waiting for it all to change when it’s long been done for It’s a long, long, long way from what we thought it’d be You can blame me Nothing but a too quiet night back here I kind of miss the kind that ended with a fight and mad tears I got everything backwards; no use in pretending I was anything half as good as you were to me then And you can add this to all my stupid apologies The ones I thought I knew how to make you believe Cause there’s not anything, anything I want you to be but here, here, here
8.
Christopher 04:27
Christopher is always in his head, she said I think it came without a sound - The world woke up and he broke down Christopher was always good with the girls, she said But even so I never saw him fall in love with one at all When he's tired, she said he always goes down When he's tired, she said he always goes down he always goes downstairs Christopher was never wild. He's glad, she said His father was a stupid man, says Christopher, and so began His goal just to be better than some long-gone, no-good, stupid man He could have made a better plan He should have made a better plan Christopher would burrow deep if he could, she said Somewhere far away from here And sleep until he disappeared When he's tired, she said he always goes downstairs We don't see him for hours for hours, for hours
9.
I’m afraid I’ll never be strong enough to carry me Such a long and desert ride So quick ahead, so few beside I don’t think I’ve ever felt a peace when I am by myself These darker rooms and silences leave most of us afraid, I guess And hoping with each passing mess we’ll feel it all a little less Hoping with each passing mess we’ll feel it all a little less The best things are the hardest sell We mostly love, then run like hell It’s easier to let it go - to leave before you’re left alone So every friend looks like a foe, and every bow feels like blow So every friend looks like a foe, and every bow feels like blow Maybe I’ve said far too much These stories aren’t for young and trusting little souls who fall asleep with foes and blows drawn in their dreams So take a breath and let it be We’ll say it’s all just make-believe Take a breath and let it be We’ll say it’s all just make-believe I’m afraid I’ll never be strong enough to carry me I don’t mean to frighten you Just need someone to say it to
10.
All 03:07
Some days I hear them whisper in my head Every word I wish I’d never said Growing up and old like one long fall All leading up to something much too small But it’s all I need Truth or dare, I pulled on every thread Wrote my prayers until my fingers bled I laughed at every lie I thought I’d seen It leaves so little space for one to dream But it’s all I need I’m just afraid there’s nothing left to find I left a thousand miracles behind Still looking back for something to appear Still saying prayers in case someone might hear It’s all I need
11.
Ways To Go 03:50
I keep listening; I never hear a thing I’ve been holding my breath, imagining I’ve only wanted a sign, a sign, anything I keep waiting, but nothing ever comes I keep hoping for my turn – like everyone Cause don’t it seem like you start, you start and then you’re done Ooo, it’s too late Ooo, for mistakes And too many ways to go Oh, oh, oh I read too many books, maybe, when I was young I fell in love with the ride into a setting sun I’ve never run out of things of things I should’ve done Oh is everybody like me? Cautious, barely breathing like me? Waiting for some thing that might be Nowhere Nowhere at all
