B a c k r o a d s
{Verse 1}
Taking back roads as we wander
Down to the oceans sandy water
I drove my car, you next to me
Your hand out the window
Feeling the breeze
So little it takes to leave behind
The early stages of our lives
Since when did nights like these
Become so hard to find
There’s nothing I would trade for this
Cause nothing can replace this
Nothing I would trade for this
{Chorus}
Just stay until the morning is in bloom
And all of the colors are shining through
They light up the windows across my room
As I lie with you
{Verse 2}
Others say that it’s overrated
But all their thoughts are so jaded
They lack substance that we crave
Their all just insects trapped in cages
It’s not like anything I’ve ever seen before
The best times in our life we find when we’re bored
{Chorus}
Just stay until the morning is in bloom
And all of the colors are shining through
They light up the windows across my room
As I lie with you
{Bridge}
Don’t break this down
(and through it all)
You keep my head in the clouds
(and through it all)
Don’t break this down
You keep my head in the clouds
{Chorus}
Just stay until the morning is in bloom
And all of the colors are shining through
They light up the windows across my room
As I lie with you
Just stay until the morning is in bloom
And all of the colors are shining through
They light up the windows across my room
As I lie with you
Just stay until the morning is in bloom
And all of the colors are shining through
They light up the windows across my room
As I lie with you
Blank Pages
N o w h e r e
{Verse 1}
If only I could say something
That I really mean
I’d make it out alive
And find a way to quit this scene
You read me like a book
But all of my pages are blank
You know all of my looks
And my thoughts before I think
{Chorus}
Set me on fire
Just to watch me go up in flames
I’ll give you the lighter
Take pleasure from my own pain
{Verse 2}
If only I could say something
And you seemed to really care
I could take your breath away
For once you’d be so happy that I’m here
You read me like a book
But all of my pages are blank
You know all of my looks
And my thoughts before I think
{Chorus}
Set me on fire
Just to watch me go up in flames
I’ll give you the lighter
Take pleasure from my own pain
{Bridge}
To see you smile
I’ll throw my life away, away
I’m running on broken faith and
I’m caught up
Running on broken faith and
I’m caught up
Running on broken faith now
I’m caught up
Running on broken faith
Now I’m caught up
Running on broken faith and
I’m caught up
Running on broken faith and
I’m caught up
Running on broken faith now
I’m caught up
Running on broken faith
{Chorus}
Set me on fire
Just to watch me go up in flames
I’ll give you the lighter
Take pleasure from my own pain
{Verse 1}
This stairway
Splits this house in two
And my gaze
Was something I once knew
{Chorus}
In more ways than one
I am undone
But I never feel this as you lay
At my side
Here tonight
As the sun it starts to slowly fade
I’m not who you think I am
No I’m not who you think I am
{Verse 2}
Baby just give me a chance
To be everything you saw in that man
He’s still inside
Just tryna make his way into the light
I’m getting tired of this game we play Stop making me beg you to stay
This road it goes both ways
{Chorus}
In more ways than one
I am undone
But I never feel this as you lay
At my side
Here tonight
As the sun it starts to slowly fade
I’m not who you think I am
No I’m not who you think I am
{Outro}
Carry me on through this dream
Keep me in this galaxy baby
Take my soul and set it free
Promise me I won’t be wasted
I wish I knew
(carry me on through this dream, keep me in this galaxy baby)
Just how to tell you
That you’re my angel here
(Take my soul and set it free, promise me I won’t be wasted)
You keep me safe
My dear
Take Me Where You Wanna go
M y A n g e l
{Verse 1}
I know one day your face will fade
From the weakness of my memory
So while I’ve still got you here with me
Take me where you wanna go
Let’s leave it all behind
And drive the backroads
I’m sure
That you know
Why I won’t
I’m sure
That you know
Why I won’t
Let go
{Chorus}
I’m just an overthinker
Who’s bound to lose
I’m an entertainer
So used to the abuse
But I find comfort
In your eyes
They keep me safe
From the scars on my body
How I once kept
The demons at bay
The demons at bay
{Verse 2}
I know one day
You body will soon
Become just a distant memory
Even as I try to hold on
We moved apart
It gets so hard
To keep in touch
And stay in love
I’m doing my best not to
Fuck this one up
I’ve gotta be sure
That you know
That I won’t
I gotta be sure
That you know
That I won’t
Let go
{Chorus}
I’m just an overthinker
Who’s bound to lose
I’m an entertainer
So used to the abuse
But I find comfort
In your eyes
They keep me safe
From the scars on my body
How I once kept
The demons at bay
The demons at bay
{Bridge}
It matters to me
It matters to me
It matters to me
It matters to me
It matters to me
It matters to me
It matters to me
It matters to me
It matters to me
It matters to me
It matters to me
It matters to me
{Chorus}
I’m just an overthinker
Who’s bound to lose
I’m an entertainer
So used to the abuse
But I find comfort
In your eyes
They keep me safe
From the scars on my body
How I once kept
The demons at bay
{Verse 1}
Always so naive as a child
I was sure
I’d never see you go
But now it’s been quite a while
And soon it’s me
Who will grow old
{Chorus}
Now I’m alone
Or it just feels this way
I’m just a human being
Who’s trying not to break
I wish this devil beside me
Would leave me alone
I’m just an astronaut
Who’s tryna make his way home
And you’re my angel
Now you’re my angel
{Verse 2}
This subject here
So close to me
Has always been something
Of which I could never speak
Can’t let anyone
Too close to me
Cause I’m too scared
You might leave
{Chorus}
Now I’m alone
Or it just feels this way
I’m just a human being
Who’s trying not to break
I wish this devil beside me
Would leave me alone
I’m just an astronaut
Who’s tryna make his way home
And you’re my angel
Now you’re my angel
You’re my angel
You are my angel
