'i had a dream the other night
there was something right in front of me
i couldn't touch it
but i heard it say something
then, when i woke up
there were millions of them clawing me
i started screaming
but nobody there heard me
thought for a minute
then i headed straight for the door
could feel them breathing on my neck
turned the key too slow
reached for the handle
but somebody grabbed me, took hold
i tried to leave
they wouldn't let me go

45 or a minute
couldn't tell for a minute
couldn't be for sure

been running all my life
just hoping to hit something
now maybe no disguise
could make us disappear
we stumble through the lights
like every moment comes in
carrying the weight 
of all that brought us here
baby, we'll be waves
breaking in a chorus
blood burning our veins
lit like fireworks
someday we could escape
before they even saw us
caught us
and that's all i ever wanted
i ever wanted

went for a walk to clear my head
but i was spotted by a gang of ghosts
i've seen them all my life
i never run from them
one pointed at me
told me that my light was always close
and that i shouldn't ever be afraid again
i felt my skin
it didn't feel a lot like before
could hear the breeze yell at my back
calling me to go
the neon twisted up in knots 
as we all collide
i set my heart down
in the falling tide

45 or a minute
couldn't tell for a minute
couldn't be for sure

been running all my life
just hoping to hit something
now maybe no disguise
could make us disappear
we stumble through the lights
like every moment comes in
carrying the weight 
of all that brought us here
baby, we'll be waves
breaking in a chorus
blood burning our veins
lit like fireworks
someday we could escape
before they even saw us
caught us
and that's all i ever wanted
i ever wanted ... '

be still, my fading confidence
it's all design then consequence
when all i do is make no sense 
there's you
get born into this world to break
could borderline be your mistake
or i could be the chance you take, come true

if you see my heart
oh my heart
would you take it,
hold me tonight, turn me loose ?
if you see my heart
oh my heart
don't you break it on me
don't try to console me
there just ain't no use

lost all my faith, no self control
ran for escape to break the hold
lonely,
could never wait to be set down
if stalling is all that it is
i'd lead the race, no bandages
could cover up the traces
we'd be found


if you see my heart
oh my heart
would you take it,
hold me tonight, turn me loose ?
if you see my heart
oh my heart
don't you break it on me
don't try to console me
there just ain't no use

well i never felt no love before
like my heart was fallen, on the floor
like i waited but it's on the line
it's on the line
and it's funny, never worked it out
ain't nobody ever had no doubts
that we're stars and shine 'til we burn out
and time is time


if you see my heart
oh my heart
would you take it,
hold me tonight, turn me loose ?
if you see my heart
oh my heart
don't you break it on me
don't try to console me
there just ain't no use


IF YOU SEE MY HEART (album mix)

WHEN I HAD YOU WITH ME

AFTER ALL THIS TIME

Lyrics:
The lights are out, but I’m still tossin’ about
Yeah my minds on the run, can’t slow it down
But still somehow, I’m feelin’ like

Whoa oh, whoa oh
Whoa oh yeah

Yeah I’m busy at night, but I’ll get you sometime
But you’re never in sight, whoa ain’t that my life
But still somehow, I’m feelin’ like

Whoa oh, whoa oh
Whoa oh yeah

But I don’t need it all
No I don’t need it all
I don’t need it all,
Cause we’ve already got it all

Whoa oh, whoa oh
Whoa oh yeah

Feelin' Like

Still looking for a brighter day 
But what a day it’s been, yeah 
And what a week it’s been 
And though I’m feeling empty 
I’ma keep breathing, hey 
I know that we can win, yeah 
I know that we can win  

Everyday feels like I’m tired of feeling 
And I’m tired of dreaming of a future I barely believe in but
I find relief amongst the stars in the sky, 
Mis antepasados diciéndome 'I gotta stay I gotta win the fight'
For everything that I believe in,
For truth, justice, and equity across the land 
The system pushes lies telling us that we are enemies 
When all we wanted was a brighter day for our families 

A brighter day, a brighter day
A brighter day, a brighter day

Still searching for a brighter day 
But what a day it’s been, yeah 
And what a year it’s been 
Deep in the struggle but Im’a keep breathing, hey 
I know that we can win yeah, 
I know that we will win 
I know my people been beaten but we keep on singing  

Dum da da da dum deh
Dum da da deedee dum
Bum ba ba dede doo ya
Bum ba ba doo doo doo yeah
Da da bam dada bam
Da da badum dee
Ba da da dadum dee, ho

A brighter day, a brighter day
A brighter day, a brighter day
A brighter day, a brighter day
A brighter day, a brighter day
