pain

lyrics:

I see your silhouette
dancing in the backyard
you told me you’ll come back
when I no longer feel like a child

the road doesn’t stop here
and on the left side I see the tree
we used to climb
when we were six just you and me
when we were six just you and me

I see your silhouette
it faded in and now it fades out
I wonder now, what could have been
if we believed when we were young

I see you down the street
a little kid there by your side
life moves so differently
when you no longer feel like a child
yeah I no longer feel like a child

I see your silhouette
it faded in and now it fades out
I wonder now what could have been
if we believed when we were young
when we were young
when we were young
when we were young
if we believed when we were young
if we believed when we were young

lyrics:
the days are getting short
but I don’t mind
the lines that lead me to
this moment I can’t
change in a minute
but why would I still
change my decisions
yeah I don’t find the will

'cause I’m nobody
I’m nobody
nobody
I'm nobody

the rules that I break they
come to the famed end
nothing feels the same
nothing makes the way
for better days
one last look in the mirror
so who am I again?

I’m nobody
I’m nobody
nobody
I’m nobody

I screamed out before
that I’ll never now
how to keep going on
I screamed out before
that I’ll never now
what the hell is going on

'cause I’m nobody

nobody

do you call your mother
when she’s home 
waiting for anyone
do you wait for the other
day to be gone 
tomorrow’s son

now we stay
in different towns
evening fades
won’t you call her now 

do you call your father
is he safe
don’t waste another day
do you feel alone
an unbound train
let him lead the way home

now we stay
in different towns
evening fades
won’t you call him now?
call him now

heal the morn
heal the night
the time is running child
nothing more
it’s not a fight
call them now
call them now

now we stay
in different towns
now we stay

towns

i’m holding on when the wind blows
i'm holding on to the past
i can’t let go of the things
that are not coming back

i'm skipping through the pages
i scribbled down in other state
i saw your name for a while
i felt like a child again

for the last while
for the last while

and i can’t decide
what hurts me more
burning inside
or memories old
memories old

i’m holding on when the rain falls
one last cigarette
is solace a thing
when everyone’s left

for the last while
for the last while

and i can’t decide
what hurts me more
burning inside
or memories old
memories old
i felt divine
the games that i played
and if the world fades
yeah if my world fades

can i feel like a child again
feel like i child again

and i can’t decide
what hurts me more
burning inside
or memories old
memories old
i felt divine
the games that i played
and if the world fades
yeah if my world fades
can i feel like a child again

last cigarette

i think of all the lives
the lives that have come
and sometimes in the dark i cry
for the lives that have gone

an image in my mind
hey grandpa it’s been years
your face fades away but
i won’t let it disappear

i hold onto the words 
i said when i was young
a promise to the gods and one
promise to my mom

i waiver the nights
i waiver the days
i wave with the cold lone arms
i waiver this place

i waiver the nights
i waiver the days
i wave with the cold lone arms
i waiver this place

promise

she took the chance
and so did he with a clearer sense
staring at a photograph
of a younger self

'cause older days
flowing in familiar stream
made them see the darker theme
pulling all the way

silence it’s so strange
tame it had to hate the change
and unstained love won’t ever be the same

tethered hope
like a golden lining on china glass
pulling on until the last
pulling them together
holding them together
the gaps they amassed

silence it’s so strange
tame it had to hate the change
and unstained love

silence it’s so strange
tame it had to hate the change
and unstained love won't ever be the same
no they won’t ever be the same

unstained love

eavesdropping on
conversations past
free falling from
heaven takes no liars
those stories old
you should change them while
anyone listens
anyone cares for now, for now

who will hold the pass
so that no one comes
boatman shows the way
he’ll call for us

time passes on
each year is tired
and the lune is gone
sky without his pride and he cried

who will hold the pass
so that no one comes
boatman shows the way
he’ll call for us

so can you hold on
can you hold on
can you hold on
can you hold on

who will hold the pass
so that no one comes
boatman shows the way
he’ll call for us

so can you hold on
can you hold on
can you hold on
can you hold on
so can you hold on
can you hold on
can you hold on
can you hold on

i feel so calm
in this small town
hearing sounds
of roaring waves
my childhood love
met her yesterday
she brought me back
to the time

when i felt safer
and my dad
was my upstairs neighbour
and the sea
and the sea
kept secrets from me

empty house
i feel lost
in this town
that i have known
people fade
in the waves
and my love
takes me back

to the time when I felt safer
and my dad
was my upstairs neighbour
and the sea
and the sea
kept secrets from me

when I felt safer
my dad
was my upstairs neighbour
and the sea
and the sea
kept secrets from me

my heart’s jaded
my arms grow tired
the future’s faded
but I don’t mind
lonely faces
in the crowd
in the crowd

am I fated
to only see
you emma in places
in colourless dreams
in empty faces
that look down at me
that look down at me

it won’t matter who we are
if I see you every time
I get drunk
yeah I won’t cry
I swear I won’t cry

am I fated
am I doomed
just for waiting
just in flumes
lovebirds singing
I can’t carry their tune
can’t carry their tune

it won’t matter who we are
if I see you every time
I get drunk
yeah I won’t cry

it won’t matter who we are
if I see you every time
I get drunk
yeah I won’t cry
I swear I won’t cry

it’s so wild
to think of you now

emma

i’m driving home
driving alone
i’m coming now
empty house
nobody’s there
nobody’s arms

my heart breaks
it’s too late
the tv’s on
but i don’t care
this life is not
what i crave

why you’re still on my mind
my eye’s heavy and i feel so tired
i don’t care what we left behind
silently, i cry at night
i don’t sleep cause i don’t have time
with you still there on my mind

a new day
i stay
driving in
the same lane
until i die
or my car breaks

why you’re still on my mind
my eye’s heavy and i feel so tired
i don’t care what we left behind
silently, i cry at night
i don’t sleep cause i don’t have time
with you still there on my mind

i never know
where i go
i need you now
i'm running low
i'm running low

why you’re still on my mind
my eye’s heavy and i feel so tired
i don’t care what we left behind
silently, i cry at night
i don’t sleep cause i don’t have time
with you still there on my mind

driving

i'll be on the wayside
waiting for the breeze
the one who never sleeps

counting 'till the days i
feel my foot bleed
i'm walking down the street

i think i waited
one day too long
i miss all i owned

i'm turning right now
to the wayside inn
yeah, i'm turning in

wayside

I see your silhouette
dancing in the backyard
you told me you’ll come back
when I no longer see like a child

the road doesn’t stop here
and on the left side I see the tree
we used to climb
when we were safe just you and me
when we were safe just you and me

I see your silhouette
it faded in and now it fades out
I wonder now, what could have been
if we believed when we were young

I see you down the street
a little kid there by your side
life moves so differently
when you no longer see like a child
yeah I no longer see like a child

I see your silhouette
it faded in and now it fades out
I wonder now what could have been
if we believed when we were young
when we were young
when we were young
when we were young
if we believed when we were young
if we believed when we were young
