whoisarti - will u ever?

Oh deep blue sea
Swallow me
Pull me under

Oh deep blue sea
You satiate
A kind of hunger

I won't lie
I've been fooled once before
But the cold in you
Attracts the seeker

I'm alright
I've been played once before
But the dark in you
Draws in my stupor

Oh deep blue sea
Your soft currents
Enrobes my body

Oh deep blue sea
I breathe you in
As you release me

Oh deep blue sea
Swallow me
Pull me under

Oh deep blue sea
Swallow me
Pull me under

Tough Love Will Get Us By

Deep Blue Sea

Collide
All i wanna do is collide
Even when your walls are high
Let me entwine

Collide
Your soft curves in the night
With each word that I write
Will you entwine

We glide
Tell me all with your eyes
Whispers and lullabies
You're Divine

Collide
Butterflies flying high
Tide pools flowing by
We're entwined


Collide


I let all my guards down
There's no turning around
A crisp breaking dawn
You're gone

Collide
All I wanna do is collide
Only if you don't mind
Do you mind?

Collide

On a construit des passerelles Marché même blessé
On a fait la sentinelle
De nos pas enchaînés
Elles ont coulé nos fontaines Ces larmes de beauté
On a donné tout c'qu'on aime À la volonté

(CHORUS)
"Tiens bon la barre
Et tiens bon le vent"
C'est c'qu'on chantait Quand nous avions 15 ans C'est c'qu'on chantait Nous étions insouciants C'est c'qu'on chantait J'aimerais arrêter le temps
On a partagé nos peines
Nos difficultés
Et ces vagues se déchaînent Pure et sans regrets
Et ce bateau qui freine
La mer agitée
Mais nous tenons tout de même Nos voiles élevées
"Tiens bon la barre
Et tiens bon le vent"
C'est c'qu'on chantait Quand nous avions 15 ans C'est c'qu'on chantait Nous étions insouciants C'est c'qu'on chantait J'aimerais arrêter le temps
On a construit des passerelles Montagnes grimpées
Des plis velours et de laine
Du dur d'acier
Des chemins où s'y promènent Nos mots épargnés
"Tiens bon" dit le capitaine L'essentiel est d'aimer
Oui tiens bon dit le capitaine
L'essentiel est d'aimer
"Tiens bon la barre
Et tiens bon le vent"
C'est c'qu'on chantait Quand nous avions 15 ans C'est c'qu'on chantait Nous étions insouciants C'est c'qu'on chantait J'aimerais arrêter le temps
Oui Papa, j'aimerais arrêter le temps

Le Temps

Thousands of years ago we stood
Monuments of stone lifted high
Prisms of light honored the sky
The fresh smell of a world anew

With our delusions and our fears
Our courage forged a path so clear
We built and built, bypassed the Gods
Lest we might succumb to their thoughts

Ooooooo
Can anyone tell me now
have we lost it all?
Ooooooo
Can anyone tell me now
Is this our final call?

You've been asking about times past
But I could not offer advice
We're only just passengers here
The milky way, the stratosphere

You've been asking to pave a road
One without constraints or unknowns
But our despair has taken toll
We bare the silence under bombs

Ooooooo
Can anyone tell me now
have we lost it all?
Ooooooo
Can anyone tell me now
Is this our final call?

Lost It All

You came running to pick up my broken bones
Giving me way for a better tomorrow
You rise above when I'm feeling down low
Clenching my teeth you hand me a rose

All of the ripples now
Who tought them how to swim
I watch them wavering
Could learn a thing from them

Only the daydreamers
Are catching raindrops in air
Dancing without a care
Could I be more like them?

A thin crescent moon was shining down on me
We sang a tune or two and we dipped in the spring
The clouds above us like UFOs in the sky
Watching our desires as we gave us another try

All of the ripples now
Who tought them how to swim
I watch them wavering
Could learn a thing from them

Only the daydreamers
Are catching raindrops in air
Dancing without a care
Could I be more like them

Ripples

Did we outgrow our time
Walking on the fault line
Watching the egrets standing by

Did the fire inside die out
Without a warning, full blackout
Tugging at strings we left behind

And I'll be gone in the morning
Before the thick fog rolls in
Let the tides pull on this heart

The way you once drew me in
As shapes in the sand dissapear
I'll be on my way again

I took my guitar and my keys
I left you resting in a dream
As I went signing to the breeze

Only the ocean understands
How the free birds above it dance
Was I destined to love in threes

Drove through the green rolling hills
California's seen so much
Lovers I've hurt, hearts I've touched

I am learning to sit still
California slow me down
Before I catch feelings by sundown

Slow Me Down

I washed up on your shore
Sandcastles standing tall
Creeped up in your feelings
Did you notice?

Its in the sound of your voice
The tone of your syllables
The way you breathe when you're nervous
when you're nervous

You glance at me from the corner
I try not to be a bother
These feelings got me upside down
All twisted around

And when all my ships have sailed
When theres nothing left for us to say
Only gusts of wind onto dust
These little tales of us

I climbed out of your mind
When you were too scared to find
Your shadow chasing me out
Your self doubt

Maybe you'll give me a chance
Maybe you'll try in the end
Cause we can still work it out
Yeah work it out

And when all my ships have sailed
When theres nothing left for us to say
Only gusts of wind onto dust
These little tales of us

And give up your ghosts
Let the turbulence pass
Open your door
Surrender to your past
And we will rock
While this boat is afloat
And if you fall
I will hand you my rope

And when all my ships have sailed
When theres nothing left for us to say
Only gusts of wind onto dust
These little tales of us

Tales Of Us

The wind ruffles in the leaves
You plead with me please
Don't go
Above these vacant rooms abound
The queen left the grounds
I don't know

When the levee will break
When troubles dissipate
Cause I've seen the world in pieces
Lifted all the veils

I know tough love will get us by

I kept your promises along
But I held my tongue
When it got cold
The rains washed away my pains
Deserted hearts again
I don't know

When the levee will break
When troubles dissipate
Cause I've seen the world in pieces
Lifted all the veils

I know tough love will get us by

We dont have to move mountains
We just need a little more time
To carry out our same burdens

We don't have to stay forever
Just long enough for this crowd
To want to sing our praises

We don't have to heal, fully
Leave the salt on the papercut
This bottle is now empty

We don't have to be perfect
Standing up just a little taller
While the hounds chase our weakness

We painted the old grove with love
Swung under the trees til dusk
You said nothing lasts forever
Dug a hole in the ground
Buried our hearts

We don't have to cling
To one another
Even after all these years
To want to grow old together

We don't have to say goodbye
The fury of the emptiness
Only three thousand miles

We don't have to kiss goodnight
I'll leave the light on when you're gone
It's only for a while

We painted the old grove with love
Swung under the trees til dusk
You said nothing lasts forever
Dug a hole in the ground
Buried our hearts
