Amber Island - Nelward & HiP CoLouR

lately
the days all blend together
the same things
and melancholy nights

sunbeams
might change up the weather
but in my dreams i wonder where you are

(I wonder where you are)

You're just on the horizon
though i know not to indulge, darling
I'm looking high and low

For my gumdrops
I left them on the counter
gumdrops
someone hid the jar, darling

the simple pleasure keeps my last 2 brain cells
from wondering where you are

You saw me at the turnstile
And I said I'm doing fine, darling
In one word we said goodbye
That's the scene in my mind

As I eat my gumdrops
they taste so sweet and sour
Gumdrops
They're never very far, darling
the simple pleasure keeps my last 2 braincells
from wondering where you are

from my gumdrops
I left them on the counter
Gumdrops
someone hid the jar, darling
the simple pleasure keeps my last 2 brain cells
from wondering where you are

i wonder where you are
i gaze upon the stars
and wonder where you are
i wonder where you are

gumdrops

i am enamored by your love
i’m an animal, enamored by you

(who am I to deny your light? On your light I rely)  You’re the love by which I’m defined

I’m defined
  I am an island in the sky 
A denial of islands in you  (I’m the sun, I’m the moon I’m the sea But I’m bound by the trees)  
And I live to protect your peace
 All the time  

But I’m stuck in a tube 
I’m a bastard
The 2 dimensions in which I’m confined for all time

  I’m a sun, I’m a moon, I’m a tree 
Your light invigorates my leaves
But my longest branch can’t reach 

YOU know why I can’t be a seed
YOU KNOW THAT I’M STUCK IN A TUBE  

I’m a bastard
The two dimensions in which I’m confined
Are dooming me to choose from left or right
 Choose (your master) The metal pipe in which you will reside
For all time

TUBE

Girl I’m So Sorry Bro 
I’ve Been Thinking of the words to say
Bro I’m so sorry girl 
This is literally my first mistake
  I cringe just thinkin bout
How I fell on you and broke your face
(And now the angels know the error of my ways)

  Please take me at my word
Never meant to break into your house
I never realized
Just how bad it would be for my clout

(The winds of right and wrong have coalesced in shame) 
(I reprimand the deed I carry with my name)  
We could breathe a little deep in a 1,2,3
If some people had the courage to say
Girl I’m sorry bro
What can I do to repay

 We could get some more shit done in a 3,2,1
With some people who are willing to say
Bro I’m sorry girl
Forever and more always

  We could breathe a little deep in a 1,2,3
If some people had the courage to say 
Girl I’m sorry bro 
What can I do to repay
 On the same side of the sun in a 3,2,1
There’s the people who are too quick to cave

 Like I’m sorry girl, forever and more always 
Girl I’m sorry bro, what can I do to repay 
Bro I’m sorry girl, forever and more always
Girl I’m sorry bro, what can I do to repay

girl I'm so sorry bro

LYRICS

I'm more normal than you
I'm more normal than you
You could stare inside my window and see nothing new

I'm so normal it's true
Much more normal than you
You could stare inside my window and see nothing new

And in the morning I'm not horny
And nothing could abhor me
You'll never hear me yell

But when the night comes don't come for me

I'll be sleeping, 8 hours a day

I'm more normal than you,
I'm more normal than you
You could stare inside my window and see nothing new

I'm so normal it's true
Much more normal than you
You could write a song about it but you want this for you

Cause through it all I'm always happy
Out in the distance laughing
And calm at any cost

And every tragedy's a story
And shakespeare always bored me
But I'm sorry for your loss

And when the werewolf lunges for me,
Cover both my eyes, cover both my eyes
As I sleep

In my shadow,
Eight hours a night

I’m sleeping 8 hours a day
I’m breathing in any old way
I’m eating 3 meals a day
I’m cleaning what do you say
I’m driving just when I should
I’m thriving isn’t it good
I’m breathing wouldn’t you know
I’m bleeding don’t let it show

Normal (feat. Paige)

LYRICS:

I barely made it out of bed
The racing thoughts all through my head
Wish I could say "OK, you win, now pass through"

(Pass through, every time)

I'm made of bricks that weigh me down
and form the walls that shut me out
But every day some way, some how, I smash through

(Smash through, every time)

So when you tell me just to cheer up and smile more
You tell a story bout yourself you don't know
I hope one day that you don't feel the way I feel cause you would need twice the strength that you own

Smash thru, every time
Cause its the only way I know to reach the night, I'm sayin
Smash thru, it might be loud,
But its the only way I know to work things out

I had a hard time as a kid
And saw some shitty therapist
Who told me "Just don't worry bout it! Its just you"

(Just you, and no one else)

There's no solution that I know
But I know you're not alone
And through each day we're just like you
We smash through

(Smash through, every time)

So shut the fuck up when you tell me to smile more
You sound more ignorant than you even know
I hope one day that you don't feel the way I feel cause you would need twice the strength that you own

Smash thru, every time
Cause its the only way I know to reach the night, I'm sayin
Smash thru, it might be loud,
But its the only way I know to work things out

Smash, thru,
Every time,
Only way I know to reach the night, I'm sayin

Smash thru,
It might be loud,
But its the only way I know to work things out

Cause its the only way I know

Smash Thru (feat. Adron)

My balloon makes friends with all the trees
Every morning at the park
That was when I let him off his leash
Watched him fall into the sun

No balloon could ever take his place
I cried and cried consumed with grief
A slip of hand is really all it takes
Now he's watching over me
Now he's watching over me

Rubber shards among the soiled ground
Begging mercy from the sky
Cruel finality rings far and loud
Fragile sunflowers left behind

On the day you flew away from me
All the earth stood still and paused
Choirs now sing out in your memory
Cause you're watching over everyone
You're watching over everyone

Calling, I'm calling
Can you hear me, can you hear me
Falling, I'm falling
Please retrieve me, retrieve me

Calling, I'm calling
Can you hear me, please hear me
Falling, I'm falling
Please retrieve me, retrieve me

My Balloon

LYRICS:

The blood is bubbling from the lake where myths are made
The fish are screaming while you feed the queen the cake
The world champion of bingo sends regards
Congratulations, you're a fucking super star

Eat your dreams
(grow up to be like me)
Eat your dreams
(its well within your reach)

Eat your dreams
(grow up to be like me)
Eat your dreams
(its well within your reach)

You're so far up your ass you know just how it taste
To sell the platitude you put upon the plate
A stupid myth of knights and heroes long ago
Could not conceal the hamster wheel that fuels the show

To work 10 times as hard to feed the parasite
All when the starting line is miles and miles behind
The dream that never died because it was always fake
I'll have mine scattered covered smothered and erased

Eat your dreams
(grow up to be like me)
Eat your dreams
(its well within your reach)

Eat your dreams
(grow up to be like me)
Eat your dreams
(its well within your reach)

Eat your dreams, Eat your dreams
Eat your dreams, Eat your dreams

Eat your dreams, Eat your dreams
Eat your dreams, Eat your dreams

Eat your dreams

Eat Your Dreams

I want you to take me all the way out, all the way in
I need you to take me all the way out, all the way in
I want you to break me all the way out, all the way in
I need you to break me all the way out, all the way in

All the way out, all the way in
All the way out, all the way in
All the way out, all the way in
All the way out, all the way in

Cause everything up to now couldn't feel it
And everything up to now couldn't hear it

Cause everything up to now couldn't feel it
And everything up to now couldn't feel it
And everything up to now couldn't feel it
And everything up to now
And everything up to now

All The Way In

when the day becomes the night
something else consumes my sight
every full moon must collide
as the sirens silence all the violins

where's the wolf that's feeding on the hounds?
where's the wolf that's feeding on the hounds?

in the days of stone and ice
heard that rainfall out of sight
now your game's in broad daylight

when the violins silence all the sirens you set off
you did this to yourself
thought that you could rig the game and no one would tell
you said a beast was on the loose
and maybe that was true
cause now we know that all this time the werewolf was you
the werewolf was you

the werewolf was you

when the violins silence all the sirens you set off
you did this to yourself
thought that you could rig the game and rob us to hell
you said a beast was on the loose
and maybe that was true
cause in the end we all found out the werewolf was you
the werewolf was you

you're the wolf that's feeding on the hounds
you're the wolf that's feeding on the hounds
