I've got problems no one here can relate
now and then I cant trust myself to behave
the downside to the upside of this fate
is that after the highest of highs the lows they just permeate

And then here comes the fire
I see it shining 
inside these walls 
narrow and frightening
here comes the thunder here comes the lightning

I've got problems no one here can relate
now and then I kinda find it hard to sustain
the downside to the upside of this fate
is that after the highest of highs the lows they aren't great

because here comes the fire
I see it shining
inside these walls
narrow and frightening 
here comes the thunder here comes the lightning

(Chorus)
What a long way to go just to see
I'm not who I was I'm not who I thought I would be
but I'm on my way
ya I'm on my way
I'm on my way

I'm a jack of all trades
master of none
you wanna hurry up baby I might show you how its done
I'm a jack of all trades
master of none
you wanna hurry up baby I might show you how done
I can show you how its done

Oh what a long way to go just to see
I'm not who I was
I'm not who I thought I would be
Oh what a long way to go just to see
I'm not who I was
I'm not who I thought I would be
But I'm on my way
Ya I'm on my way
I'm on my way


Here Comes the Fire

My Love Leave

I used to think death was ugly
and unforgiving
cause we all go there
floating around on this earthly abyss
we all seem to forget life is lovely

I wanna be the last person alive
just to see it all go in the end
and you can believe what it is that you want
but im kinda fucked up about it

Falling into something soft
falling into something soft
falling into something soft

Oh forward leaning over the tops
of the walls you put up when you're not willing
if only a beauty like hers could emit 
you might seem to forget life is short

I wanna be the last person alive
just to see it all go in the end
and you can believe what it is that you want
but I'm kinda fucked up about it

Falling into something soft
falling into something soft
falling into something soft
Falling....falling....
falling..into something soft


Falling Into Something Soft

You say the wrong words
just when I need them to be right
I'm no longer listening
I've spent time
running round in circles in my mind
and its so overwhelming
I'm all the way back down

When I'm lost
but I do my best when I'm breathing out and breathing in
I'm lost but
I do my best when I'm breathing out and breathing in
I'm breathing in

You say the wrong words
just when I need them to be right
I've made my opinions clear
I've spent time
running from the things I Cannot hide from
and its so overwhelming
I'm all the way back down

When I'm lost but 
I do my best when I'm breathing out and breathing in
I'm lost but
I do my best when I'm breathing out and breathing in 
my best when I'm breathing out and breathing in

So one more chance before I say goodbye
will you really come and meet me when both of us die
somewhere in the great beyond
will there really be something waiting in the sky

So give me a sign give me a sign
tell me does this happen to you
give me a sign give me a sign 
tell me what I gotta hold on to

One more chance before I say goodbye one more chance before I say good bye
Give me a sign give me a sign give me a sign give me a sign give me a sign give me


Signs

I find even in one moment everything could change
no use tryin to explain things they never stay the same

And I'm right
I can feel it on the inside
this pain will subside
subside

And I climbed the highest mountain tops
Just to find the air was thing
and my eyes bulged out my head
and my heart almost exploded
(la da dee da dee da)

I find even in one moment
Everything could change
everything could change

And I'm right I can feel it on the inside
this pain will subside
subside

And I climbed the highest mountains 
just to find the air was thin
and my eyes bulged out my head
and my heart
and my heart
and my heart
my heart almost exploded

I find even in one moment
everything could change


One Moment

Out on this sail boat 
far from dry land I am trapped
far from the shore I can't see anything
it's all black

Tidal wave twenty feet could be right by me now
fogs all around I can't see..

This wasn't eternity it didn't look good on me I'm turning back
I've made up my mind this time
I just don't wanna die
I will attack oh
this wasn't eternity it didn't look good on me then no

I've been around a while I've seen some things you wouldn't wanna see
and I've been the barer of bad news
this is something I hold heavy
but I have realized that inner strength and paradise
comes with deaths welcoming

Well this wasn't eternity it didn't look good on me
I'm turning back 
I've made up my mind this time I'm just not gonna die
I will attack
well this wasn't eternity it didn't look good on me then
this wasn't eternity it didn't look good on me then

And you take your lies and you turn them with all you got
and you take your crimes and you burn them with all you got
it's a long road
down if
you wanna lie
but we all die

out on this sail boat far from dry land I am
trapped.


This Boat

Around Here

When I hear the voices on the radio
they tell me what it is they think that I should know
well my mamma says believe in none of what you hear
and only half of what you see

Here we are were all just one together
though we feel though we feel
alone in our misery
when in truth we never left each other
give yourself give yourself a chance

When I hear the voices on the radio
in such a short time they can make me feel so low
my mamma says believe in none of what you hear
cause only you and you alone can know

that here we are were all just one together
though we feel though we feel alone in our misery
when in truth we never left each other
give yourself give yourself 
give yourself give yourself
forgive yourself forgive yourself

Forgive yourself
Forgive yourself

Here we are were all just one together
though we feel though we feel 
alone in our misery
when in truth we never left each other
give yourself give yourself give yourself
forgive yourself 
forgive yourself
forgive yourself 


Voices on the Radio

I would have told you that I couldn't if I couldn't
but I really didn't know
sometimes you feel super human other times
you just feel like a fool

I watch the hands on the clock on the wall
and it makes me wonder why I am even here at all
If I had waited just a moment maybe then
I wouldn't feel just so small

As all the colors of the day
oh they're slowly fallin slowly fallin away
as all the colors of the day
they're slowly fallin slowly fallin away

Imagine life without your eyes without your tongue
with your heart without your arms 
to hold on to the ones you love
it gets harder from here on it I'm told
it will get harder from here on in I'm sure

Oh as all the colors of the day
they're slowly fallin slowly fallin away
all the colors of colors of the day
oh they're slowly fallin away
