You Wanted to Wait 03:30
lyrics
It's been a few days, no chance to talk about that I've been tired of this, and I know you're waiting to shout I almost moved out, it didn't feel like home – like everyplace I've been to I head up for the town, I knew I had to come – sing the crowd, sing the crowd Put this tank top back You were ready to crack I should have said something before it faded away We end up living there, I know what you're gonna say I have a disease and you were hiding behind You should have taken some pills and a hike in my mind I've been alone, since I can remember Outside you're gone, didn't you wait for the Sun ? I've been alone, way before you ran When I was done, didn't find your answer I've been alone, since it all began Outside you're gone, you didn't wait for the Sun I've been alone, way before you ran By the time I was done, you've had your fun, I was alone I've been alone, since it all began By the time I was done, you've had your fun I've been alone, since I can remember Outside you're gone, didn't you wait for the Sun ? I've been alone, way before you ran When I was done, didn't find your answer You wanted to wait, you wanted to wait, you wanted to wait for the Sun You wanted to wait, you wanted to wait, but didn't you wait for the Sun Didn't you wait, didn't you wait, didn't you wait for the Sun I've been alone, since I can remember Outside you're gone, didn't you wait for the Sun ? I've been alone, way before you ran By the time I was done, you've had your fun

By Surprise 03:22
lyrics
Why did you leave today ? Tell me something, no way I guess we both knew Please bring me back, try something new A lie that once was told You stuck by, you didn't mind the cold A truth that twice was heard It's always on the ice that you learned What should I know ? By surprise, I won't let you lie Oh, my, you should be mine We would never know the end Sometimes it's best not to attend I'm leaving too, there's no point to stay Sometimes you don't have to display By surprise, I won't let you lie Oh my, you should be mine By surprise, I won't let you lie Oh my, you will be mine By surprise, I won't let you die Oh my, you're already mine By surprise, I won't let you die Oh my, you're already mine By surprise, I won't let you die Oh my, you're already mine By surprise, I won't let you die Oh my, you're already mine

In Front of Me 02:56
lyrics
You were hiding in front of me And though I wasn't scary There was some rain falling around us No one's around when you were crying I sure as well began to ride On your way you forgot to stay alive I lied For a long long time A leap of faith and you're right here A bunch of crap and you disappear You were hiding in front of me And though it wasn't scary There was some rain falling around us No one's around when you were crying I sure as well began to ride On your way you forgot to stay alive I lied, for a very long time Just a last drop, there's a way to stop I sure as well began to ride On your way you forgot to stay alive I lied and ride I lied and ride I lied and ran Ran and ran and ran...

Rust 02:54
lyrics
You didn't ask, but you wanted to Was this for real ? So out of the blue You should call them, I swear to hold your hand This time it really wasn't the same I've made up my mind through this long long night What should I know since you didn't tell me more ? What should I trust when you say you're just going to rust ? You will wake up, you will wake up and before us You didn't wet my shirt when I hugged you At least there was something I could do Don't you cry, you're gonna fight and you'll be fine They say it's tough, but you could defeat the odds, one more time What should I know since you didn't tell me more ? What should I trust when you say you're just going to rust ? Heal me now, heal me now Free me now, free me how ? Never too late, believe me please I know how to rest, follow me in

By Your Eyes 03:05
lyrics
It was the night before you left I'm sure it was for the best Look at your eyes, they don't know how to cry I changed my mind, opened them wide, kept lookin for a sign How long were you gone ? How come you were so long ? Early morning and still no clue I should be worried, turns out it's not you When you'll be back, we'll need to sit and to chat Around the block, outside the fog, into our flat You won't start and I won't crack God bless but I'm starting to pack It's not our first time, but it will be the last Grabbing my keys, breathing it out, taking off fast How long were you gone ? How come you were so long ? How long were you gone ? How come you were so long ? How long were you gone ? How come you were so long ? All around, there was the sign, looking down and through the light And the sky, all night, had brightened by your eyes How long were you gone ? How come you were so long ?

Too Late 02:50
lyrics
Looking outside, don't know where you hide In the bathroom, I'm sure you're in our tub The house is so calm, you must not be home And you left your dreams behind coz now it's too late And you left me right away coz now it's fate They say I'm a mess, you know I only believe what I see My eyes have been closed for what seems like a million years I don't know where to go, I'm lost, I'm done, I'm counting the cards I should get out, just to breath and see His light Never got why, you tried so hard to escape from your life You needed to cry, but you couldn't say goodbye And you left your dreams behind coz now it's too late And you left me right away coz now it's fate You left your dreams behind You left me right away You left your dreams behind You left me just today And you left your dreams behind coz now it's too late And you left me right away coz now it's fate Too late, no way, I can't hear the words you say Open the gates, get away, you can hear me when I say And you left your dreams behind coz now it's too late And you left me right away coz now it's fate Too late, no way, I can't hear the words I say Open the gates, get away, you can hear me when

Before Dawn 03:05
lyrics
Been around, been around here I close my eyes to see who's near Everyday, each night, I'm wondering about Been here, done that, won't you help me out ? There's nothing here by my side Be careful if you try There's nothing here by my side Be careful if you try Have you slept before dawn ? Did you clean before cryin ? Have you lost your crown ? You remember the last time, how we were so much alike A lot did change around this bay So far, you wouldn't get your way I missed my turn, I should have give it a thought And now it's too late, is it too late or not ? - Is it too late or not ? Have you slept before dawn ? Did you clean before cryin ? Have you lost your crown ? You didn't forget last time How dare you lose your mind ? Why wouldn't you sleep at night ? How dare you lose your mind ? Why wouldn't you be alright ? How could you lose it now ? I mean, we fought and we lied How can you lose it now ? So close from the other side Have you slept before dawn ? Did you clean before cryin ? Have you lost your crown ? You remember the last time, how we were so much alike Have you slept before dawn ? Did you clean before cryin ? Have you lost your crown ? You did forget last time

Drive 03:58
lyrics
Alone in my room, I've been waiting For I don't know how long, I threw my watch away Hang a sign on the door, don't knock unless you'll stay At least try to smile I know we're not alike, but I need you to tell me why I need it to carry on, that's the end of the line So close, but you wouldn't let me drive And now, you don't know why I'm not fine, looking up to the sky The Sun is playing with me All around us there's the sand, and there always will be Does it have to be you ? Anyone can scream So close, but you wouldn't let me drive And now, you don't know why I'm not fine, looking up to the sky Tied up and tired Lookin calm, feeling weird It's time, and I know, I know So close, but you wouldn't let me drive And now, you don't know why I'm not fine, save your words for tonight So close, but I wouldn't let you go And now, you don't seem to know who's right, I've been here myself once

Into Our Sea 03:55
lyrics
You were leaving that day All the reasons, all the things that you said Couldn't believe a single one of them Wait a second, maybe you shouldn't get on that plane It's not at all how I thought it would end Thinking it through, sitting on the sand Running and running So much to hide Drowning and drowning I'm not that wise Calling and calling No more faith in my eyes It was pouring down with rain Everything, everyone was crying your name Your wrist once told me But out of nowhere, you threw yourself in our sea Running and running So much to hide Drowning and drowning Such a big surprise Calling and calling No more faith in my eyes Running and running So much to cry Drowning and drowning Such a big surprise No more light in my eyes

All Night 02:57
lyrics
There's no light It's still sleeping around I leave behind the secrets of this night It's still dark, they're still sleeping inside Why am I awake ? It's been a while now I need a place to rest and to hide Sacrifice Would you please throw the dice ? The coffee's good and it helps me to stay alive I've been here myself just once, and right now it's just dark This is all you had They got me out They turned you in Sacrifice Would you care to throw the dice ? It was a long night, it's all over now, no more messing around The Sun reflects itself in the ocean of your eyes Don't you mock me, I am here right now They got me out And they turned you inside Sacrifice You need to hide, I can't stand to be alright All night, I've been drinking it all behind This is the last time you leave, for Christ Sacrifice You need to glide, I can't stand to stay without All night, I've been screaming it out of my mind

Alive 03:13
lyrics
I look up to the sky I leave my thoughts behind I remember the last time We should leave, we should ride My head begins its fight I swear I'm gonna leave it behind I'm done listening to you A few more miles and you'll be hi I miss your eyes, I miss your thighs How about dinner tonight ? We were more than just some fight Have you ever felt this alive ? Let's try one more time You're running by my side I left my thoughts behind High speed, down the line We should leave, we must ride Have you ever been alright ? Have you ever felt alive ? Have you ever kicked into overdrive Have you ever slept at night ? Have you ever felt alive ? Have you ever felt alive ? Have you ever been alright ? Have you ever kicked into overdrive Have you ever slept at night ? Have you ever been alright ? Have you ever kicked into overdrive Have you ever felt alive ? I left my thoughts behind We should leave, we should ride I left it all behind We must leave, we must ride

It's coming from the early nineties. It's getting out of the sea, it's loud and very much alive.
