Surrounded 03:13
I feel it in the air there's something I don't know what it is maybe nothing I'm letting all this time wash over me But real life keeps choking me I hear it in the night its coming You want to stay you best start running Before you find they're washing you away You best start now don't waste another day Don't let me fall away Don't let me fall behind I'd give it all away To get it off my mind So sick and tired of not knowing What else is left not showing I feel it all surrounding me Up down above and under me Don't let me fall away Don't let me fall behind I'd give it all away To get it off my mind And if I slip away And if I fall behind Just let me crawl away And get it all off of my mind

Her, again 02:44
I found her crying on my shoulder It's not worth telling but I told her You know I'm feeling so much older And I can feel these winters getting colder And I can't seem to find my way Oh dear looks like I'm back here again Oh dear looks like I'm stuck here again I've been cheated And I first saw it through a summer rain These people come and then they go again In different places it's always the same These people come and then they leave again And I'm not sure if I can watch you leave again No I'm not sure that I can watch me leave again Well I can't seem to find my way Oh dear looks like I'm back here again Oh dear looks like I'm stuck here again Oh dear I'm back here again I've been cheated

The bright light on the inside makes it feel like we're outside in the daylight and the sunshine but it's midnight and still it feels like daytime With the light on in here With the light on in here With the light on in here With the light on in here Your bright eyes reflecting harsh light you squint like you're in direct sunlight but tonight it's alright you're such a pretty sight under these lights With the light on in here With the light on in here With the light on in here With the light on in here

Promise 02:48
Life here by the sea Time it worries me When all tomorrows parties are no more There'll be there'll be no time no more time to mend your heart Your your broken heart will be with you until the end Signs are all around Keep your ear close to the ground When all those days come to an end There'll be there'll be no time to mend your heart Your your broken heart will be with you until the end Your promise on the ground

For once in my life I want to feel your light Come shimmering to me A shiver through the leaves There's a star out this evening The first one of the night And I'm wishing this evening That we will turn out alright For one time in my life I want to feel I'm right In my feelings over you There's just something about you There's a star out this evening And I'm not wishing on leaving Just want to run with these feelings Before they come to an end I'm wishing on the sky The first star in the evening The first star in the night Through the light I see much better Through the light I see your feathers Through the dark I find I'm nowhere Am I nothing without you Through the light I meet your eye Through the light I see you fly There's nothing in the darkness And I'm nothing without you

Who was me 02:50
Stand me up Stand in the rain I'm standing down Can't stand it again Can't be here for you Just have to be someone else who was me Come around Come here again Are you coming out I can't come out today Can't be here for me Just have to be someone else to be with me To be with me To be with me To be with me To be with me Stand me up Sit me down Shout it out Don't come around Can't be here for you Just have to be someone else who was with me Who was me Who was me Who was me Who was me

my locker is empty I've broken the key and some lounge room lizard is taking pop-shots at me and space is a long way a long way to see I know they can't see me my locker is broken and where is the key and some crazy lady keeps laughing at me and space is a great place a great place to be a great place to be me I know they can't see me running away watching the planes fly up in the clear sky I'm not saying goodbye no not tonight and space it seems alright alright to me I know they won't see me depleted energy won't help me along by the time they start looking I'll probably be gone and space is the best place the best place for me the best place to be me I know they can't see me running away my locker is empty I've broken the key and that crazy lady keeps staring at me and space is a great place a great place to be a great place to be me I know they won't see me walking away

Wish only 05:39
Do you wish only to fall? Do you wish only to fail? Do you wish only to moan? Do you wish only to sail away? All the way to the other side Going all of the way to the other side And what will you find on the other side? Going all of the way to the other side Do you wish only to fail? Do you wish only to fall? Do you wish only to bail? Do you wish only crawl away? Do you wish only to lose? Do you wish only to run? Do you wish away these blues? Do you wish always to run away? All the way to the other side Going all of the way to the other side (do you wish only to stay?) And what will you find on the other side? (do you wish only to leave?) Going all of the way to the other side (do you wish only to get away?) All of the way to the other side (do you wish you still believed?) All of the way to the other side (do you wish for something new today?) All of the way to the other side

Well I suppose I'll never know just where you go I'll wander far beneath the stars to find where you are And I guess that's just the way it's gonna be for me Well do you know just how I feel when you're with me? And do you suppose you'll ever feel the same? Well let's wait and see Well I'll survive without you here Here by my side Time will tell if that's the way it's gonna be for you and me Will I know you any better? Well I'm not sure. Why can't you stay a little longer? Will I know you anymore? Well I suppose I'll never know just where you are? I'll find my way through another day and back again And I guess that's just the way it's gonna be for me Will I know you any better? Well I'm not sure Why can't you stay a little longer? Will I know you anymore? Will I know you anymore? I don't know you anymore
