You are afraid
I will know you
really know you cause
You have secrets
I have secrets too
You are afraid of your history
And the mystery cause
You have been there
And I have been there too
So don’t be afraid to be brave
Let’s be the light
And the reasons why
The enemy of your enemy is the enemy of my enemy
It’s plain to see we’re better off together
Let’s be the light
For each other
Each other
You are afraid
I will see you
Really see you cause
You have your past and I have my past to
You of the shadows
Through your windows cause
You have your ghost
And they have ghosted you
Let’s be the light
And the reasons why
The enemy of your enemy is the enemy of my enemy
It’s plain to see we’re better off together
Let’s be the light
For each other
Each other
Let’s be the light
And the reasons why
The enemy of your enemy is the enemy of my enemy
It’s plain to see we’re better off together
Let’s be the light
For each other
Each other.

I see you in me;
And it’s the thing I never thought I would ever see;
And I’m not afraid to say,
That it scares me in every way,
That there even is;
That there even is;
And I see you in me;
I know that you will disagree just to disagree;
And I’m not afraid to say,
That our future is at stake,
If it even exists,
If it even exists,
We Should calculate the risks;
Cause we could be together in the end;
We could be lovers and best friends for a while;
We could be together in the end;
We could be lovers and best friends for a while;
I see you in me;
I won’t apologize for your non-apology;
And I’m not afraid to say,
There’s a reason it got this way,
If there even is,
If there even is;
And I see you in me;
And we’re both jealous of how both jealous we used to be;
And I’m not afraid to say,
We could be on a permanent break,
If it even exists,
If it even exists;
We Should calculate the risks;
Cause we could be together in the end;
We could be lovers and best friends for a while;
We could be together in the end;
We could be lovers and best friends for a while;
Maybe in the end;
Maybe in the end;
Maybe in the end;
Maybe in the end.

Pulverized
You pound my heart in the ground
As you criticize
Now we’re more lost than found
As You turn it around
Now everything’s my fault
And overnight we ground to a halt
When it’s said and done
It’s easier said than done
When defeat has won
You’re still the only one, who I can turn to
Now
Now
Exchanging blows
Snuffing out all hope
And it’s hard to cope
On this slippery slope
When it’s said and done
It’s easier said than done
When defeat has won
You’re still the only one, who I can turn to
When it’s said and done
It’s easier said than done
When defeat has won
You’re still the only one, who I can turn to
Now
Now

All the rose petals that lead to your bed are from a field of infinite beauty
And all the bedtime stories that you were read were filled with infinite meaning
And I believe I can make you happy
And I believe under the night sky dreaming
Riding white horses on the sand by a sea of infinite beauty
The fact our favorite color is dark red is filled with infinite meaning
And I believe I can make you happy
And I believe under the night sky dreaming
Under the night sky dreaming
under the night sky
Through thick and thin
We won’t let the devil get in
Ever again.
And I believe I can make you happy
And I believe under the night sky dreaming
I believe I can make you happy
And I believe under the night sky dreaming

We’ve been going through a phase,
For what seems like every other day.
You can model in LA
Just as long as you move back in my place.
Just bring me back a souvenir
as a reminder that you will come back here
Cause we have both been through a lot
But we’re the one thing that we have got
And so I’ll
Leave the light on the front porch
And I will
Sit and wait here by the door
And yeah carve our name in the oak tree
So I can tell myself that you belong to me.
And we can drink red win in Bryant Park
And just sit around and talk till it gets dark.
We can take the old blue car
And just drive anywhere that feels far.
Cause thinking back through this past year
You are the one thing that I hold dear
And so I’ll
Leave the light on the front porch
And I will
Sit and wait here by the door
We’ve been going through a phase,
For what seems like every other day.

I’m tongue-tied from talking about it
I think you gave me a nervous tick
You turned in your pink slip
I guess you’re gonna call it quits
Well, I don’t have a care in the world
I just wish that you were my girl
I learned a lot from you
Like the ways to avoid the truth
And there’s no denying it you have made me your enabler
There’s no use in running from it, you have made me your enabler
There’s no need to hide from it you have made me your enabler
There’s no more labeling it you have made me your enabler
We took off like a rocket ship,
And I loved every bit of it
It’s kind of dark down in this pit
I miss the nights when we would get lit
Well, I don’t have a care in the world
I just wish that you were my girl
And I’m an heirloom in your attic
I’m right at your fingertips
And there’s no denying it you have made me your enabler
There’s no use in running from it, you have made me your enabler
There’s no need to hide from it you have made me your enabler
There’s no more labeling it you have made me your enabler
You only trust the way you feel
But how do you know that your feelings are real?
And you say that I’m too principled
But that’s just your principle
I don’t have a care in the world
I just wish that you were my girl
I’m cast in your movie
But this role was never right for me
And there’s no denying it you have made me your enabler
There’s no use in running from it, you have made me your enabler
There’s no need to hide from it you have made me your enabler
There’s no more labeling it you have made me your enabler
And I want more
And I want more
And I want more
And I want more

Don’t come around knocking on my door;
Just pretend I don’t live here no more;
Don’t come around and start drawing lines;
Just know that I’ll be on the other side;
And I don’t understand;
How I could fall for this again;
And I still don’t know why;
It’s every single time;
And I don’t understand;
You won’t except me as I am;
And I still don’t know why;
Every time;
You leave me with a big black eye.
Black eye;
With a big black eye;
Eye;
Black eye;
With a big black eye.
And don’t come around and try to climb my fence;
Start a fight and claim it’s self-defense;
Don’t come around and start assigning blame;
Even though you never felt no shame;
And I don’t understand;
How I could fall for this again;
And I still don’t know why;
It’s every single time;
And I don’t understand;
You won’t except me as I am;
And I still don’t know why;
Every time;
You leave me with a big black eye.
Black eye;
With a big black eye;
Eye;
Black eye;
With a big black eye.

So we spoke a lot of words
We said some things you know we never ever did deserve
And as you turned to walk away
You tear me into pieces as you throw it back in my face
Yeah we slammed a lot of doors
Broken promises its hard to feel reassured
But I will never let you go
Because love is more than feeling and I never ever give up hope
And are we arguing with Ghosts
Hearing voices about who hurt who the most
There’s more to life than being right
Got to pull ourselves together cause we’re both gonna lose this fight
Yeah we throw a lot of stones
Broken fragments that will cut down to the bone
We just a space to heal
Cause we’re drowning in emotions without clarity to know who we feel
Are we running from the past
Cause deep down we know what we have will not last
And are we feeling overlooked
Underneath the pressure after all the hell that we hook
As the pain reverberates
A thousand ripples from the choices that we make
Trying hard to react
But we’re strung along forever on the time we can’t get back
Life
Passes by
Without
Answering why
And Life
Passes by
Without
Answering why
We look towards the sky
And all the nights I lay awake
From all the suffering and hurt I just can’t take
Broken pictures on the wall
As I’m crying out to heaven and I’m bracing for the fall
Everyone is choosing sides
Casting bets on who will be the first to compromise
Cause you can win the arguments
cause I’m tired of all the heartache and the energy that I spent
Life
Passes by
Without
Answering why
And Life
Passes by
Without
Answering why
We look towards the Sky
So we start another war
But from the outset I will fall on my sword
Cause I am choosing to forgive
I’ve been a prisoner of anger and it’s just no way to live
With our heads up in the clouds
And now it's time we put our feet back on solid ground
Cause I will not refuse to see
We’ve been chasing after idols that will wreck us eventually
Life
Passes by
Without
Answering why
And Life
Passes by
Without
Answering why
We look towards the Sky

I warned you that I would hurt you; Even though your own my side;
I warned you I would desert you; Cause I was once left behind;
I warned you that I would mistreat you; But you’re the one who closed your eyes; Cause I’ve been hurt a thousand times;
Ah don’t go messin’ with the bottomline;
Ah don’t go thinkin’ you could change my mind; No
I warned you I would abuse you; Even though you did your best;
I warned you that I would misuse you; And take till there was nothing left;
Ah don’t go messin’ with the bottom line;
Ah don’t go thinkin’ you could change my mind; No
We keep falling in love over again; We keep falling in love;
And there’s no one to blame;
And there’s no one to blame; There’s no one to blame;
Ah don’t go messin’ with the bottom line;
Ah don’t go thinkin’ you could change my mind; No

I set out on my own
On a road to nowhere
Trying to find a home
To fit in somewhere
Baby it’s not too late
For us to go and clean the slate
Baby you are worth the wait
It’s all so meaningful
You make everything beautiful
Betrayed by my own heart
Torn wide open
Like ships sailing in the dark
On a restless ocean
Baby it’s not too late
For us to go and clean the slate
Baby you are worth the wait
It’s all so meaningful
You make everything beautiful
Baby it’s not too late
For us to go and clean the slate
Baby you are worth the wait
It’s all so meaningful
You make everything beautiful

And to think it was a year ago
You were still with me
We were living in a dream.
And then suddenly
You disappeared in a tragedy
That pushed me to the brink.
I wish I could get through to you
The feelings that remain.
In hopes you feel the same.
Cause in about another thousand years.
Will we feel regret
Cause it wasn’t over yet.
I’m not letting go.
Letting go.
Till you tell me you tell me you tell me you’ve moved on.
I’m not letting go.
Letting go.
Till you tell me you’ve moved on.
And to think that I found happiness
By lying next to you.
It was all I had to do.
Like finding joy in how you hand would fit
Perfectly in mine
Was more than just a sign
And I can’t bare to think that I won’t get
To look into those eyes
That made me feel alive
And now the more I gain the more I lose
But that’s the price I pay
For pushing you away.
I’m not letting go.
Letting go.
Till you tell me you tell me you tell me you’ve moved on.
I’m not letting go.
Letting go.
Till you tell me you’ve moved on.
There’s about a million memories
I cannot escape
Anymore than fate.
I wish I could somehow block them out.
Like our favorite song
That’s been playing all night long
You part of my identity
Was being your best friend
And I cannot let it end
And so for now you get to keep my heart
No matter who I’m with
Cause it isn’t mine to give.
I’m not letting go.
Letting go.
Till you tell me you tell me you tell me you’ve moved on.
I’m not letting go.
Letting go.
Till you tell me you’ve moved on.

In this cold
Summertime
In this cold
Heart of mine
And our souls
Intertwine
And our souls
Collide
From down at the bottom
Of the ocean
From tops of the mountains
Of emotion
Despite all the distance
That is growing
I will give you my devotion
Give you my devotion
I will give you my devotion
I will give you my devotion
In dissolved
Dreams of mine
In dissolved
Borderlines
From down at the bottom
Of the ocean
From tops of the mountains
Of emotion
Despite all the distance
That is growing
I will give you my devotion
Give you my devotion
I will give you my devotion
Give you my devotion
From down at the bottom
Of the ocean
From tops of the mountains
Of emotion
Despite all the distance
That is growing
I will give you my devotion
Give you my devotion
I will give you my devotion
I will give you my devotion

I don’t know what you’re sayin;
But I know;
I don’t want to go there again;
The signals you’re not sending;
And I know;
I just want to be more than friends;
Cause butterflies are not so bad;
I hate to see them go;
And butterflies are beautiful;
They transform as they grow;
And so;
Let’s take it slow.
I don’t know what you’re hiding;
But I know;
I don’t want to go there again;
The message you’re resending;
And I know;
I just want to dodge bitter ends;
Cause butterflies are not so bad;
I hate to see them go;
And butterflies are beautiful;
They transform as they grow;
And so;
Let’s take it slow.
Cause butterflies are not so bad;
I hate to see them go;
And butterflies are beautiful;
They transform as they grow;
And so;
Let’s take it slow.

Some people just seem too broken.
Like they could never heal.
They are left out in the open
With all the secrets they conceal.
Pushed aside. Pushed aside. Pushed aside. By hard times
Pushed aside. Pushed aside. Pushed aside. While crying out inside for an unrelenting love
We are living in a nightmare.
That is hard to understand
Deep down we know that somewhere
It’s all part of a greater plan.
Pushed aside. Pushed aside. Pushed aside. By hard times
Pushed aside. Pushed aside. Pushed aside. While crying out inside for an unrelenting love
Pushed aside. Pushed aside. Pushed aside. By hard times
Pushed aside. Pushed aside. Pushed aside. While crying out inside for an unrelenting love

These wicked games are just a waste of space and yeah poor taste
This crooked ruse has changed my attitude of you and the truth
In self-defense, we will raise our fists in the air
With eloquence we will make them start to care
And through the barricades that separate
We will burn them all to the ground
And on our better days we’re choosing love over hate
And we will not be shut down
We’ll end the lockdown
This winter chill has got me taking all the pills and yeah cheap thrills
This power grab has taken all we had and can’t get it back
In self-defense, we will raise our fists in the air
With eloquence we will make them start to care
And through the barricades that separate
We will burn them all to the ground
And on our better days we’re choosing love over hate
And we will not be shut down
We’ll end the lockdown

Is it everything you thought it would be;
You swore you’d take over the synthwave scene;
World domination seems out of reach;
You never practice what you preach;
You’re stuck on a carousel;
You’re stuck on a carousel;
Stuck on a carousel;
Nobody’s famous in hell;
So you slept your way to the top;
Cause no one tells you when to stop;
You’re so sedated since you got dropped;
You’re not yourself if you’re not in shock;
You’re stuck on a carousel;
You’re stuck on a carousel;
Stuck on a carousel;
Nobody’s famous in hell;
You’re stuck on a carousel;
You’re stuck on a carousel;
Stuck on a carousel;
Nobody’s famous in hell;
Nobody’s famous in hell;
Nobody’s famous in hell;
Nobody’s famous in hell;
Nobody’s famous in hell;
Nobody’s famous in hell;
Nobody’s famous in hell;
Nobody’s famous in hell;
Nobody’s famous in hell;
Nobody’s famous in hell.

I’m lookin’ in from the outside,
I’m lookin’ in;
Lookin’ from the outside at you again; I’m lookin’ in from the outside,
I’m lookin’ in;
Looking in from the outside
With love;
I swear that I can win you over; With love;
Cause it was never really over.
I’m lookin’ in from the outside,
I’m lookin’ in;
Lookin’ from the outside with thicker skin; I’m lookin’ in from the outside,
I’m lookin’ in;
Looking in from the outside
With love;
I swear that I can win you over; With love;
Cause it was never really over.
I’m lookin’ in from the outside,
I’m lookin’ in;
Lookin’ from the outside at us again; I’m lookin’ in from the outside,
I’m lookin’ in;
Looking in from the outside;
With love;
I swear that I can win you over;
With love;
Cause it was never really over.
Oh hey yeah, it was never really over;
Oh hey yeah, despite that life screwed us over; Oh hey yeah, it was never really over;
Oh hey yeah, despite that life screwed us over.

And when the world it ends.
And it all burns away.
Consumed by the flames.
In a world made of dirt.
Where everyone hurts.
There's only scars and stains.
But when I think of you
It fades away,
And when I think of you,
I can take the pain.
And when I think of you,
And all that you faced,
We are not mistakes.
And the search is meaningless
In these dark empty rooms
Where we try and fill the void.
Waking in the night
From the depths of this gloom
From thoughts I can't avoid.
But when I think of you
it fades away,
And when I think of you,
I can take the pain.
And when I think of you,
and all that you faced,
We are not mistakes.
