Bubble Up
04:12
|

|
I don’t want to be scared no more
I’ve got to let it go
At certain times I’m certain my mind has
run away from home
Brain freeze
The fear multiplies and I let it take over me
Forget to breathe
Roll the windows down take over the steering wheel
These thoughts just keep on bubbling back up
I try to hit stop but they speed on up
Think I’m losing control, losing control
And if anybody asks where I am: I’m smoking
Not sitting in the bathroom hoping
this goes, this goes
I wish I would wake up right now
And see it was just a dream
Oh a nightmare I swear I wouldn’t wish it even
On my own worst enemy
Brain freeze
The fear multiplies and I let it take over me
These thoughts just keep on bubbling back up
I try to hit stop but they speed on up
Think I’m losing control, losing control
And if anybody asks where I am: I’m smoking
Not sitting in the bathroom hoping
this goes, this goes
What a waste of energy, what a weight to carry
What a waste of energy, what a weight to carry
These thoughts just keep on bubbling back up
I try to hit stop but they speed on up
Think I’m losing control, losing control
And if anybody asks: I’m smoking
Not sitting in the bathroom hoping
this goes, this goes

Push Pull

Oh alarm bells ring
When I hear you say
I don’t deserve to play this game
You plant a seed of self doubt
(And) let it flourish in my brain
I feel I wasted all the days,
wasted all the days I spent with you
I feel I wasted all the days,
wasted all the days with you
How come you always think you know best? - so blessed
Thank you for your interest, I guess
Funny how you think you
Know me more than I do
I don’t need your push, push & pull
So where do we go from here
now you know I’m not looking for permission oh
Run with your tail between your legs
I'm so done entertaining your opinions
I feel I wasted all the days,
wasted all the days I spent with you
I feel I wasted all the days,
wasted all the days with you
How come you always think you know best? - so blessed
Thank you for your interest, I guess
Funny how you think you
Know me more than I do
I don’t need your push, push & pull
You plant a seed of self doubt
Let it flourish in my brain
You plant a seed of self doubt
Wasted all those days with you
Ohhh Ohhh
Funny how you think you
Know me more than I do
I don’t need your push, push & pull

The Pressure
03:16
|
|||
|
Blood in my rosy cheeks
Feeling the rising heat
110 degrees
I just shouldn’t speak
Finding the line between
Smalltalk and DMCs
Never fared well for me
I just shouldn’t speak
I feel the pressure
I fail at first impressions
Don’t mind me
Oh I’m just waiting here
For the earth to make me disappear
Dying to blend in, be part of the scenery
Don’t want you seeing me
I am not the type to
Swallow my pride and let loose
But I wanna have good time with you
Like nobody’s watching
I feel the pressure
I fail at first impressions
And now the blood drains out of my head
I think I died just a little
Let me just recut this scene
Delete it from your memory
I feel the pressure
I fail at first impressions

I'm always on, been far too long
Live wires in my lungs
By the time I'm done, the day is gone
Mindlessly floating 'round the sun
Wish away my whole life
For two weeks in the countryside
And I wonder why
Why do we do this 'til we die? Oh
I wanna go down where the wind blows
Let's just get high and then we'll take it slow
I wanna go down where the wind blows
Let's just get high and then we'll take it slow
Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh
Let's just get high and then we'll take it slow
I wanna go down where the wind blows
Still awake in thе witching hour
Burning the candle at both ends
Thеse old walls, if they could talk
They'd tell me, "Go to bed, my friend"
And I don't know why
I feel so reckless all the time
Chasing dreams, always on standby
I feel I'm living half a life, oh
I wanna go down where the wind blows
Let's just get high and then we'll take it slow
I wanna go down where the wind blows
Let's just get high and then we'll take it slow
Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh
Let's just get high and then we'll take it slow
I wanna go down where the wind blows
I wanna go down where the wind blows
I wanna go down where the wind blows
I wanna go down where the wind blows
Let's just get high and then we'll take it slow

Feel It
02:36

Leaving grown men
Shaking in their boots when they come for you
Rewrite the rules
What they believe to be true
They didn't know what to do, you got inside of their heads
But me and my friends heard every word that you said
Now I'm lost on you
I'm lost in your smile
I feel brand new
I feel for you
I'm lost on you
I'm lost in your style
I feel brand new
I feel for you
I feel it
I feel it
I feel it
So reverse the roles
They try to put you in your place, say sit still, but you never listen
You won‘t be told what to do
You got inside of their hеads, broke every rulе that they set
No excuses for saying it like it is
Now I'm lost on you
I'm lost in your smile
I feel brand new
I feel for you
I'm lost on you
I'm lost in your style
I feel brand new
I feel for you
I feel it
I feel it
I feel it
I feel it
Now I'm lost on you
I'm lost in your smile
I feel brand new
I feel for you
I'm lost on you
I'm lost in your style
I feel brand new
I feel for you hey
I feel it
I feel it
I feel it

Disease

Loneliness is a disease and if you have it please
Don't talk to me
They can see it in your eyes
They can see it for miles
Loneliness is a disease
What you doing tonight?
Maybe I could come by
No? Okay
Cause loneliness is a disease and if you have it please
Don't talk to me
I wish it was a movie
Or I wish it was a song
Cause then I wouldn't have too long
To get to the point
And then to the end
Then to the end
Lonelinеss is a disease and if you have it plеase
Don't touch me
I can see for miles
I can see it in your eyes
Loneliness is a disease
And I wish it was a movie
Or I wish it was a song
Cause then I wouldn't have too long
To get to the point
And then to the end my friend
And then to the end my friend
And then to the end
I'll wait at the end my friend
I'll wait at the end

Married with Bruises
03:38

|
Two thousand years married with bruises
Two thousand years married with bruises
You think that you could make me better
You want me, you want me to be like
An average 1950s housewife
The cherry on the top of your life, your life
You need me, you need me to be sweet
Sweepin' up the shit under your feet
On call and always there in a heartbeat
(Ooh-ooh-ooh)
Can't you feel me walking away?
Can't you feel me walking away?
I'ma tell you for the last time
Don't love me like that
Don't love me like that, oh
Don't love me in the way that you do
Two thousand years married with bruises
Two thousand years married with bruises
You think that you could make me better
Year on it, year on out, we've heard it
My mother's mother had to follow your orders
She said she didn't want the same for her daughters
Go tell me, go tell me you're sorry
Two thousand years and yeah you might be forgiven
Consider this a little lesson in living
(Ooh-ooh-ooh)
Can't you see me walking away?
Can't you see me walking away?
And I'ma tell you for the last time
Don't love me like that
Don't love me like that, oh
Don't love me in the way that you do
Don't love me like that
Don't love me like that, oh
Don't love me in the way that you-
Two thousand years married with bruises
Two thousand years married with bruises
Two thousand years married with bruises
Two thousand years married with bruises (Bruises, no-oh, oh, oh)
Don't love me like that
Don't love me like that, oh
Don't love me in the way that you do, no-oh, no

Talk About It
03:50
|

Another lonely night still surrounded by
All the jagged sides I try to hide
And all the little lies, like, "Yeah, I'm doing fine"
And all the silence I used to get by
I don't wanna talk about it
I'd only break
And you don't wanna think about it
So you wake and bake
Oh, let's just take a trip, babe
Anywhere but here
All our lives, you and I, we'll be tethered
Yeah, you know what I know without saying so
Tried so hard to put the parts back together
Yeah, you know what I know without saying so
But I don't wanna talk about it
I don't wanna talk about it
I don't wanna talk about it
Early in the morning hour
Can't feel the wеight
Somewhere in thе clouds I'm dreaming
Until the day
Pulls me back to Earth, now, oh, I wanna
Be anywhere but here
All our lives, you and I, we'll be tethered
Yeah, you know what I know without saying so
Tried so hard to put the parts back together
Yeah, you know what I know without saying so
But I don't wanna talk about it
No, I don't wanna talk about it
I don't wanna talk about it
Oh, no
Another lonely night still surrounded by
All the jagged sides I try to hide
And all the little lies, like, "Yeah, I'm doing fine"
And all the silence I used to get by
Another lonely night still surrounded by
All the jagged sides I try to hide
And all the little lies, like, "Yeah, I'm doing fine"
And all the silence I used to get by
I don't wanna talk about it
I don't wanna talk about it
No, I don't wanna talk about it
Oh, no
Don't wanna talk about it
Don't wanna talk about it
Don't wanna talk about it

Misery
03:04
|

|
Sleepless
Sleepless nights spent thinking 'bout you
Where you came from
What you do
How come you're here?
Now every time I'm alone well I've started
Thinking about the way that we parted
Don't blame me now
For building all your misery
You have yourself
Don't blame me now
For building all your misery
You have yourself
Oh, yourself to blame
Speechless
Speechless when I'm talking to you
Your self-absorption rate's
Way off the Richter scale
You can't even ask: „How arе you?“
Now every time I'm alonе well I've started
Thinking about the way that we parted
Don't blame me now
For building all your misery
You have yourself
Don't blame me now
For building all your misery
You have yourself
Oh, yourself to blame
Now every time I'm alone, well I've started
Thinking about the way that we parted
Now every time I'm alone, well I've started, oh
Don't blame me now
For building all your misery
You have yourself
Don't blame me now
For building all your misery
You have yourself
Don't blame me now
For building all your misery
You have yourself
Don't blame me now
For building all your misery
You have yourself
Oh, yourself to blame

One Two Three

Pretty little things all lined up on the window
When did my reflection make me so insecure
You got me looking at myself in a new light
Hating what I see in the side by sides
no matter what I do, can’t get it right
I count the flaws I count them one, two, three, one, two, three
Caught in the layers of a big machine, changing me
And if I apologize I will be lost inside you
I count the flaws I count them one, two, three, one, two, three
Cannot hold a smile longer than three, two, one
And everyone I know seems sad, until the camera’s on
When did we all start to fantasize, oh about being recognized
Feel the weight of it all the time
I count the flaws I count them one, two, three, one, two, three
Caught in the layers of a big machine, changing me
And if I apologize I will be lost inside you
I count the flaws I count them one, two, three, one, two, three
Put her in a pink bow so that everybody knows
She’s Daddy’s little princess, and she’ll stay forever so
She’ll constantly compare herself to other girls
Nobody can see what it does to her
Nobody can feel it but that shit hurts
It hurts
I count the flaws I count them one, two, three, one, two, three
Caught in the layers of a big machine, changing me
And if I apologize I will be lost inside you
I count the flaws I count them one, two, three, one, two, three

Best of Me
03:11
|
|||
|
I don’t wanna go there tonight
I don't see the point in faking it
You know that I’m right
Seems In every other conversation I can see your eyes re-scan the room
Looking for someone who’s worthy of talking to you
You never got to see the best of me
Never saw the best of me
I guess I missed the point when everybody got bruised
seems that if you wanna succeed you gotta ooh be a bit cruel
Gold and silver for bad behaviour, pick a new flavour of the month
What a way to make a generation the loneliest one
You never got to see the best of me
Never saw the best of me

A Little Bit Funny
03:53

Today was a sad day, I read your name on an old postcard
It said, „Kisses from far away“
When I last saw you
You said, „Let's do this again“
But that's like a lifetime ago
No, I never did reply
You know how life runs on by
But I watch from a distance
Do you, too, from time to time?
And I know it's not real, I
Still think it's nice to see
Pieces of your life
Say hi to the family
It's a little bit funny
They were playing your song today
It's a little bit funny
They were playing your song today
Growing up on the same street
Sharing our youth and our dreams
Oh, we had big plans
Of seeing the world and leaving Dublin
And we got what we wanted
Just not like how we imagined
'Cause you'rе half a world away
Oh, and I'm, I'm in Berlin, oh
It's a little bit funny
They wеre playing your song today
It's a little bit funny
They were playing your song today
It's a little bit funny
It's a little bit funny
They were playing your song today

You got a chip on your shoulder
'Cause Dublin could not love you
You got a mouth that matches the accent
Beat up, broke down, so fractured
And I know 'cause I've been there, too
You say there's no way I could know what you're going through
But I know, 'cause I've been there
Yeah, I know, yeah, I know
The Romans didn't build it all in one day
One day you will wake up and be okay
If I could take it all away, you know what I'd say
One day you will wake up and be okay, you'll be okay
You'll be okay
You want a life like the movies
Thought you'd achieve all of your dreams in your twenties
But had to lеarn the leads are only for thе actors
Your beat up, broke down, so fractured
And I know 'cause I've been there, too
You say there's no way I could know what you're going through
But I know, 'cause I've been there
Yeah, I know, yeah, I know
The Romans didn't build it all in one day
One day you will wake up and be okay
If I could take it all away, you know what I'd say
One day you will wake up and be okay, you'll be okay
Nothing's ever as it seems
In the big TV
It just looks easy
Maybe they're just as sad as you and me
No, it's never as it seems (No, it's never as it seems)
In the big TVs (In the big TVs)
It just looks easy, yeah
The Romans didn't build it all in one day (One day, one day)
One day you will wake up and be okay (One day, one day)
If I could take it all away, you know what I'd say (If I could take it all away, you know what I'd say)
One day you will wake up and be okay (You'll be okay)
One day you'll be okay
You'll be okay
You'll be okay
One day you will wake up and be okay
