Rolling Out The Fire
I'm picking up papers
And it's looking like we're failing
The sky has started falling
And the blood runs through our hallways
I'm looking at faces
Of people pushing pages
Of promises and fables
And I'm wondering what is stable
I wade through the mire
Of my desperate desire
To guide it from turning
As I witness it burning
I'm looking for glory
At the end of the story
But there's no happy endings
Setting fire to the best things
Setting fire to the best things
Setting fire to the best things
Setting fire to the best things
Setting fire to the best things
All is, all is, all is on the line
Setting fire to the best things
We're rolling, rolling, rolling out the fire
Setting fire to the best things
All is, all is, all is on the line
Setting fire to the best things
Ocean & the Moon
You were meant to be my home
Like a force that can't be known
Like the ocean & the moon
I'm connected to you
All I know, All I know
We will never be the same
We don't need to play those games
Your eyes are greater than the frame
You were meant to be my home
Like a force that can't be known
Like the ocean & the moon
I'm connected to you
When I met you I was thrown
Like a ripple in a pond
And the shockwaves carry on
I'm a lake and you're the stone
Like the ocean & the moon
You've Got It Wrong
Listen close, you’ve got it wrong
Blaming me for things that I’ve not done
You jump the gun and shoot your mouth
So convinced of your lies
You think you’re wise
You’ve got it wrong
You’ve got it wrong, got it wrong
Where do we go from here?
You may regret, the words that passed
You’ve said your piece, that the peace won’t last
You don’t care, if the gasket blows
The mistakes you make, they are yours to own
You’ve got it wrong
You’ve got it wrong, got it wrong
Where do we go from here?
Where do we go from here?
Where do we go from here?
Still Waiting
I held onto the past
I thought this love was built to last
But I'm still waiting, I'm still waiting
I'm still waiting for you
When you left me in that room
After howling at the moon
We were so stupid
Now we're both losing
Now we're both losing
That young love that we once had
Has now been crippled by the cast
Of something heavy
Something so heavy
I'm feeling unsteady
You said you don't want me around anymore
Don't want me around anymore
Don't want me around anymore
You threw a glass it hit the wall
With jagged pieces on the floor
But I'm still walking
I'm still walking, I'm still walking to you
You said I'm full of crap
And that our conversation's flat
But no one's laughing
Now we're not laughing
Now I'm not laughing with you
That young love that we once had
Has now been crippled by the cast
Of something heavy
Something so heavy
I'm feeling unsteady
You said you don't want me around anymore
Don't want me around anymore
Don't want me around anymore
You said you don't want me around anymore
Don't want me around anymore
Don't want me around anymore
I held onto the past
I thought this love was built to last
But I'm still waiting
I'm still waiting, I'm still waiting for you
Simple Freedoms
Not for you or me
To decide what's free
No need for separate seats
No need, no need, no need
For so much pain
We all make our choices
With our various voices
What if it's taken away
(Running, running) Running
(Running, running) Running
(Running, running) Running
(Running, running) Into the sea
(Wash away the pain) To wash away
(From demon days) From demon days
(Running, running) Wide-eyed
(Running, running)
(Running from demon days) Begin again
(Running, running) Running
(Running, running) Running
(Running, running) Running
(Running, running) From demon days
(Running, running) No need
(Running, running) No need
(Running, running) No need
For so much pain
Even now, uneven simple freedoms
Calling to just be people
Beyond a shade
We remain for another day
For another way
A better way
A better way
Hear me say
We remain for love
Hear me say
Camera
I am a camera
Open to the light
I take a negative
And turn it into life
I focus on the truth
That passes into view
I am a camera
All I see is you
I'm alive, when I look at you
I'm alive, I see the things you do
I am camera
Mirror in the room
I am a passenger
Wandering the bloom
I'm looking through the grain
Everything is new
I am a camera
All I see is you
I'm alive, when I look at you
I'm alive, I see the things you do
I am a camera
Open to the light
Endgame
I'm imagining the end
All I know is that it's certain we all face the leveller
I motion to a friend
Part of me must wonder
If there's anything beyond the bend
It's all about to change
It's all about to change
It's all about to change
I'm not ready for the endgame
Or the image in the last frame
Let it be a long time before I cross the end line
What if I don't want to die? Have I lived a good life?
Forever is a long time, I wonder if I'll keep my mind
The essence that is all mine
It's all about to change
I'm not ready for the endgame
Are we ever ready for that big change?
Have I lived as if I'm on stage?
Recurring loops on different days
Will leave an honest legacy?
Do I care about a legacy?
I hope you know I love your ways
It's all about to change (I'm not ready)
It's all about to change (I'm not ready)
It's all about to change (are we ever ready)
I'm not ready for the endgame (I'm not ready)
Or the image in the last frame
Honesty
Right over wrong, no more cheating
Your trust means more, more than control
Power can induce amnesia
Lets not forget about the venom you sold
I know who I am
I need decency
This is what I want
From the world I see
I need honesty
I need honesty
I need honesty
Give me honesty
The hate you sew, so full of ego
Lets not forget about the people you owe
Tomorrow can begin to heal
Not something fake
It needs to be real
I know who I am
I need decency
This is what I want
From the world I see
I need honesty (I need, I need, I need, I need)
I need honesty (I need, I need, I need, I need)
I need honesty (I need, I need, I need, I need)
Give me honesty (I need, I need, I need, I need)
I need honesty
Vipers
Dusting off my armour
And I'm taking back the power
Given you my life-force
And you're taking all my hours
Everyday's a battle
I'm repeatedly despairing
I do the best I can but
Thinking what's the point in caring
You keep on trying to break me
But look I stand here glaring
Daring me to flinch but
I keep my eyes wide open staring
Dusting off my armour
And I'm taking back the power
Given you my life-force
And you're taking all my hours
Want to be a king but
You're controlling all my kingdoms
Vipers at my door and
It's hard to keep away the minions
Witness my defences
As I flex my mental prowess
Climb aboard your death star
As my rebels find your weakness
Escapism
Sometimes when I am feeling low
Think about waves & the undertow
Dragging my feet through a golden coast
And I jump in the ocean
Clear blue water
Imagine the sun dancing through the trees
Escapism come take a hold of me
And set me free
Set me free
Lost in my own thoughts, perfect view
Climbing the peaks and I never knew
I could be free like I see in you
And I long for the mountains & waterfalls
Imagine the sun dancing through the trees
Escapism come take a hold of me
And set me free
Set me free
Set me free
Set me free
Stare at the walls
And I'm feeling kinda small here
Wanna fill my lungs with fresh air
Wanna close my eyes be anywhere
And I wish I could be anywhere
But here
It's alright, It's OK
Sometimes when I am feeling low
Think about waves & the undertow
Dragging my feet through a golden coast
And I jump in the ocean
Clear blue water
Imagine the sun dancing through the trees
Escapism come take a hold of me
And set me free
Set me free
Set me free
Set me free
