So you think 
You can hold the world up by a string 
With all that you have 
And I will hold every part of you if I could 

And I'm oh... 
And I'm on again 
Brace yourself 
And all that you have 
And oh, I'm in love again 
Brace yourself 
Yeah... 

So you feel everything and everything should be 
All that you wanted 
Stay with me 
I'm in no condition to be 
Alone 

And I'm oh... 
And I'm on again 
Brace yourself 
And all that you have 
And oh, I'm in love again 
Brace yourself 
Yeah... 

On and on 
So it's just your false alarm 
Maybe I'll hold my breathe 
And you'll be gone 
All that you have... yeah... 
All that you wanted... 

Love 
I'm in love again 
Brace yourself with all that you have 
Oh I'm in love again 
Brace yourself... yeah... 
Brace yourself... yeah... 
Brace yourself with all that you have 
Yeah... 

Verse 1: 
It's the perfect time of day 
It's the last day of your life 
Don't let it drift away 
While your heart is still racing 
It's the perfect time of day 

Chorus: 
And you wont feel a thing 
And you wont recall anything at all 

Verse 2: 
Close your eyes and take your last breath 
Press your head aside, the end is the beginning 
Everyone between is so lost, so lost. 

Chorus 

Bridge: 
Let your colors collide 
The time is so right 
I keep running behind 
But I know your meaning 
You love to fall 
(something something) 
The perfect time of day 

Chorus 

Outro: 
Wooooo it's the perfect time of day 
Come on now 
It's the perfect time of day 

The dawn is breaking...
A light shining through...
You're barely waking...
And I'm tangled up in you. (yeah)

I'm open, you're closed.
Where I'll follow you'll go.
I worry I won't see your face
Light up again.

Even the best fall down sometimes.
Even the wrong words seem to rhyme.
Out of the doubt that fills my mind,
I somehow found you and I collide.

I'm quiet, you know,
You make a first impression.
I've found I’m scared to know,
I'm always on your mind.

Even the best fall down sometimes.
Even the stars refuse to shine.
Out of the back you fall in time
Somehow find you and I collide...

Don't stop here...
I lost my place...
I'm close behind...

Even the best fall down sometimes.
Even the wrong words seem to rhyme.
Out of the doubt that fills your mind
You finally find, you and I collide.
You finally find, you and I collide.
You finally find, you and I collide.

All that I wanted to say...
I'll never come here again.
All that I wanted to say...
All gone.
Spring time is always in hand,
Almost as if you were there...
Make it a hole under me again.
Hold on.

'cause I couldn't make up
A thing that you say, love,
There's trouble in here... (hold on)
A thing that I fear.

Take all the love out of me
So I'll never see it again.
Lost where are we?
On a plane... ah... yes...

'cause I couldn't make up
A thing that you say, love,
There's trouble in here... (hold on)
A thing that I feel... yeah...

'cause I couldn't make up
A thing that you say, love,
There's trouble in here.
A thing that I share...
There's trouble in here.
A thing that I feel...

(yeah...)

the snow falls and you can actually hear the snow hitting the ground
I can see... obviously...

It's not that bad 
We could have died 
Chalk it up to being young 
Can you prove it was me? 

No morning drive 
No blurred headlight 
from the corner of my eye 
If only you were here right now, 
you'd tell me... 

Wouldn't it be somethin' if everything changed 
Wouldn't I be somethin' in your way 
Wouldn't it be more than livin' in your wake 
If you and I would ever cease to be 

Yeah... 

Your summer dress 
????
and how they caught us on the stairs 
That silent song you'd sing to me 
keeps singing... 

Wouldn't it be somethin' if everything changed 
Wouldn't I be somethin' in your way 
Wouldn't I be more than livin' in your wake 
if you and I would ever cease to be 

No, my love 
Hold on 

We bend, I break 
You fall, we scrape 
I blame it all on being older now 
I'm still singing... 

Wouldn't it be somethin' if everything changed 
Wouldn't I be somethin' in your way 
Wouldn't I be more than livin' in your wake 
if you and I would ever....yeah 
if you and I would ever cease to be 

Make me fall down 
Make me get up 
And if I'm alright 
Make sure I'm scared to death 
Maybe I'm useless 
Just couldn't remember 
Maybe I'm nervous 
And I'll make you surrender 

I'll take you on 
I'll give it all away 
But you don't 
But you don't 
I'll give it all away 
But you don't feel much better 

Said it yourself 
Said I'm not ready 
And telling myself 
But it's not sinking in 
Maybe I'm new at this 
It is just your reaction? 
Be my illusion and I'll be your distraction 

I'll take you on 
I'll give it all away 
But you don't 
But you don't 
I'll give it all away 
But you don't feel much better 

Would I be hurt?
It wouldn't hurt 
See you again 
You see what I meant 
I told you before 
That I never wanted to feel like this again 

I'll give it all away 
But you don't 
But you don't 
I'll give it all away 

Sweet is the sight 
Of her room 
Window opened by candlelight 
Cold winter on the shore 
Chills the dress she wore 
It's on the floor 
Still it feels so warm tonight 

And that's why I'm wondering why 
You had to tell me 
What's going on in your head 
What's wrong 
Come around to another time when you 
Won't have to run 

And when she says she wants somebody else 
I hope you know that's she doesn't mean you 
And when she breaks down and makes a sound 
You'll never hear her the way that I do 
And when she says she wants someone to love 
I hope you know that she doesn't mean you 
And when she breaks down and lets you down 
I hope you know that she doesn't mean you 

Swing her into flight 
Over her hills at twilight 
I guess that's right now 
While we're here 
Tell me why it's so funny 
That you're so funny 
When you're mad 
You're always so mad 

Cold in the Sun 
My feet on the ground 
A pale windless city 
A numbness for sound 

I'll wait, back here 
or will you notice 
A moment in time 
A photograph lost here 
Since you were mine 
I'll wait back here 
or should I start pushing my way back 
Yeah... 
Should I start pushing my way back 

I walk past your room 
A deep silhouette 
You're tired of racing 
I dont understand 

I'll wait, back here 
Cold and beneath me 
A soaked cigarette 
I'm asleep on a shoulder that I've never met 
I'll wait back here 
Or should I, start pushing my way back 
Yeah... 
Should I start pushing my way 
home 

And I'm with all these women 
And I'm on the edge of my breath 
Ohh... 
And I'm thinking of leaving 
I could just lay down 
Lay down and freeze to death. 
Yeah.....Yeah, Yeah, Yeah 
Ohhh.... 

Cold in the Sun 
My feet on the ground 
A pale windless city 

She was nervous 
She was late 
She left it up to fate 
Standing at a phone oh 
And she knows just what she wants 
And she came here to take it 
How perfect it could be 
You and me 
And she met him 
At the door 
I don't want you anymore 
Remember what you said 
You and a promise... 
You and a promise...

He turned and he didn't wait 
He walked right through the gate 
So glad to be alone 
And he knows who to call 
I'll always be there for you 
Call me anytime 
I don't mean to offend 
A voice on the other end 
Is a stranger to me 
You and a promise... 
You and a promise...

And they say to themselves 
And they say to themselves 
How can I ever let this happen 
You and a promise 

Here, where they can't find us,
I dare them to call me out.
Or tell you
We met here on purpose
I bet they can't wait to wake us up.

It's all a little bit strange...
I know it's a little bit strange.

Make a point and ignore them,
Come on let's wait this out.
They'll find out
We never stop turning,
Sometimes it's tough to change direction.
I know it's a little bit strange...
It's all a little bit strange.

At the end of the day, I...
Gonna say what I mean, I...
Slipping all away...
At the end of our days
We'll escape...
We'll escape...

I know it's a little bit strange,
It's all a little bit strange.

At the end of the day, I...
Gonna say what I mean, I...
At the end of the day, I...
Gonna say what I mean, I...
Slipping all away...
Slipping all away...
Slipping all away now...
At the end of our days,
We'll escape...
We'll escape...

Oh, there's no escape...
We'll escape...
Oh... yeah...

Come lay down at the edge
Come lay down at the broken edge
Come lay down at the feet of angels.
Eyeing you in a northern sky

Come lay down at the end
Come lay down where the time's suspended
Come lay down and hear the voices
Calling you from a northern sky

Follow me and don't look down
You're alright.
Come with me forget you're high
It's alright in all

Your eyes are open and singing.
Your eyes are open
And not quite breathing
Your eyes are open
You're seeing things
That I can't see as hard as I try ...

Follow me and don't look down
You're alright
Come with me forget you're high
It's alright
And alright.

Don't look down.
Keep your eyes off the ground.
So afraid
These days will fall...
Like tears down your face

Follow me and don't look down
You're alright.
Come with me forget you're high
It's alright
And alright

Follow me don't look down
You're alright.
Come with me forget you're high
It's alright
Alright

Every single hour in my hand
And every second word that goes to send
Another day is tied behind my back
Another beating heart is all I have

Not this time around
Not this time around
If you came around
I'd leave the scars today
Not this time around

I never thought I'd live to see this day
I always knew the sun would burn away
I never had the strength to turn away, oh
In the end it's always how I feel

Not this time around
Not this time around
Not this time around
Not this time around
Well if you came around
I'd leave the scars today
Not this time around

How will I
Will you find me?
How will I
Been away
Oh will I
Will you find me?
How will I ever know?

I dont believe in beautiful mistakes
Every turn of fate is on the take
Another turn or second chance goes by
Every wrong turn comes an eye to eye

Not this time around, no
Not this time around
And if you came around
I leave the skies today
Not this time around

Not this time around (this time around)
I leave the skies today
Not this time around (this time around)
Not this time around
Not this time around
Not this time around (I leave the skies today)
No.... yeah...

I wanna turn it round for you, don't turn away
I wanna turn it round for you, don't turn away
I know you and I
Should'a known better
I know you and I
Are turning in
I don't mind
You don't care
If you and I go down
And we come undone
Find us a way out

I wanna turn it round for you, don't turn away
I wanna turn it round for you, don't turn away

Standing in the sun
I should'a gone out there
Standing out but I'm giving in
Well I can't find where I am
Standing on the edge
Of a curtain call
Is it good as done?

I wanna turn it round for you, don't turn away
I wanna turn it round for you, don't turn away

And I'm standing in the sun
I could recall the looks on their faces
I would've turned around for you
For you...

I know you and I could'a done better
I know you and I are turning in
I don't mind if you care
You and I go down
And we come undone
Turn it inside out

I wanna turn it round for you, don't turn away
I wanna turn it round for you, don't turn away
Yeah

Don't don't don't turn away
Don't don't don't turn away
Don't don't don't turn away

He falls asleep against her door
She comes apart sometimes
I think of what a good thing it was before her
And how overrated it seemed

Sometime, I had enough of giving up on you
Not like we were before
Did enough, I couldn't lie to you
But you made it sound like I was
So goodbye
So goodbye

Take a walk down on the street
I try and come back down
I think of what a good thing it was before me
How it just, it disappeared
It seemed like it was in a dream

I've had enough of giving up on you
Not like we were before
Did enough, I couldn't lie to you
But you made it sound like I was
So goodbye
So goodbye

No way out
Like I could tear you apart
Nowhere to run
Well I can tell you it's not for you, for you

He falls asleep against her door
She comes apart sometimes
I think of what a good thing it was before her
And how overrated, overrated it seemed

I've had enough of giving up on you
Not like you were before
Did enough, I couldn't lie to you
But you made it sound like I was
So goodbye
So goodbye

Oh yea
No way out
I could tear you apart
No way out, yeah yeah
