Renegade 03:35
Tight rope on the line Take my time Save me from behind Take me alive You came with the call How did you know? This is the right time, when you’re up again If you’re a renegade, better put your back in it They know how you fall I’m oh so cynical They scratch the surface of it Time to let them know This is the right time, when you’re up again If you’re a renegade, better put your back in it Give it to me Take it from me I’m not fighting

Brace 05:20
When is a lie a lie if you know it isn't true? Hell is a cold, dark space not hot, nor sparse A thick, tight brace Stay in your lane Well, you know I love you? You know I love you? Nothing is certain Nothing is owned in the scheme of time I could see for miles when I was who I was before Or was it where I was? If where you are made you, who you are Where will I be? Where am I now? Where will I be? Where am I now? I'm alright if you're alright Can never tell what isn't true I’m not half myself in any case A thick tight brace Stay in your lane. Well, you know I love you? You know I love you? Nothing is certain Nothing is owned in the scheme of time I could see for miles when I was who I was before Or was it where I was? If where you are made you, who you are Where will I be? Where am I now? Where will I be? Where am I now? I just pretend that you were out along the coastline with me in the night

Emily could be the death of me But I know I’ve got to take the time Wrestling with thoughts of apathy I am caught under the thumb If I ever lose my way to you devotion Trying to find a better way to show emotion Still learning how to push away through the motions If I ever lose my way If I ever lose my way Eventually I’ll get back to the means to justify the way my dreams Fall for you with every part of me I forgot to let it be If I ever lose my way to you devotion Trying to find a better way to show emotion Still learning how to push away through the motions If I ever lose my way If I ever lose my way Told myself I would never be someone else in your memory Never let myself have thought Don’t be the one to break my heart

Prey 03:38
Slipping through the cracks and all I wanna know is how to make it ok It's heavy on my chest, I see it when I lie awake and rest my head Walk through the undergrowth See how much it takes control of where you are going I’m losing all the light But flowers growing on my skin are keeping me living It keeps on knocking at my door, and I don't wanna face it It keeps on knocking at my door, and I don't wanna face it I’m prey to my doubts I take it lying down I’m stuck on the same ground I pray for myself Keep holding it down I’m stuck on the same ground The Queen and country vote Whatever will we do? How could we carry on living? The never ending road Choke it out and give as good as anyone's giving It keeps on knocking at my door, and I don't wanna face it It keeps on knocking at my door, and I don't wanna face it I’m prey to my doubts I take it lying down I’m stuck on the same ground I pray for myself Keep holding it down I’m stuck on the same ground Reel me in and spit me out Reel me in and spit me out Maybe I’ll lay it down for ya I’m prey to my doubts I take it lying down I’m prey to my doubts I take it lying It keeps on knocking at my door

Know How 03:41
You seem so sad You don’t get mad I’ve tried and tried to hate it Whatever begins must end The waters cold and I am blue I never knew someone like you You just know how Do you really not see it, not see it, not see it? Open your eyes, your eyes, your eyes Do you really not see it, not see it, not see it love? Up through the clouds, back down my spine All on my head and round my neck Your jelly legs, sweaty back and chest Onto the next? Keep it in check til I wake deeper in the dream I had I’ve got a lot to say about your bed The lower light and the tone of red Am I dead? You just know how Do you really not see it, not see it, not see it? Open your eyes, your eyes, your eyes Do you really not see it, not see it, not see it love?

I walked through my dream as you looked me over Bleached all your hair tried to wash the old out I wanna be who to you is perfect I wanna be who I thought I’d chosen Keep giving up on a love I’m scared of I walked through my dream as the walls move tighter and tighter I’m out Walk Don’t run Take the air Down down Ahh ahh Walk Don’t run Take the air Down down Ahh ahh I thought that I found a faith on Sunday ‘Cause someone said I might die on Monday In the back of my mind you’re right there with me I walked through my dream as the walls move tighter and tighter I’m out Walk Don’t run Take the air Down down Ahh ahh Walk Don’t run Take the air Down down Ahh ahh Everything will fade away, like roses And now, I’m coming round to it

Shame about the weather in mid-July Could wait until you’re ready, but there's only now I know it feels like you couldn’t leave Stuck in a dream where you couldn’t breathe Where I look for you in everything, look for you and everything I need a peace of mind I’m up all night looking for your sign In a visible lie, from a prisoned mind I need peace of mind Could wait until you get it, but it’s over now Time enjoyed wasting, ain’t wasted time I know it feels like you couldn’t leave Stuck in a dream where you couldn’t breathe Where I look for you in everything, look for you and everything I need a peace of mind I’m up all night looking for your sign In a visible lie, from a prisoned mind I need peace of mind

Sun Trap 03:38
If you’re in then I’m in, do you understand? Time will need to stretch like a rubber band Draw and I’ll draw ‘cause I’m getting bored ‘Trouble’ makes trouble with your open chords Make the cut, make it sure Turn off all the lights cause we’re insecure ‘My Neighbor Totoro’ playing on the floor The science to the side, I don't need to recognise How I know I feel How I know I feel Something that is real Something that is real Sun was breaking out of her old suntrap Two girls to the side wrote a twelve-bar rap Chicken on the fryer for the other guys Turn in for the night, put on poltergeist If you’re in then I’m in, do you understand? Green, red, white til the morning light Move on to the skin with a heavy fire The science to the side, I don't need to recognise How I know I feel How I know I feel Something that is real Something that is real Drowned on the evening that I met you A big sky bleeding out down the sides This year, I was losing it I think I found it when i met you on that warm summer’s evening Drowning in the light Drowning in the light The science to the side, I don't need to recognise How I know I feel How I know I feel Something that is real Something that is real

Without You 04:24
Call it by what it is I don’t think I can handle it I feel it slipping out of my grip Down into the abyss Be just who you needed when you were a young kid I really fucking mean it I feel heavier with every miss Darling I’m without you Without you He’s been trying to talk to me In the wind and in the tall trees I know that it was real, if a little bit surreal You don’t get what you deserve You lose what you give and you get what you take Don’t forget about my young boy Dying on the tree trunk I’ll love it when you say my name Beauty’s where you find it I really fucking mean it I feel heavier with every miss Darling I’m without you Without out you Oh now I’m without you Without you So I blame it on his deep last breath Blame it on this fucked up mess Blame it all Aim it all No, don't stop living Don’t stop You’re living

There’s two tickets on the back seat I got them from a friend who said we need to get away I know you’re feeling washed out We’re a long way from the top and I feel we’re here to stay It's hard for me to say how long its gonna be Stuck in between the past and where we want to be I just wanna go now I hope you know the truth That I’m aching for, I'm longing for an afternoon with you Now we’re stuck in a cycle, maybe there's a reason for it Filling up with diesel You’re sleeping in the back with the sunlight on your face I don't know where we are anymore and now my cards declined cause we spent it all on booze I’m struggling to say how we’re gonna make it out I’m standing at the counter with a pocket full of coins I just wanna go now I hope you know the truth I’m aching for, I'm longing for an afternoon with you Now we’re stuck in a cycle, maybe there's a reason for it The evening light is drifting We’re lying on the ground planning from where we’re gonna go You said you wanna run away Lets disappear from view
