It's a good day for me I won't be getting sleep Gone my old way again My memory's yours to keep Tonight, I'm gone But I'll still think about you everyday I'm in harm's way Tonight, I'm done But I'll keep dreaming about you 'till I get no more sleep Happy birthday to me You're still a million miles away Are we still friends today I don't know what to say Today's the day I'm gonna make them go away I'm in harm's way Today, I win I'm gonna keep on going 'till I get no more sleep Today's the day I'm gonna make them go away I'm in harm's way Today, I win I'm gonna keep on going 'till I get no more sleep Get no more sleep Get no more sleep

Don't ever call on me to help you 'cause I can't be trusted with anything else Don't ever call on anyone else, you can trust me I don't know what I am saying I don't know what I am saying Don't ever call on me to help you 'cause I can't be trusted with anyone else Don't ever call on anyone else, you can trust me I don't know what I am saying I don't know what I am saying Don't ever trust me with anything I won't remember Don't ever trust me with anything Boy, you gotta fix it now Don't call on me Don't ever call on me to help you 'cause I can't be trusted with anything else Don't ever call on anyone else, you can trust me I don't know what I am saying I don't know what I am saying Don't ever call on me to help you 'cause I can't be trusted with anyone else Don't ever call on anyone else, you can trust me I don't know what I am saying I don't know what I am saying Don't ever call on me to help you 'cause I can't be trusted with anything else Don't ever call on anyone else, you can trust me I don't know what I am saying I don't know what I am saying Don't call on me

I'd like to leave this town And build my own place Away from the city Then we could live freely You, you made me realize What we do is just fine Then you try to tell me Taste the cherries and the wine This old place Is not fit for living now First time I've seen your face Breathe you in right now You, you made me realize What we do is just fine Then you try to say When you're carefree and have nothing left This little town Is so far away from you Wanna hear a story? I'm sure that you would You, you made me realize What we do is just fine Then you try to tell Me that when you're lost and lonely now When you have no one left Call and I'll be right there When you have nobody Yell and I'll be right there Girl, you can talk to me When they all leave you here Please just know that I'm there for you This little town Is so far away from you Wanna hear a story? I'm sure that you would You, you made me realize What we do is just fine Then you try to tell Me that when you're lost and lonely now When you have no one left Call and I'll be right there When you have nobody Yell and I'll be right there Girl, you can talk to me When they all leave you here Please just know I'm there for you There for you When you have no one left Call and I'll be right there When you have nobody Yell and I'll be right there Girl, you can talk to me When they all leave you here Please just know that I'm there for you, girl

Never felt so far away It's time to leave this town But if I will return You won't see anything It's been a nice time But it's time for me to leave I'm packing all my bags And then I'll be on my way, honey Monday morning, out the door Tuesday morning, out to shore Wednesday morning, there'll be no more of me Every time I wake up now I feel something so real The room is spinning round It's spinning out of control I can't sleep anymore 'Cause it's been too long and been too late for me I'm walking out the door And then I'll be on my way, honey Monday morning, making tea Tuesday morning, out to sea Wednesday morning, you won't see me again We used to skip along all the rain Why'd you need a reason for the things you say? I'm not sure if I can ease the pain We all know what's coming so why do we still live in fear? Monday morning, out the door Tuesday morning, out to shore Wednesday morning, there'll be no more of me Monday morning, leaving home Tuesday morning, on my own Wednesday morning, you should've known by now

The Coast 02:25
Close my eyes Every night All the time, every night Everywhere I go Well, I never want to leave this place, I never wanna go back Don’t leave now Everyone needs someone to follow Everywhere I go Well, I never want to leave this place, I never wanna go back I wanna Tell you something I’ve always liked you from the start To be honest, I can't tell you What I think you should know Don't go Make a wish Every night All the time, every night Everywhere I go Well, I never want to leave this place, I never wanna go back Tell me a story Where do you come from? Tell me a story Don't leave me hanging Tell me a story Where do you come from? Tell me a story Don't leave me hanging

Every night when I dream about you I feel things I can't explain If I could, I'd have left too soon I don't think it's worth living with the pain I think I've been here too long But I thought I'd let you know Where are we gonna go? I used to be able to speak But now I can only Talk with a whisper I'm so sorry but I'm getting impatient Day and night, I feel this sensation Every night, counting every minute But why am I here if I'm not playing to win it? I think I've been here too long But I thought I'd let you know Where are we gonna go? I used to be able to speak But now I can only Talk with a whisper I think I've been here too long But I thought I'd let you know Where are we gonna go? I used to be able to speak But now I can only Talk with a whisper

Blade 02:13
When they come and try to take your pride They don’t understand what you can do They can try to change my universe Everything is fine when I’m with you If you want me to, I’ll go away The higher I go, the more I realize We’ll meet each other Again You’ll warm up to me When they come and try to take your soul They don’t understand what you can do They can try to change your universe Everything is fine when I’m with you If you want me to, I’ll go away The higher I go, the more I realize We’ll meet each other Again You’ll warm up to me

We were alone together, lying underneath the willow tree You told me you'd be leaving soon, but there were things you wanted to see So you took me to the cavern where we used to play as kids Writing on the walls, just sloppy scrawls, it was where we first hid You said "Never forget my name 'cause I'll be back" The streets are empty and deserted, now there's nothing to do or see Stuck on the wrong side of the moon, but it don't matter much to me When you were here, the town was booming, now it's all lonely and drab I have my calendar, I'm marking the days until you'll be back Heart to heart in the jungle We've come to meet our fate Eye to eye, side to side The hour's getting late I've been waiting decades now just to see the sun rise again I thought I might never make it out and then, here you came We were young, spending our days living insane Now we look back at everything we've done in vain And your soul keeps singing the blues But it's all over, there's nothing to lose Anymore

Candle Boy 03:21
All night Every night I think about the things we did I remember when we used to live on the edge But now it's different 'cause we're older and the candles Blow out in the Clocks above They never ticked so fast enough Days are gone They never went so fast enough Candle boy My tragedy Never found the time With the possibilities Seems like All the years we knew each other now are gone I can't make out anything that's happened then Our bodies grow old but our minds are very young Gazing at the Clocks above They never ticked so fast enough Days are gone They never went so fast enough Candle boy My tragedy Never found the time With the possibilities
