It's Alright

In darkness I run
Leaving yesterday and you behind
Waking isn't quite as colorful
As the dream we had, but it's alright
Ooooh...
The clouds aren't dark like before
And the trees don't speak of you anymore
Though I see your shadow through
the light
And I feel it coming, it's alright
Ooooh....

Wander Off

Falling is enough
if I'm falling indefinitely
You seem to hide along a shore
What are you waiting for?
Not for me
I've got time when you're mine
Tell me now
How could I ever wander off
Without you
Waiting for, waiting for
Tell me now
How could I ever wander off
Without you
See it in your eyes
Water seems to rise
Hard to breathe
You tell me I should wander off
Trust me you're enough
All I need
I've got time when you're mine
Tell me now
How could I ever wander off
Without you
Waiting for, waiting for
Tell me now
How could I ever wander off
Without you

Projected on the wall
There's sun in her eyes
But I can’t help feeling ice cold
Ice cold
When he turned to go
He put up a fight
But he fell into a black hole
Still coming back for more
Coming back for more
Don't waste
Your heart will give you away
If it's not broken tell me why
And i will break it if it makes you smile
Wait
Don't tell them your name
A mirror's breaking in your mind
You wake up knowing that you're still a child
Bodies overboard
The room was an island
But I was drifting off shore
His face is upside down
Tried to climb the stairs
But fell back in the crowd
He’s coming back for more
Don't waste
Your heart will give you away
If it's not broken tell me why
And i will break it if it makes you smile
Wait
Don't tell them your name
A mirror's breaking in your mind
You wake up knowing that you're still a child

Half a Heart Beating

Found it in the street, yeah
Half a heart beating
Didn't stop to wonder if it's mine to keep
Put it by my bedside
Fed it pieces of my mind
Really tried my best to keep the beat alive
It's not enough to see your body
But it's enough if I keep you close
So I pick up the pieces you've forgotten
Stitch them to myself and I let them grow
It's not enough to see your body
But it's enough if I keep you close
So I pick up the pieces you've forgotten
'Cause there is nothing left if I let them go
Found it in pieces
My half a heart beating
And I promised I would never let it go
Got away with heart-theft
When I put it in my own chest
Still I always wonder about the other half
It's not enough to see your body
But it's enough if I keep you close
So I pick up the pieces you've forgotten
Stitch them to myself and I let them grow
It's not enough to see your body
But it's enough if I keep you close
So I pick up the pieces you've forgotten
'Cause there is nothing left if I let them go
Stitch them to myself and I let them grow
'Cause there is nothing left if I let them go
