Don't Keep Driving

Quiet when I heard your voice
Breaking on a breath, beating in my chest, smash
Putting on a face for show
Now every-time you’re slipping through my fingers
I’m losing all the things that I hold
Shake me even though I’ll break
Leave me in the rain, drown me in the pain, splash
Hoping I don’t let you know
That every-time I’m gripping to the past cause I’m
Too afraid of just letting go
Don’t keep driving
I’ll settle my, settle my, I’ll settle my debt for you
Don’t keep hiding
I’ll tether my, tether my, I’ll tether myself to pursuit
If Rome keeps burning
I’ll take a torch, take a torch, and darling I’ll burn with you
Don’t keep driving and confirm what I already knew
City never felt so cold
Sitting on the stairs, I wasn’t prepared for
The shatter that came with the blow
Now every night I’m watching sparks turn into fires
Shut off eyes, don’t know where you go
Don’t keep driving
I’ll settle my, settle my, I’ll settle my debt for you
Don’t keep hiding
I’ll tether my, tether my, I’ll tether myself to pursuit
If Rome keeps burning
I’ll take a torch, take a torch, and darling I’ll burn with you
Don’t keep driving and confirm what I already
Won’t lie, I wanna lie with you
Don’t move if its not towards me
Door closed as sky went blue
We bend, we break, we chew right through but
Won’t lie, I wanna lie with you
Don’t move if its not towards me
Door closed as sky went blue
We bend, we break, we chew right through but
Don’t keep driving
I’ll settle my, settle my, I’ll settle my debt for you
Don’t keep hiding
I’ll tether my, tether my, I’ll tether myself to pursuit
If Rome keeps burning
I’ll take a torch, take a torch, and darling I’ll burn with you
Don’t keep driving and confirm what I already knew

Saw the spirit I drink on a billboard
The ghost of you in a record store
I danced with both and I cant feel it anymore
When the winds of change become a hurricane
Blow in through your lungs and out again
I’ll hold on to your heart and steel bar frame
Oh my love we are getting older
Yet I can’t seem to lift my head from your shoulder
So we fell into the eye of the storm
And watched our bodies fall from their forms
Cause I’ve been paralysed, paralysed
From time that’s come and gone
Will you walk with me back home
Saw the moon fall through my floor last night
It gave me the fright of my life
And your arms swooped in cradled my bones
Like that old armchair in my childhood home
Oh my love we are getting older
Yet I can’t seem to lift my head from your shoulder
So we fell into the eye of the storm
And watched our bodies fall from their forms
Cause I’ve been paralysed, paralysed
From time that’s come and gone
Will you walk with me back home
Can you stay a little while longer
(Paralysed, paralysed)
Can you stay a little while longer
(Paralysed, paralysed)
Can you stay a little while longer
You make me brave, you make me sane, you make me stronger
You make me brave, you make me sane, you make me stay a little
You make me brave, you make me sane, you make me stronger
You make me, you make me, you make me

The Mend

Stomach churning
Burning moments long ago
Selfish lover
You know not the flames you throw
While rivers rolling
Bodies swept in undertow
Tied up thumbs and silent ghosts on my phone
Enemy line in my bed
I’ll rile you up again
Needle head without it’s thread
All the harm without the mend
Petty word
Become my swollen tongue
Answer query
With a guarded shrug
Build foundations
Never meant to move
Then you’ll make home only inside of you
Enemy line in my bed
I’ll rile you up again
Needle head without it’s thread
All the harm without the mend

Give Me Time

Walk down the hall
Windows reflecting
A strangers face back at me
If I was twenty-three
Maybe I’d be stronger
And I’d be taller than that guy
Give me time
Give me time
I’d jump off this ledge
I’d get off this couch
I’d live in a house ten stories high
I think I lost my way sir
But I’m not about to face her
Spend your whole life waiting for a sign
Give me time
Give me time
Give me time
Give me time
Give me time, give me
Give me time, give me
Give me time, give me love
(x4)
Escaped one mistake
With an inch of your life
To land in a house
With a kid and a wife
Hope you make something of yourself
There kid
Don’t make the same mistakes
Your father did
Give me love
Give me time
Give me love
Give me love
Give me love

On My Mind

Come to the junction
He asked what's my function
Let's not have this debate
I saw the future
we're gonna be late
Remove layer from layer
I think I might stay here
and I'd appreciate if you stayed too
Past brickwork that matches
the stale face reactions
of those that I've met before
Hands in warm pockets
and eyes glued to the floor
While I was retrieving
some light that was leaving
a space between two walls
I saw the future and erased it all
Yeah I erased it
(all)
Yeah I erased it
(all)
Yesterday we we're talking
Felt something inside me move
Said some vulnerability won't kill me
or anybody in this room
Yesterday we we're laughing
like we owned our innocence
Suddenly in front of me
I saw a house, under a tree
behind a white picket fence
Still
you'd throw it all away
Your night
not yet turn to day
To me
your glass was never stained
My eyes
they cut right through the pain
Still we're banking on the down
We're betting on the high
Walk in and out of night
You're on my
You're on my mind
Yesterday we we're talking
Felt something inside me move
Said some vulnerability won't kill me
or anybody in this room
Yesterday we we're laughing
like we owned our innocence
Suddenly in front of me
I saw a house, under a tree
behind a white picket fence
Still
You'd throw it all away
Your night
Not yet turn to day
