don't go on
looking for the love
in the illusion of it all
the answers in the dream
cause I have been through mire and confusion
I am free
as far as I can see

is Nashville skyline
underneath it all
you yourself are free

14 hours ago
I was living in a dream
I was living for the scene
I was floating high above
cause I have been through mire and confusion
I am free

floating high above
and underneath it all
yourself are free
you yourself are
forevermore is the love that you need to believe
and you yourself are there
floating high above
the Nashville skyline

I never knew
I never knew that everything was falling through
That everyone I knew was waiting on a queue
To turn and run when all I needed was the truth
But that's how it's got to be
It's coming down to nothing more than apathy
I'd rather run the other way than stay and see
The smoke and who's still standing when it clears

Everyone knows I'm in
Over my head
Over my head
With eight seconds left in overtime
She's on your mind
She's on your mind

Let's rearrange
I wish you were a stranger I could disengage
Just say that we agree and then never change
Soften a bit until we all just get along
But that's disregard
Find another friend and you discard
As you lose the argument in a cable car
Hanging above as the canyon comes between

Everyone knows I'm in
Over my head
Over my head
With eight seconds left in overtime
She's on your mind
She's on your mind

Everyone knows I'm in
Over my head
Over my head
With eight seconds left in overtime
She's on your mind
She's on your mind

And suddenly I become a part of your past
I'm becoming the part that don't last
I'm losing you and its effortless
Without a sound we lose sight of the ground
In the throw around
Never thought that you wanted to bring it down
I won't let it go down till we torch it ourselves

And everyone knows I'm in
Over my head
Over my head
With eight seconds left in overtime
She's on your mind
She's on your mind

Everyone knows
She's on your mind
Everyone knows I'm in over my head
I'm in over my head
I'm in over...

Meet me here
On November 11th, come alone
In your mind
As were wrapped in your hours
We watch these stars shine

ONE!
MORE!
TIME!
Kiss me for the sky above
Out
From
This cloud we are living on
To send us off

A kiss to send us off

Kill your doubts
With the coldest of weapons
Confidence
No more words, OOooooooooo
Just the sound of the splendour

ONE!
MORE!
TIME!

Kiss me for the sky above
Out
From
This cloud we are living on
To send us off

A kiss to send us off

Here I am, there you are
On a wire connecting our eyes
Theres a string, and it's tied, to a kite
Theres a storm, in the sky
Now the clouds become electric
Here I am, there you are Collide!

A kiss to send us off

When you're all wrong in the back of your mind again
How does it feel?
When you drop down everything's all the same
Saccharine caffeine nicotine gum
Yeah it tastes sweet but it's not for long
And I just think youtouhgt it would be
When you're looking for truth on the cover of a magazie
How does it feel?
When you find out what you're not gonna be
They give you your image and the things you believe
Open your eyes tell me what did you see
And I just think you thought it surreal

How does it feel when you're out on your own
And now it's too late to come home
And it's hard to be free when you're down on your knees
Take it easy till you make it alone
Now you're a supermarket punk rock television comedy
Out on the scene
Yeah I bit down now there's no hand to feed
And all the beautiful images lining your wall
Pop radio screaming down the halls
Now you think you found something real
When it's all about money and the things that you need
Live a big lie and they all believe
Now I just find that somehow obscene


How does it feel when you're out on your own
And now it's too late to come home
And it's hard to be free when you're down on your knees
Take it easy till you make it alone
Take it easy till you make it alone
What a scene
Yeah
When it's been said before
And all been done
Take it easy till you make it alone
