Move On
03:02
|

And I know the weight of how it's been
There's been things said that shouldn't have been
Gilded arms around you, my evergreen
Yeah I know what you expect from me
Good morning
I’m sorry
For the way that I was before
Sometimes I don’t think at all
Can we move on
Now I bring the lines of apologies
Can't you see my hands are shaking
And it's almost light and I haven't put right
The mess that I made
Like a phrase that stays unspoken
Good morning
I’m sorry
For the way that I was before
What I said was so unfair
I know that it’s too much
Sometimes I don’t think at all
Can we move on

All Over
03:23
|
|||
Oh my body speaks
Tells me when to breathe
I see in slow motion
Stood before the flames
Memories erased
Am I losing focus
All the pieces of me
Ripped apart at the seam
Nothing left but a feeling
It’s all over before we know it
The light moves closer
Cannot slow it down
When courage disappears
We learn to face our fear
We still remember when it’s all over
When it’s all over
Before the moment breaks
And colours start to change
I’ll count every second
I’ll try to contemplate
Did I make mistakes
Will I find forgiveness
All the pieces of me
Ripped apart at the seam
Nothing left but a feeling
It’s all over before we know it
The light moves closer
Cannot slow it down
When courage disappears
We learn to face our fear
We still remember when it’s all over
When it’s all over
When it’s all over
When it’s all over

After Midnight
03:07
|
|||
I don’t want to go out tonight
Oh my bones are tired
I’m not looking for a fight
You don’t want to stay home tonight
Is your mind on the outside
She said shall we go where all the people dance
I said I’d rather go somewhere quieter than that
Some street after midnight
Some street after midnight
Somewhere
I get lost by the third bar
Oh the room was spun
I don’t know where you are
And I’m gold in the streetlight
Take me to the next part
She said shall we go where all the people dance
I said I’d rather go somewhere quieter than that
Some street after midnight
Some street after midnight
She said shall I call a cab and take us home
I said I’d rather go somewhere else and be alone
Some street after midnight
Some street after midnight
Somewhere
Tell me why are we out so late
Rain’s coming down in waves
I’d do anything to be by your side
She said shall we go where all the people dance
I said I’d rather go somewhere quieter than that
Some street after midnight
Some street after midnight
Somewhere

Shed a skin, let it fall down
Cos I’m not sure who I’m supposed to be
Told a lie, caused another fight
Can we erase our whole bad history
Oh my heart
Oh my head
Full of you now and what you said
On my skin
In my breath
It’s not over, not over, not over
If I’m just lost in your light
Turn it out so I can see who I would be without you
If I stumble out in the night
I don’t know what’s left or right
But I know who I could be without you
Let’s learn to see in the dark
Let’s learn to see in the dark
Tread a line, let me fall down
Can we blame this on our old chemistry
Speak the truth, let it pour out
Still can’t change the way you think of me
Oh my head
Oh my heart
Full of you now and what you are
On my skin
In my breath
It’s not over, not over, not over
If I’m just lost in your light
Turn it out so I can see who I would be without you
If I stumble out in the night
I don’t know what’s left or right
But I know who I could be without you
Let’s learn to see in the dark
Let’s learn to see in the dark
Let’s learn to see in the dark
Let’s learn to see in the dark

Anchor
03:18
|
|||
People say time is cruel
They get so scared it’s gone too soon
I’ll be here in the ‘now’
When you’re with me time slows down
Through it all I’ll be next to you
If you fall I’ll be falling too
Doors will close and open again
Everything changes, nothing stays the same
If you let go, I’ll hold on to you
I’m your anchor
There’s parts of me in parts of you
In your voice and words you use
If you’re lost, all at sea
Cast adrift, think of me
Through it all I’ll be next to you
If you fall I’ll be falling too
Doors will close and open again
Everything changes, nothing stays the same
If you let go, I’ll hold on to you
I’m your anchor

Salt
03:08
|
|||
Oh my body speaks
Tells me when to breathe
I see in slow motion
Stood before the flames
Memories erased
Am I losing focus
Now we must keep on going
Road gets thin we keep moving
I smell salt
I see fire
We’re almost there
Standing with you on the beach
I see the miles of endless sea
And you and me on the edge of it all
Moon goes gold we keep swimming
Rain comes cold we keep walking
I smell salt
I see fire everywhere
We’re almost there
Standing with you on the beach
I see the miles of empty sea
And you and me on the edge of it all
Standing with you in this light
I feel the pull of the dark night
And you and me on the edge of it all
Standing with you on the beach
I see the miles of empty sea
And you and me on the edge of it all

Open Everything
03:43
|

How did we get here
Caught in the samphire
Lost in the spindrift
The further out we go
And you know where we are when we're lost
And you know we'll be safe when you're gone
And my heart was open wide to everything
And my heart was open wide to everything
We tried
Fade into silver
Cold set deep in bones
Dark shapes on water
Beneath the hailing stones
And you know where we are when we're lost
And you know we'll be safe when you're gone
And my heart was open wide to everything
And my heart was open wide to everything
Feet first we fall
Feet first we fall
And my heart was open wide to everything
And my heart was open wide to everything
And my heart was open wide to everything
And my heart was open wide to everything

Avenues
03:13
|
|||
Holding steady, done my best
Hand me the keys and I’ll pack up the rest
While you build up to leave
Hold fire, don’t forget me
I shout to your back
Avenues, where we knew what we wanted
And how we could be
Songs and letters that we’ve shared
Doesn’t mean shit if it don’t make you cry
Absolution, hallelujah! Hold my drink darling
I’m just getting started
Oh but please don’t go
Avenues, where we knew what we wanted
And how we could be
Avenues, now I lose the one thing that I had
Please don’t leave
Heaven knows where I go now
Avenues, where we knew what we wanted
And how we could be
Avenues, now I lose the one thing that I had
Please don’t leave
Just say the one thing that I could still do for you
I run down all the streets and the avenues
Where the leaves seem to spell out your name
Scattered then gathered then scattered again
All the pieces of me
Ripped apart at the seam
Nothing left but a feeling
It’s all over before we know it
The light moves closer
Cannot slow it down
When courage disappears
We learn to face our fear
We still remember when it’s all over
When it’s all over
Before the moment breaks
And colours start to change
I’ll count every second
I’ll try to contemplate
Did I make mistakes
Will I find forgiveness
All the pieces of me
Ripped apart at the seam
Nothing left but a feeling
It’s all over before we know it
The light moves closer
Cannot slow it down
When courage disappears
We learn to face our fear
We still remember when it’s all over
When it’s all over
When it’s all over
When it’s all over

Long Way Down
02:51
|
|||
I’m standing on the edge
And I can see myself falling to the ground
That little voice gets louder
And I cannot seem to quieten it back down
Slow motion, deep breaths
I can take another step
If you do the same
You go that way
It’s been a long road here
But look at all that we’ve done
Yeah it’s long way down
But don’t forget how far we’ve come
I’m standing on a bridge
And I can the river rushing down below
And if I leap or if don’t
I’m not sure that I could still let go
Slow motion, deep breaths
I’m not sure if I’m quite there
If you keep me safe
Then I’ll do the same
It’s a long road here
But look at all that we’ve done
Yeah it’s long way down
But don’t forget how far we’ve come

Atlantic Lullaby
03:29
|

Wander out into a silence
The lights keep going out
Hours and seconds float like leaves now
Onto the folded ground
Onto the folded ground
Falling, falling into a deep sleep
Til you wake and it’s all change
See the morning turn to silver
Then watch it turn again
I got lost inside a murmur
The sound of rain and passing cars
Stars and planes pass over quickly
The siren calls the heart
The siren calls the heart
Falling, falling into a deep sleep
Til you wake and it’s all change
See the morning turn to silver
Then watch it turn again
Let the ink black night suspend you
Get lost in velvet thoughts
All the noises turn to nothing
The words you missed are caught
The words you missed get caught
Falling, falling into a deep sleep
Til you wake and it’s all change
See the morning turn to silver
Then watch it turn again

Philip Seymour Hoffman

I am breathing the cold air that’s left
And my cheek is pressed against the floor
That is old and dirty evermore
As my spirit or whatever starts to flail
And the angels in their lab coats stare
As my thoughts disperse and turn to air
And I’m somewhere up above the scene
Who’s going to play me now?
Who’s going to play me now?
Oh no
I can see you in the Village below
Now I’m somewhere up beside the sun
Where my heart and mind have turned to one
And I’m thinking of a hotel before
Where the blinds are down against the moon
That is drawing lines across the room
And I’m somewhere in-between it all
Who’s going to play me now?
Who’s going to play me now?
Oh no
Who’s going to play me now?
Oh no
Now I’m staring at a postcard on the floor
That has found a home behind my desk
With the books of words and lines of text
That I spent a lifetime learning
Yet, there is nothing left

Skye
03:35
|
|||
Now your soul is tired
I see it in your eyes
And the blinds stay down
To hide the city light
So if you want to move on
You know I'd do the same thing
I'll daydream with you
If you put your whole life into boxes
I'll do the same thing too
If you move your whole world up to Skye
I'll follow you
And the words that fall
Slowly from your mouth
As they gather speed
And burn away our doubt
So if you want to move on
You know I'd do the same thing
I'll daydream with you
If you put your whole life into boxes
I'll do the same thing too
If you move your whole world up to Skye
I'll follow you
Do you need more stimulation
Maybe it's a simulation
Do you need more motivation
