Light starts in a dark place
The story of a car chase
And I've become the criminal
And fleeing from this scene
And being caught in a bad dream
The truth becomes the unthinkable (yeah)

I'm on the brink of disaster
Starin' down the consequences
So brake hard we'll be better
Tonight I'll do what it takes to fail
Goin' there only faster
Jump the gun and throw it into gear
But the fact of the matter
We're out of control asleep at the wheel
Asleep at the wheel
We're out of control asleep at the wheel

Night falls with no grace
I said I can do anything
But I can do anything wrong
And with burning speed
The ridge he says is catching up to me
But I'm already gone

I'm on the brink of disaster
Starin' down the consequences
So brake hard we'll be better
Tonight I'll do what it takes to fail
Goin' there only faster
Jump the gun and throw it into gear
But the fact of the matter
We're out of control asleep at the wheel
Asleep at the wheel

Tearin' it down to open up the highway
We're looking for an exit
No pretending
Speeding out and around with a silvering smash
Starin' at a car crash oh
The chase is ending

I'm on the brink of disaster
Starin' down the consequences
So brake hard we'll be better
Tonight I'll do what it takes to fail
I'm goin' there only faster
Jump the gun and throw it into gear
But the fact of the matter
The end is coming

I'm on the brink of disaster
Starin' down the consequences
So break hard we'll be better
We're out of control asleep at the wheel
Asleep at the wheel
Asleep at the wheel
Asleep at the wheel
We're out of control asleep at the wheel

. . .



These lights and numbers are a bright sign
Smoke filled casinos
But what do we know
We'll take a chance
Looking for cheap thrills and fast rides
Spin till we're dizzy
Then gamble the sleep and now we dance

We stumble up and down the concrete
Led by distraction
The empty attraction leads us blind
Never intending for the complete
Like shadows and alleyways
The unknown continues biding time

We're chasing heaven as it fades into black
Can't get it back no we cannot get it back
It's like we're running crazy 8's around the track
Can't wait to come back, Can't wait to come back

Could you stay with me tonight?
We sleep we're dreaming and away it goes
And I think you'll believe one last time
You've got that feeling as my heart explodes

Sit your drink up on the cop car
Playing illegally
I'm bored of the fantasy
I'm done
I've never ever loved you so hard
But is that reality?
We can't face the battle in the dark

We're chasing heaven as it fades into black
Can't get it back no we cannot get it back
It's like we're running crazy 8's around the track
Can't wait to come back, Can't wait to come back

Could you stay with me tonight?
We sleep we're dreaming and away it goes
And I think you'll believe one last time
You've got that feeling as my heart explodes

We sit, we think, and we figure
Out just right where to start
As these waters rush together
We keep ripping them apart
Is this truth, is this real, is there something more to feel?
Do we change the sensation on the line again?
Have we now reached the end just to find the beginning again?

Could you stay with me tonight?
We sleep we're dreaming and away it goes
And I think you'll believe one last time
You've got that feeling as my heart explodes

[repeat]

. . .



I thought that part of me was what she'd want
But she got the whole thing
And there's no doubting anything she does
She gets inside me

To think it'd be this clear
Above the atmosphere
I'm flying with no fear now

I was always floating around
Head in the clouds
Thinking I could make it on my own (sometimes I can't make it on my own)
Falling down as my back hit the ground
It felt like a heartbeat; time to get out
Well if you take it, tried and can't fake it
But sometimes I can't make it alone
Sometimes I can't make it alone

She's staring into me with all she's got
Oh what a bright thing!
She fills the space between with air to breathe
She's got inside me

To think it'd be this clear
Above the atmosphere
I'm flying with no fear now

I was always floating around
Head in the clouds
Thinking I could make it on my own (sometimes I can't make it on my own)
Falling down as my back hit the ground
It felt like a heartbeat; time to get out
Well if you take it, tried and can't fake it
But sometimes I can't make it alone
Sometimes I can't make it alone

I think I've always been afraid to fly
Without a reason why
Tonight, you and I go faster and faster
Higher, higher

I was always floating around
Head in the clouds
Thinking I could make it on my own (sometimes I can't make it on my own)
Falling down as my back hit the ground
It felt like a heartbeat; time to get out
Well if you take it, tried and can't fake it
[repeat]

I was always floating around
Head in the clouds
Thinking I could make it on my own (sometimes I can't make it on my own)
Falling down as my back hit the ground
It felt like a heartbeat; time to get out
Well if you take it, tried and can't fake it
But sometimes I can't make it alone
Sometimes I can't make it alone

. . .



We've got all night just to make it all right
Would you take a walk with me?
I'll give you all I've got just spare me your time
And I promise you won't want to leave
Are you, are you falling for me?
This time, we'll find what we both need

There's an old oak tree
We can swing and sway
Will our guards away (You're so far away)
When I look at you
You're so far away
Oh so far away
Oh if you could you just let go

Would you rest with me just for a while
I'll take you out of harms way
Like these branches that shelter the rain
We could lay here in our own shade
Are you, are you falling for me?
Just watch, the two of us will see

There's an old oak tree
We can swing and sway
Will our guards away (You're so far away)
When I look at you
You're so far away
Oh so far away

There is so much that I could give to you
Just say you want me to
I know these roots could break the ground
And in the meantime our leaves will turn
But rest assured
We'll get through anything
Are you, are you falling for me
Like I'm oh I'm falling for you

There's an old oak tree
We can swing and sway
Will our guards away (You're so far away)
It's just you and me
We could get away
We can get away (You're so far away)
In this lover's play
We are happy here oh in every way
Oh and then we just let go
Just let go
Just let go
Just let go

. . .



I know we both need a change
I thought I had it made
In the worst way

We made our share of mistakes
Like a Hurricane
Oh Bringing me on display
For the world to see, yeah

But would you believe
I'm on top
You were the best
I did know I didn't have
And now that I'm here On Top
Oh there's chance that you're all I have

I'd say you're the luckiest one you know
So why did you even go
In the first place
I'd give whatever it takes
Like A Hurricane
Oh Taking Me On Parade
For the world to see, yeah

But would you believe
I'm on top
You were the best
I did know I didn't have
And now that I'm here On Top
Oh there's chance that you're all I have

On top, On Top

When the fear of heights sets in this time
Looking down like I can just go fly

Hurricane
Oh taking me
On display
For the world to see, yeah

But would you believe
I'm on top
You were the best
I did know I didn't have
See I can only give it to you
When you were on top
Oh there's chance that you're all I have

On top! [x4]

. . .


Once alone and too afraid of strangers knocking on my door
And when you came in I knew you'd win
I was sitting on the front porch swinging
And waiting

I tried walking with you in mind
Looking down saw my feet were tied
Got to thinking how easy it would be
Within the fear and the chains being a part of me
And I'm waiting

Always waiting
For my ride to pick me up
On my time
Seems I'm staying
As the others cross finish lines
I could break with the day
I could set into speed
But to tell you the truth
I'm always waiting
Always waiting
Caged in like the beautiful view
And I was waiting for the night when I could soar with you
And when you pick me up release me to fly
If I had only kept my own wings dry
I'm waiting

Always waiting
For my ride to pick me up
On my time
Seems I'm staying
As the others cross finish lines
I could break with the day
I could set into speed
But to tell you the truth
I'm always waiting
Always waiting

(Don't wanna fly...)

Always waiting
For my ride please pick me up
Tonight
I can't stay here
I know I can see the finish line
So I break with the day
And set into speed
But I'm driving away
Are you driving to me
To tell you the truth I'm always waiting
Always

Always we must find our ways (da da da)

Always (da da da)
All I could do was drive away

Always (da da da)

. . .


Tonight, a black out
A panic attack plan with no time to figure it out
We've issued a code red already dead
No open sign, no beak of light
That said:

Don't give it away
You want the truth
Its all answers now

All hands on deck we're going down
All hands on deck we're going down

Screaming, the end is near
So rest in peace cause we're the ones that put ourselves here
Water rises, now hold your breath and count down
This ship of sinners and saints are just waiting to drown

Don't give it away
You want the truth
Its all answers now

All hands on deck, we're going down
No plan but ours can take us now
So try to understand
Since we got lost and we get tossed around

All hands on deck we're going down

Aaaaaaaaaa
Aaaaaaaaaa

Of all the chaos and order there's no drift to catch the law of the unknown
So take refunds on your borders where
The truth is that we all must die alone

All hands on deck we're going down
No plan but ours can take us now
So try understand
Since we got lost and we get tossed around

All hands on deck we're going down

. . .



I heard the old man say we need the rain
And I can feel it in my bones they're aching
I watched the sky and wait and wish these waters ease my pain
Because my will is breaking

If you get next to me and help me find simplicity
Then you could be the one to take me,
To break me and find my soul

Could you be the one to release me? (oh release me)
Waiting for your love
Oh to free me, so release me

Grey clouds, they infiltrate as every move you make
Gets me closer to clarity
While droplet drummers lead a complex beat increasing speed
Somehow accompanies our intensities

At first this cloud burst is pulling us under
Lightning and thunder, rain falls and you take me under
And find my self

Could you be the one to release me? (oh release me)
Waiting for your love
Oh to free me, so release me

So take off your shoes and stay awhile
This might be the right time tonight
If it makes you feel good
Then it makes me feel alright

We should take down the curtains now
And make blankets here on the floor
The potential downpour, the potential for more
I seize to fight this tension that ignites us in the dark
Cuz tension causes friction and this friction leads to sparks

The rain has filled this cup and, before it over flows
I wanna take you in now here it goes

Could you be the one to release me? (oh release me)
Waiting for your love
Oh to free me, so release me

Could you be the one to release me? (oh release me)
We have just begun
You release me, oh release me

. . .


I'll stare into the mirror just long enough to feel
Because I know that you are coming for me and you're here
I see my feet are losing grip and contact with the ground
Oh no. Here we go, yeah.

It reminds me of a reoccurring nightmare with the theme
I'm stuck inside the TV like a pixilated dream
You look at me for answers but my mouth is drying out
Trade whispers for shouts and let me out

It's all slipping away
Can't save the truth for another day
It's all slipping away
And I can feel it overtaking me

Slip away!
Slipping away!

I never took the time with you to reflect and refract
My subject took attention from your plan it can in fact
And looking from the outside in is what we always lacked
Oh no. Here we go, yeah.

It's all slipping away
Can't save the truth for another day
It's all slipping away
And I can feel it overtaking me

Slip away!
Slipping away!

What's done is done and what will be will be
So take perspective off of me
Let's flip the focus and look ahead to see
A new reality

It's all slipping away
Can't save the truth for another day
It's all slipping away
And I can feel it overtaking me

Slip away
Slipping away
Slip away
Slipping away

. . .



I, I had a dream just you and me
And it was all that I wanted to be
And so much more 'cause we could soar
No gravity keeping me on the floor

Please don't let me float too high

Fly away with me
You've got just what I need
Will you be my rocket?

Now, now that we're here it is so clear
This is just how that I dreamed it to be
Stars are falling it's just you and me
The beginning

Please don't let me float too high

Fly away with me
You've got just what I need
Will you be my rocket?

It's strange when I feel the change
I remember that anything is possible
You're the same you take me away
I won't hesitate or I'll crash and burn and fade

Fly away with me
You've got just what I need
Will you be my rocket?

Fly away with me
Rocket take me to the sky
You've got just what I need
Will you be my rocket tonight?

. . .



Now I've been sneaking out your back door
Since I can't remember when
And thinking about the world I didn't know
But now I find I'm in the thick of it
And feeling so alone
I'd take a chance
Just one more chance
To get me anywhere
Been running down any road but home

I know I'm running and I'm moving too fast
So we will go home
And where I'm headed to it's nobody's guess
So we will go home
So when we go home

I saw the map like any other one
I cannot find and follow lines
That led me to question
But I can see it in the symmetry
It's what was really always meant to be
The singularity is clearer from the distance
So I'd die here to fall in love with home

I know I'm running and I'm moving too fast
So we will go home
And where I'm headed to it's nobody's guess
So we will go home
So when we go home

Staring into mirrors
Lost in the design
Believe in dreams
And wait for signs
You will always find me
When I run away
But I will not slow down until I make it back into your arms

I know I'm running and I'm moving too fast
So we will go home
And where I'm headed to it's nobody's guess
So we will go home

I know I'm running and I'm moving too fast
Woah Oh
And where I'm headed to, it's only to guess
Woah Oh
I'm headed Home Oh Oh Oh
I'm headed Home Oh Oh Oh

. . .


Tonight I dreamt we found a fair of wonders
Where the future and the past could not contain
We were greeted by a spell that took us under
And laid down in a field that revelates

To me and you this dream we share
I believed a perfect pair
Oh, but I was wrong
This fair comes with a price
Because tonight I'll wake up twice
And, both times find you gone

Reflections
Is all we have and when it's over
Reflections
Of the path that sends us searching
Over and over again

Too quick to fall asleep again to find you
I'm rushing through a dream I can't control
This house of mirrors beckons us to walk through
But in a second I'll have to let you go
Stuck here in this stare
Revealed beyond the glare
Again you're gone
So throw a stone through these reflections
Scatter light in all directions
And sing this song

Reflection
Is all we have and when it's over
Reflections
Of the path that sends us searching
Over and over again
(Over and over over and over over and over over and over)

When does this physical
Meet with the spiritual
Is this the typical question?
But down below and up above
It looks the same
So I'm not so sure of anything
Where will love come from again


Reflection
Is all we have
And when it's over
Reflections
Of the path that sends us searching

Reflection
Is all we have
And when it's over
Redirections
Is the path that sends us searching (searching, searching)
