Альбом The Graduate

It's just another lonely night that I can't sleep
You know it's scary how much I need you lying next to me
I dug a hole that I can't seem to climb out from
So much to carry but I won't stop until I know it's done
And it was harder than I ever expected
Though I seemed so calm and collected
I think I'm still recovering
Trying to find a way to stop digging

Out of control, I'm getting closer
End of the road
I know that I'm going where I'm not supposed to go
I don't care what they say anymore
Out of control, I'm getting closer
Nothing to hold
I know that I'm going where I'm not supposed to go
I don't care what they say anymore

Here comes another lonely night that I can't sleep
You know it's scary to think how much you know about me
Sometimes I think I'm making terrible mistakes
Are we just working our way up to another heartbreak
And it was harder than I ever expected
Though I seemed so calm and collected
I think I'm still recovering
Trying to find a way to stop digging

Out of control, I'm getting closer
End of the road
I know I'm going where I'm not supposed to go
I don't care what they say anymore
Out of control, I'm getting closer
Nothing to hold
I know I'm going where I'm not supposed to go
I don't care what they say anymore

It's getting late, still awake
I have been waiting for you
I have been waiting for you
Show me the way
We can escape
And I'll be waiting for you
We've got nothing to lose tonight

Out of control, I'm getting closer
End of the road
I know I'm going where I'm not supposed to go
I don't care what they say anymore
Out of control, I'm getting closer
Nothing to hold
I know I'm going where I'm not supposed to go
I don't care what they say anymore

Any day now
I'm passed out, looking back
While I'm waiting for the storm to pass
I'm a shipwreck
Stranded on a rocky coast
Are you ever gonna let me go
It's not what I want

So speak honestly
Give me something to believe
I'm already here so I'll stay
I'm all yours until they put me in my grave

Thoughts are strange
So I try not to think out loud
Fabrications turning me around
But truth was more than I could speculate
The one thing always missing comes too late
It's not what I want
Still I could never leave


So speak honestly
Give me something to believe
I'm already here so I'll stay
I'm all yours until they put me in my grave

Shadows swallowed in the night
And my heart is working overtime
Sirens calling out my name
Curious and dull, I'm easy pray
It's not what I want
Your lies are showing me follies of youth
No one loves you like I do
I'm already here so I'll stay
I'm all yours until they put me in my grave
I'm all yours until they put me in my grave

It all feels wrong tonight
These drinks are strong
And I hope one of these days
I'll learn to make it on my own
Not feeling strong enough
It's too complicated to settle up
But one of these days
I'll learn to make it on my own
How could I know
How could I know
I never should have let you go

So what's the point in waking up
When everything around me is falling
I'm stuck inside my head and can't get out
Can you hear me now
What's the point in waking up
When you are not around and I'm calling
For someone just to help me find the ground
So I can come back down

I stared into the light
Made more mistakes than I care to explain
Or even want to let you know
I'm feeling stronger now
I wish I could make it up somehow
Cause I can not stand another day alone
I should have known
I should have known
But still I let you go

So what's the point in waking up
When everything around me is falling
I'm stuck inside my head and can't get out
Can you hear me now
What's the point in waking up
When you are not around and I'm calling
For someone just to help me find the ground
So I can come back down

I am moving on
Won't you send me off
I know I can loved again
Hear me now
I'm calling out

So what's the point in waking up
When everything around me is falling
I'm stuck inside my head and can't get out
Can you hear me now
What's the point in waking up
When you are not around and I'm calling
For someone just to help me find the ground
So I can come back down

You can say anything you like
No one's listening
You can fool everyone outright
No one's paying attention

So long but how can you lose
When nobody tells the truth
They're talking through their teeth
All make believe

Our heads are spinning around
We don't like it underneath the ground
Our heads are spinning around
No one's dancing
No one hears a sound

Late night and we're feeling bad
Only feeling with our hands
We can't talk with the way you walk
All make believe

Our heads are spinning around
We don't like it underneath the ground
Our heads are spinning around
No one's dancing
No one hears a sound

Our heads are spinning around
We don't like it underneath the ground
Our heads are spinning around
No one's dancing
No one hears a sound

We don't like it underneath the ground

Our heads are spinning around
We don't like it underneath the ground
Our heads are spinning around
No one's dancing
No one hears a sound

Our heads are spinning around
We don't like it underneath the ground
Our heads are spinning around
No one's dancing
No one hears a sound

We don't like it underneath the ground

Can't see the path ahead
But I can smell the rain
Hide beneath the canopy
I never would complain
Eyes on the sky
We see the darkness start to grow
We could build a fire
Or just wait to drive
Here we are fine
I'm home

We traded everything and left the country side
Metal towers, skylines
Over lucid starlit nights
Found a north side neighborhood
That we could call our own
I'm just fine, I'm alive
I am home

I'm falling over edges with you
I'm longing just to see your face again
I'm taking on the world
To give you everything you need while I'm away

All our friends in our hometown
They don't call us anymore
I can't remember feeling less alone
When you call me yours

I'm falling over edges with you
I'm longing just to see your face again
I'm taking on the world
To give you everything you need while I'm away
I'm falling over edges with you
I'm longing just to see your face again
I'm taking on the world
To give you everything you need while I'm away

I pack my things at night
While you sleep
You could never stand to watch me leave
Wake up with the sun
Pull me in
And I'm in love with the whole world again
I'm falling over edges with you
I'm longing just to see

I'm falling over edges with you
I'm longing just to see your face again
I'm taking on the world
To give you everything you need while I'm away

Leave all your clothes buried in the sand
Who knows when we'll be coming back again
Come on in, the water's getting cold
See if you sink or swim or float
When the tide came in, we tried to act surprised
What could the ocean want with the things that we left behind
Swimming back to land and I realized
It was the only time that year I felt alive

We booked a one way going overseas
Feels like I'm living someone else's dream
I tried my best to keep from turning back
I'm scared you may have been my better half

I'm on the edge about to choke
About to choke, about to choke
I'm on the edge about to choke
About to choke, about to choke

The story ends the same as it began
I never know when I'll be coming around again
Staring at the sand I realized
It was the only time that year that I felt alive

I'm on the edge about to choke
About to choke, about to choke
I'm on the edge about to choke
About to choke, about to choke

I lost control, careening all directions
I just don't know where to go
Come turn me on
There's light inside me somewhere
I just don't know where to go
Sold out of state and out of mind

I'm still lonely with you
Still only hanging on
Time is passing by
And nothing seems to change my mind
I'm still lonely with you

Play by the rules
And all you do is lose
Just don't know where to go
I'm not convinced
Cold is slowly building thicker skin
Today I'm taking back my loneliness
So move me slow
Even though I'm only halfway there

I'm still lonely with you
Still only hanging on
Time is passing by
And nothing seems to change my mind
I'm still lonely with you
Still only hanging on
Time is passing by
And nothing seems to change

Don't waste my time
Everything you do
Has got me out of state and out of mind
If you'd only let me through
I will meet you on the other side
I lost control, careening all directions
Just don't know where to go

I'm still lonely with you
Still only hanging on
Time is passing by
And nothing seems to change my mind
I'm still lonely with you
Still only hanging on
Time is passing by
And nothing seems to change

Alone on a plane
I woke to the engine stop
Plan a course outside
Just to get caught up
By every obstacle along the way
So much to explain
And only a single day to plead my case
There's nothing else to do
Just hope it's not too late
For far too long
I kept you in the dark
Can't believe it took so long to start

How can I find you now
Cause it feels like time is running out
And I said when I left
That would not ever let you down
Gotta find my way back somehow
I am much older now
And I feel like time running out
When we get to the end
Can you promise that you'll be around
If I make you that promise now

Back out on the endless road that's become my home
This entire year on the lamb has shown me
All the more that this is in my blood
I don't mean to alarm
But the past two months have left me hysterical
It's time for something new
I get crazy without you
And all along we tried to keep apart
Can't believe it took so long to start

How can I find you now
Cause it feels like time is running out
And I said when I left
That would not ever let you down
Gotta find my way back somehow
I am much older now
And I feel like time running out
When we get to the end
Can you promise that you'll be around
If I make you that promise now

Driving back to our town
Take it slow, keep it down
Put this mess in the ground
Just my love, you came around
Now it seems we'll let it shine
Mine and yours, yours and mine

The longer that you wait
The harder it'll be
So if you want to stay
Why don't you come with me

Don't shut me out
I don't want to live inside your lost and found
You spin a story with every other word you say
Another lie convincing me to stay
You only listen to my stare
Until I'm crushed beyond repair

So do you care enough to hold on
It's been so long
You'll be pulling on the strings til I'm undone
All at once
Don't cut me off
Until you help me find a way to live with the loss

You've got me wound up too tight
Don't catch on til it's too late
Keep me moving like a moth to flame
Zoom by you at first sight
Every time I try to get away
Something new's convincing me to stay

So do you care enough to hold on
It's been so long
You'll be pulling on the strings til I'm undone
All at once
Don't cut me off
Until you help me find a way to live with the loss

Could I have changed it
What more could I have sacrificed
There's always something to say
Stop me before I go to waste
Play with my love
Rip it up till I say enough

So do you care enough to hold on
It's been so long
You'll be pulling on the strings til I'm undone
All at once
Don't cut me off
Until you help me find a way to live with the loss

One more sign taking shape
This could be my undoing
And I can't wait to be there
When all my bided time and dragging through my days
Comes to an end
Just a phase
And we will finally see the truth in everything
We can't explain

All of my dreams are filling a cesspool
So many things I couldn't handle
We are corrupt to the core
This guilt is gonna fill me up
Til I overflow

Still I want more that I can't win
Make this bided time and dragging through my days
Come to an end
Such a shame
That we may never see the truth in everything
We can't explain

Cause hope has never been enough
To be sure is asking for too much
Everything I try seems so impossible
Everything I have would be enough for someone else
But I want more

I can't win
Make this bided time and dragging through my days
Come to an end
Such a shame
That we may never see the truth in everything
We can't explain

One more sign taking shape
This could be my undoing

In a youth alone
Tied me up against a sinking stone
Cracking when I bend
Shouldered by the moon, the sun, the wind
How dare they break the news
Can't they see I'm sore through every pain
Clearly too involved
Just waiting for the next turn to get off

Let me hear you say again
Nothing innocent is every planned
Let me hear you say again
Nothing decent is every planned
