Альбом The Rocket Summer

Can you see the air change?
Can you see that a hear breaks?
I know that both do happen.

But all I want is faith.
Because I can feel this,
And so much so I believe it.
But still there is a struggle,
And all I want is faith.

And I believe I'll move the mountains,
I think,
Or maybe I'll drown in the sea.

Keep holding on,
All I got is holding on these roses,
The thorns keep on digging but my soul believes...please.

So here I breathe in oxygen I can't see,
The oxygen that keeps me alive and wary,
Oh, yes I do perceive
That like the birds find provision and sanctuary,
You do this even more so for me...

But all I want is faith.
And I believe I'll more the mountains,
I think
Or maybe I'll drown in the sea.

Keep holding on,
All I got is holding on these roses,
The thorns keep on digging but my soul believes...please.

Places, seasons,
Millions of pieces,
Together and all alone,
Needing, Repeating,
Living and bleeding,
Lost in the cohesion.
Stagnant or will I run?
Give up or will I run into arms that are open?
Get rid of all the fear,
I know that you are here.

Keep holding on,
All I got is holding on these roses,
The thorns keep on digging but my soul believes...I see!

And it's reminding me
That the thorns you wear
Is love that we must share.

Sir, excuse my rudeness
but I believe that I know somethin' that you don't
because you are talkin' down to me, like you think I know nothing.
And I wont allow it, this promise prowess,
Though I respect you, even through the prejudice.
You're blind leadin' blind's not hard to see, yeah

You gotta believe
Oh yeah
Don't fear, don't break it
You gotta be free (Ah, Ah)
I hope your blinded eyes will see

You can ask me anythin'
I may not know the answers to everythin'
Nor I won't before I can do is speak from my heart
A vapid sentiment
And I won't be clever, with your endeavor
All tryin' to prove me wrong, I will remember
You're blind leadin' blind's not hard to see, yeah

You gotta believe
Oh yeah
Don't fear, don't break it
You gotta be free (Ah, Ah)
I hope your blinded eyes will see

You gotta believe
Oh yeah
D-Don't fear, don't break it
You gotta be free (Ah, Ah)
I hope your blinded eyes will see, Yeah

Ah Ah

Whatever the cost, whatever I lost
Whatever I gained, whatever I fought
I knew I was tested, and I am the furthest
From what you think it is worth it

You gotta believe
Oh alright
Don't fear, don't break it
You gotta be free (Ah, Ah)
I hoped your blinded eyes will see

You gotta believe
Yeah
D-D-Don't fear, don't break it
You gotta be free (You gotta believe)
Don't, don't let him hold you down

C'mon, c'mon, sing it

Whoah Whoah, Whoah Whoah, Whoah Whoah
Whoah Whoah, Whoah Whoah, Whoah Whoah

Yeah

Oh, I hope my eyes will see
You gotta believe
Whoah Whoah, Whoah Whoah, Yeah

I'm on the top of the world,
I can see it all around me,
Such beautiful words,
Leaving, in oceans

Ooh, Ooh
I can feel it, never felt this before
Ooh, yeah

Got a beautiful woman,
Coming off of hard and harder times,
Gonna be starting something,
That gets us, straight up outta here

Ooh, Ooh
I can fix it, let me take us away
Ooh, yeah
Leave by night, and stay by day

Say your with me,
There's gold ahead, there's golden dreams
And life's hells and bad pleas,
yeah will you hold on with me

Ooh, Ooh
Let me take us, let me take us away
Ooh, Ooh
Alright

Drove out to California,
Straight through the desert of Arizona,
Sweet Texas I'll kiss ya,
Hope to be back, but now I gotta leave ya

Ooh, Ooh
I can fix it, let me take us away
Ooh, yeah
Leave by night, and stay by day

Say your with me,
There's gold ahead, there's golden dreams
And life's hells and bad pleas,
yeah will you hold on with me

I wouldn't know,
Just how sweet this tastes now,
No, if at first I did not go,
Through better times, Through better places,
I stay and learn new battles

Say your with me,
There's gold ahead, there's golden dreams
And life's hells and bad pleas,
yeah will you hold on with me

Ooh, Ooh
Let me take us, let me take us away [x3]
Ooh, Ooh

The story of my life
I can’t quite comprehend
Don’t tell me if you know how it ends
When everywhere you go feels like a mirror maze
And you’re not sure how you’re stuck in this place

And you got nowhere else to go
And you’re lost within your own home
And you’re trying so hard to win
You keep trying its embarrassing
And how you don’t even know
But you know you’re off the tracks
And how did you get in here
Thinking how did I get in here

I’ll help you break the walls down
I’ll help you break the walls down
And bust you out and take you home
Believe in me you are not alone
I’ll help you break the walls down

Does anybody know a February wind
I was hoping that by now
We would be the end of this
When you open up a book
And read a thousand lines
But you don’t really read
You just move your eyes

And you got nowhere else to go
And you’re lost within your own home
And you’re trying so hard to win
You keep trying its embarrassing
And how you don’t even know
But you know you’re off the tracks
And how did you get in here
Thinking how did I get in here

I’ll help you break the walls down
I’ll help you break the walls down
And bust you out and take you home
Believe in me you are not alone
I’ll help you break the walls down

And I know this is random
But just this morning I saw
The sun reflecting off the window
Oh I don’t know why
But I thought you should know

When you got nowhere else to go
And you’re lost within your own home
And you’re trying so hard to win
You keep trying its embarrassing
And how you don’t even know
But you know you’re off the tracks
And how did you get in here
Thinking how did I get in here

I’ll help you break the walls down
I’ll help you break the walls down
And bust you out and take you home
Believe in me you are not alone
I’ll help you break the walls down

And all the weight will carry
Will disappear and I will willingly
Embrace your soul
Lay your head
So come on home
come on home
come on home
Yeah yeah
Yeah yeah
Yeah yeah

Pretty mess, with a pretty voice
Humming in my ear,
drowning out the world's noise
Such a pretty one, such a mixed up one
I once was lost, then I was found
I wanna make things better the second time around
What a precious sound
Hearing the words a second time around

And how will you understand?
As if I would back then.
How will they understand,
that's who I was not who I am?
And I'm not a perfect soul,
and I'll fall again, I know.

I must pull myself together
This is a brand new day
Pull myself away from my mistakes
Pull myself together,
It's time to let the waves pull me, take me away

And I know for you this must be hard,
giving me a second start
And I know I'm a little bit late
but please don't hate, hate me
Don't hate, hate me

Chain of lies, chain of events
The keys are in your reach,
but not in your hands
You don't have to be
a quote good unquote person to be let free

And how will you understand?
As if I would back then.
How will they understand,
that's who I was not who I am?
And I'm not a perfect soul,
and I'll fall again, I know, but oh

I must pull myself together
This is a brand new day
Pull myself away from my mistakes
Pull myself together,
It's time to let the waves just take me, pull me away

And I know for you this must be hard,
giving me a second start
And I know I'm a little bit late
but please don't hate, hate me
Don't hate, hate me

So pull myself together
This is a brand new day
Pull myself away from my mistakes
Pull myself together,
It's time to let the waves just take me, pull me away

And I know for you this must be hard,
giving me a second start
And I know I'm a little bit late
but please don't hate, hate me
Don't hate, hate me

The crazy new you(?) you're running for
is right here where you're at

Stop the press, everything’s a mess
You can look alive, but you are not at rest.
And i-ideas are flowing through your head
A million miles an hour while lying in your bed
A lucid life you never thought you’d lead
Are you working everyday?
Are you working just to bleed?
I know [x5]

You’re staring at the (???)
The feeling you deserve what you’ve heard
But it doesn’t go that way

[Bridge:]
Oh, the tongues of men and angels
I speak but lack love.
Oh, love, will I stab you in the back?
Working everyday,
I’m afraid I forgot to show what’s most important: love

[Chorus:]
Here I am, dear Lord, tasting hints of fame
And I don’t want it anymore
If it’s not you that I gain
Wanna fall at your feet
Don’t wanna fall from your peace
I understand

Have you ever been the man that just ran
When you knew that God was talking?
Have you ever heard his voice through the noise
But just let it go away?

Oh, the tongues of men and angels
I speak but lack love.
Oh, love, will I stab you in the back?
How can I go with mine instead of yours
When yours is always right
I’m sorry just pour into me love.

[Chorus:]
Here I am, dear Lord, tasting hints of fame
And I don’t want it anymore
If it’s not you that I gain
Wanna fall at your feet
Don’t wanna fall from your peace
I understand

A heart at rest is harder now
Don’t let it go away
A hard earned pay, a hard earned pain
Right now they’re just the same
What’s the use, why work so hard
When it’s not what you crave
When what you need is: love.

[Chorus x2]

Daddy taught me how to fight
Working hard all his life
I started out as a teen
And I remember these things

Calloused hands, seven days (?)
You gotta fight to get your pay
And what I need, I know (?)
But I'm about to lose control

I need a break, but I'd rather have a breakthrough
I'm losing my sleep running after you
But still, I'd rather have a breakthrough
So I don't stop making moves
I need a break, but I'd rather have a breakthrough
I'm tripping on hurdles running after you
But I can see it right at my fingertips (?)
(Something after that, but I can't quite get it.)

Mama said it's all right
If you're crying if you lose a fight
Daddy said dry it up.
I'm proud of you not giving up.
I've been battling so many years,
and I stood up to many fears.
So keep the faith, this I know,
but I'm about to lose control.

I need a break, but I'd rather have a breakthrough
I'm losing my sleep running after you
But still, I'd rather have a breakthrough
So I don't stop making moves
I need a break, but I'd rather have a breakthrough
I'm tripping on hurdles running after you
But I can see it right at my fingertips (?)
(Something after that, but I can't quite get it.)

I don't know anymore.
What am I waiting for?
I know, I know I'm giving it all I have.
I want, I want to give up so bad.
How come I keep on running?
But I feel it coming,
I feel it coming on.

I need a break, but I'd rather have a breakthrough
I'm losing my sleep running after you
But still, I'd rather have a breakthrough
So I don't stop making moves
I need a break, but I'd rather have a breakthrough
I'm tripping on hurdles running after you
But I can see it right at my fingertips (?)
(Something after that, but I can't quite get it.)

I need to catch a break.
Yeah, I hope I catch a break.

Back and forth
I have come to this, so listen
If you are interested in it
I hope not too busy to miss
And this epiphany I just had

And I know it's not too sexy
That I'm singing about the blessings we get
When we give up ourselves for something good
It would be bigger than a promotion, motion-motion

Because nothing matters
Just tell yourself
Again and again
Nothing matters
But what we offer in love

And just today my boss came in
And said no way, no way
We don't have money money money
I got so mad, walked out the studio
And there was a man quiet and hungry
Down and out
True story, yeah uh-huh

Nothing matters
Pride will shatter
Our words will never be enough
Cause nothing matters
So I'll surrender to you

And oh how the war wages on
The battle of my heart
The face of truth is what I want
And all that I've discovered is that

Nothing matters
Just tell yourself
Again and again
That nothing matters

Nothing matters
Pride will shatter
Our words will never be enough
Cause nothing matters
But love

The things that chase
That status i crave
Its nothing, its nothing
The investment, the bankers
Think about it

I might as well be a Japanese exchange student
Cause' people wouldn't know me, right when I show up
But then the thrill wears off, and then I'm alone
until Beyonce rolls through town,
and I think that I can call and score a ticket
When I can't.

Cause' I don't know her, like you don't know me
It's a lonely world when it's all that you see
It doesn't matter if I got a good heart in me
This gets lonely.

I might as well be a Japanese exchange student
Cause' people wouldn't know me, right when I show up
But then the thrill wears off, and then I'm alone
Until Paul McCartney rolls through town,
and I think that I can get in on the guest list,
When I can't.

Cause' I don't know him like you don't know me.
It's a lonely thing when it's all that you see.
It doesn't matter if I got a good heart in me.
This gets lonely.

Last year I got the cover,
my phone wouldn't stop ringing and ringing.
They called in on my mother and that is saying something
Well maybe it's been quiet, my phone just picks up dust
Cause' it's all about who you know,
and not about if you really know anyone.

So, hey, be nice to the Japanese exchange students,
Cause' people wouldn't know them, right when they show up,
And they have found yourself in a similar place
Where you found you looked around and just saw loads of empty space.
And you were thinking how you don't know them,
like they don't know you.
It's a lonely feeling after all that you do.
Got a good heart, got a good soul, what must I do to prove it anymore?
I got friends in high and low places,
and it's all the same to me.

I love the Japanese, I love the Japanese,
those from Japan and overseas.
I love the Japanese, do you love the Japanese?
Those from Japan and overseas,
Those from Japan and overseas, like me.

Reminisce, thinking about the days we don't miss
Hit the bottom when I fell, but oh well
And I could stay here stuck
Thinking about the days of bad luck
I'll get lost in your voice
It's an easy choice
And something in your smile says everything's gonna be alright

Wasn't always this easy
It wasn't always like it was today
Wasn't always this easy
And I will hold onto this moment
This memory so sweet

What are your dreams?
Tell me what they are and I'll believe
An angel without wings
To the sweetest things
To hear the songs we've sung
Listening to how far we've come
To secret stones we've sailed
But today prevailed

And something in your smile says everything's gonna be alright
It wasn't always this easy
It wasn't always like it was today
It wasn't always this easy
And I will hold onto this moment
This memory

And Tara, I'm terrible for telling the whole world
About how you're so terrible
Intolerant of my crazy antics

Hey!
I didn't want to give this up. I didn't.
Hey!
I didn't want to throw it all away
They said I'd forever never go
But I didn't I didn't leave it

Watching from a sinking ship (alright)
Hear the record skip (burning airlines).
Fearful in my bones
Am I alive or am I just dying inside just to get by?

I'm so sick and tired of the liar that's in my life
I'm so sick and tired of the fire that won't ignite
I'm sick of myself for letting you get to me
Taking everything that I'm supposed to be

Hey!
I didn't want to give this up. I didn't
Hey!
I didn't want to throw it all away.
They said I'd forever never go, but I didn't.
I didn't leave it.

The states, Europe and to Japan.
I'm a complicated man.
I used to never stand up.
Now I won't back down, don't try to shut me up.

I'm so sick and tired of the liar that's in my life.
I'm so sick and tired of the fire that won't ignite.
I'm sick of myself for letting you get to me,
Taking everything that I'm supposed to be.

Hey!
I didn't want to give this up. I didn't.
Hey!
I didn't want to throw it all away.
They said I'd forever never go, but I didn't.
I didn't leave it.

Hey!
I didn't want to give this up. I didn't.
Hey!
I didn't want to throw it all away.
They said I'd forever never go, but I didn't.
Take that, take that out, take it out.

I didn't know
Somebody surprised me, alarmed, alarmed
Somebody has made it this far, this far

I don't wanna let you go [x2]
You know it's so, it's so hard
I don't wanna let you go [x2]
(Somebody has waited, too far)

And if somebody tells you
You're not enough
If somebody tells you
You're not good enough
If somebody tells you this,
It isn't just
Yes, I'm burning up
And I'm calling all the bluffs

I don't wanna let you go
But if the weather changes, I can't mind
And I don't wanna give you up
But I might this time
Hope the new grass you seek
Is greener than the greenest green
And if it's not, or if it is
I just hope you'll be
At peace, at least

So go ahead
Compare the petty issues
To all the awesome days
Somebody is waiting
Too long to stay awake

There is a beautiful ending
But you're never gonna read the book
I know you won't [x2]
There's a magical ending
But you're never gonna read the book
I know you won't [x2]

Walk away
I know it hurts
Don't be afraid
And know your worth
Just walk away
I know it hurts

[Нет текста]

All I needed was a light
In the darkest place
I've ever been in all my life
As I try to find my way
And the changing seasons of my life
And my eyes don't see
The things I love have run their course
Are they done
Are they just beginning

And I'm old enough to know
That time doesn't move slow enough
And young enough to know
That I can't ever be too old enough to trust you
Higher and higher
I wanna go there with you
Some say your fire, your fire
Is through
And I don't wanna think that way

So you lost your job and lost the girl
And you crushed your soul
Around you standing out of reach
Before you know
So you wet your? finger
Hold it up
But there's no wind there
Telling you where you where you should go
So you try, try to trust
While you bear it

And I'm old enough to know
That time doesn't move slow enough
And young enough to know
That I can't ever be too old enough to trust you
Higher and higher
I wanna go there with you
Some say your fire, your fire
Is through
But I don't...

I am Yours, do what You wish
I am Yours, I am Yours
And I know this
Whatever happens next
Is in Your hands, in Your plans
Nothing less
Every day there is a choice
And through the joy
Through the pain
I will rejoice
I am Yours, do what You wish
I am Yours, I am Yours
And I know this

Save me
'Cause I need it
And I can't help but feel desperate
My desires, they seem
Were coming to their endings
But I will trust it's not the end
But a great beginning
