Альбом The Whitest Boy Alive

Can you keep a secret?
Honestly, no?
If I know a good story,
that bubbles out of me,
like weeds from the ground.

Can you keep a secret?
Ok I will try.
But sooner or later,
the vulcanus crater,
will erupt again.

Erupt, erupt, erupt again.
Erupt, erupt, erupt again.

I can't keep it inside.

Can you keep a secret?
What choice do I have?
The door that you've opened,
the seal that you've broken,
you cannot shut now.

Can you keep a secret?
Well, why do you ask?
It's clear from the gallery,
you're dying to tell me,
what's been going on.

You can't keep it inside.
You can't keep it inside.
You can't keep it inside.

Announcing your intentions
Easier said than done
Announcing your intentions
It's easier said than done

But it's better to say nothing
Than say something wrong
When you only want someone
When that someone is gone

Announcing your intentions
It's easier said than done

Hey you can ... me
Don't let that be a reason not to stay
Hey you can ... me
Don't let that be a reason to run away

Announcing your intentions
It's easier said than done

Having said what I needed to
And shown what I feel for you
My intentions are on the table
Now it's time for you to do the same
But no love can be guaranteed
It don't come with no warranties
It's a leap that you have to make
It's a risk we all must take

Well it's clear we're the cutting line
Walk out deep for the longest time
But i can't offer any help
You must do this all by yourself

And no love can be guaranteed
It don't come with no warranties
So wake up or wake up alone

It's better that i believe
That it's over
Waiting every day for a line
For a sign from you
It's a rollercoaster ride of emotions
Paralysing me
Paralysing me

It's better that we build on the dreams
In our own world
The bridge between the two
That could never hold our weight
That could never hold our weight
That could never hold our weight

I keep an open mind, but only till the bottle stops to spin.
And there is only one directional state that I am in.
High on the heels of an opening door, you run out.
Battered and bruised, strangely relieved, you run in.

You said life it still worth living.
Girl, you you don't seem so sure.
You only need to be more certain what it is you're living for.
Climbing the hill of pursuing the front runner's tail.
Lower the bar to a point you can't possibly fail.

Hey, you, we just got started
You can't end this now
Hey, you, we just got started
You can't end this now
You've payed your dues, you're free
Of what are you afraid?
You've payed your dues, you're free
Of what are you afraid?

Taking on responsibility knowing it will way you down...
Freedom is a possibility only if you're able to say no

People in northern Europe since medieval times
We find it hard to deal with when our dreams come true
As it happens in success in the world that afflicts the mount
And if you feel up, somebody somewhere else feels down

Taking on responsibility knowing it will way you down...
Freedom is a possibility only if you're able to say no
Taking on responsibility knowing it will way you down...
Freedom is a possibility only if you're able to say no

It's all fun
Fun and games until
Somebody sees what they should not see
The innocence is killed

Not written, certainly not shown
But eventually
What's meant to be covered up
Gets sold

You only want to be with her because she's mine
You will lose me as a friend if you cross that line
She's the gravity my life circles around
She's the gravity
My life circles around

But how long can a cool cat keep its calm
Despite the amounting evidence that there's cause for alarm
Cause for worry
Cause for pain
Physically threatening the response is alien

You only want to be with her because she's mine
(You're wrong)
You will lose me as a friend if you cross that line
(So long)
She's the gravity my life circles around
(Move on)
She's the gravity
My life circles around

No need to fight about it,
No need to shout about it,
I'm sick and tired too.
I spend the hours searching
For better ways of working.
It's him and me and you.
So often taking your side,
So often slacking your line,
Hoping that you will grow.
Then get yourself together.
But it was now or never,
Already long ago.

Luck is a gift, but rarely only a random thing.
It's not enough to sit down and wait for a phone to ring.

A year a go somebody
Was here and now they tell me
Our issues were the same.
Whereas I've recently been,
We keep on keeping you in.
Nothing will ever change.
You must have heard it humming,
You must have seen it coming.
Your back had shown the belt.
Did you just never notice?
You know what high or low is,
You brought this on yourself.

Luck is a gift, but rarely only a random thing.
It's not enough to sit down and wait for a phone to ring.

Don't turn around, keep going
If I do look back, I'll never get over you
Any ounces of doubt, don't show them
In this ancient game we're playing, it's never lose.

Why did it fail? For what reason?
How many times, and whom must I ask to know?
Just a long way around or a dead end?
Bound for a place I could only reach alone

When I got back along my road,
All the trees had come out the screen.
Nobody called for many days.
I was left in my little world.
Lived through the smell of painted floors,
Echoing the sound.
Off running water through the pipes,
And posters falling down.

When I woke up the second day,
All the noises have disappeared.
Down the street I chose a path,
And walked to the end of it.
Of all the words you sent to me,
There was one that I couldn't bear.
One that for me meant everything,
I think you got mixed up with care,
Taking care, taking care.
Live on the island.
Live on the island.
Live on the island.
Live on the island.
