Waiting
04:58

I've been waiting
For nothing
Not expecting
Anything
Then you came
Told me something
I said nothing
You said everything
(ha-aaaaaah)
Then you went
Away for good
I kept waiting
Then I understood
I don't know what to do
How could I fall for you?
I can't believe it's true
Time moves so fast when you
Don't care
I've been working
For a better way
Without you
'Cos I'm here to stay
(ha-aaaaaah)
I don't know what to do
How could I fall for you?
I can't believe it's true
Time moves so fast when you
Don't care

Can't Get Away
03:03
|

|
No one knows where I've been
Avoiding all the crowds
Driving along the highway
Away from the fear and doubt
But I can't get away
No, I can't get a break
No one knows what you've done
They're talking up way too loud
You made another mark now
To drown out all the sound
But you can't get away
No, you can't get a break
I don't wanna stay
But I can't get away
(Break)
Tell yourself it's fine now as you're shaking through your hands
Tell yourself it's fine now when you never had a chance
No one really cares as much as you do in your head
No one really cares as much as you do in your bed

Body Aches
04:54

Body aches
Is my mind awake?
Do I feel ok?
Or is it just the same?
No one knows
How I've grown
To be so cruel
And such a fool
Blood in the water, I can't see
You threw the glass at my feet
But I can't feel anything
No, I can't feel anything
(ha-aaaah)
Cold night
Sleep tight
Dream right
Before it dies
Blood in the water, I can't see
You threw the glass at my feet
But I can't feel anything
No, I can't feel anything
I can't feel anything...

I grew out my hair
Tangling everywhere
You worked hard
To be a star
And I watched you
Make every right move
I don't why it's so cold outside
You made me cry on the phone last night
I don't why it's so cold outside
I blinked an eye and then 5 years went by
You walked by
And I said 'hi',
But I was too quiet
Left me dry
I don't want
To be the one
To blame, but I
Will take it anyway
I don't why it's so cold outside
You made me cry on the screen last night
I blinked an eye and then 5 years went by
I blinked an eye and then you went by
I don't why it's so cold outside
You made me cry on the screen last night
I blinked an eye and then 5 years went by
I blinked an eye and then you went by
You went by
You went by

Timid Moves
04:06
|
|||
|
Taking
all the
time in the world
To find
that I'm
just a silly girl
I don't want you to go
But I just want to be alone
Disappointed
in everything I do
Nothing
will change
unless I make a move
I don't want you to go
But I just want to be alone

Young Days, Old Nights
03:08
|
|||
|
Young days, old nights
I don't feel right
Sleepless car ride
Blinding headlights
But I'm still loveless
And nothing changes
What do I keep doing wrong?
Been here at it way too long?
What do I keep doing wrong?
The more I push, the more it's gone
Lost days, late nights
I don't feel right
If I could hold time
Would I be alright?

On My Back
03:49
|
|||
|
All those years
All those years
I can't get back
I can't get back
All my fears
All my fears
I can't push back
I can't push back
Should I give in?
Could I give in?
Can I begin to cleanse my sins?
On my back
A field of black
Don't look now
Leave somehow
Should I give in?
Could I give in?
Can I begin to cleanse my sins?

Fading
04:31
|
|||
|
Lying
To myself
If I could find
A way out
Ever wrong
Never right
I don't want
To put up a fight
Why does it feel like I'm fading?
Like I could just let go
Of all the voices shouting
Should have just stayed home
Lying
To myself
If I could be
Someone else
Why does it feel like I'm fading?
Like I could just let go
Of all the voices shouting
Should have just stayed home
