It’s all dying down after midnight
And I’m sat with you
You pour another round
And hand me mine
And all the ghosts of the night
Yeah, they walk by
But we don’t care at all
You’re looking deep my eyes
And I know why
So you dance dance
To your favourite song
The one I hate ‘cause
It reminds me of when you were gone
You only like me when you’re eight drinks down
You only love me when you’re on the ground
You don’t let it show
When you wake up
Forget the tears
Pretend you don’t know
What they’re made of
I wish I could repeat that moment
‘Cause I figured what to say
Cool breath on my cheek
And I’m frozen
So you dance dance
To your favourite song
The one I hate ‘cause
It reminds me of when you were gone
You only like me when you’re eight drinks down
You only love me when you’re on the ground

Silhouettes
03:34
|

Do you remember we were young once
Invisible kids
Chasing cheap thrills in the back of an abandoned car
Rustin road side
A 100 pound sign
That says cash in hand
And all those long nights
All our wasted youth
Not romanticising anything
And we’re just as lost as we were back then
Haven’t figured out anything
And we’re still dancing like
Silhouettes
Fading into the night
Never shining too bright
Fall in love like
Like silhouettes
Under neon lights
Slow dancing until we cry
And now we’re no one and we’re laughing it off
Pretending we forgot
All the promises that we made
To each other on that winter’s night
With the evening’s drawing in
And all those long nights
All our wasted youth
Not romanticising anything
And we’re just as lost as we were back then
Haven’t figured out anything
And we’re still dancing like
Silhouettes
Fading into the night
Never shining too bright
Fall in love like
Like silhouettes
Under neon lights
Slow dancing until we cry
How can I move on
When you’re looking like that
Just pull me in
And take me back
Invisible kids
Stay forever like that
A silhouette
That fades to black
Silhouettes
Fading into the night
Never shining too bright
Fall in love like
Like silhouettes
Under neon lights
Slow dancing until we cry

Love It Like That
03:24
|
|||
We do it every time
And then we feign our surprise
Magnetic forces
Pull our bodies in
And then you push me away
There’s nothing that I can say
But I know next week
We’ll do it all again
Yeah look me in the eyes
Tell me all your little lies
Cuz I love it that
Keep pulling me in
Like a puppet on a string
Cuz I love it like that
Leave me when you’re sober
And keep doing me over
Cuz I love it like that
Push me away
And pull me right back
Cuz I love it like that
I’m like a moth to a flame
The moment I hear your name
You’re dangerous
But I can’t stay away
Cuz you’re miracle pill
You walk on water for thrills
I’m addicted to the
Heaven you create
Lights out
Party’s over
Let’s start out
Pretend I don’t know ya
One last time
Over and over

Headlock
02:44
|

You got my heart in a headlock
Could break it into two
You’re on my mind
And I won’t stop not getting over you
‘Cause I keep dreaming of things
We’ll probably never do
You got my heart in a
You got my heart in a headlock
And I don’t think you know
What you do to everyone who sees ya
Turn every head where you go
Feel all those eyes
Eyes laying on ya
You got my heart in a headlock
Could break it into two
You’re on my mind
And I won’t stop not getting over you
‘Cause I keep dreaming of things
We’ll probably never do
You got my heart in a
You got my heart in a headlock
You got my heart in a
You got my heart in a headlock
You keep reeling me in
Those ocean eyes keep pulling me under
Play me like I’m on a string
So hit me hard
Hit me like thunder
You got my heart in a headlock
Could break it into two
You’re on my mind
And I won’t stop not getting over you
‘Cause I keep dreaming of things
We’ll probably never do
You got my heart in a
You got my heart in a headlock
You got my heart in a
You got my heart in a headlock
You pull me in and I’m holding on, holding on
You push me back and I’m looking right over the edge
ou pull me in and I’m holding on, holding on
You push me back and I’m looking right over the edge
You got my heart in a headlock
Could break it into two
You’re on my mind
And I won’t stop not getting over you
‘Cause I keep dreaming of things
We’ll probably never do
You got my heart in a
You got my heart in a headlock
You got my heart in a
You got my heart in a headlock

Wild Love
03:06
|
|||
A howling wind
Blows through the door
It picks me up and throws me down like love and war
I’m losing blood
You’re closing in
I feel it kicking in
I feel that adrenaline
I wanna slow right down
I wanna get caught up
But I’ve been down this road
It never goes where you think it does
I wanna open up
But I’ve been bruised before
I feel you gaining on me
But I’ll never stop running from your
Wild love
But I’ll never stop running from your
Wild Love
A subtle look
Feel your eyes on me
And I know that I shouldn’t feel it
The smallest touch
Electricity
I feel it racing through my body
I wanna slow right down
I wanna get caught up
But I’ve been down this road
It never goes where you think it does
I wanna open up
But I’ve been bruised before
I feel you gaining on me
But I’ll never stop running from your
Wild love
But I’ll never stop running from your
Wild Love
And I can’t look back
And I can’t slow down
I can feel your breath
On the back of my neck
And I can’t look back
And I can’t slow down
I can feel your breath
On the back of my neck
I wanna slow right down
I wanna get caught up
But I’ve been down this road It never goes where you think it does I wanna open up
But I’ve been bruised before I feel you gaining on me
But I’ll never stop running from your Wild love
But I’ll never stop running from your Wild love

Don't Wanna Kiss You
03:20
|
|||
We’re kissing in a dark room
And that’s not all he’s done to you
With his hands all over your body
You keep on making me guess and I keep racing ahead
Cuz he’s all over you
And I’m alone spilling jack in the spare room
But you say you’d never do
Anything like that
I don’t believe you
I don’t wanna kiss you right now right now
Cuz you smell of cigarettes and your last round
I never wanted to turn you down
But I don’t wanna kiss you right now right now
You say it’s paranoia
But did you like him better?
Cuz your eyes won’t look at me steady
And I would say that we’re dead but
I don’t want it to end
Cuz he’s all over you
And I’m alone spilling jack in the spare room
But you say you’d never do
Anything like that
I don’t believe you
I don’t wanna kiss you right now right now
Cuz you smell of cigarettes and your last round
I never wanted to turn you down
But I don’t wanna kiss you right now right now
Cuz he’s all over you
And I’m alone spilling jack in the spare room
But you say you’d never do
Anything like that
I don’t believe you
I don’t wanna kiss you right now right now
Cuz you smell of cigarettes and your last round
I never wanted to turn you down
But I don’t wanna kiss you right now right now

Hear It Back
03:33
|
|||
I can still hear your voice in my head
I can still feel your love in my heart
I can still feel the strength in my bones
I can still feel the pain of your scars
I can travel down the roads that you’ve been
I can sing all of the songs you used to sing
I can read all the books that you read
Can remember all the words that you said
I can cry every tear that I have
And tell you I love you so that you never forget that
But I can’t have you back
No I can’t have you back
I can hear you on the records you left
Catch your scent on all the shirts that I’ve kept
I can read all of the texts that you sent
I can think about how much you meant
But I’ll never really know what you’d say
On my next birthday or my wedding day
And the jokes that you would tell me when I’m down
Or if I ever really made you proud
I can cry every tear that I have
And tell you I love you so that you never forget that
But I can’t have you back
And I just wanna hear it back
Just wanna hear it back
Just wanna hear it back
Just wanna hear it back
Just wanna hear it back
Just wanna hear it back
Just wanna hear it back

Cheap Imitation
03:36
|
|||
My head’s a mess and I’m tired
And I don’t know what I’m thinking
My friend’s keep asking me out
I know I’ll disappoint them
Cuz I’m so sick of the little white lies
That I tell myself
And I’m trapped behind these eyes
A shell of myself
I feel like I’m a cheap imitation
A ghost in the night
What once was hope has turned to frustration
And paled in the light
I’m so sick of fakin
Cold until I’m shaking
Bend until I’m breaking in two
I feel like I’m a cheap imitation
And I’m so sick of faking
We met your friends in a bar
And they just wouldn’t stop talking
Yeah one of them plays guitar
Says his band’s just been touring
I’m one bad joke from walking straight out
One fake smile away
I don’t care what you do when you’re out
I don’t care what you’re paid
I feel like I’m a cheap imitation
A ghost in the night
What once was hope has turned to frustration
And paled in the light
I’m so sick of fakin
Cold until I’m shaking
Bend until I’m breaking in two
I feel like I’m a cheap imitation
And I’m so sick of faking
Don’t you look at me
You’re like a gun between my head
Who we used to be
I feel like I’m a cheap imitation
A ghost in the night
What once was hope has turned to frustration
And paled in the light
I’m so sick of fakin
Cold until I’m shaking
Bend until I’m breaking in two
I feel like I’m a cheap imitation
And I’m so sick of faking
A cheap imitation
And I’m so sick of faking

Time Zones
03:39
|

Hey, what’s it like there?
How’s the weather?
Did you find yourself again
On a greyhound bus going
Some place with cleaner air
With different faces?
Was there nothing left to see in the place that you left me?
Hey, how was Paris?
Should I go there?
What’s it like in summertime?
How’s the people, how’s the wine?
And hey, did you not like what we had here?
We’s do nothing everyday
And hold back words we wish we’d say
But I’m still
In the same town wondering where you are now
I’m checking time zones hoping that you might phone
And if I weren’t shy maybe I’d be that guy
And oh oh
These time zones
Drinking champagne waiting for your next plane
I’m waking Monday’s wishing it’s the last day
Watching the sunrise as you dance in moonlight
And oh oh
These time zones
And I’m still up at 3am
I’m thinking about how things could’ve been
While you’re getting drunk at 3pm
One new lover and a ton of friends
And I still see your face sometimes
On the southbound tube
On the northern line
And I’m so sick of these time zones
Won’t you come back home?
Where I’m still

Wasted Summer
03:40
|
|||
Another Saturday night
Another evening alone
Another shot in the dark
Another shot on my own
Another thing to regret
Another chance that I blew
Something I won’t forget
And someone I don’t want to
Every weekend
Every moment
Every new heart
You’ve broken
All the things that
I coulda done
If I could
Just move on
And every time I’m wasted
In every lonely spinning room
In every underground station
I’ve wasted every summer on you
In every dream I’m chasing
In every perfect sunset view
When my heart starts racing
I’ve wasted every summer on you
Another vague remark
Another fantasy
Another lie I want
To believe
Another beautiful line
Another witty retort
Another future that starts
And ends in a thought
I’m done
I’m through
I’m sick of falling hard for you
No chance
No cause
My youth’s all yours

World Goes Round
03:37
|
|||
When the streets go dark and the stars don’t seem to shine right
When the sunset don’t seem beautiful anymore
When the best laid plans keep falling apart
When the hole in your chest is an empty heart
One day we’ll be sitting in the sun looking back on this
I’m gonna tell you know
That the world still goes round
Can you feel it now?
If you’re lost
You’ll be found
When you don’t recognise the world your lost in
I’ll be the map that guides you home
When the sun goes down it’ll rise again
And we’ll pull the curtains and let it in
One day we’ll be sitting in the sun looking back on all this
I’m gonna tell you know
That the world still goes round
Can you feel it now?
If you’re lost
You’ll be found
I’m gonna tell you know
That the world still goes round

Sick of Myself
03:17
|
|||
After a few drinks I stare
Deep in my own eyes
And wonder if the same man’s
Underneath those ageing lines
Beneath the cracks and forced laughs
And eyes that I don’t know
The stranger looking back at me
Is a promise that I broke
I’m tired of lying
I’m tired of my head
I’m tired and misread
I’m tired of being
Someone I’m not
I’m a man that I’ve forgot
I’m so sick of myself
Sick of myself
Sick of myself
I’m so sick of myself
Sick of myself
Sick of myself
I don’t know what I’ve left behind
I don’t know where to start
I don’t know which way I can swim
In this deep sea of dark
I’ll try to keep on smiling
Like I’ve trained for years to do
Now I don’t know what I’m hiding
And I don’t know who is who
I’m so sick of myself
Sick of myself
Sick of myself
I’m so sick of myself
Sick of myself
Sick of myself
