This love is exhausting
Weren't you raised by children like me?
Your touch always haunts me
Warmth cannot come from the sea
Dealing with your tides
Living double lives
So you don't erupt
Stick your steely knives from 1985
So why don't you give up?
And let the Sun come up
So why don’t you give up?
And let the Sun come up
Oh, how the past deceives you
And how I have received you
I just want to breathe
Darling you don't need to
Keep the things that bleed you close
So why don't you give up?
And let the Sun come up
So why don't you give up?
And let the Sun come up
Give it up, give it up
Give it up, give it up
Come on up, come on up
Come on up, come on up
Give it up, give it up
Give it up, give it up
Come on up, come on up
Come on up, come on up

I apologise
For being so indecisive
Something don't feel right
It seems I’m in a crisis, yeah
Cos when I think of you I get goosebumps
But something in my mind’s ringing alarms
Is this hole in me really the shape of you?
Would you believe that I’m in love with
Everything that you do
Would you believe that I’m in love with
Your image, your scent, and your mood
But I conclude
My senses are crude
And I conclude
My heart is just blue
I long for love forever new
Darling would you mind
If I keep you a daydream
Repeating as a lie
In my bed that’s been empty
Cos when I think of love I get sick now
All I need is reasonable doubt
I don’t think my heart is telling me the truth
Would you believe that I’m in love with
Everything that you do
Would you believe that I’m in love with
Your image, your scent, and your mood
But I conclude
My senses are crude
And I conclude
My heart is just blue
I long for love forever new

Nothing makes sense in this world
And nobody seems to care
As far as I can tell
But as I start losing my mind
She holds me with warmth and says
She’s lost as well
So baby, don’t let go (Baby, don’t let go)
Don’t face this on your own (Face this on your own)
Let’s never be alone
Be alone
Hariye jeyo na
Amar Jaan, Amar Jaan
Shomoi jeno kate na
Amar Jaan, Amar Jaan
Nothing makes sense in this world
But as long as I got my girl
You can all go to hell
She’s both neurotic and kind
I melt in time every time she smiles, I can tell
That this is more than love (This is more than love)
That this is more than trust (This is more than trust)
This is more than love
More than love
Hariye jeyo na
Amar Jaan, Amar Jaan
Shomoi jeno kate na
Amar Jaan, Amar Jaan
Hariye jeyo na
Amar Jaan, Amar Jaan
Shomoi jeno kate na
Amar Jaan, Amar Jaan

Keep
04:47

Figures of your hips
Sway in my memory
I could just take a bite
The smell of your lips
Arms on your collar
Been a while since that night
But she’s not mine to keep
I fall in deep
Baby I fall in deep
But stay on your two feet
Heat from my body
Radiates freely
Into the empty night
Need validation
A sign from the heavens
Tell me I’m worth your time
But she’s not mine to keep
But I fall in deep
Baby I fall in deep
She’s not mine to keep
But I’ve fallen deep
And I can’t retreat
So stay on your two feet
So stay on your two feet
Baby, baby baby

Oh, Michelle, Michelle
Why’d you leave me so lonely
I thought I was your only
Your only
Oh, Michelle, Michelle
Something’s eating my heart out
Memories don’t seem to spark now
Spark now
Every song seems to bring me back
To a time that I never had
Oh, Lord
Craving just a little more
Baby, why does time move so slow?
Well maybe I should try to let you go
But these fleeting smells and sounds keep me down low
Down low
Oh, Michelle, Michelle
Did I bore you to death, my love?
Is that why you broke my trust?
No fuss
I could tell, could tell
Something was troubling your mind
Answers in you I could not find
Heaven knows I tried, tried, tried
I feel like an empty vase
Yet this smell I cannot retrace
Oh, Lord
Craving just a little more
Baby, why does time move so slow?
Well maybe I should try to let you go
But these fleeting smells and sounds keep me down low
Down low

Air

When she smiles blood runs wild
Cos it makes my heart bleed
Cos she can’t help but suffocate
So I need to be the air she breathes
Can’t let go, she’s lost all hope
I hold her close and I look
Into her eyes, my mind dives
Deep into the sea
As she drowns me alive
There’s no place that I’d rather be
And I’m trying my love
And I’m trying my love
To erase your memory
And I’m trying my dear
To not be so near
But I guess I’d rather bleed
It just may be that she’s right
And man is hollow
And time is a dream
But in this nihilism
We find masochism
With her, I embrace the absurd
I’ve got my life ahead of me and I’m
I’m not scared to death
But I’m sick and tired of being unheard
Won't let go
Who needs hope
I hold her close
And I look
Into her eyes, my mind dives
Deep into the sea
As she drowns me alive
There’s no place that I’d rather be
And I’m trying my love
And I’m trying my love
To erase your memory
And I’m trying my dear
To not be so near
But I guess I’d rather bleed

Again

I'm never one to forget
All the things that I’ve read
All the faith that you bred
I can’t help but I feel so damn depressed
When the house overflows
When the garden won’t grow
When you can’t use your gold
I just need someone to hold
People don’t always work
Open hearts often hurt
So I
Pull down the sleeves on my shirt
And there’s only one more thing that I have
Plug the cable and set
The amp and Squier on my bed
Feel the rush in my head
As I play the music
Fills the room with warmth (I feel it)
Makes here feel so strong (I feel it)
Find my faith in song (I feel it)
Feel the rhythm and I sway
I sway
Everything starts to move (I feel it)
To the sound of my own groove (I feel it)
All my stress is soothed (I feel it)
For a moment I think
If all there is to life is suffering and surprise
I’ve found a reason to strive for another moment
And I fall in love all over again
I’m aware of the fact that my pain is intact
I don't wish to relieve
Any truth with an ill-conceived belief
Soon the rush will fade
But I won’t be afraid
To try once again
To make sense of meaning
I am just floating by (I feel it)
Might as well dance and cry (I feel it)
Loneliness won't decide (I feel it)
All my history
I'm awake
For a moment I'm awake
If for modernity's sake (I feel it)
I've stripped myself of all faith (I feel it)
This groove is how I relate (I feel it)
Myself to all that is beauty
If all there is to life
Is suffering and surprise
I've found a reason to strive for another moment
And I fall in love, all over again
And I fall in love, all over again
My love
Again, my love
Again
Again, my love
Again, my love
Again (x5)
