Feel the colors coming back Into a world that's white and black A ticket in my hand will take me anywhere Anywhere with you my dear Oh I dream of us on islands Never fear the sound of violence But we gotta leave before the morning comes Hurry cause the sun is rising soon I can't sleep, misbehave with me I'll misbehave with the future you You... As we race against this sky I'm letting you steer, I close my eyes You'll keep me safe, you'll make the grey Grow distant, fade away Covered up with lights and lust I never fear, in you I trust But we gotta leave before the morning comes Hurry cause the sun is rising soon I can't sleep, misbehave with me I'll misbehave with the future you You...

Got this shit from Hong Kong You won't find one in L.A. Don't ask me for the details Can't remember anyway Next time I'm in Tokyo Gonna find one if I can Seems like I spend all my life searching Maybe I could make one up instead I know what you are I know what you got I know what you are You'll make it till you fake it I know what you got But what what you need we got more! We are not in over our heads We are inside them We are inside Yes we are inside them We are not in over our heads We are inside them We are inside It's not a destination But what we got along the way Not like instant gratification Cuz we don't need that anyway Next time I'm in Tokyo Gonna find one if I can Seems like I spend all my life searchin Maybe I could make one up instead I know what you are I know what you got I know what you are You'll make it till you fake it I know what you got But what what you need we got more! We are not in over our heads We are inside them We are inside Yes we are inside them We are not in over our heads We are inside them We are inside

Vocode You 04:46
I look at you and I wonder why You couldn't be steady easy free Like this kick drum even if the chords change Oh I don't wanna do a solo I just wanna be John and Yoko Kissing on the cover of that record Cause without you I'm talking to myself again Then I vocode my words and pretend it's you And I turn blue and this is what I hear Can you hear me? Listen closely Promise me that you'll try to understand I wanna love you God I love you I wanna love you but I have to go away I wake up cold in the middle of the night I lost my cool, I think you knew Said "I need love" then started crying in your bed How could you leave with pieces of me? I just wanted to be your honey Why did you pour salt in my sugar Cause without you I'm talking to myself again Then I vocode my words and pretend it's you And I turn blue and this is what I hear [chorus] Everything we wanted I know I let you down... [chorus] I have to go away...

Young Love 03:52
The way you make my heart race When your blue eyes gaze on my young face And I can't breathe but it's okay Cause I just can't fight the feeling It lingers on and on Even when the evenings gone In the morning I'm still high above, in Young love Maybe I still believe In always Through darker day I tried, but I can't stop thinking of you Nothing I feel is ordinary No, this is strong Every word you don't say In the spaces we belong I've come so far, I'm home Even when the evenings gone In the morning I'm still high above And the years just feel like days.. Young Love Maybe I still believe In always Through darker days I tried, but I can't stop thinking of you

With You 03:53
I could feel it kick in When I saw you I knew We exchanged our stories in a crowded room And as you pulled me close I was trying to keep cool Running faster than we should But it's okay cause I feel safe with you What do I do? I'm in love with you And I feel like fool Cause you're gone Our hearts beat in sync and it's all I want What can I say? I can't live this way Cause I keep thinking this could be right Especially when I'm alone at night And if you listen to Slayer I'll learn to love you for it It's euphoric Don't need thunder The lightning will stick And I'll stay And we'll never be the same Running faster than we should It's okay cause I feel safe with you What do I do? I'm in love with you And I feel like fool Cause you're gone Our hearts beat in sync and it's all I want What can I say? I can't live this way Cause I keep thinking this could be right Especially when I'm alone at night

I'm not one of those girls with man after man I could never fall in love that many times Twice to be exact Not likely to happen again for a while I'd always rush over right after work I could never get to you fast enough You'd welcome me in And we'd quickly begin playing records and such On those nights it was simple and it was sweet We were all about telling stories Talking about futures and dreams And it just so happened that you were both for me You understood them all, oh you did Remember that party When somehow every single wine glass was broken? I helped you clean up Gathered my stuff and said I must be getting home You ran after me like there was something you needed Then you kissed me I wanted to stay, but I floated away And knew that so much remained On those nights it was simple and it was sweet We were all about telling stories Talking about the future and dreams And it just so happened that you were both for me You understood them all, oh you did Sometimes I catch myself staring across the street Thinking about my favorite stories Hitting play and then repeat And it just so happens that you were everything
