Phase 04:33
Count the years of wonder Count the years of truth Count the years of happy Count the years of youth Count the steps I’m walking Far away from you Trying not to think about The day it all was through All the steps I’m taking Trying to pretend One foot to the other Waiting for the phase to end I’m just counting passing moments Waiting for the phase to end Count the years of awful Count the years of truth Count the years of happy When I was close to you Count the joyful moments Count them ‘till I cry Inside I’m sill screaming Outside asks the silent why The orbit’s getting larger Makes it hard to see That things are so much harder When you’re not here right next to me But things were so much harder When you were here right next to me The question I keep asking To my long lost friend Are we wasting time Will we ever start to mend All the steps we’re taking Trying to defend Counting passing moments Waiting for the phase to end All the years we’re wasting Yet we still pretend That we don’t love each other We’re waiting for the phase to end And all the time we’re wasting Waiting for the phase to end The space keeps getting colder But I still pretend That I’m not getting older Waiting for the phase to end And time just keeps on passing Waiting for the phase to end

I went down that road To see if it was real I went down that road To see if I still feel Living a life I left behind Looking around To see what I might find Ride that road straight to the bottom Burn those lives while I still got ‘em A wink from her eye A kiss from her lips She thinks she’s fooled me But I know her tricks Springing the trap I know is there Just to show that I know That she’s not fighting fair Ride that road straight to the bottom Burn those lives while I still got ‘em I’m running away from you Running away to chase the storm again Her raging clouds fly high Lightning burning holes through the darkened sky Pedal floored So I can pretend Feeding the demons Waiting at the end Hold on tight It’s a fucked up ride Destroying the structures We built inside Ride that road straight to the bottom Burn those lives while I still got ‘em I’m running away from you Running away to chase the storm again Her raging clouds fly high Lightning burning holes through the darkened sky I went down that road To see if it was real I went down that road To see if I still feel I might find that I was wrong Only to discover I’ve been gone too long Ride that road straight to the bottom Burn those lives while I still got ‘em All roads lead straight to the bottom All roads lead straight to the bottom All roads lead straight to the bottom All roads lead straight to the bottom

Lay your head down Rest your eyes and stay with me tonight I need to feel you close now Come on in my arms are open wide Open your heart So I can crawl in Fill up the space So love can begin The nights we’re together Are better than the rest Light as a feather Your head resting on my chest Close your eyes now Take your hand in mine and hold it tight I can feel you breathing Rise and fall I know that it’s all right Open my heart So you can crawl in Fill up the space So love can begin The nights we’re together Are better than the rest Light as a feather You head resting on my chest I’m lost without you So please never leave The strength that you give me Is making me believe that I can do anything The sky’s turning blue But nevertheless We’re still dreaming And I have to confess The days we’re together Are better than the rest Always light as a feather With your head upon Open our hearts So we can crawl in Fill up the space So love can begin This life that we’re living Is better than the rest Light as a feather Your head resting on my chest I can do anything I can do anything

You get the best of me You get the best of me You get the best of me When you’re under my skin You get the best of me You take the rest of me You take the best of me When you’re under my skin You take the best of me You take the best of me You take the best of me When you’re under my skin You take the best of me You make a mess of me Throw away the rest of me When you’re under my It’s not what you say It’s how you say it that’s making it hard It’s the words that cut deep That are leaving me scarred Denial of your style Is how you play It’s the fuel that feeds the fire Pushing me away You get the best of me You get the best of me You get the best of me When you’re under my skin Strike me blind so I can’t see How you’ve got control of me Forever chipping away at me When you’re under my It’s that venom from your mouth That hurts the most Bitter poison that is spoken While you keep me close Denying your reason To manipulate Is the fuel that feeds the fire Turning love to hate Keep picking Until I bleed I can’t ever seem To give you what you need Always engage A full frontal assault Never feel guilty It’s all my fault Don’t worry it’s all my fault Don’t worry it’s all my fault Don’t worry it’s all my fault Don’t worry it’s all my fault Don’t worry it’s all my fault Don’t worry it’s all my fault Don’t worry it’s all my fault Don’t worry it’s all my fault Don’t worry it’s all my fault

Do it again You said on the first night Whisper a warning Bathing in your light Do it again You said with a kiss Looking through me Is the warning that I miss Full steam ahead Make sure you pretend You don’t already know You know how this will end Pull it close Hold it while it’s there I know that you’re running But I don’t know where Do it again Stand up tall And fight the good fight Standing on the side Will never make things right Do it again Full steam ahead Make sure you pretend You don’t already know You know how this will end If it’s too good to be true Rough times are ahead I know what I heard And I know what you said No matter the feelings Swimming in my head I know it won’t grow ‘Cause it’s already dead If it ain’t growin’ It’s already dead If it ain’t growin’ It’s already dead Do it again I already know Full steam ahead
