What We Found

Love we could get out
the grays of this town
we never have to know
Abandon our ghosts
to single-bedroom homes
we haunted years ago
‘Cause we are too young
able and unsung
to rest our weary bones
Build ourselves a better life
somewhere far from these old stones
Baby you know time
it’s all we lack
once it’s gone we cannot get it back
Look what we found
this city can’t keep us down city can’t keep us down
and we will do whatever it takes to make it now
this city can’t keep us down city can’t keep us down
Bridges and cold nights
give us the sunlight
oh what a sight to see
it’s just not our type
to settle for this life of sullen apathy
‘Cause we are too young able and unsung
to rest our weary bones
Build ourselves a better life
somewhere far from these old stones
Lover I wonder if I’m enough for you
‘cause we ain’t got nothin’ but home to make it through

Get You Out
03:45

Is there a stranger here in my house?
Who am I right now?
You think I should know a little about you,
darling I let you down
But who are you to come around?
I’ve never found a friend worth keeping
or maybe I have now
Speak like fire when I’m around you
maybe we’ll work it out
I can get better now
Shake it off
we’ll be fine I’m not living without you baby
If I can’t get you can’t get you out
I really think that we’ve got nothing
nothing we should worry ‘bout
take a swing and hit whatever’s around you
maybe we’ll work it out
can we get better now can we get better now?
And if you find it on your own
to shut it all down and mend these broken bones
I guess I should have known should have known
all that you know all that you know.
Shake it off
we’ll be fine I’m not living without you baby
If I can’t get you can’t get you out
And if the rain’s gone to my head
if we slow it down slow it down
If the rain’s gone to my head I can’t get you out

Sound

We’re riding out this apartment life
you keep my heart awake
strong for the fight
I want so badly to run and hide
tell my why you stay here
sewn to my side?
Oh, I think we’re getting close
move another mile and shows
lines on my face from the streets we roam
Is this home ‘cause I don’t think we’ll ever really know
baby we float so sound
I don’t think I’m ever coming down
Is this home ‘cause I don’t think we’ll ever really know
baby we float so sound
I don’t think I’m ever gonna come back down
I think I’m talking in my sleep
spilling my guts away
secrets I keep
Oh I think we’re getting close
move another mile and it shows
lines on my face from the streets we roam
Round the stairs right out of this apartment life

Youth
03:52
|

Look on the bright side
we carry on into the night
sleep through the sunshine
another day but we don’t mind
when we know the world is getting close
with the soles of our shoes
the only thing we own
You and your friends got a hold so tight
blood in my mouth keeps my tongue untied
Take me out take me out
dancing to the streetlight’s sound
our youth is fading now
We hit the pavement
and roll until our bones are spent
and I can’t take it
nothing can keep me in the rhythm of the moment
when I know the end is getting close
with the soles of my shoes the only thing I own
You and your friend got a hold so tight
blood in my mouth keeps my tongue untied
Take me out take me out
dancing to the streetlight’s sound
our youth is fading now

Hold Tight
03:51
|

The lights flash
won’t someone get us to the hospital?
A slow crash
I’m thinking maybe that I lost control
Will we find that this is all we’ll know?
‘Cause I think you and I are nothing more than our chemicals.
To the unknown.
It’s not right,
I told you that I'd never let you down
So hold tight
‘cause come tomorrow we’ll still be around
Will we find that this is all we’ll know?
‘Cause I think you and I are nothing more than our chemicals
To the unknown
but we just can’t let it go
and I think you know
we’ll leave a mark on the way out
Oh, we just can’t let it go
and I think you know
we’ll leave a mark on the way ou.
And we’ll try
but we still take for granted all this time
if there’s a lesson here worth learning I’m sure it already left my mind
If we find that this is all we’ll know
it just don’t matter if we’re nothing more than our chemicals
To the unknown
but we just can’t let it go
and I think you know
we’ll leave a mark on the way out.
Oh, we just can’t let it go
and I think you know
we’ll leave a mark on the way out
It’s a sudden pill to swallow we refuse outright
it’s not our time, this is not our time
