Sleeping Safe & Sound 03:33
lyrics

I'm scared of them I'm scared of all the monsters come to steal me away For things I say I'm scared of you You've always been the reason I act like I do Now I can't sleep like I used to Well I don't wanna talk about it Leave me be Leave me be And I'll soon forget about it Drift away Fast asleep In a world of my own I'll take you in I'll take you home And then we'll raid the soft parade Go out for tea and still get paid I gotta wonder Gotta wonder what they did with me and mine While I was under Suppose it doesn't matter Don't need another sign to show me it's all over Now just kindly gain composure Well I don't wanna talk about it Leave me be Leave me be And I'll soon forget about it Drift away Fast asleep In a world of my own I'll take you in I'll take you home And then we'll raid the soft parade Go out for tea and still get paid So much for simple bubblegum I guess my paranoid side won He wants to turn us back to dust Says that he's allergic to us But lay your arms down He's got time to come around And if he doesn't we'll still sleep safe & sound

I've Managed 04:22
lyrics

I'm the one who made you I'm the one who set you free I'm the one who saved you You owe all you are to me But now I've managed to get on the other side Just like I wanted to At least I thought it was true We could've been immortal Pick-pocket lives from the side of the golden road Worn with pride of war-torn souls And all forever'd be retired prose from days grown old But now I've managed to get on the other side Just like I wanted to And now I hope to collide with you I hate to say it, but I really do You can't afford it, can't afford to leave me baby You can't afford it, can't afford to leave now baby You can't afford it. But now I've managed to get on the other side Just like I wanted to Not everyone's like you Tell me a story of when we were human Dealing in dreaming Part time to pretend We'd watch our rulers Ruin all that was sacred Picked up and shoved off Raised hell like nothing Still not convinced of Intrinsic good though Watch as we work with What has withstood If it sounds evil Know that it isn't I watched it happen She made the indent

Emma Who 04:49
lyrics
buy track
You can't even smile anymore Cause all the petals just blew up in your eyes Maybe water a rose in the sore And make believe that there's a reason to rise The situation it calls for a care Yet you've buried them with stones beneath the stairs Well how hard can it be to be fair After all lies and coffee start your day Reach me by appointment only And there are somedays when I'm out But I'm bound to come times I'll come looking for you When the bottles all but empty I'll convince myself to make a run on the night It's what I do for people like you, Emma who Those thick brimmed glasses you wear indicate Your insecurities with issues like love Let's talk about where you get these ideas You don't believe in when push comes to shove Tell me what do you see That's good, good, good to see we're making progress Very interesting I feel as if we're tapping into something deep Now how do we meet back in the middle After a year smearing the surface Recreating the maps from our memories Dying to try out our instincts Like we never ever have And it makes me think But it really makes me laugh You overflow with the will to do good Yet those demon seeds you've sewn reap what would Become bountiful buds that break off To form the bulk of what you call understood

Something in the Air 03:13
lyrics
buy track
There's something in the air tonight Can't put my finger on it There's something in the air tonight Be damned if I ain't gonna find it It'll take a little luck Couple phone calls We're gonna get to the bottom of it once and for all. I feel it in the air tonight And it don't feel right to me I gotta be on edge tonight Most wouldn't understand it It can come at any minute Custom fitted for my eyes And then it leaves you stranded Pay attention when it's here Because before long We're gonna write the words that have written all of these years I feel it in the air tonight And it don't feel right to me I've got a problem expecting gifts from all but a stranger If there's a God, well He'd better holler over my shoulder 'Cause I can't hear one, thought I've been listening quite intently I'll fade away now with hopes and doubts that he'll come and find me And make me happy If ever he finds out There's something in the air tonight Can't put my finger on it There's something in the air tonight Be damned if I ain't gonna find it It'll take a little luck Couple phone calls We're gonna get to the bottom of it once and for all. I feel it in the air tonight And it don't feel right
