This is where our kiss went down
Where you broke your mind and I lost my crown
Did it happen or did I just want it to
I look hard where you stood and I crawled
I lean in but I see nothing at all
Did It happen or did I just want it to
Cause I don’t see you in my house ( I don’t see you around here)
But I see you in my head (I don’t see you)
I swear your taste is in my mouth (your taste)
But I don’t see you in my bed (I don’t see you)
Dropped off from the face of the earth
Is this what our love is worth
Did it even happen or did I just want it to
Cause I don’t see you in my house ( I don’t see you around here)
But I see you in my head (I don’t see you)
I swear your taste is in my mouth (your taste)
But I don’t see you in my bed (I don’t see you)
I won’t believe I can’t have you ever, no never again
But reality is creeping the further, the further I bend
I won’t believe I can’t have you ever, no never again
But reality is creeping the further, the further out
Cause I don’t see you in my house ( I don’t see you around here)
But I see you in my head (I don’t see you)
I swear your taste is in my mouth (your taste)
But I don’t see you in my bed (I don’t see you)
I don’t see you around here
I don’t see you around here
I don’t see you around here

Holding Breath

She was holding her breath for what seemed like hours
You were holding your tongue
You were making a mess as her body cowered
You’re a hole in her lung
Save her, save her
With whatever love you have left
And save her, save her,
With whatever love you have left
You were holding your stare
Kept it close and constant
You’re a fortunate one
Exploding to death waking up her conscience
You’re a sawn off shot gun
Save her, save her
With whatever love you have left
And save her, save her,
With whatever love you have left
Exploding to death waking up her conscience
You’re a sawn off shot gun
Save her, save her
With whatever love you have left
And save her, save her,
With whatever love you have left
With whatever love, whatever love

Invitation

Strike the match or I am striking you out
Cash the cheque you know my body can count
I need some time but you will know when I arrive
So I wouldn’t leave the motor running in the drive
Hold me now or forever hold your peace
Take me now or baby take to your knees
pull me in out of pure desperation
I don’t want to live in any hesitation
I fight the need to be alone
So I invite you to take me home
I know I can be better than this
Still I want you to take me home
Push the clock until the numbers fall down
Hold the hands so they’re not making a sound
Suddenly everything that keeps my mind awake
Will melt away when I am taken to that place
I fight the need to be alone
So I invite you to take me home
I know I can be better than this
Still I want you to take me home
They say nothing lasts forever
But my head is full of endless chatter
Constantly talking about how I don’t need anyone
Yet reminding me that all I need is love
I fight the need to be alone
So I invite you to take me home
I know I can be better than this
Still I want you to take me home

For The Best

It was cold in the middle
The middle of your street
Where you left me to stand
With nothing on my feet
It was warm in the middle
The middle of your chest
But I wont know that warmth anymore
And it’s for the best
it’s for the best
I was lost in the river
The river of your veins
You would hold on to all of me
And I’d die again
Now I’m lost in the shiver
Whenever you’re around
Your kiss goes past my lips and to my cheek
And it’s for the best
it’s for the best
But I won’t get over
Won’t get over you
No I won’t get over
Won’t get over you
And it’s for the best
it’s for the best
And it’s for the best
it’s for the best
Now your hands are on the wheel
And for the last time
I watch the lights change colour in your eyes
And know you’re mine
I’m not sure how I feel
About letting this go
But maybe I wont hurt you anymore
