VERSE 1:
No matter how strong I am, nothing ever seems to go just like it’s planned
And I almost die every time
CHORUS:
We, we, we’ve got the wrong idea and we’re trusting all the people
Who we really should have feared
And it’s oh so obvious in hindsight
Set the details out right
But the heat of battle fans the fire in our lives
VERSE 2:
No matter how hard I try situations always seem to catch me on the fly
And I always fight every time to be right
CHORUS 2:
We, we, we are the tidal wave and we’re bring the erosion on a monumental scale
It was oh so obvious in hindsight
Now we’re gonna put right
Anything and everything dismantled in the fight

Finish Line
03:47

VERSE:
Does light hold strong when the darkness comes along?
Do we hold the truth?
Do hands hold hope like a fraying rope?
Do we see some proof?
CHORUS:
Everything will be alright
Everything will work out fine
Don’t you worry, don’t you worry
Don’t you hurry to the finish line
VERSE 2:
Does fire lose heat when we chose to retreat?
Did we lose ourselves?
Like air we can breathe, simple things to believe
Can we find ourselves in time?

VERSE:
We weren’t always friends when we met at first
Trust is hard to mend, gone from bad to worse
CHORUS:
Everyone gets angry, at least from time to time
And sometimes we go crazy and let out what’s inside
But everyone needs everyone to not be eye for eye
Cause in the end we’re only making ourselves blind
VERSE 2:
You and I are friends
You and her are more
Love cannot be bent
It’s an open door
BRIDGE:
You can play with fire but don’t you toy with me
Cause you are my desire, we’re something don’t you see?
But time and trust are things that we require to heal and mend
And time and trust are things that we just cannot learn to bend.
CHORUS 2:
Everyone gets lonely when they’re away from home
And everyone gets homesick when they are on their own
But everyone needs everyone to try and get along
Cause in the end we’re only as weak as we are strong

Water You Waiting For?
06:45
|
|
||
VERSE:
It’s time for resolution
This time we will resolve
There’s no other solution
No sins we can’t absolve
PRE CHORUS:
But you and me, we’re songs without a key
A noteless harmony
Like sour air to breathe
But you and I are we stars without a sky
It’s a long and hard goodbye
But to fail is not to try
VERSE 2:
It’s time for a conclusion
That brings inner most peace
It’s time for resolution
For greatest and the least
CHORUS:
Looking at the ocean, but you are all I see
The gravity that pulls me in and sucks the air from me
Looking to the South Pole, I’m drawn in your breath
I shrug off insecurities and embrace my inner self
Palaces and kingdoms fall but I must rise above
Master all my own desires and protect the ones I love
The ones who pulled me from this grave and met along the way
The path I walk such lonesome miles from here and to the grave
From here into the grave

Been Waiting For
04:57
|
|
||
VERSE:
Holding the hand of things we never speak of
Cold skin on skin, ocean in the background, crashing in the foreground
You looked at me, eyes as blue as clear skies
Deeper than the waves we’re flying over, cliffs resemble Dover
CHORUS:
Is this what I have been waiting for?
Is this what we have been waiting for?
VERSE 2:
I feel unsure, bordering uncertain
Ice cold and hard, hitting like a bison, wonderfully frightened
I look at you, my doubts as plain as daylight
You hold my hand, tell me that’s alright, tell me that it’s all right
BRIDGE:
I need somewhere to belong
I need someone to be strong
I need somewhere to belong
I’ve been waiting for so long
