Barcelona

One more day down these stairs
His room is cold now and it hurts like hell
He holds tight, he stares
It’s almost over and it’s running through his head
They don’t know me, they don’t know more than I show

She’s walking up to him so slowly
It’s about time, it’s about time to fly away, but wait
This one is different cause she’s lonely
Fold your wings, you’ll need them more one day

One more smile, one more bed
Her eyes are dark now and they hurt like hell
She’s so still, she’s dead
She knows it’s over, she holds her head and says,
They can’t love me, they can’t love what I don’t show

He’s walking up to her so slowly
It’s about time, it’s about time to fly away, but wait
This one is different cause he’s lonely
Fold your wings, you’ll need them more

There’ve been to many times when I’ve drowned you with these perfect lines
And you’ve heard me say that I can cure you
This morning I woke up with this overwhelming fear of love
And I’m not sure if I can resurrect you

I’m walking up to you so slowly
It’s about time, it’s about time to fly away, but wait
I swear it’s different cause I’m lonely
Fold your wings, you’ll need them more one day

You look good, but you don't look great,
She's got you saying things on tape,
You wouldn't tell your best of friends,
You think this cycle never ends.
Until you are old,
It's sad, just how old you are.

If you make it out alright,
If you make it up for air,
I promise you, I won't go.
(I won't leave before)
Before the sun gets to rise,
I'll ask this one more time,
Will you have me in spite of her?

She has told you what she'd bring
You're entertained by lesser things,
You've got to step it up a bit, step it up a bit more,
Until you're sure
There's nothing left inside
To hurt this pretty mind,
Because pretty eyes will see right through you

She'll find out,
She'll break down,
Stop this now

If you make it out alright,
If you make it up for air,
I promise you, I won't go.
(I won't leave before)
Before the sun gets to rise,
I'll ask this one more time,
Will you have me in spite of her?

You're barely breathing,
You're barely breathing,
You're barely breathing, tonight. (X4)

If you make it out alright,
If you make it up for air,
I promise you, I won't go.
(I wont leave before)
Before the sun gets to rise,
I'll ask this one more time,
Will you have me, will you have me?

If you make it out alright,
If you make it up for air,
I promise you, I won't go.
(I won't leave before)
Before the sun gets to rise,
I'll ask this one more time,
Will you have me in spite of her?

This space is tight, I'm running out of air
And for the moment, you all can fit
This frenzied state has almost finished me
And I won't bide my time to see it blow

Driving now against the flow of lights and I can see the fault in every home
They can try to hold to creatures in at night
And My response will be angry fist and teeth

I'll fight you all

We'll tear down this place, she told it to him softly
Don't use your heart, it only makes you slow
I'll tear down this place, I've known it since she told me
Make sure to take everything they have

I'll fight you all
I'll fight you
I'll fight you all (x4)

We'll tear down this place, she told it to him softly
Don't use your heart, it only makes you slow
I'll tear down this place, I've known it since she told me
Make sure to take everything they have

Make sure to take everything they have

I've been led on
To think that we've been
Trying for too long.
Every time we drift
We're forcing what is wrong.
At last that voice is gone.

Please take your time
But you've got to know that
I am taking sight.
Oh, you look good
with your patient face and wandering eye
Don't hold this war inside.

Come back when you can.
Let go, you'll understand.
You've done nothing at all to make me love you less.
So come back when you can.

You left your home
You're so far from
Everything you know
Your big dream is
Crashing down and out your door.
Wake up and dream once more.

Come back when you can.
Let go, you'll understand.
You've done nothing at all to make me love you less.
So come back when you can.

Come back, I'll help you stand.
Let go and hold my hand.
If all you wanted was me, I'd give you nothing less.
So come back when you can

Five days after black and red collide
The motion sickness past, I'll be the first to stand
Behind that weathered door, I thought it would be safest
My head is dizzy now, I thought we'd overcome
We might not make it home tonight

Crawling on the ash, she's pitiful
She lost her sense of light, she has to hold my hand
Had I known we might be two kids without their jackets
My fear would come alive, I wouldn't loathe her now
She might not make home tonight

Get up
Get up
Get up
Get up

(I need you) Get up
Get up
Get up
Get up

Get up
Get up
Get up
Get up

What makes these boys fall hard
Over all the girls they have
fought and won
These kings work hard and long
Just to ensure that
their girls don't run
Oh no nobody taught them
To love slow they're crying out
at the streets below
Why don't you stay with me
I think you could save this beast
But I'll leave you with
an empty look
Honey that's what takers do
I'm a thief and I'll take you
What makes these monsters cry
You can see the gold
reflecting in their eyes
Yea that's just our heaving
skin stretched tight
Greedy hands grab
what feels right
Oh no nobody taught them to let
go they don't know
Why don't you stay with me
I think you could save this beast
But I'll leave you with an
empty look
Honey that's what takers do
I'm a thief and I'll take you
If you stay you would break
Your way to innocence
To take after these
violent ways
You still love and I still take
Stay with me
I think you could save this beast
But I'll leave you
with an empty look
Honey that's what takers do
I'm gonna take you and
you'll stay with me
Well I think you can
save this beast
But I'll leave you with
an empty look
Honey that's what takers do

I've been led on
To think that we've been
Trying for too long.

If you stay, you would break.
Your way to innocence

All 'round this empty space
Baseboards and change with dust
Discard hopeful display once it
aroused the brave in us
Maintain every night
Bodies aching all the time
Things that made me smile
Made me think we'd last
Broken terrible piles
We couldn't know
they'd turn so fast
She drinks red wine every night
Soaking through all the time
Oh Oh god I'm faded out
No more No more straight lines
We shared the very same room
The very same bed with love
Bad night she fell asleep
I flew away and I'll never stop
We cry every night
Words are broken all the time
Oh Oh god I'm faded out
No more No more straight lines
Oh Oh god I'm faded out
No more No more straight lines

Tuesday came and I feigned happy
I'm so lonely here
This thing between my lungs is making me so tired
It's bleeding me

You know me, and how I hate this
We've said enough for now
Although it's been three hours we haven't spoke at all

Oh, inside this empty cabinet,
Nothing shines in here

On the edge of night,
We look down on our streets and houses,
You felt sick so I drove back
And if we go back to stars we won't need any money
We won't need these poor hearts

This crowd incites my riots,
I'll try to calm them down.
Criminals compound my weakness
I'm barley hanging on

They're bleeding me
Oh, why can't I feel it?
Nothing hurts down here.

On the edge of night,
We look down on our streets and houses
You felt sick so I drove back
And if we go back to starts we won't need any money
We won't need these poor hearts

When I woke up, I couldn’t feel my arms
They felt as if they weren’t my own

I don’t remember if I really slept at all
I might have been out building walls

How can I stand and hold up this great wall?
And if it falls then I might blow away
What’s wrong? Can’t he see how hard I’ve tried?
I’m numb inside
I’m done tonight

This morning found me out of action and alone
I’d lost command of all I thought I owned
My friends all called me to make sure I was well
But I never made it to the phone

How can I stand and hold up this great wall?
And if it falls then I might blow away
What’s wrong? Can’t he see how hard I’ve tried?
I’m numb inside
I’m done tonight

All this potential has messed up my whole day
A storm of times and overlapping things
This information has left me overwhelmed
I’ve no idea where I should go

How can I stand and hold up these great walls
And if it falls and I might blow away
What’s wrong? Can’t he see how hard I’ve tried?
I’m numb inside
I’m done tonight

All those arrows you threw, you threw them away
You kept falling in love, then one day
When you fell, you fell towards me
When you crashed in the clouds, you found me

Oh, please don’t go
I want you so
I can’t let go
For I lose control

Get these left handed lovers out of your way
They look hopeful but you, you should not stay
If you want me to break down and give you the keys
I can do that but I can’t let you leave

Oh, please don’t go
I want you so
I can’t let go
For I lose control

Fall, fall out of trees
Into the street
On my own

I finally found out how long I can hang on
I've got this all wrong
My heart is scared, my heart is gone

Now, looking around, there's no one here to hear my fall
White, white as a sheet
I saw a ghost, I think it was me
I've got to get out
Out of this town
It's scary
Sometimes when I sleep
I miss my home, I miss my tree
And now it's up to them to carry me back up to the top

I've got this now
My legs are steady now
The angels warned me never to fall down
