[Verse 1]
Uh ohh
Now I stared at you
From across the room
Until both my eyes were faded
I was in a rush
I was out of luck
Now I'm so glad that I waited
Well you were almost there
Almost mine... yeah
They say love ain't fair
But I'm doing fine...

[Chorus]
Cause i swear it’s you
I swear it’s you
I swear it’s you that I’ve waited for
I swear it’s you
I swear it’s you
I swear it’s you that my heart beats for
And it isn’t gonna stop
No it just won’t stop
Uh oh oh
Yeah

[Verse 2]
Now you were fine by night
But when the morning light comes
Comfortable as rain on Sunday
And I’m a lucky soul
That holds your hand so tight
Hope you hear this one day
Don’t fool yourself
This is my truth

[Chorus]
I swear it’s you
I swear it’s you
I swear it’s you that i waited for
I swear it’s you
I swear it’s you
I swear it’s you that my heart beats for
And it ain’t gonna stop
It just won’t stop

[Interlude]
You take this hand
You take this heart
Steal my bones
From 1000 miles apart
Feels so cold
Felt just like its ten shades of winter
And i need the sun
Ohh yeahh
Oh oh no no yeah yeah

[Chorus]
And i swear it’s you
I swear you
I swear it's you that it waited for
I swear it’s you
I swear its
I swear it’s you that my heart beats for
I swear it’s you
I swear it’s you
I swear it’s you that I’ve waited for
I swear it's you
I swear it's you
I swear it’s you that my heart beats for
And it ain’t gonna stop
It just won’t stop
Heyy yeahh
It just won’t stop
No no no no woahh yeah
I swear it’s you
I swear it’s you
Ohh yeah

I found verity on Nolan's Avenue
Down where the air is thick as L.A. skies are blue
The water tried to break it down but it held through
It gave a little for the sake of staying true

We cut ties, we tell lies, we hate change
And we wanna claim where we feel
We take toes, we rake yours, yeah, we dig holes
And we're digging right in your fears

We're waking up, we're waking up
And right on time, and right on time
We'll take these roads, we'll break them up
And right on time, and right on time

We got cars, we write laws, we won't pause
Don't you know we're always working this hard?
We don't lose, we might bruise, yeah
But we'll rain fire on you till you're playing all of your cards

We're waking up, we're waking up
And right on time, and right on time
We'll take these roads, we'll break them up
And right on time, and right on time

On time, right on time
Waking up, waking up, yeah
Ooh, oh, ooh

Watching myself when I'm taking strides but here comes the moon and it feels and it feels like an informer quick run away hide before they see you, you know it is all, all a glow Walking on water seems parlays now you got my trust and it feels, and it feels like sabotage when I'm pulling triggers back on myself you know it is all I know, is all I know And it feels so real from the outside looking in And it feels so real from the outside From the outtttt From the outtt tyrant Tyrant tyranttt Feel capable of most anything this crippled bears gonna sing gonna bring you all the years is quick turn around look your shadows could could not beautiful lies for you is what they do .. And it feels so real from the outside looking in And it feels so real from the outside From the outtttt From the outtt tyrant Tyrant tyranttt I'll stay with apathy im blind but I can see the tyrant to the bone I'll stay with apathy im blind but I can see Don't justify me Don't justify me Don't justify meeeeeee No nononononon And it feels so real from the outside looking in And it feels so real from the outside From the outtttt And it feels so real from the outside looking in And it feels so real from the outside From the outtttt Tyrant tyrant tyrant oooo ooo ooo

You say you're a minute from the deep end
They cut cold the courtesy, its sink or swim now
And your body's aching for a breath, I'll give it to ya
With a trapt door to take care of all of them

Come away, come away now
You won't stand from afar
When you hear me sayin
Come away, come away now
Cause you're too close for me to call

I've seen the foolish shame the wise
You just kept quiet with his own surprises
And your Trojan horse is big enough to save them all
And you're not a foolish one at all

Come away, come away now
You won't stand from afar
When you hear me sayin
Come away, come away now
Cause you're too close for me to call

Lost to found, do you know
You're the victim of?

Kick-slide your pose, let it go
You don't need them
Only flesh, blood, and bones

We're the same, you and I
Far too young to die

Come away, come away now
You won't stand from afar
When you hear me sayin
Come away, come away now
Cause you're too close for me to call

Push and pull me closer
Habit forming, you should stay far away

Colored caffeine, magic
Lights my night im aware of my face, too late

After all is said and done,
i am not the one,
i am not the one.

After all is said and done,
you are still the one,
you are still the one.

(oohhh)

Perfect measured pieces,
fit together you and i,
hey bright eyes.

Dont deny my weakness,
your the jaded,
im the strength right behind you
Behind you

After all is said and done,
i am not the one,
i am not the one.

After all is said and done,
you are still the one,
you are still the one.

(oooh, ooh)
(whoaaa-a-a-a, oohh, ohh oh oh)

After all is said and done,
i am not the one,
i am not the one.

After all is said and done,
you are still the one,
you are still the one.

(oohhh, oh oh oh. oooo, ooooo)

(oohhh, oh oh oh.. ooo,ooo)

This town is colder now, I think it's sick of us
It's time to make our move, I'm shakin off the rust
I've got my heart set on anywhere but here
I'm staring down myself, counting up the years
Steady hands, just take the wheel...
And every glance is killing me
Time to make one last appeal... for the life I lead
Stop and stare
I think I'm moving but I go nowhere
Yeah I know that everyone gets scared
But I've become what I can't be, oh
Stop and stare
You start to wonder why you're 'here' not there
And you'd give anything to get what's fair
But fair ain't what you really need
Oh, can u see what I see
They're tryin to come back, all my senses push
Un-tie the weight bags, I never thought I could...
Steady feet, don't fail me now
Gonna run till you can't walk
But something pulls my focus out
And I'm standing down...
Stop and stare
I think I'm moving but I go nowhere
Yeah I know that everyone gets scared
But I've become what I can't be, oh
Stop and stare

But I've become what I can't be
Oh, do u see what I see...

Come, come, my dear
Take flight, come near
I see your fear creeping around you
First love, then hate, then love, no, wait
Your confusion, it's gonna kill me
I broke for you, I woke for you
You taught me through, God love you,
I see the signs are out of line
No fault of mine
Except for don't say his name now

I'm breaking out, something ain't right here
You're falling out something ain't here

The scream, I burn
What's that, you say
Your cloud it's telling you lies now
You hear my voice,
You make some noise
You stole my choice
It's over now
Pray for him now
I speak to you

I'm breaking out, something ain't right here
You're falling out, something ain't right here
I'm breaking out, something ain't right here
You're falling out, falling out from, falling out, you're falling out
Why can't you see it?

Oooooooooh

I'll pray for you now
I'm speaking to you

Patience Took you for everything Looked like a diamond ring You are so much longer That made sense Apathy in disguise Crept on you like a spy Hurt you in ways You can't describe Bridge Back to the start now I wont let you go this way now Chorus Honesty Is what you need It sets you free Like someone to save you Let it go But hurry now Theres undertow And I don't want to lose you now All right Sit down and spill your heart Lets start from the very start Cause i can see by your eyes You're wasted Your energy comes and goes You taking your time, you know Nothing can change what happened, you know Bridge Chorus Now Now Oh my Look at your bright stars fade so How much can you take? Chorus Na Na Na Na Na Na Na (x14) I said to save you Save you Save you Someone to save you What you need is Someone to save you

Talk to myself again, all alone, on my own
Walk by the scene again, just to see what people see
Caught in your stubborn hold, and I'm so far from home

So turn the lights on, turn the lights on
Turn the lights on for me
Keep the lights on, keep the lights on
Keep the lights on for me

Don't go to sleep

Lost in your thoughts again, consciously you think of me
Focus your perfect words with a pen you write me in
I can't be reached, so far from here, I need you near

So turn the lights on, turn the lights on


Turn the lights on for me
So keep the lights on, keep the lights on
Keep the lights on for me

Don't go to sleep

I wait for you, I stay for you

So turn the lights on, turn the lights on
Turn the lights on for me
So keep the lights on, keep the lights on
Keep the lights on for me

Don't go to sleep

I wait for you, I stay for you

In violent times
You shouldn't have to sell your soul
In black and white
They really, really ought to know
Those one track minds
That took you for a working boy
Kiss them goodbye
You shouldn't have to jump for joy
You shouldn't have to shout

Shout, shout, let it all out
These are the things I can do without
Come on, I'm talking to you, come on

Shout, shout, let it all out
These are the things I can do without
Come on, I'm talking to you, come on

In violent times

You shouldn't have to sell your soul
In black and white
They really, really ought to know
Those one track minds
That took you for a working boy
Kiss them goodbye
You shouldn't have to jump for joy
You shouldn't have to

Shout, shout, let it all out
These are the things I can do without
Come on, I'm talking to you, come on

Shout, shout, let it all out
These are the things I can do without
Come on, I'm talking to you, come on

I need another story
Something to get off my chest
My life gets kinda boring
Need something that I can confess
Til' all my sleeves are stained red
From all the truth that I've said
Come by it honestly I swear
Thought you saw wink, no
I've been on the brink, so

Tell me what you want to hear
Something that were like those years
Sick of all the insincere
So I'm gonna give all my secrets away
This time, don't need another perfect line
Don't care if critics never jump in line
I'm gonna give all my secrets away

My god, amazing how we got this far
It's like we're chasing all those stars
Who's driving shiny big black cars
And everyday I see the news
All the problems that we could solve
And when a situation rises
Just write it into an album
Singing straight, too cold
I don't really like my flow, no, so

Tell me what you want to hear
Something that were like those years
Sick of all the insincere
So I'm gonna give all my secrets away
This time, don't need another perfect line
Don't care if critics never jump in line
I'm gonna give all my secrets away

Oh, got no reason, got not shame
Got no family I can blame
Just don't let me disappear
I'mma tell you everything

So tell me what you want to hear
Something that were like those years
Sick of all the insincere
So I'm gonna give all my secrets away
This time, don't need another perfect line
Don't care if critics never jump in line
I'm gonna give all my secrets away

So tell me what you want to hear
Something that were like those years
Sick of all the insincere
So I'm gonna give all my secrets away
This time, don't need another perfect line
Don't care if critics never jump in line
I'm gonna give all my secrets away
All my secrets away, All my secrets away

I need another story
Something to get off my chest
My life gets kind of boring
Need something that I can confess

'Til all my sleeves are stained red
From all the truth that I've said
Come by it honestly I swear
Thought you saw me wink, no
I've been on the brink, so

Tell me what you want to hear
Something that will light those ears
I'm sick of all the insincere
So I'm gonna give all my secrets away
This time
Don't need another perfect line
Don't care if critics ever jump in line
I'm gonna give all my secrets away

My God, amazing how we got this far
It's like we're chasing all those stars
Who's driving shiny big black cars

And everyday I see the news
All the problems that we could solve
And when a situation rises
Just write it into an album
Seen it straight to gold
But I don't really like my flow, no, so

Tell me what you want to hear
Something that will light those ears
I'm sick of all the insincere
So I'm gonna give all my secrets away
This time
Don't need another perfect line
