UNDEAD
i can't get through a cup of tea, without turning to the oracle
tell me what's next, tell me, tell me
keep walking out without my keys, oh, you lost them for me
or was it me? was it me?
when i run and hide will you stay by my side?
will you believe?
i'm dreaming of zombies again
my mind should be on love in the afternoon
but i'm haunted by the undead when you ask me if I'm thinking of you
and you won't hear me say
run, oh, run, yeah, run
oh, run, run, run, run, run
i want to kill the introspection when i see it in your eyes
look at this, sell me
why should i keep looking ahead when the past knows where i sleep?
kill me, kill me
when i run and hide will you stay by my side?
will you believe?
i'm dreaming of zombies again
my mind should be on love in the afternoon
but i'm haunted by the undead when you ask me if i'm thinking of you
yeah, you wish that i was thinking of you
but you won't hear me say
run, oh, run, yeah, run
oh, run, run, run, run, run
hey, take a look inside my mind, our skins are melting
and you tell me everything is fine
yeah, everything is fine, oh, everything is fine
and you tell me
i'm chasing zombies again
there is no love in the afternoon
and i'm haunting the undead, oh, and you wish that i was thinking of you
i know you wish that i was thinking of you
baby, you wish i was thinking of you
but, they won't let me sleep, so, i can't let them be
no, they don't let me be, so, i won't let them sleep
oh, you better run (run), yeah, run (run)
oh, run, yeah, run, run, run, run, run
oh, run, (run), yeah, run!
and i'm chasing zombies again, there is no love in the afternoon
when i'm haunting the undead, oh, and you wish that i was thinking of you
i know you wish that i was thinking of you
you better run

WISH
happy birthday, blow out the candles
don't touch the wax still too hot to handle
and don't speak your wish or the air will steal it away
from your lips to blow straight out the window
up, meeting dandelions and balloons that were let go
tiny hands can't hold tight, they just wanted to play
oooo, hey
happy birthday
your wish floats up through the sky, way past the ozone
where all our souls slept till we decided to get born
stars for our pillows, oh, but, that was so long ago
now your soul lives down here making wishes on candles
if you speak them out loud, they fly off for an amble
up to stay in the vacancy your soul left behind in the sky
no, they can't come back down, but, you'll see them again, just give it time
when you've wished your last wish and all of your breath
is weary of filling and escaping your chest
all the wishes you missed will meet you again in the sky
if you've lost them on earth, your wishes will wait for you when you die
oooo, hey
happy birthday
happy birthday, blow out the candles
and don't touch the wax still too hot to handle
and don't speak your wish or the air will steal it away
no, don't speak your wish
oooo, happy birthday

I THOUGHT THAT I WAS DYING (SAME AS YESTERDAY)
i thought that i was dying last week
and sunup brings no reprieve
my soul woke up half a mile
from where my body shut her eyes
i thought i was dying, i thought i was
get up from bed and turn on the lights
dig up some clothes, do anything right
i thought i was dying, i thought i was dead
it's just a phase, it's all okay
you're the same as yesterday
so why fight? it's all alright
these feelings just happen sometimes
i thought that i was drowning the day before
i felt the morning water rush my bedroom door
but my clothes were dry, so I can't know
was it in my head, the saltwater in my throat?
i thought that i was dying, i thought that i was
everyday my heart is on fire
every step i take i trip another wire
i thought that i was dying, i thought that i was dead
it's just a phase, it's all okay
you're the same as yesterday
so why fight? it's all alright
these feelings just happen sometimes
if waves are crashing in my mind
are they only crashing in my mind?
i feel them lashing at my skin
oh, am i sinking in?
i feel them lashing at my mind
and i thought that i was dying
i thought that i was dying
i thought that i was dying
i thought that i was dying
i thought that i was dying
i thought that i was dying

LIFEBOATS
i just need a moment to think, everything's
moving so fast
i just need a moment to give my heart a breath
it's been beating all night in an ocean of fear
i've been losing sight to keep my vision clear
and i get this feeling right before i break
this whisper tug behind me, i've already made
this mistake
i never believed in lifeboats
if you're at sea, you'd better swim
i apologize for all the water i've been letting in
save me, if you think that i can change
or change me into something you would save
i just need a moment to be something that's not
underneath
i just need a moment to believe i'm worth a damn
i don't know if i am, i've been sinking this ship
like it's my mission since i asked you to get in
and i get this feeling when that look's upon
your face
this is no surprise at all and it is nothing i can
unbreak
i never believed in lifeboats
if you're at sea you'd better swim
i apologize for all the water i've been letting in
save me, if you think that i can change
or change me into something you would save
something you would save
when the storm is over and we're coming up for air
will you be gone? will you be there?
i never believed in lifeboats
if you're at sea, you'd better swim
i apologize for all the water i've been letting in
save me, if you think that i can change
or change me into something you would save
something you would save
something you would save

HOME
home, oh, go home, but, you're not home
have you even been here?
long, so long ago echoes in your heart
silence in your ears
every time you look, every time you look
there's something else
the corners of your mind, corners of your mind they show themselves
one by one you're letting go
of promises whispered
and noone can know how they're part of your heart like heat in a blister
everywhere you look, everywhere you look
there's nothing else
and the corners of your mind, corners of your mind
they show themselves
and if i could rearrange
half as well as those memories
i would dismember myself
i'd move my heart outside
so it could use my eyes
if a heart could see to believe
it could save time
the moments that you love are in your mind
and the roots from which you grow get left behind
i remember, i remember, i remember…
but you'll never find them

NO SLEEP
i get bored taking care of myself
When you’re gone there’s no one else
but me
if i get it together
why should you come back?
oh, come back
don’t tell me to smile
if you’re not here to see it
and don’t say it’s been a while
if you don’t really feel it
don’t tell me goodnight
the moon is misleading
there's no sleep tonight
you hold back what i’m needing
i call out when i know i’m alone
just to hear my echoes grown
with me
i’ll get it together
when are you coming back?
oh, come back
don’t tell me to smile
if you’re not here to see it
don’t say it’s been a while
if you don’t really feel it
no, don’t tell me goodnight
the moon is misleading
there's no sleep tonight
you hold back what i’m needing
oh, you, you hold back what i’m needing
you say you care
tell me you’re scared
for my well being
but i wonder
what are you seeing?
don’t tell me to smile
if you’re not here to see it
don’t say it’s been a while
if you don’t really feel it
no, don’t tell me goodnight
the moon is misleading
there's no sleep tonight
you hold back what I’m needing
don’t tell me to smile
if you’re not here to see it
and, no, don’t say it’s been a while
when we know you don’t really feel it
don’t tell me goodnight
the moon is misleading
no, no sleep tonight
you hold back what i’m needing
oh, you, you hold back what i’m needing
yeah, you hold back what i am needing

SHELL
you're the only one who gave me time
to fall in love before you swore
your heart was mine
in me for years building up
and when you said you loved me
you were drunk
you made me swear i didn't hear
it was never said, you could not reveal
because if you made me wait a little more
you knew, you knew i'd be yours, be yours
and this pain it aches underneath sunny days
so i barely notice anymore
then, all at once, the wave of how it all went wrong
drags me like a shell along the shore
empty and too broken to hold more
empty and too broken to hold more
