I've been stuck in this whirlwind
my life's been spinning round my head
long distance conversations
make up for me not being there

and now I'm coming home
I'm coming home to you again
I hope you feel the same
now I'm coming home
I'm coming home to you again
I hope things haven't changed

singin'
I've been locked inside this freight train
unaware of the normal life I had

let's fall deeper into sleep
and our dreams become fake reality
I wake, I hope
I'm on my way, to a coast
where I know the roads like the back of my hand
familiar landscapes

and I know that this is new
like your first day of school
and you're feeling awkward
like you miss your home
and it leaves you with an empty feeling
I just can't take it anymore

what do you want from me?

it was a cold california
even in the summer
she was wrapped in a blanket by the pool
there were rapid statements about life commitments
a sense of heat
that I couldn't bare to touch, I couldn't bare it

it's not your fault so please stop your crying now

there was a staring in seclusion
a fine tuned way of motion
a face wrapped for a suitor
the sound of hearts pumping at the same beat

leave it to me, to lose all your confidence
and no, I can't stop, this train wreck before it hits
I hope I don't sound like the x's on your calendar
I stumble on new ground to gather up the formula

fate, faith
you and me
love and pain
fate, faith
you and me
love and pain
even I know there's a line between emotion and
fate, faith
you and me
love and pain

I know you're losing sleep over me
I know you'll relive every moment
below sheets where dreams are made

I know you'll cover your eyes
I know you'll quiver when fingers touch your side
but it all coincides some way

move a little closer, hold me tighter
I'll stay if you're gonna keep me in line
don't want it to be over, move move slower
I'll stay if you're gonna keep me in line

let's make a date out of the cinema
then stay out til early in the morning
I always like it cause we take it slow
while everyone around us seems so hurried

it feels familiar cause I've been here before
when your words
swept the ground right from under me
remember when you were so insecure
now you can't get your hands up off of me

but the time we spent was so short

Constantly connected to the total unexpected
I'm a con, a stealer of hearts
I only keep this facade
To keep you on your toes
I'll take a glance while you sleep at night
Right from under your nose
So don't leave me

Don't leave, don't leave me here
I can't breathe without you
Don't leave, don't leave me here
I don't want to be without you
I don't want to live without you

this is my relapse
that I've succumbed to
I went through things no one should have to
I could have never let this slip
I could have let this slip

and everything I do it reflects you
you went through things no one should have to
I could have never let this slip
I could have let this slip

and all those things you say out of nowhere
I'm taken back by you

I wonder, what life would be like
if my shoulder could bare the weight of all this adding up
I feel the breaking point
it's close enough, it's feeling real again

you have my heart in your hands
you have my heart so don't, don't let it go
check my pressure
patch me right up, you're too good to be

it's true, we both make sacrifices
there's proof, it came as no surprise

now I have finally accepted
we will never stand in the same room
I can never hear your voice of reason
at least you didn't, didn't feel a thing

when I was younger you would tell me
that I should wait to grow up
that things don't go always as planned
at least you didn't, didn't feel a thing

no you didn't didn't have to feel a thing
no you didn't feel

when I die I'll be fine
