Lights And Sounds lyrics

Man once sang to me
Look at you saving the world on your own
And I wonder how things gonna be
Cos the time here it passes so slow

In a city of devils we live
A city of devils we live

Find somebody to learn
Boy you gotta love someone more than yourself
I can feel the fire of the city lights burn
And it's hard to find angels in hell

[Chorus]

Flying along I

I work all night
For one more day that I can say I'm all alone, alone
I just need time
And I will say what I believe and I'll come home, home
And all I know

[Chorus]

I never thought I would wake up in bed
Watching the world coming down on my head
I'd sleep like a dog if you would never had said
This is the world coming down on your head

As life flies by

Grey skies, clouding up the things
We used to see with wide eyes
Maybe everything was meant to be this way
Will it ever change,
Or are we stuck here on our own?
It's all gone grey
It's all gone grey

I've found telling you the truth
The hardest thing to get out
I know it wasn't you
That made me feel this way
Will it ever change,
Or are we stuck here on our own?

Accidents,
out on the highway to somewhere,
they tell us about when we're young,
rescuers working to clean up the crashes
before she can see what they've done ,
nobody told her she'd lose in the first round,
The last fight was fixed from the start,
Names on her sidewalks they move through her body,
Like razors they cut through her heart
Like razors they cut through her heart

I could tell you the wildest of tales
My friend the giant and traveling sails
Tell you all the times that I've failed
The years all behind me the stories exhaled

And I'm drying out
Crying out
This isn't how I go

I could tell you of a man not so tall
Who said lifes a circus and so we are small
Tell you of a girl that I saw
I froze in the moment and she changed it all

Hello, you, how was the rest?
You made it through, but nevertheless
I got you out on a wire.
You be love and I'll be a liar.

Tell it all and fill up the air,
But make it loud cause nobody's there
And nobody's there
And nobody's there

[chorus]
Stop, turn, take a look around
At all the lights and sounds.
Let 'em bring you in.
Slow burn, let it all fade out,
Pull the curtain down.

Here it is
One more glass for these broken hands
Goes down for you

I've fallen in
I sink then swallow
I never meant
To see this through

I'm taking 'em all
I'm taking 'em all back for good
To a place where I know that I'm safe
There I can fall
There I can fall where I should
In this bottle with all my mistakes

All the days since I've landed
I lost the way to find my truth

Left the ground in black and white
And when the plane went down
The colours all around
I know by now, the margin's slight
And still I can't get out
She's all I think about
Cant let her go
It's who you know

(Chorus)
We came down to watch the world walk by
And all she found was trouble in my eyes
From the sky she pulled me down tonight
Let her go, let her go

I heard a voice last night
It said wake up and open your eyes
Wake up, walk out tonight
Cause she don't care if your dead or alive
Dead or alive

She moves like beams of light
Straight through this universe in my head
Where I get peace of mind
I'm free from the stupid things that I said
She's all in my head

Did I get lost while I was gone
I traveled space for much too long

He likes vampires and hitlist radio
But turns it off when he hears
This one song he knows
And you breathe the windows down

You're driving I4* as you make your way back home
You ride in silence because
He will not let go
And you breathe the windows down
It's a new place that you have found

[Chorus]
But I've been up late writing books
All about heroes and crooks

[Instrumental]

Jimmy wasn't really popular
He had a couple of friends back home
Sooner or later they're all getting out
So he had to join up alone
He was dreaming of the Ivy League
Since he was only 3 feet tall
Get the hell out of Jersey and then
He would never look back at all

And then you hear 'em say
That miles away
We lost another one that we sent with a gun

You and me
A little different though we tried to stay the same
It never leaves
And when it changes it is still a waiting game

I wait for a lonely breath
I wait to surface from this depth
Wait for the light to come and take away
These images I've kept
In my head.

More then ever
I need to feel you
More then ever
I see the real you

You are me
A worse disaster would be waking up alone

The whole world was sleeping and I was there
You could just sense this feeling in the air
Like no one's words were good enough
To define what we fear
And no one's words were strong enough
To fix what happened here

Lead on to save me lead us all there
Find me some answers one nation beware
Can't tell the difference between myth and man
Or what's necessary or where I should stand
