Now and then
Now and then It feels great to be On the road again See those scenes From the movie about me Now and then (Now and then) Day by day Day by day All those melodies Running through my brain See old friends Try to make amends Day by day (Day by day) Whoa I'm paranoid Ain't nothing breaking through the noise Half bake it till I'm overjoyed These melodies Whoa oh oh oh oh Like polaroids Half faded so we'll realize We're living in the best of times I'm frustrated like Whoa oh oh oh oh I'm paranoid Oh oh oh oh oh Oh oh oh oh oh We go around again and again like Whoa oh oh oh oh I'm paranoid Oh oh oh oh oh Oh oh oh oh oh We go around again and again like Whoa oh oh oh oh I'm paranoid Now and then Now and then I can't wait to feel At home again Our routine How you knew what I mean Now and then (Now and then) Whoa I'm paranoid Ain't nothing breaking through the noise Half baking out into the void These melodies Whoa oh oh oh oh Like polaroids Half faded searching for a sign Show me everything will be alright I'm frustrated like Whoa oh oh oh oh I'm paranoid Oh oh oh oh oh Oh oh oh oh oh We go around again and again like Whoa oh oh oh oh I'm paranoid Oh oh oh oh oh Oh oh oh oh oh We go around again and again like Whoa oh oh oh oh No more voices in my head I've forgotten what they said But every now and then We go around again and again like No more voices in my head I've forgotten what they said Now and then We go around again and again like Again and again and again Again and again Again and again Again and again Ooh oh oh Ooh oh oh

you know it's killing me
can we fill the space between the emptiness in everything without a simple song to sing i know you would give anything to make it all feel good again we find ourselves in the same place we can't fake it if this is the end i see myself in the distance is anything different or is it pretend can we pretend the dance isn't done and the feeling's the same this is the last one i say the dance isn't done and the feeling's the same this is the last one i say but that's a promise i'll break all i need's a little hope to make it like it was before it's pouring down rain all over my face again we find ourselves in the same place like a broken record stuck when it spins take us back to the old days if anything frozen could ever bend we would pretend can we pretend the dance isn't done and the feeling's the same this is the last one i say the dance isn't done and the feeling's the same this is the last one i say but that's a promise i'll break
no more days in the dark
here's your escape let the weight on your heart turn into waves let the rhythm of the sea move you to the melody as you float away meet me at the beach sand on our feet it's two hundred degrees there's music in the sky all you need is sunshine to clear the mind one afternoon in the sun one afternoon in the sun one afternoon in the sun one afternoon in the sun the energy is flowing freely lose yourself in it completely won't you come vibe with me back in style it's been a while now i'm dancing like a child all smiles no frowns it's where you want to be paradise at our feet in the perfect daydream keeping it on repeat there's music in the sky all you need is sunshine to clear the mind one afternoon in the sun one afternoon in the sun one afternoon in the sun one afternoon in the sun
if it feels this good now
how will it feel when it ends I don't wanna know sometimes the sun sets too quickly who would predict we would be so in love this could be heaven on earth looks like we might be the first this could be heaven on earth looks like we might be the first to see it if it feels this good now how will it feel if it never ends going places no one's been to the scenery is brand new is it pretend this could be heaven on earth looks like we might be the first this could be heaven on earth looks like we might be the first to see it no way we'd see it coming if we kept running from it like before we took a trip around the sun I wonder what we will become this could be heaven on earth looks like we might be the first this could be heaven on earth looks like we might be the first to see it if it feels this good now how will it feel when it ends I don't wanna know lazy days
of the summer make me wonder am I living my life the way that I wanna or am I just wasting my time with you with you on my mind you on my mind when you take a dive into the water it's always harder to see what's outside I'm in too deep I've been losing sleep kicking and screaming hoping that someone would see me drowning drowning drowning under you take a seat by the ocean take a sip of the potion that I mixed for you you're gonna wish you never knew all that I had to go through to get to the surface to find out my purpose wasn't it worth it and do I deserve this drowning drowning drowning over you still feels like I'm drowning still feels like I'm drowning feels like I'm drowning still feels like I'm drowning still feels like I'm drowning drowning without you funny how the thoughts disappear

I've been trying to feel your energy even though you're not with me physically you're making your way into my dreams we've got all these unresolved things call 'em feelings well I've been feeling like my world is getting quiet living without you don't know why I had to try it why did I doubt you if only I had listened we wouldn't have this distance we could be burning incense instead of burning bridges yeah ah yeah ah ah ah ah yeah ah yeah ah ah ah ah Los Angeles is on fire again and I said goodbye to all my friends but I kept you hanging by a thread said that I'd come back but I don't know when yet and my world is getting quiet living without you don't know why I had to try it why did I doubt you if only I had listened we wouldn't have this distance we could be burning incense instead of burning bridges yeah ah yeah ah ah ah ah yeah ah yeah ah ah ah ah maybe it's too late maybe I am wrong maybe we'll be safe maybe it's not gone maybe I can build myself back up and be someone you want to love cause I don't wanna keep burning bridges yeah ah yeah ah ah ah ah yeah ah yeah ah ah ah ah
safe when i'm inside
but as soon as i step outside the city eats me alive pretty palm trees from afar i picture me playing my guitar but it's been weeks been months been years all i need is fresh air natural light how did that become so f*ing hard to find stuck on the inside stuck on the inside trying not to cry they don't understand why i'm stuck on the inside riding in your car down broken boulevard you have my head my heart my scars three hours on the train's getting harder in this rain i don't wanna feel insane but i do all i need is fresh air natural light how did that become so f*ing hard to find stuck on the inside stuck on the inside trying not to cry they don't understand why i'm stuck on the inside of my of my mind can i get to you wanna be with you wanna be with you wanna be cannot get to you wanna be with you wanna be with you wanna be can i get to you wanna be with you wanna be with you wanna be whoa stuck on the inside, whoa stuck on the inside, whoa trying not to cry they don't understand why can't i get to you wanna be with you but i'm stuck on the inside, whoa
you still have my heart
i'm a shell of a woman just a chest with no heart just a head with no mind i am hollow inside dress me up just enough make me thin tilt my chin i'll be your doll if you want i'll be tall or be small if you want if you want i'm still standing here feeling kind of weird just watching crowds moving busily staring at me enviously i don't understand i'm a mannequin man i can't i can't live live like this all i know is emptiness empty this display and throw me away i'm a mess i'm dirty i've been tested and scuffed up can't protest cause i can't talk oh please you just like to mock me i'm still standing here feeling kind of weird just watching crowds moving busily staring at me enviously i don't understand i'm a mannequin man i can't i can't live live like this all i know is emptiness empty this display and throw me away all i know is emptiness empty this display throw me away mannequin
remember how we used to play outside
till the sun would hide behind the trees we'd write jokes as we spoke make everything rhyme laugh until we were weak those are the memories we'll hold onto while we search for somewhere else to belong to we dream of a day when we could get away go back to the place where life was play we know in our souls we'll never grow old don't want to let this go but we didn't know our paths are parting our lives are slowly starting to take shape but we liked our lines curved before we heard we had to change and make them straight just do what we're told take the mold of those who lead but they don't seem to understand what we really need we dream of a day when we could get away go back to the place where life was play we know in our souls we'll never grow old don't want to let this go but we didn't know didn't know we didn't know didn't know we'd dream of a day when we could get away go back to the place where life was play we know in our souls we'll never grow old don't want to let this go but we didn't know |
