I Want It All

(I Want It All)
I want the morning routine
I want the magic and meaning
And everything in between
Cause with you by my side
We can take it in stride
Together we’re invincible
Our fire won’t die
Misery exists but the distance doesn’t have to
I’m dreaming in reality whenever I’m with you
(I Want It All)
All
(I Want It All)
All
(I Want It All)
All
(I Want It All)
All
(I Want It All)
I want the intimacy
The bedroom talk in
Our oasis of intensity
Cause with you by my side
We can take it in stride
Till death do us part
I hope he never comes by
Misery exists but the distance doesn’t have to
I’m dreaming in reality whenever I’m with you

The bad days
And the fierce fights
And heartache
Of being left on read
(I Want It All)
The long nights
And the late days
Telling me about
The mess in your head
(I Want It All)
The bad days
And the fierce fights
And heartache
Of being left on read

Rock Bottom
03:40
|

|
The bombs have fallen
The kingdom’s in ruin
I’m heartbroken
I’m back home today
Burnt bridges
Both sides winless
I’m not religious but
I’m praying tonight
For the decline of my state
I don’t think that I can stay
Another day lost
I’m hitting Rock Bottom
Everybody thinks that I’m okay
But there’s been no good days
Another day lost
I’m hitting Rock Bottom
The future has fallen
Our plans in ash
Our post has been abandoned
Let us die in the past
Six months later
I’m all out of hope
Misfortune follows me
My mind won’t let go
For the decline of my state
I don’t think that I can stay
Another day lost
I’m hitting Rock Bottom
Everybody thinks that I’m okay
But there’s been no good days
Another day lost
I’m hitting Rock Bottom
I’m sorry
I’m leaving
I’m growing
I’m a new man
I’m breaking out of Rock Bottom
I’m sorry
I’m leaving
I’m growing
I’m a new man
I’m breaking through the walls of the jail
For the decline of my state
I don’t think that I can stay
Another day lost
I’m hitting Rock Bottom
Everybody thinks that I’m okay
But there’s been no good days
Another day lost
I’m hitting Rock Bottom
For the decline of my state
I don’t think that I can stay
Another day lost
I’m hitting Rock Bottom
Everybody thinks that I’m okay
But there’s been no good days
Another day lost
I’m hitting Rock Bottom

Some Kind Of Poison
03:22
|

|
I’m sick of being bitter
And I wish I could just let her know
I don’t think I can quit her
But I think I should let her go
I’m sour out of power
And you know I’m exhausted
Tried my best at this point
I’m love’s hostage
Cause she’s toxic for me
With all I’m trying to achieve
My anxious thoughts
Have got my fingers bleeding
We’ll always be one of my greatest failures
Nothing to show for a years worth of labour
Still better if we stay strangers and let it be
Cause you’re some kind of poison
I never wanted it to end like this
Bitter and distant, no room to be missed
Still better if we stay strangers and let it be
Cause you’re some kind of poison
Some kind of poison to me
Think I’m gonna miss her
When I’m on my own
I’ve always been a nail biter
Now I’ve gotta let her go
Thought we were on the same team
But disloyalty’s mainstream
My anxious thoughts
Have got my fingers bleeding
We’ll always be one of my greatest failures
Nothing to show for a years worth of labour
Still better if we stay strangers and let it be
Cause you’re some kind of poison
I never wanted it to end like this
Bitter and distant, no room to be missed
Still better if we stay strangers and let it be
Cause you’re some kind of poison
Some kind of poison to me
It’s hard to stomach
But it’s something you need to hear
I’m always at my darkest
With you near
You’re the strain on all my demons
With little light to shine through
I finally found my hope and
It’s without you
We’ll always be one of my greatest failures
Nothing to show for a years worth of labour
Still better if we stay strangers and let it be
Cause you’re some kind of poison
I never wanted it to end like this
Bitter and distant, no room to be missed
Still better if we stay strangers and let it be
Cause you’re some kind of poison
Some kind of poison to me

VERSE
Call me a Saint
Call me a liar
Call me your friend
Set me on fire
Go light a match
I’ll be your spark
I’ll be your fire
You’ll get through the dark
Don’t bite your tongue
I’ll be your sponge
Soak up the words when
You’re overwhelmed
Don’t hold it in
Get out of your head
Let it all out
It’s a means to an end
PRE
I know I said I’d
Be by your side no matter the time
But I can’t save your
World while I’m fighting for mine
CHORUS
I can’t be your saviour
But I can be a beacon for you
Can’t preach with my behaviour
But I can be a beacon for you
I can’t be your saviour
But I can be a beacon for you
No knight in shining armour
But I can be a beacon for you
(Beacon for you)
VERSE
We have our wars
We have our posts
We have our battles
To which we’re betrothed
I have my demons
You’ve seen my scars
I’m in the trenches
Don’t wish on my star
PRE
I know I said I’d
Be by your side no matter the time
But I can’t save your
World while I’m fighting for mine
CHORUS
I can’t be your saviour
But I can be a beacon for you
Can’t preach with my behaviour
But I can be a beacon for you
I can’t be your saviour
But I can be a beacon for you
No knight in shining armour
But I can be a beacon for you
(Beacon for you)
BRIDGE
WOAH OH
WOAH OH
WOAH OHHHHH
WOAH OH
WOAH OH
WOAH OHHHHH
VERSE
You called me a Saint
For my mistake
Of always giving
More than I take
I’m not a Saint
That’s your mistake
You should be careful
With your blind faith

She thinks that I’m brilliant
But it’s hard to see the spaces
With candlelit knowledge
You can’t read the pages
I’m empty minded
I can’t find distraction to
Keep me away from you
I think she’s selfish
She throws away potential
Without consequences
Stuck in denial
She’s still undecided
If I’m a distraction to
Keep her away from it all
Tried to start anew
Didn’t get to far with you
Maybe it’s too soon
But it’s always too soon
Maybe I’m starting a new lifetime
Maybe I’m starting a new lovelife
Take your time
I’m in no rush
I can wait
Tell me something
I know nothing now
Well I think he’s stupid
Cause he keeps me at a distance
He locks himself away
When I really need him
He won’t give in
Thinks he’s mysterious
The million questions
That I have abandoned
You think I self destruct
But I do it for a reason
So much in my head
You couldn’t believe it
You tell me I’m angry
When I’m just overwhelmed
You try but you don’t understand
Tried to start anew
Didn’t get to far with you
Maybe it’s too soon
But it’s always too soon
Maybe I’m starting a new lifetime
Maybe I’m starting a new lovelife
Take your time
I’m in no rush
I can wait
Tell me something
I know nothing now
Cause I’ve tried for so long
My heart’s still in her arms
It’s hard not to leave
When you’re so damn naive
And it’s hard to co-exist
With our problems unaccepted
Do you think that we can change?
Maybe I’m starting a new lifetime
Maybe I’m starting a new lovelife
Take your time
I’m in no rush
I can wait
Tell me something
I know nothing now
Tell me something
I know nothing now
