1.You're All I Have
Strain this chaos turn it into light
I've got to see you one last night
Before the lions take their share
Leave us in pieces, scattered everywhere
Just give me a chance to hold on
Give me a chance to hold on
Give me a chance to hold on
Just give me something to hold onto
It's so clear now that you are all that I have
I have no fear cos you are all that I have
It's so clear now that you are all that I have
I have no fear cos you are all that I have
You're cinematic razor sharp
A welcome arrow through the heart
Under your skin feels like home
Electric shocks on aching bones
Give me a chance to hold on
Give me a chance to hold on
Give me a chance to hold on
Just give me something to hold onto
It's so clear now that you are all that I have
I have no fear cos you are all that I have
It's so clear now that you are all that I have
I have no fear cos you are all that I have
There is a darkness deep in you
A frightening magic I cling to
Give me a chance to hold on
Give me a chance to hold on
Give me a chance to hold on
Just give me something to hold onto
It's so clear now that you are all that I have
I have no fear now you are all that I have
It's so clear now that you are all that I have
I have no fear now you are all that I have
2.Hands Open
It's hard to argue when
you won't stop making sense
But my tongue still misbehaves and it
keeps digging my own grave with my
Hands open, and my eyes open
I just keep hoping
That your heart opens
Why would I sabotage
the best thing that I have
Well, it makes it easier to know
exactly what I want with my...
Hands open and my eyes open
I just keep hoping
that your heart opens
It's not as easy as willing it all to be right
Gotta be more than hoping it's right
I wanna hear you laugh like you really mean it
Collapse into me, tired with joy
Put Sufjan Stevens on
and we'll play your favorite song
'Chicago' bursts to life and your
sweet smile remembers you, my
Hands open, and my eyes open
I just keep hoping
That your heart opens
It's not as easy as willing it all to be right
Gotta be more than hoping it's right
I wanna hear you laugh like you really mean it
Collapse into me, tired with joy
3.Chasing Cars
We'll do it all
Everything
On our own
We don't need
Anything
Or anyone
If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?
I don't quite know
How to say
How I feel
Those three words
Are said too much
They're not enough
If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?
Forget what we're told
Before we get too old
Show me a garden that's bursting into life
Let's waste time
Chasing cars
Around our heads
I need your grace
To remind me
To find my own
If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?
Forget what we're told
Before we get too old
Show me a garden that's bursting into life
All that I am
All that I ever was
Is here in your perfect eyes, they're all I can see
I don't know where
Confused about how as well
Just know that these things will never change for us at all
If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?
The Lightning Strike
What if this storm ends? 假如這場暴風雨停止?
And I don't see you 我看不見你
As you are now 當你又再一次守候著我的時候
Ever again
The perfekt halo 完美的光暈
Of gold hair and lightning 因為你的金髮與閃電交錯而成
Sets you off against 離開你的軌道 (字面上的意思:與你的方向逆行)
The planet's last dance 是我星球最後一次的運行
Just for a minute 再等一下
The silver forked sky 等銀色的光劃過的天際
Lit you up like a star 點燃著你如星星般耀眼
That I will follow 我將追隨這片天空
Now it's found us 我們被愛尋找到
Like I have found you 如同我尋找到你
I don't want to run 我不想逃跑
Just overwhelm me 就讓你征服了我
--
What if this storm ends? 假如這場暴風雨停止?
And leaves us nothing 沒有甚麼能留給我們
Except a memory 除了回憶
A distant echo 一個如遙遠回音的回憶
I want pinned down 我想要安定
I want unsettled 又想要不穩定
Rattle cage after cage 穿過一個牢籠又一個牢籠的巨響聲
Until my blood boils 直到沸騰了血液
I want to see you 我想見你
As you are now 就像你在身邊
Every single day 我想見你在每一天
That I am living 就像我活著的每一天
Painted in flames 我的世界塗滿了火焰
All peeling thunder 當所有的雷落時
Be the lightning in me 就讓閃電在我心裡
That strikes relentless 殘酷的打擊著我吧
--
What if this storm ends? 假如這場暴風雨停止?
And I don't see you 我看不見你
As you are now 當你又再一次守候著我的時候
Ever again
The perfekt halo 完美的光暈
Of gold hair and lightning 因為你的金髮與閃電交錯而成
Sets you off against 離開你的軌道 (字面上意思:與你的方向逆行)
The planet's last dance 是我星球最後一次的運行
Just for a minute 再等一下
The silver forked sky 等銀色交叉的天際
Lit you up like a star 點亮著你如星星般耀眼
That I will follow 我將追隨你的這天空
Now it's found us 我們被愛尋找到
Like I have found you 如同我尋找到你
I don't want to run 我不想逃跑
Just overwhelm me 就讓你征服我吧!
4.Shut Your Eyes
Shut your eyes and think of somewhere
Somewhere cold and caked in snow
By the fire we break the quiet
Learn to wear each other well
And when the worrying starts to hurt
and the world feels like graves of dirt
Just close your eyes until
you can imagine this place, you're our secret space at will
Shut your eyes, I spin the big chair
And you'll feel dizzy, light, and free
And falling gently on the cushion
You can come and sing to me
And when the worrying starts to hurt
and the world feels like graves of dirt
Just close your eyes until
you can imagine this place, you're our secret space at will
Shut your eyes and sing to me (Shut your eyes and sing to me)
5.It's Beginning To Get To Me
I want something
That's purer than the water
Like we were
It's not there now
Ineloquence and anger
Are all we have
Like Saturn's rings
An icy loop around me
Too hard to hold
Lash out first
At all the things we don't like
Or understand
And it's beginning to get to me
That I know more of the stars and sea
Than I do of what's in your head
Barely touching in our cold bed
Are you beginning to get get my point
They're always fighting with aching joints
It's doing nothing but tire us out
No one knows what this fight's about
The answer phone
The lonely sound of your voice
Frozen in time
I only need
The compass that you gave me
To guide me on
And it's beginning to get to me
That I know more of the stars and sea
Than I do of what's in your head
Barely touching in our cold bed
Are you beginning to get get my point
They're always fighting with aching joints
It's doing nothing but tire us out
No one knows what this fight's about
It's so thrilling but also wrong
Don't have to prove that you are so strong
Cos I can carry you on my back
After our enemies attack
I tried to tell you before I left
But I was screaming under my breath
You are the only thing that makes sense
Just ignore all this present tense
We need to feel breathless with love
And not collapse under its weight
I'm gasping for the air to fill
My lungs with everything I've lost
We need to feel breathless with love
And not collapse under its weight
I'm gasping for the air to fill
My lungs with everything I've lost
6.You Could Be Happy
You could be happy and I won't know
But you weren't happy the day I watched you go
And all the things that I wished I had not said
Are played on lips 'till it's madness in my head
Is it too late to remind you how we were
But not our last days of silence, screaming, blur
Most of what I remember makes me sure
I should have stopped you from walking out the door
You could be happy, I hope you are
You made me happier than I'd been by far
Somehow everything I own smells of you
And for the tiniest moment it's all not true
Do the things that you always wanted to
Without me there to hold you back, don't think, just do
More than anything I want to see you go
Take a glorious bite out of the whole world
7.Make This Go On Forever
Please don't let this turn into something it's not
I can only give you everything I've got
I can't be as sorry as you think I should
But I still love you more than anyone else could
All that I keep thinking throughout this whole flight
Is it could take my whole damn life to make this right
This splintered mast I'm holding on won't save me long
Because I know fine well that what I did was wrong
The last girl in the last reason to make this last for as long
as I could
First kiss in your first time that I felt connected to anything
The weight of water, the way you told me to look past everything
I had ever learned
The final word in the final seconds you ever learned to me was
love
We have got through so much worse than this before
What's so different this time that you can't ignore
You say it is much more than just my last mistake
And we should spend some time apart for both our sakes
The last girl in the last reason to make this last for as long
as I could
First kiss in your first time that I felt connected to anything
The weight of water, the way you told me to look past everything
I had ever learned
The final word in the final seconds you ever learned to me was
love
The last girl in the last reason to make this last for as long
as I could
First kiss in your first time that I felt connected to anything
The weight of water, the way you told me to look past everything
I had ever learned
The final word in the final seconds you ever learned to me was
love
And I don't know where to look
My words just break and melt
And I don't know where to look
My words just break and melt
8.Set The Fire To The Third Bar
I find the map and draw a straight line
Over rivers, farms, and state lines
The distance from here to where you'd be
It's only finger-lengths that I see
I touch the place where I'd find your face
My finger in creases of distant dark places
I hang my coat up in the first bar
There is no peace that I've found so far
The laughter penetrates my silence
As drunken men find flaws in science
Their words mostly noises
Ghosts with just voices
Your words in my memory
Are like music to me
I'm miles from where you are,
I lay down on the cold gound
I, I pray that something picks me up
And sets me down in your warm arms
After I have travelled so far
We'd set the fire to the third bar
We'd share each other like an island
Until exhausted, close our eyelids
And dreaming, pick up from
The last place we left off
Your soft skin is weeping
A joy you can't keep in
I'm miles from where you are,
I lay down on the cold gound
And I, I pray that something picks me up
and sets me down in your warm arms
And miles from where you are,
I lay down on the cold gound
and I, I pray that something picks me up
and sets me down in your warm arms
I find the map and draw a straight line 拿出地圖 畫上一條直線
Over rivers, farms, and state lines 穿越河流 農莊 跟州界
The distance from here to where you'd be 那是從我這裡去你那裏的距離
It's only finger-lengths that I see 不是只有一個指長的距離嗎?
I touch the place where I'd find your face 我不該觸及到 那個你
My finger in creases of distant dark places 我把手放進看不見的黑暗奏摺裡
I hang my coat up in the first bar 我把大衣掛在第一個吧檯上
There is no peace that I've found so far 從來沒有這麼平靜過
The laughter penetrates my silence 突然笑聲刺破寂寥
As drunken men find flaws in science 像個醉漢醒酒破了沉默
Their words mostly noises 那些字語真的好吵
Ghosts with just voices 鬼才會發出這樣的聲音
Your words in my memory 你的字字珠璣
Are like music to me 像歌曲一樣一直複誦
I'm miles from where you are, 距離你幾里之遙
I lay down on the cold gound 我臥躺在冰冷的地板上
And I,I pray that something picks me up and sets me down in your
warm arms
我祈求你的溫暖能夠帶我走
After I have travelled so far 旅行了這麼遠之後
We'd set the fire to the third bar 我們放火燒了第三個吧檯
We'd share each other like an island 我們共享彼此 像在孤島
Until exhausted, close our eyelids 直到窘盡 映入眼簾
And dreaming, pick up from 像在夢裡 我們開始的地方
The last place we left off 我們最後一次見面的地方
Your soft skin is weeping 你的柔軟肌膚在哭泣
A joy you can't keep in 你再也無法參與那些歡愉了
I'm miles from where you are, 距離你幾里之遙
I lay down on the cold gound 我臥躺在冰冷的地板上
And I, I pray that something picks me up and sets me down in
your warm arms
祈求你的溫暖能夠帶我走
And miles from where you are, 距離你幾里之遙
I lay down on the cold gound 我臥躺在冰冷的地板上
and I, I pray that something picks me up and sets me down in
your warm arms
我祈求你的溫暖能夠帶我走
9.Headlights On Dark Roads
For once I want to be the car crash
Not always just the traffic jam
Hit me hard enough to wake me
And lead me wild to your dark roads
Headlights... before me
So beautiful, so clear
Reach out... and take it
Cos I'm so tired of all ths fear
My tongue is lost, oh, I can't tell you
Please just see it in my eyes
I pull up thorns from our ripped bodies
And let the blood fall in my mouth
Headlights... before me
So beautiful, so clear
Reach out... and take it
Cos I'm so tired of all ths fear
Headlights... before me
So beautiful, so clear
Reach out... and take it
Cos I'm so tired of all ths fear
10.Open Your Eyes
All this feels strange and untrue
And I won't waste a minute without you
My bones ache, my skin feels cold
And I'm getting so tired and so old
The anger swells in my guts
And I won't feel these slices and cuts
I want so much to open your eyes
Cos I need you to look into mine
Get up, get out, get away from these liars
Cos they don't get your soul or your fire
Take my hand, knot your fingers through mine
And we'll walk from this dark room for the last time
Every minute from this minute now
We can do what we like anywhere
I want so much to open your eyes
Cos I need you to look into mine
All this feels strange and untrue
And I won't waste a minute without you
11.The Finish Line
The earth is warm next to my ear
Insects noise is all that I hear
A magic trick makes the world disappear
The skies are dark, they're dark but they're clear
A distant motorcade and suddenly there's joy
The snow and tickertape blurs all my senses numb
It's like the finish line where everything just ends
The crack of radios seems close enough to touch
Cold water, cleaning my wounds
A side parade, with a single balloon
I'm done with this, I'm counting to ten
Blue as seas, running to them
I feel like I am watching everything from space
And in a minute I hear my name and I wake
I think the finish line's a good place we could start
Take a deep breath, take in all that you could want
