You and Me 04:27
Climb over your hill and you'll find me Take in the sun rays as far as you can see We fell apart like the crumbling cake in my hands You and me A few more months with me and you'll find fault In the things i do for you my love We'll drift into the ocean like a wooden boat You and me I've said some things that i didn't mean But you took them oh so seriously I've called you names that i wont repeat But why should that stop you and me String me along but don't leave me lost at sea I remember the day when I asked if you loved me We need no guidance to find our way to shore Because we're not you and me anymore I've said some things that i didn't mean But you took them oh so seriously I've called you names that i wont repeat But why should that stop you and me Da da da dadadadada I've said some things that i didn't mean But you took them oh so seriously I've called you names that i wont repeat But why should that stop you and me

I hope things get better Before they get worse I can't live without your love Feels like i'm falling in reverse I can't believe you're in love with somebody else I didn't think you'd move on so fast I had an idea we were doomed from the start I knew this could never last 'Cause you stopped me in my tracks When i saw you kiss him back 'Cause you stopped me in my tracks When i saw you kiss him back I know this may be a fling But i don't want to know about you and him You only say it to put me down And highlight the fact that you're not around anymore 'Cause you stopped me in my tracks When i saw you kiss him back 'Cause you stopped me in my tracks When i saw you kiss him back Eventually i'll find myself And you'll find somebody else And i won't turn my head to see 'Cause you won't mean anything to me 'Cause you stopped me in my tracks When i saw you kiss him back 'Cause you stopped me in my tracks When i saw you kiss him back

You leave your car with the engine still running You search for breath but it just isn't coming Run away 'til she's a dot in the distance Asleep at night you'll dream of coexistence This is it she's broken your heart You won't know but she's torn it apart It's time to go before i make a fool of myself She ran away to follow her heart You're devastated you're falling apart It's time to go before you make a fool of yourself Went to bed, woke up on the floor Broken head, can't think anymore You search for a promise but everything is hopeless Is this it 'cause i don't think i can stand this This is it she's broken your heart You won't know but she's torn it apart It's time to go before you make a fool of yourself She ran away to follow her heart You're devastated you're falling apart It's time to go before i make a fool of myself Before i make a fool of myself (make a fool of my, make, make a fool of my) This is it she's broken your heart You won't know but she's torn it apart It's time to go before i make a fool of myself She ran away to follow her heart You're devastated you're falling apart It's time to go before i make a fool of myself

I was wrong and you were right Let's move on before we fight I don't want to let the anger out Glaze my eyes and fill my head with doubt I can barely look at you You never show what you cannot do Move along there's nothing left to see This evasion will be the death of me Talk at me from a different point of view It's not mine so it cannot be true My favorite thing to do is argue But i run away from, run away from you They reply and you ignore You're standing at the second floor Move your body closer to the edge Shut your eyes and beg for death Talk at me from a different point of view It's not mine so it cannot be true My favorite thing to do is argue But i run away from, run away from you Try to sleep with your eyes open It's hard to speak when you're outspoken They can't hear you now They're not listening to you now Talk at me from a different point of view It's not mine so it cannot be true My favorite thing to do is argue But i run away from, run away from you

Leaving Home 04:40
The horizon is getting smaller now And these summer nights are getting lighter The scene is set for us to leave this town And the sunlight through the windscreen is getting brighter And it's a long way until we find our homes But we don't care, we could drive all night if we want You're the love of my life, at least i think you are I tried so hard to give up on you but I can't I've lost my disguise I'm leaving home for the first time Looking back through someone else's eyes I'm leaving home for the first time And I'm a liar, when i say i don't care When i say that i'll never come back home When life is hard and life is unfair At least i'll never leave you on your own I've lost my disguise I'm leaving home for the first time Looking back through someone else's eyes I'm leaving home for the first time I'm gonna pack this bag and get away from here I'm gonna leave this town to face my fears We're gonna drive this car to somewhere new I'm gonna leave my home and get away with you I've lost my disguise I'm leaving home for the first time Looking back through someone else's eyes I'm leaving home for the first time I've lost my disguise I'm leaving home for the first time Looking back through someone else's eyes I'm leaving home for the first time
