lyrics

When the colours
Start to blur
One day beside you
Will start to hurt
Your tired eyes
Keep me afloat
You're smiling back for once
I start to choke
I didn't know you well
But now the walls are up in smoke
You tell me everything
Then swear it was a joke
Backing away
I should've thought before I spoke

(No matter what happens, no matter how often
Or how hard, or how bad you fall
Whatever happens when you're down there
It's gonna be okay
So, that's something
That's something
Isn't it?)

I see the world
In your eyes
A burning fire will never
Apologize
In the winter
Like it was
Yesterday
Pick me up
And hold me, and hold me in your arms

I sit alone with you
It's all it's supposed to be
I sit and talk with you
Endless apologies
I walk along with you
It's all it's supposed to be
I sit alone with you
It's my apology

I'll set myself on fire
To keep you warm
I know it's cold out there
I wanted more
This landlocked sailboat
Will pull us through
Don't matter where you go
As long as you
Keep me close

I think it's difficult to write songs about something other than romantic love, and still be able to communicate the intensity with which those feelings can hit a person. Some of the entries on this album are fantastic examples of this niche. dani_bloop
