Easier 03:51
Sometimes I surround myself in silence Sometimes I get lonely in a crowd I know I could walk without your guidance It's only that it's easier to stand Why does it always go The opposite way or the winding road Oh but you know that what matters most Is you get there I'm gonna go out there tonight I'm gonna face the burning lights But if you're standing by my side It'll be easier I'm gonna stare into the sun Not gonna look before I jump But if you're there to pick me up It'll be easier Easier Sometimes I get tired of the madness Sometimes I forget it's all I have I know I could walk without your balance It doesn't mean I won't reach for your hand Why does it always go The opposite way or the winding road Oh but you know that what matters most Is you get there I'm gonna go out there tonight I'm gonna face the burning lights But if you're standing by my side It'll be easier I'm gonna stare into the sun Not gonna look before I jump But if you're there to pick me up It'll be easier Easier I'm gonna go out there tonight I'm gonna face the burning lights But if you're standing by my side It'll be easier I'm gonna stare into the sun Not gonna look before I jump But if you're there to pick me up It'll be easier Easier

Fingerprints on the keys remind me I've been spending all my party time Just thinkin' Dreamin' Keepin' Music in your mind And I can't go out 'Cause I'm busy making rhymes Writing you a lullaby No I can't go out Should be dancing through the night There goes all my party time Just to keep the music in your mind Just to keep the music in your mind Just to keep the music in your mind Fingers numb on the strings remind me I've been spending all my party time Just thinkin' Dreamin' Keepin' Music in your mind And I can't go out 'Cause I'm busy making rhymes Writing you a lullaby No I can't go out Should be dancing through the night There goes all my party time Just to keep the music in your mind Just to keep the music in your mind Just to keep the music in your mind Just to keep the music in your mind (Fingerprints on the keys remind me) (I've been spending all my party time) Just to keep the music in your mind (Dreamin') (Keepin') (Music in your mind) Just to keep the music in your mind Just to keep the music in your mind Just to keep the music in your mind Just to keep the music in your mind

People come and people go Such is life ephemeral We put on our finest show But we're only here for a moment In the corners of our minds Storing up our borrowed time Tryna move that finish line But we're only here for a moment This is the part where we part But it won't be for forever It's just the start just the start We'll begin again together No it won't be for forever Still it's such sweet sorrow Massive ocean little boat Now you see us now you don't Just magicians heading home We were only here for a moment Like a cold man to a fire Fanning embers through the sky Tryna catch the fading light 'Cause we're only here for a moment This is the part where we part But it won't be for forever It's just the start just the start We'll begin again together No it won't be for forever Still it's such sweet sorrow (It's just the start just the start) Still it's such sweet sorrow (We'll begin again together) (No it won't be for forever) People come and people go Such is life ephemeral We put on our finest show But we're only here for a moment And it's such sweet sorrow

Closing Eyes 02:42
Do you play pretend Do you close your eyes Do you hide in corners Corners of your mind Do you step out sometimes Turn it up loud sometimes You've lost track of time You can't tell what's real Stuck behind the curtain You can't help but feel It's not right Right Right Like it should be Like it could be It's not right Spin like a record Race the wild Follow the footprints Chase the lights Promise me you'll go this time Promise me you'll really try Promise me you'll see the sights No more closing eyes Can you trust the wind Would you let the sky Steer you for a moment Could you close your eyes Live in a lullaby Step off the clouds and fly There's no time to waste We can see it's real Nobody believes us I can't help but feel It's not right Right Right Like it should be Like it could be It's not right Spin like a record Race the wild Follow the footprints Chase the lights Promise me you'll go this time Promise me you'll really try Promise me you'll see the sights No more closing eyes Spin like a record Race the wild Follow the footprints Chase the lights Promise me you'll see the sights No more closing eyes

Roof down driving in the sun Ah come on summer's begun I've got a reason Living in the rhythm Of the season I've got a fresh start Thrown into the moment With a new heart I think it's about time Yeah I think it's about time Ah yeah It's just about that time Yeah I think it's about time Roof down driving in the sun Ah come on summer's begun Roof down driving in the sun Ah come on summer's begun I've got a new scene Floating in the ocean It's a new me The summer's all mine I'm happy to be catching All the sunshine I think it's about time Yeah I think it's about time Ah yeah It's just about that time Yeah I think it's about time Roof down driving in the sun Ah come on summer's begun Roof down driving in the sun Ah come on summer's begun (Roof down driving in the sun) (Ah come on summer's begun) (Ah come on) (Come on) Roof down driving in the sun Ah come on summer's begun Roof down driving in the sun Ah come on summer's begun

Original 03:42
Out of this world You came like a stranger Careless of me To put you in danger Now you have gone You could never belong here Give my regards to the stars On your way back to Mars I would tell them myself But I'm scared of the dark And I'm Sending my love Out into an unknown region You mustn't be from here I know the world has nothing like this I thought I'd seen it all Original But there was nothing like this You mustn't be from here I know the world has nothing like this I thought I'd seen it all Original But there was nothing like this I can still feel your Force where you landed I was the one The Martian befriended Now you have gone I can never belong here Save me a seat on your ship 'Cause I'm done with this world We'll have everything I'll be your galaxy girl And I'm Chasing my heart Out into an unknown region You mustn't be from here I know the world has nothing like this I thought I'd seen it all Original But there was nothing like this You mustn't be from here I know the world has nothing like this I thought I'd seen it all Original But there was nothing like this Nothing like this Nothing like this I thought I'd seen it all Original But there was nothing like this Nothing like this Nothing like this I thought I'd seen it all Original But there was nothing like this You mustn't be from here I know the world has nothing like this I thought I'd seen it all Original But there was nothing like this You mustn't be from here I know the world has nothing like this I thought I'd seen it all Original But there was nothing like this Nothing like this Nothing like this I thought I'd seen it all Original But there was nothing like this
