We were born in the silence
It was constant and quiet
And a sun always shining
Where we spent our days
And now everything's changing
Making wild such a tame thing
It feels right that's the strange thing
So don't run away
I'll be here with you
While the world goes through what it has to
But it will pass
Everything's changing so fast
And this is what it's like
Seeing the end in our time
Everything's changing so fast
See a distant light glowing
If you're scared you can't show it
There's a mountain of moments
Coming our way, yeah yeah yeah
And it's new and it's different
A great pull don't you feel it
And you know that you'll miss it
If you run away, yeah yeah
I'll be here with you
And this is what it's like
Seeing the end in our time
Everything's changing so fast
And this is how it feels
Watching the words become real
Everything's changing so fast
Everything's changing so fast
Crowding
We never fit in
There'll come a day when we will
Make all the promises last
Everything's changing so fast
Everything's changing so fast, ooh
This is what it's like
Seeing the end in our time
Everything's changing so fast
And this is how it feels
Watching the words become real
Everything's changing so fast
Everything's changing so fast
Everything's changing so fast

Plan B - Acoustic

This is a message for the captain
I am just a passenger
But I put my life into your hands
And just like all the others on board
I departed willingly
Thinking I would fly to safer land
We watch the flames pass by the window
So tell us it will be alright
Because the empty spaces below
Are playing on our mind
Oh no
We've lost our way
And we can't tell up from down
Oh no
Can I just say
Hey hey
What are you counting on now
What's plan B
Now that the engine has shut down
What's plan B
Now that the lights are out
And we're drifting far away
Too far for anyone to save
This is a sticky situation
Tell me do you really think
They will hear us if we cry aloud
'Cause just like all the others on board
My responsibilities
Lie about a thousand feet straight down
Oh no
We've lost our way
And we can't tell up from down
Oh no
Can I just say
Hey hey
What are you counting on now
What's plan B
Now that the engine has shut down
What's plan B
Now that the lights are out
And we're drifting far away
Too far for anyone to save
We watch the flames pass by the window
So tell us it will be alright
Because the empty spaces below
Are playing on our mind
Oh no
We've lost our way
And we can't tell up from down
Oh no
Can I just say
Hey hey
What are you counting on now
What's plan B
Now that the engine has shut down
What's plan B
Now that the lights are out
And we're drifting far away
Too far for anyone to save

Lift You - Acoustic
03:31

Can I be your helium balloon
Lift you up
To a new distraction
Surely it's our time to surface soon
Out of breath
Out of action
How can I help
Take my heart
Take my hand
Where does it hurt
'Cause I don't
Understand
Tell me darling
Tell me straight
How can I lift you
How can I lift you
Oh
You're pulling me down
With that look on your face
It's like tryna move a dead weight
How can I lift you
Oh
Can I put some red into the blue
Indigo
Holes in your horizon
Let me be the one to pull you through
Give you hope
Something to survive on
How can I help
Take my heart
Take my hand
Where does it hurt
'Cause I don't
Understand
Tell me darling
Tell me straight
How can I lift you
How can I lift you
Oh
You're pulling me down
With that look on your face
It's like tryna move a dead weight
How can I lift you
Oh
Still
You have heavy bones
Must be iron
Runnin' through your veins
Anchoring the pain
So tell me darling
Tell me straight
How can I lift you
Oh
How can I lift you
Oh
You're pulling me down
With that look on your face
It's like tryna move a dead weight
How can I lift you
Oh

Ashtray - Acoustic
03:58
|

I never died
When winter came I was alive
And I ran away
To keep me safe
Tallied the walls 'til the spring arrived
I never cried
I wanted to thousands of times
When I thought of you
Old words seemed new
Hiding my face as they came to life
I will never see it coming
But I know that I will be there on the last day
When we leap out of the fire
And we leave it all behind us
In the ashtray
Taken away
One man was blind
But he could see out of his mind
And he spoke to me
Ten pages deep
Said give me your heart
And I'll be your eyes
That was the start
Kingdoms started falling apart
Soon the dust will breathe
In golden streets
Second hand marking the
End of time
I will never see it coming
But I know that I will be there on the last day
When we leap out of the fire
And we leave it all behind us
In the ashtray
Taken away
Yeah-a-ay
Open your eyes
Time to reveal the surprise
Was it worth the wait
No need to say
Show me the wonder
It just won't hide
I will never see it coming
But I know that I will be there on the last day
When we leap out of the fire
And we leave it all behind us
In the ashtray
I will never see it coming
But I know that I will be there on the last day
When we leap out of the fire
And we leave it all behind us
In the ashtray
Taken away
Hey hey
Mmmmm
