FRIDAY THE 13TH

took the long way home
saw your light on
i been dreamin all alone
with all my might on
first i’ll write you a letter
then i’ll throw it to the sea
that’s how it’s gotta be
took the long way home
as i often seem to
do you sleep with all that pain
have you learned to breathe through
first they’ll find us holding on
then they’ll see us letting go
that’s how we know
that’s how we grow
got some real nice friends
got a job that i don’t hate
have you seen the view
i mean i really can’t complain
i’m just missing you
missing you

CLOSE TO HOME
03:37
|

|
see you taking your time
roll the windows down
all the blood to my face
when you turn around
and there's nowhere to run
no, there's nowhere to run away
and i'm catching my breath
and i see you laugh
sayin what are the odds
when you know you have
my venus, moon, and sun
dreams that tell you i'm the one
when we met
how could we know
what we could grow
how we were so
close to home
close to home
take me back
to the shadows
watch the sunset
bring the light so
close to home
will you keep me in your heart
to come and go
will you keep me in your heart
but not your home
will you keep me in your heart
and let me go again
so i'm taking the stage
while you take a walk
without leaving a trace
of the aftershock
i want to sing to you
and i tried so hard to stay awake
night swimming in your sea
a fall in reverie
and i tried so hard to be enough
to make myself complete
forgetting it was me

(music & lyrics by bloc party)
to be lost in the forest
to be cut adrift
you've been trying to reach me
you bought me a book
to be lost in the forest
to be cut adrift
i've been paid, i've been paid
to be lost in the forest
to be cut adrift
you've been trying to reach me
you bought me a book
to be lost in the forest
to be cut adrift
i've been paid, i've been weighed, i've been
don't get offended if i seem absent minded
just keep telling me facts and keep making me smile
and don't get offended if i seem absent minded
i get tongue-tied
baby, you've got to be more discerning
i've never know what's good for me
baby, you've got to be more demanding
i will be yours
i'll pay for you
anytime
and you told me you wanted to eat up my sadness
well jump right on, surely, and gorge away
and you told me you wanted to eat up my sadness (jump right)
baby, you've got to be more discerning
i've never know what's good for me and
baby, you've got to be more demanding (jump left)
what are you holding out for
what's always (in the way)
why so damn absent minded
why so scared (of romance)
this modern love breaks me
this modern love wastes me
do you want to come over and kill some time
throw your arms around me

WIND OUTTA ME
04:00
|
|||
|
if love is a mirror, well, so is sin
this flood of desire i’m drowning in
how dare the blood rush to your face
you knew it and time won’t erase
i’m wanting you, wondering, wanting to
give myself over again
and as the summer falls
there’s an aching in my hips
and when i dream aloud
there’s your name across my lips
your clarity knocks the wind out of me
we got seven minutes before we’re through
negative space fillin up the truth
the odds in our favor to change
the lights out and i rearrange
my memories heavy, i’m grasping for
all that i wanted to hold
and as the summer falls
there’s an aching in my hips
and when i dream aloud
there’s your name across my lips
your clarity knocks the wind out of me
every time you leave
i remember how you let me
go do you believe
you could ever forget me

LEMON
02:16
|
|||
|
sometimes i say too much
i mean more than i say
there might not be a reason
but there's got to be a way
this one's for the present
this one's for the day
i realized that i'll be fine
though all my dreams are frayed
have i lost you yet
i never seem to know
cos even when you want me
your honesty don't show
have i lost you yet
i'm keeping my eyes closed
our romance was a lemon
and that's just the way it goes
