passengers
I lie awake at two a.m. and I think it all over
lie awake and I think the whole thing through
there's a whole parade of thoughts in here but none,
none of them is new
I here you breathing next to me and it's giving me shivers
like fingers down a chalkboard used to do
there's a whole lot of places I wish I was right now but none,
none of them with you
when did we end up stranded and tied-handed
we could have gone so far
but come the morning light, I know we'll both stay where we are
we wait; we wait for change
we wait; for brand new days
and from the passenger seats of our lives
we watch the drive
we wait; we wait for change
we wait; for brand new days
and from the passenger seats of our lives
we watch them pass by
you'll be my excuse for one more
you'll be my excuse for one more
...
and I'll be your excuse for one more day

runaway
the walls are coming closer
the ceiling ain't that high
this room is getting smaller day by day and so am I
the sky is growing heavy
I will collapse under its weight
the air is getting thin just like the ice beneath our feet
we should run, run, run
before it's too late
are you doin any better?
can you breathe in all this dust?
don't you believe we have to break away before we start to rust?
we should run, run, run
into the dawn and down the avenue
away from here
would you come along with me?
time has born a pair of runaways
so show no fear
as we are heading for the sea
you and me
eventually
we're gonna rise before the sun does
just like thieves we'll steal away
and before the city wakes we are already on our way
we won't look back as we are leaving
I'll look at you, you'll look at me
and from the top of granville bridge we'll throw our keys into the sea
and we'll run, run, run
into the dawn and down the avenue
away from here
would you come along with me?
time has born a pair of runaways
so show no fear
as we run, run, run
away from here

Where We Are

Where We Are
with one and the same beat
in both of my hearts
with my feet in the mud and my head in the stars
my head in the stars
as nothing is written
on the pages ahead
let's start a story we haven't heard yet
we haven't heard yet
we can go
our feet create the road
if only we go
our feet create the road
the pages are empty
the pen's in our hand
mine is a story we cannot skip to the end
we cannot skip to the end
all we can do is go
our feet create the road
if only we go
our feet create the road
and it will be
it will be where it will be
it will be where it will be
it will be where we are

As Far As My Feet
there's a shape of things to come
silhouetted against the rising sun
and in that sudden break of dawn
I know exactly what I want
looking back I can't retrace
when the pieces quitely fell right into place
but in that sudden break of dawn
I know just where to run
as far as my feet will carry me
and further than that
as far as my feet will carry me
I will
the rain has washed the head
free of worries and regret
free of history and weight
and when I close my eyes I see
exactly where I want to be
as far as my feet will carry me
and further than that
as far as my feet will carry me
I will

Deny
let's go
to the deep end of my stereo
let's go and let us chase
a smile of relief on your face
come with me when I run
and chase the setting sun
until it's gone
deny it
the truth is wrong
at least as long as you
deny it
maybe you can fly
if you deny that you cannot
the rain
will remind me that it is in vain
but I'm putting sand on sand
'til it comes and I start it again
but if you're with me we could mess
with the forces that cause all the mess
unimpressed
deny it
the truth is wrong
at least as long as you
deny it
maybe you can fly
if you deny

King's Cross

I can forecast the change of the traffic lights
I've been watching them for quite some time
the barista knows my name by know
and I can recite the entire newspaper line by line
meet me at king's cross
I'll be waiting for you
meet me there because
this is our final straw
meet me at king's cross
I'll be waiting until starbucks kicks me out
it's funny how people sometimes
all look a little, just a little the same
I can hardly tell how many times
I spotted you in one of the coats walking there in the rain
there in the rain
they all look the same
meet me at king's cross
I'll be waiting for you
meet me there because
this is our final straw
meet me at king's cross
I'll be waiting until starbucks kicks me out

Raise Your Wine
We carry the weight of our words and our bodies
we carry concerns about karma and credit card bills
the tales of our childhood revealed a lack of logic
and neither of us is a rockstar or in space
it's safe to agree this ain't how we thought it'd be
is it just me or have i once been stronger
did certain things come easier to me
there's a pain in my back i can't deny much longer
tell me is this the way it is going to be
but tomorow can wait if we dance until eight...
raise your wine
one last time
and then we will have cheap champagne
raise you wine
one last time
it will never again be the same
and i'll raise my cup before we give in and grow up
we'll call up our friends, our sisters and our brothers
we'll call up our partners in crime and other affairs
bring a drink of your choice and maybe bring some others
and we'll throw our worries like confetti in the air
for tomorrow can wait, we will dance until eight
raise your wine
one last time
and then we will have cheap champagne
raise you wine
one last time
it will never again be the same
and i'll raise my cup before we give in and grow up
