Second To Last
03:45

It seems to me that this is perfect
I'd like the memories to remain
But just like everything, too easily
Memories fade and they can change
Now there's not a second to lose
So hold that pose a little longer
Like a detonated fuse, time is running fast
So hold it right there, I want this second to last
Names of places and peoples faces
Vanished and lost without a trace and
Sights and sounds and touch and tastes
Memories replaced by empty spaces
Come back to me
Come back to me
Why won't it come back to me
There's not a second to lose
So hold that pose a little longer
Like a detonated fuse, time is running fast
So hold it right there, I want this second to last

Break Up Break Down

I've never known what words to say
To articulate these thoughts inside my brain
Every day. Words fail me every day
So I'm quite comfortable to stay
Here inside this silent cage
[So I sit by your side, this is me trying, you can't help but feel awkward when I'm being so quiet, maybe you're right, maybe I'm wrong, maybe it'd be easier if I was alone]
So is this the way that it should be?
Not from what I've seen in movies and TV
Everyone together and happy, except the villains
Alone and lonely
I'm not the villain though, surely?
Not in my own story...

White Whale
05:15
|

Relax, I'm not in it for the kill.
I don't chase it for the hunt but for the thrill.
If I could catch one glimpse I would die happy
Just to know that it truly exists...
You don't need to understand why I live this way
I could spend my whole life searching for that whale.
Just to se it emerge from the cold dark waves
To not even try would be the same as to fail.
Set sail!
Looking for that white whale

In Particular

Something in particular
A flicker in the nucleus
A spark ignites your consciousness
It's something in particular
What is it in particular that sets us all apart?
The decision of division happens without thinking
We split apart forever cellularly
Fractured to perfection, seeking reconnection
Looking for the answer in a hand-held screen
How peculiar it is to be
A cluster of atoms with thoughts and feelings
Understanding that you're temporary
Helpless and humble in the swirl of infinity.
Something in particular
A flicker in the nucleus
Cells divide and conquer, yes
A spark ignites your consciousness
Something in particular
Elements of what you are
Born inside a distant star
Something in particular

Forever

If you had said yes I'd dress just to impress you everyday
I'd shave my face, appreciate your grace, and love you always
And when the last star surrenders to the light of dawn
I'd be there girl, to infinity and beyond
'Cos I don't think it's a game
And I think you're worth the wait
So when you feel the same
Here I am -- Forever, I am.
So if you've got some time you know I'd kind of like to spend it with you
Walking outside in the twilight, maybe a dinner for two.
I'd be the best you'd ever wished for, the best you'd ever had
This means something, this is important.
'Cos I don't think it's a game
And I think you're worth the wait
So when you feel the same
Here I am -- Forever, I am.

Over The Moon

We were together and I was happy
We broke apart Honey, I was sad
But ain't no use in feeling low
When I remember what we had.
The song that we wrote, it hit every note
Now I'm whistling a different tune
So if you want me, I'm right where you left me
Over the moon.
Nobody ever said it was easy
Everybody knows that love can be hard
Wish I may and try I might
But it just wasn't in the cards
The club that we made girl we had it in spades
But hearts and diamonds can be so cruel
So if you need me, I'm right where you left me
Over the moon.
The song that we wrote, yeah it hit every note
Now I'm whistling a different tune
So if you want me, I'm right where you left me
Over the moon
