be the one who comes around
when I'm feeling down
and the one who says I'm right
when you know I'm wrong
and it's always gonna be this way
from our birth until our dying day
and it's always gonna be this fun
in the sun
no, no
we'll never feel the same
no, no
we cannot help but change
be the sun that breaks the day
when i live in night
and the one who pulls me out
when the end's in sight

The Misery
03:24

it's time that you come over
and sit and talk with me
don't put aside your feelings
about what has come to be
this thing that you've experienced
happens to everyone
you feel down for a while
but you're gonna get back up
you're gonna get back up
quiet your mind
and the answers will follow
the pain will subside
quiet your mind
and the answers will follow
the pain will subside
the misery is over
don't think about who judges you
find strength from the inside
for when you search your feelings
that's the only thing you can rely
you think it's something mystical
that happens when you cry
but really it's just pain
falling from your eyes
falling from your eyes

The Optimist
04:20
|
|

I spend my time
painting over the imperfections
while the walls crumble underneath
speculating the implications
of my imploding beliefs
imploding beliefs
try, try, try,
to come out unscathed
try to remain the optimist
in this war we're always gonna miss
try to remain the optimist
waterfall ran dry
the grass grew high with great depression
while the roots died underneath
speculating the implications
of your growing misery
try, try, try
to come out unscathed
try to remain the optimist
in this war we're always gonna miss
try to remain the optimist
the trees will die
and all this falling down around me
has got me feeling alone
the trees will grow and all this
coming up around me has got me
saying hello
try to remain the optimist
in this war we're always gonna miss
try to remain the optimist

You Are The Car

you are the car
and I am the road
I'll get you there
so just drive me home
we're gonna see
we're gonna feel
we're gonna know
what it's like
to fly
we're gonna break
from the ground
the stars as our sky
you are the sea
and I am a boat
whitecaps ahead
and we're crashing headlong
we're gonna see
we're gonna feel
we're gonna know
what it's like
to fly
we're gonna break
from the ground
the stars as our sky
we've got the key
nobody knows how
we fly so high
soaring above the clouds
