RUSTY DREAMS

You’re sleeping on rusty dreams

Old photographs that were never as they seemed

You’re trying to find a key to a door unlocked

Searching for answers you already got

 

And I’m dancing on my own but at least I’m dancing on my own two feet

 

Sweet rain pouring on this concrete road

Stories of sadness start to unfold

Little lies in the back of your mind creeping in

Everybody’s patience is running thin

 

Now I’m dancing on my own

There’s people everywhere but I’m dancing on my own

And I’m dancing on my own

but at least I’m dancing on my own two feet

 

Entertaining those thoughts, meditating on your past only making the pain of your memories last, last (X2)

 

And you're pushing everybody away but expecting them to stay (X4)

 

YOU NEVER

I saw you over there so I ran 
I saw you straight ahead so I ran 

 

Cause you belong in my past 

 

You never came through for me, You never 
You never came through for me, You never 

 

I saw you over there so I ran 
I saw you straight ahead so I ran 

 

Cause you belong in my past

 

You never came through for me, You never 
You never came through for me, You never


This heart of mine cant take it this time (X2) 
Do you remember that time you broke this heart of mine? 

Cause you belong in my past

You never came through for me, You never 
You never came through for me, You never
 

PERFECT DELUSION

In my head you were perfect 
That when I saw you, you weren’t anything less 
It was so nice to finally meet you 
That I was happy to give you my heart 

 

You were perfect to me (X4)

 

Every human will disappoint you 
If you expect more from them then yourself 
And the person in my head made no mistakes 
That when I got to know you there were sharks swimming in the lakes 

 

You seemed perfect to me (X4)


Na na (repeat) 
ooh (repeat) 

 
But I loved you I loved you 
I loved you I loved you 
Oh yeah I loved you I loved you 

 

You seemed perfect to me (X3)
You seemed perfectly harmless to me 
 

 

HEAR ME DROWN

Can I say that I’m done?

I’ve been burnt by this sun

I have fallen down

I’ve been beaten by my doubts

 

Where are you now?

Can you hear me drown? (X2)

 

Can I say I need help?

Feels like no one hears me when I yell

I have fallen down

I’ve been beaten by my doubts

 

Where are you now?

Can you hear me drown? (X2)

 

Where are you now? (X4)

 

Where are you now?

Can you hear me drown? (X2)
