WHO WE ARE

Written by Harry J Hart & Tim Goodburn

ISCR: AUBEC2134558

 

Love is blind but I see the end

Too much skin to begin again

Every choice, every penny spent

It’s getting hard to try and pretend

 

That everything’s gotta stay afloat

Too much blood to just let it go

Could I swim, would I ever know?

Would I drown if I burned this boat?

 

Pressing down on my soul

Trying to keep the control

 

I don’t like where you’re going

I pray that I’ll find you there

I can’t stop it coming

I’m bracing for the end

I don’t know how this happened

How did we fall apart?

I can’t stop this coming

It’s only who we are

 

I think I’m lost, wanna start again

How to make out the difference

Hard to live in the ignorance

Talkin love when it doesn’t make sense

My sight is fine, but you blur the lines

No more places for you to hide

The truth is covered in white lies

I see the fear inside your eyes

 

Pressing down your soul

Tryin to keep the control

 

I don’t like where you’re going

I pray that I’ll find you there

I can’t stop it coming

I’m bracing for the end

I don’t know how this happened

How did we fall apart?

I can’t stop this coming

It’s only who we are

 

We can’t escape

this anymore

Can’t avoid the downfall

No longer safe at all.

 

We can’t escape

this anymore

Can’t avoid the downfall

No longer safe at all.

 

I don’t like where you’re going

I pray that I’ll find you there

I can’t stop it coming

I’m bracing for the end

I don’t know how this happened

How did we fall apart?

I can’t stop this coming

It’s only who we are

 

I don’t like where you’re going

I pray that I’ll find you there

I can’t stop it coming

I’m bracing for the end

I don’t know how this happened

How did we fall apart?

I can’t stop this coming

It’s only who we are

 

 

NO GOODBYE

Written by Harry J Hart

ISCR: AUBEC2155891

​

Why are we sitting in the dark?

Sitting in the dark

Sitting in the dark

What’s this all about?

 

What are we scared to talk about?

Scared to talk about

Scared to talk about

Are you really here?

 

Sometimes I get cold

I thought you should know

You’re the reason it’s all gone south

Where did you go with no goodbye?

 

I gotta go

Tell me what’s this all about?

Don’t wanna know

Your heart don’t fit in my hand anymore

 

Why are we taking steps back?

Taking steps back

Taking steps back

How did we end up here?

 

I gotta give myself time

Give myself time

Give myself time

To sort this out

 

I know you’ve gone cold

I want you to know

That you’ve burned this bridge right down

Why did you go with no goodbye?

Goodbye

Why did you go with no goodbye?

Why did you go with no goodbye?

Why did you go with no goodbye?

Why did you go with no goodbye?

 

I gotta go

Tell me what’s this all about

Why did you go with no goodbye?

Don’t wanna know

Your heart don’t fit in my hand at all

I gotta go

Why did you go with no goodbye?

Tell me what’s this all about

Why did you go with no goodbye?

Don’t wanna know

Why did you go with no goodbye?

Your heart don’t fit in my hand anymore

Why did you go with no goodbye?

 

 

 

COME BACK DOWN

Written by Harry J Hart

ISCR: AUBEC2155889

​

These days are getting colder

I just want to go back home right now

Need you to come back down

I don’t know how to process

What I’m thinking…What I’m feeling

 

There’s nothing in your eyes again

There’s nothing in your eyes again

 

When you feel like coming down

I’ll be waiting here for you

Know that I will stand my ground

Till you come back down

 

My heart is breaking, and I can’t seem to feel this feeling

There’s nothing in your eyes again

There’s nothing in your eyes again

 

When you feel like coming down

I’ll be waiting here for you

Know that I will stand my ground

Till you come back down (Do you know the way)

 

Till you come back down (Do you know the way)

Till you come back down (Do you know the way)

Till you come back down (Do you know the way)

When you feel like coming down (Do you know the way)

Know that I will stand my ground (Do you know the way)

Till you come back down (Do you know the way)

Till you come back down (Do you know the way)

Till you come back down

STAY

Written by Harry J Hart & Joel Myles

ISCR: AUBEC2155890

​

Asleep for so long

Always knew what went so wrong

With me and you

Its times just like these

We wear our hearts on our sleeves

And where do we go

Where will it take us on this road

 

We need to disrupt old promises

With some new trust

The space you move through

The things that you say

Every word that I hold onto

So why should I stay

Will you take me far from this place?

 

Holding on for my life

Let’s stop wasting our time

I won’t let you out of my sight

How did we get so high?

Holding on for my life

Let’s stop wasting our time

I won’t let you out of my sight

How did we get so high?

 

Following my mind

Through the clouds

Dizzying heights in a weightless sound

I need to know

Is this where we anchor

 

Its times just like these

We wear our hearts on our sleeves

So why don’t we stay

Through whatever it takes

 

Holding on for my life

Let’s stop wasting our time

I won’t let you out of my sight

How did we get so high?

Holding on for my life

Let’s stop wasting our time

I won’t let you out of my sight

How did we get so high?

 

Can we talk it out?

Can we not get out?

Can we talk it out?

Can we not get out?

Should I stay?

 

Can we talk it out?

Can we not get out?

Can we talk it out?

Can we not get out?

Should I stay?

Can we talk it out?

Can we not get out?

Can we talk it out?

Can we not get out?

Should I stay?

Can we talk it out?

Can we not get out?

Can we talk it out?

Can we not get out?

 

Holding on for my life

Let’s stop wasting our time

I won’t let you out of my sight

How did we get so high?

Holding on for my life

Let’s stop wasting our time

I won’t let you out of my sight

How did we get so…

How do we get so high?

 

Let’s stop wasting our time

I won’t let you out of my sight

How do we get so high?

 

Holding on for my life

Let’s stop wasting our time

I won’t let you out of my sight

How did we get so high?

MAKE IT EASY

Written by Harry J Hart & Jake Cropley

Ooooh

Two years six months

Since you looked my way

It felt so long

My heart it stopped

when you touched my face

It felt so strong

 

Thought this was good for me

Thought this was good for you

 

You never try to save me

And I’ve been hurting lately

You didn’t want to leave me

But you make it easy

 

I only try to please ya

But you look right through the picture

I didn’t want to leave ya

But you make it easy (make it easy)

 

Two weeks since you last

Touched my face

Feels like so long

This house we built an empty space

It feels so wrong

 

Don’t think it’s good for me

Don’t think it’s good for you

Should we really see this through?

 

Ooooh

You never try to save me

And I’ve been hurting lately

You didn’t want to leave me

But you make it easy

 

I only try to please ya

But you look right through the picture

I didn’t want to leave ya

But you make it easy (make it easy)

Make it easy

Make it easy

 

(ooooh

Felt it so strong)

 

Two years six months

Since you looked my way

Felt it so strong

My heart it stopped

 

Don’t think it’s good for me

Don’t think it’s good for you

Should we really see this through?

Ooooh

You never try to save me

I’ve been hurting lately

You Didn’t want to leave me

But you make it easy

I only try to please you but

you look right though the picture

Didn’t want to leave you

But you make it easy

Make it easy

Make it easy

Make it easy

 

 

IT CALLS OUT

Written by Harry J Hart

ISCR: AUBEC2031747

​

A dark shadow stalks behind me
I see it out the corner of my eyes
I try to scream but I just can't speak

It’s closing in on me,

It’s closing in on my soul,
It's closing in on my soul

It calls out
Ah-ooooo
It calls out
Ah-ooooo
It calls out
Ah-ooooo
It calls out
Ah-ooooo

I need to find my way out of here
I can't find an exit sign
Houdini get me out of here
I'm trapped up in my own mind

It calls out
Ah-ooooo
It calls out
Ah-ooooo
It calls out
Ah-ooooo
It calls out
Ah-ooooo

 

It’s holding me

I can’t breathe

It’s closing in on me,

It’s closing in on my soul,

 

It’s closing in on my soul

It calls out
Ah-ooooo
It calls out
Ah-ooooo
It calls out
Ah-ooooo
It calls out
Ah-ooooo
