  LYRICS

  Days Go By   Headlight Waves   Absence   Brake
  Coming Up   The Weight   Zia   Somebody Like You   I Am  

  DAYS GO BY
 
  The deal and the heat under the lights
  All over they leave us hypnotized
  But we wont be tamed
  All that were gonna take
 
  Chorus
  All out bring me the new high
  Ill burn - Ill even die
  Ill go right into the eye
  As days go by
  Days go By
 
  Outside your window
  All that the eye knows
  Wanna be liked
  Well behaved
  Wont get in our way
  Ill go until they lock
  Me away
 
  Chorus
 
  Chorus x3
 

  HEADLIGHT WAVES
 
  Oh the headlight waves
  And the radio too
  As patrons complain
  Of all that they do
  Oh the limitless ways
  Of the wars that they wage
  As the few and far between us
  Descends upon this room
  we come away
 
  Prechorus
  But hold on
  thus
  It wont be long
  And hold on
  thus
  It wont be long
 
  See the moments passed
  But they sometimes resume
  Oh the jealously the feed us
  Consumes
  And our bellies begin to ache
  As the need in them grows
  We come away
 
  Prechorus
 
  Chorus
  Hold on, hold on
  Cause I know I know I know
  You come like waves
  Into this darkened light
  You light the way
  And all of the ways the fade
  You shine, you shine
 
  Prechorus
  Chorus
 
  Come again, come away
  Higher than this
 

  ABSENCE
 
  Do you see me
  I am wilted and cold
  Do you see how my skin is drying out
 
  Do you wake up
  And your body is numb
  Do you wait for someone to ring you out
 
  Chorus
  Its an absence this
  Its a weightlessness
  Its a vapor thats intoxicating
  We are wasting time
  On the borderline
  We are losing this
  While we are waiting
 
  Do you sip your glass
  And youre drifting away
  And you cant make out what they are trying to say
 
  Do you count the days
  And you cant let go
  And you wonder why you are moving so slow
 
  Do you reach to scream
  But you only breathe
  And somehow its never quite enough
 
  Chorus
 
  We have been here before
  Do you wonder what we are doing this for
 
  While we, we wait for this
  While we, we wait for this
  While we, we wait for this
  While
 
  Chorus x2
 

  BRAKE
 
  Wait
  Well you see yourself and no one knows your name
  You call it out
  But they, they never came
  All that you do
  Always the same
  Do you see your fighting for
 
  What you want wont come for you
  All the ways you tell them too
  All they ways that you
  Build them up only to
 
  Chorus
  Brake
  Brake
  Break them down
  No one to wait for it
 
  Embrace
  How you found yourself broken and in this space
  Your courage was absurd
  Isnt that your way
  The sound in your throat
  Did not escape
  Its never to be heard
 
  What you want wont come for you
  All the ways you tell them to
  All the ways that you wait for wait for wait
  But my heart wont
  My heart wont wait
  As you build them up only to
 
  Chorus
 
  I wanted you
  To be more
  Much more than you are
  I wanted you
  Nothing more
  For all that you are
  So dont
 
  Chorus x2
 

  COMING UP
 
  Everybody has a little hope to sell
  And hope is coming fast
  Everybody has there own way to make it
 
  Why dont you take your time
  And take it while you can
  Why dont you have more faith in faith
 
  You know Im not that girl, Im not at all
  Im not what I seem
  And if I made up my mind youd know it
 
  My hands are bound and bought, theyve had it all
  More than their worth
  I think its time I let it all just fade
 
  Chorus
  Im coming up faster then I ever have before
  I cant hold my breath
  Im coming up faster than I ever have before
  And this time I might explode
 
  There is a sound that beats it gravitates
  Swallows me whole
  It overtakes me when I sleep
 
  And in this dream I had
  I thought I saw the constellations grow
  Everyone dreams from time to time
 
  Chorus
 
  I free my hands but Im filling in
  From one end to another begins again
  I give myself, Im giving in
  Its been mine all along
 
  Chorus
  Im coming up faster
  Im coming up faster
  You know this time I might explode
  Im coming up faster
 

  THE WEIGHT
 
  I see the way inside
  Everything seems so dark and ill defined
  Maybe youd forgive me
  Or is this what you wanted to be
 
  All alone you wont move
  All these fevers will get to you
  All we have to loose
  As it makes its way
  Into this room
  And all through
  I feel
 
  Chorus
  I feel the weight x3
 
  Wasnt it you who said
  That we would live young and dignified
  Is this how its supposed to be
  Cause think of all we could be
 
  And I hear them when they talk
  I wish you could be more
  Remember when you were happy
  And is this is really happening
 
  All the flowers we knew
  Ah never did bloom
  And nothing renewed
  As it makes its way
  Into this room
  All all through
  I Feel
 
  Chorus
 
  Dont you know who you are
  Ah wont you let me save you
  Ten years fallen so far
  Come back to me
 
  All alone in your room
  All these fevers will get to you
  All alone you wont move
  As it makes its way
 
  Into this room
  And after you move
  Into this room
  And after you move
  I feel
 

  ZIA
 
  Its the most peculiar thing
  suddenly youre not
  you breathed in and out of life
  and into the earth again
  and the more I know, Ill ever understand
  this something of this life
  Whered you go light
  Whered you go away
 
  Chorus
  And these are the ways you light
  The beauty created and left behind
  Sing to me zia one last time
  The story of your life, life time
  And into the earth
 
  And the morning that it came
  I heard for the first time
  The beauty of your voice and all the change
  That one day takes all of us
  Did you make it there
  Did you hope for something better for us
  And what remains
  Is the love that you gave you gave
 
  Chorus
 
  These are the ways that you light
  The beauty that shapes the changing sky
  These are the ways that you light
  And into the earth, the sands of time
 
  Zia, for your dreams and good intentions
  Zia, for the millions awake
  Zia, for the life that I will live without you
  Zia, for the ways
 

  SOMEBODY LIKE YOU
 
  She was
  The every girl
  Who wants somebody like you
  She sleepwalks hours of every day
  To have somebody like you
  And idle hands and idle thoughts
  And traces of copper
  That fill her head so slow
  And make her feel
  She wants somebody like you
 
  Chorus
  But her heart grows heavier
  And she still cant sleep at night
  As the break in her breeds
  Dont wanna want somebody like you
  And youll only tear her apart
 
  She was
  The every girl
  Shes lost in between
  She sees the world through a colored haze
  She makes you more than what you seem
  Ooh it makes her feel
  She wants somebody like you
  To have to hold
  In a room where no one knows
 
  Chorus
 
  Dont wanna want somebody like you
  Dont wanna want somebody like you
 
  Somebody like you
  Somebody like you
 
  And this girl must find her place
  Place in time
  But you confuse you fill this space
  But you can not feel this
 
  You are not here, this is not real
  Dont wanna want some body like you
  (x4)
 

  I AM
 
  Im a million miles away
  Im half of whole
  And I cant find my way back home
  I walk between lines
  I blend into no one no where
  No place youll find me there
 
  Im the best you never had
  You never really did know me
  Not in this world
  But in a parallel place in space
  We came of age as one
  In the recess of my mind
  Youre the best I never had
  I never really did know you
  Please forgive me I fell through
 
  Chorus
  I am what I am
  Cant live with all this
  Cant fake the way I feel
  When courage will fall through
  I am what I am
  With a hand between my fist
  Cant make the winter real
  So take me as I fall through
 
  And oceans divide
  All the dreams we left behind
  All the cupboards have been opened
  Theres nothing left to find
  I close my eyes
  You fade in to no one no where
  Your face just disappears
 
  Chorus
 
  So take me as I am
  as I am
  take me as I am
  as I am
 
  Chorus
