Regret hits like a tide turning 'round Can't ignore it for long, I've found As I sit here and stare at your contact - the button to call Yeah, the back and forth sways me Can't seem to agree in my own head on which way to go Do you even want to see me? Don't really know where I stand And I know I've fucked up Now the pain is abrupt And I wish I could tell you the lot Maybe tonight I'll call you And we'll talk this through And the dumb decisions I've made will turn with the tide And I'll hear the sound of your voice with me again (Turn with the tide, turn with the tide, turn with the tide) Desire hits like a tide turning 'round Can't ignore it for long, I've found 'Cause lately I've been craving you like never before Yeah the back and forth sways me Can't seem to agree. Maybe I should just let you go Do you even want to see me? Don't really know where I stand And I know I've fucked up Now the pain is abrupt And I wish I could tell you the lot Maybe tonight I'll call you And we'll talk this through And the dumb decisions I've made will turn with the tide And I'll hear the sound of your voice with me again Do you feel this way? Oh, I don't understand Ooh, I should have known better Please just take my hand I'm scared to talk to you Scared to talk this through Please let our story not end but turn with the tide And I'll hearth sound of your voice... Do you even want to see me? (Do you feel this way? Oh) Don't really know where I stand (I don't understand) And I know I've fucked up (Ooh, I should have known better) Now the pain is abrupt And I wish I could tell you the lot (Please just take my hand) Maybe tonight I'll call you (I'm scared to talk to you) And we'll talk this through (Scared to talk this through) And the dumb decisions I've made will turn with the tide (Please let our stay not end but turn with the tide) And I'll hear the sound of your voice with me again oooh (Turn with the tide) With me again oooh (Turn with the tide) With me again oooh (Turn with the tide) Maybe tonight I'll call you after my blood is boiling Or maybe I'll just wait and burn this out

This hunger, this craving for... This hunger isn't real Desire and dread Desire and fire Turning, tumbling, falling I'm not coming back Turning, tumbling, falling Off the track Feeling is living Stumbling and trying to Make up your mind when you know that you can't see Life has no forecast Trying to run fast Turning and Tumbling and Falling and Failing, oh Can't exactly say what's not working for me Nothing's falling into to place or running free Turning, tumbling, falling I'm not coming back Turning, tumbling, falling Off the tracks Feeling is living Stumbling and trying to Make up your mind when you know that you can't see Life has no forecast Trying to run fast Turning and Tumbling and Falling and Failing, oh Feeling is living Stumbling and trying to Make up your mind when you know that you can't see Life has no forecast Trying to run fast Turning and Tumbling and Falling and Failing and Feeling is living Stumbling and trying to Make up your mind when you know that you can't see Life has no forecast Trying to run fast Turning and Tumbling and Falling and Failing, oh Turning and Tumbling and Falling and Failing, oh Turning and Tumbling and Falling and Failing, oh

Why can't you be mean? Everything's gone askew If you were mean I wouldn't be here trying not to like like you Why are you so fun? It’d be easier if you weren't This isn't something I want to go through And I don't want to have feelings for you But I can feel it, rising in my chest Like gravity pulling me down I can feel it, even though you can't And I'm letting myself down by thinking about you But I can feel it, even though you can't Why am I catching feelings? I'm caught in your current, No matter what I do Til' I'm washed up here on the shore, trying not to like you Why can't you just like me? You now see me as a friend I wish I made you feel something else But trying to change someone never helps But I can feel it, rising in my chest Like gravity pulling me down I can feel it, even though you can't And I’m letting myself down by thinking about you But I can feel it, even though you can't I wish you didn't distract me Wish it wasn't true It's clear I'm not distracting to you Kinda wish you knew Wish you felt it too But it’s clear I can't follow this through Yet still, I can feel it rising in my chest Like gravity pulling me straight down I can feel it but I know you can't And I'm letting myself down 'Cause I keep thinking about you But I can't help it ‘cause I can feel it But I know you can't You can’t Oooh, but I swish you could

Focus 03:29
I can't take this anymore Every wolf is at my doorstep Take me away Somewhere to stay Believe me, I'm not here to play All my cards are on the floor He can't see me here at all yet He's closer now I don't know how Now it's over, take a bow Focus, focus, don't let go Argument becomes my foe Liar, liar, I'm on fire Flames will grow This is I know But I can never let go Running faster Closing in I need to get a hold Or I won't ever win He can't see what we could be Trapped for all eternity I try to play this game But it's always the same, oh Sticks and stones may break my bones But words, they hurt me so bad Focus, focus, don't let go Argument becomes my foe Liar, liar, I'm on fire Flames will grow This is I know But I can never... Ooh, I can never let go, oh, oh

All of This 05:05
Oh I, I had a dream about you And you told me that you struggled through the day Oh I, I wanted to tell you I wanted to help But you always seemed to shy away And I could tell you were scared but I knew that I would stay And even though you were scared, you told me anyway I told you about the troubles under the sun Until you knew you weren't the only one And I told you how I struggled through the day But even though I told you the things I know There were a lot of things that I didn't show Because I pushed you away when you didn't want me to go All of this, I want all of this, I wanna tell you all about my loneliness And the way I miss your face more than I should. But all of this, we're not living this And now as I lie here I my bed, I'm awake now, and it was only in my head. You were here, in my dream about you And we talked about our struggles through the day I wanted to hug you, to tell you that I miss you But I didn't because you might not feel this way I know you did once upon a time But that was then, and now the turn is mine But even though you told me it was nice to talk There was something, in the way you were guarded that said I made you feel nervous, yeah I did. I didn't know if you still felt this, And that's the reason why Or if you wanted me gone now, If you wanted to say goodbye All of this, I want all of this, I wanna tell you all about my loneliness And the way I miss your face more than I should. But all of this, we're not living this And now as I lie here I my bed, I'm awake now, and it was only in my head. I'm awake now, and it was only in my head. Then I dreamed that we started to reconnect, And we talked like before when we were friends. And I almost burst open, Told you how I felt. That I'd changed my mind, that I wanted more. That now I was sure... But you drifted away and I washed up on the shore. And you weren't standing there beside me anymore. All of this, I want all of this, I wanna tell you all about my loneliness And the way I miss your face more than I should. But all of this, we're not living this And now as I lie here I my bed, I'm awake now, and it was only in my head. Yeah I’m awake now, and it was only in my head. And I wish I could tell you everything I said. I still don't know if you still feel this, And that's the reason why Or if you want me gone now, If you wanna say goodbye.

Circles 03:45
Why can’t I just let you go? I can’t wait forever, but maybe time’s just going slow They say there's plenty of fish in the sea And they say that there's always another "we" But I've got a gut feeling That there's a ceiling that can't be broken through That we'll keep coming back And we'll just have a knack for sticking like superglue I want to believe this is over And I want to believe I don't care moreover But every time I think that we've parted Something hooks me in and I'm back where I started So tell me then, do you truly believe that we won't go in circles again? I know I met you in high school And the likely hood of this story's survival Is little to none, so you can't be the one But I can't help but think we're not done. Not yet ‘cause 'Cause I've got a gut feeling That there's a ceiling that can't be broken through That we'll keep coming back And we'll just have a knack for sticking like superglue I want to believe this is over And I want to believe I don't care moreover But every time I get close to thinking we've parted Something hooks me and I'm back where I started So tell me then, do you truly believe that we won't go in circles again? Ooh ooh oooh Ooh ooh oooh I want to believe this is over And I want to believe I don't care moreover But every time I get close to thinking we've parted Something hooks me and I'm back where I started I want to believe this is over And I want to believe you don't care moreover But every time I think that we've parted Something hooks me and I'm back where I started So tell me then, do you truly believe that we won't go in circles again? Because I can't truly believe we won't go in circles again And somehow I don't, I just can't see how we'll be content as friends I can't believe this is the end
