Agitated honeybees
They're whirring all around my head
Don't believe what you can't see
Or you might disturb the nest
I wanna sell my soul
Don't need it anymore
Just gotta swat these demons away
Until my arms are sore
Until my arms get sore
I love you all the time
Can't get you outta my mind
We're gonna break all the rules and you'll be my partner in crime
I wanna chase my dreams
I wanna yell and scream
It's not enough to not be a cog in the machine
I gotta burn down the whole damn thing
Square shaped peg in a heart shaped hole
I'm going broke again buying back my soul
You know
That I'll be okay
I wouldn't have it any other way
Don't you walk these streets alone
I'm gonna stick behind just to walk you home
You know
That's what I'm gonna do
But only if you want me to

’m feeling kinda strange
Is this some big game?
There’s something I don’t know
But if I make it through the night I’ll be by your side
We were seventeen, we were chasing our dreams
You were chasing me, I was being naive
But now I see
I’m feeling kinda strange
Is this some big game?
There’s something I don’t know
But if I make it through the night I’ll be by your side
And when it gets colder I’ll be waiting for you
And when I get older I’ll be praying for you
You don’t know what you do
And if you really love me why am I sleeping alone?
Why don't you throw me a bone
And if you really love me why am I sleeping alone?
Why don't you throw me a bone

Can't find my friends
And now I'm all alone again
Nevermind, I'll just pretend
I sit around
and watch the sunlight leak inside
I've not a thing unless you're right here by my side
I sit alone in bed
And replay all my fantasies again
We always have a lovely time inside my head
Sitting on the sidelines
Watching like a shadow in the night
And I sit here waiting for
The day when I'll be yours and you'll be mine
I'm still growing into my brain
Find it hard just staying sane
I'm still growing into my brain
Don't want my life to stay the same
Another year
My heart beats loud enough to hear
Gets even louder when you're near
I'm coming down
My heart beats at the speed of sound
Beats even faster still whenever you're around
Let's move way out West
And get a house beneath the desert stars
Or somewhere equally as far
And we'll get older still
And waste we away and that will be the end
And I'll stay hidden on the sidelines and
Replay it all again
I'm still growing into my brain
Find it hard just staying sane
I'm still growing into my brain
Don't want my life to stay the same

Pipe dreams
Little useless fantasies
A funeral inside my brain
Lead boots
Sinking deep into my head
I think I've lost my mind again
Stop me if you've heard this one before
Cruising altitude ain't high enough
Just blast me right into the sun
And I'll float --- drift up high into the clouds
Don't think I'm ever coming down
There I go
Talking 'bout myself again
And I'm getting lighter
I'm floating higher
I'm far away
It's getting harder
To stay awake for the entire day
I'm digging my own grave
A quiet place to lay
Don't feel like leaving so I thinking that I'm here to stay
But I just need someone to tell me it'll be ok
Just gotta wait until my head comes down from outer space
And then I'll save the day
Rewrite the script to say
That I got dreams to chase and catch before they fly away
And I'll get better I swear
Yeah I'll get better I swear
I am the spectator; I'm not always fully there
So help me find myself cause I can't find me anywhere
And all I have is my thoughts
I am the narrator but I don't control the plot
I'm going through the motions hoping that nobody knows
I am the actor and I hope that you enjoy the show

Center stage
Drift asleep
The fire of our lives is fading out before our eyes
So won't you burn out next me
Born in blood
Born to die
Nothing matters anymore
Unless you’re by my side
I’ll be there when you close your eyes
We're flying closer to the sun
Wash ashore
Take my hand
Cause I want you and nothing more
Let's sail the seven seas and
Let's explore uncharted lands
The world is ours
That I'm sure
Just kicking anthills in the sun
Rewind back to the days when we were young and insecure
We're flying closer to the sun
Do you really want change?
Do you *really* want it?
Or, and this is the brutal question,
Do you just want things to change a little bit?
You carry on living in a nice world
Where you tinker with it
That's the key question
But you can't just sit there forever worrying about big ideas
Because there are millions of people out there who do want change
And the key thing is, they feel they've got nothing to lose
We ain't got no future honey
We ain't got no future left at all
Nothing's gonna save us this time
Nothing's gonna catch us when we fall
We ain't got no future darlin'
I think we're growing up just way too fast
We try to stop the days from passing by
Cause everything was better in the past
We ain't got no future honey
We ain't got no future left at all
No one's gonna save us this time
Nobody’s gonna catch us when we fall
We ain't got no future darlin'
Nothing’s ever gonna stay the same again
The outside world is our enemy
And imma blow it up till the very end
