Run Wild

It started with a blind leap, mad dashing through the streets, escaping off to the skies
It ended with a dig deep, dead last chance believing, racing into the night
Itās been a long time since the last time that I let you know
Where Iāve been toās nothing like youāve ever seen before
Itās a long, long story full of curses and glory, someday Iām gonna share it right
Been a long, long journey, but Iām not in a hurry, ācause I never want to say goodbye
It started with a blind leap, mad dashing through the streets, escaping off to the skies
It ended with a dig deep, dead last chance believing, racing into the night
And now we run wild
Yeah, now we run wild
Been a minute since I checked in with reality
All my misfits making mischief on the daily
Itās a long, long story, but thereās no need to worry. For right now, I want it allā¦
It started with a blind leap, mad dashing through the streets, escaping off to the skies
It ended with a dig deep, dead last chance believing, racing into the night
And now we run wild
And now we run wild
Where I can be anything I wanna be, I wanna be
And you could be anything you wanna be, just wait and see
It started with a walk past, cold glance, and then a secret past that I could never know
It ended with a one dance, two hands on the doorstep, reaching in and leaning close
It started with a blind leap, mad dashing through the streets, escaping off to the skies
It ended with a dig deep, dead last chance believing, racing into the night
And now we run wild
Yeah, now we run wild

Break For It
02:52

I was burning through all of my years
Eyes low, tooth in someone elseās gear
You were everything they warned about
And I tried to be an island, but I canāt deny it, whenever you come around, you got me like...
Sneaking out in the midnight hour
Question every higher power
(Break for it, break for it)
Tell you, there aināt nothing that I wouldnāt break for it
Dreaming when I should concentrate
Every rule on every page
(Break for it, break for it)
Tell you, there aināt nothing that I wouldnāt break for it
I was told that I had to earn my part
Cool smile, god forbid you drop your guard
You were, everything I wanted most, ohā¦
Wild in abandon, never could imagine, whenever weāre standing close you got me like...
Sneaking out in the midnight hour
Question every higher power
(Break for it, break for it)
Tell you, there aināt nothing that I wouldnāt break for it
Dreaming when I should concentrate
Every rule on every page
(Break for it, break for it)
Tell you, there aināt nothing that I wouldnāt break for it
Oh good lord, just look at me
In my school clothes, facing down the fiercest beast
Whatever happened to gold star, straight A, āyes maāam, right awayā
In step, on time, I swear Iām trying
So hard to be perfect, tell me is it worth it? Whenever you come around you got me like...
Sneaking out in the midnight hour
Question every higher power
(Break for it, break for it)
Tell you, there aināt nothing that I wouldnāt break for it
Dreaming when I should concentrate
Every rule on every page
(Break for it, break for it)
Tell you, there aināt nothing that I wouldnāt break for it

I watched the world rise up against you
And turn to dust
The crown of jewels laid out before you
Nothing but ash and rust
When the castles crumble before your eyes
When your armies arenāt coming to your side
When the palace walls start to pull apart
And you canāt remember who you are, youāre the:
King of my heart
The rock of my soul
Come as you are
Iād never let you go
If your reality runs colder
No kingdom warm to keep
Come rest your head here on my shoulder
No need to dread the deep
When the tales youāve told start to come unglued
Iāll be sending all my love for you. Youāre the:
King of my heart
The rock of my soul
Come as you are
Iād never let you go
(x2)
When the castles crumble before your eyes
When the armies arenāt coming to your side
When the fortresses that you fortified turn to fiction
Just listenā¦
King of my heart
The rock of my soul
Come as you are
Iād never let you go
(x2)

Every Part of You
03:45
|

Who was I to tell you, you were broken?
And who was I say Iād make you whole?
How was I so sure in what you needed
When all this time what you wanted the most
Was a hand when the world got heavy
Time to patch your levies
Space to find who you were meant to be
Apart from me, and now Iām
Throwing out my empty ways
Running to your side to say that Iām
Hoping I am not too late
Iāll show you that some people change, Iām
Giving up a winless fight, I just
Wanted you to shine so bright
But we are made of light and darkness, too
And I love every part of you
And I love every part of you
Where was I when you said you were drowning
In the ocean that I had thrown you in
How was I so certain of my piety
To be blind to how you begged for it to end?
I shouldāve given a hand in the fiercest winter
Time when your hard would splinter
Space to find a place for you to grow
And now I know, and Iām
Throwing out my empty ways
Running to your side to say that Iām
Hoping I am not too late
Iāll show you that some people change, Iām
Giving up a winless fight, I just
Wanted you to shine so bright
But we are made of light and darkness, too
And I love every part of you
And I love every part of you
So if you feel broke down and all pushed around you know you can call me
And when you feel held high, wild and alive Iāll be standing proudly
One step back just so you know, that you stand all on your own
Oh, we are made of light and darkness, too
And I love every part of you
Yeah, I love every part of you.

Losers Like
03:11
|

Hello, hello
Oh no, I swear itās much more comfortable on the floor
Lately, lately
Iāve been wondering just for fun what I do this for
All these practiced paces
All these tests Iām acing
Still canāt keep up in the race
Day in, day out proving
Myself, itās a nuisance
Feels like I should finally say
Losers like holding to breaking ropes
Losers like running until they choke
Losers like trying time and again
End up in the same place weāve always been
Losers likeā¦
Meet me, meet me
Down in the graveyard Iām waiting here patiently
Land of the free
Free for taking, from the ones who look like me
Day in, day out proving
Myself, itās a nuisance
Seems like I should just admit
Losers like holding to breaking ropes
Losers like running until they choke
Losers like trying time and again
End up in the same place weāve always been
Losers like me
Day in, day out proving
Myself, itās a nuisance
Say it with me if you know
Losers like running until they choke
Losers like holding to breaking ropes
Losers like trying time and again
End up in the same place weāve always been
Losers like me

Starlight, midnight, it comes to find me
Shades low, eyes tight, but still it surprised me
Drifts into these halls, tugs at all the shadows on the walls
Speaks in my dreams
And it comes from miles around
And I sink into the sound
Running like a river when the spring stormās coming
Floating like a feather in the autumn sky
Anything Iām dreaming could be mine tomorrow
Filling up my mind with something wilder
Maps drawn, pathās worn, but somethingās peculiar
Rain scent, bird song comes unfamiliar
Timeless in refrain, still it knows me by my own name, I
Canāt stop my feet
And it comes from miles around
And I sink into the sound
Running like a river when the spring stormās coming
Floating like a feather in the autumn sky
Anything Iām dreaming could be mine tomorrow
Filling up my mind with something wilder
Close your eyes, come let me find you now
Close your eyes, donāt look behind you now
And it comes from miles around
And I sink into the sound
Running like a river when the spring stormās coming
Floating like a feather in the autumn sky
Anything Iām dreaming could be mine tomorrow
Filling up my mind with something wilder
Something Wilder
Oh, itās running like a river when the spring stormās coming
Floating like a feather in the autumn sky
Anything Iām dreaming could be mine tomorrow
Filling up my mind with something wilder

Rainestorm

When we were young, when we were young
Weād hide away on the hillside
She said to me, youāll never be
Free til you stand up and fight
Those fears that drag you all around
Better get the jump, before they get you down
Some things just donāt last, but
Some things keep coming back like...
When we were young, when we were young
I needed structure and safety
I said to her, we'll never work
Just let it slip into a memory
But I still see her in my mind
Each time I step in the spotlight
Some things just donāt last, but
Some things keep coming back, now
We fly by night
Like I shouldāve at 17
I see her smile
And itās all so clear to me
Rolling in on the breeze blowing sweet and warm
We still shine like a sunrise, and still hit like a rain storm
I passed her by the other night
Just on the outskirts of town
She said to me, āis that any way
To treat a lost friend found?ā
Though both been changed by changing times
The music played, the stars align
Some things just donāt last, but
Some things keep coming back, and now
We fly by night
Like I shouldāve at 17
I see her smile
And itās all so clear to me
Rolling in on the breeze blowing sweet and warm
We still shine like a sunrise, and still hit like a rain storm
Rebels running
Legend becoming
Life comes so fast
But some things keep coming back like...
We fly by night
Like I shouldāve at 17
I see her smile
And itās all so clear to me
Rolling in on the breeze blowing sweet and warm
We still shine like a sunrise, and still hit like a Rainestorm

Love fool, never thought it could be true
So cool, canāt be cool when Iām with you
Oh, and I, I was looking for a getaway place
Someone I could turn when Iām through with the race
Too scared to say what was on my mind
But Iām staring in your eyes tonight
Iāve spent every single day waiting on the Sun, waiting on the one, waiting on the Sun to shine
Iāve spent every single night staring at the sky, staring, at the time, praying that you might be mine
Lord knows just where we are going to, all I know is when Iām alone with you
Plays all my heartstrings
If love makes the world swing, this is the real thing
Hold on, dreaming this for so long
My song always was a lonely one
Oh, and you, you never ātil you cross that line
And Iām staring in your eyes tonight
Iāve spent every single day waiting on the Sun, waiting on the one, waiting on the Sun to shine
Iāve spent every single night staring at the sky, staring, at the time, praying that you might be mine
Lord knows just where we are going to, all I know is when Iām alone with you
Plays all my heartstrings
If love makes the world swing, this is the real thing
One look from you and I'm spinning round the room
If youāre holding out know Iām holding out for you
Iāve spent every single day waiting on the Sun, waiting on the one, waiting on the Sun to shine
Iāve spent every single night staring at the sky, staring at the time, praying that you might be mine
Lord knows just where we are going to, all I know is when Iām alone with you
Plays all my heartstrings
If love makes the world swing, this is the real thing

Bloodlines

Look me in my eyes
It wonāt be alright
Down here in the ice
Sunās donāt ever shine
Drifting in the dark
Longing for the light
Iām alive and Iām hungry for approval
Itās a feeling that Iām fairly certain youād know
Itās in your bloodline, bloodline
Bloodline, bloodline
Bloodline, bloodline
Donāt try, donāt try to run
Look me in my eyes
It wonāt be alright
Nowhere I can run
Pressure in my mind
Crouching in the cold
Fixing for the fight
Iām alive and Iām starving for acceptance
Itās a notion that I knowās keeping you restless
Itās in our bloodline, bloodline
Bloodline, bloodline
Bloodline, bloodline
Donāt try, donāt try to run, to run, to run, to run, run, run
Look me in my eyes
It wonāt be alright
Hate to let you down
Do it all the time
Only can be one
You, or is it I?
Iām alive and Iām hungry for approval
And I wonāt be getting none until you go
Itās in my bloodline, bloodline
Bloodline, bloodline
Bloodline, bloodline
Donāt try, donāt try to run

Eyes Open

I took some time, to run away and hide
And lasted longer than I had expected
But out there in the wild, I was dreaming of your smile
Couldnāt wait to tell you all the fears I bested
But now Iām standing on the doorstep
And tears are in your eyes
And youāre telling me that you canāt believe
Iād leave you far behind, well...
Oh, no, what do you know, I was
Dreaming with my eyes wide open
Oh, my, swear on my life that this
Wasnāt what I had been hoping, I
Run away just to realize
Too caught up to look outside
Coming down from a cloud nine high
And I got my eyes wide open tonight
I took some time, to find a brand new life
And I found one better than the sweetest fiction
But for every friend Iād find, you were always on my mind
And I never thought it come to this decision
Cause now Iām standing on your doorstep
And the whole thingās going wrong
And youāre begging that when I get back
Iāll stay right here at home, well...
Oh, no, what do you know, I was
Dreaming with my eyes wide open
Oh, my, swear on my life that this
Wasnāt what I had been hoping, I
Run away just to realize
Too caught up to look outside
Coming down from a cloud nine high
And I got my eyes wide open tonight
Oh, oh, oh, whatāll be left of me?
If a fantasy is getting the best of me?
Oh, no, what do you know, I was
Dreaming with my eyes wide open
Oh, my, swear on my life that this
Wasnāt what I had been hoping, I
Run away just to realize
Too caught up to look outside
Coming down from a cloud nine high
And I got my eyes wide open tonight
