Lost Where I Belong

Draw The Stars

While the people sleep I lie awake
Encased in dreams that carry me
To a distant sound to undertake
I feel its way

Even though I'm helpless of
The force above
And even though I can't see far
I hold tighter and draw the stars

While the birds fly
I sink below
Into the cloth and weeping willows
Binding me to the wood
A shelter from a world of good

Even though I am helpless of
The force above
Even though I, I can't see far
I hold on tighter, draw the stars

Upon my page
And while the wind blows
I open my arms
And just let them go

Even though I am helpless of
The force above
Even though I, I can't see far
I hold on tighter and draw the stars
I hold on tighter and draw the stars
Draw the stars

Lost Where I Belong

Staring at an empty page again
Searching deep within my soul
Sometimes I don't know where to begin
When there's nothing left to hold

So I will sing you a song
That I know that I can lean on
So I will sing you a song
That I know that I can lean on
'Cause I'm lost where I belong
Where I belong, where I belong
Where I belong

Drifting around this empty place again
Hoping to feel whole
Hearing nothing but the world spinning
The silence is louder than before

So I will sing you a song
That I know that I can lean on
So I will sing you a song
That I know that I can lean on
'Cause I'm lost where I belong
Where I belong, where I belong
Where I belong

I can't give you what I don't have to give
Am I going somewhere
Still I try to believe

I can't give you what I don't have to give
Am I going somewhere
Still I try to believe

So I will sing you a song
That I know that I can lean on
So I will sing you a song
That I know that I can lean on

So I will sing you a song
That I know that I can lean on
So I will sing you a song
That I know that I can lean on

A Town Called Obsolete

As I sit here with this urgency
And nobody to the side of me
All quiet and alone
Needing answers of the unknown
Flitting between the real and aloof
A strenghtening pulse of these blues
Sketched out and oh so confused
Just keep calling
Just keep calling

Put it down and it will come around
A hidden street
A town called obsolete

Put it down and it will come around
A hidden street
A town called obsolete

I glance out at the invisible
Winding it round keeping me so warm
Impatiently overload
Missing someone that I've never known
Flitting between the plead and the truth
At times I'm wondering what's the use?
So I ease out a righteous pursuit
Just keep calling
Just keep calling

Put it down and it will come around
A hidden street
A town called obsolete

Put it down and it will come around
A hidden street
A town called obsolete

Put it down and it will come around
A hidden street
A town called obsolete

Put it down and it will come around
A hidden street
A town called obsolete

Darker Than Blue

Those eyes are darker than blue
I saw that looking at you
It's not you, you wear up on your sleeve
The people stare as you walk down the street
It's not you, you wear up on your sleeve
That shows the world who you are
All except me

Those eyes are darker than blue
I saw that by candlelight
From a brighter room
And the smile you wear on the outside deceives
The people stare as you walk down the street
The smile you wear on the outside deceives
To show the world who you are
All except me

And they grow darker still
Til the hour glasses fill
They grow darker still
And show the world who you are
All except me
All except me

Those eyes are darker than blue
I saw that looking at you

Those eyes are darker than blue
I saw that looking at you

Daydreamers

Leave your candle at the door
take off your feathers
Show me your diamond pieces and such
I have a thought for you, only a little
To put in your pocket to rust

Shall we stare right through the window's pain
What it shone outside, refrain
Hoping that we'd float away
Hoping that we'd fly with...

Daydreamers
And even though we try
Daydreamers
A snapshot of the light
But it won't capture us

And so we sat that night
Beside the firelight
Dancers in the fields of lust
It picked us flowers
They dust dissolved away
And twilight was on the cusp

Standing in a gap of slight reserve
We embrace, recite a verse
Hoping that we float away
Hoping that we'd fly with

Daydreamers
And even though we try
Daydreamers
A snapshot of the light
But it won't capture us
Though we shall remain
Our hope a refrain
Distant and contained within

Daydreamers
And even though we try
Daydreamers
A snapshot of the light
Now they've captured us

Far Closer

If I could get far closer to you
Far closer, closer to you
If I could get far closer to you
Far closer, closer to you

I'm brightly fading
Savouring the doubt
Your sonnets promising
Til I bail you of fear
I'm thinking about it

Clouding all over me like summer in June
Running away just to get closer to you
To be nearer
I'm hiding behind it

But I can't deny
What I know in my mind
No, I can't deny
What I feel inside

The love you gave me
On a silver spoon
Served me well and darling now I am full
I need something sweeter
I can't fight it

A familiar feeling I know that I've been through
Another time before me and you
I can't go any deeper, no
And I can't fight it

No, I can't deny
What I know in my mind
No I can't deny
What I feel inside

No, I can't deny
What I know in my mind
No, I can't deny
What I feel inside

So if I can be far closer to you
Then I might
If I could be far closer to you
Then I might

But I can't deny
What I know in my mind
No, I can't deny
What I feel inside

No, I can't deny
What I know in my mind
No, I can't deny
What I feel inside

I'm brightly fading
Savouring the doubt
Your sonnets promising til I bail out of fear
I'm thinking about it
I'm thinking about it
I'm thinking about it

Something In The Silence

I don't need it all to be alright
Some of the time would be kinda nice
I'm whispering "I hope you will be kind"
When we awake in tomorrow's lie
One step frightened but you're lovely
Two steps shy but let's try

So it's up to you
What you do
It's up to you
'Cause I'm all good
It's up to you
Something in the silence

I close my eyes to you, my compromise
You're up and down
Then meet me on the side
A part of you, it doesn't feel right
But then the other, I hold on too tight
One step I see it could get ugly
Two steps ignoring the signs

But it's up to you
What you do
It's up to you
'Cause I'm all good
It's up to you
Something in the silence

You come undone and broken it seems
A piece of you is no good to me

So it's up to you
What you do
It's up to you
'Cause I'm all good
It's up to you
Something in the silence
It's up to you

It's up to you
What you do
It's up to you
'Cause I'm all good
It's up to you
Something in the silence
It's up to you

If you got it, it's yet to be seen
You come undone and broken it seems
A shattered you, a bleeding me
A piece of you is no good to me
And I thought I could hear something in the silence...

Up In Fire

Up in fire
We melt like vapors of the sun
We glistened once
Remember how we could not get enough
But the heat put out the feeling
That I gave to you
And you gave to me
Now there's just a memory
That sinks within me only to rise again

Burnt out ruins of our love
Rage on and roam free
Burnt out ruins of our love
Breathe on and break free

Dismantled
A part of this delicate frame
Encasing us
Only the unsaid remains
But we meet time and again
And ignite a fire deep within of no feeling
On our feet rising again
The distance brings us closer
But we're both knowing

Burnt out ruins of our love
Rage on and roam free
Burnt out ruins of our love
Breathe on and break free

We pirouette and it replays
Around and round my head
I'm trying to forget
But I know that it's there

Burnt out ruins of our love
Rage on and roam free
Burnt out ruins of our love
Breathe on and break free

Burnt out ruins of our love
Rage on and roam free
Burnt out ruins of our love
Breathe on and break free

Hey you
The long time stranger
Do you think of before?
When we were wrapped up in ourselves
In a mess behind the door
Now it seems so, so immature
Your stolen signs
The stickers on your door

The beginning was warmer
Than your ending prose
You were another conqueror
I was another part disposed
I guess that's just the way it goes

Hey you
My one time wonderer
Do you feel for before
It is etched out in photographs
And scratched up records
Now it seems so, so immature
Your postered walls
The dirt on your floor

The beginning was warmer
Than your ending prose
You were another conqueror
I was another part disposed
I guess that's just the way it goes

So I want to know
Did you ever think of me on a summer's day
Or holding her hand out in the rain
Remember I said "Please, please, please don't go"
And now we're just strangers in different worlds
I guess that's just the way it goes

I guess that's just the way it goes
Way it goes
I guess that's just the way it goes
Way it goes

Eyesdown

(Bonobo feat. Andreya Triana)

Hands up
I got my eyes facing down
I’ll show you where my tears come down
Slowly down…

Stay The Same

(Bonobo feat. Andreya Triana)

A night train
Midnight
Bags gathered round my feet
Possessions
Some lessened
To carry with me
Heavy and soothing
Like a gentle symphony

I rest my head right
Back upon my seat
It's hard and cold though
The best thing for me
This train is moving
But my heart is stationery

Seasons change
Signed that it won't be the same
I'm hoping, I won’t stay the same
Reasons strange
Why we almost play these games

I left it
With you
A note that was discreet
I made sure
I put it
Upon the cellar door
It's hanging, hoping
Will you read it while I weep

Last time
The last time
It flickers through me
So vivid
It rushes
From my head down to my feet
We're laughing, joking
Threw a dice to my defeat

Seasons change
It will never be the same
I'm hoping
I won’t stay the same
Reasons strange
Why we almost play these games

Seasons change
It will never be the same
I'm hoping
I won’t stay the same
Reasons strange
Why we almost play these games

Seasons change
It will never be the same
I'm hoping
I won’t stay the same
Reasons strange
Why we almost play these games

The Keeper

(Bonobo feat. Andreya Triana)

I know she said
That I don't need her
‘Cause every time I call
She’s sitting sweeter

Well I know she said
To get near her
But I'm feeling cold
And I must leave her

Sat down here with my head hung down
And I just seem to find
A bit of peace
A bit of love
A bit of something left behind

Sat down here less intentions
Nothing said, nothing lied
A bit of peace
A bit of love
A bit of something left inside

And my heart's content
I said I don’t please her
Happiness is on her face
It's the mind that greets her
Only my disgrace
To admit I need her
But we all fall from grace
Dust me down and keep her

Sat down here with my head hung down
And I just seem to find
A bit of peace
A bit of love
A bit of something left behind

Sat down here less intentions
And nothing said, nothing lied
A bit of peace
A bit of love
A bit of something left inside

We can go on
We can go on
We can go on
We can go on...

Because we can go on
Living this way
