The Beat Becomes A Sound

 

 

 

 

Ring a Bell

Late Night... like we've both been here before like... we're part of an alumni... I ring a bell, am I right? Oh... It's a dizzy heat, like a light that sends a wave through me, it's a tangible memory as easy as one, two...three. But it takes so long! It kinda feels like it. It kinda seems like it. Waiting all my life. It kinda feels like it, like I'll see you again.Is there someone there? It kinda feels like it, It kinda seems like it Is that someone mine? It kinda feels like it, like I'll see you again. You know, it's just like riding a bike, so... you don't have to think to breathe, no? Can't say you don't remember...oh. The camera eye catches everything I see but why do I recognize the mood so right? It's burning time in my mind. Hey hey hey. But it takes so long! It kinda feels like it. It kinda seems like it. Waiting all my life. It kinda feels like it, like I'll see you again. Is there someone there? It kinda feels like it, It kinda seems like it Is that someone mine? It kinda feels like it, like I'll see you again. But it takes so long! It kinda feels like it. It kinda seems like it. Waiting all my life. It kinda feels like it, like I'll see you again. Is there someone there? It kinda feels like it, It kinda seems like it Is that someone mine? It kinda feels like it, like I'll see you again. It kinda feels like it. It kinda seems like it. It kinda feels like it, like I'll see you again.

 

The World Spins 'Round

Today when I look in the mirror I see somebody I've never seen before. A so-and-so with a familiar face who winks at me and walks out the door. And my heart slows down as the world spins round and my heart slows down. Will the world stop spinning around? It's all over me. When I was small I'd look in the mirror, so afraid of who'd stare back at me. Now, still, in the dark my heart skips a beat and I swear I'm not the somebody I see. And my heart slows down as the world spins round and my heart slows down. Will the world stop spinning around? It's all over me. And my heart slows down as the world spins round and my heart slows down. Will the world stop spinning around? It's all over me. Around.

 

Shine

I'm not afraid I'm wrong. I'm so afraid I'm right. My deepest fear is that I'm powerful but who am to shine? How was I to know you weren't the captain of my soul? All this time, you and I could've been pulled apart and I'd have stayed alive. It's past it's gone. Today I feel alright. I don't regret one single day. I think I'll walk this line. How was I to know you weren't the captain of my soul? Not overthrown cause I know today I can be champion on my own. Starting now, I am myself again. From now on I am a champion. Starting now, I am myself again. From now on I am a champion. I'll never be alone. The rest of my life. Looking out for better days. Shining brighter lights. How was I to know you weren't the captain of my soul? All this time, you and I could've been pulled apart and I'd have stayed alive. How was I to know you weren't the captain of my soul? All this time, you and I could've been pulled apart and I'd have stayed alive. Starting now, I am myself again. From now on I am a champion. Starting now, I am myself again. From now on I am a champion. Starting now, I am myself again. From now on I am a champion.

 

Every Breath is Like a Heartbeat

You keep a steady locomotion. I know, go on and stand your ground. If you choose to believe in nothing, what is it moves you around? Every breath is like a heartbeat. Suddenly the beat becomes a sound. Just like a dream that you had once, how you tried, but couldn't run. I feel your pulse it's proof you're breathing, but the glimmer in your eyes has left. If you're believing what you're reading, how are you different from them? Every breath is like a heartbeat. Suddenly the beat becomes a sound. Just like a dream that you had once, how you tried, but couldn't run. Every breath is like a heartbeat. Suddenly the beat becomes a sound. Just like a dream that you had once, how you tried, but couldn't run. Twinkle sparkle you're the star, but you're still wondering what you are. Twinkle sparkle you're the star, but you're still wondering what you are. Twinkle sparkle you're the star, but you're still wondering what you are. Twinkle sparkle you're the star, but you're still wondering what you are. Suddenly the beat becomes a sound. Just like a dream that you had once.

 

Summer Lies

In the way water still loves the coastline, your summer eyes, lazy, eye me up and down. I slow down. Slow. Summer lies. Coast to coast we fly. Nevermind. No time for time. Seize the day. You know I will. Say it like a rhyme. This summer life, easy, cycles round and round. I slow down. Slow. I slow down. Slow. Summer lies. Coast to coast we fly. Nevermind. No time for time. Summer lies. Coast to coast we fly. Nevermind. No time for time. Summer lies. Coast to coast we fly. Nevermind. No time for time. I slow down. Slow. I slow down. Slow. I slow down. Slow. I slow down. Slow.

 

Sun Space

So I try, I take the waves in waves. Everyday, I call my "one more day". I cut and paste, hang up these days, and hide the walls with no white space. I don't need space. I don't. So I remain. The days; a sound that repeats. and I keep my face veiled in the minor key. I change the scenes, sing what I mean. "The lines are no longer in between". I don't need space. I don't. It's all in my head, but I just can't keep it there. If I stay in bed, still, with a vacant stare, I'll see life go by, while outside, sun shines. This won't be the last "one more time". I'll see life go by, while outside, sun shines. This won't be the last "one more time". Cause the sun shines...on me.

 

Days

If I were poetry I'm sure that you'd misread me. My heart wrapped up in my sleeve, it wouldn't come easily see... One day goes by. You might have crossed my mind. Two days go by. Out of sight still in mind. I sigh another sigh over the things you do. You almost harmonize. Maybe you'll pull through. I always fantasize that you've been untrue. You sigh another sigh. I'll never say adieu. If I were a melody, I'm sure you'd sing me off key. Pretend I'm a parody as if it comes easily see... Three days go by. They hit me like sunset skies. Four days go by. The pearly whites of your eyes. I sigh another sigh over the things you do. You almost harmonize. Maybe you'll pull through. I always fantasize that you've been untrue. You sigh another sigh. I'll never say adieu. One day goes by. Two days go by. Three days go by. Four days go by. I sigh another sigh over the things you do. You almost harmonize. Maybe you'll pull through. I always fantasize that you've been untrue. You sigh another sigh. I'll never say adieu. One day. Two days. Three days. Four days.

 

My Awake

How do you know when I'm about to slip to sleep? As soon as I sink, you're waiting patiently there in my mind. Just a drop in a glass half empty. In hindsight I guess that it was only a short time. But I was your one. You're in my awake. You're in my sleep. You're there in the frame. You never leave. Even with the picture gone you're all I see. You're in my awake. You're in my sleep. You're there in the frame. You never leave. Even with the picture torn you stay with me. Cause I was your one. I was your only one. I was your one. Try to wake myself up, open my mouth to cry out, but I can't move, there's a pattern of tears drowning your face. You don't say a word, but I suppose you have no doubt. It's falling off your lips, I'm the one who carved out my own grave. But I was your one. You're in my awake. You're in my sleep. You're there in the frame. You never leave. Even with the picture gone you're all I see. You're in my awake. You're in my sleep. You're there in the frame. You never leave. Even with the picture torn you stay with me. Cause I was your one. I was your only one. I was your one. I was your only one. I was your one. I was your only one. But I was your one. You're in my awake. You're in my sleep. You're there in the frame. You never leave. Even with the picture gone you're all I see. You're in my awake. You're in my sleep. You're there in the frame. You never leave. Even with the picture torn you stay with me. Cause I was your one. I was your only one. I was your one. Cause I was your one.

 

It's Only Life

Every lily is bittersweet. She trims the stems then throws them away. She thinks, "Nobody's end blooms blossoms. How can I keep them?" It's only life. It's only life. I promised you I'd hope for Heaven. But maybe you're just waiting for the right time to come back home. She sits in the car, the radio sings. Every song is singing to her, it seems. "How does a life stop ending, How can I keep this?" It's only life. It's only life. I promised you I'd hope for Heaven. But maybe you're just waiting for the right time to come back home.

 

Sapphire

The sky, the sea, and you...you're all blue. It's clearly the loneliest color you do. Take in some oxygen and lift up your chin. Open your ears and let something in. Sometimes when blue lights hide your eyes you look alive. Disguised, I realize, you're afraid. You're paralyzed. Sapphire, you're like twilight and gunfire...and how's that right? You're still as polished stone...you're alone. But I bet you'd rather not be on your own. For real, you're genuine, and I see where you've been. Open your head and let someone in. Sometimes when blue lights hide your eyes you look alive. Disguised, I realize, you're afraid. You're paralyzed. Sapphire, you're like twilight and gunfire...and how's that right? Sapphire.

 

Mistake

I think I need a second sight. Something here doesn't feel right. I want to say it's a premonition but maybe it's a just a bad decision. If I was on, then something's off. Is there a line that I've crossed, over to some senseless place with more lines to retrace? I'd say the lines are blurred. They'd ask, what have I heard? This would be how they'd say the word. Can I walk out and wash my hands; decree to never understand? If it's a sin it's of omission, to live a lie of your own volition. If I was on, then something's off. Is there a line that I've crossed, over to some senseless place with more lines to retrace? Is this the great escape? Why can't I bend and break? Would this be what they call a mistake? I'd say the lines are blurred. They'd ask, what have I heard? This would be how they'd say the word.

 

Everything

When do I start? When do I break the ice? When will I know? When will I know it's safe? I'll bide your time but it's so slow. You're writing an adagio when I could be everything, everything to you, everything, everything to you. Everything, everything to you, everything, everything to you. We stand in the snow, but I can't feel the cold. Your lips are like ice, maybe like ice, they'll break. I'll bide your time but it's so slow. You're writing an adagio when I could be everything, everything to you, everything, everything to you. Everything, everything to you, everything, everything to you. Everything, everything.
