Space Between Two Worlds Lyrics

“Summertime”These are the days that I'll miss the most These are the days when I haven't chosen to follow the world yet These are the days that I have awoken These are the days when I haven't spoken out against anything yet Well the world may start tomorrow But it's summertime, sixteen and finding all that is mine Just here and now, carefree and floundering out of the spring Into life, into life So many things I need to see So many things I need to become, come for me And this is just the beginning This is just when all the winning comes, comes, for me The world can start tomorrow Chorus And tomorrow will be a memory, memory, one day, one day And I hope that I will remember this, remember this, one day, one day, one day But it's summertime, sixteen and finding all that is mine Just here and now, carefree and floundering out of the spring Chorus Into life, into life It's summertime |
"Sweetly"You are the dream I have to endure I can hardly sleep now This is the test I have yet to pass I can hardly breath now And it's hard enough to remember how to stand And it's hard enough, just try and understand, And speak sweet, sweet, sweetly Speak sweet, sweet, sweetly I've never liked chocolate or coffee I can hardly start now And I've always been taller than them I can hardly stop now Chours Speak sweetly, speak sweetly You are the water in my eyes I can hardly cry now You always thought we had to do without I can hardly believe now Chorus Speak sweetly, speak sweetly Oh, lalalalala, sweetly Lalalalala, sweetly Lalalalalala, sweetly Oh |
"Fountains"Courting kings and queens Counting knights and spies Living in glass towers spinning lies Simpletons and wise men Jesters fooling fools Workers working tools, building tools Fountains shatter in the rain Shapeless shadows in the rain Vases hiding flowers Faces draped in veils Shields to the world before it fails Shuttered doors and windows Daises of stone Drowning thorns in brambles all alone Chorus Beating hearts in silence The crush of sound is lost Somewhere all the while in darkness Chorus 3x |
"Happily Ever After"She'll never be alone, she'll always have the souls Of the people she's ruined by her side It comforts her at night to know that something's there Even if it doesn't care 'Cause all she wanted was to live Happily ever after But no one listened, no one paid attention To her She doesn't take excuses, she doesn't take reasons Well nobody took them from her She does what she does because someone has to be the villain And no one ever cared about her anyway She once was young but she never was beautiful Like all the other girls And everyone told her so, said “you'll never grow To be as good as us” See how easily she fell She went down, down, down She decided she would hate the world because It had always hated her Chorus Was it too much to ask just to accepted For all and everything she was She tried, how hard she tried, but what was the use When no one else would Chorus |
"Azure Sunshine"Sit me down and look at me and tell me if I am Who I seem I'm not the kind to turn and run but I guess this time I can't hold on And everything is beautiful when it's new But that fades This is so long to Azure Sunshine I'll see you one day and take it as a sign But now it's good-bye like nevermore You won't be seeing me round here, no, anymore The bluest thing you've ever seen it lives in the sky You know best, well so do I And no sun or rain can wash or burn away the clouds in my mind The grass was green and what if we've already been On the other side Chorus Wipe away the tracks of your rule So fly away to some other fool As I walk away You might hear me say Chorus 3x |
"Battlefields of Clarity"And here we go This is nothing new Every one has her time And it is here for you But you're scared 'cause you don't know If or when this will pass And we all are Just grains of sand in the hourglass And you're standing wounded on the battlefields of clarity Wondering if you'll make it out and why you can't see Stumble your way, blind from the fray And all you can do is wait, wait It is not your fault It's not because of the choices you made And I think you'll find It's part of the fight that no one can evade Chorus This story is old And it has come to an end But it's nowhere near Over this is just where it makes a bend And I hope one day you'll wake And find it was all for the better when You were standing wounded on the battlefields of clarity Wondering if you'd make it out and why you couldn't see Stumble your way, blind from the fray And all you could do was wait, wait, wait, wait And here we go |
"Invisible"What day is it anyway I lost count 'round about Last year or somewhere in there I have my doubts And lately I've felt something's not right Not right at all Would you tell me that all what's important isn't passing by Would you tell me I'm not missing out, I feel like I'm Invisible, you are living Invisible, I am watching Invisible, oh All the friends who I never see Say to me “come be Here with us” Would I pay my identity And lately I've felt this is not right Not anymore Would you tell me that all what's important isn't passing by Would you tell me I'm not missing out, I feel like I'm Invisible, you are living Invisible, I am watching Invisible, oh Would you tell me that all I want isn't passing by Would you tell me I'm not missing out, I feel like I'm Invisible, you are living Invisible, I am watching Invisible Would you tell me that this is it, and nothing's passing by Would you tell me I'm not missing out, I feel like I'm Invisible, you are living Invisible, I am watching Invisible, oh What day is it anyway I lost count |
"Afterglow"Can you feel the sunrise, can you feel the dawn I will write this then I'll be gone Will I find myself here again That will remain to be seen All my things are packed away Leaving me no grounds onto delay I will close the door for the last time And make a hard line For the future that is mine And I won't wait for something to tell me “Don't do it, please don't go” I am running in the morning afterglow This is goodbye, this is hello I am changing all I know Everything withstanding I can't back out now And would I want to anyhow Chorus I had good reason when I made my decision What is waiting, will I be satisfied Will I regret what I did decide Either way I am tied And I won't wait for something to tell me “Don't do it, please don't go” I am running in the morning, oh Won't wait for something to tell me “Don't do it, please don't go” I am running in the morning afterglow Afterglow |
"Never Be The Same"I didn't understand when it happened As away we drove Forgot to take one last look Now it's gone for good And I know it'll never be the same And I know it'll never be the same Again This silence is real that I feel Not a word And now I find there's no rewind Full fast forward Chorus Foolish to think we wouldn't sink Beneath the sea Forget that every single thing Is tied to you and me Chorus |
"Unbreakable"I cannot move from this spot, I am stuck I've lost and now I lack the will it takes to walk And I was happier unknown Nothing's set yet in stone And here I stand With open heart and open hands Be careful With me world, I'm not unbreakable My power only reaches as far as who I am I can't control how others see me or what someone's already done And I am who I am but I will hide If you try to convince me otherwise Chorus I'm not defenseless but all I've got's a picket fence Somewhere between wisdom and innocence I've seen my friends go from sharpened sticks to cavalry I'm not nervous, just naive Chorus |
"The Happy Song"Here's to trees, here's to sunlight Here's to everyday Here's to flowers growing on bushes And getting soaked by the rain And if you could define happy You would find me Here's to soap, and blowing bubbles In the summertime Here's to smiles, green grass and sea glass And coming home Chorus Here's to wind and summer thunderstorms And rainbows Here's to teeth stained with blueberries Not caring if it shows Chorus Bluebells and blues skies, ribbons and blue eyes Peaches and mown hay, glitter and light grey True friends and good food, sandcastles and firewood Candle glow, first snow Here's to sleep and the pull of the moon And the stars above Here's to life and a little something They call love Chorus Happy, happy, happy |
"The Wish"Now it is beginning Hold your breath Now it is time for winning Glory or death And I can feel it in the air That something, just can't describe Fly, this is the wish upon my tongue Oh go away, please don't go away Be my reason to stay Now we are losing Falling back And now's no time for consorting With all you lack And I can see it in your eyes That everything you can't describe so Fly, this is the wish upon my tongue Just go away, please don't go away Be my reason to stay, stay, stay |
"Space Between Two Worlds"Sparkling gowns and gleaming towers Lights on the street, thirty stories high Rush of sound, crush of urgency Busy hurried lives, never ask why Caught somewhere in the middle Never seen Not quite here, not quite there The space between two worlds Worn torn jeans in the dirt and flowers Flat in the grass with the stars in the the sky Wasting time, wasted away Just because you never asked why Caught somewhere in the middle Never seen Not quite here, not quite there The space between two worlds The space between two worlds The space between two worlds |
