As Long as It Takes Lyrics
1 ContributorAs Long as It Takes LyricsI was watching when you lost direction
And I saw you when the headlights died
You were standing at the edge of a train wreck
Twisted up inside
I tried to find you in your pitch black bedroom
I tried to find you in the place you hide
But your body was an empty suitcase
Hollow sunken eyes
If you let me catch a ride on your road to recovery
You can fall apart on me
Because I'll be here as long as it takes
A remedy to steady your midnight shakes
I'll stay here as long as it takes
As long as it takes to get it right
Strange how no matter what the distance
You can never escape yourself
Distorted by your own reflection
But only I can tell
I know I said I didn't watch your plane leave
Honestly, I should admit I lied
I was standing at the edge of the runway wishing I could fly
If you let me catch a ride on your road to recovery
You can fall apart on me
Because, I'll be here as long as it takes
A remedy to steady your midnight shakes
I'll stay here as long as it takes
As long as it takes to get it right
It's beautiful to break
Let your false flag drift away
Show me your face
You can fall apart on me
Because I'll be here as long as it takes
A remedy to steady your midnight shakes
I'll stay here as long as it takes...
I'll be here as long as it takes
A memory that steadies your midnight shakes
I'll stay here as long as it takes
As long as it takes to get it right
Dust Storm (acoustic version) Lyrics
1 ContributorDust Storm LyricsI've been waiting for the wind to change
I've been craving the summer rain
I wonder when she's gonna flood the plains
Will I die before I get old?
Will I be known or unknown?
Can you tell me why all the birds have flown?
I don't wanna leave a message
If there's nobody home
I thought I saw you through the window
But I don't know
Stingin' my eyes, it's just a dust storm
Caught outside, it's just a dust storm
Weatherman lied, it's just a dust storm
I've been waiting for the moon to rise
She's so luminous and wise
When she flirts with me, I feel shy
I don't wanna leave a message
If there's nobody home
I thought I saw you through the window
But I don't know
Stingin' my eyes, it's just a dust storm
Caught outside, it's just a dust storm
Weatherman lied, it's just a dust storm
Lonely, desolate, uninhabited
In the reaches of no one, nowhere
Conjured your voice again
Shifting sediments
But I don't know
Stingin' my eyes, it's just a dust storm
Caught outside, it's just a dust storm
Weatherman lied, it's just a dust storm
Miles and miles, it's just a dust storm
Filling the sky, it's just a dust storm
Let it pass by, it's just a dust storm, oh
Don't Let Your Enemies Become Friends Lyrics
2 ContributorsDonāt Let Your Enemies Become Friends LyricsBlacked out falling on the floor tonight
Thats what I do, to feel the light
You tow the open line that draws me in
Everytime I sink a little lower in the deep tonight
I don't remember anything I used to like about you
And why I always let you win
And as the saying goes
Don't let your enemies become friends
For the record I never wanted this
For the record
I wish we never met
And opened up this mess
I couldn't keep up
So we cracked up
And now everything is worse
I should have known
I'm better off on the floor alone
Sometimes closure
Doesn't close out anything at all
Roughed up rolling in the after glow
My dark mistakes they start to show
You operate the spotlight I bathe in
Every time I put a little faith in my hopelessness
I recall why I'm such a wreck about you
And how you never let me win
And as the saying goes
Don't let your enemies become friends
For the record I never wanted this
For the record
I wish we never met
And opened up this mess
I couldn't keep up
So we cracked up
And now everything is worse
I should have known
I'm better off on the floor alone
Cause sometimes closure
Doesn't close out anything at all
All you ever did was use me like a puppet
Stringing me along just to let me loose
Giving me a choice, so i have to choose
All i ever did was put it in the open
Giving up the chance to shut you down
You took it as a chance to shut me out
For the record I never wanted this
For the record
I wish we never met
And opened up this mess
I couldn't keep up
So we cracked up
And now everything is worse
I should have known
I'm better off on the floor alone
Cause sometimes closure
Doesn't close out anything at all
Cause sometimes closure
Doesn't close out anything at all
