Track Lyrics

Empty Street Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Boxing up the fireworks
Cancel my parade
The street is empty tonight, tonight
Everything is quiet now
The city holds its breath for me
Their spirit has died, it died
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Running my whole life to reach this place
And just when I arrive, the moment fades out
Will you let me?
[Chorus]
Stop time
Your hand in mine
Bring me closer as it all gets ripped away
And I say goodbye to the clearest eyes
I won't be with you
But I won't be far away
[Verse 2]
I don't need an answer
But if you rewrote the past
Do you think you'd just leave me out, leave me out?
Or will you spin your head around in every crowded room
To see if I can be found, be found?
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Every single plan you will forget
So do what makes you happy
No regrets now
I won't let you
[Chorus]
Stop time
Your hand in mine
Bring me closer as it all gets ripped away
And I say goodbye to the clearest eyes
I won't be with you
But I won't be far away
[Bridge]
I remember when you asked me how far that I could throw this love I found
And then I heard you say you'd wait around
I won't let you
[Chorus]
Stop time
Your hand in mine
Bring me closer as it all gets ripped away
And I say goodbye to the clearest eyes
I won't be with you
But I won't be far away
And this is goodbye, goodbye
This is goodbye, goodbye
[Outro]
The street is empty tonight
The street is empty tonight

Southern Air Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I've watched the world go by
Outside a window I still can't believe
Where I am now
It's been forever long
Adventures come and gone
And I'm left alone
But not let down
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Cause I have found a gravity
A voice that pulls me to my knees
Telling me
"Remember where you're from"
[Chorus]
This southern air is all I need
Breathe it in and I can see
Canvases behind my eyes
All the colors of my life
This southern air is in my lungs
It's in every word I've sung
Seems the only truth I know
This will always be home
[Verse 2]
I thought about the day
When I could truly say I'm better now
And here I am
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Cause I have let this gravity
Grab a hold and carry me
And I will not
Forget where I am from [x2]
[Chorus]
[Hook - x2]
Always be home
[Verse 3]
The sun lays down inside the ocean
I'm right where I belong
Feel the air and salts on my skin
The future's coming on
And after living through these wild years
And coming out alive
I just want to lay my head here
Stop running for a while
[Chorus]
[Hook - x2]
This will always be home
[Bridge: Instrumental]
[Outro]
This southern air is in my lungs
It's in every word I've sung
Seems the only truth I know
This will always be home

Ocean Avenue Lyrics

[Verse 1]
There's a place off Ocean Avenue
Where I used to sit and talk with you
We were both sixteen and it felt so right
Sleepin' all day, stayin' up all night
Stayin' up all night
[Verse 2]
There's a place on the corner of Cherry Street
We would walk on the beach in our bare feet
We were both eighteen and it felt so right
Sleepin' all day, stayin' up all night
Stayin' up all night
[Chorus]
If I could find you now things would get better
We could leave this town and run forever
Let your waves crash down on me and take me away
[Verse 3]
There's a piece of you that's here with me
It's everywhere I go, it's everything I see
When I sleep, I dream, and it gets me by
I can make-believe that you're here tonight
That you're here tonight
[Chorus]
If I could find you now things would get better
We could leave this town and run forever
I know somewhere, somehow we'll be together
Let your waves crash down on me and take me away
[Bridge]
I remember the look in your eyes
When I told you that this was goodbye
You were beggin' me, not tonight
Not here, not now
We're looking up at the same night sky (Ooh)
And keep pretendin' the sun will not rise (Ooh)
We'll be together for one more night (Ooh)
Somewhere, somehow
[Chorus]
If I could find you now things would get better
We could leave this town and run forever
I know somewhere, somehow we'll be together
Let your waves crash down on me and take me away

Telescope Lyrics

[Verse 1: Ryan Key]
I've been here a while
Staring at this screen wondering what I'll write
Things I can't explain
But should've tried to say when I had the time
You were inspiration
When no one else believed
You showed me strength in my skin
That no one else could see
[Chorus: Ryan Key]
Let's just keep driving on
All the stars jumping in through the windows
Let's go where we belong
Headed fast as we can for the unknown
[Verse 2: Ryan Key]
I remember how
Like a telescope you could always find
(You could always find)
Something worth a wish
You said every day's a gift and we'll be alright
(We'll be alright)
And something took you from me
I can't understand why
But wherever you're resting
(I'm carrying)
I'm carrying your light
[Chorus: Ryan Key]
Let's just keep driving on
All the stars jumping in through the windows
Let's go where we belong
Headed fast as we can for the unknown
[Bridge: Ryan Key]
You can't stay there
And it's not fair
Those were the days when we laughed all the while
When the fireflies
Lit up our skies
Those were the nights when the world made us smile
[Refrain: Ryan Key, Ryan Key, Alex Gaskarth, Taylor Jardine, Cassadee Pope]
My only hope
You're my telescope
My only hope
You're my telescope
My only hope
You're my telescope
My only hope
You're my telescope
[Pre-Chorus: Ryan Key]
(Let's just keep driving on)
(Let's go where we belong)
[Chorus: Ryan Key]
Let's just keep driving on
All the stars jumping in through the windows
Let's go where we belong
Headed fast as we can for the unknown
[Bridge: Ryan Key]
You can't stay there
And it's not fair
Those were the days when we laughed all the while
When the fireflies
Lit up our skies
Those were the nights when the world made us smile
[Hook: Alex Gaskarth, Ryan Key, Alex Gaskarth, Taylor Jardine, Cassadee Pope]
My only hope
You're my telescope
(My only hope)
(You're my telescope)
My only hope
You're my telescope
(My only hope)
[Hook: Ryan Key]
My only hope
You're my telescope

You and Me and One Spotlight Lyrics

[Verse 1]
It won't be long now
The music's on loud
We'll sing this song out
And then we'll lie down
I'll hold you close then
And let you know when
The space and time bend
And then we'll fall in
[Pre-Chorus]
Go put on your best tonight
It's you and me and one spotlight
One more show, one last time
We are ready
[Chorus 1]
Say you will be all around me
When your body sets your heart free
Say you will be all around me
[Verse 2]
I'll look for your eyes
To keep me inside
When everything dies
With one last sunrise
And when we stand there
Together, not scared
I'll dry your last tear
And then we're just air
[Pre-Chorus]
Go put on your best tonight
It's you and me and not much time
To watch the world burning bright
We are ready
[Chorus 2]
Say you will be all around me
When your body sets your heart free
Say you will be all around me
Say you'll get me through the ending
Take my body, set my heart free
Say you'll get me through the ending
[Pre-Chorus]
Go put on your best tonight
It's you and me and one spotlight
One more show, one last time
It won't be long now
[Chorus 2]
Say you will be all around me
When your body sets your heart free
Say you will be all around me
Say you'll get me through the ending
Take my body, set my heart free
Say you'll get me through the ending
[Outro]
Say you will be
(It won't be long now)
All around me
(It won't be long now)

Waiting Game Lyrics

[Chorus]
More than ever
I need to feel you
More than ever
I see the real you
You are me
A worst disaster would be waking up alone
Now we're free
We're drifting out like all the ones we didn't know
I wait for a silence here
I wait for things to disappear
Wait for the ground to stop moving underneath my only fear
If I lose you, I don't know
[Chorus]
More than ever
I need to feel you
It's all around
More than ever
I see the real you
And it surrounds
[Bridge] x2
Everything, everything we have had
Out of sight, out of mind, given that
What I see when I dream hurts like hell and back
[Chorus] x2

Only One Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Broken this fragile thing now
And I can't, I can't pick up the pieces
And I've thrown my words all around
But I can't, I can't give you a reason
[Pre-Chorus]
I feel so broken up (So broken up)
And I give up (I give up)
I just wanna tell you so you know
[Chorus]
Here I go
Scream my lungs out and try to get to you
You are my only one
I let go
But there's just no one that gets me like you do
You are my only, my only one
[Verse 2]
I made my mistakes, let you down
And I can't, I can't hold on for too long
Ran my whole life in the ground
And I can't, I can't get up when you're gone
[Pre-Chorus]
And something's breakin' up (Breakin' up)
I feel like givin' up (Like givin' up)
I won't walk out until you know
[Chorus]
Here I go
Scream my lungs out and try to get to you
You are my only one
I let go
But there's just no one that gets me like you do
You are my only, my only one
[Interlude]
[Bridge]
Here I go so dishonestly
Leave a note for you, my only one
And I know you can see right through me
So let me go, and you will find someone
[Chorus]
Here I go
Scream my lungs out and try to get to you
You are my only one
I let go
But there's just no one, no one like you
You are my only, my only one
[Outro]
You're my only one
My only one
You're my only one
You are my only, my only one

A Place We Set Afire Lyrics

[Verse 1]
You're feeling you're boxed in by the youth you've left behind
Does anybody see you anymore?
But if we can get free, there's a big bright world to see
Forget about the way it felt before
[Pre-Chorus]
Try to breathe the air that's here and now
Try to find some peace in falling out
[Chorus]
We don't have to say goodbye
But we can't get lost in time
I'll be yours and you'll be mine
Maybe in another life
[Verse 2]
You tell me there must be a little light left flickering
Burning in a place we set afire
But no one will listen if we just wait here to burn
We gotta swing away, gotta cut the wire
[Pre-Chorus]
Try to breathe the air that's here and now
Try to find some peace in falling out
[Chorus x2]
We don't have to say goodbye
But we can't get lost in time
I'll be yours and you'll be mine
Maybe in another life
We don't have to say goodbye
But we can't get lost in time
I'll be yours and you'll be mine
Maybe in another life
[Outro]
We don't have to say goodbye
I'll be yours and you'll be mine

Transmission Home Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I’m here reaching out again
Lean into the wind on my knees
My fear is a memory
It’s a reverie and I’m free
I wanna take this crown from my head
I wanna build something with my hands
[Chorus]
I will send a transmission home
To say that I’ve been out here too long alone
And I wanna come down now
I will send a transmission home
To say I should have called in so long ago
And I wanna come down
[Verse 2]
Life comes at the speed of light
But there’s a place in time for me
When love runs into every day
Over every place that I’ve been
I wanna wipe these stars from my eyes
I wanna search and see what I find
[Chorus]
I will send a transmission home
To say that I’ve been out here too long alone
And I wanna come down now
I will send a transmission home
To say I should have called in so long ago
And I wanna come down
[Bridge]
Oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh
[Chorus]
I will send a transmission home
To say that I’ve been out here too long alone
And I wanna come down now
I will send a transmission home
To say I should have called in so long ago
And I wanna come down now
