I'd make you a star If I knew how If I could make you stay Push the rest away And down by the sea There could be a place So if you just stick by me We can see where this ends But this is just optimism Just optimism that ends So leave it there It's just optimism It's just optimism And when you leave I think I’ll be done Then all the sounds Has finally stopped The doors have new locks And the furniture’s gone The dreams on the driveway Are cleaned out by the wind Yet I'm still outside Doing my best to remember What we once started with And what we have left But this is just optimism Just optimism that ends So let it rest It's just optimism It's just optimism It's just optimism

Old Friends 03:35
Back before the bells rang Oh, what did we see? In the bright green light of a summer A night split open like the sea Behind doors, by the canals We would gather round Keeping our dreams safe and sound Then all of you would rise for me Then all of you would rise for me Then all of you would rise for me But it’s just the machineries of summertime It’s just the machineries of summertime It’s just the machineries of summertime But freedom wasn’t at all What we dreamt it up to be Just a symphony for no one And a harmless disease So when the walls where growing closer Desperation took its toll You hung your ambitions from a clipon tie And gave up all control Then what is left of you and me Then what is left of you and me Then what is left of you and me But it’s just the machineries of summertime It’s just the machineries of summertime It’s just the machineries of summertime No one knows what we could be No one knows what we could be No one knows what we could be

It’s a bit too cold out here And the streets are empty and wide I feel too naked when I'm with you But I don't want to leave your side The rain will cover up your tracks And leave me with an empty bed So when I wake up tomorrow I only got the things you said Oh do I really love you Just as much as I need you Oh and do I care about you Just as much as I can’t stop thinking about you You said you enjoyed the older days When the movies were real Then there’s that light in your eyes Tell me how am I supposed to feel? If I could rub it out I would Things would be simpler that way But you’ve found a place within me Isn't it just wonderful Oh do I really love you Just as much as I need you Oh and do I care about you Just as much as I can’t stop thinking about you And you’d never start If I didn’t start And you wouldn’t mind If this one was the last But it’s not as important now

Under bridges and trains Art in the concrete We’ve built something all for ourselves Room’s the only thing we got here I’d like to think I’m trying hard enough Although the truth isn’t fair So when I lay awake under the sky Oh, then I would swear That we’ll grow up someday Find somewhere else to stay I know I’ll find a way Do you need perspective? Because I got plenty to spare Like the sound they make when they’re alone And the long cold nights that cling to your bones But we’ll grow up someday Find somewhere else to stay Life always finds a way But its’ cold in november when they lock all the doors But I can promise you that with all your wars Oh, no matter how hard you try The stain on your name it will never die But we’ll grow up someday Find somewere else to stay I know I’ll find a way But we’ll grow up someday Find somewere else to stay Life always finds its ways Take me home If you go home Take me home If you go home Take me home If you go home Take me home If you go home But we’ll grow up someday Find somewere else to stay I know I’ll find a way But we’ll grow up someday Find somewere else to stay Life always finds its ways

Flowers 04:29
The room looks brighter With all the furniture gone I should’ve done this weeks ago Held my breath and turned the lights on Now it will take forever Just to finish this song And I haven't even started No, no There was another side of it I just couldn’t see it before What you hid in your apartment It’s the world’s greatest encore The you they knew was different From the one carried down the hall Drumrolls shake the building But there’s no time to fall I wanna leave my best regards Though I’ve forgotten them now And what do you say When nothing will make it alright? Their barricades are flooded The sympathy wearing thin Someone has drawn a line here And they won’t let me in And they won’t let me in And they won’t let me in But I just came for the flowers I just came here for the flowers I just came for the flowers I just came for the flowers I just came for the flowers I just came for the flowers
