Clocks

The lights go out and I can't be saved
Tides that I tried to swim against
Have brought me down upon my knees
Oh I beg, I beg and plead, singing

Come out of things unsaid
Shoot an apple off my head and a
Trouble that can't be named
A tiger's waiting to be tamed, singing

You are
You are

Confusion never stops
Closing walls and ticking clocks
Gonna come back and take you home
I could not stop that you now know, singing

Come out upon my seas
Cursed missed opportunities
Am I a part of the cure?
Or am I part of the disease? Singing

You are, you are, you are
You are, you are, you are

And nothing else compares
Oh nothing else compares
And nothing else compares

You are
You are

Home, home where I wanted to go
Home, home where I wanted to go
Home, home where I wanted to go
Home, home where I wanted to go

Crests of Waves

It could be worse
I could be alone
I could be locked in here on my own
Or like a stone that suddenly drops
It never stops, no

I could be lost
Or I could be saved
Calling out from beneath the waves
Beaten down by this ocean rain
Never again
Never again

Screaming out from the crests of waves

It could be worse
Bitter or sweet
It could be snapped from the jaws of defeat
Or like a light lit up on a beach 
Wear your heart on your sleeve
Oh

You want to stop before you begin
You want to sink when you know you could swim
You want to stop just before you begin
Never give in
Never give in

Screaming out from the crests of waves

Nothing matters
Except life and the love you make
Nothing matters
Except life and the love you make
Nothing matters
Except life and the love you make
Except life and the love you make

Screaming out from the crests of waves

Screaming out from the crests of waves
You're longing to be saved
Screaming out from the crests of waves
You are longing to be saved
Screaming out from the crests of waves

Animals

Animals we are
Disposable, collapsible and raw
In you go into some crowded room
And animals that climb
And they're climbing over you until you say
"Off you go, off you go"

Animal I am
And I'm looking for an answer just like you
But I should know which way to turn

An animal that runs
And I ran away from you because I'm scared
"Now off you go, off you go"

If you're gonna go, go now 
If you're gonna go, go now 
I forgot to tell you how 
So if you're gonna go
Go now 

Animal you are
Disposable defenceless yes and
Watch your mouth, boys watch your mouth 
An animal that runs
And I made all my excuses to you 
And I missed my chance by a stones throw

If you're gonna go, go now 
If you're gonna go, go now 
I forgot to tell you how
So if you're gonna go
Go now
Go now
Go now
Go now

And I crumble
Crumble and fall
Crumble and fall like an animal

I crumble
Crumble and fall
Crumble and fall like an animal

Yes I crumble
Crumble and fall
Crumble and fall like an animal

Yes I crumble
Crumble and fall
Crumble and fall like an animal
