A different make you complicate Things I try to initiate I rake the leaves to clear the ground Just like weeds you bury me Replant yourself spreading more seeds Iit's not too hard to break my stem Going on a separate ways Things have passed they're not the same Time is sure to get us by It's not you I know I know its my... Pending clauses cloud my mind Connect the dots in the wrong line A beaten path I'd rather skip Sticks and stones may weigh my head Raw and exposed you're breaking my back Hypothesize to ground my trip Going on a separate ways Things have passed they're not the same Time is sure to get us by It's not you I know it's my... I know our reasons are the same I know our reasons are the same I know our reasons are the same I know our reasons are the same (I know our reasons) (are the same) (they are the same) I know our reasons are the same. Lyrics by Alexandra Fisher and Joseph Holland

Wake Me Up 04:43
lyrics

It's almost time The moon is sitting on stand-by Orange hues Bring me a different view Than before The shoe has never fit so right It's something that's been so undefined to me Just put me in overtime Just help me get these Laces untied So wake Me up now I wanna feel everything So wake Me up now I wanna feel so complete I'm now unleashed From the web than spun me The aftermath Hurts much less than I would have guessed Just tear away these sheets That's been confining me This dream that seemed complete Well its a trap that's Haunted me So wake Me up now I wanna feel everything So wake Me up now I wanna feel so complete

Visions 03:55
lyrics

I had a vision Of black horses gliding by One stopped in my shadow And breathed frost into my eye I can't wait for winter So anxious for fall And when springtime come around I won't need this at all Wait first in line Or your vision Won't last this time Speak now or hold your breath I've been anxiously waiting for something to happen next I'm ready I'm ready I'm ready I'm ready I'm ready I'm ready And I want it And I want it And I want it And I want it clear small space enwrap me in clear small space enwrap me in clear small space I’m ready I’m ready I’m ready I’m ready I’m ready I’m ready And I want it And I want it And I want it And I want it Back Back Back To me… Lyrics by: Alexandra Fisher

Traveling Song 02:38
lyrics

You got me talking in my sleep. I made you weak in the knees. Sometimes these things change; Or sometimes we're afraid. I never thought I'd need another reason, I never thought I'd need another dream. I need to move somewhere near the ocean. I need to move somewhere I can breath. Close to you. I've never been so full of hope, And scared at the same time. (Alex) I'm confused about your new approach. I guess for now your smile will suffice (Joe) I never thought I'd need another reason, I never thought I'd need another dream. I need to move somewhere near the ocean. I need to move somewhere I can breath. Close to you. (Alex) Your tide was sure to sweep me in. I won't forget how it happened. The moon, the glimmer in my eye. Why are goodbyes so hard this time? (Joe) I never thought I'd need another reason, I never thought I'd need another dream. I need to move somewhere near the ocean. I need to move somewhere I can breath. Close to you. Lyrics by Joseph Holland (Alex wrote her verses)

Falling Apart 03:14
lyrics
download
She's out of my head now. I did what I could do to forget. It came without warning. She took all she could, and left the door - wide open. She's out of my head now. I did what I had to, to forget. It's taking a while now; things were easier in my head. From the only one, who shared my point of view, From the only one, who felt out of tune. She's out of my head now. I did all I could do to forget. It never happened. It never happened. I try, For the only thing I could do. For us both and our safety I tried, tried to forget. I'm falling apart, I'm falling apart. Lyrics and Music by Joseph Holland

Your Mistake 04:23
lyrics
download
More often than not I’m ready to let You in It’s the price I pay For being Open My thoughts are you Awake me from dreams They're nightmares Get a grip you say But everything changed in the Wrong way Break down Break down You want a clean break I just can’t take it But now it’s too late I’m your mistake Unbalanced weight Controls every Aspect Who am I to say That playing a game’s The best bet Your shadow It follows Me You left. What’s left? Break down Break down You want a clean break I just can’t take it But now it’s too late I’m your mistake It’s too late to slow it down It’s too late to slow it down It’s too late to slow it down It’s too late Its too late Its too late Its too late Its too late its too late I am all yours Take me as you are At the bottom of your hands The bottom of your hands I’ll fix you up I’ll fix you up Lyrics: Alexandra Fisher
