I've been trying to get my head, oh well

Wild-eyed, oooohh

There's just this thing about 'cha.

So maybe you can help me clear this up,
cause me myself I just can't tell.
Are you some kind of dark sorcerer
Am I under some kinda of spell?

Cause I could go on for days,
just crazy about it, oh,

mmm but I'm an animal,

It's like a skydive,

The kinda thrill that could just kill ya,
It's like I'm eye-to-eye
Wild-eyed, ooooohh
I don't know what to tell ya,

There's just this thing about 'cha,

And aren't you gonna tell me what comes next,
or am I just supposed to know?
Do I make my own decisions here,
or am I under your control?

Cause I could go on for days,
just crazy about it, oh,
and it's startin' to getcha now,
oooh now you're comfortable,

It's like a skydive,
I'm gettin' high,
The kinda thrill that could just kill ya,
It's like I'm eye-to-eye
Wild-eyed, ooooohh
I don't know what to tell ya,

Do you think I'm out of line?
Do you think I'm out of line?
Well maybe it's fine, maybe it's alright it's like I'm at a, a wild time,
yeah I don't know what to tell ya
I don't know what to tell ya

There's just this thing about 'cha..

You know you can't keep lettin' it get you down
And you can't keep draggin' that dead weight around.
If there ain't all that much to lug around,
Better run like hell when you hit the ground.

When the morning comes.
When the morning comes.

You can't stop these kids from dancin'.
Why would you want to?
Especially when yor already gettin' yours.
'Cause if your mind don't move and your knees don't bend,
well don't go blamin' the kids again.

When the morning comes.
When the morning comes.

When the morning comes.
When the morning comes.

When the morning comes.
When the morning comes.

Let it go, this too shall pass.
Let it go, this too shall pass.

Let it go, this too shall pass.
(You know you can't keep lettin' it get you down.
No, you can't keep lettin' it get you down.)

Let it go, this too shall pass.
(You know you can't keep lettin' it get you down.
No, you can't keep lettin' it get you down.)

Hey!

Let it go, this too shall pass.
(You know you can't keep lettin' it get you down.
No, you can't keep lettin' it get you down.)

When the morning comes.
(You can't keep lettin' it get you down.
You can't keep lettin' it get you down.)

When the morning comes.
(You can't keep lettin' it get you down.
No, you can't keep lettin' it get you down.)

When the morning comes.
(You can't keep lettin' it get you down.
You can't keep lettin' it get you down.)

When the morning comes.
(You can't keep lettin' it get you down.
No, you can't keep lettin' it get you down.)

When the morning comes!

It’s coming down, babe.
Could be as bad as they talked about.
It’s coming down, babe.
Could be before we can make it out.

But when they say that all is lost, all is not lost, all is not lost.
But when they say all is lost, all is not lost, no all is not lost at all.

They could be right about it.
They could be right in some crazy way.
‘Cause if they yell fire, well that’s what we get.
Yeah that’s what we get.
Yeah they yell fire, and that’s what we get.
So, yeah it’s coming babe.
Probably bad as they talked about.
But just remember: when the tide rolls in, it can’t be too long until it rolls back out.

And when they say all is lost, all is not lost, all is not lost.
But when they say that all is lost, all is not lost, no all is not lost at all.

And if they burn, if they burn this place down to the ground, what does it matter?
What does it matter?
So when they say that all is lost, all is not lost, all is not lost.
But when they say that all is lost, all is not lost. No, all is not lost at all.

I've been waiting for months, waiting for years,
waiting for you to change.
Aw, but there aint much that's dumber, there aint much that's dumber
than pinning your hopes on a change in another.
And I, yeah I still need you, but what good's that gonna do?
Needing is one thing, and getting- gettings another.

So I been sitting around, wasting my time,
wondering what you been doing.
Aw, and it aint real forgiving, it aint real forgiving
sitting here pictureing someone else living.
And I , yeah I still need you, but what good's that gonna do?
Needing is one thing, and getting- getting's another.

I've been hoping for months, hoping for years, hoping I might forget.
Aw, but it don't get much dumber, it don't get much dumber
then trying to forget a girl when you love her.
And I, yeah I still need you, but what good's that gonna do?
Needing is one thing, and getting- getting's another.

When? When? Why not now? Why not me? Why not me?

Skyscrapers, please forgive me
I didn't mean a word I said
Skyscrapers, I was just tangled up in my own head
And somehow in all the madness
I thought that I was seeing straight
It ain't always pretty, but it seemed there was no other way
And I guess, all I ever loved
Was standing right before my eyes
And I, oh I, I was blind
So skyscrapers, please forgive me
I'm standing here repentative, man
Oh skyscrapers, I'll never look down again, again
Oh 'cause I guess, all I ever loved
Was standing right before my eyes
Oh yeah I guess all I've ever known
Was standing here all the time
And I, yeah I, I was blind
You were right here all the time
You were right here all the time, I was blind

you'll never get that taste, out of your mouth
you'll never the paw prints, out of the hen house now
and you can't go back, same way you came
round all the pieces up, but they just dont fit the same

white knuckles
maybe it's not so bad
so let your hair down now

white knuckles
yeah maybe its not so bad
aww go ahead and let it down

so come and let it all out, let it bleed
did you get what you want? did you get what you need?
behind the lines, behind the walls
tell me whats the bet you made, was it that bad after all?

white knuckles
yeah maybe its not so bad
so let your hair down now

white knuckles
aww maybe its not so bad
just let it all come down now

so just have fun, its far enough
everybody needs to sleep
at night, everybody needs a crutch
but couldn't good, be good enough?
cause nothin' ever doesn't change but nothin' changes much

yeah, maybe its not so bad
so let your hair down now
white knuckles

aww maybe its not so bad
just let it all come down now

yeah maybe its not so bad
just let your hair come down now

oh maybe its not so bad
just let it all come down

In your fitted raincoat and tangled winter hair
Cheeks a little rosy in the February air
Running through the subway to catch the Uptown train
Spend the night just dancing
Running through the subway to catch the Uptown train
Spend the night just dancing

[Chorus:]
I want you, yeah I want you
I want you, yeah I want you bad
So bad I can't think straight
So bad all my bones shake
So bad I can't breathe

And in the midnight quiet, outside the world away
We could have just one more night that you could stay.
And in the light of morning for 21 days straight
There you are beside me
And in the light of morning for 21 days straight
There you are beside me

[Repeat Chorus:]

So wontcha, So wontcha c'mon (3x)
(Very Suggestive "Ahs")
I can't breathe
(Band pauses, entire female population of the planet screams)
I want you, yeah I want you, so bad I can't breathe
I can't breathe.

Oh sugar,
Oh sugar can't you see
How hard I'm tryin'?

You know you gotta,
You know you gotta eventually
Make up
your mind

'Cause no one's gonna find ya
When you're hiding in the dark
No one's gonna find ya
When you're hiding in the dark
No one's gonna find ya
When you're hiding in the dark
No one's gonna find ya

So would you
So would you talk to me?
It's time to decide

'Cause no one's gonna save ya
If you don't swim for the boat
No one's gonna save ya
If you won't take the rope
No one's gonna find ya
When you're hiding in the dark
No one's gonna find ya

And it's end love the sky is fallin'
End love, the sky is fallin'
The sky is fallin'

So sugar,
So sugar dance with me
This one last time

We got no reason,
We got no reason I can see
To hold back tonight

'Cause no one's gonna catch ya
If you can't just let go
No one's gonna know ya
If you can't let love show
No one's gonna find ya
When you're hiding in the dark
No one's gonna find ya

And it's end love the sky is fallin'
End love the sky is fallin'
The sky is fallin'

Oh sugar
Oh sugar can't you see
How hard I'm tryin'

You know you gotta
You know you gotta eventually
Make up your mind

And it's end love the sky is fallin'
End love the sky is fallin'
The sky is fallin'

End love the sky is fallin' (x4)

Before the earth was round
There was no end to things
And no one tried to measure what they knew

Everything was warm
And everyone was loved
And every contradiction was true

The sun was twice as hot
The moon was twice as far
And the sky was still honestly blue
The sky was still honestly blue

But when the time came
Everything spiraled in
And everyone forgot what they knew

War became a job

And love became a mystery
And heart and head were split into two

Fear and doubt began
And God threw up his hands
And the sky didn’t know what to do
The sky didn’t know what to do

The sky didn’t know what to do

If you should be the last Autumn leaf hanging from the tree
I'll still be here waiting on the breeze to bring you down to me
And if it takes forever
Forever it'll be
And if it takes forever
Forever it'll be
And if you should be the last seed in Spring to venture forth a leaf
I'll still be here waiting on the rain to warm your heart for me
And if it takes forever
Forever it'll be
And if it takes forever
Forever it'll be

You and everyone else all at once
You were beautiful, you were beautiful
In the dream you were just like you are

You loved everyone like a sovereign
Half magnanimous, half unimpressed
And I was talkin' too much, and I was tryin' too hard
In the dream it was just like it is

Everything was so simple
Things are and they always will be
Oh you are the answer to the question that is me
Yeah in the dream it was just like it is

We were captive there in a prison
Where everyone was guilty by mistake
It was infinite, It was infinite
In the dream it was just like it is

And I, I asked, is that good for you
You said "no probably not
But everybody needs to get through the night
And love is all we've got

Yeah in the dream it was just like it is
In the dream it was just like it is

In the dream you were someone different
You and everyone else all at once
You were beautiful, you were beautiful
In the dream you were just like you are

In the shallowest part of the night while you quietly slept,
I lay here and I counted the hours to the sound of your breath.

Can’t you love me?
Can’t you love me how I want, please?

I went walking down on Second Street through the leaves and the clutter.
In the pale yellow sodium light, nothing has any color.

Can’t you love me?
Can’t you love me how I want, please?

At first there was
there was just no question
who wouldn't rather be there reflection
when i get here everything was cold and perfect
when i get here everything was cold and perfect

It was clear and bright
like a mid-winter sunlight
my heart beat counting down a moment precise and quiet
(I love how I sit my own reflection helpless
I love how you saw my overworld and helpless)

Chorus:
but IIII
What have I done what have i done
oooooo (OH) what have I done
ooohhhh what have i done
my god what have i done
oooo (OH) what have I done
ooh what have i done

as time went on
you could feel a silence
solidifying
the sound of my thoughts parylizing
I tried to come back to and melt the glass and perfect
I tried to come back to and melt the glass and perfect

chorus:
but IIIII
What have I done what have i done
oooooo (OH) what have I done
ooohhhh what have i done
my god what have i done
oooh oooo what we can pay
to get what you want
oooh to get what you want
oh what have i done

Every day is the same
we're praying for rain
when it finally came
oh when it came
everyday was the same
still praying for rain

repeat 5x

All of the astronauts
Champagne in plastic cups
Waiting for the big hero to show
Outside the door he stands
His head in his hands
And his heart in his throat

What can he tell them now
Sorry I let you down
Sorry it wasn't quite true
But don't get hung up on it
Just solider on with it
And good luck with shooting the moon

Shooting the moon
Shooting the moon
The moon
Shooting the moon

All of the principals
Generals, admirals
And the podium lit with the spotlight
The crowd buzzes quietly
Waiting expectantly
Like it's opening night

What can he tell them now
Sorry I let you down
Sorry it wasn't quite true
But don't get hung up on it
Just solider on with it
And good luck with shooting the moon

Shooting the moon
Shooting the moon
The moon
Shooting the moon
