Runaway 03:51
We’ll stay up through the night And the rest of the end of December Nothing is forever You’re just a young one You’re a runaway It doesn’t take very much To feel sick of this place We’ll stagger crooked under the sky While snow drifts in delicate waves Feeling like we’re rushing through stars in space You’re just a young one You’re a runaway Unlike the babies born and grown You were so much older and alone You’re just a young one You’re a runaway I wouldn’t tell you what is what Or try to make you stay But you’ve got to know That we’re connected More than either of us expected And if we follow any road Whatever path you can envision We’re an inevitable collision
2.
Come and control me Take me over with ease I’ll make promises I can’t keep Tell me what to do, please? I hate to beg to be yours I’m sure you’ve been here before I’m only one grand gesture away Anticipating what you’ve got to say Peering over your poker face But you stow your thoughts safe As much as I’d like to understand I’d never want to force your hand
3.
While you were sleeping, I was working I’m not sure if you even heard me As I sang you the gentlest songs I knew You had fallen asleep after an hour or two Of talking Of wanting To close the needless Gaps between us Last night, we spoke until morning Time flew right by, without any warning You dozed off, and I did the same I’ve never been this close to someone a country away From talking And wanting To close the needless Gaps between us To see you What that leads to Is a dream by itself That I wouldn’t share with anyone else

Wasp Nest 04:16
Wasp Nest You tell me you like my name When I see yours come up, I feel the same You think you’ll wind down with piano My, my, I’d love to hear you play I think it’ll wind up my hive of a heart My, my, I’d love to hear you, if that’s okay I know I’ve said there’s a wasp nest Sometimes it rings in my chest I believe there’s a plan in mind My, my, I love this orchestra in a case When I’m wound up by my hive of a heart My, my, I’d love for you to hear them play My, my, I could burst And I’m sure it wouldn’t even hurt
5.
When I was looking for someone new You shuffled in out of the blue And you weren’t just anyone else I was a little less all by myself We don’t go to all the same films But I would watch yours if you’ll watch mine still We might have separate philosophies That may mean we’re each other’s to complete You could live deep in an adjacent state Or west of my place, somewhere along Main Our souls are timeless and everywhere So, I find it’s hard to really care That you’re wherever you are You’re not very far away If we wish on the same stars You’re not very far away [x3] I was alone before I knew you then I don’t think you know how much you’ve meant That’s so much pressure to put on a person I just met The weight of all that pain you make me forget
6.
We dove in on opposite sides of a sea of people Unruly tides against which we push, and we pull I don’t know about you, but I was drowning Though in no time at all, you somehow found me You came surrounded by your own vignette Or I had tunnel vision, or whatever I seem to forget I wasn’t thinking much of the current circumstances But rather falling and writhing in dazzling trances I didn’t hear you speak, I just stared I’ve been waiting for this for so long And you don’t seem to care But if you do, please darling, tell me what you want We make a handsome pair And you don’t seem to believe I’m wrong If we’re going somewhere I never need to hear another dancing song
7.
Do you remember falling out like I remember falling out It’s difficult to recall when we are where we are now I’m fine with forgetting what led here as long as you are here And if you’re game being close, I’ll do my best to be near You can stay the night Stay as long you’d like If it feels right, only if it feels right I truly don’t mind Not after so much time Coming back really seems right, do you think it seems right You argue that you’re different, you promise you’ve got shame But I swear with rhythms like this, what at all has really changed I haven’t forgotten what happened, all I know is that it doesn’t matter Finding you again reminds me of old wounds, but they heal a little faster
8.
Restless eyes close, maybe it'll go away Please rest tomorrow, bring a satisfying day The restless urge of love that's worth to burning for Maybe it's that one consuming love to give you more Any thought could be the beginning of the brand new tangled web you're spinning Anyone could be your brand new love Any tithe that holds can be broken, and tear your bitter world from the open Anyone could be your brand new love You won't be the first, the twisted change is normal Gossan dirt whispered to the nodding head, thrilled you fell apart instead of them 'Cause they will 'Cause any hope for love can be killed If you need a different face, it's definitely time to destroy this place Any thought could be the beginning of the brand new tangled web you're spinning Anyone could be your brand new love Follow what you feel, you alone decide what's real Anyone could be your brand new love
9.
Look for kindred spirits They won't leave you behind I've been looking for kindred spirits That won't leave me behind I think I hear them calling I'm looking for kindred spirits That won't leave me behind I wish I could hear them calling And if you could hear them calling You finally could call one darling If you could hear them calling So, look for kindred spirits They won't leave you behind
