Learn To Release
03:44

Go let the fear all pass you like water in a stream - don't let it feed you
Your thoughts might come from a good place but they're defeating you
No need to feel empty again
Swallow what you can't comprehend
I have to learn to release
Learn to keep my mind at ease
I have to learn to release
Learn to keep my mind at ease
Hold your breath for a moment and take it all in but don't jump too soon now
Your mind is racing with no sign of slowing down but take your time now
No need to feel empty again
Use this time to try comprehend
I have to learn to release
Learn to keep my mind at ease
I have to learn to release
Learn to keep my mind at ease
Learn to release
Learn to release
Everything can go at a different pace
Everything will find their place
Learn to release
Learn to release
Learn to release
Learn to release
Learn to release
Learn to release

Keep You Safe
04:09

I promise to keep you safe
I promise that I'll keep you safe
I’ll keep you safe from all the things we can’t understand
I’ll be the one who knows how to pretend
And when you’re empty I’ll give a little more
More than I’ve got but I know I can spare
I promise to keep you safe
I promise to keep you safe
It’s alright to need me
It’s alright to need me
‘Cause I know you scared
Please understand me when I say I’m trying
But holding back has never been my best way of fighting
And when I’m alone I run through everything
More than I should but I can’t help what I do
I promise to keep you safe
I promise to keep you safe
It’s alright to need me
It’s alright to need me
‘Cause I know you scared

Momentary
03:40
|

One time you look across at me
You're the clearest vision I can see like you give a damn
But you take up empty space just a moment later
And you seem like a waster just a moment later
I don't handle regret well
You make me feel old and bitter
But surely everything isn't momentary
Everything isn't momentary
Everything isn't momentary
Something will hold and something will stay
It's all of the things I need
All the things I want - sometimes I need to slow down
But I don't handle mistakes well
I just want to get it one time, I just want to get it right one time
But surely everything isn't momentary
Everything isn't momentary
Everything isn't momentary
Something will hold and something will stay
I often try to comprehend why I even bother
But any excuse is making me lose my way
Crystal clear sight 'cause one day I might stumble
Doesn't everyone?
Doesn't everyone?
But surely everything isn't momentary
Everything isn't momentary
Everything isn't momentary
Something will hold and something will stay

Daydreams
02:55
|

I wanna wake up next to you
And tell you every morning how much I care about you
Why do we spend these night apart?
It tears me down each evening that I'm not lying with you
'Cause we are headed in the right direction but I want to speed up the process
And I catch myself slipping in and out of daydreams
But I don't want to make another mess
Whisper something in my ear
And tell me all the ways that you really care about me
Can't we just lie hear all day?
I like the way I think about you when you're not with me
'Cause we are headed in the right direction but I want to speed up the process
And I catch myself slipping in and out of daydreams
But I don't want to make another mess

Colour Me
03:55
|

You said that I’m not real and I don’t know what’s good for me
And maybe I’m lying to myself
You think that I am greedy just for wanting to be happy
Well maybe you shouldn’t care
‘Cause you have tried to stand in our way for too long
And I am not the only one that’s hurting
The gathering of us will never end
’Til we’re no longer just an us
Colour me hopeful
Colour my wishes
Colour all I can see and even what I can’t
The foggy air will clear and all will see there wreckage
That you’ve created with your thoughts
But I don’t blame you, I just want you to see the man I am
And maybe see what I’m worth
‘Cause you have tried to stand in our way for too long
And I am not the only one that’s hurting
The gathering of us will never end
’Til we’re no longer just an us
Colour me hopeful
Colour my wishes
Colour all I can see and even what I can’t
