Lyrics

Ollie:

You and me
Walk at night on tired suburban streets
Something to see
A different kind of living for a change
Silent and still
Posies on the window sill
And taking a peak
At what is on the TV screen

The daily mutter
Oh my brother

Oliver honestly I’m scared
What is to know and what’s out there?
I’ll say it out loud
I’m not feeling to proud
I’ve been feeling a bit down for a while
But you said that it’ll all work out some how

Waiting to see
If this is just another lucid dream
Lost on me
Hey But you said it will be alright

So keep your promise
Cus beyond this, oh

Oliver honestly I’m scared
What is to know and what’s out there?
I’ll say it out loud
I’m not feeling to proud
I’ve been feeling a bit down for a while
But you said that it’ll all work out some how

Waiting on the morning light, with you
Sing a song to keep out those blues
Ooo
You belong with me
Ollie…

Oliver honestly I’m scared
What is to know and what’s out there?
I’ll say it out loud
I’m not feeling to proud
I’ve been feeling a bit down for a while
But you said that it’ll all work out so
I been feeling a bit down for a while but you said that it all work out so
I been feeling about down for a while but I know that it’ll all work out somehow
Oliver

Your Colors:

You spend your days
Hidden away
Beauty and grace that the world has yet to see
Me I’m a fool, dreaming of you
Watching the clock till your finally free

When the night is drawing near
You come to life and love appears
It’s true, there’s nothing and no one like
Green and blue and purple too
Your colors fill my point of view
It’s true, there’s nothing and no one like you

When I see your light across the way
Glowing up the window where you stay
The dark of the night sets your stage

Some don’t believe in you
They’ll never know the truth
You’re just beyond their perception of view

When the night is drawing near
You come to life and love appears
It’s true, there’s nothing and no one like
Green and blue and purple too
Your colors fill my point of view
It’s true
There’s nothing and no one
Pure serotonin
Like you

Lonely Song:

I’ve heard it all before
You told me once, you told me twice
Feet sunken in the floor
I never could heed advice

I learn the hard way
At least that’s what my mom says
Cus it’s an uphill battle I’ve been fighting for a while

I sit at home and write another lonely song for me
I sit at home all night and be my own worst company
Why must it feel so right
I sit at home and write another sappy melody

So I lay awake in bed
To think of stupid things I’ve said
I’ll never get a rest
Tossing, turning with regret

I learn the hard way
Living in my dog days
Cus it’s an uphill battle I’ve been fighting for a while

I sit at home and write another lonely song for me
I sit at home all night and be my own worst company
Why must it feel so right
I sit at home and write another sappy melody

Need an escape from all the static in my head
Need a display for all the things I left unsaid
Something to show for always betting on myself in silence
So silent

I sit at home and write another lonely song for me
I sit at home all night and be my own worst company
Why must it feel so right
I sit at home and write another sappy melody

Birdy’s World:

Birdy’s spent a long long time wasting away in her hometown
Says she’ll find her peace of mind
She has a plan for a way out

Once she sets aside the funds
She’ll be steady on the run
From a world full of worries

Birdy works a 9-5 down at the Alamo station
She was taught to bide her time
But she’s growing weary of patience

So once she’s lifted off the ground
She will all but turn around
Now

Birdy deserves the world
She deserves to be happy
Birdy deserves the world
She deserves to be free
Birdy deserves a chance to be what she wants to be

“This is your captain speaking
It’s looking like we’re going to be in for a rocky flight,
But I think we’ll be just fine
Fly on birdy, fly on”

So birdy’s getting on that flight
She’ll be flying through the night
To the world…

Birdy deserves the world
She deserves to be happy
Birdy deserves the world
She deserves to be free
Birdy deserves the chance to be whatever she wants to be

Birdy’s world woah x 4

Flatline:

You’ve hit a flatline
So make your own pass times if you have to
Just don’t be a statue
Cus it’s never a dull situation your ordinary life

You cross your fingers
Hold on tight

It’s alright if we don’t get to sleep tonight
It’s alright we gonna see the morning light

The expectations of your generation are ambitious
Consuming vicious
Get used to some time
The land mines
In ordinary life

You cross your fingers
Hold on tight

It’s alright, go easy on yourself tonight
It’s alright, you’ll settle where you want in time

Living Dysfunction:

It ain’t a favor
If you’re gonna hang it over my head
You’re not a savior
If you wanna live without any sense of your actions cus you have half a heart

You got me where you wanted
I can’t even start to put up fight
Living in dysfunction
I really hope you’re sleeping better tonight

All of the sudden
No one really wants to be around you
How could this have happened?
When you’re keeping track of everything that’s getting underneath your skin

You got me where you wanted
I can’t even start to put up fight
Living in dysfunction
I really hope you’re sleeping better tonight

Deep down you’re hurting
It’s no good reason to be a shitty person

Ooo yeah

You’re gonna end up lonely
If everything’s about you getting your way
You’re gonna end up lonely
Even though you’re in control today

Lost Island Man:

You didn’t even notice
You were out of focus
Stranded on an island far from view

And by the time you realized
The ship had sailed like 15 miles
You acted as if you already knew

Lost island man
What’s your plan
Will you wait around, till your found

Or is this what you wanted? To never be discovered out here

You seem to have made a life here
Lost at sea for light years
I don’t think I pity you at all
Well do you ever miss her?
Don’t you know your kids hurt
Wondering if daddy’s coming home

Lost island man
What’s your plan
Will you wait around, till your found

Or is this what you wanted to live a life out into the blue

Do you recognize all of the rubble in your wake?
Future drifters following the trails of your mistakes
Don’t you know that life exists beyond your little isle?
I guess you’ll always live like, I guess you’ll always be like a child

Lost island man
What’s your plan
Will you wait around, till you’re found

Or is this what you wanted? To never be discovered out here

Or is this what you wanted? To live a life without any clue
No clue

Around the Bend:

I’ve been waiting for you
To break away from the gloom
And all that’s holding you down
To save yourself

So won’t you make a plan
Where you’re no martyr, my friend
And you can live out your life
For yourself

Staying on the fence
Never made much sense

There’s no reason to be lonely tonight
There’s no reason to keep it inside
Keep your head up and I’ll see you around the bend

Is this what where you wanted to be
Indifferent to your apathy
And all cus you like to play safe but deep down
You would love some change

Don’t let time get past
Where it kept you last

There’s no reason to be lonely tonight
There’s no reason to keep it inside
Keep your head up and I’ll see you around the bend
There’s no reason to be lonely tonight
There’s no reason to keep it inside
Keep your head up and I’ll see you around the bend

In Your Heart:

You need a flashlight
In the dark of all the haze
I’ll be your hot line
If you love me all the same
Seeing your shadow isn’t scary as it seems
You’re long overdue for some familiar company

Ooo ooo things are gonna get better if you hold on, hold on, hold tight

I’ll be in your heart
As long as you’ll hold me
Yeah I’ll be in your heart
For if you ever fall apart
I’ll be in your heart

I’ll be a warm wind blowing through a wilted tree
Hanging above you as you find some shade to read
I’ll be a day glow in the hills above the road
A guardian angel if you follow where it goes

Ooo ooo things are gonna get easier bow
If you hold on, hold on, hold on tight

I’ll be in your heart
As long as you’ll hold me
Yeah I’ll be in your heart
For if you ever fall apart
I’ll be in your heart

Ooo ooo things are gonna get better if you hold on, hold on, hold tight

I’ll be in your heart
As long as you’ll hold me
Yeah I’ll be in your heart
For if you ever fall apart
Heavy on my heart
Ooo

It’s Over Now:

Chin up
Easy my friend
I will defend all your light

A hard day
At your wits end
Come steady up your mind

Let the sound understand

You could laugh but it’s
It’s over now or
You could cry but it’s over now it’s over now it’s over now

Come on
Just you and me
We’ll walk with no place in mind
To wander softly lit streets
Where shadows come to life

Almost as if to say

You could laugh but it’s
It’s over now ooor
You could cry but it’s over now it’s over now it’s over now

Don’t let the lows let you feel like you’ll never get up
Cus from the way down there’s only looking up

You could laugh but it’s
It’s over now, it’s over now, it’s over now
You could cry but it’s over now it’s over now it’s over now

You could laugh away those tears
Or you could cry away those years x2
