That day, That day
What a mess what a marvel
I walked into that cloud again
And I lost myself
And I'm sad, sad, sad
Small, alone, scared
Craving purity
A fragile mind and a gentle spirit

That day, That day,
What a marvelous mess
This is all that I can do
I'm done to be me
Sad, scared, small, alone, beautiful
It's supposed to be like this
I accept everything
It's supposed to be like this

That day, That day
I lay down beside myself
In this feeling of pain, sadness
Scared, small, climbing, crawling
Towards the light
And it's all that I see and
I'm tired and I'm right
And I'm wrong
And it's beautiful

That day, That day
What a mess, what a marvel
We're all the same
But no one thinks so
And it's okay
And I'm small and I'm divine
And it's beautiful
And it's coming
And it's already here
And it's absolutely perfect

That day, That day
When everything was a mess
And everything was in place
And there's too much hurt
Sad, small, scared, alone
And everyone's a cynic
And it's hard and it's sweet
But it's supposed to be like this

That day, That day
When I sat in the sun
And I thought and I cried
Cause I'm sad, scared, small
Alone, strong
And I'm nothing and I'm true
Only a brave man can break through
And it's all okay
Yeah, it's okay

That day, That day
I lay down beside myself
In this feeling of pain, sadness
Scared, small, climbing, crawling
Towards the light
And it's all that I see and
I'm tired and I'm right
And I'm wrong
And it's beautiful

That day, That day
What a mess, what a marveleous mess
We're all the same
But no one thinks so
And it's okay
And I'm small and I'm divine
And it's beautiful
And it's coming
And it's already here
And it's absolutely perfect

That day, That day
That day, That day

That day, That day
When I lay down beside myself
In this feeling of pain, sadness
Scared, small, climbing, crawling
Towards the light
And it's all that I see and
I'm tired and I'm right
And I'm wrong
And it's beautiful

That day, That day
What a mess, what a marveleous mess
We're all the same
But no one thinks so
And it's okay
And I'm small and I'm divine
And it's beautiful
And it's coming
And it's already here
And it's absolutely perfect

That day, That day
That day, That day
That day, That day
That day, That day

So sweet, can you feel it? (Can you feel it?)
Are you here?
Are you with me?
I can feel it
And its beautiful

That day, That day
That day, absolutely perfect

Here it comes again
Cannot outrun my desire
Cover my descent
And throw the beauty on the fire

Drawn towards the edge
Do I assume I could fly?
Every secret shared
Why do I drink the feelings dry?
Don't go too far
Limitation scars

Tonight, could I be lost forever
To drown my soul in Sensory Pleasure?

Here it comes again
You raise the bar even higher
I cannot catch my breath
So throw the beauty on the fire
Don't push too hard
Limitation scars

Tonight, could I be lost forever
To drown my soul in Sensory Pleasure?

Sensory Pleasure
Sensory Pleasure
Sensory Pleasure
Could I be lost forever?

Do I assume I could fly?

Tonight, could I be lost forever
To drown my soul in Sensory Pleasure?

Sensory Pleasure
Sensory Pleasure
Sensory Pleasure
Could I be lost forever?

Do you lie awake in the morning
Trying to find a reason to call me
Cause honey all that I've been doing
Is thinking about your smile
But none of this is necessary-
with me baby
You see baby
Cause I like to keep it all simple

Cause you are my Satellite
(burning up, burning up satellite)
So Im trying to keep you in sight
(so you might wanna just sit tight)
But with all this space
Can we keep it alive
Keep it alive
So Im asking you baby
Are you coming down tonight

Theres something in the air tonight
That feels right
But you're keeping me guessing and Im-
finding it hard to catch your eye
So move a little closer
Its alright
I know what you're thinking
You've been circling me for a while

Cause you are my Satellite
(burning up, burning up satellite)
So Im trying to keep you in sight
(so you might wanna just sit tight)
But with all this space
Can we keep it alive
Keep it alive
So Im asking you baby
Are you coming down tonight

Calling out, calling out
Haven't you wondered
Why I'm always alone
When you're in my dreams
Calling out, calling out
Haven't you wondered
Why you're finding it hard
just looking at me

I want you
But I want you to understand
I need you
I love you

CHORUS
Didn't want to leave you with-
the wrong impression
Didn't want to leave you with my-
last confession(yeah)
Of love
Wasn't trying to pull you in the-
wrong direction
All I wanna do is try to make-
a connection(yeah)
Of love

Falling out, falling out
Have you ever wondered
If this was ever more than a
crazy idea
Falling out, falling out
Have you ever wondered
What we could've been, if you'd
only let me in

I want you
But I want you to understand
I miss you
I love you

CHORUS

Have you ever wondered?

I need you
I love you

CHORUS(x2)

I didn't want to leave you there
I'm calling out (yeah)
Wasn't trying to pull you in the wrong direction
Well I'm calling out (yeah)
Wasn't trying to pull you in the wrong direction
I'm calling out

Everyday's the same
I feel them merge
I try to separate
Resist the urge
But they tell me
I'll be fine
That it will all get better
Just try to write it down
Or put it in a letter
But the words won't play
And there's no
Easy way to say
Goodbye, goodbye

Keep my head on straight
And don't look down
With all I've pushed away
I'm losing ground
But they tell me
I'll be fine
That it will all get better
Just try to write it down
Or put it in a letter

But the words won't play
And there's no
Easy way to say
Goodbye, goodbye

And from the sidelines
Watch me fall down

And I don't understand
The things I do
But I'll probably be fine
As long as I keep moving
I'll try to write it down
So things just keep improving

Still the words won't play
'Cause there's no
Easy way to say
Goodbye, goodbye

It came on like a hurricane
And I don't understand
And it moved me like a slow dance
Still I don't understand
It pushed me like a tailwind
And I don't understand
And it came in through the back door
And I don't understand
Still I don't understand

You're all that I could be
And I'm falling on my knees

Hurricane
You pulled me out of the past
And landed me in today
Hurricane

It picked me like a cherry
And I don't understand
And it killed me with the craving
Still I don't understand
It thrilled me to starvation
And I don't understand
And it stripped me ugly naked
Still I don't understand
No I don't understand

Hurricane
You pulled me out of the past
And landed me in today
Hurricane
You pulled me out of the past
And walked me into tomorrow
Hurricane

You're all that I could need
And I'm falling on my knees
You're all that I could be
And I'm falling on my knees

Hurricane
You pulled me out of the past
And landed me in today
Hurricane

VERSE
Today we don't know who we are
Ashamed, hiding behind the scars
Too many times we let the things-
we feel
Get in the way of letting us heal-
the wounds
That open in the dark

CHORUS
Did you ever feel sunlight on your face
Did you ever taste clouds
Did you ever touch space
Did you ever feel sunlight on your face
Did you ever truly live

VERSE
So walk, in time to life's refrain
Relax, don't do it to yourself again
Decaying yourself with all the love
you won't give
Killing yourself about the way you-
don't live now
Cause you're not gonna live forever

CHORUS
Did you ever feel sunlight on your face
Did you ever taste clouds
Did you ever touch space
Did you ever feel sunlight on your face
Did you ever truly live

SPECIAL CHORUS
Did you ever feel sunlight on your face
Did you ever breathe hope
Did you ever dance with grace
Did you ever feel sunlight on your face
Did you ever truly live

When you beat on that drum
Talk in that tongue
Youre just scratching on-
the surface
So tell me what it means
A whisper to a scream
Slowly fades away

Then you wake up
And tomorrow is today
And youre crying, crying like-
a baby
Caught between the tides
(Did you lose your way)
You lost your way
(Did you lose your way)
You lost your way

Do you know where I've been
Walls are caving in
It moves across a wire
There no need to talk
I crawl as you walk
Pushing me away

MIDDLE
Flowers in the bin
Close this hole I'm in
Everything was one
Nothing gets undone
You pay the bill
You lost your will
Just run away until

VERSE
Swallow purple terror candy
Don't forget to breathe
Sickened by the wanting
And drowning from the need
This dichromatic vision
Of one who does not care
To sipping cocktail sedatives
Two months to hide somewhere

CHORUS
Butterflies, Butterflies
Cut the stomach out and hand it over
Butterflies, Butterflies
My heart will be the bridge that-
you walk over

VERSE
The wolf has caught the chicken
And now I feel unsteady
Emotions on the blink again
So kick me when you're ready
Here lies a violet coffin
The death of my control
Along with all my skeletons
They put them in the hole

VERSE
Sickened by the notion
I give myself again
Choking on the bullet, the gun-
thats found a friend
So raise your glass to sorrow
And drink to all the pain
Tie a silver ribbon around
The pieces that remain

CHORUS
Butterflies, Butterflies
Cut the stomach out and hand it over
Butterflies, Butterflies
My heart will be the bridge that-
you walk over

Her bones will ache
Her mouth will shake
And as the passion dies
Her magic heart will break
She'll fly to France
Cause theres no chance
No hope for Cinderella
Come September

Everything wrong
Gonna be alright
Come September

Her violet sky
Will need to cry
Cause if it doesn't rain
Then everything will die
She needs to heal
She needs to feel
Something more than tender
Come September

Everything wrong
Gonna be alright
Come September

The souls that burn
Will twist and turn
and find you in the dark
No matter where you run
She's made her mark
But lost her spark
And what she's pushing for
She can't remember

Everything wrong
Gonna be alright
Come September

Her eyes surrender, her cry a
crying shame
Coming undone is she ever gonna
feel the same

She will run
She's gonna drink the sun
Shining just for you
Instead of everyone
And so it goes
She'll stand alone
And try not to remember
Come September

Everything wrong
Gonna be alright
Come September
