Closer 05:09
Under strange skies we cling on lost trails, Let's dream less, for soon we'll be there, With your dead romance, I suffer in your arms, but find a way where we come undone Skies surround, her ghost lays a path, if she whispers your name will you wake? Twilight burns our secrets, Follow her and soon we'll be there With your dead romance, I suffer in your arms, but find a way to bleed into one we find a way where we come undone
2.
Watch the stars deliver Hearts seized, we defy and enter A strange return, I just heard you whisper Trip on mystic, we can steal forever If we miss it, we can dream forever Time filled, your wish calls but at what cost? Gazing into the night should our kite fall Don’t stop, I just heard you whisper Trip on mystic, we can steal forever In our dream forever Us dreamers dine to fade in more Wasting our lives to see much more Tracing stars while we fade in more Wasting our lives to see much more Tracing stars while we fade in more

Sophia 05:07
I thought you might sway closer each day, All I wish I could say but you shy away. Our eyes engage but I can't see who's nearer. As clouds embrace you pull away I fear. I'm here, I'm here. Find a way to make me stay so near. Find a way and make me stay so near. I'm here I'm here I'm here So Near

Chemistry 04:36
Bring me down to where you sleep Soothe me now, sing with my screams Touch me now while I can’t see At least half your life is wrapped in peace Dream warm me with chemistry, your chemistry She’s warming, It’s alright, It’s alright, There’s more in you Warm me, It’s alright now, The wonder of you The chemistry, Your chemistry Dream warm me, With chemistry, your chemistry She watches me, She watches me, More than the eyes inside

Never alone, Never your own, Never alone, Never

Turn In You 03:57
A shy, shaded eye, blew my TV, I stare inside for one more scene, I know the curtain will rise for you, I'd hold the rope for you, I'll go if you want me to, And there I find the story realise a turn in you.
7.
There's a cold in my head, insulate me. There's the cut where i bled a pool of dreams. Open up, I'm out of touch, enlighten me. Draw the flood from the drug that's drowning me, You drown in me I fall apart, then you rescue me, And it's all that I want, all that I feel, you rescue me. So come on, let me out into your scene Bring me down, craving heart, revive the dream. As I move toward sun, I feel love, But your dart drove inside and turned me round, And I hope you'll be there in telepathy You're so cruel but you know it's what I need. I fall apart, then you rescue me, And it's all that I want, all that I feel, you rescue me. So come on, let me out into your scene You're so cruel but you know it's what I need. Still dreaming without you And I hope you'll be there in telepathy Just look around, hollow sound, you make us real Just look around, hollow sound, you make us real

Lost in your frame And we don’t seem real Where are you? Just wave away My sweet pale love Raise your veil over the eyes that you hide A delicate tear falls, glisten from a star, Upon i wish yeah Nothingness is all, tremble curling heart, That’s what i miss yeah I can’t let go, I can’t let go I don’t need to know now I don’t need to know, cause you're never far, Eyes that told me so much, Lies as words are woven, It'll never stop, how did it ever start?

A Nearer Sky 05:53
High streams, Guide me through clouds, Here you fall. Now heed their call. Open your eyes, The sky breathes tonight. Sunbirds draw you to a clearer sky, Storms now shun you my butterfly, Lay on your pillow, Wrapped up around your world, Something tells me you smile inside, Trading whispers with a nearer sky, Who’s alive. Tell me you feel the same, you never know Tell me you feel the same, you never know
