These and Other Days EP

Wake up by the sun light Get up when you know you can rise Without falling, falling to your knees Maybe it's your last chance For a fairytale Paris romance To live life and love Like a lowlife, and give it All you can (all you can) Maybe it's not quite what you thought You can't have it all your way You can't have it all your way Over the last ten years I built a pocketbook up of my fears And watched the world in pictures When did we all become the victims Of exchange It's not a game (but it is a game) Every day is new but it's the same to me Maybe it's not quite what you thought You can't have it all your way You can't have it all your way

When I was much younger, about seventeen I stepped off a train, thought that I could be free I've tried so many beds, but I can't find the key 'cause wherever I go, I'm still there with me And I fear for success, oh I prey for survival I can't sleep at night, no matter what I do And I hope and I prey for the best I don't think I'm living it right Is it something that's meant to be easy to find I play for ambition and doubt How were we ever meant to figure it out I don't think that it is so bad I've still got the days that are yet to be had There's so much to live in this life that we're given The train rolling on and the rocks in the river Are fading away like my memories of you But every new day I meet someone new And I hope and I prey for the best I don't think I'm living it right Is it something that's meant to be easy to find I play for ambition and doubt How were we ever meant to figure it out

Walking backwards and I'm off balance 'cause I think I got the blues It's raining heavy now and I'm scared because I think I'm loosing you And I remember when, In the summer when We'd sit out on the lawn It wasn't cloudy then, it was warm back then Now I'm stuck inside the gloom Your eyes like diamonds Your skin like gold (it's like gold) Why can't I fly away Why can't I leave today Why can't I fly away To who I'll be someday You feel so close that I could reach out and touch you But you're never really there It's hard to be the one who cares When I know you don't (you don't) Your eyes like diamonds Your skin like gold (it's like gold) Why can't I fly away Why can't I leave today Why can't I fly away To who I'll be someday It's something like the last time.
