OK 04:12
There’s confusion on the radio Someone else has lost control There is something on my mind tonight There’s a shadow on my soul Ch: And she turns and says to me (You are OK, we are OK) We can be happy you and me (You are OK, we are OK) And she turns and says to me (You are OK, we are OK) We can be happy wait and see (You are OK, we are OK) If I had it all to do again I would do it all and more I would dig a little deeper Travel to a further shore A million stars are up there, hidden behind the clouds I put a record on and turn it up very, very, very loud

Cordless 04:17
You are out of control You are out of control You’re a dying ember, but You are out of control And I never heard the words that could have changed things And I never said the words that could have changed things You are out of control You are out of control You’re a dying ember, but You are out of control And I never saw the need to keep you floating And I never gave you a reason to believe me

Everybody’s talking ‘bout the future No one wants to talk about the past Seems that there is no time for reflection Everybody lives their life too fast No one wants to talk about the problem “Won’t make any difference,” they say Many things are better left unspoken Many things don’t need the light of day Ch: But she doesn’t haven’t to live there any more The open road’s behind an open door She doesn’t have to live there any more The open road’s behind an open door Everybody’s talking ‘bout the future No one wants to talk about the past But maybe there’s a chance she can outrun it Maybe she can find some peace at last

I want to drive to the north, see chameleon bones I don’t like the east, but I do like the west It’s OK, you know it’s gonna be OK I want to drive through the night, I’ve grown tired of this town I don’t like the sun, how it beats on my face But it’s OK, you know it’s gonna be OK Ch: And is there any question that can’t be answered with a compass and a map? Each line is a suggestion, to keep you moving with your compass and your map I want to drive to the north, see chameleon bones I don’t like the east, but I do like the West It’s OK, you know it’s gonna be OK

Fall Around 04:07
Well I never thought I’d say it, but the moonlight is enough And I’m feeling beat and dusty and I don’t know who to trust Well I’m dreaming and defiant and she knows it’s not enough But it’s rainy and I’m drowning and I’ve never seen you blush Ch: You should know my one and only song And I’d fall around your beauty but I know that you are gone You should know my one and only song And I’d fall around your beauty but I know that you are gone Well I’m taken by this summer shine, it’s chaos and it’s blind And I don’t feel like it’s ending but it’s coming true this time

Hold my tongue Close my eyes Still I will not hear you Still I will not see Train of thought A final choice Still I will not hide A single memory I will not hide I cannot hide Hold my tongue Close my eyes Still I will not hear you

Did you ever think you could change my world? Well, I’d like to think you will Did you ever think we’d be standing here at this time? And I never got the warning ‘bout the sunlight in the morning And it nearly drove me blind But I think I’m going to make it Yeah, I think that I will be fine Ch: And you are here You are here Did you ever wish that you could see through time To find out how this will end? Did you ever hope for a moment just like this? And I think that we are learning that the world will keep on turning And will bring us back around To this place among the thousands We are lucky we have found
