LYRICS
WHITE NOISE
Verse 1:
Living in a blur
Feels like a different world
Living ain’t the same
Now we dance a different way
Pre-Chorus:
Home’s got a different meaning, meaning, yeah
Home’s got a different feeling
And we can’t get away
Chorus:
Life is white noise
I wish I had a choice
I wanna kiss, wanna hug, wanna dance in a crowd
Life is white noise
I guess that’s how it goes
I wanna run, wanna go, wanna scream out loud
White noise, white noise
White noise, white noise
Verse 2:
When I go to sleep
I better have a fantasy
Like Alice walking ‘round in a twisted wonderland
Will this circus end?
Pre-Chorus:
Home’s got a different meaning, meaning, yeah
Home’s got a different feeling
And we can’t get away
Chorus:
Life is white noise
I wish I had a choice
I wanna kiss, wanna hug, wanna dance in a crowd
Life is white noise
I guess that’s how it goes
I wanna run, wanna go, wanna scream out loud
White noise, white noise
White noise, white noise
White noise, white noise
White noise, white noise
Bridge:
I know it’s temporary, temporary, temporary
But feels like forever
I know it’s temporary, temporary, temporary
But feels like forever
Chorus:
Life is white noise
I wish I had a choice
I wanna kiss, wanna hug, wanna dance in a crowd
Life is white noise
I guess that’s how it goes
I wanna run, wanna go, wanna scream out loud
White noise, white noise
White noise, white noise
White noise, white noise
Life is white noise
RUNAWAY
Verse 1:
No one ever really wants to be a runaway
But it’s harder to be someone else and to stay
No one ever really wants to be up this late
No one ever, no one ever
No one ever wants to feel like a criminal
But it’s hard to live your life in the subliminal
No one ever wants to disobey
But it’s too late, it’s too late
Chorus:
Hey! It’s not nice to see you
But it’s nice to meet you again
for the first time
With no more lies
Hey! It’s not nice to see you
But it’s nice to meet you again
for the first time
with no more lies
Post-Chorus:
Breathe it in
Breathe it in
Breathe it out again
Breathe it in
Breathe it in
Breathe it out again
Breathe it in
Breathe it in
You’re a runaway
A runaway
A runaway
Verse 2:
No one ever really wants to be that different
But it’s hard when everyone is so damn ignorant
Can’t keep this feeling inside my head
When the old me is dying, dying, dead
Chorus:
Hey! It’s not nice to see you
But it’s nice to meet you again
for the first time
With no more lies
Hey! It’s not nice to see you
But it’s nice to meet you again
for the first time
with no more lies
Post-chorus:
Breathe it in
Breathe it in
Breathe it out again
Breathe it in
Breathe it in
Breathe it out again
Breathe it in
Breathe it in
You’re a runaway
A runaway
Bridge:
You didn’t go through that
Didn’t lose that
Only choose facts
To be used at
You’re invasive
Can’t be traced in
Or erased and
I’m not phased in
To those channels anymore
I don’t fit in anymore
Chorus:
Hey! It’s not nice to see you
But it’s nice to meet you again
for the first time
With no more lies
Hey! It’s not nice to see you
But it’s nice to meet you again
for the first time
with no more lies
Post-chorus:
Breathe it in
Breathe it in
Breathe it out again
Breathe it in
Breathe it in
Breathe it out again
Breathe it in
Breathe it in
You’re a runaway
A runaway
LIGHTS GO DOWN
Verse 1:
Just say it
Stop playing
Say your feelings
rearrange them
Sing on the streets
Sing in the sheets
Sing to the ones
tapping their feet
So give me a beat
sell it for free
Make something the world
has never seen
With a guitar
a tiny car
2000 miles
To play at a bar
Chorus:
Climbing to the top to fall a long way down
Singing to myself when nobody’s around
Lights on my name ‘til the lights go out
Lights on my name ‘til the lights go down
Da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-down
Da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-down
Verse 2:
If you go high
I’ll go low
Take a shot or two
Or let it blow up
Into nothing
Into something
Into someone
Keep it coming
Never been the best
Or the smartest
Never given up
After failing a test
Can’t read me
Don’t need me
Can’t be me
So don’t be me
Chorus:
Climbing to the top to fall a long way down
Singing to myself when nobody’s around
Lights on my name ‘til the lights go out
Lights on my name ‘til the lights go down
Da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-down
Da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-down
Bridge:
I’ll rise above it
I’ll reach for it
I’ll try once again
I have it in me
And you will see
That this is not the end
Chorus:
Cause I’m climbing to the top
Singing to myself
Lights on my name ‘til the lights go out
Lights on my name ‘til the lights go down
Climbing to the top to fall a long way down
Singing to myself when nobody’s around
Lights on my name ‘til the lights go out
Lights on my name ‘til the lights go down
Da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-down
Da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-down
SIDE
Verse 1:
I know whose side you’re on
When the end of the night is long
I know who’s bed you’re in
And where your thoughts have been
Pre-chorus 1:
You only have one person on your mind
Just the one you know you’ll lay beside
At the end of the day, it’s all just the same
And you’re gonna say, we’ll be alright
Chorus 1:
‘Cause I’m on your side side side side
Yeah, all the time time time time
I know you’re mine mine mine
I’m on your side side side
Side side side
Oooh
Verse 2:
I know you’re anxious when
Your hand is in my hand
I’ll tell you we’re okay
And that I won’t go away
Pre-Chorus 2:
I only have one person on my mind
Just the one I know I’ll lay beside
At the end of the day, it’s all just the same
And I’m gonna say, we’ll be alright
Chorus 2:
‘Cause I’m on your side side side side
Yeah, all the time time time time
I know you’re mine mine mine
I’m on your side side side
Bridge:
You know it’s you and me against the world
We built a castle ‘gainst the pain and hurt
And no matter what we’re battlin’
We will never let the monsters in
Chorus 3:
‘Cause I’m on your side side side side
Yeah, all the time time time time
I’m yours and you are mine
I’m on your side side side
Side side side
I’m on your side side side side
Yeah, all the time time time time
I’m yours and you are mine
I’m on your side side side
Side side side
STARTED A FIRE
Verse 1:
I’m tired of being second best
I’m sick of the feeling when they choose someone else
I’m tired of knocking at this door
That everyone’s been at before
Chorus:
I started a fire
I’m gonna let it burn
I lit up a match
’Cause this is our turn
You’ve been leaving us out for far too long
You’ll never let us in
So we’ll just burn it all to the ground
Ground
Verse 2:
I’ve been working my soul to the bone
You’ve tried to stop my fire it continues to grow
I have an anger inside that has nowhere to go
Someday I hope you learn that this world isn’t yours to own
Chorus
Bridge:
Oooh, oooh
Chorus
I started a fire
I’m gonna let it burn
I lit up a match
’Cause this is our turn
I started a fire
I’m gonna let it burn
I lit up a match
’Cause this is our turn
You’ve been leaving us out for far too long
You’ll never let us in
So we’ll just burn it all to the ground
Ground
Ground
