When, When lyrics - Civil Twilight

Wanna see the lights in your eyes
I wanna see the shadows on your face
I wanna see the mountains that you climb
I wanna see the rivers that you chase
Wanna lose, wanna lose
Wanna lose myself again
Something this beautiful should never go without a friend

When, when
When am I gonna see you again
When, when
When am I gonna see you again

Late September
I heard myself on the radio
There's a first time for everything
And then there's a time to go
So you walk through those doors
And you got on that airplane
And the question that's saying in my brain

When, when
When am I gonna see you again
When, when
When am I gonna see you again

I will be who I always was
I'll be who I've always been
A captain on the waves
A leaf in your ear
Nothing's the matter
It's just a matter of time
Even know that there's not a soul in the world
That can tell me when or why

When, when
When am I gonna see you again
When, when
When am I gonna see you again
Tell me when, when
When am I gonna see you again
When, when
When am I gonna see you again
(When am I, when am I, when am I)
When, when
When am I gonna see you again
(Tell me, tell me)
When, when
When am I gonna see you again
When am I, tell me now
Tell me when
When am I gonna see you again
(Tell me when am I)

Story Of An Immigrant lyrics - Civil Twilight

What am I to build
If my hands are broken?
If I'm not the chosen one
What am I to build?

Where is my heart beating
Somewhere under that water
If I drive will I get over
Will I join the deep?

So, love is still time
And dance the life that is eternal
And the words fall, no meaning
Change their feeling

Like a first born,
Ready to begin
Ready to begin

All of my possessions
They're lying on the backseat
I tidy and I clean but it's never neat
Such as my life

And so, I must have turn
And danced the life that is eternal
And the words fall, no meaning
Change their feeling

Like a first born
Ready to begin
Ready to begin

Just one step, just one step
Just one step, just one step

Let the frozen carry me
Over water to be free
Where the other half begins
Where she waits for me

Let the frozen carry me
Over water to be free
Where the other half begins
Where she waits for me

Let It Go lyrics - Civil Twilight

Sleep like a lion under cover warm
With the fury lying in your bones
Doubt is the warmth inside your coldest thought
Fear is the rope that drags you down
Just let it go
Just let it go

First of the first of the first son
Born on the night of a winter storm
The weight that you've carried for so long
It has made you tired, but it hasn't made you strong
Just let it go
Just let it go

Let it go, like I know you can, like I know you will
Let it fall, like the crumbling walls of Jericho
Let it go, let it go...

Let the wind pass through your fingers
And trying reaching out for me

Let it go, like the falling leaves of Babylon
Let it go, like I know you will, like I know you can
Come on man
Let it go
Let it go
Let it go
Let it go
Let it go...

Let it go
Let it go
Let it go

River Child lyrics - Civil Twilight

I never had a chance babe
My soul was chained and locked away
But some sort of miracle
Found me on that lonely day
Never thought it would be this easy
Never thought I would hear myself say
I would hear myself say

I'm running free, I'm running wild
I'm running like a river child
I'm running free, I'm running wild

Somewhere in the darkness
Somewhere in the distance
A voice is being born
From the life in your kiss
And all the valleys that were in my way
Lead me to this day
Lead me to this day

I'm feeling this way
I'm running free, I'm running wild
I'm running like a river child
I'm running free, I'm running wild

Somewhere in the morning
I feel a heat falling over me
Don't move your hand away
Without it I would surely break
Without it I would surely break

Somewhere in the morning
I feel a heat falling over me
The man that couldn't run
Is moving like a blazing sun
Like a blazing sun

I'm feeling this way
I'm running free, I'm running wild
I'm running like a river child
I'm running free, I'm running wild

All My Clothes lyrics - Civil Twilight

Out of the confusion, out of the ocean
She rose to the light, but never to see me
The rhythm and the flow, how do I let her know?
How do I explain the pathway to the sea?

I wanna take off all my clothes and be the truth
I wanna take off all my clothes for you

The heat of the window pane, the tingle of the rain
The voice of harmony sings to the full moon
The shoelace strings, the melody begins
The trembling hand conducting the symphony

I wanna take off all my clothes that you've never seen
I wanna take all these rags off of me
I wanna be the warmth you feel from far away
I wanna take off all these things away

How many scars will it take to remind us
How many scars will it take to remind us
That love is blindness
That love is blindness

I wanna be the winter breeze that carries you home
I wanna be the only heart you hold
I don't need to see the light to know what is true
I'm gonna take off all my clothes for you

The Other Side lyrics - Civil Twilight

I could hear the music from across the valley
Where the smoke hangs in the pine trees
And I could hear the people shouting and jiving
People not like me

Something in the water told me
I could walk across this valley
I could break down those walls
And show her my heart
Something in the water told me
There's a better place I can be
Right there, right there waiting on the other side
Waiting on the other side

She says I should be there
But something's telling me to stay away
Instinct or fear, I can't say
But there's only one pathway
From where I am and where you are
Only one light in the darkness, darkness

Something in the water told me
I could walk across this valley
I could break down those walls
And show her my heart
Something in the water told me
There's a better place I can be
Right there, right there waiting on the other side
Waiting on the other side, the other side

I never knew what I was doing
I was too young to see
I never knew what I was doing
But now I know that I could be
I could be your shining stone
If you let me

Something in the water told me
I could walk across this valley
I could break down those walls
And show her heart
Something in the water told me
There's a better place I can be
Right there, right there

Something in the water told me
I could walk across this valley
I could break down those walls
And show her heart
Something in the water told me
There's a better place I can be
Right there, right there waiting on the other side
Waiting on the other side
Waiting on the other side
Waiting on the other side

Didn't Know When To Stop lyrics - Civil Twilight

How could I say what it is I want
What it is I want from this
How could I explain the things I do
The things I do for a kiss

I didn't know when to stop
I didn't know when to give it up
I didn't know when to stop myself
Could you help me now?

There was a truth that I never saw
That I never saw, come to light
There was a path that I walked away from
That I walked away from and out of sight

I didn't know when to stop
I didn't know when to give it up
I didn't know when to stop myself
Could you help me now?

I didn't know when to stop
I didn't know when to give it up
I didn't know when to stop myself
Could you help me now?

I didn't know when to stop
I didn't know when to give it up
I didn't know when to stop

Only For A Time lyrics - Civil Twilight

Tell me what you were thinking
Tell me what you were saying
Tell me what you were doing wrong
I'll be your witness
I'll be the stone you throw through the window

The shadowy room you lie in
The dirty rings in the basin
The creases under your eyes
Don't let them beat you
Don't even try to understand

It will be only for a time
Only for a time it will be

Everyone knows, it comes and goes
Yet everyone tries to hold it down
This precious moment
The blissful cloud we find ourselves in

It will be only for a time
Only for a time it will be

It will be only for a time
Only for a time it will be

No, I never wanna let you go
No, I never wanna let you go
No, I never wanna see you cry

No, I never wanna let you go
No, I never wanna let you go
No, I never wanna see you cry

No, I never wanna let you go
No, I never wanna let you go
No, I never wanna see you cry

No, I never wanna see you cry

It will be only for a time
Only for a time it will be

It will be only for a time
Only for a time it will be

This will be only for a time
Only for a time it will be

No, I never wanna let you go
No, I never wanna let you go
No, I never wanna see you cry

No, I never wanna let you go
No, I never wanna let you go
No, I never wanna see you cry

No, I never wanna let you go
No, I never wanna let you go
No, I never wanna see you cry

Love Was All That Mattered lyrics - Civil Twilight

You are a fallen star
Fallen so far away
A cold ice settled over us
Never to melt away

Love was all that mattered to us then
Love was all that mattered to us then

With a bruised heart and bleeding hand
I crawled back home to you
One star above my head
Drawing this man out again

Love was all that mattered to us then
Love was all that mattered to us then

A secret fire was borrowed, never returned
Love was all that mattered 'til it burned

Love was all that mattered to us then
Love was all that mattered to us then

Believe lyrics - Civil Twilight

I'll spend the night in the corner dark
Far away from the fire spark
Far away from where I wish to be
Sliding shoes and the lonely beat

From here it's anybody's guess
She could be the mermaid reeling in my net
And even though I believe it's too late
Someone better shove me or I'm gonna go insane

Hey, what are you doing to me?
Give me something I can believe
Hey, what are you doing to me?
Give me something I can believe
Give me something I can believe
Give me something I can believe

When I'm dead and my ashes spread
Spreads them on the ground that separates our fate
The truth is I'm too afraid to move
The truth is way too terrifying

Hey, what are you doing to me?
Give me something I can believe
Hey, what are you doing to me?
Give me something I can believe
Give me something I can believe
Give me something I can believe

Every drop of sweat
Every block of ice
Every drink is a sea that separates us
20 hours in front of the screen
Still can't touch anything that I've seen
Still a ghost between two worlds

Hey, what are you doing to me?
Give me something I can believe
Hey, what are you doing to me?
Give me something I can believe
Hey, what are you doing to me?
Give me something I can believe
Hey, what are you doing to me?
Give me something I can believe
Give me something I can believe
Give me something I can believe

"Holy Weather" (2012)

River lyrics - Civil Twilight

On the warm banks
Of the river of life
Men and women gather
With all of their rights

You see those statues
They are men of frozen will
And we're not like them, baby
We will never be still

Take a little dive into the river, baby
I don't mind, I don't mind
Just take a little dive into the river, baby
I don't mind if we never get out
Never get out

If heaven seems far away
Just let your spirit sway
Just let your spirit sway
Just let your spirit

Take a little dive into the river, baby
I don't mind, I don't mind
Just take a little dive into the river, baby
I don't mind if we never get out

Into the river
We’ve got all this time.

It flows through walls of stone
It flows in between the bone
It has flowed since the divine exchange
It flows forever unchanged

Take a little dive into the river, baby
I don't mind, I don't mind
Just take a little dive into the river, baby
I don't mind if we never get out
Never get out
I wanna never get out, never get out
Never get out

Holy Weather lyrics - Civil Twilight

This is the final journey
To the edge of ourselves
This is the beginning of the end
Took her hand
And walked her through
Took her hand
And walked her into the blue
Into that blue...

So we walked on water
And crossed the fields
Of burning sand
But the further we went,
The the more we became
What we couldn't understand
I was drifting further away
She was lost like a breeze
In a hurricane
A hurricane...

[Chorus:]
You know I've got you
In my blood-stream
You know that no matter
How loud I scream,
I still hear your voice in my head

You are the fire burning solo
You are the wind
In between the snow
I can't escape you
I can't escape...

Go back, go back
Find yourself a train track
It's not too late to go home
Passion is this weight
On my shoulders
Passion is this weight
On my shoulders
Passion is this weight
On my shoulders
Passion is this weight
On my shoulders

So why did you follow me
Into this den
When all the bluest stars
Paint your name
In a sky of black
You must go back

[Chorus:]
I told you that I've got you
In my blood-stream
I told you that no matter
How loud I scream,
I still hear your voice in my head

You are the fire burning solo
You are the wind
In between the snow
I can't escape you
I can't escape you, oh

(Passion is this weight
On my shoulders)

Fire Escape lyrics - Civil Twilight

We are the desperate ones looking for the mark
We are the lonely ones left out here in the dark
We bought our tickets but we don't have a seat
And now we are just slaves to the beat
We are the tired ones tired of too much sleep
Tired of searching for the words we can't repeat
Don't mean to scare you but it's getting too warm
I think I'm gonna move to the door

You see, we are burning,
This is real
We're on fire but we can't feel a thing
We were promised more than we can take
Everybody out the fire escape

Oh oh oh oh

Gather around my friends
Let's try not to pretend
There is a war between the cold out there and the fire within
I know that we're alive, I know that we can dive
Right into the thick of it

You see, we are burning,
This is real
We are on fire but we can not feel a thing
We were promised more than we can take
Everybody out the fire escape

I don't wanna fill my body
With drugs I can't even name
I'm tired of feeling the same
I wanna feel something

You see, we are burning,
This is real
We're on fire don't you feel
We were made to be more than inches away
Everybody out the fire escape

You see, we are burning,
This is real
We are on fire but we can not feel a thing
We were promised more than we can take
Everybody out the fire escape

MoveStay lyrics - Civil Twilight

One by one,
The colors drip from the sun
And there he lies,
Looking through the window above
To get high, to get high

On and on,
The trees grow high,
The years roll by
And he counts everyone
To feel like a part of life,
To feel high

[Chorus:]
Move, move,
Before it's too late
Move, move,
Before they close the gate
Everything's got a reason,
Everyone's got a place
You gotta move
If you want to stay

[Bridge: (5x)]
If only I could work
My way out into light
'Start over new
In a forest of dark night

[Chorus]

You've got to move
If you want to stay
Stay, stay, stay, stay, stay
