Drive down to the ocean to get some kind of inspiration All you see is blue Sit and wait for a spark to help set things into motion But all you feel is blue You can’t help but wonder how many have been here before you If all they’ve seen & all they’ve felt just happened to be blue ‘Cause all you see is blue & all you feel is blue ‘Cause all you see is blue & all you feel is blue All you see is blue & all you feel is blue ‘Cause all you see is blue & all you feel is blue All you see is blue & all you feel is blue ‘Cause all you see is blue & all you feel is blue All you see is blue & all you feel is blue ‘Cause all you see is blue & all you feel is blue

Say what you want Tell me how to feel It sucks you won’t say something real Switch your phone off Its such a foreign love Im running under water & I’ve had enough Ive had enough Watching the leaves change green to brown They become brittle as they fall to the ground August pasts the new season is here But it means nothing to me if you’re not here It means nothing to me if you’re not here Switch your phone off Its not that foreign love Were running under water & I’ve had enough Watching the leaves change green to brown They’ll be become brittle as they fall to the ground August pasts the new season is here But it means nothing to me if you’re not here It means nothing to me if you’re not here

And it feels like I’m stuck in a game Running circles around Cambridge street Misdirection no map no compass A loss is a loss no way to solve it I don’t know where this goes But I hope we see it through I don’t know where this goes But I hope it’s me and you Where did it go? I couldn’t find you The life you had you left behind you Lost & all alone I know you care, hear me out but I can’t hear you yet Misdirection no map no compass A loss is a loss, no way to solve it I don’t know where this goes But I hope we see this through I don’t know where this goes But I hope it’s me and you.

Hey x6 Theres a hole in the roof (Hey) Whose up there now? (Hey) Is it you or me & when will we ever really come down There’s a hole in the roof (Hey) Where does it go? (Hey) Over here or there & how will we ever know? It’s a man hole, yeah? (Yeah) What purpose does it serve? Don’t hide up there No don’t you even get the nerve Theres a hole in the roof It goes nowhere Kinda like this song Hey hey hey yeah yeah Hey x3

Pick me out from the cellar in your mind Dust off the cobwebs everything is fine You always said I was like a fine wine A bit rusty but only getting better with time And I’m sorry that I missed your call But I didn’t mean to call at all Wrap me up in a blanket Drop me in the ocean and wait to die Tip toe around it At least I got to say goodbye And I’m sorry that I missed your call But I didn’t mean to call at all Remember what you said? Just a string of infinite no’s What will it take to stop this? Slipping past right under my nose. And I’m sorry that I missed your call But I didn’t mean to call at all I said I’m sorry that I missed your call But I didn’t mean to call at all

Come down, I’ve had enough You’re spinning things around & its getting kinda rough I thought I saw you out last night I thought I saw us figure it out Calm down, its overdue The night crept through & took the strange out of you I thought I saw you out last night I thought I saw us figure it out Take it all back don’t say what you mean You tell me its over now or is it some kind of dream x2 Take it all back don’t say what you mean You tell me its over now or is it some kind of dream x4

The waves crash over the flowers as we push him out to sea We are here to say our last goodbyes I wish I told you one more time Please, Please just stay x2 Im not going anymore Im not going anymore Im not coping anymore Im not coping anymore There are tears still in our eyes The fear & disbelief We are here to say we love you & I wish I said just one more thing Please, Please just stay x2 Im not going anymore Im not going anymore Im not coping anymore Im not coping anymore x2
