1.Faster
You're so delicious
You're so soft, sweet on the tip of my tongue
You taste like sunlight and strawberry bubble gum
You bite my lip, you spike my blood
You make my heart beat faster
Only you own and rattle my bones
You turn me over and over,
Till I can't control myself
Make me a liar, yeah, one big disaster uh
You make my heart beat - faster
Uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh
It's the way you swell slow
Pushing right out of your seams
It's the way you smile, baby
When you've got me on my knees
Your all night noise, your sirens howl
You make my heart beat faster
Only you own and rattle my bones
You turn me over and over,
Till I can't control myself
Make me a liar, yeah, one big disaster uh
You make my heart beat - faster
Uh uh uh uh uh uh
Cause I jump, I crash, I crawl
I beg, I steal, I fall, oooo
Yeah you own me.
You make my heart beat faster, faster
Faster, faster
I can't get enough
This it's gone
This world is over to me
Only you own and rattle my bones
You turn me over and over
Till I can't control myself
Make me a liar, yeah, one big disaster uh
Cause you make my heart beat
Only you own and rattle my bones
You turn me over and over
Till I can't control myself
Make me a liar, yeah, one big disaster uh
You make my heart beat faster
You make my heart beat faster
2.Modern Love
She said this talkin'
Just kinda wears me out
And all these salesmen
Baby make me tired
They're no good
But tell you the truth she said
I've been getting' used to liars
They sing me love songs
With store-bought words
They make promises like politicians
So we stumble and we disconnect
Over and over again
This modern love is not enough
She said watch your back
I'm nobody's girlfriend
This modern love is not enough
Oh oh oh oh oh
They said one big exhale never did me no - good
I let em in, I
Oh man I let em win
I burned my house down
Just to hear em scream my name
I've carried hope
On heavy daydreams
She said
But I'm done with sleepin'
Take the phone calls
Take this circus
Take the drama
Cuz baby it's worthless
This modern love is not enough
She said watch your back
I'm nobody's girlfriend
This modern love is not enough
Oh oh oh oh oh
They said one big exhale never did me no - good
One big exhale never did me no good
And the bright light shines
Still we ache and we break and we try
The stage lights shine
And they blind our eyes
To it all
Oh oh
Still we ache and we break and we just can't
Get it right
This modern love is not enough
She said watch your back
I'm nobody's girlfriend
This modern love is not enough
Oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh
This modern love
Yeah it's a taco truck
Come on take the phone calls
And I'll take the silence
This modern love is not enough
Oh oh oh oh
Oh yeah
One big exhale
Never did me no good
One exhale
One big exhale yeah
One exhale
Never did me no good
Oh never did me no good
3.Love Comes Tumbling Down
you tried to keep me warm
I was falling through the sky
you whispered to me
baby hold on tight
Now I was starting wars
saying my good-byes
still you never took your hand from mine
all the stars above our heads
the faster they came
the faster they went
all the stars above our heads
spin you round through the roar of this crowd tonight, tonight
dance you round throught the bones of this town until daylight
comes
hope, hope will put the colors in the sky
hope, hope will set this world of wrong to right, to right
love comes tumbiling down
cities made of stone
sinking in the flood
all the people wait around to rust
all the stars above our heads
the faster they came
the faster they went
all the stars we lose ourselves
spin you round through the roar of this crowd tonight, tonight
dance you round throught the bones of this town until daylight
comes
hope, hope will put the colors in the sky
hope, hope will set this world of wrong to right, to right
love comes tumbiling down
when did we, when did we get so careful (oh love)
when did we, when did we lose ourselves
afraid, we fade, we fade out
when did we, when did we get so careful (love)
spin you round through the roar of this crowd tonight, tonight
(spin your round)
dance you round through the bones of this town until daylight
comes (dance around)
hope, hope will put the colors in the sky
hope, hope will set this world of wrong to right, to right (then
love comes)
love comes tumbiling down
(love, love) love comes tumbiling down
all the stars above my head
the faster they came
the faster they went
4.Room At The End Of The World
I was leaving with the drunks
Singing Sinatra loud
I let go of love
Once it finally had me figured out
I was buried like a treasure
But no one ever came to mark the spot
So I got good at pleasure
And started tying tighter knots
Sad can't catch me or call me baby now
When it's all I used to believe
If the sun don't light
And the night won't turn
We'll get a room at the end of the world
And we'll rewrite all the wrongs we've learned
Safe in our room at the end of the world
These streets are haunted
With ghosts who wait on luck to come
They sleep with hornets
And they wonder why they wake up stung
The sad can't catch me
Or call me baby now, oh now
When it's all I used to believe
If the sun don't light
And the night won't turn
We'll get a room at the end of the world
And we'll rewrite all the wrongs we've learned
Safe in our room at the end of the world
One heart is never enough alone,
One heart is never enough alone
Come on, come on
Come on and dance with me, love
Just come on and dance with me love
Cause I need it, I need it now
I can see it, I can see it, I believe it
If the sun don't light
And the night won't turn
We'll get a room at the end of the world
And we'll rewrite all the wrongs we've learned
Safe in our room
We'll be safe in our room at the end of the world
5.Kiss Quick
This year, all but disappeared,
Bought into fairy tales,
But sleeping beauty just
Kept score and tried to sleep more
She said 'I'm not quite, myself tonight,
But the way you touch me,
oh, makes me tongue tied,
That could be the wine too.'
Kiss quick, I've got a line out the door
Who all think they can save me.
One by one they lay the world at my feet,
One by one they drive me crazy.
She said 'I know love,
And it's all push and shove,
So stop talking
And put your back into it.'
Loaded, oh my hands shook to hold it
I turned her body on, I turned her body on myself.
Kiss quick, I've got a line out the door
Who all think they can save me.
One by one they lay the world at my feet,
One by one they drive me crazy.
Shut your mouth,
Pull me out, before this all goes grey.
One by one they lay the world at my feet.
One by one they go away.
Oh-oh-oh-oh Oh-oh-oh-oh
Come on, come on.
Kiss quick, I've got a line out the door
Who all think they can save me.
Oh, one by one they lay the world at my feet.
One by one they drive me crazy.
Shut your mouth,
Pull me out before this all goes grey.
One by one they lay the world at my feet.
One by one they go away.
They go away.
They go away.
Sell my blood for money,
Baby, baby.
And I love how it feels.
This year, all but disappears.
6.Mercy
I want a real love
To let me in
I want to zero out
And be born again
No more false starts and no dead ends
Cause I'm no shape
To do what's right
I see up that's down and black that's white
It makes me dizzy I come apart
All this love love love in the dark
Mercy mercy both hands
I need less drowning and more land
Mercy mercy, understand
Less drowning, more land, less drowning
Lay a fire in the crowd
Just to watch you move
Tie your hands and demand a salute
All these gardens full of snakes and fruit
Hear the click click click
And the camera flash
It's in the definite kick up in the fame ball blast
But they don't call and they don't last
And you're gone, outshine
Mercy mercy both hands
I need less drowning and more land
Mercy mercy, understand
Less drowning, more land, less drowning
Come on kill the light
Leave it all behind
I'm right by your, I'm right by your side
Lean on the tick of time
Put your hand in in mine
Watch you, watch you ignite
Mercy mercy both hands
I need less drowning and more land
Mercy mercy, understand
Less drowning, more land,
Mercy mercy, I'm in your hands
I look into your eyes and I see life end
Mercy mercy, understand
Less drowning, more land,
Less drowning, more land.
7.Kept
I watched the flames slow and strange
Let the walls fill my eyes
I heard your voice through the noise
I was cold and it was warm inside
And I should have kept my hands
I should have kept my arms inside
I believe you now
I should have kept my head
I should have kept my heart, my heart
Shooting stars, falling leaves
The more things change, the more I sleep
I took her heart and I licked her wounds
And morning came and it felt like truth
But I should have kept my hands
I should have kept my arms inside
Yeah I believe you now
I should have kept my head
I should have kept my heart, my heart
I'm on my knees
And I should have kept my hands
I should have kept my arms inside
Yeah I believe you now
I should have kept my head
I should have kept my heart, my heart
8.Run (Feat. Jennifer Nettles And Kristian Bush)
I wanna watch you undress
I wanna watch you glow
Let your hair down,
all around, and cover us both
You come in waves,
We crash and we roll,
You surround me, pull me,
Drown me and swallow me whole
You turn turn turn, turning me on,
Like a slow fire burn, I know that it's wrong
Still I run run run, run right into you
Yeah I run run run, run right into you
You pull me in close,
You buckle my knees,
I shake and I shiver just to feel you breathe
You trace my lines (I trace your lines)
Stir in my soul
Shoot sparks at the heart of the world
and I watch it explode
(I watch you, yeah, I watch you)
You turn turn turn, turning me on,
Like a slow fire burn, I know that it's wrong
Still I run run run, run right into you
Yeah I run run run, run right into you
I'm amazing
When you're beside me
I'm so much more
And I feel your fingers
Pound like thunder
And I am so much more
(I'm so much more)
You turn turn turn, turning me on,
Like a slow fire burn, I know that it's wrong
Still I run run run, run right into you
(Oh oh oh oh)
You turn turn turn, turning me on,
Like a slow fire burn, I know that it's wrong
Still I run run run, run right into you
(I run, I run)
Still I run run run, run right into you
Still I run run run, run right back to you
Turning me on
Like a slow fire burn
9.Queen Of (K)nots
You blew through me
Like a hurricane
Got me twisted, oh
You got me twisted
You promised blue sky
And brought the rain
And I went missing, oh
I went missing
While I was sleeping
You robbed me blind
Drunk on your power
Your sweet turned sour
You sent me sailing into the rocks
My queen of (k)nots
Your heart's a jungle of bar fights
Lonely little queen of (k)nots
You must be lost
You sounded desperate
You bought your friends
They hang like targets
Such easy targets
I never seen aim so steady
No no I've never seen a mind so bent
You pull the trigger
You're cold like winter
And the spell I was under
Of your see through skin
I was drunk on your power
And turned you louder
You sent me sailing into the rocks
My queen of (k)nots
Your heart's a jungle of bar fights
Lonely little queen of (k)nots
You must be lost
I won't be there when the luck runs out
Yeah I won't be there when the word gets round
Cause you're someone else's baby
Yeah you're someone else's crazy, now
While I was sleeping
You robbed me blind
Was drunk on your powers
Your sweet turned, sour
You sent me sailing into the rocks
My queen of (k)nots
Your heart's a jungle of bar fights
My queen of (k)nots
You must be lost
Your heart's a stumbling block
You're my queen of (k)nots, come on
You're heart's a jungle of bar fights
Lonely little queen of (k)nots
You must be lost
You must be lost, you must be lost
Queen of (k)nots
Cause I won't be there
I won't be there
10.Drop To Hold You
I've got a love that comes in colors.
I got a voice, comes in screaming.
My old clothes they don't fit me now-ow-ow.
When I was young, I took off running.
I had a head full of tangles.
I had my heart full of splinters oh-oh-oh.
And you came around - to save me.
Now I drop to hold you
To hold you, to hold you oh-oh-oh
I had a thief, who stole my money
Took my heart, took it so quick
And left a hole as big as Texas oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
And now I can hear the sweet swell of music
Feel the soft beat, beat push to the surface
Living life out loud, no one to blame it on-on-on
Yeah you came around - to save me
Now I drop to hold you
To hold you, to hold you oh-oh-oh
The satellite beams me closer,
Keeps me steady
The satellite beams me closer,
Oh and I won't let you down
Now I drop to hold you
To hold you, to hold you oh-oh-oh yeah love
I drop to hold you
To hold you
11.Bottom Of The Sea
Come on down to the bottom of the sea
Come on down here
There's room right next to me
I'm tired of getting even
Let's get odd odd, baby
And live life at the bottom of the sea
There's too many cars drinking too much gasoline
There's no good news on my TV screen
There's a hole up in the sky so come on, baby, dive
And live life at the bottom of the sea
I tried my best to be someone else, someone else
I tried my best to be someone else instead
I tried my best to be someone else, someone else
Now there's nothing left
of me
If the morning light ever calls you backwards
If the surface begs you on
If the morning light ever calls you backwards
Just don't be gone too long
Don't leave me here alone
Come on down to the bottom of the sea
Come on down here
Ya there's room right next to me
I'm tired of getting even
Let's get odd odd, baby
And live life at the bottom of the sea
I tried my best to be someone else, someone else
I tried my best to be someone else instead
I tried my best to be someone else, someone else
Now there's nothing left
I've got nothing left of me
