The Mile After Armada Lyrics
1.Hewlett

Quick, get in,
Then wait for the door.
For a few seconds we'll do
What we've been waiting.
What I've been waiting
All night for.
As each floor passes,
I wish more and more,
That you lived at the top floor.
Two million feet tall
And you lived at the top floor.
Two million feet tall
And you lived at the top floor.
Oh, now I realize more and more
That I would love to be the one,
Oh, I would love to be the one
Who makes you happy...
Or feel anything at all.
That I would love to be the one,
Oh, I would love to be the one
Who makes you happy...
Or feel anything at all.

Quick, get in,
Then wait for the door.
For a few seconds we'll do
What we've been waiting.
What I've been waiting
All night for.
As each floor passes,
I wish more and more,
That you lived at the top floor.
Two million feet tall
And you lived at the top floor.
Two million feet tall
And you lived at the top floor.
Oh, now I realize more and more
That I would love to be the one,
Oh, I would love to be the one
Who makes you happy...
Or feel anything at all.
That I would love to be the one,
Oh, I would love to be the one
Who makes you happy...
Or feel anything at all.

We've never even said a single thing out loud,
But I won't hold that against us.
Even if you were here,
We'd still let our eyes do the talking.
I find myself always forgetting this thing
that should be involuntary.
You gotta breathe,
You gotta breathe,
You gotta breathe,
Oh, it's so cliche how you make my thoughts stop.
Oh, I would love to be the one,
Oh, I would love to be the one
Who makes you happy...
Or feel anything at all.
Oh, I would love to be the one,
Oh, I would love to be the one
Who makes you happy...
Quick, get in,
Then wait for the door.


2.Last Night At Face Value

turn off the lights
turn off the lights
so that i can't see
you walking away;
turn off the lights
turn off the lights
so i can feel you hesitating;
the last time that
i saw you was 4AM...
and i've been thinking
what to say to you
since then;
it's because of me,
flat out 'cause of me;
i never had an excuse;
oh no, it's gone...
and i wanted to feel
that way forever;
i had to let it go to see;
it's back, right now...
and it feels exactly
how i remember;
i wont be letting go this time
when it's all said and done...
turn off the lights
turn off the lights
so that i can't see
you walking away;
turn off the lights
turn off the lights
so you can feel me waiting;
the last time that
i saw you was 4AM...
and i've been thinking
what to say to you
since then;
it's because of me,
flat out 'cause of me;
i never had an excuse;
oh no, it's gone...
and i wanted to feel
that way forever;
i had to let it go to see;
it's back, right now...
and it feels exactly
how i remember;
i wont be letting go this time
when it's all said and done...
can you feel me too
the way i feel you
whenever you're not there?
there's a part of me
that makes me wanna go...
it makes me wanna go,
but no matter what you tell me...
i'll be gone untill i'm ready;
did you know that
i was there for you?
oh no, it's gone...
and i wanted to feel
that way forever;
i had to let it go to see;
it's back, right now...
and it feels exactly
how i remember;
i wont be letting go this time
when it's all said and done...


3.Let It Down

You know I've been drinking
My senses are leaving
Enhance my dreaming
And my feelings for you
But we're young to this city
So we gotta do everything
Not to let it down
Not to let it down
It's up to me and you
To do all the things our
Parents taught us
So well not to
We're young and alone
So let's do everything
Ignore the telephone
It's not for you
Constantly
It's so hard to breathe
I can hardly see
Sense of smell's left me
And what's the point to hear
Unless it's her voice saying
We can disappear
What in the hell did she do to me?
I'll always want to sleep
If she's the one I'll see

You know I've been drinking
My senses are leaving
Enhance my dreaming
And my feelings for you
But we're young to this city
So we gotta do everything
Not to let it down
Not to let it down
It's up to me and you
To do all the things our
Parents taught us
So well not to
We're young and alone
So let's do everything
Ignore the telephone
It's not for you
Constantly
It's so hard to breathe
I can hardly see
Sense of smell's left me
And what's the point to hear
Unless it's her voice saying
We can disappear
We can disappear
What in the hell did she do to me?
What in the hell did she do to me?
What in the hell did she do to me?
What in the hell did she do to me?
Everything not too well.


4.The Only One

Forgetting's hard when you're the only one
When I look in her eyes
And I still feel the same, I know it's hopeless
And when I look to the skies
And the stars spell her name, I know it's hopeless
Amnesia, really need ya
I wanna lose my mind
In a place that I won't find
Forgetting's hard when you're the only one
Forgetting's hard when you're the only one
That makes things easy, you make things easy
You're the only one that eases me
You're the only one that eases me
I remember the times
When my shoulder held your head
and I would wonder
How did they find such a perfect fit?
I remember
I never wanted to take you home
Amnesia, really need ya
I wanna lose my mind
In a place that I won't find
Forgetting's hard when you're the only one
Forgetting's hard when you're the only one
That makes things easy, you make things easy
You're the only one that eases me
You're the only one that eases me
So call me now, you know that you want to
I need to hear your voice to talk me back into existence
So call me now, you know that you want to
I need to hear your voice to talk me back into existence
So call me now, you know that you want to
I need to hear your voice to talk me back into existence
So call me now, you know that you want to
I need to hear your voice to talk me back into existence
Forgetting's hard when you're the only one
Forgetting's hard when you're the only one
Forgetting's hard when you're the only one
Forgetting's hard when you're the only one
Forgetting's hard when you're the only one


5.I Know Something You Don't

I know something you don't
but I won't try to hide it
I'll let it all show
So you know...
I know something you don't
I'll let it hang on every word I say
It's feeling like an honest day

I'm a lush, you know that
Oh, I really hope you do
And I know you'll say that
'That isn't an excuse.'
I'm a lush, you know that
Oh, it only takes me a few
I have something to say that...
Will only take a minute or two
I let her drive so that we'd be safe
Even though it'd probably be safer if I drove anyway
And then I got the nerves to finally say,
'You can't hate the sour,
until you've had the sweet, baby...
And that's me.'
I know something you don't
But I won't try to hide it
I'm gonna let it all show, so you know...
I know something you don't
I'll let it hang on every word I say
'Cause it's feeling like an honest day
I'm a lush, you know that
Oh, I really hope you do
And I know you'll say that,
'That isn't an excuse.'
I'm a lush, you know that
Oh, it only takes me a few
I have something to say that...
Will only take a minute or two
I let her drive so that we'd be safe
even though it'd probably be safer if I drove anyway
And then I got the nerves to finally say,
'You can't hate the sour,
until you've had the sweet, baby...
And that's me.'
I know something you don't,
But I won't try to hide it.
I'm gonna let it all show, so you know...
I know something you don't.
I'll let it hang on every word I say,
'Cause it's feeling like an honest day.
I know something you don't,
But I won't try to hide it,
I'm gonna let it all show.
So you know...
I know something you don't.
I'll let it hang on every word I say,
'Cause it's feeling like an honest day.


6.Piano Song

honest to god
I don't even remember...
I don't think that i've
ever felt this way;
honest, today,
I don't even know my name;
I had to fall on the floor
for your hands to reach for me;
you tell me how you'd love
for me to stay;
you say it a lot, but
she used to say the same;
I believed her
and i'm starting to think
that i'll believe you too,
but first I have to know...
that you'll leave me whole;
just leave me whole
and i'll be alright;
never let me go
and let me know if I ever might;
and I need you to know
to just wait for me to trust
and hold on because
no matter what you say
you can't stop the world
that's in my head;

honest to god
I don't even remember...
I don't think that i've
ever felt this way;
honest, today,
I don't even know my name;
I had to fall on the floor
for your hands to reach for me;
you tell me how you'd love

and I need you to know
to just wait for me to trust
and hold on because
no matter what you say
you can't stop the world
that's in my head;

i've lied when i've said
'I love you' before...
with you, I don't have
to lie anymore...

I believed her
and i'm starting to think
that i'll believe you too,
but first I have to know...

that you'll leave me whole;
just leave me whole

7.Pass It Along

Pass it along
oh, pass it along
this place that we've come
to know will soon be gone
and whats a better way
to say 'so long' than
to think of how life was before?
i never had single cigarette
i never had a single regret
now i have and i do
everything will soon change
but tonight will be the same
and every single day
i'd regret it all
but every night i'd say
i don't care about tomorrow
cause tonight is all i see
the night never feels sorrow
for the time it wastes with me
waste it with me

pass it along
oh, pass it along
i've got something to say
that might not ease your nerves
not that i ever did that anyway
so go and smoke another cigarette
i never had a single regret
but now i have and it's you
everything will soon change
but tonight will be the same
and every single day
i'd regret it all
but every night i'd say
i don't care about tomorrow
cause tonight is all i see
the night never feels sorrow
for the time it wastes with me
waste it with me
it takes a lot to let it go
it takes a lot to let it go


8.So Damn Easy (Kelly,Dear)

feels right;
don't even think about it
(don't even think of me)
a whole night full of tricks
(and i mean that sexually)
i'd try so hard to be clever
that it was hard for me to be
blunt when i wrote about us;
(now it's coming easily)
and all i ever wanted,
the only person that
i needed was you;
nevermind, that was a lie
that was influenced by
the things you did
in the bedroom;
you've fallen faster
than anyone i've known
and kelly, dear, i've known a lot;
if you weren't so damn easy
then you wouldn't be alone
if you weren't so damn easy
then you wouldn't be alone

it feels right to be mean
(and just leave that up to me)
i'd try so hard to be clever
(that it was hard for me to say)
your insecurity and a few drinks
is enough to get you laid,
all night, don't sleep a wink;
(he won't even know your name)
and all i ever wanted
was to get the awful
things that you'd do;
funny thing is that i think
i only wanted to be
a better person cause of you;
you've fallen faster
than anyone i've known
and kelly, dear, i've known a lot;
if you weren't so damn easy
then you wouldn't be alone
if you weren't so damn easy
then you wouldn't be alone

i thought that it would all just disappear,
but recently it's been so very clear
whether he's just in time or the last in line,
as long as you're drinking;
you'll have another and get under the covers;
(he won't even know your name)

you've fallen faster
than anyone i've known
and kelly, dear, i've known a lot;
if you weren't so damn easy
then you wouldn't be alone
if you weren't so damn easy
if you weren't so damn easy
then you wouldn't be alone


9.I Won't Be Too Far Behind

Tonight will leave me waiting for more
more of the only people
i'll ever care to know
hold your breathe, don't close your eyes,
we'll relive these times
sooner than later, i know

so when you walk on by
just know that i won't be too far behind
just know that i won't be too far behind

tonight will leave us waiting for more
more of the only place
that we've ever called home
raise our drinks up to the past
we swore tonight won't be our last
sooner than later, we'll know

so when you walk on by
just know that i won't be too far behind
just know that i won't be too far behind


10.Worst Offender

I found some peace of mind
in things that drive me crazy
you're the first, the worst offender
plus you're enough to fill
this page and bleed onto the next
full of things that I need
off my chest
speak to me now
tell me what you need
you want her to leave
cause your love life's lacking
I got her picture on my wall
she knows all the words I sing
you don't even know
what it feels like to need
one person this much
cause you're always running from them
I hate this so much
what should I do
I'll forget you
I found some peace of mind
in things that drive me crazy
you don't care if you offend her
plus you're enough to kill
this page and bleed onto the next
full of things that I need
off my chest
speak to me now
tell me what you need
you want her to leave
cause your love life's lacking
I got her picture on my wall
she knows all the words I sing
you don't even know
what it feels like to need
one person this much
cause you're always running from them
I hate this so much
what should I do
I'll forget you

speak to me now
tell me what you need
you want her to leave

cause you're always running from them
I hate this so much
what should I do
I'll forget you
I found some peace of mind
in things that drive me crazy
you don't care if you offend her


11.The Way It Should Be

we pulled up; our coats on...
cause once we get out, it'll be
the only way we have of staying warm;
my thoughts were left at the back door;
you slipped on them, hit the wood floor
and foolishly, I helped you up;
and carried you to the stairs, but they
broke from the weight of our conversation;
we fell through the ground and into the basement;
the laundry broke our fall; strategically placed
because I planned on this the night before.
so you wait a few days
before you take it off
cause it all feels so strange
without our pictures on your wall
because I belong to you
and you belong to me
and thats the way it should be
we took off our coats
cause we finally realized
that it's not the weather
that was making us feel cold.
my thoughts still left at the back door
and you still bothering me for
not looking you straight in the eyes,
but I'm not this time;
so I looked right through
you to the passing trees
and focused on just one;
you asked 'why is everything
so different after dark?'
I told you this once,
but you took it with a grain of salt.
so you wait a few days
before you take it off
cause it all feels so strange
without our pictures on your wall
because I belong to you
and you belong to me
and thats the way it should be
so you wait a few days
before you take it off
cause it all feels so strange
without our pictures on your wall
because I belong to you
and you belong to me
and thats the way it should be


12.Money Is Not A Thing

This won't be easy,
but I have to try.
I'll have to leave in dead winter
and come back in July.
I'll have to sing what I feel
almost every night,
but if this does anything,
and it will, you'll see,
I'm gonna do everything
to put you next to me.

This is keeping me up so I decided
to just give in, call it a night.
I've run out of different ways to tell you
what I've tried a million other times.
I doubt that I could leave you
and I still doubt you'd even care,
but how could I lead my life
and always say truth,
but never dare?

This won't be easy,

but how could I lead my life
and always say truth,
but never dare?

I can feel the undertow.
Will it drown me? I don't know.
Don't you see it's you I need
or will you leave me lost at sea?
You'll miss the salt and offshore breeze.
Oh. And, I forgot to mention, me.
I don't think that you should go.
I can't stand to be alone.
