A Year Two Months Sixteen

The Paper And The Plane A Year Two Months Sixteen Lyrics
1.I Didn't Sign Up For A Marathon

Percentages of my chances
Never did mean that much to me
I'd rather work on my own flaws
That haven't changed at all lately

And it is all
It is all
But I am here when you call
And I hold you when I fall
It's not helping anymore
Hey!

It's alright yeah it's alright
I stopped myself before I spoke a word to you
About my views
With holes that I cant climb out from

And it is all
Over my friend
I tell it to you
Because my only fear is being
Distant from you
Like I used to
Worn but unused

Now I am tired yes I am tired
Of chasing other people's dreams
I just woke up and realized
I am not who I want to be

And it is all it is all
But I am here when you call
And I hold you when I fall
When I fall

I'd probably should walk away
And wash my hands of any guilt
But foolishly
I'll stick around
Until I've lost
All that I've built

And it is all
It is all
But I am here when you call
And I hold you when I fall
It's not helping anymore.

Keep on cutting

It's over my friend
Tell it to you
You've spent way too long
Cutting me down

Because my only fear is being
Distant from you
Like i used to
Worn but unused
Tell it to you
Because my only fear is being..


2.Sleep Now

this fear of my old life
just may overcome me
cause all that i am is never enough
so scared that you'd forget
the day we started
my only hope is right by your side

so you know, and don't go

i should give up my whole heart
instead of this half love
cause all that i am is never enough
what i would give up
what i'd surrender
to keep you here, safe in my arms

And i forgot that we would leave each other breathless
tonight will share such simple words
like 'i need to go home and sleep now'

i should give up my whole heart
instead of this half love
cause all that i am is never enough
what i would give up
what i'd surrender
to keep you here, safe in my arms

we've come so far so i can't recognise your smile

I have fallen far too many times
Just don't ever let her leave my side


3.Not Now...Not Ever

every word tell to you
oh you won't listen oh you won't listen
And i will keep on holding my arms up
but do you notice? but you don't notice

it takes all i have not to decide
just to leave you, leave you with this mess
it takes all i have to push it aside
but you don't care you keep on pushing
till it's time

I will not cross that line
I told you every time, believe me

I think much less on how to please you
than you may think
i'm sorry but i just dont care
at least anymore

cause i've always fought against the tide
when i believe i do not belong there
and it is all i have left when they're
gonna believe me, please please believe me

i need more than this to wake up to
Oh and i dont, i do not know i...
but it's all i have left when they're gone
and i'm sorry oh i'm so sorry but it's time

I will not cross that line
I told you every time, believe me

I think much less on how to please you
than you may think
i'm so filled with problems
and you, yes you are one
sorry but i don't care

but i would wait all night, all night
for you to hear
that i still care
but i need you to believe
I'm not your friend
but at least i am not your foe
i still need you to know, know

but it's only my heart i can't change
no
and it is keeping me awake
oh
i seem to forget my place
no
if i'm rambling please stop me, stop me


4.Like Solitaire With Two

when i couldnt say the words
i could only tell you that it's all my fault when you leave the
room

but i keep you at arms length just so i know you won't stray
like everyone else i have cared for

oh i tell you if you do
I'll be in a hole that i can't climb out from

tell me when do we leave town
cause i can't wait to get out
sometimes it's colder than it seems
in my town

i tried to find myself but it's harder than i thought in my town
am i still at odds with you in my town?

if you spoke your mind to me
i could tell you that it's all i ever heard

well i didn't tell you first
but at least i told you how weighed down i get when you're not
around

its time to leave

i tried to find myself but it's harder than i thought in my town
am i still at odds with you in my town?
and i hope its time to leave my town
