This Is What I Sound Like lyrics - athlete

Do you know what your fighting for
Well let's fight, let's fight.
Do you know what we're asking for
Cause i don't sometimes

I just wanna kick off at something
Go to town and then make a scene
We're not sure what were fighting for
But we'll fight

And just wanna give you something that i haven't got
I'm a walking advertisement of both light and dark
I'm not making any sense
I'm not making any sense
I mess up but don't forget
That this is what I sound like
This is what I sound like
Just to remind myself
That this is what I sound like

I was lost in a hotel bar I was lost, I was lost
Is someone out there just laughing at us
Cause it seems that way

Stop at nothing to get what we want
Too young to realize
We're all the same
I was lost in a hotel bar
I was lost

And just wanna give you something that i haven't got
I'm a walking advertisement of both light and dark
I'm not making any sense
I'm not making any sense
I mess up but don't forget
That this is what I sound like
This is what I sound like
Just to remind myself
That this is what I sound like

Best Not To Think About It lyrics - athlete

He sees the flames in her tears
Sketching on her skin and he knows
That it's come to an end
And it's no point pretending it's not

And it's a long way down, a long way down from here
And it's a long way down, a long way down from here

So she smashes the glass
And there's blood on her hands and her skirt
There's the wind and a sun,
A fresh air in her lungs once again

And it's a long way down, a long way down from here
And it's a long way down, a long way down from here

So he closes his eyes
And thinks 'Maybe I'll be surprised if I do
I just might fall into another realm
And make another home there with you'

And it's a long way down, a long way down from here
And it's a long way down, a long way down from here

It's best not to think about it
Just put your arms around me

It's best not to think about it
Just put your arms around me

It's best not to think about it
Just put your arms around me, oh

"Tourist" (2005)




Chances lyrics - athlete

Take all your chances while you can
You never know when they'll pass you by
Like a sum the mathematician cannot solve
Like me trying my hardest to explain

It's all about your cries and kisses
Those first steps that I can't calculate
I need some more of you to take me over

Take me over

If I had the chance to start again
Then you would be the one I'd come and find
Like the poster of Berlin on my wall
Maybe there's a chance our walls might fall

It's all about your cries and kisses
Those first steps that I can't calculate
I need some more of you to take me over

It's all about your cries and kisses
Those first steps that I can't calculate
I need some more of you to take me over

I know I because I cant calculate

How to respect you
How to start again
How to start again
How to start again

It's all about you

Half Light lyrics - athlete

The sun got stuck, as it's making it's way back down,
We find ourselves, in a familiar part of town

And all that I've seen means nothing to me without you

So when I see you next we'll make the most of it,
Tell the sun to start moving again,
The taste of your kiss I still got on my lips,
And ill take you there with me

Head crashed down, air conditioned myself to sleep,
The great night out, that will continue to the end of the week

And all that I've seen means nothing to me without you

So when I see you next we'll make the most of it,
Tell the sun to start moving again,
The taste of your kiss I still got on my lips,
And ill take you there with me

It's you and me connected to a satellite
It's you and me love through a machine
It's you and me connected to a satellite
It's you and me love through a machine

So when I see you next we'll make the most of it,
Tell the sun to start moving again,
The taste of your kiss I still got on my lips,
And ill take you there with me

Tourist lyrics - athlete

This European air
It always warms my face
I wish I could pass on
I will bring you stories
And bleary-eyed photos
Like a regular tourist
We don't go breaking down
I feel like nothing ever will
We don't go breaking down
I feel like nothing
Suitcases down our street
Are rolling once again
I roll away with them
Five days inside Zoo York
To lose myself with friends
I'm nowhere without you
We don't go breaking down
I feel like nothing ever will
We don't go breaking down
I feel like nothing ever will
We will never go breaking down
I feel like nothing
Just wanna be with you
My baby
Just wanna be with you
My baby
Just wanna be with you
My baby
Just wanna be with you
My baby
I'm counting up the cost of time
And when I waste some time away
We cannot save ourselves alone
Or live life on a mobile phone
I'm counting up the cost of time (just wanna be with you, my baby)
And when I waste some time away (just wanna be with you, my baby)
We cannot save ourselves alone (just wanna be with you, my baby)
Or live life on a mobile phone (just wanna be with you, my baby)
Just wanna be with you
My baby
Just wanna be with you
My baby
Just wanna be with you

Trading Air lyrics - athlete

Covered ground just to reach your house
I know we need to talk
but I can't catch my thoughts
Insides gripped scared of what you'll think
Words I cant repeat
could change all we've got

Set it off
someone better hit the alarm
Set it off
someone better help me disarm myself
I dont want no one else
All I want is you
All I want is you

Trading air once more from the start
I can open up a thousand paper cuts
People hear what they want to hear
but they wont change a thing
no they wont change a thing

Set it off
someone better hit the alarm
Set it off
someone better help me disarm myself
I dont want no one else
All I want is you
All I want is you

Disarm myself
I dont want no one else
All I want is you
All I want is you

Disarm myself
I dont want no one else
All I want is you
All I want is you

Wires lyrics - athlete

You got wires, going in
You got wires, coming out of your skin
You got tears, making tracks
I got tears, that are scared of the facts

Running, down corridors through, automatic doors
Got to get to you, got to see this through
I see hope is here, in a plastic box
I've seen christmas lights, reflect in your eyes

You got wires, going in
You got wires, coming out of your skin
There's dry blood, on your wrist
Your dry blood on my fingertip

Running, down corridoors through, automatic doors
Got to get to you, got to see this through
First night of your life, curled up on your own
Looking at you now, you would never know

I see it in your eyes, I see it in your eyes
You'll be alright
I see it in your eyes, I see it in your eyes
You'll be alright

Alright

Running, down corridors through, automatic doors
Got to get to you, got to see this through
I see hope is here, in a plastic box
I've seen christmas lights, reflect in your eyes
down corridors, through automatic doors
Got to get to you, got to see this through
First night of your life, curled up on your own
Looking at you now, you would never know.

If I Found Out lyrics - athlete

Out of energy
I dont know what to do with myself
Made it eventually
And now I resting on the very last breath

And all I needed was this one to get me back on my way
It wasn't long before I realised there was no time to waste
There was soul all around me
Everybody let go
It wasnt long before we realised
There was no time to waste

Like Im eleven again
I was the highest kid in the world
I reached a point with no end
Just looking out so I can take it all in

And all I needed was this one to get me back on my way
It wasn't long before I realised there was no time to waste
There was soul all around me
Everybody let go
It wasnt long before we realised
There was no time to waste

And all I needed was this one to get me back on my way
It wasn't long before I realised there was no time to waste

[Choir]
Ooohhhh soul
Ooohhhh soul

I thank you, for soul
No point unless you got soul
This world has got to have soul
Looking round for your soul

Digging down digging down digging down to your soul
That I found out that you got soul
You'll be holding out all your soul

Lifted up all your soul
Cos I thank you for soul

Yesterday Threw Everything At Me lyrics - athlete

Elevated to your side, Now i'm nervous
It's time to tell you honestly, so we can alter history

You are, first on my list,
When everything around is gone i know
You are, first on my list
When everything is shown up for what it is

Plastic flowers that fight for colour
Shadows floating on the ground, that always follow
Like international acclam, it comes and goes never the same

You are, first on my list,
When everything around is gone i know
You are, first on my list
When everything is shown up for what it is

And i will run with you
And sunlight will break into my eyes
And it seems you plugged in the world in
'cause sunlight is streaming from your eyes

You are, first on my list,
When everything around is gone i know
You are, first on my list
When everything is shown up for what it is

Let's take our time, it won't change over night
we got a chance we didn't have before
Let's take our time, it won't change over night
we got a chance we didn't have before

You are, first on my list,
When everything around is gone i know
You are, first on my list
When everything is shown up for what it is
