ache

dont know how to say it

guess it means i need you

feeling kinda crazy

staring at the list

don't know how to handle

i can't keep a thought straight

feeling kinda nauseas 

do you get the jist?

[chorus]
a dark ache
rushing over me, over me
a dark ache
overpowers, devours me
a dark ache
fills my deepest place
til I see your face
til i see your face

[v2]
trying not to panic
clinging on the reason
dont know where you've gone now
sure that you'll be alright

i wrote this little song
i hope that it can save me
I'll take another breath
and release it to the night

[chorus]

Jacob

Jacob danced through the hallway
hotel sheet tied around
filled the silence with giggles
sprinkled love on the ground

Everybody who knows him
sees him leaking each day
once a boy with a big plan
he threw his notions away

[Chorus]
Jacob Jacob
Clutching tightly to the sea
Jacob Jacob
Mummy loves you differently
Jacob Jacob
Always been a stray
Jacob Jacob
Searching every day

He dropped his sheet in the doorway
then crawled across the dark room
he tried his best not to giggle
or spill the flowers in bloom

He's bathing there in the moonlight
while bashful stars hide their eyes
the tiny world spinning wildly
through a meridian sky

[CHORUS]

wild flowers

dreaming that dream
dreaming of you
wake in the dark
it wasn't true
reach for your hand
find an old sock
cuddle myself
sigh as i rock

(chorus)
wild flowers
fields of wild flowers
blue and white
orange and red
I'll dream of them
til we're both dead
wild flowers

i'd seen them before
brilliant and bright
but who could have known
I'd miss them tonight
I'll lie here alone
my face on your shirt
cuddle myself
and smile as i hurt

(chorus)

comfortable

the soft seductive glow
bussing your sweet face
i see you over there
in your old familiar place
sometimes you give me glances
in special circumstances

but usually i just feel you
and your cosmic energy

i'm floating in my world
and you're somewhere there in yours
somehow our drifting orbits
simultaneously occur
we're speaking without sound
in the silence all around

I'm happy I can feel you
and your cosmic energy

trust me

(v1)you're just
the kind
of girl i like:
pretty
and stupid
and rich

I'm the kind
of boy
you can't resist:
tall
and certain
and a little bit mean

(chorus)
trust me, trust me
I'm not gonna hurt you
trust me, trust me
baby you can change me
trust me, trust me
we will be so different
from the last girl I left
crying alone

(v2)
you say
that we
can get this right
together
and happy
sounds great

if you
don't want
to fight tonight
shut up
give in
come on

(chorus)

(bridge)
if we can't work this out (it's your fault)
you knew me from the start (who I am)
you said you didn't care (so stupid)
I don't need you anyway (you bitch)

(chorus) x2

a bone

come on universe
throw me a bone
I'm tired of scrounging around in the trash
i've begged and pleaded
I've even prayed
I've lit the candles and chanted the chants

I've done it all
but it doesn't seem to help
come on universe
come on

what should i say
what should i do
what magic tricks will see me through
I've conjured
I've pondered
I've threatened the spirits

I've done it all
but it nothing helps
come on universe
come on

If I were there

If I were there
If I were there

I'd hold you close
and pet your hair

I'd make a dirty joke
just to hear you laugh again
just to make you laugh again

If I were there

If I were there
If I were there

I'd hold you close
to show I care

I'd make a stupid face
just to see you smile again
just to make you smile again

If I were there

But I'm not there
No, I'm not there

you keep reminding me
reminding me
that I'm no longer there

No, I'm not there
I can't be there

I'm far away
so far away
I can't show you how I care

in another time
on another day
I was there
to make you smile
to be your smile

but now
I'm not there
