COASTLINE LYRICS

• COASTLINE
  Oh my, my troubled mind
  Never rested, never still
  I’ve found that not you nor I
  Would ever compromise our lives
  
  Even though I sound selfish
  I’m all right, better off your mind
  Even if the best years of my life have been lived I don’t mind
  
  I’ve been stalling on the coastline, staying out of sight
  Been stoned and overthinking, misreading all your signs
  I’m done watching on the action, eyeing from the side
  So tired and out of patience, been blunt and out of line
  
  Oh I keep moving but I know
  I ain’t fooling anyone
  I’m an old soul, my love, a victim of
  Slowly giving up the ghost
  
  Hanging ‘round out of habit
  Should have walked or taken off by now
  You keep on pushing ‘til I break down
  Let me break up like a man
  
  I’ve been stalling on the coastline, staying out of sight
  Been stoned and overthinking, misreading all your signs
  I’m done watching on the action, eyeing from the side
  So tired and out of patience, been blunt and out of line
• SLEEPING ON MY OWN
  You ain’t the first one to care for what’s hiding inside
  Ain’t the first to fall
  To notice you can’t have it all
  
  I ain’t a cold hearted men, won’t give you false hopes
  But I ain’t made of stone
  Got limits, I’ll get weak if you get too close
  
  Somehow this is what I’m used to, easy as it goes
  Smoking on my downtime, sleeping on my own
  
  You got me faded, stuck in a daze
  Trying to keep up with your pace but I’m growing old
  Guess I’m getting tired
  
  And I’ve been meaning to tell you, what’s been on my mind
  I’m just scared you’ll leave, been left alone too many times
  
  Somehow this is what I’m used to, easy as it goes
  Smoking on my downtime, sleeping on my own
• TROUBLE CHILD
  Night has taken over
  Fog in the streets
  Missus driving faster
  We’re closer to the beat
  The headrest slippin’ off
  The head I’m leaning on
  
  We used to call each other ‘lover’
  We used to try to make things work
  We used to call each other ‘lover’
  We used to try
  
  Best we start this over
  We’re hanging by a thread
  Been longing for an answer
  Why I ought to be your man
  
  Lost my heart to a woman, only too young
  Trouble child, beauty queen, short attention span
  Lost my cause, caught slippin’, lost all serotonin
  But love’s standing in the way
  
  We used to call each other ‘lover’
  We used to try to make things work
  We used to call each other ‘lover’
  We used to try
• RAISED BY WOLVES
  Raised by wolves, independent
  Born to kill, won’t feel your pain
  Civilized but a little restless
  Don’t test my skills, don’t doubt my bones
  
  Raised by wolves, independent
  Born to kill, won’t feel your pain
  Civilized but a little restless
  Don’t test my skills, don’t pick my brain
  
  But I need your love
  
  Loved and hated, feared by most
  Born to fight, would take you down
  Underrated, trained in the wild
  I’m back for answers, back for the crown
  
  But I need your love
• GOT ME ALL TIRED
  Hold on my darling
  Wake up, wake up early morning
  The smell in the air tells a different story
  Than the ones I’ve read or the ones I’ve told before
  Add a little more soul and some swing to it
  Is what I mean, it’s what I think I need
  
  I stepped on a fire, mistreated my soul
  Tripped on your wire, and then you got me
  Got me all tired to better keep me calm
  To better keep me
  
  But hold up ‘til we get it all in line
  Might have raised my voice
  But I’ll never let you down
  And pay close attention now
  Don’t make me turn my back and leave you down and out
  Yeah hope for the best that I
  Don’t turn my back and leave you down and out
  
  I stepped on a fire, mistreated my soul
  Tripped on your wire, and then you got me
  Got me all tired to better keep me calm
  To better keep
  
  All I ask from you
  Is to trust me with your heart in my hands
  And if you ask me how
  Well to figure it out, that’s the beauty of love
• AS LONG
  As long as you stand beside me
  I’ll keep you warm
  Picture your arms around me
  
  I see your eyes slowly giving in
  Feel my fingers, sliding up your chin
  I’m already high from making my way in
  Now I feel my body drowning in
  
  Everytime I try
  And I hate that I can’t see your colours
  Everytime I try
  But you keep my head under the water
  
  Maybe I misunderstood
  Maybe you just had it all
  Feel the walls closing in
  I’m learning how to take the fall for you
  
  Everytime I try
  But you keep my head under the water
• DAY AT THE MUSEUM
  So… bring me back to your home?
  ☺
• CALL OF THE WILD
  I’m keeping track, counting backwards
  Of every other moment, every single word
  I keep looking back, looking back on
  How we lost our reason, we killed our soul
  
  Call of the wild, hitching up the coast
  Fucked by the ocean, a better kind of high
  I didn’t mean to hurt you, I tried to work it out
  Man did I love you, but you dragged me down
  
  Out by the backdoor, won’t look back this time
  I’m out in the open now, to learn how to fight
  One less commitment, one less advice
  Better move on forward, lose a little pride
  
  I’m keeping track, counting backwards
  Of every other moment, every single word
  I keep looking back, looking back on
  How we lost our reason, we killed our soul
  
  And I’ve barely seen or heard anybody
  All that distance just kicked in, I need you up against my body
  What I’m longing for, I’m still trying to let go
  What I’d loose to keep you, you don’t have to know
  
  I’m keeping track, counting backwards
  Of every other moment, every single word
  I keep looking back, looking back on
  How we lost our reason, we killed our soul
• PUSHERMAN
  Tried so hard to believe what you said to me
  Woke up from a stranger’s dream
  Thought you’d be beside me sleeping
  
  But I ought to leave you alone
  Find my way away from home
  Now that our thrill is gone
  Now that you’ve watched me come undone
  
  Oh I’ll call the pusherman
  Call my one and only friend
  Pusherman
  Call my one and only friend
  
  Woke up in the morning light
  Days like these it’s all alright
  Avoiding every warning sign
  Enjoy until you come back down
  
  But I ought to leave it alone
  Find my way and turn back home
  Now that all thrill is gone
  Still will you care and take me home?
  
  Or I’ll call the pusherman
  Call my one and only friend
  Pusherman
  Call my one and only friend
• BAD HABIT
  Give it up, she says
  You’re up to no good
  You’re with me now, get me high
  Walk me around but if I
  
  If I go, if I go your way now
  Will you keep it goin’, will you show me how
  Will you keep it goin’
  Will you show me how to get back home
  
  You’re such bad habit
  Yet I don’t why, I keep coming back to you
  Yet I don’t why, I keep coming back
  Such bad habit
  Yet I don’t why, I keep coming back to you
  Yet I don’t why, I keep on coming back
  
  You’re stepping out instead of playing your part
  Did we stray too far and upset your heart?
  Leaving invisible scars
  
  If I go, if I go your way now
  Will you keep it goin’, will you show me how to
  Will you keep it goin’
  Will you show me how to get back home
  
  You’re such bad habit
  Yet I don’t why, I keep coming back to you
  Yet I don’t why, I keep coming back
  Such bad habit
  Yet I don’t why, I keep coming back to you
  Yet I don’t why, I keep on coming back
• THIRSTY
  I’m thirsty
  I’ll give what you want if you want to
  You got my full attention
  I’m different though
  I’d rather warn you so
  You don’t go crazy, crazy on me
  
  You won’t change me
  Nor tame an only child
  But you’d love to
  I’m a lot like my dad
  You still want me now do you?
  Do you now?
  
  I’m gonna make you right
  It’s that easy
  You’re not just somebody
  Don’t you worry ‘bout me
  
  Enough girl talk
  I played the right cards, you keep shuffling
  You got me wrapped up
  I’ll be careful though
  Gave you my time so I’d fancy some
  Some work in return
  
  I ain’t lonely
  Brought up to live alone, I’ll love you slowly
  So before you act up, get all fired up
  Better let you know
  That I’m just trouble
  Just trouble you know
  
  I’m gonna make you right
  It’s that easy
  You’re not just somebody
  Don’t you worry ‘bout me
