Unfold every lie Rewind and replay Falling into blue Let down in your mind It's you hurting you Repeating the family line So switch off the day All these bruises you carry will fade To follow the coast And not lay down and give up the ghost If it's more than you You feel you can take He was your life Every kiss a crime Stolen and out of time Don't lay down your head Breathing out the day-to-day To follow the coast Crying I'm not alone in this I'm not alone is this I'm not alone If it's more than you You feel you can take If it's more than you You feel you can take Then hold on Hold on

Boarding my flight Back home from Narita There was ice on the wing And a pain in my head Wheels spinning slow All the way to the airport The storm hit the rain And the rain hit the storm But I couldn't get over Your words said in anger About my life And about our mother But oh brother I know how hard it's been for you in this life Friends don't come easy How foolish I was To think it could be Any different for us I carry this fear Of losing my parents What would I be Would it be years between seeing each other Would you pick up the phone And call your own brother Our dad, he turns seventy this year He'll fly to you to celebrate in Japan It breaks my heart daily That I won't be there I don't feel welcome I don't know how I can Boarding my flight Back home from Narita There was ice on the wing

Heavy in the road after thirty years of leaving Four in the morning Falling like the frost upon my lips And words I don't believe in You and me The more I give I lose In a picture without meaning It's more than miles That keep me from returning Blood from my blood We're all that's left Torn from the start In a past I'd put to rest Unravel the cost It's not only you who feels this loss No family tree No bloodlines Could bring me back In the end Crashing with the waves But I'm stubborn and I'm tired Of giving in Holding back your fist I guess I am my mother Falling in the breeze Forgive then set adrift Blood from my blood We're all that's left Torn from the start In a past I'd put to rest Unravel the cost It's not only you who feels this loss No family tree No bloodlines Could bring me back In the end I know I must go And leave this all behind This sky is overflowing When will we be done Have we lost our way Tell me why Blood from my blood We're all that's left Torn from the start In a past I'd put to rest Unravel the cost It's not only you who feels this loss No family tree No bloodlines Could bring me back In the end

Step out of the doorway Another town, another face among the crowd These hills are not mine And my feet fall heavy on the ground But who knows which way you'd go If the night was at your back Over water, through thin air Head down until the morning comes But the roots in the wires will grow Like babies who are far from home Carried on the breeze Over the highest fence By love without consequence Lifted in each other's arms All young mothers know That time has no place to go It's drifting on our dreams Bring back the olive trees The western seas of old But the roots in the wires will bloom When autumn calls Rain-stained inkwells spreading fear Of all they do not know One boy drowned on TV, a thousand miles away But who knows which way you'd go If the night was at your back Over water, through thin air Head down until the morning comes But the roots in the wires will grow Like babies who are far from home Carried on the breeze Over the highest fence By love without consequence Lifted in each other's arms All young mothers know That time has no place to go It's drifting on our dreams Bring back the olive trees The western seas of old But the roots in the wires will bloom When autumn calls

It was only a dance Two bodies held time for a while He's taking your hand The air grows thin My heart skips a beat Blackout the last light All days will be night Blackout in my heart As you dance to the moon The satellite's down Our last broadcast is in the ground The lies that we keep Safe from the ones we adore Blackout the last light All days will be night Blackout in my heart As you dance to the moon I've got my fill of this guilt I'll share it with you I hear the warning But I stop, start, continue I don't care who I hurt I don't care who I hurt As you dance to the moon Blackout the last light All days will be night Black out in my heart As you dance to the moon

If any little breeze Takes you from me Be Stronger than family Leave by the way you came in Together for a day I play it backwards The silver and orange trees A home at the end of the world A chance to start again Be reinvented Feel hollow and so light Crash through the ice I'm alive, keep breathing For once in my life Come alive, keep breathing out But when I was a child I remember The Flowers and fireworks Hoping the sky would never fall The sound of smashing plates To feel connected To this house To your own child Crash through the ice I'm alive, keep breathing For once in my life Come alive, keep breathing out We're never going to leave this town (it's all coming back) Carry me on the lake (it's all coming back) Under the spanish road (it's all coming back) Tell me you're letting go (it's all coming back) There's no going back Crash through the ice I'm alive, keep breathing For once in my life Come alive, keep breathing out If any little breeze Takes you from me Be Stronger than family A home at the end of the world
