1. I'll Never Let Go4:42
2. Called Out In the Dark4:01

   Letra

   It's like we just can't help ourselves 'Cause we don't know how to back down We were called out to the streets We were called in to the towns And how the heavens, they opened up Like arms of dazzling gold With our rain washed histories Well they do not need to be told Show me now, show me the arms aloft Every eye trained on a different star This magic This drunken semaphore And I We are listening And we're not blind This is your life This is your time We are listening And we're not blind This is your life This is your time I was called out in the dark By a choir of beautiful cheats And as the kids took back the parks You and I were left with the streets Show me now, show me the arms aloft Every eye trained on a different star This magic This drunken semaphore And I We are listening And we're not blind This is your life This is your time [repeats 5x]
3. The Weight of Love4:15

   Letra

   Your ancient threat, I can hear it from the garden I can see it coming, I can see it come for miles What you're thinking right now? 'Cause I think that I can guess If we set off now, we’ll have the highway to ourselves And you love the little signs of life You love it when we lose our minds You love these little wars of words You love it when they call your name, your name A new empire beckons, a new kingdom in the distance No gods are present, just the sky, the earth, and us No wings no halos, nor the thunder in the footsteps 'Cause fear and anger, they are law unto themselves And you love the little signs of life You love it when we lose our minds You love these little wars of words You love it when they call your name It’s the weight of love in your arms It’s the weight of love in your arms It’s the weight of love so gentle in your arms It’s the weight of love in your arms It’s the weight of love in your arms It’s the weight of love so gentle in your arms It’s just like you told me, that I should learn to let it all go It just took ‘til now, for me to get just what you meant My heart is thumping, I can feel it in my fingers No fear, no anger, we are law unto ourselves It’s the weight of love in your arms It’s the weight of love in your arms It’s the weight of love so gentle in your arms It’s the weight of love in your arms It’s the weight of love in your arms It’s the weight of love so gentle in your arms It’s the weight of love in your arms It’s the weight of love in your arms It’s the weight of love so gentle in your arms
4. This Isn't Everything You Are4:58
5. The Garden Rules4:28

   Letra

   There's the river there's your house and there's the church And there's us years ago Deep in your garden where the nettle met the rose Is where we'd hide ourselves Yes we were just kids But you couldn't tell us that These are the garden rules That's what you always said Oh you'll never know how much I love you so Oh you will never know how much I love you You would call the garden rules out like commands And we would all obey But you'd stifle giddy laughter as you spoke And puncture the pretend Then we would chase our tails Until the sun forgot to shine And our parents called our names 'Til just you and I were left Oh you'll never know how much I love you so Oh you will never know how much I love you From your house we walk the river To the church by the silent fields Amongst the lavender and headstones And the larks in our Sunday clothes Your father calls to you As he's looking at his watch You leave me with a kiss On my quickly heating cheek Oh you'll never know how much I love you so Oh you will never know how much I love you
6. Fallen Empires5:19

   Letra

   You called my name in the dark Called me back to the start The condensation is building tension A stubborn silence is formed Around our bodies it's warm The cool wet grasses as summer passes Frightened under attack Fallen flat on my back Arms and legs I'm too scared to beg You haunt me most when it's light The thought of you don't sit right I need the darkness a death grip embrace Razing cities to dust Faces dripping in lust Fallen empires and raging bush fires All your words confounded Secret lives bound and hid Living backwards in tangled back woods You ruined everything right So good I can't see the light From my cave I can see the wave Fallen empires and raging bush fires We are the light, we are the light [repeat until end] Run to the fire [repeat until end]
7. Berlin2:03
8. Lifening3:53
9. New York4:01

   Letra

   If you were here beside me instead of in New York If the curve of you was curved on me I’d tell you that I loved you before I ever knew you 'Cause I loved the simple thought of you If our hearts are never broken and there’s no joy in the mending There’s so much this hurt can teach us both There’s distance and there’s silence, your words have never left me They’re the prayer that I say every day Come on, come out, come here, come here Come on, come out, come here, come here Come on, come out, come here, come here Come on, come out, come here, come here The lone neon nights and the ache of the ocean And the fire that was starting to spark I miss it all, from the love to the lightning And the lack of it snaps me in two If you were here beside me instead of in New York In the arms you said you'd never leave I'd tell you that it's simple and it was only ever thus There is nowhere else that I belong Come on, come out, come here, come here Come on, come out, come here, come here Come on, come out, come here, come here Come on, come out, come here, come here The lone neon nights and the ache of the ocean And the fire that was starting to spark I miss it all from the love to the lightning And the lack of it snaps me in two Just give me a sign, there’s an end and not beginning To the quiet chaos driving me mad The lone neon nights and the walls of the ocean And the fire that is starting to go out
10. In the End3:59

    Letra

    It's the price I guess For the lies I've told That the truth it no longer thrills me And why can't we laugh? When it's all we have Have we put these childish things away? Have we lost the magic that we once had? [Chorus:] In the end, In the end There's nothing more to life than love is there? In the end, In the end It's time for us to lose our weary minds Will you dance with me? Like we used to dance And remember how to move together You are the torch And it all makes sense I've waited here for you forever I've waited here for you forever [Chorus] We're lost 'til we learn how to ask So please please just ask [Chorus]
11. Those Distant Bells3:18

    Letra

    The car crunches gravel and the wind licks at you This dark spell you're under has you dumbstruck by the gate It hurts every muscle just to walk back to the house Now this home that you both made, it looks haunted from the yard You can hear those distant bells and you know they'll never leave It's like your church is crying out, like the wolf calls to her young And the dark never enters but it also never leaves And the spark that he gave you is just an ember all but out If he'd one eye on the exit, oh you never would have known Till he drove off in the darkness like some slowly fading song You can hear those distant bells and you know they'll never leave It's like your church is crying out, like the wolf calls to her young You can hear those distant bells and you know they'll never leave It's like your church is crying out, like the wolf calls to her young
12. The Symphony6:06

    Letra

    Wooden floors Wooden floors whisper And they creak Under your sockless feet A secret door A door undiscovered You knock so gently In case you're heard A record plays A song that you've not heard It is perfect It is home Everything Now everything's different It is sweeter On your tongue Cause you can see the road ahead in your dream The engine's more a sigh than a scream Your ghosts look more like angels from there The coast comes like a raft of warm air Cause you can see the road ahead in your dream The engine's more a sigh than a scream Your ghosts look more like angels from there The coast comes like a raft of warm air A symphony Slow music of longing Plays in movements Inside your head There are no ghosts No ghosts that can shake you Like they used to Anymore Cause you can see the road ahead in your dream The engine's more a sigh than a scream Your ghosts look more like angels from there The coast comes like a raft of warm air You can see the road ahead in your dream The engine's more a sigh than a scream Your ghosts look more like angels from there The coast comes like a raft of warm air If this is all you ever asked for Then this is all you'll get If this is all you ever asked for Then this is all you'll get If this is all you ever asked for Then this is all you'll get If this is all you ever asked for Then this is all you'll get If this is all you ever asked for Then this is all you'll get If this is all you ever asked for Then this is all you'll get If this is all you ever asked for Then this is all you'll get If this is all you ever asked for Then this is all you'll get
13. The President4:34

    Letra

    I've run to ground I've run from everyone that I have ever known I'm aching cold I'm aching from the bones the very blood of me And it's broke before you know it Before you knew what it was for All you know is you can't fix it And you wish you'd listened more To your instincts to your family To the wisdom you'd ignored Are you finally gonna ask us for help? I've crashed to earth But I'd fallen for so long that it was just relief I saw your face In everyone that looked me in my drunken eyes And it's broke before you know it Before you knew what it was for All you know is you can't fix it And you wish you'd listened more To your instincts to your family To the wisdom you'd ignored When you finally gonna ask us for help? I can see you at the front gate As you wait on my return The years have blurred to eons But the tears have never dried But I'm not coming to you like this So battered down and sad I will take the road forgotten again
