Lyrics

Hidden Glances

White gloves and mazes
Could you've chosen another party to reappear
And who's the suit beside you
Does he know who got those earrings for you

Half spoken phrases
Games of hidden glances
Memories like movies
Blurring through the smokescreen
Am I just blowing on embers
Or is this energy between us
Something that you can feel still too

The Mayor's lips are moving
But my ears are trying to hear you laughing across the room
Are you sending silent signals
Or am I just an addict needing to know a fix is near

Half spoken phrases
Games of hidden glances
Memories like movies
Blurring through the smokescreen
Am I just blowing on embers
Or is this energy between us
Something that you can feel still too

Took me years to get back on my feet
And in an instant I'm back on my knees
Your scent makes me re-live long lost dreams
That I'm ashamed I still harbor it seems

Half spoken phrases
Games of hidden glances
Memories like movies
Blurring through the smokescreen
Am I just blowing on embers
Or is this energy between us
Something that you can feel still too

 

This One

She's a train wreck in heels who only wears men's cologne
She doesn't know Jim Beam from scotch
When she walks in the room there's no head left unturned
Everyone stops just to watch
And everyone's thinking it, why is she with me
And I cannot help but agree
Cause there's more depth to her than there are fathoms at sea
Oh she makes this old fool feel at ease

Oh This one
This one
This one
This one
Oh this one
This one
This one
Is the one for me

And she knows for a fact that I don't have a dime
She says it's only a matter of time
She's my trenchman in war through the jokes and the prayers
She's there when I fall and despair
She'll tell me to stand up and beat on my shield
Then whisper so close in my ear
Saying "you've got to keep moving, this too will heal"
Pushing me back in battles I fear

Oh This one
This one
This one
This one
Oh this one
This one
This one
Is the one
Oh this one
Is the one

I'm so scared
Oh I'm petrified
Cause there's only one of her
There's only one of her
And I've made up made up my mind
No there's no way to hide
There's no turning back
And there's no way to deny
Cause there's only one of her
No this one this one
Oh I've made up my mind
Oh this one this one

Oh this one this one
Yes this one, this one
Oh this one is the one for me

Just for me

 
 

Again

I still remember the last fall
My bones have healed all wrong
But these arms still ache to hold
What I'm so scared will bite

I know I swore no more
Trust no one in this war
But before I wall the doors
And feel nothing at all

I want to know what love feels like again
To fall asleep inside that burning pool
I want to touch that wire once again
And know it was all worth it in the end

Everybody is dancing here
And my drink's getting warm
A restless shadow keeps following me
The man I once used to be

I know I swore no more
But I'm growing numb and cold
Yet I'm built on tender stone
Can’t shake that siren call

I want to know what love feels like again
To fall asleep inside that burning pool
I want to touch that wire once again
And know it was all worth it in the end

Where are you tonight?
Are you out there trying to find me, just as well?

Have I ever passed your face on these empty streets?
Has your name been on my lips a thousand times
Am I a fool to still believe you might exist?
Or are you just a ghost that I am cursed to chase?

I want to know what love feels like again
To fall asleep inside that burning pool
I want to touch that wire once again
To know it was all worth it in the end

To hear a whisper cool above the crowd
That leads me at last home to you

Home to you
Home to you

 

Set In Stone

You're feeding me, when you know you shouldn't be
You can't just keep me close, in case you fall
You wanted wings, learn to use the damn things
Cause you, you're no longer welcome here.

Baby please let go, baby please let go
Baby please let go
Now we're on our own

Don't call don't write just stay out of sight I need to be alone
I need to heal these broken bones
Don't call don't write just stay out of sight I need to be alone
Yes my heart is set in stone

It's taken time, and new pictures on the wall
but like a tortured soul, you're back to haunt.
So many things, I wish that I could say to you,
But you, you're no longer her

Baby please let go, baby please let go
Baby please let go
Now we're on our own

Don't call don't write just stay out of sight I need to be alone
I need to heal these broken bones
Don't call don't write just stay out of sight I need to be alone
Yes my heart is set in stone

We’ll never change, we’ll never change
We’ll never change, we’ll never change
Oh don’t fight back, don’t fight back just leave me alone,
Oh don’t fight back, don’t fight back I beg you please,
Oh don’t fight back, don’t fight back just leave me alone,
Oh don’t fight back, don’t fight back I beg you please,
Oh don’t fight back, don’t fight back just leave me alone,
Oh don’t fight back, don’t fight back I beg you please,
Oh don’t fight back, don’t fight back just leave me alone,
Oh don’t fight back, oh don’t fight back I beg you please

Don't call don't write just stay out of sight I need to be alone
I need to heal these broken bones
Don't call don't write just stay out of sight I need to be alone
Yes my heart is set in stone

Don't call don't write just stay out of sight I need to be alone
I need to heal these broken bones
Don't call don't write just stay out of sight I need to be alone
Yes my heart is set in stone

Is set in stone

 

In Blue (Drive By Delivery)

Every time I feel you fade away
Something tells me you'll be back again

The lights are changing and so are we
But where’re you going and who is he?

Make it stop make it stop
My heart is pounding and it won’t let up

Make it stop make it stop
I keep on looking but I just can't watch this

Drive By Delivery Of Sadness for two
Drive by delivery in blue

Drive By Delivery Of Sadness for two
Drive by delivery in blue

The secrets that I whispered in your hair,
Who do they belong to now?

Headlights painting eyes trembling shut
I wish I had the guts to give you up

Make it stop make it stop
My heart is pounding and it won’t let up

Make it stop make it stop
I keep on looking but I just can't watch this

Drive By Delivery Of Sadness for two
Drive by delivery in blue

Drive By Delivery Of Sadness for two
Drive by delivery in blue

Drive By Delivery Of Sadness for two
Drive by delivery in blue

Drive By Delivery Of Sadness for two
Drive by delivery in blue

I keep on looking but I just can't watch
I keep on looking but I just can't watch
I keep on looking but I just can't watch

 

COLLABORATIONS

Slow Shiver - Friendly Fire (rework of Robot Koch - Dragonfly)


Fading photographs, hallways
Missing front teeth, smiling
When did our colors start to change
Where did we learn to cut with words

Hold, friendly fire
I thought you were the foe
But words just like bullets
We can’t take those back

Time is tracing lines
On faces that resemble mine
Yet strangers now know us better
Things we’d learn only from a wake.

Hold, friendly fire
You thought I was the foe
But words just like bullets
We can’t take those back

And sure we can just go on stuck in our own separate ways
But the pages of the calendar turn faster by the day
And I’m tired of being afraid of you, for things I can’t recall
Your hand, the dark, let’s break a fate we never chose once and for all

Hold, friendly fire
We thought we were the foe
But words just like bullets
We can’t take those back

Friendly, friendly fire
Friendly, friendly fire
Friendly fire
Friendly, friendly fire

Anoraak - We Lost (feat. Slow Shiver)

Oh the mess I made the mess I made of loving you
I had no clue I had no clue how to hold you as you grew

Oh it's taking time to stand up again
But we should let go cause there's no way to know

Now we'll never know
No we'll never know
We'll never know what we lost

Oh the mess you made the mess you made of loving me
You didn't know you didn't know how to deal with me and my moods

Oh it's taking time to stand up again
But we should let go as there's no way to know

Now we'll never know
No we'll never know
We'll never know what we lost

Now we'll never know
No we'll never know
We'll never know what we lost

 

Christian Gibson - Tethered (feat. Slow Shiver)

Things got dark
Or I went blind
I couldn’t see
Those quiet signs

The private clues
The public cues

Why was I last
To hear the news?

Moving on
And muting hope

They reassure
Oh I’ll learn to cope

I heard in town
Your changing ways

As we drift apart
It’s been how many days?

It feels like I’m tethered
To you

And I know
Oh there’s nothing I can do

Oh, there’s nothing I can do
There’s nothing I can do

There’s nothing I can do

Things got dark
Or I went blind
I couldn’t see
Those quiet signs

Things got dark
Or I went blind
I couldn’t see
To hear the news?

Things got dark
I went blind

I couldn’t see
Those quiet signs

I went blind

It feels like I’m tethered
To you

And I know
Oh there’s nothing I can do

These lines I can sever
‘Tween us two

And they lead
Oh they lead me back to you

Lead me back to you
Lead me back to you

Lead me back to you
Lead me back to you
Lead me back to you

Lauren Canyon - California (feat. Slow Shiver)

It’s all coming back to me
I see the snapshots in my mind
Still unsure of where I was
If it was fantasy or real

A driveway, a picture frame
A quiet night burst into flames
A dashboard, a risky game
Of what will never be the same

California
You’re driving me wild
California
You’re driving me mad

Going back to normal life
Nothing seems to taste the same

Seeing things on sleepless nights
Could you stop haunting my dreams

I see wild horses, the desert nights
As the embers spell your name

I see the slow cars, the traffic lights
And the shadows in the night

California
You’re driving me wild

California
You’re driving me mad
California
You’re driving me wild

When you are here with me
I want to see, California
No matter what they say
I’m on my way, California

When you are here with me
I want to see, California

No matter what they say
I’m on my way, California

When you are here with me
I want to see, California

No matter what they say
I’m on my way, California

When you are here with me
I want to see, California

No matter what they say
I’m on my way, California
