CONCERT LYRICS

Daylight

Whatever daylight we have left

Let's make a promise unto death

That we spend it well, spend it well

You and I are but a breath in all of time

Livin' life like it's a never ending climb

Days pass slow, we fill 'em with the same old same old

But every day's a new arrival

Each turn, a new horizon

Want it to keep surprising me

Whatever daylight we have left

Let's make a promise unto death

That we spend it well, spend it well

How many heartbeats in our chest

No way to know until we rest

So let's spend it well, spend it well

There's no time To make believe we're standing by

We're in motion Like the never-ending tide

We won't fold And just sit beside the road

Everybody's got a race

That we were made to chase

Don't leave a second wasted

Whatever daylight we have left

Let's make a promise unto death

That we spend it well, spend it well

How many heartbeats in our chest

No way to know until we rest

So let's spend it well, spend it well

Monument

Said goodbye to house and home

Set off for the great unknown

Didn't we hear that voice

That sent our spirits reeling

Trembling before the choice

But couldn't shake the feeling

​

This is the moment when everything's clear

We know who we are, we know why we're here

Before all we have are feathers caught in the wind

We'll raise a monument

​

Mountaintops that called our name

Looming closer day by day

Didn't they seem so small

When standing at a distance?

Looking back I can't recall

A path of worse resistance

​

One day we say we've come alive

The next we think we've lost our minds

Are we crazy? Are we doing well?

It's getting harder and harder and harder to tell

Write it all down in stone

I know this won't last long...

​

​

Alone Together

I've heard everybody talking

I've heard that the worst is yet to come

They say we won't even notice

They say it's a matter of time

They say we're two birds singing in a cage in a coal mine

​

I don't wanna be alone together

I don't wanna be close like stars

Side by side, my love, but still a million miles apart

​

I'm not scared that you're gonna leave me

I'm scared that you're gonna stay

And you'll be alone with your memories

And I'll be alone in my mind

And we'll be those two birds singing in the cage in the coal mine

​

I don't wanna be alone together

I don't wanna be close like stars

Side by side, love, but still a million miles apart

I don't wanna spend a life pretending

Tied together and tired of

A neverending story of us

Ever falling out of love

House on Fire

I was raised to run away from anything on fire

And never told that everything gold was refined in flame

When it came to friction I fixed my eyes onto the floor

And when they closed the door, I learned to do the same

​

I was taught that love was always easy, always fine

It never crossed my mind that we could ever be so far gone

The more I bite my tongue, the more we seem to fall apart

The more I start to think that maybe I was wrong

​

This is like running headlong straight into a hurricane

It's breaking down the door to a house on fire

​

All you wanted was to know that I was on your side

All I wanted was to keep the wolves at bay

I kept myself protected at the cost of being true

Oh, but I won't make you pay that price today

​

This is like running headlong straight into a hurricane

It's breaking down the door to a house on fire

It's closing in to panic in the pouring rain

It's fighting for the thing I most desire

​

Come what may, we'll find a way to make it all work out

I gave you my word, and you gave me your solemn vow

It's funny, I know, but what I wanna know right now

Is would you say it again when the world is burning down?

Would you say it again when the world is burning down?

Close Eye

You've been quiet as a Sunday morning

More and more as the weeks go by

I've been looking at you all night

Oh you're not alright

And I know we're not fine

I'm reaching out, but the words aren't forming

I'm not sure how to break the ice

I don't want to hear you say you're alright

If you're not alright

And I know you're not fine

You and me, babe  

We might've got lost along the way

But I'm gonna keep a

Close eye

on your heart today

You and me, babe

We've come too far now just to throw it away

And I'm gonna retrace

Through time

To your heart today

I can own my share of the burden

I dig my heels and refuse to change

Bring it to a knock-down, drag-out fight

Cause I wanna be right

And I know it's not fine

(So) Let's take a drive and just start turning

Find a place we can see the sun rise

We can work it out, yeah we'll make it alright

If it takes all night

Oh we're gonna be fine

You and me, babe

We might've got lost along the way

But I'm gonna keep a

Close eye

on your heart today

You and me, babe

We've come too far now just to throw it away

And I'm gonna retrace

Through time…

To get back to your heart

Get back to your heart

Get back to your heart

Get back, get back to your heart

Get back, get back to your heart

Get back, get back to your heart

Invocation

We have come a long way

We traveled all day to be here now

You have got a seat at the table

It's yours if you're able to stick around

Will the time tonight be worth it?

Well, darlin, I don't know

Not a one of us is sure how this might go

So meet me in the valley

And we'll lay down in the snow

Like we're waiting for the northern lights to show

And you'll feel it like an arm around your shoulder 

And it seems to stop the aching in your bones  

If it lingers in your memory when it's over

Then I hope it feels a little bit like home

We are holding our breath

For whatever comes next

For what we find

You could hold on to your secret

Or maybe we could release it

To the emerald sky

And I wrote down what I'd tell you

But it never turns out right

Heavens knows it's hard to say the things we mean

So I'll sing it like I'd say it

Nothing hidden in between

That you're welcome and you're wanted and you're seen

And you feel it like an arm around your shoulder  

And it seems to stop the aching in your bones

If it lingers in your memory when it's over

Then I hope it feels a little bit like home

(It's like coming home

It's like coming home

It's like coming home again.)

And you feel it like an arm around your shoulder  

And it seems to stop the aching in your bones

If it lingers in your memory when it's over

Then I hope it feels a little bit like home

Yeah, I hope it feels a little bit like home

Break My Heart

Everybody here knows just how this one goes

Started out thinking that you didn't wanna get that close

Do you go? Do you go? Do you go?

Everybody here knows just how this one feels

Your heart begins to open and

Your head begins to reel

And it goes. And it goes. And it goes.

You and I are passengers who just can't stop the train

(We're) headed for the one goodbye that we can't bring ourselves to say

You see it coming for a long time, but you can't get out of the way

I know you're gonna break my heart someday.

Everybody here knows just how this plays out

Wondered if you'd ever love anything that you could not live without

Now you know. Now you know. Now you know

(That) you and I are passengers who just can't stop the train

Headed for the one goodbye that we can't bring ourselves to say

You see it coming for a long time, but you can't get out of the way

I know you're gonna break my heart someday.

I'm gonna hold on until then

And make the most of every moment

That we have until the end

When we go. When we go. When we go

You and I are passengers who just can't stop the train

Headed for the one goodbye that we can't bring ourselves to say

I've seen it coming for a long time, but I won't get out of the way

I know you're gonna break my heart
I know you're gonna break my heart

I know you're gonna break my heart someday
