Lyrics

Special

I keep you up and restless

I know I’m so relentless  

Can’t stop asking questions 

I don’t want to hear the answers  

 

It’s how you make me feel, special with you 

 

You said I don’t know what I want and you were right 

You said you’re in love but it’s just not the right time  

And now I know what I want, I want you 

But you’re with her and say ‘it’s better if it stays that way’  

 

Only in the night I get scared of my own mind 

The comfort of your arms used to attenuate the fright  

 

Right now the idea of us is what’s keeping me up 

 

I say you don’t know what you want and it’s alright 

I say I feel it too and it’s never the right time 

And now you know what you want, you want me   

But still you’re with her and say ‘it’s better if it stays that way’  

 

You don’t have to be defensive, promise I won’t take advantage 

If only you could see you’re special to me it’s so hard to believe 

I could be as special, special as you’re making me feel  

Telling me your love has been real, promising it’s always been me  

 

You say I don’t know what I want, but I do 

You say you’re in love and there’s nothing left to prove 

And now finally you know what you want, you want me 

But I’m with him and say it’s better if it stays that way  

Overthinking

Overthinking I’m losing my mind 

Suddenly I’m scared of being alive 

Everyone is going crazy sometimes 

Thoughts that were wrong turn out to be right 

 

When I keep thinking it only gets worse 

What is the meaning, is it a curse 

Or is it a blessing not knowing at all 

What is awaiting when I slowly fall 

 

People make me feel uncomfortable 

It’s getting cold yet I’m not ready to go 

When it’s dark outside I don’t like to be at home alone 

My thoughts get carried away, carried away by gloom 

 

When I keep thinking it only gets worse 

What is the meaning, is it a curse 

Or is it a blessing not knowing at all 

What is awaiting when I slowly fall 

 

Encourage me to be different 

But in the end I stay the same 

And to comfort myself I say 

I’ll do something someday  

Encourage me to be different 

But in the end I stay the same 

And to comfort myself I say 

I’m gonna change someday 

 

When I keep thinking it only gets worse 

What is the meaning, is it a curse 

Or is it a blessing not knowing at all 

What is awaiting when I slowly fall 

 

 

Birds

Bad things will always happen 

That’s what I know 

Bad things will always happen 

Well that’s for sure 

Let’s take these broken wings and learn to fly 

Let’s take these broken wings and learn to fly 

 

Some time ago I was high, high in the sky 

Moments later I was crashing down 

And my smile turned into a frown 

I wonder if I knew that I was going down 

Would I savour every moment flying 

Or prepare my fall to the ground? 

 

Feathers flying, lying all around our bones 

Collect them fast and start to build our hearts new homes 

Let’s take these broken wings and learn to fly 

Put together all the shattered things and learn to fly 

Ohohoh – Ohohoh ohoh – Ohohoh 

 

I am always the one to make the first move 

This time I won’t, this time I won’t 

I was always the one to make the first move 

Now I’m alone, now I’m alone 

 

Let’s take these broken wings and learn to fly 

Put together all the shattered things and learn to fly 

 

I thought if I believed it I could fly 

I thought that you taught me how to survive 

But then I fell down from the sky 

And thought my wings would heal with passing time 

I was right 

 

Bad things will always happen 

That’s what I know 

Bad things will always happen 

Well that’s for sure 

Let’s take these broken wings and learn to fly 

Put together all the shattered things and learn to fly 

Ohohoh – Ohohoh ohoh – Ohohoh 

 

Let’s take these broken wings and learn to fly 

Put together all the shattered things and start to fly away 

Rain

Rain keeps me calm when I’m inside the house 

You’re like a storm, you’re raging, you shout 

Some days I fear I have nothing to say 

You don’t feel the same way 

 

So why (do) you keep me company 

When you know you shouldn’t be 

You know this isn’t real 

But I am still, still, still 

 

I hope that you don’t mind 

There’s nothing more to find 

And while you’re pouring down 

I take the noise I make it sound 

And when it’s over then 

The sun comes out again 

For a moment you are gone 

But inside I still hear your song 

Inside I still hear your song 

 

You make me think, `bout how fast life can be 

Good times they come, and they leave 

 

So why (do) you keep me company 

When you know you shouldn’t be 

You know this isn’t real 

But I am still, still, still 

 

I hope that you don’t mind 

There’s nothing more to find 

And while you’re pouring down 

I take the noise I make it sound 

And when it’s over then 

The sun comes out again 

For a moment you are gone 

But inside I still hear your song 

Inside I still hear your song 

 

Although you know, I’ll never show 

I will be waiting for you to go 

And when you’re gone, I still sing the song 

I will be waiting for you to come 

Again 

 

I hope that you don’t mind 

There’s nothing more to find 

And while you’re pouring down 

I take the noise I make it sound 

And when it’s over then 

The sun comes out again 

For a moment you are gone 

But inside I still hear your song 

Inside I still hear your song
