Lyrics.

ITALIAN BEACH HOUSE
Waking up to the sound of the birds 
It's not even noon
And the sun is already giving 
All our skins her energy 

Butterflies flying high around my fingers
Thinking it's XTC 
Blossoms are saying hi to the rayons of sun
They’ve missed so much

Come and see it, come and see it
The world is restoring
People are nice and not boring
I just wish you'd see it…

While drinking your coffee 
On the terrace 
Of our Italian beach house

Even the neighbours said Hi to me
The sky never turns grey anymore
I've kept the dress you always wore
It reminds me of you

And then there's dawn 
When stars come through
And they look at us
Like we're wild animals in a zoo 

Come and see it, come and see it
The world is restoring
People are nice and not boring
I just wish you'd see it…

While drinking your coffee
On the terrace of our Italian beach house
Oh, I wish you could see it
I think you wouldn't believe it

But the world is not restored 
Without you

THAT SUDDEN COLD
I’ve always feared a sudden cold
That would burn upon my chest
When you leave the truth untold     
How it silences the rest
I’ve always feared the cold

Have you ever walked a clouded line
As you wait upon your turn
When you leave a friend behind
And you know you won’t return
I’ve always feared that sudden cold

All my demons came out running
A thousand demons came out running
I was blind
Hiding out in the den
Nothing more than the fear kicking in

Have you ever held a thought so tight
Like a fist filled up on sand
As you you try to squeeze so hard it escapes 
From the holes in your hand
I’ve always feared that sudden cold

When all my demons came out running
A thousand demons came out running
I was blind
Hiding out in the den
Nothing more than the fear kicking in

DON'T YOU (FORGET ABOUT ME) - MDAO version
Won't you come see about me
I'll be alone, dancing
You know it, baby
   
Tell me your troubles and doubts
Giving everything
Inside and out

Will you stand above me, look my way, never love me
Rain keeps falling,
Rain keeps falling down, down, down
Will you recognise me, call my name or walk on by
Rain keeps falling
Keeps falling down

Love's strange so real in the dark 
Think of the tender things that we were working on

Will you stand above me, look my way, never love me
Rain keeps falling,
Rain keeps falling down, down, down
Will you recognise me, call my name or walk on by
Rain keeps falling
Rain keeps falling down

Will you call my name
As you walk on by 
Will you call my name
When you walk away

Will you call my name
As you walk on by
Will you call my name
When you walk away

THE CAT
She took the car and drove all night
All through the darkness into the light
Those little outbursts in a silent way
Were all early signs she would never stay
 
Have you heard from Will?
Better call him up
There’s a rumor going he ran out of luck

Now stay out of reach       
Stay out of sight
What a nice goodbye
What a great delight
 
Do you remember when
You kicked the cat
Then put a curse on everything
We just rolled and danced
To your jealous swing

Consider this: I take the blame
All hell on me but you are still the same

A rich man’s secret
Is a poor man’s crime
You never truly knew
What was on my mind… 
Ta-dada-taa-dada-da

NOTHING MAKES SENSE ANYMORE
My bedroom light is still on 
In my room
I fill my hours with self-help videos 
All day long

If someone were to ask me 
Where I’d be in twenty years
I would just smile and look at them
I would just smile and look at them

My friends don’t call me up 
Anymore
 I’ve become a bit too old 
For their concern

I’ve grown tired of asking for help 
From door to door
Nothing makes sense anymore
The snow hits, the rain falls on the shore
Nothing makes sense anymore

For a ghost lives my life
And I watch it go by
Like the greatest movie of the century
Wish I was cast for this thing
To be in

Last week I cut my hair short
You liked it long
I try to walk past the scales
But fear leads me astray

I’ve read the novels, I pondered a play
What would it be like to be understood
Would you be someone else if you could 

Nothing makes sense anymore
The snow hits, the rain falls on the shore
Nothing makes sense anymore
Nothing makes sense anymore
Nothing makes sense anymore…

ENOUGH
’Cause never can I pay my bills of lost and found
Of luck and thrill
Fuck & kill, this makes me ill
Can I just live… indistinct

Not enough, not enough
Make it stop now
A burden, damn it hurts my back
Let’s cut the cracks
And all the imperfections
I want it all
Limitless in all requests
I stand straight
Can I get a little less of it, of you

I know you mean good
Only the best for your idea, give peace some rest
Defy the world
No honest quest
Enough

On my own will
I'd lose my voice to lose you too
Makes me feel like I’m a fool
Unused tool
Too low for him
Too sad for you, too sad for you

Not enough, not enough
Make it stop now
A burden, damn it hurts my back
Let’s cut the cracks
And all the imperfections
I want it all
Limitless in all requests
I stand straight
Can I get a little less of it, of you

I know you mean good
Only the best for your idea
Give peace some rest
Defy the world
No honest quest
Enough
