She’s out of reach I’m out of touch Because I think too much And it’s not abstract Now I’m in too deep Not intimate Because I wasted it On pursuit of fact Mesmerized again Hopes for something different ‘Cause she’s older But it’s over now These frozen footsteps never wander far off path So this is why I’m still alone I won’t settle for less Once you’ve seen the light You can’t crawl back in the cave Perhaps I dreamed too close To the sun
2.
I held your hand by the ocean And let my dream stretch out to the horizon You show me that, this world doesn’t have an end Lay next to you under starlight As we let ourselves float out into the night sky Get you the moon just to see the ends of your mouth bend Waking up is never As hard as When I’m dreaming of you When will I Get to wake up in A world where dreams come true? Your father’s tears line the aisle I lift a veil revealing a smile You show me that my dreams will never have to end Waking up is never As easy as When I’m lying next to you I guess we can Wake up in A world of dreams improved I held your hand by the ocean
3.
Don’t be smart, don’t be kind Don’t be sensitive Don’t be wonderful Because we can’t change our ties So you could whisper words of love In whatever tongue you choose But I’m just too sane now And I can’t start living for you You’ll be my treasure on the beach And I’ll gladly be your maitre d’ It’s so nice to finally meet Evaporate minds Until the floors touch our feet So you could whisper words of love In every tongue you speak But you’re just too sane now And you can’t start living for me And only death could pull me away from you And only a sense of those whom we’re already tied to And only death So you could whisper words of love But never give in to lust Because we’re just too sane now And we can’t start living for us
4.
This is the first time I've felt anything at all This is the first time I've opened myself up Don't let me suppress these feelings down Don't let me forget the sound Of her lies This is the last time I ever try to leave This is the last time I let him place blame on me Stand by me, we'll track lost treasure down Into the abyss we make the sound Of life Convince me I'm nothing And show me I'm all And though we have nothing like the places once called home I feel at home right in your arms Can't make me suppress these feelings down Can't make me forget the sound Of her lies
5.
I’ve made my escape And now I’m breaking you out There’s time to make mistakes That we can shout about And maybe someday we’ll have regrets ‘Cause we missed learning something But right now, everyone wish they were us We’re taking the day off Hey, let’s go for a ride We could’ve stayed in bed But let’s celebrate life You know, sometimes we exploit our friends And they hang it over our heads Sorry, Cam, this day is all about us Oh Sloane I’ll take you right out of his grasp Ol’ Ed thought he had us for sure But he never stood a chance And maybe someday we’ll have regrets ‘Cause we missed learning something And I know someday we’ll have regrets ‘Cause we missed out on something But feel that heart beating in your chest Yeah, hey we still learned some things And I know I’d never not want to be us Yeah, I’m sure I wouldn’t be anyone but
6.
I want to move on to you Yes, I do; I know it And I would like him out of your head What’s he doing there? So take down seven and one more That’s me Why are we wasting time in the cold? Let’s find a door inside And why would we warm up with tea When there’s you, there’s me, and we got chemistry? I may not like it, but I get Their beef with me With hair like a rainbow over time You skate through my mind You could be my American dream I want you to move on to me And I want to spend less time in my head If the world wants you it will have To go through me
7.
Punched in from eight to five, but that’s alright ‘Cause I’ve got no reason to hate Immersed in all new worlds and a romance As we deliver through space And maybe it’s foolish to think I could be the apple of that eye But I’m sure it’s stupid not to try ‘Cause if these notes could make pictures We’d only see your face If I’d write you an opera Could your heart find me a place? And if you’d give up your hand Just to spare my heart Then maybe you already love me And I don’t need the devil’s parts I don’t care if you’re old and manly Would you mind if I had claws? I’ve come from past and future to find you You once loved me as Lars I’d give you my air I’d prefer it for you I’d give you my chair Off this earth before it’s gone Where I choose one over two Purple over blonde I’d be a mutant for you I’d love everything you are
8.
Well, I’m no Nancy, you’re no Sid You make me feel just like a kid Running in circles days on end And hurtful titles like best friends I need labels for sanity My false insurance policy No one can promise tomorrow Besides, who’d ever want to know? I drew my world upon your skin A peek inside let so much in Upon your shoulders, reach new heights While climbing ladders I don’t like But chutes lay where you least expect And falling has reverse effects But we still focus where we want And hate ‘til time allows détente Don’t tell me it’s over Or that it never started Because this world is sick of songs and stories For the broken-hearted Will seasons ever change? Or just get a new name? So the youth lend a hand Because they don’t understand And someday I might learn that’s ‘cause we can’t Don’t tell me it’s over Or that it never started Because this world is sick of songs and stories
9.
She’s from another time But I’ve found I can get there Are we wasting our times? Thinking we’re seeing perfect just ‘cause it’s hind-sight She’s been around with brilliants Am I the next in line? A muse to such great artists While I’m hooked by her looks, she’s hooked by my first lines So save me from ennui Wrap me up in nostalgia And we’ll pretend that all that’s best is in the past And hope our heels find the past We can’t only look backwards And tell a story that’s true You can’t only look outwards You’ll miss what’s right in front of you Don’t make me explain why we can’t stay We can’t swap times we need to live within today We can still make time to walk in the rain You’re the hardest choice I’ve ever made Un au revoir dans Belle-époque Un au revoir pour maintenant J’ai trouvé ma vie J’ai trouvé l’amour
10.
Each cog must serve its purpose To paint a thousand words You’ll serve as my thesaurus And wear the key to unlock worlds So, you’re after adventure? Let’s sneak to silver screens I run the clocks so we’ve got all night long To find the place where they make our dreams You cannot hide true talent Inside a dresser drawer Spirits like hers will find you And push you after more Rotting away amongst this rust Of moving parts until I become dust Toiling away with tinker toys Inducing life from mechanical boys Helping the minutes turn away Wasting each day until I go insane I fear attention but need to be noticed And someday: Isabelle Cabret If you’d only just take my name And help me find lost ways Like we did Monsieur Melies Someday: Isabelle Cabret
11.
She’s got her head up in the clouds She isn’t with us at this time Her words are more than verbs and nouns They create a state of mind She’s got a unicorn to ride And a ship to cross the sea In her castle where she hides This world is more than fantasy And I won’t let you tear her down tonight She’ll be my princess I’ll be her knight You’ve got your words used to describe Like weird, strange, and crazy Such waste of medicine prescribed On a mind that’s much more than healthy Your fear of the new and unique Will only leave you wanting more It’s sad your grasp exceeds your reach Oh what’s a heaven for? And I won’t let you tear us down tonight Just because we have vision before we have sight Come get your head up in the clouds Just to see what you may find Among the beauty that surrounds Above the land of the blind

about

"Do you find you like to fall in love with people that you're never going to meet?" That line from Alkaline Trio's "Love, Love, Kiss, Kiss" brings us to the pathetic driving ideas behind this album. Go ahead, look for an ideal girl. They exist in movies, I'm sure they exist in this world too… Just not in my immediate proximity.
