Cheap hotels on summer nights The ripples in the moonlight I’m in the airport just trying to find my way All the sights and all the signs They crossed over a line A weapon drawn on a cool Monday And it’s all right To feel alone It’s all right In a city you don’t know It’s all right To feel alone Does it mean that you won’t go City signs no one sees Empty bottles in the frozen street Old habits I outgrew Those old pictures that we’d keep Hidden well behind the backseat Show someone who looks a lot like you used to And it’s all right To feel alone Querétaro I can feel you in the air in Mexico And it’s all right To feel alone Does it mean that you won’t go I’m on the outside looking in At this life I could have lived With someone I used to know And it’s all right To feel alone It’s all right In a city you don’t know It’s all right To feel alone Does it mean that you won’t go

Sydney 03:31
So do I pretend to know what she’s going through So do I pretend to understand what she’s into So do I ask her what she wants, do I want it, too Got lost somewhere and I won’t get through this Lost somewhere and I won’t get through this Lost somewhere and I won’t get through this So when she tells me I’m no good, do I make her wait So after all this time we’re still staying up too late So won’t she tell me what, tell me what to do to be saved Got lost somewhere and I won’t get through this Lost somewhere and I won’t get through this Lost somewhere and I won’t get through this Oh, won’t she help me out, cause I won’t get through this Oh, won’t she come get down, cause I won’t get through this Oh, won’t she let me go, cause I won’t get through this I’m still waiting on her call My back’s still pressed against her walls Get me a ticket, get it for free Take me back, take me to Sydney

Silhouettes 03:33
Little lies you say Little lies make everything ok Ok Little lies you spread Little lies held over my head My head Ooh (2x) Waterfalls Of little lies you told me off the cuff Never letting one get back to her Is it ever enough Penniless and cold Penniless with your fucked up ghost in tow In tow But it’s more than smoke and mirrors There’s more than ghosts outside your door I’m sure I’m sure Ooh (2x) Waterfalls Of little lies you told me off the cuff Never letting one get back to her Is it ever enough Silhouettes The pretty faces you just can’t forget A picture frame and some cigarettes Are all that is left (Bridge) Waterfalls Of little lies you told me off the cuff Never letting one get back to her Is it ever enough Silhouettes The pretty faces you just can’t forget A picture frame and some cigarettes Are all that is left

Where do I stand Where do I stand in this room When I talk to you There’s paint on my hands The sinks don’t work and my chest expands What do I do When I see you So where do I stand My head explodes into the fan What do I do When I see you So where do I go When the lights go out and there’s no telephone How do I know When the day glows you’ll be back at home if you don’t call You won’t call You won’t call You won’t call I can’t forget you after all Pixie queen With your hold over me Pixie queen You leather jacket fiend I can’t make you, but I can hate you Just tell me what to do You don’t know me, I’m more than I seem I don’t know what it means to you There’s so much more to us than meets the eye, than you realize We can’t see, we can’t see ourselves through your eyes Oh god, we’ve tried Pixie queen I’m still talking to your ceiling Pixie queen Interrupting your television dreams Confuse me, don’t move me, use me, don’t lose me I’m not just some girl in the street There’s so much more to us than meets the eye, than you realize We can’t see, we can’t see ourselves through your eyes Oh god, we’ve tried Pixie queen, pixie queen, leather jacket fiend, with your hold on me Pixie queen, pixie queen, you and your television dreams
