[Verse 1]
Summer is over
Darkness has started to fall
The roads are red and the sun has left us wanting more
The power is out and the monsters are under your bed
The doors are creaking and the sounds are caught in your head
[Chorus]
But you will be alright
Be alright
But you will be alright
Be alright
[Verse 2]
The streets are so quiet
Like they're only trod on by you
Caught in a moment where you're treated by solitude
She's always there but she mostly comes out at night
She'll rub her eyes and you will get home in her light
[Chorus]
Yeah, you will be alright
Be alright
But you will be alright
Be alright
But you will be alright
Be alright
But you will be alright
Be alright
[Bridge]
Don't believe in monsters
Don't believe in monsters
Don't believe in monsters
[Verse 3]
She's always there but she mostly comes out at night
She'll rub her eyes and you will get home in her light
[Chorus]
Yeah, you will be alright
Be alright
But you will be alright
Be alright
But you will be alright
Be alright
But you will be alright
Be alright

The Truth (Home Session)

[Verse 1]
We are going to meet and
Then we’ll talk it out
We could share a cup of chai tea
In the bed room
In the bed room
The walls might witness
Our grandest of fights
But they, like you, will now
Hear the truth
The truth
[Chorus]
Both of us know what it means to feel good
And that it takes a long time yeah
If everything goes the way I think it should
Maybe we’ll have a good time yet
[Verse 2]
I know that you
Want to leave it there
Pack your bags and your toothbrush
And leave me here
Leave me here
I won’t try to
Lie or justify
I just want to make it right
For you and I
You and I
[Chorus]
Both of us know what it means to feel good
And that it takes a long time yeah
If everything goes the way I think it should
Maybe we’ll have a good time yet
Both of us know what it means to feel good
And that it takes a long time yeah
If everything goes the way I think it should
Maybe we’ll have a good time yet

[Verse 1]
The show comes to close
And everybody knows but you
I’m really shining tonight
I know my part well but I don’t know what to do
[Pre-Chorus]
You don’t know what it does to me
When you run away home
[Chorus]
If you go there
You should know that
You will leave with my heart
I’ll be your shoulder
Be my boulder
We will be a work of art
If you go there
You should know that
You will leave with my heart
I’ll be your shoulder
Be my boulder
We will be a work of art
[Verse 2]
An exceptional blow
‘cause I can see the night is turning into day
I think you’re ready to go
I know my lines well but I don’t know what to say
[Pre-Chorus]
You don’t know what it does to me
When you run away home
[Chorus]
If you go there
You should know that
You will leave with my heart
I’ll be your shoulder
Be my boulder
We will be a work of art
If you go there
You should know that
You will leave with my heart
I’ll be your shoulder
Be my boulder
We will be a work of art
[Bridge]
All of my dreams amount to you
Why are you silent
When you run away home?
[Chorus]
If you go there
You should know that
You will leave with my heart
I’ll be your shoulder
Be my boulder
We will be a work of art
If you go there
You should know that
You will leave with my heart
I’ll be your shoulder
Be my boulder
We will be a work of art

[Verse 1]
Shadows play
In the light that keeps the dark out
Candles sway
In the night that keeps me warm now
In this room
I can taste the air you breathe out
In this gloom
I could rest and never break out
Uh
Uh
[Chorus]
Never break
Never break
Never break out
Never break
Never break
Never break out
Never break
Never break
Never break out
Never break
Never break
Never break out
[Verse 2]
Time looks in
At the world that we create here
That’s ok
‘cause time don’t belong here
When you smile
I can touch the words you speak to me
If you cry
I’ll drink the tears from your eyes
[Chorus]
Never break
Never break
Never break out
Never break
Never break
Never break out
Never break
Never break
Never break out
Never break
Never break
Never break out
Uh
Never break
Never break
Never break out
Never break
Never break
Never break out

Empty Box (Home Session)
04:17
|

|
[Verse 1]
There’s nothing left
To talk about
You’ve made your choice
And I’ve made mine
An empty bed
An empty box
We used to share
Is all that I leave behind
[Chorus]
You won’t keep me down
‘cause you don’t know what I’ve found
A side of me you’ll never know
In your darkest night
When your walls, they squeeze you tight
You could have had me
But you just lost that right
[Verse 2]
I used to try
I used to want
I used to need
For you to see me
Outside
That empty box
You always
Keep me in
[Bridge]
But time
Moves on
And so do I
[Chorus]
You won’t keep me down
‘cause you don’t know what I’ve found
A side of me you’ll never know
In your darkest night
When your walls, they squeeze you tight
You could have had me
But you just lost that right
[Outro]
You won’t keep me down
You won’t keep me down
You won’t keep me down
You won’t keep me down
You won’t keep me down
You won’t keep me down
