Paradise Fears - When You Come Home

Lyrics:

You may cross the world all by yourself,
you tell me that everything you want is somewhere else,
but when you make it back around,
and your shoes are all worn down,
I’ll be waiting for you when you come home,

Singing ooh,
If you need some safer ground,
Ooh,
I hope you turn your ship around,

You may spend your time with someone else,
You may say he’s everything you wanted for yourself,
He may be perfect now,
But I swear someday he’ll walk out,
And I’ll be waiting for you when you come home,

Singing ooh,
If you need some safer ground,
Ooh,
I hope you turn your ship around,

You may find yourself out in the stars,
Knowing you, you’ve probably got a plan for all you want,
But if someday soon,
You’re on the dark side of the moon,
Oh I’ll be waiting for you when you come home

Paradise Fears - Lullaby




Lyrics:

Late night, phone calls
Bags packed, so long
Night drives, long flight
Nothing good about goodbye, bye

By the time I'm leaving I'll be wishing I could stay
I'll be thinking 'bout you every day a different state
Mile after mile you know I'm always on the road
But I won't let you go

I'll stay up all night, staring at the sky,
You're somewhere on the other side
If you're sleeping alone tonight, let me be your lullaby.
Girl, I've got stars in my eyes,
Cause you look better by my side.
If you're sleeping alone tonight, let me be your lullaby.

Hush now, speak slow
Stay close, don't go
Two hearts, one night,
Wish we didn't have to say goodbye.

By the time I'm leaving I'll be wishing I could stay
I'll be thinking 'bout you every day a different state
Mile after mile you know I'm always on the road
But I won't let you go

I'll stay up all night, staring at the sky
You're somewhere on the other side
If you're sleeping alone tonight, let me be your lullaby
Girl, I've got stars in my eyes
Cause you look better by my side
If you're sleeping alone tonight, let me be your lullaby

Let me be your lullaby, let me be your lullaby

A different night, a different day
Pretty soon it's all the same,
Being without you.

I'll stay up all night, staring at the sky
You're somewhere on the other side
If you're sleeping alone tonight, let me be your lullaby
Girl, I've got stars in my eyes
Cause you look better by my side
If you're sleeping alone tonight, let me be your lullaby

Girl, I've got stars in my eyes
Cause you look better by my side
If you're sleeping alone tonight, let me be your lullaby

Let me be your lullaby, let me be your lullaby.

Paradise Fears - What Are You Waiting For?


Lyrics:

Oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh,
We’re alive, we’re alive,
What are you waiting for?

I think I’m going broke, from paying my dues,
I’ve been tossed and turned, left black and blue.
I’ve been faced with decisions where I have to choose,
It's either one you win, one you lose,
These times will get you so damn mad,
You’ve gotta roll with the punches,
And smile with the sad.
Tell myself when I finally look back,
I’ll think, Oh my god,
What a life I’ve had.

We’re alive, we’re alive,
What are you waiting for?
We’re alive, we’re alive,
What are you waiting for?

I remember when my dad told me he thought I could make it,
This world is only there for those willing to take.
Now, stop at nothing, no matter the cost of it,
A thousand loves, a thousand loves,
There’s a world that I’ve heard of,
I’m planning to see it.
I can be anything if I only believe it,
Tell myself when I finally look back,
I’ll think, Oh my god,
What a life I’ve had.

They said there’s heaven if you wait,
But I think I’m living right through it,
Oh you wanna live forever huh?
Well then just do it.

Oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh,
We’re alive, we’re alive,
What are you waiting for?
Oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh,
We’re alive, we’re alive,
What are you waiting for?

They say it’s a long road,
But lately I don’t know,
If this life I’m living is all that I’m meant for.
So I’m gonna live my life by my mom’s little advice, she said,
You love it, embrace it,
You want it, then chase it.

Oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh,
We’re alive, we’re alive,
What are you waiting for?
Oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh,
We’re alive, we’re alive,
What are you waiting for?

Oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh,
We’re alive, we’re alive,
What are you waiting for?
Oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh,
We’re alive, we’re alive,
What are you waiting for?

What are you waiting for?

Paradise Fears - Who You Are

A very meaningful and touching song by Paradise Fears. One of their best songs yet!


P/S: You can get the full lyrics in the video description, but I've edited them here so it's easier for you to sing along with :)

Lyrics:

She tells me love is like a train,
And she keeps falling off again,
I guess she's sick of being left
Behind

She says this story's all the same,
So full of circumstance and shame,
I guess she's sick of watching life pass by,

I said what keeps you going, 
What keeps you waking up,
She just smiles and shrugs her shoulders, 
Says, "You know, it's not so tough,"

'Cause if there's one thing in life, 
That I've learned so far,
It's that we're all a little stronger 
Than we think we are.
And you can bend a little farther, 
Or you can stay just how you are.
Just how you are

She says there must be more than this,
"I work 2 jobs to feed 2 kids,"
And it's been 2 months since he left without goodbye,

I've still got bills to pay,
The world feels heavier every day,
Slowly getting harder for me just to try,

I said what keeps you going, 
What keeps you waking up,
She just smiles and shrugs her shoulders, 
Says, "You know, it's not so tough,"

'Cause if there's one thing in life, 
That I've learned so far,
It's that we're all a little stronger 
Than we think we are.
And you can bend a little farther, 
Or you can stay just how you are.
Just how you are

*Musical Interval*

She said I'm trying to have faith,
But even food has lost its taste,
My greatest fear is I've been left here all alone,

She said I miss 'em every day,
All I can do is pray they're safe,
Reliving memories, 
Oh we used to call this home,

She said, "Sammy, I need something,
Just for once in my life,
I need someone else to tell me
Everything will be alright."

I said there's one thing in life, 
That I've learned so far,
It's that we're all a little stronger 
Than we think we are.
And you can bend a little farther, 
But just remember who you are
Oh , who you are
Who you are
Who you are
