Andrew Belle - All Those Pretty Lights

The wind blows through your hair
As you're walking people stare
Up the block and down the street to North King's highway

And there's a beating in my chest
And it's seeming to suggest
That before this day is through it might go my way

And so I sit back in my seat
I scribble down something that's sweet about a boy
A girl
An endless stretch of scenery

'Cause it's like falling to your knees before a stranger on the street
I did it just the other day
You should have seen me

Oh
And I wanna remember this night
And how my words never came out right
It's just my patience that keeps me alive
Just like all those pretty lights
Just like all the pretty lights in the sky

There's something to be said about the colors in your head
And how they mix to form the perfect shade of sadness

Not because of things I've done or any of the songs I've sung
It's just the story of our lives
We wish we had this

Oh
And I wanna remember this night
And how my words never came out right
It's just my patience that keeps me alive
Just like all those pretty lights

Just like all the pretty lights in the sky

And I remember we stayed up way past your bedtime
Up on the second floor
Down by my sliding door

Just innocent kids in a victimless crime
Trapped in a metaphor
Hoping for something more

And I wanna remember this night
And how my words never came out right
It's just my patience that keeps me alive
Oh
Just like all those pretty lights
Just like all the pretty lights in the sky

Oh
And I wanna remember this night
And how my words never came out right
It's just my patience that keeps me alive
Oh
Just like all those pretty lights
Just like all the pretty lights in the sky

In the sky
Just like all those pretty lights
Just like all the pretty lights in the sky

In the sky
Just like all those pretty lights
Just like all the pretty lights in the sky

Andrew Belle - I'll Be Your Breeze

He walks in the bedroom
And picks up the phone
He's singing to the beat of the dialtone
If he could he would shrink down
To fit through these holes
In rubber and plastic
That'd be fantastic
He'd crawl through these phonelines
To castles or farms
Or just across the stateline
And into your arms
We'd learn to distinguish truth
From false alarms
And fade into summer
Like we were the months of the year

And we'll fall asleep
Every night so easily
Like some kind of brand new disease
Hey we got it but c'est la vie
Don't you wonder how villains sleep
Every night so easily
If they can do it baby so can we

Just remember I'll be your breeze

Oh well i feel like myself
I finally feel like myself
Honey don't you feel like yourself
Feel like yourself
Cause I learned we all play
Our part in this thing
We've all got a song we were
Put here to sing
It's less of a circle and more of a ring
That keeps up together
Like we were prize fighters

I'll be like that
Heart that you cut out
And pinned on your sleeve
I thought I told you
That I needed you
Just to keep breathing

Andrew Belle - Open Your Eyes

Open your eyes now
Open your eyes now
It's time to see
If you can reach me

Open your eyes now
Open your eyes now
It's time to leave
It's time to leave me

Open your eyes now
Open your eyes now
It's time to see
If you still believe me

Open your life now
Open your life now
I'll try to be
All that you need me
To be

She'll be a star now
I will follow her lead
She'll be a scar now
I will still let her bleed

Open your eyes now
Open your eyes now
Try to speak
Like you can see me

Open your eyes now
Open your eyes now
I'll try to be

Almost everything
You need me to be

She'll be a star now
I will follow her lead
She'll be a scar now
I will still let her bleed
All over me

She'll be a star now
She'll be a scar now

She'll be a star now
She'll be a scar now

She'll be a star now
She'll be a scar now

She'll be a star now
She'll be a scar now

She'll be a star now
She'll be a scar now

She'll be a star now
She'll be a scar now
I will let her bleed
All over me

All over me

Andrew Belle - My Oldest Friend

Don't wanna sound ridiculous
but I think you know I'm sick of this
and I kinda think that we can bend, do you?
I'll try to be a better friend to you
you know I miss ya in my life
and I kinda think that I realise
that I was only lookin' out for me
instead of gettin' you the help you need

who do you think you are?
who do I think I am?
barely listening to my oldest
my oldest friend

oh my oldest, my oldest friend

I've given one, you've taken two
but this medicine has followed you
from the eastern coast and back again
so I tell you once but not again
that I only miss you in my life
and I hope you finally realise
that I'm only looking out for you
when I'm not afraid to see this through

who do you think you are?
who do I think I am?
barely listening to my oldest
my oldest friend

oh my oldest, my oldest friend

So wanna sound ridiculous
'cause I think you know I'm sick of this
and I kinda think that we can bend, do you?
I'll try to be a better friend to you
you know I miss ya in my life
and I kinda think I realise
that I was only lookin' out for me
instead of gettin' you the help that you need

whoa-oh, whoa-oh oooh, whoa-oh oooh

Andrew Belle - In My Veins

Nothin goes as planned.
Everything will break.
People say goodbye.
In their own special way.
All that you rely on
And all that you can fake
Will leave you in the morning
But find you in the day

Oh you're in my veins
And I cannot get you out
Oh you're all I taste
At night inside of my mouth
Oh you run away
Cause I am not what you found
Oh you're in my veins
And I cannot get you out.

Everything will change.
Nothin stays the same.
And nobody here's perfect.
Oh but everyones to blame
All that you rely on
And all that you can save
Will leave you in the morning
And find you in the day

Oh you're in my veins

And I cannot get you out
Oh you're all I taste
At night inside of my mouth
Oh you run away
Cause I am not what you found
Oh you're in my veins
And I cannot get you out.

No I cannot get you out.
No I cannot get you.

Everything is dark.
It's more than you can take.
But you catch a glimpse of sun light.
Shinin, down on your face.

Oh you're in my veins
And I cannot get you out
Oh you're all I taste
At night inside of my mouth
Oh you run away
Cause I am not what you found
Oh you're in my veins
And I cannot get you out

Andrew Belle - Sky's Still Blue

Your heart is a city
Your eyes are a fixture
The mind tells a story
With ten thousand pictures
We stumble upon it
Fell through the ceiling tiles

We drew up a landscape
We climbed down a ladder
Carved out a memory
To follow the pattern
And now on a clear glass wall
I can see my faith
You know it's never too late

Oh, if you're hearing this
I must have made it through
Oh, when the clouds are burned
Open up my window
I see the sky's still blue

A vision is a portrait
A palate of colors
We swim in an ocean
With blindfolded lovers
And now that I've found my side
Oh, I finally realize that it was there the whole time

Oh, if you're hearing this
I must have made it through
Oh, when the clouds are burned
Open up my window
I see the sky's still blue

I see that the sky is still blue

Oh, if you're hearing this
I must have made it through
Oh, when the clouds are burned
Open up my window
I see the sky's still blue

Oh, if you're hearing this
I must have made it through
Oh, if you're hearing this
I see the sky's still blue

Andrew Belle - Make It Without You

This is the starting of my greatest fear
I'm all packed up, getting out of here
But then you call and tell me not to go
That I'm the one who put the rock n roll
In your life

This is the starting of a brand new day
Never liked this town much anyway
I need this city like I need the rain
I know that somewhere there's a north bound train

Oh I'll
Make it without you
Make it without you
Though my body's laying here
It's my mouth that must be lying now

This is the starting of my fall from grace
My self esteem, oh it's seen better days
But you know I'll never let this go to waste
I'll keep this memory on the map I trace
Back to home

Friends go out, but I've been staying in
I know I should, but that's the way it's been
I never cared much for the taste of gin
Still don't now, oh, but it's been helping

Oh I'll
Make it without you
In my life
Oh I'll make it without you
Though my body's laying here
It's my mouth that must be lying now
It's my mouth that must be lying now

Oh I
Oh I'll make it without you
Oh I
Oh I'll make it without you
Oh I
Oh I'll make it without you!

Though my body's laying here
It's my mouth that must be lying now

Andrew Belle - Oh My Stars

Have a seat upon this branch of mine
It's been a while honey I think I feel fine
I see the question mark a top your spine
I've got a ladder honey won't you let me climb
Tell me all about your foreign wars
And all about the photographs that line your drawers
Cause I know a lot about closing doors
But not enough about what opens up yours

Oh my my
Oh my stars
Everything you see is ours
Or it could be if you would try
I wish you would
I wish you might
Oh oh
If everything you've said to me has been true
Then all my stars are leading me to you
Ooh ooh ooh ooh

Have a seat upon this branch of mine

It's been a while honey won't you take your time
And I see the question mark a top your spine
I've got a ladder honey wont you let me climb

Oh my my
Oh my stars
Everything you see is ours
Or it could be if you would try
I wish you would
I wish you might
Oh oh
If everything you've said to me has been true
Then all my stars are leading me to you
Ooh ooh ooh ooh

Oh my my

Andrew Belle - Tower

How the fog hangs above
The cityscape
There's a cloud of angels
Above your bed tonight

I'm watching through the window
On the fire escape
By the line weighing your laundry
There's ripples in the bed sheets
Like waves in a sea
From every breathe you're taking

I'm walking a tight rope
Above the city
Cars are passing by
Beneath my feet

I'm wanting you to walk with me
On this wire, from tower to tower

When the dusk settles in
The torture begins
In my chest the fire won't rest
From the secrets that we kept

There's a symphony of sirens
Down on the street
And all of the noise makes my ears ring
These syncopated lights
Have convinced my eyes
That I've become hypnotized

Andrew Belle - The Ladder

Woe is me
Faithless you and selfish me
I will leave a key for you outside my doorway

Woe is me
One if by the land or two by sea
So won't you leave for me a light outside your doorway

On a ladder from there to here I'll climb
All this clatter between my ears I find
Does it matter if I can't clear my mind
There's a right and a wrong time

Woe is me
Sentimental you and faithful me
And I will be the one to gaze on you discreetly

Slow your speed
Turn yourself around and follow me
'Cause I will be the one who preys upon you sweetly

On a ladder from there to here I'll climb
All this clatter between my ears I find
Does it matter if I can't clear my mind
There's a right and a wrong time

Whoa
Oh
Whoa
Oh
Oh

Whoa
Oh
Whoa
Oh
Oh

On a ladder from there to here I'll climb
All this clatter between my ears I find
Does it matter if I can't clear my mind
There's a right and a wrong time
There's a right and a wrong time
There's a right and a wrong time

Whoa
Oh
Whoa
Oh
Oh

Whoa
Oh
Whoa
Oh
Oh

Andrew Belle - Add It Up

Tell me which way is up
I'm getting lost for crying out loud
Had a point I meant to make
Came to me as the wheels touched down

Come to think of it
I'm the one who's letting you down
Tell me what does it for you now that I'm not around

I know it doesn't add up when you put it on paper
You were playing by the water 'cause you knew I would save you
Now that your time's run out

Static climbs inside my mind
All these lines they blur into one
Higher road they turn and wind
All this time my back's to the sun

Come to think of it
I'm surprised that I didn't run
What's to make of it
The parts were not as great as the sum

I know it doesn't add up when you put it on paper
You were playing by the water cause you knew I would save you
Now that your time's run out

Oh when you add it all up
You'll see that nobody made you
You were clinging for your life as the memory escaped ya
Now that your time's run out

I need a second wind of hope now
I need a second wind, a second to myself now
Now that my time's run out

Andrew Belle - Don't Blame Yourself

Oh
I don't get to sleep very well anymore because of you
Oh
And all my jeans are torn from begging on my knees in front of you

Oh
Don't blame yourself
Oh
Don't blame yourself 'cause I know that you try
But you need someone to be
Someone better than me in your life

Oh
I don't like to be very sentimental if I don't have to be
Oh
But I think that I just may have glued my hands to yours
If you had asked me

Oh
Don't blame yourself
Oh
Don't blame yourself 'cause I know that you try
But you need someone to be
Someone better than me in your life

Oh
Don't blame yourself
Oh
Don't blame yourself 'cause I know that you try
But you need someone to be
Someone better than me in your life

Oh
Don't blame yourself
Oh
Don't blame yourself 'cause I know that you try
But you need someone to be
Someone better than me in your life

Oh
Don't blame yourself
Oh
Don't blame yourself 'cause I know that you try
But you need someone to be
Someone better than me

Oh
Don't blame yourself
Oh
Don't blame yourself 'cause I know that you try
But you need someone to be
Someone better than me in your life

You need someone to be
Someone better than me in your life

You need someone to be
Someone better than me in your life

Andrew Belle - Static Waves

I count the steps from where I am
To where I started
I tap my feet
And close the door, to your apartment
And I know you're never gonna understand

It's too late for you to stop and think
Too late to mention
I make a move and spill my drink
To break the tension
I know you're never gonna understand
I'll try my best to follow if I can, but

I would have let you leave [x3]

The static waves across the screen
Define this notion
Back and forth and in between
Like my emotion
And I know you're never gonna understand
And won't you slow this down oh if you can
You swayed your hips and stole the breathe
That I was taking

I touched your lips and held your hands
When they were shaking

Look how we've fallen upon our knees
How we forgot it
These empty halls held our disease
Before we caught it
Now out the door and down the stairs from your apartment
I would have let you leave

The static waves across the screen
Define this notion
Back and forth and in between
Like my emotion
Now out the door and down the stairs
From your apartment
I count the steps from where I am
To where I started
I would have let you [x3]
I would have let you leave
