Bomb In A Birdcage (2009)












What I Wouldn't Do lyrics - A Fine Frenzy

If we were children I would bake you a mud pie
Warm and brown beneath the sun
Never learned to climb a tree but I would try
Just to show you what I'd done

Oh what I wouldn't do
If I had you, babe, I had you
Oh what I wouldn't do
If I had you, babe

If I were old, my dearest, you would be older
But I would crawl upon your lap
Wrap a blanket round our frail little shoulders
And I'd die happily like that

Oh what I wouldn't do
If I had you, babe, I had you
Oh what I wouldn't do
If I had you, babe, if I had you

So lace your hands round the small of my back and I will kiss you like a king
I will be your bride, I'll keep you warm at night
I will sing, I will sing

It was now and we were both in the same place
Didn't know how to say the words
With my heart ticking like a bomb in a birdcage
I left before someone got hurt

'Cause it was what I wouldn't do
If I had you, babe, I had you
It was what I wouldn't do
When I had you, babe, when I had you

New Heights lyrics - A Fine Frenzy

You are a thunderous thing, wondrous king
The face of rival-less gods, deep in your thoughts
Come here, oh, closer to touch, never enough
Let me climb under your skin, oh let me in

From your lips a precipice
I hang from every word
Height and seeking
Oh we are reaching
New heights and seeking
How to keep them high

The calm of turbulent seas, fallen to sleep
And when the troubles arise, we hold on tight
How can a body contain something so great
My shell may suddenly burst out will come birds

From your, lips a precipice
I hang on every word
Height and seeking
Oh we are reaching
New heights and seeking
How to keep them high

We will find a way
We will find a way
We will find a way
We will find a way

And we are high and seeking,
Oh we are reaching
New heights and seeking
How to keep them high

And we are high and seeking,
Oh we are reaching
New heights and seeking
How to keep them high

And we are high and seeking,
Oh we are reaching
New heights and seeking
How to keep them high

Electric Twist lyrics - A Fine Frenzy

You should be wilder, you're no fun at all
Yeah, thanks for the input
Thanks for the call

With dull knives and white hands
The blood of a stone
Cold to the touch, right
Right down to the bone

But you give me the electric twist and it kicks like kicks like a pony
And true, you might get away with it
It's a risk, it's a risk yeah

Picked from a hot grove, packaged for sale
It drips down the sleeve
Gets under your nails
A loss of the senses
A chip off a tooth
The smells of the city
They ride in your suit

He says don't think don't talk
Don't think
Don't think don't talk
Don't think
Don't think don't talk
But I don't think I want to

'Cause you give me the electric twist and it kicks and it kicks like a pony
And true, you might run away with it, it's a risk it's a risk yeah
Because it kicks yeah
It really kicks yeah

And the touch of your lips it's a shock not a kiss
It's electric twist, it's electric twist

And the touch of your lips it's a shock not a kiss
It's electric twist, it's electric twist

And the touch of your lips it's a shock not a kiss
It's electric twist, it's electric twist

And the touch of your lips it's a shock not a kiss
It's electric twist, it's electric twist

He says don't think don't talk Don't think
Don't think don't talk Don't think
Don't think don't talk
But I don't think I want to

'Cause you give me the electric twist and it kicks and it kicks yeah

And true, let ya get away with it, it's a risk it's a risk yeah

You might get away with it
It's a risk yeah
But it kicks yeah
It really kicks yeah

Blow Away lyrics - A Fine Frenzy

One of us is gonna be here and
One of us is gonna be running
Off alone into the great unknown
You're not me, you're a model of freedom
All you need are your kicks when you need 'em
Come and go, caught that slow alright

With one hand off the side
We get farther away in the blink of an eye

And it's the time we waste
Swallowed into space
It's the time it takes to blow away
To blow away
To blow away

Hey, hey you, yeah you gotta be leaving,
Say what you want, what you say, say anything
No one knows just how deep it goes
We are old in your teenaged tyranny
And all you need is a hunger to feed
I've got my own secrets though, say what?

With a heart full of mess and lore
We are doomed but we wanted more

It's the ride we take
The many winged escape
It's the bough we break to blow away
To blow away
And we blow away

One of us is now retreating
You knocked me down so hard I'm seeing a thousand stars
Come out where you are
'cause I won't ever be caught crying
And I will not be taken lying down
It blows into smoke

The time we waste
Swallowed into space
It's the time it takes to blow
It's the ride we take

The many winged escape
It's the bough we break to blow away
To blow away
It's the times we say that no one's gonna take your place
It's a mistake to blow away
To blow away
We blow away

Happier lyrics - A Fine Frenzy

Quick kid quip, so harsh and cynical
Touches stricken, cold and clinical
What a transformation to behold
But I don't like this new, I want the old

It's not the words that make it final
You've said such things before to rival them
But it's how you say 'em now that's changed
Cold but sympathetic all the same

Lie to convince me that I'll be better off
So, you go on and I'll be happier, I'll be happier
You go on, yeah, you go on
You'll be gone and I'll be happier

Shoot me with your rubber bullets
Your finger's on the trigger, pull it
I know you want this suffering to end
So it is forgivable my friend

It's all to convince me that I'll be better off
So you go on and I'll be happier,
You go on and I'll be happier
You go on, yeah, you go on
You'll be gone and I'll be happier

Bo-bo-ba-do-bo
Bo-bo-ba-do-bo-da-da-da

Say what you mean, what you mean
Cause you'll be happier without me, without me, without me, oh

You won't convince me, that I'll be better off
So you go on and I'll be happier, I'll be happier
You go on, you go
You'll be gone, and I'll be gone
You go on and I'll be happier, you go on and I'll be happier
You go on, you go on, you go on and I'll go on and I'll be happier
You go on and I'll be happier, you go on and I'll be happier

You go on, and I'll be happier

Swan Song lyrics - A Fine Frenzy

Wretched, look at me, I've lost it, melting on the table
In parking lots and markets
I cant help it, I love you like a starfish loves the salty water
Like a selfish daughter

Yet I wrote the words to the swan song
The author of the wrong
And I said what I said and I meant it
But now I regret it

Foolish, how was I so careless
Pawning off my treasure, the envy of an heiress
Now my dollars are crumbled in my pocket
How can I reclaim it?
What if someone's got it?

When I wrote the words to the swan song
The author of the wrong
And I said what I said and I meant it
But now I regret it

How could the world have turned so ugly
I am dying
Could you touch me again?
Touch me again

When I wrote the words to the swan song
The author of the wrong
And I said what I said and I meant it
But now I regret it

Elements lyrics - A Fine Frenzy

You show up like a hurricane, all hungry-eyed and weather-stained
The clock forgets to tick and I the same

I died the day you disappeared, so why would you be welcome here?
Ride the wind that brought you back away

No you can't come in
No you can't come in

I cannot stop my rebel hands from pulling out the pots and pans
I left you in the cold until you shook

You're gentle now, but I recall
Both tender fire and bitter squall
A history so deep it hurts to look

No you can't come in
No you can't come in
No you can't
You can't come in

If the sea should swallow up my house
I will turn my rooftop inside out and the wind will be wailing
But I will be sailing faster

Oh the elements I do not fear but I fall apart when you appear
Cos you are the greatest
The greatest disaster

If the sea should swallow up my house
I will turn my rooftop inside out and the wind will be wailing
But I will be sailing faster

The World Without lyrics - A Fine Frenzy

It must be written that the moon elbowed the stars and said, let's do our best to make it hard for them
Your house turned into paper cranes, we watched the wind blow them away
Some sorry comfort I was then

The weight of a mountain
The skin off your knees
From climbing back to me

We can work this out
I believe, although it seems impossible

They turned our skeletons to wood,
And scattered matches underfoot
We must walk carefully in place

The circles darken round our eyes
And yet our bodies, when combined
They gleam like diamonds in cave

The weight of a mountain
The skin off your knees
From climbing back to me

We can work this out
I believe, although it seems impossible now
Keep the world without
Only the two of us count
Two voices loud
It is possible now
Though they wore us down
We'll find our way again

Heloise gave her whole heart to Pete
Now eternally sleeps by his side
Oh, go ahead, fate, oh, give us your best
What is worth living for is worth a fight
Into the night

We can work this out
I believe, although it seems impossible now
Oh without a doubt
We'll work this out
Yeah, they'll hurt us now
On my knees, it makes me want to scream and shout
Yeah, we'll work this out
Just the two of us now
Keep the world without

Bird Of The Summer lyrics - A Fine Frenzy

You came with the season
As the first swallow sang
A brown headed stranger
With a five-letter name {do, do, do, do, do, do, do}

We planted our kisses where the wild berries grow
My feet sprouted wings and I flew all the way home {do, do, do, do, do, do, do}

My cheeks red like fire engines racing
Straight to the heat of your skin
And I know the days are numbered,
Early bird of the summer
You'll fly south just as the fall begins

The leaves changed our color
And the schoolyards were filled
My coat with the patches
Barely keeps out the chill {do, do, do, do, do, do}

You sent me a postcard from a town out of state
I wish it were warmer and I hope you're the same {do, do, do, do, do, do, do}

The fields where we wandered were golden
Now only mud in my boots
And I know I should recover
You're the bird of the summer
I was wrong to try and capture you

Flight, flight
Flight, flight

I met someone walkin' in a park by the lake.
He don't fly like we did but he don't fly away. {do, do, do, do, do}

Gone is the pale hand of winter
Here is the first flush of May

And soon I will discover
Whether birds of the summer
Fly in circles or just fly away

Stood Up lyrics - A Fine Frenzy

We are not frightened anymore,
We stood up, we stood up

And there are two of us there will be more,
They'll show up, yeah they'll show up
They'll show up

Blame a change of mind
A seismic shift in times
They told us not to fight
But we'll fight it till we die

Cos' we are not frightened anymore,
We stood up, we stood up

And there are two of us there will be many more,
They'll show up, yeah they'll show up

And so they sunk every ship we sailed
But we stood up, we stood up

And they fought hard, but somewhere fighting failed
They're all shook up, they're all shook up
All shook up

Steel and concrete break
Beneath the steady waves
Of fearless hope and grace
In kindness there is strength.

Cos' we are not frightened anymore,
We stood up, we stood up

And there are two of us there will be many more,
They'll show up, yeah they'll show up

The Beacon lyrics - A Fine Frenzy

You say your time has come
You're tired of waking up
Don't be obscene, I can't conceive of
Living without you

You say you drag me down
No one should want you now

I start to cry, you kiss my eyes and say
I'm not allowed to

Burning beacon in the night
Can't feel its heat, or see its light
That single solitary guide, it must get lonely there sometimes

You were a child forgot
Lessons of love untaught
Now no embrace can quite replace
The one that never found you

I was raised tenderly
All that was taught to me
I will apply, your parents tried but they didn't know how to

Burning beacon in the night
Can't feel its heat, or see its light
That single solitary guide, it must get lonely there sometimes

Let me stand by you
The honor is mine
Let me stand by you
Loneliest light, loneliest light, loneliest light

Burning beacon in the night
Can't feel its heat, or see its light
That single solitary guide, it must get lonely there sometimes

Silent War lyrics - A Fine Frenzy

Stifling, this day is stifling.
You're sprawled out like a king
On the sheets of my queen-sized bed

And I'm too hot to lie beside,
possessed of idle mind.
this calm is a false friend.

Jealousy, I suspect jealousy.
Something is changing me
Real slow from the inside out.

It seems you mean too much to me,
Too much for comfort, see.
The cause is the cure, now.

We fought a silent war
In the hardware store and the air was thick as paint
Though I carried it on, I knew that I was wrong
But I fight when I'm afraid

And I come with guns a-blazing

Someone once (I forget who it was)
Said, "Do not think so much,
You can't hear what your heart says."

But it speaks, it tugs and puddle-leaps,
And bangs my ribs to pieces.
Thoughts are the safe bet.

We fought a silent war
In the hardware store and the air was thick as paint
Though I carried it on, I knew that I was wrong
But I fight when I'm afraid

My guns will come a-blazing,
A lesser man would be afraid

And Oh, how you raze me, oh, to the ground.
And love, oh you brought me down
with the sun of the ?? as you went out.

The cause is the cure, now.

We fought a silent war
In the hardware store and the air was thick as paint
Though I carried it on, I knew that I was wrong
But I fight when I'm afraid

With guns I come a-blazing,
A lesser man would break free.
"I'm sorry" 's all I meant to say.

Coming Around lyrics - A Fine Frenzy

Leathers, she said leathers
Cutting new cloth,
From our grandparents' patterns
We have big dreams
And big dream takers
They come in at the sun
Just to see what would happen

We're coming, we're coming around

Faster,
Moving faster
Pushing harder,
Falling forwards n backwards
Of all these converts
Engage our patterns
Folding empires
Fighting golddiggers' down

We're coming, we're coming around
We're coming, we're coming around
Yeah, we're coming, we're coming around
It's coming, it's coming around
It's coming, it's coming around

We seem to even be missing the start
No one else but you n me have a say
And we're coming, we're coming around
It's coming, it's coming around

We're coming... We're coming around
It's coming... It's coming around

One Cell In The Sea (2007)












Come On, Come Out lyrics - A Fine Frenzy

Come on, come out
The weather is warm
Come on, come out
Said come on, come on

A spot in the shade
Where oranges fall
A spot in the shade
Away from it all

Watching the sky
Watching a painting coming to life
Shifting and shaping
Staying inside
It all goes it all goes by

A blanket unfolds
A blanket tonight
The pieces of gold
They light up your eyes
Now we're alone
Now we're alive

Watching the sky
Watching the painting come to life
Shifting and shaping
Staying inside
It all goes it all goes it all goes by

Stopping the time
Rushing, waiting
Leave it behind
Shifting and shaping
Keep it inside
It all goes it all goes it all goes by
It all goes passing by
It all goes passing by

The Minnow & The Trout lyrics - A Fine Frenzy

Help me out said the minnow to the trout
I was lost and found myself swimming in your mouth
Help me chief
I've got to plans for you and me
I swear upon this riverbed
I'll help you feel young again

Not your every day circumstance
Hummingbird taking coffee with the ants

Please, I know that we're different
We were one cell in the sea in the beginning
And what we're made of was all the same once
We're not that different after all

Help me out said the eagle to the dove
I've fallen from my nest so high above
Help me fly
I am too afraid try
Now saddled with a fear of heights
I'm praying you can set me right

Not your everyday circumstance
Elephant sharing peanuts with the rats
And I said

Please, I know that we're different
We were one cell in the sea in the beginning
And what we're made of was all the same once
We're not that different after all

We are tied in history
Connected like a family

Please, I know that we're different
We were one cell in the sea in the beginning
And what we're made of was all the same once
All the same
We're not that different after all

Whisper lyrics - A Fine Frenzy

Running the race
Like a mouse in a cage
Getting nowhere but I'm trying
Forging ahead
But I'm stuck in the bed
That I made so I'm lying

But if you keep real close
Yeah, you stay real close
I will reach you

I'm down to a whisper
In a daydream on a hill
Shut down to a whisper
Can you hear me still

Eager to please,
Trying to be what they need
But I'm so very tired
I've stopped trying to find
Any peace in my mind
Because it tangles the wires

But if you keep real close
Yeah, you stay real close
I will reach you

I'm down to a whisper
In a daydream on a hill
Shut down to a whisper
Can you hear me
Can you hear me still

The sound tires on my lips
To fade away into forgetting

I'm down to a whisper
In a daydream on a hill
Shut down to a whisper
Can you hear me
Can you hear me

I'm down to a whisper
In a daydream on a hill
Shut down to a whisper
Can you hear me
Can you hear me still

You Picked Me lyrics - A Fine Frenzy

One, two, three
Counting out the signs we see
The tall buildings
Fading in the distance
Only dots on a map
Four, five, six
The two of us a perfect fit
You're all mine, all mine

And all I can say
Is you blow me away

Like an apple on a tree
Hiding out behind the leaves
I was difficult to reach
But you picked me
Like a shell upon a beach
Just another pretty piece
I was difficult to see
But you picked me
Yeah you picked me

So softly
Rain against the windows
And the strong coffee
Warming up my fingers
In this fisherman's house
You got me
Searched the sand
And climbed the tree
And brought me back down

And all I can say
Is you blow me away

Like an apple on a tree
Hiding out behind the leaves
I was difficult to reach
But you picked me
Like a shell upon a beach
Just another pretty piece
I was difficult to see
But you picked me
Yeah you picked me

Rangers lyrics - A Fine Frenzy

The paths have been crossed
The crumbs are gone and the way, and the way is lost
Melancholy phantoms eye our skins
Poison apples falling with the wind

Hear the sigh of the trees
Those who enter here never leave

And the rangers stream out of their cabins
They are the hunters
We are the rabbits
Maybe we don't want to be found
Maybe we don't want to be found

Further in and on we go
Sightless creatures tugging at our clothes
Cutting through the twilight, sword in hand
Strangers once united against the land

At the sound of the bells
they're pulling paper lanterns from their shelves

The rangers stream out of their cabins
They are the hunters and we are the rabbits
Maybe we don't want to be found
Maybe we don't want you tracking us down

The rangers stream out of their cabins
Raising their muskets
Flashing their badges
Maybe we don't want to be found
Maybe we don't want to be found

They keep hiding a quiet like
They'll keep sneaking
But they won't find us
They'll keep living a quiet life
You and I
You and I

The ranger scream out of their cabins
They are the hunters,
We are the rabbits
Maybe we don't want to be found
Maybe we don't want you tracking us down
The rangers stream out of their cabins
Raising their muskets,
Flashing their badges
Maybe we don't want to be found
Maybe we don't want to be found

Almost Lover lyrics - A Fine Frenzy

Your fingertips across my skin
The palm trees swaying in the wind
Images

You sang me Spanish lullabies
The sweetest sadness in your eyes
Clever trick

I never want to see you unhappy
I thought you'd want the same for me

Goodbye, my almost lover
Goodbye, my hopeless dream
I'm trying not to think about you
Can't you just let me be?
So long, my luckless romance
My back is turned on you
I should've known you'd bring me heartache
Almost lovers always do

We walked along a crowded street
You took my hand and danced with me
Images

And when you left you kissed my lips
You told me you'd never never forget these images, no

I never want to see you unhappy
I thought you'd want the same for me

Goodbye, my almost lover
Goodbye, my hopeless dream
I'm trying not to think about you
Can't you just let me be?
So long, my luckless romance
My back is turned on you
I should've known you'd bring me heartache
Almost lovers always do

I cannot go to the ocean
I cannot drive the streets at night
I cannot wake up in the morning
Without you on my mind
So now you're gone and I'm haunted
And I bet you are just fine
Did I make it that easy
To walk right in and out of my life?

Goodbye, my almost lover
Goodbye, my hopeless dream
I'm trying not to think about you
Can't you just let me be?
So long, my luckless romance
My back is turned on you
I should've known you'd bring me heartache
Almost lovers always do

Think Of You lyrics - A Fine Frenzy

It's one hundred and nine degrees in this crowded room
No room to breathe with walls as cold as a gallery
This is no place for me
Such hard faces set in smoke
The smell lingers in my clothes
It's a bad night to be alone
But that's the way it goes

And I think of you whenever life gets me down
I think of you whenever you're not around
And you rest your bones
Somewhere far from my own
Yeah, but you still pull me home

I thought I had it figured out in a brand new life
With a great big house
And green initials on the towels
I should be happy now
Well, you got yourself a family
And you planted roots down by the sea
I saw you once on the street
You didn't notice me

But I think of you whenever life gets me down
I think of you whenever you're not around
You rest your bones
Somewhere far from my own
Yeah, but you still pull me home

Just to put your mind at ease
You don't owe me anything
You paid me well in memories

And I think of you whenever life gets me down
I think of you whenever you're not around
And you rest your bones
Somewhere far from my own
Yeah, but you still pull me home
You still pull me home
You still pull me home

Ashes And Wine lyrics - A Fine Frenzy

Don't know what to do anymore
I've lost the only love worth fighting for
I'll drown in my tear storming sea,
That would show you, that would make you hurt like me

All the same
I don't want mud-slinging games
It's just a shame
To let you walk away

Is there a chance?
A fragment of light at the end of the tunnel?
A reason to fight?
Is there a chance you may change your mind?
Or are we ashes and wine?

Don't know if our fate's already sealed
This day's a spinning circus on a wheel
And I'm ill with the thought of your kiss
Coffee-laced, intoxicating on her lips

Shut it out
I've got no claim on you now
I'm not allowed to wear your freedom down

No

Is there a chance?
A fragment of light at the end of the tunnel?
A reason to fight?
Is there a chance you may change your mind?
Or are we ashes and wine?

I'll tear myself away
That is what you need
There is nothing left to say
But

Is there a chance?
A fragment of light at the end of the tunnel?
A reason to fight?
Is there a chance you may change your mind?
Or are we ashes and wine?
Reduced to ashes and wine?
Or are we ashes?

Liar, Liar lyrics - A Fine Frenzy

Liar, liar
You're such a great big liar
With the tallest tales that I have ever heard
Fire, fire
You set my soul on fire
Laughing in the corner as it burns
Right between the ribs is sinking in

Oh, the sirens sing so sweet and watched the sailors go down
Oh, oh, you talk to me in siren song
Yeah, anyone would drown
Anyone would drown

Sick and tired of this mad desire
Fluttering aside me like a hawk
Wire wire
Got my hands on wires
Will heaven help you when I get them out?

Right between the ribs
You'll feel it then

The sirens sang so sweet and watched the sailors go down
Oh, oh, you talk to me in siren song
Yeah, anyone would drown
Anyone would drown

All the ships go down
Following the sound
All the ships go down

Oh oh the siren sang so sweet and watched the sailors go down
Oh oh oh, you talk to me in siren song
Yeah, anyone would drown

Last Of Days lyrics - A Fine Frenzy

Something causing fear to fly
Rising like a dark night
In silence
Traveling like a broken boat
Heading for the sky
And I'm an island

I watched you disappear into the clouds
Swept away into another town

The world carries on without you
But nothing remains the same
I'll be lost without you
Until the last of days

The sun is in the east,
Rising for the beasts
And the beauties
I wish that I could tear it down,
Plant it in the ground to warm your face

I built myself a castle on the beach
Watching as it slid into the sea

The world carries on without you
But nothing remains the same
I'll be lost without you
Until the last of days
Until the last of days

Through walls and harvest moons
I will fight for you

The world carries on without you
But nothing remains the same
I'll be lost without you
Until the last of days
Until the last of days

Lifesize lyrics - A Fine Frenzy

We stood so tall we caught a plane
by the wing and held it
Until we found it a place to land
We layed across the ocean wide
Bridged the gap in record time
The people traveled across and kissed our hands

All for love we become

Larger than lifesize, wondersome
Great in the eyes of someone
Larger than lifesize we become
Great in the eyes of someone

We smiled so bright the sun went down
Rose above the maddening crowd
We lit the streets with the sweetest glow
We held the globe and made it turn
Wandered through the universe
The men of science observed through telescopes

All for love, we become

Larger than lifesize, wondersome
Great in the eyes of someone
Larger than lifesize we become,
Great in the eyes of someone

Larger than lifesize we become
Larger than lifesize we become
Great in the eyes of someone

Near To You lyrics - A Fine Frenzy

He and I had something beautiful
But so dysfunctional
It couldn't last
I loved him so
But I let him go
'Cause I knew he'd never love me back

Such pain as this
Shouldn't have to be experienced
I'm still reeling from the loss
Still a little bit delirious

Near to you, I am healing
But it's taking so long
'Cause though he's gone
And you are wonderful
It's hard to move on
Yet, I'm better near to you

Well, you and I have something different
And I'm enjoying it cautiously
I'm battle scarred
I-I am a-working oh so hard
To get back to who I used to be

He's disappearing
Fading steadily
And I'm so close to being yours
Won't you stay with me
Please

'Cause near to you I am healing
But it's taking so long
'Cause though he's gone
And you are wonderful
It's hard to move on
Yet, I'm better near to you
Yet, I'm better near to you

I only know that I am
Better where you are
I only know that I am
Better where you are
I only know that I belong
Where you are

Near to you I am healing
But it's taking so long
Though he's gone
And you are wonderful
It's hard to move on

Near to you I am healing
But it's taking so long
'Cause though he's gone
And you are wonderful
It's hard to move on
Yet, I'm better near to you

Yet, I'm better near to you

Hope For The Hopeless lyrics - A Fine Frenzy

Stitch in your knitted brow
And you don't know how
You're gonna get it out
Crushed under heavy chest
Trying to catch your breath
But it always beats you by a step, all right now

Making the best of it
Playing the hand you get
You're not alone in this

There's hope for the hopeless
There's hope for the hopeless
There's hope

Cold in a summer breeze
Yeah, you're shivering
On your bended knee
Still, when your heart is sore
And the heavens pour
Like a willow bending with the storm, you'll make it

Running against the wind
Playing the cards you get
Something is bound to give

There's hope for the hopeless
There's hope for the hopeless
There's hope
There's hope
There's hope

There's hope

Borrowed Time lyrics - A Fine Frenzy

Thick as thieves the last of leaves
In the winter sun
Holding fast this freezing branch
Is home to us

Step, step right over the line
And onto borrowed time
When it's life, not waiting to die
Waiting to divide to divide

Counting stars and passing cars
On the interstate
The end is near I feel it dear,
But I am not afraid

Step, step right over the line
And onto borrowed time
When it's life, not waiting to die
Waiting to divide to divide

But you say you're getting tired
You're tired and so am I
When you follow from behind

Step, step right over the line
And onto borrowed time
When it's life, not waiting to die
Waiting to divide to divide

But you say you're getting tired
You're tired and so am I
When you follow from behind

Devil's Trade lyrics - A Fine Frenzy

Under the night gown
And over the skin
Turn all the lights out
And let us begin

Gather this fallen
Bird to your breast
She'll sing you a song
If you take her to bed

Oooh, the Devil's Trick
Freedom for a taste
The apple had the price of a snake
And I will pay

As soft as a door mouse
Untangle our limbs
A kiss on the knee
And now you're, gone with the wind

Everything's different
And I don't belong
I'm as cold as a kitchen
In the breaking of dawn

And though it hurts
To breath
I die before I'd leave

Oooh, the Devil's Trick
Freedom for a taste
The apple had the price of a snake
And I will pay

Lost Things (Sleepwalking) lyrics - A Fine Frenzy

Houses to houses
Sinks with rolls and floors
Windows to hallways
Closed and open doors

Softly
They creep softly
Plus we
Have now lost thee

Cover your eyes with the paper clothes
That you stole from paper sheep.
Tracing their jumps on the paper sky
Where the fallen paper sleep

Falling
We're always falling
Calling
Hey come back lost things

Aaah, oh my God
Aaah, oh my God

Summer was once where
the widest winter breathes
I know its somewhere
and right behind our teeth

Come and
Come and called it
Caught it
And then we lost it

Love Sick lyrics - A Fine Frenzy

Sweet as a fox
Calm in a crowd
Good with a spotlight
She is out, out to be yours
I am a detail
Minor detail, so it seems
Planting the seeds of doubt in your mind
She's playing for keeps, but so am I
I'm fighting for keeping us together

I need to believe you
Love sick, only you can fix it
I need you
I need you to stay
Yeah, yeah

You say she's a friend
No friend of mine
I've never been called the jealous kind
But I've got a cause
Cause I am a detail
Minor detail, oh no

And you are the prize
She's aiming to win
I'm failing to see where I fit in
Cause there isn't room
For three in two now is there
Darling, listen

I need to believe you
Love sick only you can fix it
I need you
I need you to stay
The panic's distracted
Love sick only you can fix it
I need you
I need you to stay
Yeah, yeah

Bang bang bang bang
And walls are falling, falling, falling
Bang bang b-bang to the dusty road
Bang bang bang bang
And she keeps on calling, calling, calling
Bang bang bang
Headaches, make her go

Cause I need to believe you
Love sick, only you can fix it
I need you
I need you to stay
Yeah, yeah
The panic's distracted
Love sick, only you can fix it
I need you, I need you to stay
Yeah, yeah

The Well lyrics - A Fine Frenzy

Standing still I'm gonna stand still, stiller than the stones
You know I will, oh you can test my will, it won't go breaking with my bones
Take a picture, take a lasting look of the girl you once adored
Hide it somewhere in your secret book, think of me no more

Following my wish into the well, down into your deepest dark I fell
Drowning with your kisses in the well
I look to you for saving but you're saving someone else

Go on home, won't you go home, go where you belong
Left alone I'm better left alone, the one you didn't want
Standing still I'm gonna stand still, stiller than the stones
You know I will, oh you can test my will, it won't go breaking with my bones

Following my wish into the well, down into your deepest dark I fell
Drowning with your kisses in the well
I look to you for saving but you're saving someone else

No one knows. No one knows

Following my wish into the well, down into your deepest dark I fell
Drowning with your kisses in the well
I look to you for saving but you're saving someone else

Fever lyrics - A Fine Frenzy

[from "Dan in Real Life" soundtrack]

Never know how much I love you
Never know how much I care
When you put your arms around me
I get a fever that's so hard to bear

You give me fever, when you kiss me
Fever when you hold me tight
Fever, in the the morning
Fever all through the night

Sun lights up the daytime
The moon lights up the night
I light up when you call my name
And you know I'm gonna treat you right

You give me fever, when you kiss me
Fever when you hold me tight
Fever, in the the morning
Fever all through the night

Everybody's got the fever
That is something you all know
Fever isn't such a new thing
Fever started long ago

Romeo loved Juliet
Juliet she felt the same
When he put his arms around her
He said "Julie baby you're my flame"

Thou givest fever, when we kisseth
Fever with thy flaming youth
Fever, I'm afire
Fever yea I burn forsooth

Captain Smith and Pocahontas
Had a very mad affair
When her Daddy tried to kill him
She said "Daddy-O don't you dare"

You give me fever, with his kisses
Fever when he holds me tight
Fever, I'm his Misses
Oh daddy won't you treat him right

Now you've listened to my story
Here's the point I have made
Chicks were born to give you fever
Be it Fahrenheit or Centigrade

They give you fever, when you kiss them
Fever if you live and learn
Fever, till you sizzle
What a lovely way to burn
What a lovely way to burn
What a lovely way to burn
What a lovely way to burn
