The other side of the door
Where did the ground go?
Tall buildings no floors
They will see it if I fall
(Don’t fall)
(Don’t fall)
(Don’t fall)
(Don’t fall)
(Don’t fall)
(Don’t fall)
(Don’t fall)
(Don’t fall)
Walking on a tightrope
I have left my shoes at home
Barefoot, naked, fingers crossed
If I make it, take it,
Leave them shocked.

Welcome to the moon
it’s not worth what you’re used to
but I think you like it
welcome to the moon
oh you’re leaving so soon?
I hope you make it back safe
We can’t see the sun
we can’t see the sun
and I think you’ll like it
I want you even more
I want you even more
(Our calls are boundless and you’re far away)
I want you even more
(Our calls are boundless and you’re far away)
We might be confused,
And we don’t know where to,
But let’s take a moonwalk
You don’t have to be afraid
I’ll hold you all the way
As we leave for takeoff
We can see the sun
We can see the sun (and I think you’ll like it)
I want you even more
I want you even more
(Our calls are boundless and you’re far away)
I want you even more
(Our calls are boundless and you’re far away)
We can see the sun
We can see the sun (We can see the sun)
We can see the sun (We can see the sun)
We can see the sun

UFO

I’ll give you something you can keep in mind
It’s not a shadow, not a firefly
I’ve told you once or maybe twice before
To board up your windows and lock all your doors
But I guess you never come down
You never go out
Do you even wanna be found?
Not this time?
Can you see me?
Cause I’m climbing
When you’re ready
Will you let me know?
Will you see me?
Will you try me?
In the backseat
Of your U.F.O
I know of things that I can't say out loud
I know I’m headless in a sleeping crowd
They haven’t seen the things you leave behind
It's hard convincing someone that they’re blind
Some people drag me to this sterile house
They try to throw me in this big white gown
And if they tell me that I’m out of line
I'll show them something that’ll blow their minds
But I guess you never come down
You never go out
Do you even wanna be found?
Not this time?
Can you see me?
Cause I’m climbing
When you’re ready
Will you let me know?
Will you see me?
Will you try me?
In the backseat
Of your U.F.O
Can you see me?
Cause I’m climbing
When you’re ready
Will you let me know?
Will you see me?
Will you try me?
In the backseat
Of your U.F.O
(See me, climbing
Ready, let me know
See me, try me
Backseat, U.F.O)
Meet me in the fields
(See me, climbing)
Meet me in the fields
(Ready, let me know)
Meet me in the fields
(See me, try me)
Prove me that you’re real!
(Backseat, U.F.O)

A Show of Hands

It’s getting late,
They’re in a haze
He doesn’t dance
Can’t feel his face
And I, get that
That man at the door
He’s such a bore
She’s had enough, yet
She wants more
And I get that
And I
I said please don’t go
Don’t go home
I’m still here don’t leave me alone
A show of hands
Let’s stop the dance
Put on your coats and
Get in your cabs
But I, won’t go
Man at the bar
Takes out the trash
He says “we’re closed, so empty your glass”
But I, won’t go
And I
I said please don’t go
Don’t go home
I’m still here don’t leave me alone
I’m still here, it’s time to go home

His Brother

You threw me around
I kept polishing your crown
You just pleased the crowd
But tell me who’s laughing now
I guess I wanna believe
The things you said to me
A lie, a mess, a girl, no dress
A twisted game of chess
Your brother's sweet
With bigger shoes
It's safe to say
You never spoke the truth
How did I end up with
How didI end up with
You say that you’re fine
Yet I know I cross your mind
Don’t hold on too tight
I heard you went home last night
I don’t wanna believe
The things you said to me
A lie, a mess, a girl, no dress
A twisted game of chess
Your brother's sweet
With bigger shoes
It's safe to say
You never spoke the truth
How did I end up with
How did I end up with

Crawl

Glasses off, can’t see my eyes
Trembling hands resting on my thighs
Oh, I miss you.
Leaves turn red as you kiss my face,
Things are going great, I make one mistake,
It makes me want to kick you. When I would rather kiss you.
Your name never tasted so bad, I know you’re insecure about that
I can’t take me low, only want me high
Just a little boy in a man’s disguise
And that’s an issue
It’s pathetic that I miss you
I crawl,
Sideways,
For I don’t know,
What I did for your name to taste so bad,
I know you’re insecure about that.
If caring is too much that’s sad.
A little too surreal to last.
Time has passed, been a month or two
Nothing’s quite the same since I left the room I wouldn’t recognize.
Remind me what it looks like.
I don’t want to say it but I guess it’s true.
Every Oslo park reminds me of you,
And that’s an issue
It’s pathetic that I miss you
I crawl,
Sideways,
For I don’t know
What I did for your name to taste so bad,
I know you’re insecure about that.
If caring is too much that’s sad.
A little too surreal to last.

Ballerina (Norah)
02:49

She speaks too loudly
of things she doesn’t know of
It’s all a matter of time before
someone breaks her nose
People say she has no sensibility
It’s all a matter of time before
she takes a toll and
breaks the part she’s played before
Norah you’re a ballerina
The most awkward one I’ve ever seen, uh
You fall on your face
yet you blow me away
I could watch you dance all day
She might be loud but
I hope she knows
I want to hear her voice when
She’s not around
From up above she might seem cold
But I assure you that I have
seen her break her mold
and she can be quite vulnerable
Norah you’re a ballerina
The most awkward one I’ve ever seen, uh
You fall on your face
yet you blow me away
I could watch you dance all day
Norah you’re a ballerina
The most awkward one I’ve ever seen, uh
You fall on your face
yet you blow me away
I could watch you dance all day
I could watch you dance all day
I could watch you dance all day

I know your bruise hurts,
It will hurt harder,
All of your dreams are left at the altar
And you’ll find a home where you feel less alone
Bruised skin, how have you been?
Mama said to be home before the sun goes down again
Everything was easier back then,
Or so they say time and time again.
Ah
I know your bruise hurts,
It will hurt harder,
All of your dreams are left at the altar
And you’ll find a home where you feel less alone
Soft chin covered in mud,
You keep messing things up
And all the tears on your cheek will keep on falling in your lap again
And all the secrets you keep will keep on running in your head again
I know your bruise hurts,
It will hurt harder,
All of your dreams are left at the altar
And you’ll find a home where you feel less alone
Ah
I know your bruise hurts,
It will hurt harder,
All of your dreams are left at the altar
And you’ll find a home where you feel less alone
Ah

The Credits

Don’t say it’s all bad luck
Don’t say it’s just not enough
Don’t tell me I lost my touch
And don’t make me feel all grown-up
So start tripping around slip in to your best dress,
sneak out the back just don’t get found,
get out of town,
don’t you dare to turn around
it was all, all for nothing
It was all a waste of time
I’d say it’s not yours to keep
But our ways collide when I sleep
While your whispers keep me awake
Well I say I’m not yours to take
So start tripping around slip in to your best dress,
sneak out the back just don’t get found,
get out of town,
don’t you dare to turn around
it was all, all for nothing
It was all a waste of time
It was all, all for nothing
It was all a waste of time

Certain things are unspoken,
Oh, the things I would do.
Kept the seconds from passing,
I'd surrender to you.
Don't be shy.
Don't be shy.
(Hey, hey)
Hey, hey!
I want you.
Hey, hey!
Feeling stuck in a ruse.
Hey, hey!
Oh, the things I would do.
Hey, hey!
I know you're picking up clues.
We've been playing for hours,
I keep placing my bets.
Put your cards on the table,
before we end up in debt.
Don't be shy.
Don't be shy.
(Hey, hey)
Hey, hey!
I want you.
Hey, hey!
Feeling stuck in a ruse.
Hey, hey!
Oh, the things I would do.
Hey, hey!
I know you're picking up clues.
So if you let your guard down,
Oh, the things I would do.
Kept the seconds from passing,
I'd surrender to you.
Don't be shy.
Don't be shy.
Hey, hey!
Me and you.
Hey, hey!
Me and you.
Hey, hey!
Me and you.
Hey, hey!
Me and you.
