The Naked And Famous - Punching In A Dream

All the lights go down
As I crawl into the spaces
Fight, flight, or the screams
Life tearing at the seams

Wait
I don't ever wanna be here
Like punching in a dream
Breathing life into my nightmare

If it falls apart
I will surely wake it
Bright lights turn me green
This is worse than it seems

Wait
I don't ever wanna be here
Like punching in a dream
Breathing life into my nightmare

They'll get through, they'll get you
In the place that you fear it the most
In the corner, where it's warmer
In the face that you wish was a ghost

Wait
I don't ever wanna be here
Like punching in a dream
Breathing life into my nightmare

Wait
I don't ever wanna be here
Like punching in a dream
Breathing life into my nightmare

The Naked And Famous - Young Blood

We're only young and naive still
We require certain skills
The mood it changes like the wind
Hard to control when it begins

The bittersweet between my teeth
Trying to find the in-betweens
Fall back in love eventually
Yeah yeah yeah yeah

Can't help myself but count the flaws
Claw my way out through these walls
One temporary escape
Feel it start to permeate

We lie beneath the stars at night
Our hands gripping each other tight
You keep my secrets hope to die
Promises, swear them to the sky

The bittersweet between my teeth
Trying to find the in-betweens
Fall back in love eventually
Yeah yeah yeah yeah

As it withers
Brittle it shakes
Can you whisper
As it crumbles and breaks
As you shiver
Count up all your mistakes
Pair of forgivers
Let go before it's too late
Can you whisper
Can you whisper
Can you whisper
Can you whisper

The bittersweet between my teeth
Trying to find the in-betweens
Fall back in love eventually
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
The bittersweet between my teeth
Trying to find the in-betweens
Fall back in love eventually
Yeah yeah yeah yeah

The Naked And Famous - Girls Like You

Run, whirlwind, run
Further and further away
Into the sun
In twenty minutes
Everyone will remember you when you're gone
And your heart is a stone
Buried underneath your pretty clothes

Don't you know people write songs about girls like you?

What will you do when something stops you?
What will you say to the world?
What will you be when it all comes crashing down on you little girl?
What would you do if you lost your beauty?
How would you deal with the light?
How would you feel if nobody chased you?
What if it happened tonight?

How would you cope if the world decided to make you suffer for all that you were?
How could you dance if no one was watching and you couldn't even get off the floor?
What would you do if you couldn't even feel, not even pitiful pain?
How would you deal with the empty decisions eating away at the days?

Don't you know people write songs about girls like you?

The Naked And Famous - Frayed

All of my dreams, tear at the seams
Frayed, all over the place
Thought it was good, everything where it should
Be, around me

All that depends, on where it ends
It ends,
Teacher pretend or maybe not comprehend
Procrastination baby, I had it tainted lately

Cut it up
It starts, you say its useless
Just stick on the favours with different uses
Here comes the sun, a lore excuses
Its easier to stay and no one refuses.
Cut it up
It starts, you say its useless
Just stick on the favours with different uses
Here comes the sun, more excuses
Where do you think I got these bruises.

It's better to stay
Make it end
Help me sink into this skin
I've got things to feel, to reimburse yeah
I'm sick I'm alone and it's getting worse.

The Naked And Famous - Spank

I don’t remember the first time
But I think I survived
Probably better not to try to recall cause it feeds it, yea it keeps it alive
There are specific things
That I have to do
Day to day just to keep it at bay
You wouldn’t believe if you knew

Oh no, this isn’t real

Here’s a little secret
Here’s the best part
This is gonna take me right back to the start
If I can’t hear it
If it’s out of mind
Wait until it settles
Comes round a second time

I don’t remember the first time
But I think I survived
Probably better not to try to recall cause it feeds it, yea it keeps it alive

Oh no, this isn’t real

Here’s a little secret
Here’s the best part
This is gonna take me right back to the start
If I can’t hear it
If it’s out of mind
Wait until it settles
Comes round a second time

I can feel it loom up into my head
It is in the room
Panicking in bed
I feel it coming on
Taking over view
Oh please not tonight
There’s nothing I can do
This is bigger than me
This is in my fear

This is pitiful
I just disappear
Swells up all around me
Swallowed up inside
Sell my senses if it would make this subside
I can barely handle
I can pass the time
Staring through the curtains up into the sky
Where there is no depth perception
Keep preoccupied: self deception

Nobody recognises
It doesn’t have a name
My brother is infected; he’s acting just the same
Screaming like a siren, up and down the hall
He just wants to stop it
He wants to end it all
I am just a child
I have nothing more than the basic function I am running from
I curl up and wallow
My distortion
Everything is disproportion

Suddenly I wake
All is back again
Everything is closer
Morning is the same
And I can’t hear it; it’s way out of mind
I will just forget this till the next time
