The Naked And Famous - Coming Back To Me

I buried the idea of love
It buried me and left me in the dust
Sometimes I don't feel good enough
And "good enough" would barely make it good for us

I'm lost in the back of my mind (Back of my mind, back of my mind)
I'm lost in the back of my mind (Back of my mind, back of my mind)
I don't wanna lose it this time (Lose it this time, lose it this time)
I'm lost in the back of my mind (Back of my mind, back of my mind)

Everything I've loved
Everything I've lost
Is coming back to me
Coming back to me
Coming back to me
Coming back

You were like a holy light
Tender as a quiet sunrise
I recall those sleepy eyes
They told me not to worry
We would be alright

I'm lost in the back of my mind (Back of my mind, back of my mind)
I'm lost in the back of my mind (Back of my mind, back of my mind)
I don't wanna lose it this time (Lose it this time, lose it this time)
I'm lost in the back of my mind (Back of my mind, back of my mind)

Everything I've loved
Everything I've lost
Is coming back to me
Coming back to me
Coming back to me

Everything I've loved
Everything I've lost
Everything I was
Is coming back to me
Coming back to me

Everything I've loved
Everything I've lost
Everything I was
Is coming back to me
Coming back to me
Coming back to me
Coming back

Coming back to me
Coming back to me
Coming back to me
Coming back

Coming back to me
Coming back to me
Coming back to me
Coming back

The Naked And Famous - Well-Rehearsed

Nothing new
This love, so well-rehearsed
Future proof
Emptily we nurse
Back to poor health
This love, so well-rehearsed
If we dress it down
We can make it work

Call the doctor there must be something we can do
Find a cause, patch it up, and we'll make do
In exchange for a life a little closer to truth

All I know
Disappears like lightning
When there's nowhere to go
(Only one way to learn)
What if I let go lightly?

This bad form not so easily reversed
Picture perfect
This love so well-rehearsed
Just practice, practice, and practice
Muscle memory
But we're faithful and engineered to bleed

We are more than well convinced of its worth
And we're doubling down just to show that it works
If it hurts it must be real
If it hurts it must be real

All I know
Disappears like lightning
When there's nowhere to go
(Only one way to learn)
What if I let go lightly?

All I know
Disappears like lightning
When there's nowhere to go
(Only one way to learn)
It's a little frightening

All I know
Disappears like lightning
When there's nowhere to go
(Only one way to learn)
What if I let go lightly?

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 - Easy

All is fair
In love and poor
Decisions that get made for the ones we adore
And love it's not
One temporary escape
I can't do this anymore, I can't carry the weight

I have everything I need
But I don't need everything I have

It's not personal
It's just everything you make me feel
It's not personal
Every time you leave I have to heal

Honey, I don't know how to make leaving easy
For you or me

Love it's not a phase
It's a permanent state
We're dramatically static when I consider the race...
To get my head to a positive place
While you're saying that it's fucked before we're out of the gate

I have everything I need
But I don't need everything I have

It's not personal
It's just everything you make me feel
It's not personal
Every time you leave I have to heal

Honey, I don't know how to make leaving easy
For you or me
Leaving easy
On you or me

Oh it's driving me insane
Doing the same thing over and over again
And nothing changes
Nothing changes

Honey, I don't know how to make leaving easy
For you or me
Leaving easy
On you or me

The Naked And Famous - Rotten

Just because you've gotten

Yourself into a hole

There's no need to go ahead tossing it

Because you lost control

I wouldn't do any better

You should surely know

Given the choice to risk it all

As we're breaking at the bones

As we're breaking at the bones

I will forgive your rotten

Needs before I go

Your trails of debt and soaking wet cotton

It's a pain that you'll never know

I will forgive your rotten

Needs before I go

Your trails of debt and soaking wet cotton

It's a pain that you'll never know

We don't have to be modern

The honesty you've shown

The shame we've spread

The truth, it's coming

By circumstance alone

There's no need to soften

I'll keep your lovely note

And let go of all these decisions

Remember what you know

You will never be alone

I will forgive your rotten

Needs before I go

Your trails of debt and soaking wet cotton

It's a pain that you'll never know

I will forgive your rotten

Needs before I go

Your trails of debt and soaking wet cotton

It's a pain that you'll never know

Pain that you'll never know

It's a pain that you'll never know

And I'll love you through all the pain

I can love you through your heartache

You tend to be gentle no need to explain

I will forgive your rotten

Needs before I go

Your trails of debt and soaking wet cotton

It's a pain that you'll never know...

The Naked And Famous - Backslide

Best of luck don't run amok
We all get tongue tied
Keep your chin up don't get accustomed
You're allowed to backslide

The one and only God is slowly here on
The other side of love
Teenage story in it's glory
God it's never quite enough

My sun dried baby
Permanently limp
Quiet restraint takes such accomplishment
This insight fading crutch analogy
Quiet restraint takes all the best in me

And you can tell them you're the girl
Who sold her magic for the world
One day babe you'll be mine
And I'll be hers and we'll be fine

And I will turn those screams to rhymes
And I'll be cashing in each time

My sun dried baby
Permanently limp
Quiet restraint takes such accomplishment
This insight fading crutch analogy
Quiet restraint takes all the best in me

Who's to say that you won't find love again
Who's to say that you won't find love
Who's to say that you won't find love if I cut off my hands
And make you clean it up

Who's to say that you won't find love again
Who's to say that you won't find love
Who's to say that you won't find love if I cut off my hands
And make you clean it up

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 - Higher

Higher, high..

Like we understood
Made with adrenaline
Seeping out through the skin
Like only lovers could
Here's where we begin
Time is the medicine
To heal these needs
That only raise our voices

Higher, higher
Tonight we raise the dead
Tonight we bury this in fire, fire
Under the shape of years
And the weight that brought us here

But we can separate
To form these hearts in stone
Rewrite this pain we own
Caught here in the wake
Nothing but genuine
Built on a skeleton
Of fractured parts
That only raise our voices

Higher, higher
Tonight we raise the dead
Tonight we bury this in fire, fire
Under the shape of years
And the weight that brought us here

Better believe the sea of changes
And put these battered bones to rest
Nothing invisible or nameless
Leave no reason to confess

Higher, higher
Tonight we raise the dead
Tonight we bury this in fire, fire
Under the shape of years
And the weight...
Higher, higher (Higher, higher, higher)
Tonight we raise the dead
Tonight we bury this in fire, fire
Under the shape of years
And the weight that brought us here

Better believe the sea of changes
And put these battered bones to rest
Nothing invisible or nameless
Leave no reason to confess
And raise our voices
Higher, higher

The Naked And Famous - The Runners

High just like the runners
We survived under crystal skies
Silver tides, whipping winds and shore lines
Grows just like a grape vine
We align weather-beaten spines
Settle scores, we just want to be adored

I am still clinging to
These signs that I hope to find
A heart no home can hold
The hole we left behind
I feel your body right here
It takes on any shape
This place that made me run
And gave me every reason to

Stay
In the rain
In the rain
Stay
In the rain
In the rain

Caught in the reminder
Will I sleep? Will I beg for peace?
Leave the reckless hearts (leave the reckless hearts)
And find the little spark (and find the little spark)
To lead you through the dark
When you fall apart

My ears are ringing to these
Summers not quite defined
A heart no home can hold
The hole we left behind
I feel your body right here
It takes on any shape
This place that made me run
And gave me every reason to

Stay
In the rain
In the rain
Stay
In the rain
In the rain

My ears are ringing to these
Summers not quite defined
A heart no home can hold
The hole we left behind
I feel your body right here
It takes on any shape
This place that made me run
And gave me every reason to

Stay
In the rain
In the rain
Stay
In the rain
In the rain

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
