Eat, Sleep, Repeat lyrics - Copeland

It occurred to me at once
That love could be a great illusion
That makes fools of brilliant thinkers everyday
And turns hearts of stone and steel
To a place where they would feel
Like they are falling, falling quickly in its way
Falling, falling quickly in its way

Is it any surprise that you feel so overrun?
And all this time you had no one to tell you how to love
And do you thinks it's unwise to go and break yourself on this one?
And all this time you didn't know love (didn't know love)
You didn't know love (didn't know love)
You didn't know love (didn't know love)
You didn't know love...

It occurred to me at once
That love gets everything it asks for
Like a young girl picking flowers in the lawn
She gets every kiss and tear
She gets every smile and fear, but still
She never finds the last of them is gone, oh
She never finds the last of them is gone

Is it any surprise that you feel so overrun?
And all this time you had no one to tell you how to love
And do you think it's unwise to go and break yourself on this one?
And all this time you didn't know love (didn't know love)
You didn't know love (didn't know love)
You didn't know love (didn't know love)
You didn't know love...

Is it any surprise that you feel so overrun?
And all this time you had no one to tell you how to love
And do you think it's unwise to go and break yourself on this one?
And all this time you didn't know love (didn't know love)
You didn't know love (didn't know love)
You didn't know love (didn't know love)

Is it any surprise that you feel so overrun?
And all this time you had no one to tell you how to love
And do you think it's unwise to go and break yourself on this one?
And all this time you didn't know love (didn't know love)
You didn't know love (didn't know love)
You didn't know love (didn't know love)
You didn't know love...

Control Freak lyrics - Copeland

You lose control when you hold too tight,
And turn your head long enough to let it bite.
'Cause faith left me staring at the ceiling through the night.
It's freaking me out.

And when I fell asleep, it plagued my dreams,
And 30 bits of glass had become my teeth.
They were breaking each and every time I tried to speak.
It's freaking me out.

You're freaking me out,
You're freaking me out.
And I could run like a coward for the door,
But I'll never get out.
You're freaking me out.

You lose your mind if you lose control.
It makes you feel ashamed for the hearts you stole.
And now your own heart's scared of an attack,
'Cause you can't give them back.
You're stressing me out when you prove me wrong,
You're wearing me out 'cause I've slept so long.

You're freaking me out,
You're freaking me out.
And I could run like a coward for the door,
But I'll never get out.
You're freaking me out.

Threw it all away,
I threw it all
And I threw it all away,
And the best part is not knowing just what I threw away.
I threw it all away.

You're freaking me out,
You're freaking me out.
And I could run like a coward for the door,
But I'll never get out.
You're freaking me out.

You're freaking me out,
You're freaking me out.
But I keep running right back around for more,
'Cause I'm in love with my doubt.
It's freaking me out.

Careful Now lyrics - Copeland

Oh, maybe you should make a list for me
Of everything important in this world
In a note of urgency
'Cause I don't know how to feel

Maybe you should stay a mystery
And I know you as well as anyone else
And you will appear the same to me
'Cause I don't know how to feel

Ooooh, ooooh...

Careful now, you'll hurt yourself
Careful now, you'll hurt, you'll hurt someone else

Oh, maybe you should make a list of me
Of everything important in this world
In a note of urgency
'Cause I don't know how to feel

I threw everything out that doesn't make sense
To find a thousand more things that don't make sense
And I can't help but get lost in a fault like this
When I don't know how to hide myself in open air
Where I'm all alone, alone, alone

Careful now, you'll hurt yourself
Careful now, you'll hurt, you'll hurt someone
Careful now, you'll hurt yourself
Careful now, you'll hurt, you'll hurt someone else

Ooooh, ooooh....

Careful now, you'll hurt yourself
Careful now, you'll hurt, you'll hurt someone
Careful now, you'll hurt yourself
Careful now, you'll hurt, you'll hurt someone else

Love Affair lyrics - Copeland

Fell past a cheekbone hill
To a piece of her floor.
The hope of the world
In an awkward spill.

Oh she'd lie on her bed
And stare into harsh white light.
And think that her heart's not right.

'Cause love took her hand like a thief,
took her heart like a robber
and the feelings that scare her
become her relief.

Just let me run where I want to run
Just let me love who I want.
Just let me run where I want to run
Just let me love who I want.

In a flash a heart is slain.
You have to ask in all this pain
Was your heart too soft?
Was your love in vain?

Was your kiss too weak?
Were your eyes too tight?
And much too young to be in love.
Much too young to be in love.

Just let me run where I want to run.
Just let me love who I want.
Just let me run where I want to run.
Just let me love who I want.
Just let me run where I want to run.
Just let me love who I want.

There are no rules for this love.
Just keep your head and don't give up.
Like all the fools who play it smart.
Lose your head just for your heart
Just for your heart...

I'm Safer On An Airplane lyrics - Copeland

It happened then, it happens now
They let you in, they let you down
And it feels like we can't get out
And it feels like hell

I think I'm safer in an airplane
I think I'm safer with my lungs full of smoke
I think I'm safer on the jetway
Than a world without hope

The day came in, the day went out
And not a bit of peace was spoken about
And it feels like a suicidal world
And it feels like hell

I think I'm safer in an airplane
I think I'm safer if I run through the street
I think I'm safer on the jetway
Than a world without peace

Oh, what arms will stretch out when they've had enough?
Oh, when they are tired of holding up us...

I think I'm safer on an airplane
(I think I'm safer on an airplane)
I think I'm safer in the sky up above
I think I'm safer on the jetway
Than a world without...

I think I'm safer on an airplane
(I think I'm safer on an airplane)
I think I'm safer in the sky up above
I think I'm safer on the jetway
Than a world without love

By My Side lyrics - Copeland

It's takin' time, all this fear I pushed back to move on
Beating me like a panic attack since you've gone
And if I never fear to be more alone, I do now

I turn to see my faded tracks in the snow
I've come so far with no idea where to go
And if I never fear to be more alone, I do now
I do now

I need you to tell me you'll be right by my side
When I feel alone, you'll be right by my side, ooh

It's takin' hold of a fool with a fondness for pain
And turn to run without a chance to explain
And if I never thought I'd fall like the rain, I do now
I do now

I don't look back to spot where I fell
Don't you look back, and don't you ever tell
'Cause we know pride, it doesn't heal all that well
All that well, all that well

I need you to tell me you'll be right by my side
When I feel alone, you'll be right by my side
In a crazy world, you'll be right by my side

I need you to tell me you'll be right by my side
When I feel alone, you'll be right by my side
In a crazy world...

And I need you to tell me you'll be right by my side
When I feel alone, you'll be right by my side
You'll be right by my side

Cover What You Can lyrics - Copeland

Oooh, you could run and hide
Oooh, in the street outside

But if you get caught in the rain,
Just cover what you can,
And the rest it washes out
Like a bloodstain

Oooh, oooh

And if you get caught in the fire,
Just think about what made your heart cry out
For a little fire at all

Ooh...

The Last Time He Saw Dorie lyrics - Copeland

He's in love with tragedy, in love with tragedy
She was a wreck, but he loved her
She was a wreck, but so was he
And the last time he saw Dorie, he didn't know what to say but
"Thank you because you loved me, it's all on me
cause I didn't want to stay, I didn't want to stay..."

Live, live, live because you love, love, love
And love will make you give, give, give
And give in when you break, break, break
But you just want to fix yourself
Just to break again...

I'm A Sucker For A Kind Word lyrics - Copeland

I'd be hanging on their words
Like they almost meant a thing
And the only lullaby I heard
The sirens blaring, singing me to sleep
Holding my loved one tight...

On the softness of her laugh,
I could almost make my bed
But the racket of her absence draw in
The sirens blaring, ringing in my head
Holding nothing tight, holding nothing tight
With my eyes so wide

In a house without a back door
I was looking for a fire escape
And I'll be ripping up the floorboards
Just trying to get away
From this sleeplessness,
Sleeplessness, sleeplessness

She'd be hanging on my words
Like I almost meant a thing
And I'd give anything not to let her down
But finally sleep through just one more tonight
Holding her so tight, holding her so tight
But my eyes are wide

In a house without a back door
I was looking for a fire escape
And I'll be ripping up the floorboards
Just trying to get away
From this sleeplessness,
Sleeplessness, sleeplessness

'Cause my mind just can't stop moving, I think I know why
Oooh, I know why
It's sad, but I'm a sucker for a kind word
And I'll just hurt until I find one
I'll just hurt until I find one

And I've been trying all the windows
And I've been running up the staircase
In a house without a back door...

Sleeplessness, sleeplessness, sleeplessness
In a house without a back door (Sleeplessness)
I was looking for a fire escape (Sleeplessness)
And I'd be ripping up the floorboards (Sleeplessness)
Just trying to get away...

When You Thought You'd Never Stand Out lyrics - Copeland

In other lives
In a bulletproof suit with some friends of mine
I wrote the plotline
Only I knew who survived
And through the night
In a really fast car on an uphill climb
Blew past a danger sign
And fell through darkness, sublime
But awoke just in time

They’re gonna come to light tonight
They’re gonna come to light tonight
They’re gonna come to light tonight
But not for the last time

In younger days
I do my schoolwork while the neighbors play
But stare into space
With no feeling to convey
With no look on my face
In younger days
I’m stealing bases while my mother prays
And dreading to wake
Longing for one more play

They’re gonna come to light tonight
They’re gonna come to light tonight
They’re gonna come to light tonight
But not for the last time

I don’t know what everyone was looking at
I don’t care what everyone was laughing at
I don’t know what everyone was staring at
I think, I think that it’s me

I don’t know what everyone was looking at
I don’t care what everyone was laughing at
I don’t know what everyone was staring at
I think, I think that it’s me

Didn’t I tell you that I could hear you running out?
Didn’t I find you when I knew you were hiding out?
Didn’t I see you when you thought you’d never stand out?
Didn’t I find you? Didn’t I find you?

I don’t know what everyone was looking at
I don’t care what everyone was laughing at
I don’t know what everyone was staring at (they’re gonna come to light tonight)
I think, I think that it’s me

Didn’t I see you when you thought you’d never stand out? (I think, I think that it’s me)
Didn’t I find you? (They’re gonna come to light tonight)
I think, I think that it’s me

I don’t know what everyone was looking at
I don’t care what everyone was laughing at
I don’t know what everyone was staring at
I think, I think that it’s me

Didn’t I see you when you thought you’d never stand out?
Didn’t I find you? (They’re gonna come to light tonight)
I think, I think that it’s me

"In Motion" (2005)

No One Really Wins lyrics - Copeland

Welcome love, I have made a place for you here
I know every word they say.
I know how they want to make you change.

Change if you want, but don't you go and change for me
I can love you as you are
I didn't mean to make you want to leave

It's a fight between my heart and mind,
No one really wins this time
No one really wins this time

If you don't find the love you want,
if I have acted ungracefully
I don't want to see you go
I never meant to make you want to leave

But go if you want.
Make your way straight to the door.
I hope that you look back before you go
'cause grace looks back before it starts to leave

It's a fight between my heart and mind,
No one really wins this time
No one really wins this time
In the endless fight of grace and pride
I don't want to win this time
I don't want to win this time

Change if you want, but don't you go and change for me
I will love you as you are
I didn't mean to make you want to leave

It's a fight between my heart and mind
No one really wins this time
No one really wins this time
In the endless fight of grace and pride
I don't want to win this time
I don't want to win this time
In the endless fight of grace and pride
I don't want to win this time
I don't want to win this time

Choose The One Who Loves You More lyrics - Copeland

Rain, rain, rain on my mind
I've got a secret life
Wipe, wipe, wipe it away
Nothing can make me dry

Fight all the while
Fight 'til I think I'm free
Feel rains we never see
Beautiful secret lives

It can make you face all your fears
It can make you face all your fears

Oh, smile, smile in a day
Fear takes its place at night
Oh, oh, I'm pretty in the rain
I love your secret life

It can make you face all your fears
It can make you face all your fears.

I could leave you well enough alone
Believe and you'll be overcome and gone
By grace away
Better off than if I stayed
I could leave you well enough alone
Believe and you'll be overcome and gone
By grace away
Better off than if I stayed

I could leave you walk away
We'll save it for another day
Through all the wars I've come to know
It's punches pulled, not towels thrown in

When they come knocking on your heart's door
Choose the one who loves you more
And when you've found something to die for
(Make you face all your fears)
They'll be knocking on your heart's door
(Make you face all your fears)
When they come knocking on your heart's door
(Make you face all your fears)
Choose the one who loves you more
(Make you face all your fears)
And when you've found something to die for
(Make you face all your fears)
They'll be knocking on your heart's door
(Make you face all your fears)
When they come knocking on your heart's door
(Make you face all your fears)
Choose the one who loves you more
(Make you)

Pin Your Wings lyrics - Copeland

Hey Amanda
Where'd you find these crazy boys this time?
They say you're pretty but you don't think they're right.

Hey Amanda
While you're staring at your telephone tonight
do you feel like turning it off, turning off all of the lights?

Pin your wings down
if it's over now
Pin your wings down
just take a chance somehow

Hey Amanda
who just threw your heart away this time?
And when you're crying on your bed does he help keep you alive?

Pin your wings down
if it's all over now
Pin your wings down
just take a chance somehow

I'll take the blame if you take me home now
Cuz there's no place left for trust in all this pain
And you know when it rains in this town I get washed away
Without a sound
So pin my wings down

If it's over
If it's over now

Pin your wings down
if it's over now
Pin your wings down
just take a chance somehow

Sleep lyrics - Copeland

Am I sleeping with my eyes wide
Am I alone?
Am I staring into bright lights
Have I gone home?
I must be dreaming when I'm sitting here
On someone else's throne
Am I sleeping with my eyes wide
Won't you let me know?

Will I wake to find you waiting by my bedside?
Will I wake to find you waiting by my side?
Will I wake to find you waiting by my bedside?
Will I wake to find you waiting by my side?

Am I sleeping with my eyes wide
Am I alone?
Am I following the lines on faces never shone?
I want to see your hairline, your cheekbones
Your red lips on your cell phone
Won't you let me know?

Will I wake to find you waiting by my bedside?
Will I wake to find you waiting by my side?
Will I wake to find you waiting by my bedside?
Will I wake to find you waiting by my side?

Will I wake to find you waiting by my bedside?
Will I wake to find you waiting by my side?
Will I wake to find you waiting by my bedside?
Will I wake to find you waiting by my side?
