Iris

And I'd give up forever to touch you,

Cause I know that you feel me some how.

You're the closest to heaven that I'll ever be,

And I don't want to go home right now.


And all I can taste is this moment,

And all I can breathe is your life,

And sooner or later it's over,

I just dont want to miss you tonight.


And I dont want the world to see me,

Cause I dont think that they'd understand.

When everything's made to be broken,

I just want you to know who I am.


And you cant fight the tears that ain't coming,

Or the moment of the truth in your lies.

When everything feels like the movies,

Yeah you bleed just to know you're alive.


And I dont want the world to see me,

'Cause I dont think that they'd understand.

When everything's made to be broken,

I just want you to know who I am.


And I dont want the world to see me,

Cause I dont think that they'd understand.

When everything's made to be broken,

I just want you to know who I am.


And I dont want the world to see me,

Cause I dont think that they'd understand.

When everything's made to be broken,

I just want you to know who I am.

I just want you to know who I am.

I just want you to know who I am.

I just want you to know who I am.

Broadway

Chorus: 

Broadway is dark tonight 

A little bit weaker than you used to be 

Broadway is dark tonight 

See the young man sitting 

In the old man’s bar 

Waiting for his turn to die 


The cowboy kills the rock star 

And Friday night’s gone too far 

The dim light hides the years 

On all the faded girls 


Forgotten but not gone 

You drink it off your mind 

You talk about the world 

Like it’s someplace that you’ve been 


You see you’d love to run home 

But you know you ain’t got one 

Cause you’re livin’ in a world 

That you’re best forgotten around here 


Chorus 


You choke down all your anger 

Forget your only son 

You pray to statues when you sober up for fun 

Your anger don’t impress me 

The world slapped in your face 

It always rains like hell on the losers day parade 


You see you’d love to run home 

But you know you ain’t got one 

’Cause you’re livin’ in a world that you’re best forgotten 

And when you’re thinkin’ of a joke 

And nobody’s gonna listen 

To the one small point 

I know they been missin’ round here 


Chorus 


You see you’d love to run home 

But you know you ain’t got one 

’Cause you’re livin’ in a world 

That you’re best forgotten 

When you’re thinkin’ of a joke 

And nobody’s gonna listen 

To the one small point 

I know they been missin’ round here 


Round here


Chorus  

Name

And even though the moment's passed me by

I still cant turn away

I saw the dreams you never thought you'd lose

Tossed along the way

Letters that you never meant to send

Lost and thrown away


And now we are grown up orphans that never knew their names

We dont belong to no one thats a shame

You could hide beside me

Maybe for a while

And I won't tell no one your name..

And I won't tell em your name


Scars are souvenirs you'll never lose

Past is never far

Did you lose yourself somewhere out there?

Did you get to be a star?

Don't it make you sad to know that life

Is more than who we are?


We grew up way too fast

Now there's nothing to believe

And re-runs all become our history

A tired song keeps playin on a tired radio

And I won't tell no one your name...

And I won't tell em your name

I won't tell em your name...I won't tell em your name


I think about you all the time

I don't need the same...

It's lonely where you are, come back down

And I won't tell em your name
