23
(D. Odigie)
long time since those days
when she used to call me from downstairs
i’m waiting on it
sunset
half a case
come pick me up
spinning out in all the wrong ways
we worry about all the wrong things
these days are different
honest
i miss
the way we were
time slips fast
i feel inside out
i wanna make it last with you
I wanna feel like we were 23
i wanna be as free as we seemed
i wanna live for the night only
with you
i want everything coming easy
see the world as more than it seems
i wanna live for the night only
with you
i never knew that someday
we would be so separate
after all we have seen
and everyday
everything i read
i want it back
standing now in all of their lines
grow up buy a car buy you a house
then why are we more lost right now
than ever before
time slips fast
i feel inside out
i wanna make it last with you
I wanna feel like we were 23
i wanna be as free as we seemed
i wanna live for the night only
with you

Where You Go
(D. Odigie)
they say I’m all or nothing
they could be right
One moment’s all emotion
Next thing I wake up running
But now with you it’s different
I’m here I’m here to stay
Before now I was always changing
Looking out for a new face
Anyone who could fill the space
It’s always been your shape
No matter where you go
I’ll be right beside you
Even with my eyes closed
I can always find you
I could never let go
I would never try to
Even if you let go
I’ll be right beside
Oh oh oh
I could never let go
I would never try to
One day I’m sure you’ll wonder
If they could be right
If I could turn from thunder
Back into open skies
To me it’s so simple
I’m here I’m here to stay
Before now I was always phasing
on the move for a new place
but you’re the one who can fill the space its
always been your shape
No matter where you go
I’ll be right beside you
Even with my eyes closed
I can always find you
I could never let go
I would never try to
Even if you let go
I’ll be right beside
Oh oh oh
I could never let go
I would never try to
half my life’s been spent dreaming
you can’t blame me
when waking up is telling
it’s taking all of my quiet
my mind and
I get under these covers like no other
damn right
sometimes it’s frightening
being in my skin
timing’s not great there’s ups though
there’s no perfect world
so i make one for us
all this weight on me
makes me soar off this sidewalk
it’s so goddamn palpable

Touch of the Sky
let me out
i’ll walk away and say my name
stand in my own place
i want to face it
i want it up high
a touch of the sky
the reason why i came
from what i made
and i can’t be inside my only mind
it’s like i’m inside out
i’m on the ground
and all the avenues have seen my shoes
its gotta be some time
for me to stop
oh oh
right
i’ll take it for myself
a way to say my name
and stand in my own place
the world won’t face me
i want it up high
like all of the time
police in all our way
cover our days
and i can’t be the only eyes to see
i try to take my own advice
but we all in the news
kid size - his tennis shoes
under a sheet on top
its got to stop
oh oh
right

Waves
(D. Odigie)
i can’t walk this way by myself
its taking some weight off
to be silent inside of your arms
it makes me want to cry
your body’s straight out of university
i missed so much
Can you teach me
i’ll keep my eyes permanently fixed on you
Tell me what to make of you
Tell me what I do now
that you are all mine
i look in the mirror sometimes when you touch me
so i can believe the way you love me
the way you get lost inside
i can’t walk this way by myself
its taking some weight off
to be silent inside of your arms
it makes me want to cry

Winter
(D. Odigie)
let the winter go by
want to get to the summer
and we stay up all night
will we ever recover
woman you and me are right
we’re the one for each other
how do i know it?
there’s a way in your eyes
oh it’s ever too familiar
a light in your smile
that i somehow remember
and loving all night
undeniable tender
how do you do it?
you walk me right to the moon
and i’ll likely
never resume
my life pre me and you
it’s all right
i believe never too soon
lately i been kinda through
with timing
its really all in our minds
you’re so real
you’re real
i was just a little child
reaching out for the tv
looking everywhere around
and i never could see it
dreaming of you like i’m now
only one that could be it
you were just a baby
and its kinda strange
all the years of delay
but you and me were made
to fit around each other
fold as we lay
how do you do it?
you walk me right to the moon
and i’ll likely
never resume
my life pre me and you
it’s all right
i believe never too soon
lately i been kinda through
with timing
it’s really all in our minds
you’re so real
you’re so real

Sweat
(D. Odigie
I can’t help it if I sweat to the music
I can’t help it if I sway when I lose it
I can’t help it if it sinks under my skin
i wanna forget
All of the days when I wasn’t dancing
Or on the other hand maybe I should remember
So I do not return
never forget
When my shirt was dry and I thought I could hide
From myself but everywhere that I tried
To run away there I was I ain’t perfect
But that ain’t nothing
When you learn to love it
If you’re dancing with me you might get wet
Cause I can’t help it if I sweat
I can’t help it if I cry when you leave me
I can’t help it if the song that you’re singing
Pull the trigger on the hurt oh lord
Make me wanna forget
When the sun rises I’ll hop in the ride
To all the places
I uncovered your lies
now you’re gone
And ain’t nobody perfect
But now we Ain’t nothing
And I’m learnin’ to love it
if you’re dancing with me you might get wet
Cause I can’t help it if I sweat
Oh underneath the blue lights
i can’t feel the way i did
all these days that i tried to let you go you’re not real
its running me around
color up this town
you were the light of my life
now it’s time to turn you all the way off
one time to your lying side
one time to the banging beat
one time to the new horizon
one time to the masterpiece
the one that you used to be

Place to Be
(D. Odigie)
we hush our mouths
or say it louder
there's a language
we're looking for
but i can't endure
this way
no the truth is that i can't stay
it’s obvious how we gonna work this out
it’s a wonder how we're gonna go without
you talk with your eyes
but you're the reason i've gone blind
wonder if it’s the moon that’s shaping
or if it’s just been shaking me
oh to be the one that's breaking
to be the one without a place to be
get around it
we swore in time we could
get it right
and save us from ourselves
but you talk to me now from the street
such hard lines in between
you and me now that we are vacant
strangers oh to who we used to be
oh and i'm the one that's breaking
i'm the one without a place to be
and i can't bear to
let you find me out
find me out
find me out
can't find me out
i wonder if it’s all we make it
or if it’s just who we were meant to be
oh when i'm the one who's breaking
oh I’m the one without a place to be
and i can't bear to
let you find me out
find me out
find me out
can't find me out
oh oh oh
oh oh oh

Midnight Lightning
(D. Odigie, A. Agin)
I am a storm on the sea
As you stand so still so soft
I reach
With hands so cold so lonesome
I need you
Cause I am a storm
I would change for you
If you want me
I'll give it all I’ve got
I can only be myself
but I want to be the thing that you need
i’ll make it better
If you let me
I wanna rest with you in the light
under the brightest sky
I’m done with the dark
I’m leaving my pride behind
And gently I will love you
Hear me say
Come closer don’t fear me
I know that I’ve been raining
I would change for you
if you want me
I'll give it all I’ve got
I can only be myself
but I want to be the thing that you need
i’ll make it better
If you let me
I am the midnight lightning
You come like the morning
You calm
