Arrows to Athens - Dust & Gold @NomadNomadCZ

yeye It's down to me and you,
In this cold and empty room-
Forgotten what we're dying for.

Just tell me what to change.
Just tell me what to say,
'Cause I can't feel it anymore.

But why are we so incomplete?

It's down to you and me,
In this cold and empty street-
Forgotten what we're living for.

Just tell me what is right.
'Cause it's more than what's inside-
'Cause I can't see it anymore.

All I see are kings and thieves-
When all I own is just dust and gold.
Oooh...

Don't let go yet,
Don't settle for less.
And everything you are...

Why are we so incomplete?
When all I own is just dust-
Just dust and gold.

When all I see are kings and thieves;
When all I own is just dust and gold-
So rescue me.

(Why are we so incomplete?)
Rescue me.
So rescue me.
(Why are we so...)
Ohh...

Arrows to Athens - Run, Run

yeye 2011-12-24 | Look out on the night, lit up through the air-
Kiss me across a room again.
And hold onto my hand, but only long enough-
Slip away into the evening wind.

And run, run, 'til you can't run far enough.
'Cause I will love, love, 'cause I can't love anyone-
The way that I love you, oh.

Look out through the grass, across the crowded street-
Like a silhouette, you're leaving through the fog.
Let go of the light, afraid to just believe-
That maybe I am really what you want, yeah.

So run, run, 'til you can't run far enough.
Yeah I will love, love, 'cause I can't love anyone-
The way that I love you.

When will you embrace the things that make you so afraid
That you might lose every piece that makes you who you want to be?
And don't you tire of all the pain?
So sick of falling prey to the thing that makes you run, run away...

So run, run, 'til you can't run far enough.
Yeah I will love, love, 'cause I can't love anyone-
The way that I love you.

I won't give up; you won't wait-
I won't give up your refrain that I will love.
I won't give up; you won't wait-
I won't give up; you're afraid that I will run, run.
Why can't you go where I won't be-
Why can't you run away from me?
Yeah I will love, love...

Run, run, 'til you can't run far enough.
I will love, I will love; 'cause I can't love anyone-
The way that I love you.

Arrows to Athens - Your Gravity

yeye 2011-12-24 | This is my goodbye.
I can't take another year-
Falling into broken expectations.

If you unearth the site, you'll find no survivors here.
I'm coming back to life, now, slowly.

This is a moment-
This is my only chance.
So I leave the ground and break through these clouds.
Your gravity holds me-
Your gravity holds me.

Dawn is shaping time,
And I'm talking to myself again-
Reciting empty phrases, but I'm keeping hope alive.

This is a moment-
This is my only chance.
So I leave the ground and break through these clouds.
Your gravity holds me-
Your gravity holds me.

Whoa, whoa...

This is my goodbye-
This is a moment-
This is my only chance.
So I leave the ground and break through these clouds.
Your gravity holds me.

Remember the last words-
I'm leaving with no regret.
So I leave the ground and break through these clouds.
Your gravity holds me-
Your gravity holds me, yeah.
Your gravity holds me, yeah.
Ohh...

Arrows to Athens - Silence

yeye 2011-12-23 | What is this-
What is this that made us wonder who we are?
Couldn't face what we had done, and so we covered up the scars.
And now we hope, but our hope is buried underneath at night.
Can't escape, and the silence holds us captive with this lie.

And it all comes back to this-
It was an ordinary moment;
Tore the sky and cut us open.
And now I cannot forgive or forget what we have done-
The silence has become the end of us.

We believed that keeping quiet was the only way to find-
Innocence to get us back to who we were before that night, yeah.

And it all comes back to this-
It was an ordinary moment;
Tore the sky and cut us open.
And now I cannot forgive or forget what we have done-
The silence has become the end of us.

Now pray for the day when the truth will make us pay for this-
Do you believe that the silence can erase the memory?

And it all comes back to this-
It was an ordinary moment;
Tore the sky and cut us open.
And now I cannot forgive or forget what we have done-
The silence has become the end of us-
The silence has become the end of us.

Yeah, yeah.
Yeah, yeah.

Arrows to Athens - Alive

yeye 2011-12-19 | There are clouds on the horizon,
So take a breath here in the calm before the storm.
If only for a moment-

Close your eyes and feel the thunder,
We can't hide or run for cover anymore.
It's time to take a stand together, oh.
Oh...

Hold on, 'cause the tide is strong-
It can't erase the fire in our eyes.
(Fire in our eyes.)
Let the walls break-
What we have they cannot take.
And if all that's left is you and me tonight-
No, they won't take us alive.
(No, they won't take us alive.)

We dream about tomorrow,
Know that hope will always come to those in need.
The best of us is left
After the storm has shown his anger,
And the skies have tried-
To bring us to our knees.
We are standing, we're still standing.

So hold on, 'cause the tide is strong-
They can't erase the fire in our eyes.
(Fire in our eyes.)
Let the walls break-
What we have they cannot take.
And if all that's left is you and me tonight-
No, they won't take us alive.

(No, they won't take us alive.)
(No, they won't take us alive.)

Before the waves are over our heads-
(No, they won't take us alive.)
Over our heads.
(No, they won't take us alive.)
Don't be afraid-
(No, they won't take us alive.)
We'll make it through this.
Make it through this-

So hold on, 'cause the tide is strong-
They can't erase the fire in our eyes.
(Fire in our eyes.)
Let the walls break-
What we have they cannot take.
And if all that's left is you and me tonight-
No, they won't take us alive.
(No, they won't take us alive.)
(Over our heads.)
And if all that's left is you and me tonight-
No, they won't take us alive.
Whoa, whoa.
Whoa...

Arrows to Athens - The Waiting

yeye 2011-12-19 | You do your best not to notice-
The crumbling ground beneath your feet.
The rest of life is waiting for us,
But what we've done will never leave.

Fate still holds us.
We work our life to ease a conscience,
And fill the Earth to set it free.
'Cause truth will rise up to the surface-
And present words won't change a thing.

But we can't shake the screams in the night,
And our hearts race 'cause the dreams never die.
But we try to drown these memories-
Over, over...
Waiting, never sleep.

There's absolution for what's stolen-
At least we believed it all along.
To end the doubt to cut us open-
We must learn to live without what's gone.
In the wake of the moment-

'Cause we can't shake the screams in the night,
And our hearts race 'cause the dreams never die.
But we try to drown these memories-
Over, over...
Waiting, never sleep.

And the waiting-
Watching us.

There's absolution for what's stolen-
At least we believed it all along.

But we can't shake the screams in the night,
And our hearts race, 'cause the dreams never die.
But we try to drown these memories-
Over, over...
Waiting, never sleep.
Over, over...
Waiting, never sleep-
Never sleep.
Though we try to drown these memories-
Over, over...
Waiting, never sleep.

(Waiting, watching now...)
(Waiting, watching now...)

Arrows to Athens - Used to Be

yeye 2011-12-18 | Take a breath; take a long look around
Before you step-
'Cause the tide is coming.
Swallowing the ground-
And there's no way to tell if we will drown tonight,
Or we'll be found tonight.

Come in close; if the current gets us,
Then it gets us both.
And we can't wait here anymore-

So if the waves come, let 'em take us-
As they cover you and me, and they pull us underneath-

I hope that fate will forgive us for tempting the sea.
I hope that they won't forget us-
But we cannot go back to the way it used to be.

Take it in; take a good look at
What it might have been.
As we're swept into the water from the shore,
Because there's no way they can tell us that we can't have more-
Because we can have more.

As the waves come, let 'em take us-
As they cover you and me, and they pull us underneath-

I hope that fate will forgive us for tempting the sea.
I hope that they won't forget us-
No we cannot go back to the way it used to be.

So certain, where it would take us-
So sure that we were never lost;
To notice whether we'll be drowned tonight or found tonight...

So as the waves come, let 'em take us-
As they cover you and me, and they pull us underneath-
It takes the shape of who will save us.
When it leaves it's hard to know,
But I will not let you go.

I hope that fate will forgive us for tempting the sea.
I hope that they won't forget us-
No we cannot go back to the way it used to be.
I hope that they won't forget us-
No we cannot go back to the way it used to be.

Arrows to Athens - Crime

yeye 2011-12-18 | What you gonna say?
Not the person that you believed-
And who's it gonna hurt?
After all, it's only you and me.

You're always so careful to never let it show,
'Cause you're so afraid that you'll find yourself alone
With a bag and a gun, a thought in love.

But it's time to open up the closet,
To open up our eyes.
Let our own love delight-
So you can be the witness, and I'll commit the crime-
Yeah I'll commit the crime.

Look at this life-
Is the mirror what you want to see?
Are you scared of what we'll find-
Or is it everything you want it to be?

'Cause it's time to open up the closet,
To open up our eyes.
Let our own love delight-
So you can be the witness, and I'll commit the crime-
I'll commit the crime.

Yeah, yeah...

Always so careful to never let it show-
You're so afraid that you'll find yourself alone
With a bag and a gun, a thought in love.

But it's time to open up the closet,
To open up our eyes.
Let our own love delight-
So you can be the witness, and I'll commit the crime.
But it's time-
So you can be the witness, and I'll commit the crime-
Yeah I'll commit the crime.

Arrows to Athens - Chase the Sun

yeye 2011-12-18 | The stars slowly separate
Driving down a road that's taking us away
All I ever wanted was this

Your eyes tell me what you've lost
You finally take a breath now that we are gone
All you ever wanted was this
All I ever wanted

Tonight we chase the sun
We're burning up the sky like the world is ours
But can you feel so lonely if you're not alone?
We'll find away to get back all the light
So we chase the sun

The grass between the air and dust
Is all that holds us back from getting what we want
All we ever wanted was this

Tonight we chase the sun
We're burning up the sky like the world is ours
How can you feel so lonely if you're not alone
We'll find away to get back all the light
So we chase the sun

How much longer must the morning wait?
It's coming up on the horizon

Tonight
Tonight

Tonight we chase the sun
We're burning up the sky like the world is ours
But can you feel so lonely if you're not alone?
We'll find away to get back all the light
So we chase the sun

Tonight we chase the sun
We're burning up the sky like the world is ours

Arrows to Athens - Ghost in the Water

yeye 2011-12-18 | The edge of the earth now
I've never seen this place before
The ghosts in the water
Waiting for dark before pulling us under

Below is a wasteland
With stories of empires underground
Didn't crawl to salvation
Make it this far just to bank our way back down

'Cause this is a fight to break the silence
These are the lies we've made
To try to hold ourselves up now

There's no room for martyrs
There's not any time for us to doubt
But the grey makes it harder
Burning to see but we won't close our eyes now

'Cause this is a fight to break the silence
These are the lies we've made
To try to hold ourselves up now

The pull of the tide is always quiet
But this is a fight to take one more breath before we drown

Go to sleep now
Go to sleep now
Just let go
Just let go

'Cause this is a fight to break the silence
These are the lies we've made
To try to hold ourselves up now

The pull of the tide is always quiet
But this is a fight to take one more breath before we drown
One more breath before we drown
Before we drown

Arrows to Athens - Ashes

yeye 2011-12-16 | A star it falls,
A silhouette.
The sound it flies,
Without a breath.
Just give me one more reason to hold on.
Just a night-
While a second stop before our eyes-
A second chance could save us.

'Cause I believe that something
Will take the place of love.
After everything we've lost-
From a flame that burned-
All that's left for us
Are the ashes.

Before the sky was painted red,
And the setting sun stole our innocence.
We clearly saw the treason in the fall.
Not tonight-
Not a second's left before goodbye.

'Cause I believe that something
Will take the place of love.
After everything we've lost-
From a flame that burned-
All that's left for us
Are the ashes.

Don't pretend that it's a dream-
Give it up.
All the fire we could bleed is not enough.

'Cause I believe that something
Will take the place of love.
After everything we've lost-
From a flame that burned-
All that's left for us-
And all that's left for us
Are the ashes-
Are the ashes.

Arrows to Athens - Stars

yeye 2011-12-16 | Here is tomorrow
Just past the sunrise
My fingers reaching out
'Cause we are believers
The guards of the skyline
The curse can't tie us down

We've waited so long
We waited long enough

This is our right, this is our song
This is our moment in history
Ten million roads turn into one
This is our fight, where we belong
No one can take away destiny
So let the night cover us all
Stars will never fall

I try to remember
Frozen in silence
Our blood red beating cold
But oh let the darkness
Always remind us
To never let this go

Keep holding on
We've waited long enough

This is our right, this is our song
This is our moment in history
Ten million roads turn into one
This is our fight, where we belong
No one can take away destiny
So let the night cover us all
Stars will never fall
Stars will never fall

So brave the dark
'Cause the day is ours
And there's nothing left to stop us
`Cause we are believers
The guards of the skyline

This is our right, this is our song
This is our moment in history
Ten million roads turn into one
This is our fight, where we belong
No one can take away destiny
So let the night cover us all
Stars will never fall
Stars will never fall
