nostatic at all...

To see a smile, and hear that laugh
Never meaning to break the ties
Or hurt someone on my behalf
Scars can tell a twisted tale
Mistakes were made the same
And not afraid to fail

I need you but I need myself
I need you and I heal myself

A chance to see just what is lost
Eyes in that stunning shot,
Tell volumes of the cost
Mistakes are made, and then repeated
It's hard to face the facts,
See the one that cheated

I need you but I need myself
I need you and I heal myself

This turn is short, cannot waste
See the light and reach for it
With people we are graced
To have a choice, although it's blurred
See the way and feel today
A heart is finally heard

I need you but I need myself
I need you and I heal myself

Pin the hopes and dreams on a slice of time
There's danger in tying to a moment always dying
Packed and ready, played around the edges for so long
A proper coming out, a chance to bury some doubt

4 Nights in Tokyo, it would make it all right
4 Nights in Tokyo, could be a bit too tight

11 hours in a tin can, wasn't the worst part
No time for a refill, could be my bitter pill
Big city, bright lights, small room
Just like the inside, losing grip on the ride

4 Nights in Tokyo, sit in a stranger's car
4 Nights in Tokyo, a warm spot seems so far

Know yourself, know the world, no nothing
Foundation cracks, no grounding strap
Overbooked, undercooked, worry how it looked
When did the sun start setting in the east?

4 Nights in Tokyo, the room is getting smaller
4 Nights in Tokyo, the shadow is getting taller

Finally come clean, but the call starts a spin
First flight out, clear the decks, hold on tight
Hoping to clear, when back on thin ice
Home field advantage, still just can't manage

4 Nights in Tokyo, home seems bittersweet
4 Nights in Tokyo, it's still incomplete

Had enough, how many times
Too many to count, no defense to mount
I'm inside my outside and back again

Live up to the mirror, how many times
Not good enough, lay up from the rough
I'm inside my outside and back again

She's the one, how many times
In love with the idea of being in love
I'm inside my outside and back again

If I knew then, how many times
Mistakes are the same, different game
I'm inside my outside and back again

Today's a new day, how many times
Feels suspiciously like, falling off the same old bike
I'm inside my outside and back again
