We are girls, and we won't surrender

We spent our days in a near perfect place
That we found ourselves headfirst in
You'll say goodbye three days from now
You're flying back to England

Won't you stay around for the summer

Please say you'll be around for the summer
I promise that there's only one way
Only one choice to make

If you should leave we will begin to begin
To believe we dreamed the whole thing
Yesterday seemed real

It could all be over too soon
If it only makes sense after the event
We could be a lot too late

Be bold if you can
Try not to let it figure
Don't let this summery day
Morph into winter
We can bring our love to it
And not feel the pressure
Don't care what the others may say
We're rolling together

Promise me you'll be

The cheerleader of me

Ahhhh you know it's the answer
Oooohhhh when you're trying not to not to dance
Ahhh this is not the answer
Oooh let me dance
To the knocking on the walls

Try to put a lid on us

To squeeze out our emotions
Hauled up in a small dark room
One behind the other
Morning turned to afternoon
Our spirit we gathered
Numbers are a powerful thing

To show we're together

You can never be
This version only me

Hey all you
wannabe
girls

Who don't stand together
Move with your
energy

And make something better
Hold up your hands with me

And hold on forever
Power to you

If you do what you treasure

Be it as it may we are alone
Found ourselves in trouble on the telephone
Having sweet talk with another

When you overheard
Found ourselves making up
Before we'd learnt

Say it to me you don't believe it's true
We can be ourselves even when we're on the move
Tell me straight if you believe the same
Or you're not allowed *show me

We are playing
At being strangers

How are we to keep it from your family
There'll be trouble when we tell them and they disagree
They can put the squeeze on the way we feel
Wrap it up and make us a raw deal

Pre-hook
*tell me

Chorus

Instrumental

Chorus x 2

Night let my heart alone
Sirens they come and go

I can't understand
Can't understand

How you feel
The way that you look
Way that you look
Cold as steel

First come your silent eyes
I'm lost in your private eyes

Where did your love

Where did your love

Go to now
I can't understand
Can't understand

How you feel

Do what you want but you know that I won't lie still
The sooner you leave me the smaller the hole to fill
Do what you want but you know that I won't lie still
The sooner you leave me the smaller the hole to fill

Do what you want but you know that I won't lie still
don't play games
The sooner you leave me the smaller the hole to fill
no mistake
Do what you want but you know that I won't lie still
don't play games
The sooner you leave me the smaller the hole to fill
no mistake

Where did your love

Where did your love

Go to now
The way that you look
Way that you look

Cold as steel

Where did your love

Where did your love

Go to now

Any place you go
Sooner hit the road
Listen to the world
Closing in on you
Marking out your way
Territory made
Which way to the hills
Time to feel the change

I won't be your ambulance anymore
I won't be the one to explain
I won't be your ambulance anymore
I won't be the one to explain

Feeling like a stone
Waiting for my turn
Hollowed out inside
No more left to learn
Fear gets in the way
Lemon in your veins

It started like a forest fire
Held us in the grip of desire
Burned out too soon

Never crossed my mind that I could loose you
I turned my back

You disappeared from sight


Don't wanna be your latest mistake
Don't wanna be the next heart to break
Don't
wanna wake
up wishing it all away


God knows what a fool I've been
Trusted my heart with a dream
Fell back so hard

Should've seen it right from the start
I was standing tall
And now I'm on my knees

I have tried -
I still try

To make it seem like rainbows and silver linings
I still read -
I still write
Into magazines
Does anyone listen - anyone


Cause it's like
Nobody can hear the crying through the walls
Cause nobody answers
And I'm like
Am I the only person breathing in the air
Does nobody else care


I have tried -
I have made
Multicoloured pictures of our lives
We've seen some times - like the day

Those waterfalls were falling before our eyes
Does anyone see - anyone

I am sane
I am just like you
Underneath what you see
We're alike

We are similar
And we're older than our years

Given hope
Minutes too late
To hold onto
So sorry to waste
Slowly we fade

In our lives

We are underneath
Only inches away
On the surface
We seem regular
If you only spend the time

We're alike

We are similar
And we're older
Than our years
