I. U & I U & I U & I We’re known U & I U & I yeah We're known Let's get known Let's come clean because U & I U & I We're an island I can't swim, you can't sail Away from this We're together U & I, right? U & I, right? We're an island, we're an island We're an island, we're an island II. Flight III. Arctic My heart is arctic cold My heart is arctic cold The bitter chill is killing all the feeling in my chest I wish the winter storm would end and thaw this emptiness My heart is arctic cold My hollow heart is arctic cold The frost is melting slowly, ice is dripping into a cup I think I'll drink that water down before it freezes back up IV. Hide and Seek Eyes, swollen eyes It's ugly under this It's ugly under this Eyes, swollen eyes It's ugly under this The sheets are still a mess You can't catch me Come and find me You're gonna be a rock 'n' roll star You're gonna be a millionaire You're gonna be a rock 'n' star You're gonna marry every girl And I'll sew my eyes shut And I'll lock them with a key And I'll soak this air up And I'll spit it like a seed You can't catch me! Eyes, swollen eyes It's ugly under this This place is such a mess Eyes, fading eyes They're empty enemies Your empty enemies V. Delay All my friends are lined up at the station All my friends are waiting to be worn, like sneakers side by side along the avenue All my friends are looking for the ticket All my friends are looking for a drink Their feet are bare and tired and waiting to arrive And this delay feels like a waistband suffocating a beaten bible from a groom who leaves his bride All my friends are lined up at the station All my friends are looking for a ride They're sick and tired of being in the driver's seat All my friends, they're looking for the answers They're written pages ready to be read, from letters sealed and stamped and waiting to arrive And this delay feels like a waistband suffocating a beaten bible from a groom who leaves his bride All these things undone, they'll fall away If all these things undone, they'd fall away All my friends are lined up at the station All my friends are waiting to be worn, like sneakers side by side along the avenue VI. No. 3
