Ordinary

Oh, She’s not ordinary

But quite contrary

She’s quieter than the moon

But she could move oceans

If she wanted to


She wears golden rings, on her toes

It’s her super power, and nobody knows

Her voice, is hidden in the air

Fighting a world that doesn’t seem to care


She’s not ordinary

But quite contrary

She’s quieter than the moon

But she could move oceans

If she wanted to


At home, she turns on her stereo

And makes it loud, so she don’t have to know

She moves without a sound

You won’t hear her in a crowd


She’s not ordinary

But quite contrary

She’s quieter than the moon

But she could move oceans

If she wanted to


She just don’t know it yet

Starlings

High above, the avenue

Can you hear me calling, calling you

In this place, where we roam and play

The skies are ours this day


This is our time

It’s the right time

We are Starlings in the half light

And we carry the words on our wings

And call out the love as we sing

Carry the words on our wings, as we sing


We paper the walls, with our calls

A love letter, to us all

We comfort the breath, of the sleeping 

And chase, their nightmares away


This is our time

It’s the right time

We are Starlings in the half light


Folding back the years

Soaking up the tears

Oh wait for me, I’ll be there soon

Wait for me, I’ll come to you


This is our time

It’s the right time

We’ll be Starlings tonight

The Hours

We sit here wasting all these hours 

Have you got nothing left to say?

I’m suffocating in your silence

Our truth is dying by the day

Cos, you're not listening

My heart has turned to stone
Cos your not listening, I’m gonna pack my things,
pack my things and go


I wake up with the morning flowers

Turn on my faithful radio

To chase away these memories

I just want to be alone


Cos, you're not listening

My heart has turned to stone
Cos your not listening, I’m gonna pack my things,
pack my things and go


I want you to know 

Who I really am

Tired of cold conversation,  

I’m more than this, More than you’ll ever know


You're not listening

My heart has turned to stone
Cos your not listening, I’m gonna pack my things,
pack my things and go


The sky’s still sitting above me

Covering painful yesterdays

You’ve lost your power over me

No winners in these games you play


Cos, You're not listening

My heart has turned to stone
Cos your not listening, I’m gonna pack my things,
pack my things and go

Afterglow

Take​ ​the​ ​darkness, from​ ​​inside

If​ ​hope​ ​lives, it’s​ ​in​ ​​the​ ​light

Oh​​​, take me​ ​home​, take me​ ​home​ ​tonight


Like​ ​stars​ ​colliding

The​ ​afterglow​ ​is​ ​blinding

And​ we​ ​shine, we​ ​shine, oh​ ​we​ ​shine​ ​and â€‹we​ ​shine,

This​ ​love​ ​I​ ​can’t​ ​​describe


The​ ​golden​ ​light is​ ​in​ ​your​ ​eyes

I​ ​want​ ​to​ ​keep​ ​it​ ​there​ ​forever

We​ ​​can’t â€‹â€‹leave​ ​this​ ​all​ ​behind

Oh, this​ ​love​ ​I​ ​can’t​ ​​describe


Like​ ​stars​ ​colliding

The​ ​afterglow​ ​is​ ​blinding

And​ we​ ​shine, we​ ​shine, oh​ ​we​ ​shine​ ​and â€‹we​ ​shine,

This​ ​love​ ​I​ ​can’t​ ​​describe


Oh, We​ ​will​ ever ​​​reach​ ​the​ ​sun

When our wings are fully​ grown

When our wings are fully grown

We’ll​ ​be on​ ​our​ ​way 


Oh, this​ ​love​, I​ ​can’t​ ​describe

Oh​ ​take​ ​me​ ​home, take​ ​me​ ​home

Tonight
