The Painter and the Chemist - Elias Hix

You can paint these wings and make me fly. (Repeated throughout) Crush coming over like the R.E.M kind Orange in the colour like Blackpool on the sunrise

He walks in, orders up a round How you been, my old friend? The band kicks off, the same ole dance The same ole worn out songs but he sings along He's gonna stay here 'til they make him leave 'Cause he's got all the friends a guy like him could ever need One will hang around and tell him what he wants to hear One will help by drownin' out the how'd you wind up heres One will hold him up, when love has let him down They do the best they can for a broken-hearted fool The Beer, the Band and the Barstool Corner booth, a blonde with lonely eyes A shade of blue, "Hey, how are you?" Just by chance, are you here alone? How about a dance? And she took his hand He hoped she'd stay, but always knew she'd leave But he's got all the friends a guy like him could ever need One will hang around and tell him what he wants to hear One will help by drownin' out the how'd you wind up heres One will hold him up, when love has let him down They do the best they can for a broken-hearted fool The Beer, the Band and the Barstool Now he last call, lights a cigarette and orders up one more Pays his tab, knows he'll be back, 'cause he's been here before One will hang around and tell him what he wants to hear One will help by drownin' out the how'd you wind up heres One will hold him up, when love has let him down They do the best they can for a broken-hearted fool They go hand-in-hand with losin' you The Beer, the Band and the Barstool And the Barstool

I wanna see the world And find out what the truth is And chase after a girl But I can't bear the newness It's who I am I've found it's easier giving up So I close my eyes Pretend I've never seen the sky And fear the only things I've ever loved So if you've got an anxious heart You're not the only one And I won't let you fall apart If you don't let me run Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh Breakdowns, I've had a few But I always come out laughing And I romanticize the cost But I'm not troubled like a genius I'm just troubled like a man that's lost, ooh And I still remember how it was When all these questions only served to pass the time And now it feels like asking ain't enough So if you've got an anxious heart You're not the only one And I won't let you fall apart If you don't let me run Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh And the boy says something's wrong But the people don't believe And the wolf comes in tonight When your mind is trying to sleep And I'll make up ways to steal my joy And when it's real I don't believe it And I swear it's just like being The village, the wolf and the boy I wanna feel the sun And find out what the truth is And chase after a girl 'Cause no matter how it breaks me I can't bring myself to hate this world

Stand proud, stand strong And allow the love and help that comes along You know the richest man didn't build his house alone The greatest lessons I learned, I learned right here at home You know the feeling I'm talking about Every woman and man without a doubt You're down but not out You can turn it around, turn it around There's nobody blocking your way, taking you down And if you think that you're lost, you can follow the bridges you've crossed And then you'll be found Stand proud, stand strong And allow the love and help that comes along You know without your love the light divides alone Lessons I learned right here at home You know the feeling I'm talking about Every woman and man without a doubt You're down but not out You can turn it around, turn it around There's nobody blocking your way, taking you down And if you think that you're lost, you can follow the bridges you've crossed And then you'll be found You know the feeling I'm talking about Every woman and man's been down and out But you can turn it around You can turn it around You can turn it around You can turn it around Yeah you can turn it around, turn it around There's nobody blocking your way, taking you down And if you think that you're lost, you can follow the bridges you've crossed And if you think that you have lost all the version of feeling you saw Just turn it around You can turn it around You can turn it around You can turn it around
