"Wake Up And Say Goodbye" (2008)

The River lyrics - David Usher

I remember that I found you
Just waiting in the dark
Took me to the river where we always fell apart
And we lay amongst the rocks
Naked in the sand
Waiting for the moment that we hoped would never end
And I came to you for comfort
But I never stopped the pain
I remember we were smiling
As our bodies tore away

So take me to the river
I can almost feel it
The water's washing over me
And I don't even mind
And I know that you're screaming
I can barely hear it
The water's washing over me
And I don't even mind
I don't even mind
I don't even mind
I don't even mind

Woke up in the morning
As the lights began to freeze
Tried to stop the current changing of the leaves
Now it's frozen in the spotlight
Burns like the sun
Waiting for the moment that I knew would never come
So I held you close for comfort
But I couldn't stop the pain
Knew that we were dying
As our bodies tore away

So take me to the river
I can almost feel it
The water's washing over me
And I don't even mind
And I know that you're screaming
I can barely hear it
The water's washing over me
And I don't even mind
I don't even mind

There, by the shore, I am raw
I can almost taste it
Hope, like a drug, in the blood
I can feel it coming
Walk, till we fall, till we crawl
I can almost taste it
There in the blood
Like a drug
I can hear it coming

So take me to the river
I can almost feel it
The water's washing over me
And I don't even mind
And I know that you're screaming
I can barely hear it
The water's washing over me
And I don't even mind
[x2]
I don't even mind
I wash away
I wash away

We Are Wolves Here (Electric City) lyrics - David Usher

Live hate
Blind faith
Breathe deep
Takes me
We hold fast
Won't last
And night falls
It's just
It's just as well

And if we danced all night
Fell so deep
If we could live to tell
What our eyes have seen
We are wolves here
And so I held you tight
Dared to confess
So you could feel my body
Steal each breath
We are wolves here

Taste the electricity
City unwinds 'till we believe
And joy has left
Burns until it's dead

And if we danced all night
Fell so deep
If we could live to tell
What our eyes have seen
We are wolves here
And so I held you tight
Dared to confess
So you could feel my body
Steal each breath
We are wolves here

Live hate
Blind faith
And joy has left
Burns until it's dead

And if we danced all night
Fell so deep
If we could live to tell
What our eyes have seen
We are wolves here
And so I held you tight
Dared to confess
So you could feel my body
Steal each breath
We are wolves here

And So We Run lyrics - David Usher

Give me a sign
Give me a reason to hold on
I'm holding on
What is a life?
A series of moments
All in a line
Just passing by

And so I lay here awake
As all the clouds fall away
Then fast asleep in your arms
Wake up wonder where we are
Try to freeze frame the day
Then the light starts to fade
I will scream at the sky
'Til we drink the oceans dry
And so we run
And so we run
And so we run

Over the bridge
Back to the place where we were young
What we could've done
What did you find?
That we are naked under God
Lucky God is blind

And so I lay here awake
As all the clouds fall away
Then fast asleep in your arms
Wake up wonder where are
Try to freeze frame the day
Then the light starts to fade
I will scream at the sky
'Til we drink the oceans dry
And so we run
And so we run
And so we run
And so we run
And so we run
And so we run

Give me a sign
Give me a reason to hold on
I'm holding on

And so I lay here awake
As all the clouds fall away
Then fast asleep in your arms
Wake up wonder where we are
Try to freeze frame the day
Then the light starts to fade
I will scream at the sky
'Til we drink the oceans dry
And so we run
And so we run
And so we run
And so we run
And so we run
And so we run

My Biggest Mistake lyrics - David Usher

Help is on the way
Doctor he says that you're fine
Clean bill of health now
Cold crisp winter's day
Through car window trees rushing by
The medicine's poisoned my mind

And what did you think I would say?
And how did you think I could save you?
It's my biggest mistake
That I never did lie
I couldn't save you

Sit and stare for hours
Wait for the morning to come
Dream is a nightmare
Helplessly entwined
Your body like it's on fire
An alien love song tonight

And what did you think I would say?
And how did you think I could save you?
It's my biggest mistake
That I never realized
I couldn't save you

Help is on the way

And what did you think I would say?
And how did you think I could save you?
It's my biggest mistake
That I never realized
I couldn't save you

(Help is on the way
Doctor he says that you're fine
Clean bill of health now
Cold crisp winter's day...)

Wake Up And Say Goodbye lyrics - David Usher

Salvation's on the way
I caught the last flight headed for outer space
My ticket's all arranged
And if I left you there
Well that was my mistake
Baby's got the blues
Think that I'll write it all down
There's nothing I could do
In order to save myself
I had to cut you loose

Race across the universe
That separates the space between us
All your ghosts are calling at the speed of light I cannot feel
All the ghosts are calling, get no answer
Wake up and say goodbye

Lost you on the wind
And as those memories died, still I can't let you in
We all start to fade
Somehow still radiate
Baby's got the blues
I tried to write it all down
There's nothing I could do
In order to save yourself
You had to cut me loose

Race across the universe
That separates the space between us
All your ghosts are calling at the speed of light I cannot feel
All the ghosts are calling, get no answer
Wake up and say goodbye

Race across the universe
That separates the space between us
All your ghosts are calling at the speed of light I cannot feel
All the ghosts are calling, get no answer
Wake up and say goodbye

Race across the universe
That separates the space between us (Wake up and say goodbye)
All your ghosts are calling at the speed of light I cannot feel (Wake up and say goodbye)
All the ghosts are calling, get no answer
Wake up and say goodbye

Kill The Lights lyrics - David Usher

Sleep, dear
The world has gone quiet
I know you'll wake up again when you feel the sun
So please breathe
I know you're pretending
There's blood at the discotheque
So sick what we've become
Come on let go

And kill the lights
'Cause they're blinding me
I've been watching all the stars go by
Devil takes my hand
And now they've seen our blackest hearts
Now they've seen the hole inside
Come on take my hand

I know
You're broken on the inside
The city is flowing through you, that's what you've become
So please breathe
There's nothing worth saving
There's love at the discotheque
So sick what we have done
Come on let go

And kill the lights
'Cause they're blinding me
I've been watching all the stars go by
Devil takes my hand
And now they've seen our blackest hearts
Now they've seen the hole inside
Come on take my hand
Come on take me

And if I die before I wake
Into the light
If I could bend, but never break
And live a lie
And should we die
Before we wake
(Goodbye)
Come on let go

And kill the lights
'Cause they're blinding me
I've been watching all the stars go by
Devil takes my hand
And now they've seen our blackest hearts
Now they've seen the hole inside
Come on take my hand
Come on take me

Another bitter love song, Tokyo skyline burns so bright
Never ever wanna let you go, go
Left you on the dance floor, dying in the spotlight
Don't be scared
Never ever gonna let you go, go, go, go, go, go



Everyday Things lyrics - David Usher

It's everyday things
Like coffee to go
Like watching your mouth move through the words
Like a million times before
I'm watching the rain
Just to see how it falls
Watching the light fade from your eyes
As we start to numb
It's everyday things
Time stands still
There's blood on my fingertips
Do you feel the chill?

And then the waves come crashing
I can feel the weight of water
I can hear the angels singing
They're laughing, yeah, they're laughing at us
Day by day, and it's moment after moment
I can hear the people singing
They're laughing, yeah, they're laughing at us now

Before it gets light
Before we're undone
Before the white noise takes us over
Before they can speak
All crowded around
Before the wrong words take us over

And then the waves come crashing
I can feel the weight of water
I can hear the angels singing
They're laughing, yeah, they're laughing at us
Day by day, and it's moment after moment
I can hear the people singing
They're laughing, yeah, they're laughing at us now

It's everyday things
Like coffee to go
Like watching your mouth move through the words
Like a million times before
It's everyday things
When time stands still
There's blood on your fingertips
Do you feel the chill?

And then the waves come crashing
I can feel the weight of water
I can hear the angels singing
They're laughing, yeah, they're laughing at us
Day by day, and it's moment after moment
I can hear the people singing
They're laughing, yeah, they're laughing at us now

They're laughing at us now
They're laughing at us now
They're laughing at us now
They're laughing at us now

I Am The Weapon lyrics - David Usher

Walking underwater
Sinking in the sand
Thought I saw the future
It's just out of reach
Weighs me like an anchor
Wraps around our feet
Drags me to the city
I can see
You and I are helpless
Falling like the leaves
Blowing through the city

I am the weapon
I am the weapon
I am the weapon
I am the weapon

Forget the world I promised
Take only what you need
Things that really matter
You know that we're helpless
Just waiting on our knees
And nothing really matters

I am the weapon
I am the weapon
I am the weapon
I am the weapon

So we crumble into sand
Takes the better part of me
Leaves me waiting by the shore
And I don't care, I don't care
I don't need you
I won't ever let go
So we crumble 'til it's gone, gone, gone

Walking underwater
Sinking in the sand
Thought I saw the future

I am the weapon
I am the weapon
I am the weapon
I am the weapon
I am the weapon
I am the weapon

Airplanes lyrics - David Usher

Sold myself out for a pocket of lies
Into the sea, you threw us into the sea
Took yourself out on a holiday
Pay the way, I always pay the way
Everybody wants a 9 to 5
Typical lies, I said more typical lies
Only wanted to be by your side
You're making it hard to survive

And these airplanes
Flying in the fast lane
And they push on through
Yeah, they push on through
It's killing me
The weight of your gravity
And they push on through
Yeah, they push on through

Cliche le Chez is just the name I use
Into the sea, I threw us into the sea
Underwhelming just a game we play
Come on down, you'll never be set free
Took myself out on a holiday
Pay the way, I always pay the way
Only wanted to be by your side
You're making it hard to survive

And these airplanes
Flying in the fast lane
And they push on through
Yeah, they push on through
It's killing me
The weight of your gravity
And they push on through
Yeah, they push on through

And these airplanes
Flying in the fast lane
And they push on through
Yeah, they push on through
It's killing me
The weight of your gravity
And they push on through
Yeah, we push on through

These airplanes
Flying in the fast lane
And they push on through
Yeah, they push on through
It's killing me
The weight of your gravity
And they push on through
Yeah, they push on through

These airplanes
Flying in the fast lane
And they push on through
Yeah, they push on through
It's killing me
The weight of your gravity
And they push on through
Yeah, they push on through

Secret Garden lyrics - David Usher

So you hustle 'til the pain grows
Fighting 'til the needle calls
Always when the needle calls
So you hustle 'til the pain grows too strong
So you hustle 'til the pain grows
Fighting 'til the needle calls
Always when the needle calls
So you suffer 'til the pain goes too long

Left the city just to save myself
Headed west, looking for that ocean breeze
It's down in Santa Monica, where the wind blows strong
And the saltwater washes you clean
Walking through the dollar store
Aisle five, head down, daydream, looking up and there you are
Hey girl, what you doing out here?
It's been a long time now

Go for coffee then we talk, talk
Reminiscing talk, talk
On and on, all about the things we missed
But always just behind the smile
You've got the same sad eyes

In your secret garden
There is no one
Who gets the key to your heart
Your poison flowers survive for hours
But now they're tearing you up
And we all change
We all decay
When our hearts are broken down

Take a weekend, take a week
I'm falling fast, I'm falling deep
Here we go, it's just like it was before
No matter what I do, or what I say
You'll never let me in
You've been working out in Hollywood
Easy money, fucked up job, back on the street
We both know it's no good
But every night you're heading there
You've got the same sad eyes

In your secret garden
There is no one
Who gets the key to your heart
Your poison flowers survive for hours
But now they're tearing you up
And we all change
We all decay
When our hearts are broken
We find new ways to face the day
When our hearts are broken down

So cold, so sickly twisted, beautiful
And time will not be kind
Your cancer grows so deep inside of you
And I cannot rewind

In your secret garden
There is no one
Who gets the key to your heart
Your poison flowers survive for hours
But now they're tearing you up
And we all change
We all decay
When our hearts are broken
And find a way to face the day
When our hearts are broken
And we all change
We all decay
When our hearts are broken down
When our hearts are broken down
Where we all get broken

When It Hurts lyrics - David Usher

On the wind
Take hold of the tiger's tail
It's tragic when first love dies
Religious when stars collide

When it hurts
Don't let go
Give up hope
As we're falling back down to the earth
Lightning fails
We all know
That no one can lead us back home

Open wide
Invite all the world inside
Never would, hard to take
The pleasure has been all mine

When it hurts
Don't let go
Give up hope
As we're falling back down to the earth
Lightning fails
We all know
That no one can lead us back home

When it hurts
Don't let go
Give up hope
As we're falling back down to the earth
Lightning fails
We all know
That no one can lead us back home

When it hurts
Don't let go
No one can lead us back home

Speak / Listen lyrics - David Usher

Speak, listen, I can't fight
I'm crumbling inside
These voices in my head
All lead me on
Speak, listen, I've got chills
These conversations kill me
I fall down at your feet
They lead me on

Take this love
Take this love
Take this love

Speak, listen, no more tears
There's nothing left to fear
We can't get back again
So please don't cry
Just open up your eyes
I'm not the man I used to be
We can't get back again, no

Take this love
Take this love
Take this love

Take this love
Take this love
Take this love

Take this love
Take this love
Take this love

Take this love
Take this love
Take this love

"Strange Birds" (2007)

The Music lyrics - David Usher

Baby, baby, don't be late
The world is ending I can't change
The way I feel about you now
New York is cold as ever
But still I go out every night
And hide myself among the lights
Bathe in all the pretty things the city brings
The bodies glisten and they shine
Like the stars we're born to die
And like these roses we all will fade

I'm counting the cars on the freeway below
Lost in the music all the foolishness of our lives
Speeding out of control
Lost in the music in the music

Baby, baby, please don't cry
Wipe the guilt out from your eyes
And leave your conscience on the bed
There's no one innocent here
In the mirror you'll find faith
Plastic flowers never fade but we all turn to grey

I'm counting the cars on the freeway below
Lost in the music all the foolishness of our lives
Speeding out of control
Lost in the music in the music

I'm counting the cars on the freeway below
Counting the lights
In the end of it all

I'm counting the cars on the freeway below
Lost in the music
in the music
in the music
in the music
in the music
in the music
in the music
