Katie Costello Lyrics
Lead Me Right lyrics - Katie Costello
Riding the Sunday tide
Feeling the heavy sigh
Of another week past
Without a photo to keep
My memories bleed to ink
And I’m feeling like a ghost
And I’m not going to wake up now
I’m not going to wake up now
I don’t want to give up now
I don’t need to give up now
I know my dreaming will always lead me right
And I’ve got nothing to show
For all the days gone so slow
My dreams are feeling far away
Drinking in the light
Pouring through the sky
I’m holding on to what feels right
And I’m not going to wake up now
I’m not going to wake up now
I don’t want to give up now
I don’t need to give up now
I know my dreaming will always lead me right
And I’m not going to wake up now
I’m not going to wake up now
I don’t want to give up now
I don’t need to give up now
I see where my heart was leading me all along
I’ll trust you
Follow your every beat
No you’ve never led me
No you’ve never led me
Away from the things I’ve tried to keep
I’m not going to wake up now
I’m not going to wake up now
I don’t want to give up now
I don’t need to give up now
I know my dreaming will always lead me right
I’m not going to wake up now
I’m not going to wake up now
I don’t want to give up now
I don’t need to give up now
I see where my heart was leading me all along
Feeling the heavy sigh
Of another week past
Without a photo to keep
My memories bleed to ink
And I’m feeling like a ghost
And I’m not going to wake up now
I’m not going to wake up now
I don’t want to give up now
I don’t need to give up now
I know my dreaming will always lead me right
And I’ve got nothing to show
For all the days gone so slow
My dreams are feeling far away
Drinking in the light
Pouring through the sky
I’m holding on to what feels right
And I’m not going to wake up now
I’m not going to wake up now
I don’t want to give up now
I don’t need to give up now
I know my dreaming will always lead me right
And I’m not going to wake up now
I’m not going to wake up now
I don’t want to give up now
I don’t need to give up now
I see where my heart was leading me all along
I’ll trust you
Follow your every beat
No you’ve never led me
No you’ve never led me
Away from the things I’ve tried to keep
I’m not going to wake up now
I’m not going to wake up now
I don’t want to give up now
I don’t need to give up now
I know my dreaming will always lead me right
I’m not going to wake up now
I’m not going to wake up now
I don’t want to give up now
I don’t need to give up now
I see where my heart was leading me all along
How Long lyrics - Katie Costello
I see you wondering these empty halls
Looking for something you never found inside at all
I see you running looking for fights
You’re always hunting your own shadow in the light
How long
Will it take to find your way back home
Tell me you’ll be somewhere
Tell me you’ll be something tonight
I know you’re hurting from years by yourself
Take this or leave it, everyone needs their something else
How long
Will it take to find your way back home
Tell me you’ll be somewhere
You’ll be something tonight
Tell me you’ll be something tonight
You’ll find your way back
How long
Will it take to find your way back home
Tell me you’ll be somewhere
You’ll be something tonight
Tell me you’ll be somewhere tonight
Tell me you’ll be somewhere tonight
Tell me you’ll be something tonight
Looking for something you never found inside at all
I see you running looking for fights
You’re always hunting your own shadow in the light
How long
Will it take to find your way back home
Tell me you’ll be somewhere
Tell me you’ll be something tonight
I know you’re hurting from years by yourself
Take this or leave it, everyone needs their something else
How long
Will it take to find your way back home
Tell me you’ll be somewhere
You’ll be something tonight
Tell me you’ll be something tonight
You’ll find your way back
How long
Will it take to find your way back home
Tell me you’ll be somewhere
You’ll be something tonight
Tell me you’ll be somewhere tonight
Tell me you’ll be somewhere tonight
Tell me you’ll be something tonight
Lay Low lyrics - Katie Costello
She looked at her life and it wasn’t perfect
She looked at her strife and it wasn’t worth it
Wasted the days away
Sitting from up above, she began to smile
Little green and brown squares for miles and miles
For miles and miles
She has always been away, somewhere sleepwalking
Lay low and find the truth far below the surface
Lay low and search for gold amidst the worst of it
Lay low, lay low
She ran through her life and the rush felt perfect
She ran through the years and the pain was worth it
Wasted all her fears, she has disappeared
She has always been away, some where sleepwalking
Lay low and find the truth far below the surface
Lay low and search for gold amidst the worst of it
Lay low, lay low
She looked at her strife and it wasn’t worth it
Wasted the days away
Sitting from up above, she began to smile
Little green and brown squares for miles and miles
For miles and miles
She has always been away, somewhere sleepwalking
Lay low and find the truth far below the surface
Lay low and search for gold amidst the worst of it
Lay low, lay low
She ran through her life and the rush felt perfect
She ran through the years and the pain was worth it
Wasted all her fears, she has disappeared
She has always been away, some where sleepwalking
Lay low and find the truth far below the surface
Lay low and search for gold amidst the worst of it
Lay low, lay low
Fireflies lyrics - Katie Costello
Didn’t think I’d be the last one
Didn’t know I’d see the story end
Didn’t think the earth was made of paper
But now I’m standing in a mess of shreds
How can I keep on
When everything is so far gone
When there’s nothing left to find or figure out
Planets float in space like fireflies in doubt
Now the tides are turning
And I’m the only one at sea
Didn’t think the rumors could be something
Didn’t know the earth would be scorched to the bone
Didn’t think my life was worth living
But now I’m fighting for one last moment to hold
How can I keep on
When everyone is so far gone
When there’s nothing left to find or figure out
Planets float in space like fireflies in doubt
When there’s nothing left to find or figure out
Planets float in space like fireflies in doubt
Now the tides are turning
And I’m the only one at sea
It’s just me
Everything Has Its Way lyrics
Looking for the line that divides the earth in two
The seam is in the ground, it goes down to the roots
We all come from the same place but that’s not the way it ends
Looking for the thread that started in our heads
Everything has its way my friend
Everything has its way again
Finding missing stones that will ease the river bed
The weight is in your hands, there’s weight in what is said
Take away the glass and there’s a window to the wind
Take away the night and there’s a day without an end
Everything has its way my friend
Everything has its way again
Everything has its way my friend
Everything has its way again
And we’re going and we’re moving with the wind
There’s no stopping once the world takes its spin
And we’re going and we’re moving with the wind
There’s no stopping once the world takes its spin
Everything has its way my friend
Everything has its way again
Take away the moon and the sun won’t seem to shine
Take away the beat and the heart can’t be defined
Cassette Tape lyrics - Katie Costello
I hate talking and I hate walking next to someone I don't know
Someone I don't know
I hate pretending to keep up this friend thing
When I have enough friends and I'd rather be at home
Things would be much easier
And it would really save some time
If you knew my favorite color
And my favorite kind of pie
I wish there was a social excuse to make you a cassette tape
I'd teach you all about my life from side B to side A
Fast forward, rewind...Whenever or never mind
I hate been picky but right now you don't get me
But in time I think you will and I know you won't until
You listen very closely to the tape and mostly
You will see how I've become someone I hope you'll know and love
Things would be much easier
And it would really save some time
If you knew my favorite color
And my favorite kind of pie
I wish there was a social excuse to make you a cassette tape
I'd teach you all about my life from side B to side A
Fast forward, rewind...Whenever or never mind
My good friends know that I've never tried a boysenberry
My good friends know that in the wintertime my legs are hairy
My good friends know that I never understood chemistry
My good friends know that I never date people who know less than me
But you don't know and we're not getting any younger
But you don't know and telling you would just take longer
I wish there was a social excuse to make you a cassette tape
I'd teach you all about my life from side B to side A
Fast forward, rewind...Whenever or never mind
Someone I don't know
I hate pretending to keep up this friend thing
When I have enough friends and I'd rather be at home
Things would be much easier
And it would really save some time
If you knew my favorite color
And my favorite kind of pie
I wish there was a social excuse to make you a cassette tape
I'd teach you all about my life from side B to side A
Fast forward, rewind...Whenever or never mind
I hate been picky but right now you don't get me
But in time I think you will and I know you won't until
You listen very closely to the tape and mostly
You will see how I've become someone I hope you'll know and love
Things would be much easier
And it would really save some time
If you knew my favorite color
And my favorite kind of pie
I wish there was a social excuse to make you a cassette tape
I'd teach you all about my life from side B to side A
Fast forward, rewind...Whenever or never mind
My good friends know that I've never tried a boysenberry
My good friends know that in the wintertime my legs are hairy
My good friends know that I never understood chemistry
My good friends know that I never date people who know less than me
But you don't know and we're not getting any younger
But you don't know and telling you would just take longer
I wish there was a social excuse to make you a cassette tape
I'd teach you all about my life from side B to side A
Fast forward, rewind...Whenever or never mind
Ashes Ashes lyrics - Katie Costello
The sun is bleeding and the ash is snowing
In the distance the fire is growing
The trees are shrinking and your heart is sinking
Yet you've never felt more alive
Bloody sunset you remind me of when the clouds hung in fear
And when I didn't know I could be the very same person I want to be
With the sun as red as it wants to be
The smoke is all consuming, the air of sadness looming
Orange and red lick up the sky
Your footprints pick up dust mites and you might not always feel right
Yet you know you're alive
Bloody sunset you remind me of when the clouds hung in fear
And when I didn't know I could be the very same person I want to be
With the sun as red as it wants to be
Ashes, ashes we fall and float away
Ashes, ashes come take my fears away
Ashes, ashes we fall and float away
Ashes, ashes come take my fears away
Bloody sunset you remind me of when the clouds hung in fear
And when I didn't know I could be the very same person I want to be
With the sun as red as it wants to be
Ashes, ashes we fall and float away
Ashes, ashes you've taken my fears away
Ashes, Ashes you're but a memory
Of that not-so-gray day
In the distance the fire is growing
The trees are shrinking and your heart is sinking
Yet you've never felt more alive
Bloody sunset you remind me of when the clouds hung in fear
And when I didn't know I could be the very same person I want to be
With the sun as red as it wants to be
The smoke is all consuming, the air of sadness looming
Orange and red lick up the sky
Your footprints pick up dust mites and you might not always feel right
Yet you know you're alive
Bloody sunset you remind me of when the clouds hung in fear
And when I didn't know I could be the very same person I want to be
With the sun as red as it wants to be
Ashes, ashes we fall and float away
Ashes, ashes come take my fears away
Ashes, ashes we fall and float away
Ashes, ashes come take my fears away
Bloody sunset you remind me of when the clouds hung in fear
And when I didn't know I could be the very same person I want to be
With the sun as red as it wants to be
Ashes, ashes we fall and float away
Ashes, ashes you've taken my fears away
Ashes, Ashes you're but a memory
Of that not-so-gray day
After Dark lyrics - Katie Costello
Writing a letter to you like you're a foreign pen pal
Talking to you like I've never not known you
Smiling at you with my heart nailed shut
Time-induced-healing has not been enough
I swear you'd always need me
I swear you'd always see me
As the same blood that runs through your veins
Don't come looking for me after dark
I cannot bear to see your footsteps leading nowhere
Roots of the ancient tree have changed
I can't make out your face and what you're saying sounds the same
Hanging photo examples of golden moments
Your memory left in pages I wrote things down
Fizzy telephone calls generous to silence
Empty spaces and forgotten traces of you
I swear you'd always need me
I swear you'd always see me
As the same blood that runs through your veins
Don't come looking for me after dark
I cannot bear to see your footsteps leading nowhere
Roots of the ancient tree have changed
I can't make out your face and what you're saying sounds the same
You're not dead to me because you'll never be
You're as close to gone as distance will allow
Though that might seem fine, you're gone all the time
Don't come looking for me after dark
I cannot bear to see your footsteps leading nowhere
Roots of the family tree are gone
It seems so wrong but I can't force someone to change
Don't come looking for me after dark
Don't come looking for me after dark
Don't come looking for me after dark
Talking to you like I've never not known you
Smiling at you with my heart nailed shut
Time-induced-healing has not been enough
I swear you'd always need me
I swear you'd always see me
As the same blood that runs through your veins
Don't come looking for me after dark
I cannot bear to see your footsteps leading nowhere
Roots of the ancient tree have changed
I can't make out your face and what you're saying sounds the same
Hanging photo examples of golden moments
Your memory left in pages I wrote things down
Fizzy telephone calls generous to silence
Empty spaces and forgotten traces of you
I swear you'd always need me
I swear you'd always see me
As the same blood that runs through your veins
Don't come looking for me after dark
I cannot bear to see your footsteps leading nowhere
Roots of the ancient tree have changed
I can't make out your face and what you're saying sounds the same
You're not dead to me because you'll never be
You're as close to gone as distance will allow
Though that might seem fine, you're gone all the time
Don't come looking for me after dark
I cannot bear to see your footsteps leading nowhere
Roots of the family tree are gone
It seems so wrong but I can't force someone to change
Don't come looking for me after dark
Don't come looking for me after dark
Don't come looking for me after dark
No Shelter lyrics - Katie Costello
Where do we lose ourselves in the winter months?
Where do we find ourselves when there's no shelter for us?
How can we cry when there's no way to make amends?
How can we fight when there's no lesson in the end?
You just tell yourself there's something to be found
Beneath that molten rock buried deep underground
When the cold is coming, you're stuck in the shade
And there's no one left to blame
Where do we go when all the birds have gone north?
Where do we stay when the snow has taken over us?
How can we scream when there's no way to make amends?
How can we lie when there's no lesson in the end?
You just tell yourself there's something to be found
Beneath that molten rock buried deep underground
When the cold is coming, you're stuck in the shade
And there's no one left to blame
I'm going somewhere where I know I can stay
I'm going somewhere where I feel a better, a better change
You just tell yourself there's something to be found
Beneath that molten rock buried deep underground
When the cold is coming, you're stuck in the shade
Though there's no one else around
Though there's no one else around
Though there's no one else around
Where do we find ourselves when there's no shelter for us?
How can we cry when there's no way to make amends?
How can we fight when there's no lesson in the end?
You just tell yourself there's something to be found
Beneath that molten rock buried deep underground
When the cold is coming, you're stuck in the shade
And there's no one left to blame
Where do we go when all the birds have gone north?
Where do we stay when the snow has taken over us?
How can we scream when there's no way to make amends?
How can we lie when there's no lesson in the end?
You just tell yourself there's something to be found
Beneath that molten rock buried deep underground
When the cold is coming, you're stuck in the shade
And there's no one left to blame
I'm going somewhere where I know I can stay
I'm going somewhere where I feel a better, a better change
You just tell yourself there's something to be found
Beneath that molten rock buried deep underground
When the cold is coming, you're stuck in the shade
Though there's no one else around
Though there's no one else around
Though there's no one else around
Despite Time lyrics - Katie Costello
Will we ever really reach the moon?
Will we ever really march to the seashore?
Will we ever really break down walls that feel wrong?
Will we ever really come to terms with those bombs?
It's hard to say
Our past might have never come
The way it seems today, the way it seems today
Everything seems so far away when
Nothing appears the way it did then
Discover a photo of the night sky
Thankfully the stars do align
Despite time
Will we ever really befriend our demons?
Will we ever really pick apart the Milky Way?
Will we ever really sky-scrape toward heaven?
Will we ever really fight to forbid fear?
It's hard to say
Our past might have never come
The way it seems today, the way it seems today
Everything seems so far away when
Nothing appears the way it did then
Discover a photo of the night sky
Thankfully the stars do align
Despite time
Climbing through the ocean
Nothing can be held on to
Navigating skywards
Stars do not hold anchors
Nothing left to conquer
We are all that can see blue
We are all that can feel blue
Will we ever really leave the earth and reach the moon?
Will we ever really march to the seashore?
Will we ever really break down walls that feel wrong?
Will we ever really come to terms with those bombs?
It's hard to say
Our past might have never come
The way it seems today, the way it seems today
Everything seems so far away when
Nothing appears the way it did then
Discover a photo of the night sky
Thankfully the stars do align
Despite time
Will we ever really befriend our demons?
Will we ever really pick apart the Milky Way?
Will we ever really sky-scrape toward heaven?
Will we ever really fight to forbid fear?
It's hard to say
Our past might have never come
The way it seems today, the way it seems today
Everything seems so far away when
Nothing appears the way it did then
Discover a photo of the night sky
Thankfully the stars do align
Despite time
Climbing through the ocean
Nothing can be held on to
Navigating skywards
Stars do not hold anchors
Nothing left to conquer
We are all that can see blue
We are all that can feel blue
Will we ever really leave the earth and reach the moon?
Out Of Our Minds lyrics - Katie Costello
I can't go to sleep tonight
Because the thought of darkness makes me feel alive
I can't find a way to dream
When I'm thinking about everything
I think I'll be happier if I turn my brain off
Until the morning stirs
I think I will find a day
When all this noise will help me sink away
My mind is running away with my sleep tonight
My mind is running away with my sleep tonight
Let's get out of our minds today
And take a little time to look at the stars and the moon above
Wishing someone like you
Was staring at them too
I can see my shadowed mirrors
Reflecting all my deepest darkest fears
I think home will fix this mess
A bed of my own makes it worth the stress
My mind is running away with my sleep tonight
My mind is running away with my sleep tonight
Let's get out of our minds today
And take a little time to look at the stars and the moon above
Wishing someone like you
Was staring at them too
It's a long shot to not think that we're alone
But it's not far off to know someone else is here and there and home
It's a long shot to not think that we're alone
But it's not far off to know someone else is here and there and home
Let's get out of our minds today
And take a little time to look at the stars and the moon above
Wishing someone like you
Was staring at them too
Fading Lately lyrics - Katie Costello
I've been finding reasons
To tell myself that I'm not really here or there much
I've been making scrapbooks
Of all the places I would like to go when I'm home
And I've got ways to disappear
And now I can't find my way out of here
Am I really here?
I don't know where I've been lately
All I see is myself fading
I don't know who I've been lately
All I see is this place fading
I've been playing dress up
Trying to find a sweater that makes sense, given the climate
I've been wearing glasses
To let myself see the blurry mess, that I've yet to relate with
And I've got ways to disappear
And now I can't find my way out of here
Am I really here?
I don't know where I've been lately
All I see is myself fading
I don't know who I've been lately
All I see is this place fading
I just need to watch some TV
To get a better sense of what I shouldn't be
I didn't use breadcrumbs and now I'm stuck in this place
I left my compass at home and now I can't find my way
I just didn't, I just need, and now I can't find my way
I don't know where I've been lately
Everything has changed vaguely
I don't know who I've been lately
All I see is this place fading
I don't know where I've been lately
All I see is myself fading
To tell myself that I'm not really here or there much
I've been making scrapbooks
Of all the places I would like to go when I'm home
And I've got ways to disappear
And now I can't find my way out of here
Am I really here?
I don't know where I've been lately
All I see is myself fading
I don't know who I've been lately
All I see is this place fading
I've been playing dress up
Trying to find a sweater that makes sense, given the climate
I've been wearing glasses
To let myself see the blurry mess, that I've yet to relate with
And I've got ways to disappear
And now I can't find my way out of here
Am I really here?
I don't know where I've been lately
All I see is myself fading
I don't know who I've been lately
All I see is this place fading
I just need to watch some TV
To get a better sense of what I shouldn't be
I didn't use breadcrumbs and now I'm stuck in this place
I left my compass at home and now I can't find my way
I just didn't, I just need, and now I can't find my way
I don't know where I've been lately
Everything has changed vaguely
I don't know who I've been lately
All I see is this place fading
I don't know where I've been lately
All I see is myself fading
Dig A Hole lyrics - Katie Costello
I'm beginning to feel like an empty shell
With nothing to embrace and nothing to expel
I'm beginning to feel like a very crumbly street
With nowhere to go and no place for you feet
I just don't know anymore
I just don't know
Isn't this house really a box?
Isn't this life really a hole?
In this day to day feeling of static-fearful-thinking,
Am I really alone?
So let's dig a hole where we can build a home,
Where the previous feeling of static-fearful-thinking
Can leave us all alone
I'm beginning to feel like a very wounded heart
Not because of lost love but because it's career has yet to start
I'm beginning to feel like a paralyzed pendulum
Hanging like a body with no momentum
I just don't know anymore
I just don't know
Isn't this house really a box?
Isn't this life really a hole?
In this day to day feeling of static-fearful-thinking,
Am I really alone?
So let's dig a hole where we can build a home,
Where the previous feeling of static-fearful-thinking
Can leave us all alone
I will sleep tonight
I'll lay my head down and tell myself goodnight
I will be alright
Because even nightmares can't keep me up all night
Isn't this house really a box?
Isn't this life really a hole?
In this day to day feeling of static-fearful-thinking,
Am I really alone?
So let's dig a hole where we can build a home,
Where the previous feeling of static-fearful-thinking
Can leave us all alone
I'm beginning to feel like
I just don't know anymore
With nothing to embrace and nothing to expel
I'm beginning to feel like a very crumbly street
With nowhere to go and no place for you feet
I just don't know anymore
I just don't know
Isn't this house really a box?
Isn't this life really a hole?
In this day to day feeling of static-fearful-thinking,
Am I really alone?
So let's dig a hole where we can build a home,
Where the previous feeling of static-fearful-thinking
Can leave us all alone
I'm beginning to feel like a very wounded heart
Not because of lost love but because it's career has yet to start
I'm beginning to feel like a paralyzed pendulum
Hanging like a body with no momentum
I just don't know anymore
I just don't know
Isn't this house really a box?
Isn't this life really a hole?
In this day to day feeling of static-fearful-thinking,
Am I really alone?
So let's dig a hole where we can build a home,
Where the previous feeling of static-fearful-thinking
Can leave us all alone
I will sleep tonight
I'll lay my head down and tell myself goodnight
I will be alright
Because even nightmares can't keep me up all night
Isn't this house really a box?
Isn't this life really a hole?
In this day to day feeling of static-fearful-thinking,
Am I really alone?
So let's dig a hole where we can build a home,
Where the previous feeling of static-fearful-thinking
Can leave us all alone
I'm beginning to feel like
I just don't know anymore
