Wish 05:29
i wish for you a silent ocean i wish for you an easy breath if i asked you not to die would you give up like the rest? i wish for you the softest eyes to finally touch your heart i wish for you the softest landing just in case you fall apart the moon that puts its fist through your window finally feels the pain the light fades in your eyes and i know you can't explain i wish for you giant hands to catch those windblown stars to feel the heart of your soul to fill the hole in your heart i wish for you an angel's back to take you far away just reach out and steal the halo you can wear it everyday the moon that puts its fist through your window finally feels the pain the light fades in your eyes and i know you can't explain i know you can't explain i know you can't explain i know you can't explain i know you can't explain i wish for you a silent ocean i wish for you an easy breath if i asked you not to die would you give up like the rest? i wish for you the corners of the sky i wish for you softer air if i asked you for your pain would you share? the moon that puts its fist through your window finally feels the pain the light fades in your eyes and i know you can't explain

always in and out of happiness i'm getting dizzy it would be so easy to just care less and i just might now and so i fall to my nearest death but its never near enough and when i finally find my breath who cares heaven help us when this world hurts heaven help us just help me first just help me first nothing makes me feel so alive the way that fear does and every night is tomorrow night and i can't face it i dream of being everyone ahh, anyone now then i wake up to no one heaven help us when this world hurts heaven help us just help me first just help me first so every night i sit and cry then i count my blessings and then i hum my deepest thoughts but the tune's so boring and all i want is fade away but that's what sleep is for fade away, just fade away heaven help us when this world hurts heaven help us just help me first just help me first

sometimes when you close your eyes i want to open mine up wide and swallow you all up like heaven and keep you somewhere safe inside you know i even dream that you'll never leave like you used to be scared of the dark and turn on all the lights inside of me to keep from tripping into my heart and sometimes i'd show you the sun just burning a hole in our eyes and even though you told me that it was a star i didn't mind your dreaming lies you know i even think that my angel's gone i think you chased it away so i swallow you all up like heaven and save you for a rainy day you're the impossible you're the impossible you're the impossible too impossible for me

January 07:02
you are the snowfall and i'm the darkest tree that needs you in my arms so everyone will see that landscape love which waited for me to grow into my dreams like christmas lights on heavy nights you're there for me to pray for me you pray for me cos with your faith i'm saved and when they cut me down i'll think of you and if they burn me to keep warm i'll say it was for you only you you are the snowfall you can fall on me you are the snowfall fall on me

Crash 02:01
you say your life broke down again and fixing it is out of the question this time the last good kiss you ever had was years ago the last good kiss you ever had you say you want a brand new twilight the kind that promises something, something good you used to mean it when you said goodnight but now it all seems so bad hey hey hey hey

Halo 06:20
trip you with a smile catch you in a photograph i dream in black and white but this grey is all i have you’re my brilliant idea caught on the edge of my sleep you’re a secret i can tell and a rumor i can keep our love makes me sad the way that god cries for this world i baptized you in kisses but i never said a word i never said I would never said i can never said that i could even try to understand never said I would never said i can when the halo’s gone will i have reason? and when the reason’s gone will i be your saint? saint, all you need saved, as i bleed say, say a prayer for me you can stone me with roses as if my love was turning blue i’ve got a heart full of god and my eyes all full of you i never said i would never said i can never said that i could even try to understand never said i would never said i can when the halo’s gone will i have reason? and when the reason’s gone will i be your saint?

about

The Julies Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

The Julies were — and somehow are again — an American alternative/indie guitar band that mixes influences from ’80s post- punk and new wave with ’90s shoegaze, indie rock and britpop to create music that was, in the case of 1996’s Lovelife EP at least, singularly magical. ... more
