Can you see me there
I’m calling out your name
And if you see I’m scared
Well aren’t you glad you came
I’m knocking on your door
Why won’t you let me in
I know what all the waiting’s for
And it’s tearing at my skin
I’m waiting on a moment when you
Put your glass heart next to mine so I
Can feel them beating in time
Put your glass heart next to mine so I
Can feel them beating in time
Throwing questions to the wind
And they’re floating on the breeze
So if you take em in
Can you hold onto them please
Feel the hours ticking by
Try to catch them in my hand
Trace the sun across the sky
Count the pebbles in the sand
I’m waiting on a moment when you
Put your glass heart next to mine so I
Can feel them beating in time
Put your glass heart next to mine so I
Can feel them beating in time
I feel the weight is lifting
I see the world is shifting
The stars are shining brighter tonight
Put your glass heart next to mine so I
Can feel them beating in time
Put your glass heart next to mine so I
Can feel them beating in time
Put your glass heart next to mine so I
Can feel them beating in time
Put your glass heart next to mine so I
Can feel them beating in time

The bottle that sat on the shelf
Just opened it’s mouth
Been awhile since I seen ya
Now here’s to your health
There’s chaos inside ya
Afraid to go open the door
Just sank to the floor
There’s ghosts coming for ya
You know what they’re for
There’s chaos around ya
But soon you’ll be
Jet settin away with me
Yeah soon you’ll be
Jet settin, finally free
So talk a walk clear your head
Put your feet on the ground
Set your eyes to the sky
Make peace with sound
Of the chaos around ya
Cause your baby she’s sleeping upstairs
All alone with her dreams
She’s waiting to meet ya
Tear your heart at it’s seams
And free
The chaos inside ya
But soon you’ll be
Jet setting away with me
Yeah soon you’ll be
Jet settin, finally free
Do your best to be kind
Free your heart, let it shine
Light a fire inside ya
Let em know when they find you
Yeah you’ll be
Jet settin away with
Yeah you’ll be
Jet settin, finally free
Yeah you’ll be
Jet settin away with me
Yeah you’ll be
Jet settin, finally free

Everything’s starting to matter
Crawl up the hill to my head
Climb twenty steps just to fall down the ladder
So maybe I’ll just stay in bed
Everything’s coming up roses
The future’s gonna be something new
And while we are waiting we’re
Anticipating and wondering how we get through
So I’m gonna hold onto you
Yes I’m gonna hold onto you
Everything’s starting to close in
Our souls are working overtime
The space between my ears is feeling paper thing but
Our hearts are working out the rhyme
Everything’s coming up roses
The future’s gonna be something new
And while we are waiting we’re
Anticipating and wondering how we get through
So I’m gonna hold onto you
Yes I’m gonna hold onto you
I’m gonna hold onto you
Yes I’m gonna hold onto you

If you climb to the top of the tree
Breathe the air feel it whispering sweet
Get a taste, feeling wild and free
Would you come back home to me
Call me stupid you can call me a fool
I figured time was a bottomless poll
Now endless seconds are the secrets I seek
Would you come back home to me
So if you fly, fly
Away
Well that’s ok
Oh if you fly, fly
Away
We’ll meet some day
Lookin through old pictures I saw
You all dressed up to go to the ball
Taste the tears as they run off my cheek
Would you come back home to me
So if you fly (fly), fly (fly)
Away
Well that’s ok
Oh if you fly (fly), fly (fly)
Away
We’ll meet some day
I know that you
You don’t belong
Here on the ground
There’s every clue
You’re far too strong
For hanging round
So if you fly (fly), fly (fly)
Away
Well that’s ok
Oh if you fly (fly), fly (fly)
Away
We’ll meet some day

On a cold winter’s night my dear
Where I bottled up all my fear
Put em up on a shelf so high
Stack em up till they reach the sky
Can you just hold onto me
Don’t whisper nothin too sweet
You’re love is all that I need
Please lover be mine
Please lover be mine
All alone with my thoughts so long
Can’t tell which way is up or down
So bring the merry-go-round once more round
So my feet cannot touch the ground
Can you just hold onto me
Don’t whisper nothin too sweet
You’re love is all that I need
Please lover be mine
Please lover be mine
You pulled me from water so deep
So I’ll give you my everything
Your eyes bring me to my knees
Please lover be mine
Please lover be mine
Please lover be mine
Please lover be mine

Lies I told me
When my symptoms aren’t showing
My smile keeps glowing
While the fires that are inside keep on growing
Is anybody there
Does anybody even care
Is anybody home
I need you to pick the phone
Just say hello
How ya doin today
I wanna tell a lie but
I need to say that
I’m not, ok
I’m stuck in a city
Never sleeping, always keeping me on edge
And I try to scream out
It just echos in the chamber of my head
Is anybody there
Does anybody even care
Is anybody home
I need you to pick the phone
Just say hello
How ya doin today
I wanna tell a lie but
I need to say that
I’m not, ok
When everything is burnin
And the world keeps turning
They just turn the page
I want you to take me home
Tell me I’m not alone
Tell me it’s ok
That I’m not ok
Is anybody there
Does anybody even care
Is anybody home
I need you to pick the phone
Just say hello
How ya doin today
I wanna tell you lies but
I need to say that
I’m not
I’m not
Ok

If we can pretend
This is not the end
Maybe there is more
Than the world before
Struggling to be seen
A voice just echoing
Stand out on the edge
Make a final pledge
Move Through
Love New
Cause We Can Do Anything
If we can pretend
This is not the end
Maybe there is more
Than the world before
Raise your head up high
Scream your battlecry
For pasts that are dead and gone
And futures to be won
Be Light
Burn Bright
Cause We Can Do Anything
If we can pretend
This is not the end
Maybe there is more
Than the world before
Cause We Can Do Anything
If we can pretend
This is not the end
Maybe there is more
Than the world before

The Nineteen Twenty New York, New York
The Nineteen Twenty formed in early 2020 out of a need for connection. A conversation backstage at a theater about a songwriting collaboration was brought to life remotely by the COVID-19. Over 4 months, they wrote, recorded, and produced without ever being in the same room together, using the internet to create a sound that is a mix of both their unique musical styles and sensibilities. ... more
