Lyrics
Well I left my lungs on the side of the road
And I count ten ways to go
Ways to go
Which one leads to a better place I give up I don’t know
I don’t know
I get on all fours
Retching to the floor
I get on all fours
Seen all this before
I throw my head back
Just to scratch my back
I get hungry
Just to be me again
Well you made your way to the top of my mouth
A flick of my tongue
I spit you out
Spit you out
Its hard to think a little thing like that
Was making me sick
In pain I sit
Pain I sit
I get on all fours
Retching to the floor
I get on all fours
Seen all this before
I throw my head back
Just to scratch my back
I get hungry
Just to be me again
Be me again
Ten ways to go

The gallery

Lyrics
The memories you’ve made
In your head there displayed
Just like a gallery
Any time that you choose
You can walk through the walls
And see the gallery
Relive the times you’ve spent
Over and over again
No need to be patient
There’s no limitations
Where there used to be
I see the time, time
Eating up the seconds
It’s a fine line living a lie
It’s a strong bond
Keeping us all together
No questions to answer
For you
If there was a way
You could go back today
And change the gallery
What would you do
Would you break all the rules
Inside the gallery
Relive the times you’ve spent
Over and over again
Avoid situations
Bring no confrontation
Save some energy
I see the time, time
Eating up the seconds
It’s a fine line living a lie
It’s a strong bond
Keeping us all together
No questions to answer
For you
Not only for you
Not only for you

Lyrics
Hey neighbour
You left us dangling
For five long years where have you been
For all we knew we thought you dead
But here you are on my doorstep
I’m pleased you’ve come back your not alone
I’m pleased you’ve come back this is your home
The day you left
We heard a shot
Behind your door then you ran out
What ever is was that made you snap
Was out of ear shot was under wraps
I’m pleased you’ve come back your not alone
I’m pleased you’ve come back this is your home
Champagne
Break it out
Hey neighbour
When you were gone
I thought of you when I played are song
Now and then thought you’d return
Now here you are the fire burns
Champagne
Break it out

Lost people (in places)

Lyrics
And he does her favours
Keep safe from harm
But he feels a failure
Caught up by her charms
Lost people in places
I pass it to the side
Lost people in places
Only half as wide
And he brings her fast cars
And she eats sunflowers
And he’s washed illtempered
Brought in by her tide
Lost people in places
I pass it to the side
Lost people in places
Only half as wide
He tried to find it
Tried to feed it
But nothing came
He lacked the magic
Kind of tragic
What a shame
Couldn't fight it
Tried to hide it
No one came
Oh please somebody
Lost people in places
I pass it to the side
Lost people in places
Only half as wide

Lyrics
You really have nothing to talk about
You clearly have nothing to say
The world out your window
Displeases you
Your not weird
Its just the way you are
No sense of waste
Your pulling the weight
Your changing the way you are today
Your changing the way you are today
Your fooling yourself but no one else
Your really not happy where you are
Light headed like limbo
Not anywhere
Discover the wonder
Of being here
No sense of waste
Your pulling the weight
Your changing the way you are today
Your changing the way you are today
Your changing the way you are today
Your changing the way you are today
You’ve made your bed and now you have to lay
Your changing the way you are today

Lyrics
I lived to make you laugh
With you my other half
And my we’ve had good times
And ours will always shine
But I was not the one to say goodbye
And I was not the one wouldn’t try
So this time
I don’t blame myself
In dreams you do no harm
With me you were disarmed
And sleep my tangerine
And loose all that has been
But I was not the one to see us fail
And I was not the one who cut & bailed
So this time
I don’t blame myself
Always me that kept you safe
Always me that went your way
So this time
I don’t blame myself

Lyrics
Oh it’s a dark night
Above the street lights
under stars
You fall apart
Into the twilight you both crawl
Empty handed like a fool
What have you done
Lay down your guns
Making waves ten years to late
You called it a day
And its cutting me both ways
I see it from her side
I hear it from his
We’ve been tight since we were kids
If only tonight
Can you wait
Please don’t break.
Oh it’s a shame that you both knew
After all that we’ve been through
To be undone
Always your son
Making waves ten years to late
You called it a day
And its cutting me both ways
I see it from her side
I hear it from his
We’ve been tight since we were kids
If only tonight
Can you wait
Please don’t break.
Please don’t break
Please don’t break
Please don’t

Let down (by police)

Lyrics
Let down by the weak
Your let down so to speak
When its right out side your door
Will you tolerate much more
None of us are getting in too deep
And we say
Hey your telling us not to be safe
Your teaching us not to behave
Its easy just to follow in big steps
And hey your waiting for us to be brave
Your waiting for us to complain
Its easy just to follow in big steps
Let down every week
Your let down by police
When a bastard goes unscathed
Then its true the law should change
None of us are caring anymore
And I say
Hey your telling us not to be safe
Your teaching us not to behave
Its easy just to follow in big steps
And hey your waiting for us to be brave
Your waiting for us to complain
Its easy just to follow in big steps
So read and weep
Except defeat
They get away with it
None of are getting in too deep

Killing a phase
03:01

Lyrics
You said to me something that I just cant get out my head
Its quarter to eleven I’ve been mulling it over in bed
I hear your words of wisdom and there cutting to the chase
Wake up smelling flowers make the most of every day
In a way
Your killing a phase
Walking all you see are footsteps
There’s no reason to be that way
To be that way
Calling all you hear is nothing
There’s no reason to be dismayed
To be this way
You said this would happen now it has I start to believe
A fountain of emotions you’re a full on feeling machine
Your head has turned to jelly and its seen much better days
You try to make a difference make the most of every day
In a way
Your killing a phase
Walking all you see are footsteps
There’s no reason to be that way
To be that way
Calling all you hear is nothing
There’s no reason to be dismayed
To be this way
And I
See us going the distance in time
Oh and I
I aim high
You said to me something that I just can’t get out my head
Its quarter to 7 and I’m still here lying in bed.

Love creeps

Lyrics
He follows her and she follows him
Step out of your house the stalking begins
She takes it as far as far as it goes
Wont stop until the passion flows
They take the advice from a homeless man
A former shrink he has a plan
To regain their thirst their lust for life
They all commit semi suicide
Love creeps
Love blinds
Love warps your mind
Love creeps
Love binds
There all the time
She follows him and he follows her
The stalking orders been reversed
The sad comes back comes back around
They all still walk on shallow ground
Love creeps
Love blinds
Love warps your mind
Love creeps
Love binds
There all the time
Love creeps
Love blinds
Love warps your mind
Does crazy things to you and him
Love creeps
Love binds
There all the time
Never proclaim your secret name
Your name
Your name

Lyrics
Tip tap on the mat
Kitty cat stop your howling
You look like your lost, need a friend, I’m so inviting
You say
It’s a selfish reason to keep you
But I’ve been spending to much time on my own
Baby can we keep it
Baby can you hear
Run out side and bring the day to life
Embrace the light and reset your mind
You‘ve finally fallen
Your finally there
And maybe its alright
Alright
Dead rat on the mat
Kitty cat stop your winning
I think that a drink will calm your need for fighting
You say
It’s the way of mother nature
But I don’t know it seems almost kind of cruel
Baby can we keep it
Baby can you hear
Run out side and bring the day to life
Embrace the light and reset your mind
You‘ve finally fallen
Your finally there
And maybe its alright
I’ve been drifting now I’m homeward bound
Don’t trust the night it’ll let you down
You‘ve finally fallen
Your finally there
And maybe its alright
And maybe its alright
Alright
Tip tap on the mat kitty cat
Tip tap on the mat kitty cat

The trick of any day

Lyrics
You don’t have to be afraid
I know that you’ll be ok
Caught up in the weight
Of everything
Big white house
Little cat skinny mouse
Call for your best friend
Lie awake and wait for angels
You made us and broke the chain
Through memories we remain
Success in a way
Loved by all of us
Big blue eyes
Silver hair pretty smile
Call for your best friend
Lie awake and wait for angels
Better when your not
Knowing when you feel
Gets you through the night
Better when your not
Knowing when you feel
Remember you get happy you get wanted
And if your wanted you get happy
The trick of any day
Is knowing when you need
To turn inside yourself
Yourself
Yourself
Big white house
Little cat skinny mouse
Call for your best friend
Lie awake and wait for angels
Lie awake and wait for angels
Lie awake and wait for angels
