THE HARDWARE EP

The Devil Walks In The Sand
The sun shines red Over the sand Psycho shutter speed Red eye red eye Buried forgotten Left to the dust Instructions are haywire Unearth the voyeur He's in here with me Gets him out of my head Eyes plugged in to my veins The devil walks in the sand See all we see And touch all we breathe Feel his dreams through us Living the recess Woken in hunger Electron alarm Uncle Sam is spared The carrion keeper He's in here with me Gets him out of my head Eyes plugged in to my veins The devil walks in the sand (She knows his name) (She knows his name) (She knows his name) The devil treads the sand (She knows his name) Stopping all she can (She knows his name) The devil treads the sand (She knows his name) Stopping all she can He's in here with me Gets him out of my head Eyes plugged in to my veins The devil walks in the sand He's in here with me Gets him out of my head Eyes plugged in to my veins The devil walks in the sand

Safe Enough Distance Away
Sick little butterfly, I'll mend your wings, But I'm scared I might break them, they're delicate things Keep an armslength, there's a monster in me That I have trouble controlling occasionally, om my love Heaven knows I made a fool of myself A slick in the ocean for everyone else to drink and the rest of the tears that you cry The look on your face as you see me inside How could you think I could be good for you? When all I destroy is the best I can do At the of the day it's a shame that I search The reason I'll go is that I love you too much I thought you were running safe enough distance away To think you were running safe enough distance away I thought you were running safe enough distance away To think you were running safe enough distance away

Sister Soul
Heaven made a killing Well they're an angel more And we're an angel less Fate had made arrangements Played a hand again Now the one I love's a mess Tell me mother when you cry Can she hear your sorrow sigh? Sister sleeping in the breeze You are all she ever sees Laid to rest in tears Rained in time for May But a year's not time enough If she falls I'll catch her And though I may be weak I will hold her up with love Tell me mother when you cry Can she hear your sorrow sigh? Sister sleeping in the breeze You are all she ever sees Tell me mother when you cry Can she hear your sorrow sigh? Sister sleeping in the breeze You are all she ever sees

The Warfare EP

Panzer Attack
Short sleeved shitkicking animals Lining me up It's all over their face Here's a new chicken shit angel eyed boy With a face to rip open all night Step up to the line boys Cover your eyes as they fire their guns The friday night abattoir spills out into... The streets Here comes the panzer attack This boy's taking the easy way out Cos there's nothing like a midnight run Don't you tell me not to hide You've got to grit your teeth And try to keep them too Curled up in a can They don't know where i am I'll spend the night in here Cowered in the trash till 4 am You missed another one Here comes the panzer attack...

I'll Still Write
I feel fine I think I'm on the mend Things are looking up these days Since you came So please don't cry You know it's not your style You just do this kind of thing Do you now I won't let this fail So please don't bail There's pitfalls in bed But either way I meant what I said Can't stop now But trying to cut down We'll sit and drink till we don't make Any sense Cos that's what I do You know I don't mean it It's just the way I am Weak and easy I won't let this fail So please don't bail There's pitfalls in bed But either way I meant what I said But I'll still write though Even if you do go

Way Out West

Way Out West
It's all right to wait your turn Watching as the bridges burn So long, good luck Promise me you'll keep my name Take good care I know you'll be fine You always came back better now All hail to myself Let's see if we can work as one This lines, not right This ship crashed before its time Take good care I know you'll be fine You always came back better now You're looking good I'm happy for you now You're looking real good Such a shame [In the world of mules there are no rules In the world of mules there are no rules In the world of mules there are no rules In the world of mules there are no rules There are no rules There are no rules There are no rules There are no rules] I hope your careful when you go to sleep Won't know what hits you come the morning Cos it kicks your ass in silence Every ones too cold to sit and figure you out Your finger twigs all sick and yellow It's scaring me to let you know I'm giving you the chance to see just what The future holds for you because I've got this funny sense of guilt Cos even though I hope that this all happens I know better than to cry for you I never wanted you to go

Let's Kill Music

Let's Kill Music
We dare you to mean a single word you say Feel free if you've time to try and change our minds You might wanna duck before you lose your head It seems we're the ones who's got the guts to bleed It's not number one who will come out alive It's the freak in the corner with his eyes on fire Let's kill music before it kills us all

My Darling (Nasty Angel)
Candlelight at the night Tears before bedtime Guess you'll never know How sick it feel I'm scared of you When you're not in my arms Raise your hands Embrace the moon I'm scared of you When you're not in my arms Take a look at your friends As they cut their throats Please don't hurt me again Rather stare at the wall Please don't hurt me again All I've done is love you I don't want you here When you've got the guts Take a look at your friends As they cut their throats Please don't hurt me again Rather stare at the wall Please don't hurt me again All I've done is love you

Film-Maker
This movie would've killed us It would've made a mess I'd have lit the fires but i'd have pulled you out Take a shot from every angle I'd have shot you down I'd have made you look fucking beautiful Don't think cos you can't see me that i'm not watching He got leather He got car Well me got channels on cctv This movie would've killed us We'd have cut a deal I'd have set the traps but i'd have pulled you out Lend a hand make all the right moves I'd have helped you out I'd have made it perfect just for you This movie would've killed us But now it's turned to shit And it's because of you But hey, you didn't want to make it Instead you made it with him Guess i just didn't make the final cut Yeah this movie's gonna kill me But it'll kill you first We could've made it you but oh, it's just too late now I'd have made us a killer movie

Been Training Dogs
Been training dogs again To bite your little princess And making sure they make a scene Running errands all the way Communicate in codes You've just gotta make the in-roads (Holding on) to what you've got (Making plans) just to stay alive (Doing time) oh you bet you will (I'm doing mine) by the side of the road (Making out) cos i'm making good (What it's all about) like i said i would (Then you realise) cos it's in my eyes Well, look who's laughing now We take pride in our work The key's the execution And, hey that's what we had in mind But we're not just having fun I wouldn't wanna be ya Cos we're drawing blood if we see ya And we're not afraid to use animals Or anything else that'll tear itself a hole Yeah we'll be just like dumb fucking animals If that's the kind of game you wanna play

Safe Enough Distance
Sick little butterfly, I'll mend your wings, But I'm scared I might break them, they're delicate things Keep an armslength, there's a monster in me That I have trouble controlling occasionally, om my love Heaven knows I made a fool of myself A slick in the ocean for everyone else to drink and the rest of the tears that you cry The look on your face as you see me inside How could you think I could be good for you? When all I destroy is the best I can do At the of the day it's a shame that I search The reason I'll go is that I love you too much I thought you were running safe enough distance away To think you were running safe enough distance away I thought you were running safe enough distance away To think you were running safe enough distance away

Screwdriver Song
Won't you please, before you leave Promise me you'll take my side? It's all I have to give Heaven knows it's all I've got To be blind to the world is worth the loss But i will see you still From time to time Goodbye old friend, Sleep tight, sweet dreams Fall on time, my friend Nothing can hurt you on your own We'll share a drink in time While the shadow chasers have gone

See This Through And Leave

Did You Miss Me?
Did you miss me? I bet you did Did you miss me? And what I did? How's it going kid, Hows the love life, Not good? Good Im back now Back with what I got But its not for sale Its for someone else Someone beautiful Someone who loves Not you She screams my name Yeah she makes me rise With the look in her eyes that you will never give And she knows just how to hit the spot She gives it all shes got Then shit I blow my top And we kiss And we writhe And this is everything I miss with you And no matter how hard you try With each and every lie You'll never scream my name She can scream my name

Who Needs Enemies?
My oh my, i'm seeing the potential Lets just see what we can do First we'll take you down back to the meathouse And then you'll hold their hands again I know tricks that you could only dream of Looks like it's your lucky day A killer key change Is all you'll ever need But who needs enemies When you've got friends Now your hands are tied And who needs accidents When you've got me Now i'm on your side Now lets try and teach you how to mingle Then we'll teach you how to kill Lies will always be your best of best friends Never be alone again A killer key change Is all you'll ever need All these animals That you call friends Now they're on their knees Man, you tricked 'em all You played the fool So damn easy to please I made my name in function rooms And drifting through the walls Come on let me teach you boy Teach you 'bout it all But who needs enemies When you've got friends Now your hands are tied And who needs accidents When you've got me Now i'm on your side All these animals That you call friends Now they're on their knees Man, you tricked 'em all You played the fool So damn easy to please

Amber
Remember the time i couldn't speak Everybody heard The pin didn't drop, it came and crashed down Then there was the time i couldn't walk Everybody laughed So entertaining was this breakdown Turn and face the wall I'm only drinking Eyes to the floor I'm merely sinking Then there was the time i couldn't see Blind as a bat for drink and easy laughs A terrible time But keep it in mind You can't tell your friends man cos this shit is mine Turn and face the wall I'm only drinking Eyes to the floor I'm merely sinking So leave me alone And why does it have to get like this? It always seems to get like this Well i never meant to get like this Every night

Digital Observations
I guess i'm not the kind of boy Who's seen it all before Anymore I thought i'd figured out the way To see the sunny side Of the day Making plans, making good And keep on asking on Could it be so good I'll have to sit and calculate Think myself a mess For the best It seems i have to complicate All the thing i see Lucky me And when you all go out to play I'll keep an eye on you For a clue Cos i won't take it anymore Being the jealous one In the sun And when i come and see the light Heaven help you all At the sight Cos fireworks and movie screens Can't prepare you all For the scene All my plans making good I can't stop thinking now it'll be so good Cos now it seems I'm all the rage Such a tender heart Such and early age Now tell me where the hell were you When i was the only one Who couldn't see the sun All my plans making good I can't stop thinking now It could be so good?

Let's Kill Music
We dare you to mean a single word you say Feel free if you've time to try and change our minds You might wanna duck before you lose your head It seems we're the ones who's got the guts to bleed It's not number one who will come out alive It's the freak in the corner with his eyes on fire Let's kill music before it kills us all

The Lake
Hey you Over there Won't you help a stranger That's a sorry sight my friend It's not me To make a fuss It's just that the water's cold And i can't feel my legs Help me out Don't let me drown in here Can't you see I'm gonna die in here Please excuse That outburst I'm a little scared I don't know what came over me What's wrong Don't close your eyes I don't want to hurt you I just need a little help Help me out Don't let me drown in here Can't you see I'm gonna die in here Swim he says Why do you say these things One last chance Just get me out of here

Murder Song
As he sits on the moor With his new found friend Who had shown him the way To bow out at the end With a dignity only A murder can bring With sweet violation That versatile thing Please believe me when i say This is how it has to end This is easy on us all Well easier than other ways Sleep is all i ask of you Sleep and not to wake again See this through and leave my friend Tears will come and i will end While i hope you all miss me And weep at my grave I imagine you'll pray some And give hope to the brave To the ones who have loved me And cared for me And who die when i tell them I just had to go Please believe me when i say This is how it has to end This is easy on us all Well easier than other ways Sleep is all i ask of you Sleep and not to wake again See this through and leave my friend Tears will come and i will end

Before The Moor
Last night I dreamt my teeth were crumbling I've had this dream before I cried just like a little girl I didn't see that you were there How's My Hair? I have to look up today If today is gonna be my last If today is gonna be my last Stop the car, this isn't funny Take me home I've changed my mind I've never seen dreams like this before Why the hell is this so dark? How's My Hair? I have to look up today If today is gonna be my last If today is gonna be my last

One Quick Fix
Please come out I’d really like to see you I don’t mind But do you really want me to tonight? Why should you make friends? Standing at the window Now the world can see you Why do you tease them so? Now it is too light I wait by your apartment Watch the world go by ‘Til you make an appearance Please come out I’d really like to see you I don’t mind But I know you really want me to tonight

Lapitu (Bedtime Story)
As I lie with you Hear your request "Tell me a tale To send me to sleep Just give me peace from the secrets I keep" Alone on an airship Away in the clouds Saw it on TV Barely a child I know it exists I just can’t find the fall Its bronze was all stale Seven feet tall Gardener cared for the greenery And all I can do Is sing this to you Silently hoping that you will remain So I may sing stories to you once again Its all I remember The Japanese dream A boy and a girl who fell from the sky He licks the wounds, wipes the tears from her eyes She wept and cried for those who had died in the fall But all they may do Is just stick together Sit this one out, Aching as ever Sharks fly, the night sky, the airship is just out of reach Just see it through It won’t last forever Just keep the light and the tale that I told And all of the dreams you and I stand to fall Naked and tired I guess I’ll be fine All that I ask is don’t cut the line just yet

Not Quite Enough
when the next breath i take is the one that fixes me the colours you see may put doubt in your eyes such beautiful shades what's gone before will make you laugh i hope it makes you laugh it's not quite enough to begin to cry but more than enough to destroy all the things i've ever fallen in and out of love with please wish i did please wish i did it will never be better in the morning and no matter how hard you try this will kill me it's not quite enough to begin to cry but more than enough to destroy all the things i've ever fallen in and out of love with please wish i did

Promises Promises

Promises Promises
It's got me going inside I think it's happening again I think there's gonna be some action Coz you got me going inside You got me where you want me Sit down and talk to me Well i just hope you're happy With your snake skin dead bodies evening all Well just go go back to your bright lights You made promises you couldn't keep Sicking up rag doll more than you know Just keep your mouth shut you got no mind to blow You celebrate things you celebrate things forget and me and just desecrate everything Oh you messed it up good yeah this kid's just a joke It's got me going inside I think it's happening again I think there's gonna be some action Coz you got me going inside You got me where you want me Sit down and talk to me Well i just hope you're happy With your snake skin dead bodies evening all Well just go go back to your bright lights You made promises you couldn't keep Sicking up rag doll more than you know Just keep your mouth shut you got no mind to blow Baby can't shoot straight But you gotta shoot straight There's so many friends to make Gotta take blows it's the way that you grow Baby can't shoot straight There's so many friends to make Gotta take blows it's the way that you grow Don't need to be seen Just gotta get yourself known

On Off On
Fondness never played a role like this They knew the bruises start to show Ducking shells was never my idea Tried, but I stopped trying Sucking hard for sympathy We've got treatment, we've got city slick Messages on the hush-hush Machines can't work, this thing's got skin Magazine and liars Hooks and chains just to tear you down We hold on so tight But we already know You flicker, sparkle You twinkle and gleam All bitter and clean On. Off. On. We're dull and stupid and we're caged in glass Keeping tallies, Charts and graphs So set your hands alight and watch them fly We can keep on talking If you can keep on telling lies We hold on so tight But we already know You flicker, sparkle You twinkle and gleam All bitter and clean We fly high our flags by night All bored and shredded up We're keeping you on track We keep you alive We're just at your side On. Off. On. The cable's frayed, the timber's burned....

I Know
I know you're finding it hard to get your own back But you were sullen at the weekend And I was sad until You were waiting for the half-time getaway Someone couldn't wait to get their own back We were dealing at the last-chance table How does it feels to get your own back? I know you're finding it hard to keep your head up But we were trouble after midnight After a drink or two I know you're making sense I guess its for the best Get it off your chest don't call it all off We did all we could but things just got away Nothing left to say but call it all off Maybe things will change but we will stay the same Just deal with the pain and hang on in there Ok so it wasn't perfect but how it shone Now that its gone its left a hole there

Resident Writer
(No one helped me fall) You'll never guess who I just saw He's all in black and now his hair's gone For added effect (No one helped me fall) Trying to fool the sin again He's tried and played the role a few times You just have to laugh When all of this is said and done When you cracked heads and got it on Me? I'm where you found me at the start. When you've grown out of this machine Remember how I never seem to see life For sleeping in the dark (No one helped us all) Now who the hell is here to say That he could make a go on his own? With his latest fan (No one helped us all) Never got the feeling back Never got the time to write home Or make us happy I was always led to believe That there'd be a way to pack up and leave But why can't we be lonely? Playful and free? I've taken the test and failed with ease When all of this is said and done When you cracked heads and got it on Me? I'm where you found me at the start. When you've grown out of this machine Remember how I never seem to see life Or sleeping in the dark So leave me to these stupid words I'll pick my grave on silly curses All I expected of myself Yeah I'll be dead, sick, pissed and bitter Trying to string a word together Yeah well, we all know how it hurts

Our Eyes Are Bright
We draw up maps So we can slip away Wrapped up in codes Our whispering friends So throw all your knives Before it gets too late Blacken the greys We'll be okay This must be our fault These must be our scars Tell us what's wrong Tell me who you are So sharpen your heads And we can stand just there Fuck us up, gently We won't even care Our eyes are bright And we curl caffeine for sparks We get in trouble if we stay up after dark 'Til we fall down and we fall down anyway Out in the hallways We make our tracks in packs We get in trouble if we stay up after dark And we fall down and we fall down anyway So turn up the dark We can't close our eyes Though twinkles and fuse and England's truth We weaken Just breathing (just breathing) Just breath (just breathing) Just breathing Breathing Breathing Breathing Our eyes are bright And we curl cafefine for sparks We get in trouble if we stay up after dark 'Til we fall down and we fall down anyway Out in the hallways We make our tracks in packs We get in trouble if we stay up after dark And we fall down and we fall down anyway

Kick Up The Fire, And Let The Flames Break Loose

The Same Mistakes
And so it has to change The notebook's now in pieces Words we'll never sing I know you'll say i've simply jumped the gun And that they've win But you can't keep making the same mistakes You see i've had this thought It took its time in coming But now won't be denied I'd always gone about these things all wrong But not this song Coz you can't keep making the same mistakes No you can't keep making hte same mistakes Can't jump ship just yet There's no one at the wheel Someone has to steer Get a hold of yourself Keep your head there's no time to waste You'll see it soon enough But all is not forgotten And now's no time for tears Coz though that boy has died this one still lives And now there's life And a change to make up for all those mistakes But please don't get me wrong Coz everything was honest True and from the heart There's still the same old hang ups so don't fret Its not safe yet And who knows there's always time to screw up again But maybe we'll be cool Coz you were made an offer You could not refuse You made me come alive and see my face See my grace And we grow or do we just haul it around?

Promises Promises
It's got me going inside I think it's happening again I think there's gonna be some action Coz you got me going inside You got me where you want me Sit down and talk to me Well i just hope you're happy With your snake skin dead bodies evening all Well just go go back to your bright lights You made promises you couldn't keep Sicking up rag doll more than you know Just keep your mouth shut you got no mind to blow You celebrate things you celebrate things forget and me and just desecrate everything Oh you messed it up good yeah this kid's just a joke It's got me going inside I think it's happening again I think there's gonna be some action Coz you got me going inside You got me where you want me Sit down and talk to me Well i just hope you're happy With your snake skin dead bodies evening all Well just go go back to your bright lights You made promises you couldn't keep Sicking up rag doll more than you know Just keep your mouth shut you got no mind to blow Baby can't shoot straight But you gotta shoot straight There's so many friends to make Gotta take blows it's the way that you grow Baby can't shoot straight There's so many friends to make Gotta take blows it's the way that you grow Don't need to be seen Just gotta get yourself known

New Toys
We came we played we drifted away We came we played but it got away oh no What's happening to us? We came we played we drifted away We came we played but it got away oh no What's happening to us? Well I'll just shut my eyes 'til we get back home 'Til we touch back down and keep playing dumb And I'm carving my own little masterpiece Go ahead cut deep but don't tell the boys I tried but now I can't feel a thing Just gagged and bound and clipped at the wings oh no What's happening to us? I tried but now I can't feel a thing Just gagged and bound and clipped at the wings oh no What's happening to us? Well I'll just shut my eyes 'til we get back home 'Til we touch back down and keep playing dumb And I'm carving my own little masterpiece Go ahead cut deep but don't tell the boys And I'll just shut my eyes 'til we get back home 'Til we touch back down and keep playing dumb And I'm carving my own little masterpiece Go ahead cut deep but don't tell the boys

Talking To A Brick Wall
I'm not quite how I should be been finding tricks too hard I'm thinking something must be broken Cause it's wasn't like this before Now everyone is ugly and everyone is stoned Small things about you excite me But then I'd hate to spoil the tone All my little somethings just ran out of luck Secret dates with strangers Dirty words and fighting talk I'm so scared it's killed me Time and time again I can't live with compromise So maybe we could talk as friends? If at first you don't succeed try again for me Today is going to be fine tomorrow will be fine too I asked for things to better me Even though they silenced my soul I can taste is just for a second and then it disappears The flowers look like glitter but then so do you my dear All my little somethings just ran out of luck Secret dates with strangers Dirty words and fighting talk I'm so scared it's killed me Time and time again I can't live with compromise So maybe we could talk as friends? If at first you don't succeed try again for me It's in the way that you look It's in the books that won't read It comes and goes like a friend It's with me right 'til the end It's in the memories I've lost It's concentrating too much It's breaking down of relations And it's the beat of the clock It's not being able to be explain Or get your feelings across It's in the pain that won't leave you It's coming straight back for us It's in a new lease of life And a search that ends well It's in finding that change It's being happy again

Into My Arms
One night one night is never enough with you Please come back into my arms So we can hold and share what we had before Everything's the same only you're not around The silent chill and the smell you made Is making me nervous and I'm always sad How much more of this is there to come? Don't let me know One night one night is never enough with you Please come back into my arms So we can hold and share what we had before We found him lying here staring at the stones Seem like he'd made up his mind after all I'd like to save him take his mind off the pain But you and i both know that I've gont things to do One night one night together again just won't do When there's so much more to give So won't you come back here now into my arms

Blind Pilots
I hope you never change I hope you never go I hope you always keep Our little secrets though But how'd we get here At this height And what's this talk of Dead weight I know we always drink But we don't always fight The landing lights are on But we're just out of sight Cos this thing's mobile There's still wheels And I'm not done yet So hang on You came along to change the grade To raise the bar I'd made of late You came along to raise the stakes To tend to me and my mistakes I can't pretend that I could be The man you said you saw in me But hang around and I'll try and land this thing No one came No one saw Someone pass the manual And soon I'll go away I'll see you at the door So go put David on Read about the war We're just blind pilots In strange planes Back seat drivers In dead cars You came along to change the grade To raise the bar I'd made of late You came along to raise the stakes To tend to me and my mistakes I can't pretend that I could be The man you said you saw in me But hang around and I'll try and land this thing Yeah I made a list of all the things That I could change how I could win I can't and I refuse to say The wheels have slowly come away I pray to God my soul to keep Cos I could never stand the heat But hang around and I'll try and land this thing No one came No one saw Someone pass the manual

A.I.M.

In Your Prime
Like to dream Cos when I dream I'm with you And you let me do things to you That I would not normally do You always play and you want me You never leave my side You'll always be in your prime girl Just how I remember you Lick my wounds

Written Apology
Haven't you heard It's getting that time So go spread the word And get practicing your rhymes The foot and the bear And signature moves A word in your ear And look who's doing stuff We love the way you move I know we've been gone And we're never around But we're coming home And we've missed getting down You'll always remain the beautiful boys So don't ever change And just go get the girls And it's all a request Just to carry it on A force of a habit, to drag us along We gave you excuses We gave you a song You carried it on We love the way you move

Blind Pilots

Blind Pilots
I hope you never change I hope you never go I hope you always keep Our little secrets though But how'd we get here At this height And what's this talk of Dead weight I know we always drink But we don't always fight The landing lights are on But we're just out of sight Cos this thing's mobile There's still wheels And I'm not done yet So hang on You came along to change the grade To raise the bar I'd made of late You came along to raise the stakes To tend to me and my mistakes I can't pretend that I could be The man you said you saw in me But hang around and I'll try and land this thing No one came No one saw Someone pass the manual And soon I'll go away I'll see you at the door So go put David on Read about the war We're just blind pilots In strange planes Back seat drivers In dead cars You came along to change the grade To raise the bar I'd made of late You came along to raise the stakes To tend to me and my mistakes I can't pretend that I could be The man you said you saw in me But hang around and I'll try and land this thing Yeah I made a list of all the things That I could change how I could win I can't and I refuse to say The wheels have slowly come away I pray to God my soul to keep Cos I could never stand the heat But hang around and I'll try and land this thing No one came No one saw Someone pass the manual

Derelict
an inability to settle down and talk straight reasons we've broken down the fact that neither of us seems to wanna give an inch reasons we've broken down simple but in fact a lack of care and understanding reasons we've broken down thought that one of us could get his or her own way reasons we've broken down giving in time and again to basic instinct reasons we've broken down the fact that we could never find the point of give and take reasons we've broken down without each other we get run down and unusable reasons we've broken down a combination of the forces are against us reasons we've broken down 'cause we still give our lives to crush our hearts for one another reasons we've got a chance this letting go feels like the murder of a lost soul reasons we've got a chance it's how we need to steal the same old failure of a miracle reasons we've got a chance the fact that you and i for what we are become each other reasons we've got a chance

I Want You To Think I Could
This is not my smile This is just old Though I've tried To be strong Tears I've cried To belong Still nobody wants to know I'll keep finding the words You and you do Though I've tried To be strong Tears I've cried To belong Still nobody wants to know

Habit Of A Lifetime
The photos are saved And the records you made Well you cracked your nose On the windowsill Carved your name on the wall For the hell of it all And its 'oh my God' These words mean nothing Cos you're taking it And you're breaking it And you always help yourself out first And 'oh well' You never could tell You never could break The habit of a lifetime Promise me more Show him the door You cracked a heart What a big surprise You stumble inside Take the smoke and you die You convinced yourself It will all turn out fine Cos you're taking it And you're breaking it And you always help yourself out first And 'oh well' You never could tell You never could break The habit of a lifetime....

Homo Sapiens

Homo Sapiens EP
You can't overestimate the limits of aggression of an animal created in the image of God himself You can't allow for subtle defects, there's no time to reflect, there's no time to cover your tracks It's not a mistake to fear an animals own limited access,the plan just keeps without his hopes and dreams such a cause of satisfaction, such a cause of action, search evaluate and destroy. I am man, i'm a superstar, i shine so bright, a worldwide success I said hammer it home, i'm a superstar, a glowing example of a dream come true. I am a man, I'm a work of art, I'm fashioned in God's own image, I am holy and clean I am a man, I'm a superstar, I shine so bright, a worldwide success Let me curl myself into a ball before you let me understand Let me curl myself into a ball before you let me understand Make me realize You can't underestimate the feeling of attraction of the animal in question to the marvel of what he's made You can't escape the sense of pride, he's created a divide between, you'll suffer it to rain on his parade. Don't even think about it, it's enough to read about it Force an animal to circle and keep an eye on you should you decide to have a go and try to rattle his cage I am a man, I'm a gift to the world, I wish I was born as civilised and set free I am a man, I'm a market tool, the sell of the century of the bargain of a lifetime Hammer it home, I'm a superstar, a glowing example of a dream come true Let me curl myself into a ball before you let me understand Let me curl myself into a ball before you let me understand Make me realize Havin' a ball just being a man Livin' it up just being a man It sure as hell rocks just being a man There's nothin quite beats just being a man like being a man

The Clan
We loose our way so easily Call it distraction, but it's not for me They call it vicious, but we did stand tall It's not your fault, my timings flawed We have our friends, few and far between We keep them close, and treat them mean We learnt from you, so thank you all You'll go on winning, please have a ball The final blow Some time to rest, beside the ones We like the best And who's to know what's round the bend It can't be far Cos it never ends It never ends

Haunted By You
This house is abandoned, I live here alone. The rain rots the wood, Whilst the stench eats the stone, And all the leaves they glow. They'll wait for the winter, Then hide in the snow. The walls have their memories, Their stories to tell. Ghosts walk the hallways, "How could you?" they yell. The birds they scream and crow, And sing of the terrible secrets they know. And if you marry I don't forgive nor forget, Because I dropped the vase and walked straight through the glass And with these bloody feet stained the carpets and sheets Of the house that we made, once imagined, now haunted by you. This is my castle, Here is my throne, This is the kingdom That I rule alone. And all the weeds that grow, They cling to the rafters to take in the show. I'll raise the taxes and I'll cut the wage. Where is my jester, court? Summon my page. The halls and windows glow With light from the candles we lit years ago If you marry I don't forgive nor forget, Because I dropped the vase and walked straight through the glass And with these bloody feet stained the carpets and sheets Of the house that we made, once imagined, now haunted by you. Where is my cavalry? Where is my maid? Answer the question, Or no one gets paid. Nobody answers 'cause nobody stayed. What a shame, what a waste, Hail the king. Oh, if you marry I don't forgive nor forget Because I dropped the vase and walked straight through the glass And with these bloody feet stained the carpets and sheets Of the house that we made, once imagined, now haunted by you.

Pins And Needles
Was it me being sat like this I think it's cause you're sitting here too I wanted to keep you company It seems we were sitting here For longer than we ever thought It's only when I got up I realised I felt this way I can't imagine it staying with me Forever And ever You got pins and needles Just pins and needles You got pins and needles Just pins and needles Said it would go away Looks as though it's here to stay Said it would go away Looks as though it's here to stay You said it would go away Looks as though it's here to stay You said it would go away Looks as though it's here to stay Were we really there that long? Maybe we should sit back down We were there together So I guess you feel it too Can we help each other through? You got pins and needles Just pins and needles You got pins and needles Just pins and needles You said it would go away Looks as though it's here to stay You said it would go away Looks as though it's here to stay You said it would go away Looks as though it's here to stay You said it would go away Looks as though it's here to stay

Talking To Pylons
Been talking to pylons About how to make friends Felt a funny connection So I shared a few words He said “Go to the river side' I should find a few there But then he asked if I'd stay a while Said it would sure make his day He said it's sure nice to see your face No one comes here no more Thanks for staying and talking a while It's hard to find a friend So I went to the riverside Amongst the cranes and the piers And I thought for the first time I could settle down here I played pool at the shipyard With all the new friends I'd made I play cards at the quayside With a battered old wave First I'll make the trip home Back to see my old friend See I promised to visit sometimes So this wont be the end He said I'll be right here when you need me I ain't going nowhere Thanks for dropping by, it was a gas It's hard to find a friend It's hard to find a friend.

This is your darkest hour This is your final view I'm still in love with you I'm still in love with you

Waiting Game

Waiting Game
From the littlest things And the pain that it brings Down to the things you miss the most But you won't let yourself go No you won't let yourself 'Cos time and time again We feel the load a little more But if you let yourself go Then we won't hit that road 'Cos I can see the sky But it's yours to be seen If you can be with someone else If you can let yourself go If you can let yourself But is this the time Is this the place And is this the end Is all I can say I promise I never meant to turn you away Why did you trust me with your heart So consider the things From the pain that it brings Down to the things you miss the most And if you let yourself go Well the next thing you know I have seen this guy And he's looking at me Yeah and he thinks I'm something else So you can walk yourself home Yeah you can go Even though you waited I know that you can begin on your own You can begin on your own But is this the time Is this the place And is this the end Is all I can say I promise I never meant to turn you away Why did you trust me with your heart I promise that I never meant to turn you away Why did you trust me with your heart

Pulling Shapes
Please hold the line, please hold the line... Look I'm just a pest and your just perfect Which has only just become apparent Don't put up with what is just second best Cos you can make things happen If you're not on form then I don't stand a chance Cos this is what could be but I'm not my best Please hold the line, please hold the line... If you're drawing stars and I'm drawing shapes Which I know you drew cos I made mistakes Now your pulling stars and I'm pulling shapes Cos I make mistakes happen The trouble with you, you get it all wrong Cos the trouble is with me I say it all wrong Please hold the line, please hold the line...

Last Line Of Defence
If there is a chance That we can cut all our losses today And leave these dead trees behind us I'll be sure to move out of your way This is the last line of defence The first shall be last make no mistake The weak will rise and pull down the fake Crystal clear chandeliers Never made for dark forgotten rooms Been hanging, swaying and feeling so helpless That there's nothing you could possibly change This is the last line of defence The first shall be last make no mistake The weak will rise and pull down the fake Take it all away from me This want, this lust, this selfish greed I'd give them up if they weren't built into My deepest needs and what makes me believe in you

For The Last Time
I can't see you anymore The tears have blocked my view I think it's best that I don't see Instead I'll keep the memory Of you smiling back at me My love I can't believe this day has come We have lost and they have won We won't complete what we've begun It's vanished like the setting sun But it won't be back to comfort us To keep us warm when we've had enough All that's left for me to say I'm sorry that it had to end this way It's over It's over Just turn around and face the world Playing, walking, take a soul This was your decision, your mistake Our love was never yours to take It's time to say goodbye How I wish that I would die You had something special, someone true Someone who really loved you It's over It's over You used to light up the dark You picked me up from the start And now I'm lost without you Nothing changes day after day I hope that this is just a phase That I am going through It's time to walk yourself home For it's time It's over..

No need to wait I’m heading off I don’t feel like I want you as part of life How your eyes look sad and surprised I don’t care I’m leaving tonight I’ve had enough You’ve given up I swore this would never happen again You don’t cause my lips to keel Your touch has lost its appeal I trusted you in my arms I carried you with my heart It’s criminal not to feel at all I’m sorry but you’ve left it too late We can’t keep holding on We’re low on luck and out of time I can’t keep holding on It’s unmistakable we are incapable of love I’ve had enough You’ve given up I don’t feel like I want you as part of life You held control all the time No longer there by my side I trusted you in my arms I carried you with my heart It’s criminal not to feel at all I’m sorry but you’ve left it too late We can’t keep holding on We’re low on luck and out of time I can’t keep holding on for you to one day change your mind We can’t keep holding on We’re low on luck and out of time I can’t keep holding on It’s unmistakable we are incapable of love It’s hopeless you don’t help things Your kiss could suck the life out of anything It’s over You broke this Lips were shaking Don’t feel we connect I trusted you in my arms I carried you with my heart It’s criminal not to feel at all I’m sorry but you’ve left it too late We can’t keep holding on We’re low on luck and out of time I can’t keep holding on for you to one day change your mind We can’t keep holding on We’re low on luck and out of time I can’t keep holding on It’s unmistakable we are incapable of love

Once More With Feeling
Can’t you see the way you talk to each other? Don’t you realise we’re in this together? It’s difficult to think you love one another at all. Think twice, stand back, turn around and come back Start again once again once more with feeling You’re on the same side so why so why are you fighting We share the same blood you’re loved that you’ll ever know Think twice, stand back, turn around and come back Start again once again once more with feeling Can’t you see the way you talk to each other? Don’t you realise we’re in this together?

What Have You Gone And Done?
You never let go How the hell was I to know That you’d never let go You never let go Now I’m all on my own It’s out of my hands Now there is a rocket in the skies And it’s all out of control They’ve taken control They’re loosing their heads They’ve got the money Now the meek have got the message Be afraid of what you can And be gone on your way to all your wasted lies I can’t be the only one To think what have become Who can’t quite believe he’s on this side This is no ordinary world What have you gone and done When you had the chance to prove us wrong I can’t be the only one You left me down here You let me down Now it seems you’re never coming back Because they never fight fair They’ve dragged us all in Just stay on guard Don’t show all our cards Repeat you have to stay on guard Be afraid of what you can And be gone on your way to all your wasted lies Go on your way Don’t be brave now just keep your head down We’ll do our best but we can’t hold on too long

Take Comfort
To think I showed such promise, such potential as a lover But I guess I had my hands full with myself without another To occupy my fancies to take root amongst the woods Hell, I should have known I'd never come up with the goods I never could I will laugh and I will cry And I'll take comfort in that someday I shall die I've said and I've done things in my time and make you shiver I've spent time with wistful eyes just staring at the river In the end I couldn't even find the words she wanted me to say In her heart she knows she never knew me anyway What can I say? I will laugh and I will cry And I'll take comfort in that someday I shall die I will laugh and I will cry And I'll take comfort in that someday I shall die Take for instance if you will, a person you don't care for Not someone you hate, just someone you turn off the phone for Spare a thought for them because no matter how much they whine and they moan There's not a bad thing you can say about them they've not said When they're alone Pick up the phone I will laugh and I will cry And I'll take comfort in that someday I shall die I will laugh and I will cry And I'll take comfort in that someday I shall die

All I See Is You
How’s it got so far? I’ve gone way too far It’s become so hard How’d it get so far? And why does it hurt? I don’t want the hurt I can’t stop this hurt Can I stop this hurt? I have let you down I have let me down Heard what’s going down? Now I’m one of them And why does it hurt? I don’t want the hurt I can’t stop this hurt Can I stop this hurt? Take me out to sea Make it pain to see Stop this misery Where all eyes can see And why does it hurt? I don’t want the hurt I can’t stop this hurt Can I stop this hurt? I will find my way to you I have to find my way to you All I see is you And you’re beautiful But you’re far away And you’re over me And you’re so happy And I can’t get through ‘Cos I fucked it up Leaving you for dead Now I’m starved for air And there’s no one there Now way out of here ‘Cos I failed again Nothing left to say I’ve thrown it all away My head is spinning around And my throat is tight And my heart is cold I think I’m about to fold But they don’t care for it They don’t give a fuck Telling me nothing Show you a thing or two Under black of night Under crashing waves Feel it crushing it Squeezing every drop I think I’ve lost control It’s controlling what I’ve got How could I do this To the one I miss? The one I dream about I want to scream and shout All I see is you...

Isn't It Strange
I’m scared of what we might become I’m scared of what we haven’t done I’m scared that you don’t turn me on Worlds are all you like to hear We’re always safe and sound and sure ‘Cos nothing changes any more Nothing changes any more I want things to change You’re a halfweight A lightweight You weigh me down Yeah you look great on paper But it feels wrong Yeah it feels…. Isn’t it strange how everyone else is looking at things that everyone else does I’m scared that this is not the one I’m scared the bad times haven’t gone Best to regret than not at all You see I want it all You’re a halfweight A lightweight You weigh me down And all the things you say They just make me wonder Yeah you look great on paper It sill feels wrong I’m scared of what we might become I’m scared of what we haven’t done Isn’t it strange how everyone else is looking at things everyone else does

House Of Cards
Turn off this fire Switch off the lights It’s time to retire It’s no time to fight This house is in pieces I never saw it falling It was such a beautiful thing What does it matter now You’ll never come home What does it matter now You’ll never come home with me again Not now I burst the bubbles And I broke you’re heart It seems I’m in trouble Let’s go back to the start ‘Cos all I want is you And all I have is wrong And just to have you in the place where you belong You understand me when I don’t even understand myself What does it matter now You’ll never come home

You said, "How is it you never write me a nice one? They're always so hard to sit through" You said, "I know they're good ones, but darling, they're hard ones to hear, when I've been, where I've been with you" So here's an attempt to pull heart in lament to the things I know I put you through I just hope that it does you an adequate justice It's all that, the least I can do So I pick up my pen, try to just spout it out But I can't seem to find what to say Because something just gets in the way That didn't quite go to plan Maybe I'm just not man enough, strong enough, up to the test Just sing from the heart Forget wit, story arc And a need to put something to rest To think how you saved me when everyone hated me How do you sum that shit up? There just isn't room in a quaint little tune to shed light on the dark you lit up But I'll grab my guitar and we'll both see how far I can get with what I have to say But then something just gets in the way Darling, don't fret I may not fail you yet I can feel it, it's coming, I swear There's still time to write This could be out of sight if you can just hang on in there How can I hold a flame to the hurt and the pain to the laughter, the grace and the lust? How the creature inside seemed to flee from the fight To do right, to be good, to be just But you taught me to love and you taught me to fight And I fought with you all of the way Because something just gets in the way I started out trying to write you a nice one But something just got in the way Yeah, something just gets in the way
