Start Of The End

Darling, you’ve been looking so sad
Tell me, is it really so bad?
You wanted my love and I told you you’d get it
Misunderstood me and now I regret it
Lately I belong in your past

Dream just about to die
Can I just hold onto you?
Canna just hold onto you

You can maybe fix the lack in my soul?
The stars in the sky will look down on the laughter that we’ll never know
This is the start of the end and we know it
This is the start of the end and we know it
Maybe we’ll be starting again?

Dream just about to die
Can I just hold onto you?
Canna just hold onto you

Dreams always seem to die
When you’re waking up to you
When you’re waking up to you

This is the start of the end and they know it

Face May Change

We used to have a voice, but we’re whispering now
We spoke without fear or favour
Just a memory now
They shout about hope and change
The status quo remains

Though the face may change
The ideas remain the same
Though the words may change
The ideas remain the same

We used to have choice but we’re whimpering now
In the noise the chance is lost
Just a memory now

Though the face may change
The ideas remain the same
Though the words may change
The ideas remain the same

“From France to the Philippines, from Jamaica to Japan, from Malaysia to Mexico, from Sri Lanka to Singapore, privatisation is on the move!”

“Perhaps I could put it this way? In the 1980s, Mrs. Thathcher made very remarkable changes to this country. She practically took a hatchet, carved her way through the undergrowth, and where would that end? Bitterness and chaos and frustration in Scotland. Would that not lead them to take the extra step towards separation?”

“We believe in our relationship with business and industry. There is a third way.”

“Evil. Pure and simple. They kill children, rape women, threaten non-believers with genocide, and some people seem to think that you can opt out of this. You can’t, and everyone here can be proud of that.”

Though the face may change
The ideas remain the same
Though the words may change
The ideas remain the same
Though the words may change
The ideas remain the same
Though the face may change
The ideas remain the same
Though the face may change

 Change Is Gonna Come

Waken on a beautiful day
Where you always have to pay so your “partner” gets its way
Don’t mind stealing all you have
They think it’s a laugh, when they think at all

Whispering all of the things that I should have been shouting instead
Been whispering all of the things that I should have been shouting instead
Whispering all of the things that I should have been shouting instead
Whispering all of the things that I should have been shouting instead
Punching the air at the way that I just hit the nail on the head
I’m punching the air at the way that I just hit the nail on the head

What’s happening?
I’m sick of this
When nausea is our only feeling
Change is gonna come

Waking a nation up is easier when it’s runninag out of air
You don’t mind leaving so-called friends
Who are true to the end as long as they’re getting paid

There’s disabled people, they’re picking through binbags of rubbish to eat
There’s disabled people, they’re picking through binbags of rubbish to eat
Throwing old ladies and children just like yours right out in the street
They’re throwing old ladies and children just like yours right out in the street
Stealing the jobs and the oil and the gold for their All You Can Eat
They’re stealing the jobs and the oil and the gold for their All You Can Eat

It’s happening
In your newsfeed
This nausea
On repeat
Change is gonna come
Change is gonna come
Change is gonna come
Change is gonna come

It’s 5am, and the people want to ask me
Will I apologise for ruining the party?
Whether for labour or love, sometimes you have to kill the dove
Sometimes you have to stop
Have to stop whispering

Whispering all of the things that I should have been shouting instead
Whispering all of the things that I should have been shouting instead
Punching the air at the way that I just hit the nail on the head
I’m punching the air at the way that I just hit the nail on the head

Change is gonna come

Upside

I can see the names you’re naming
I can see the blame you’re framing
Tell me when the upside’s coming?

I can see the trains are rolling
Just about as far as I can throw you
Tell me when the upside’s coming?

You can see us waiting
I don’t see you caring
Trust is not a white flag
Never getting either
As long as you’re pretending
As if we won’t remember

Tell me when the upside’s coming?
Tell me when the upside’s coming?
Tell me when the upside’s coming?
Tell me when the upside’s coming?

I can see you lighting up the gas lamps
I can see you cheering on the boot stamps
Tell me when the upside’s coming?

I can see the trains are rolling
Just about as far as I can throw you
Tell me when the upside’s coming?

You can see us waiting
I don’t see you caring
Trust is not a white flag
Never getting either
As long as you’re pretending
As if we won’t remember

Tell me when the upside’s coming?
Tell me when the upside’s coming?
Tell me when the upside’s coming?
Tell me when the upside’s coming?

77

Under the bridge is where my home is
Gonna adopt a new persona
Making it look like I’m a loner
I never met you but I know you
Looking through the PRISM of my Five Eyes
Targeting people on the frontline
Throwing grenades into your timeline
Looking for a head to get inside

Feel the battlefield around you in every single thing you do
In every view your try to skew
And every lie you try to spew
Wash your brain out soap and water
Wash your brain out shells and mortar
Wash your hands
Don’t waste your talent
Wash your hands

1 2 3 4 5 77
War for your mind and we’re fighting on the front line
Gonna troll you, mould you, try to control you, keep you in the place we want you
1 2 3 4 5 77
Arms on the crown and we got the place on lockdown
We can hone you, loan you, bought and sold you, god save the Queen who rules you

Looking for a head to get inside
Make the divide another mile wide
Looking for a head to get inside
Make the divide another mile wide
Looking for a head to get inside
Make the divide another mile wide
Looking for a head to get inside
Make the divide another mile wide

Wash your brain out soap and water
Wash your brain out shells and mortar
Wash your hands
Don’t waste your talent
Wash your hands

Laptop loyal with a swastika tattoo
No such thing as a fucking “red hand salute”
Ready and willing, shilling for the king’s shilling
Last word getter
If they mute it then it doesn’t matter
Citizens are dissidents
Democracy is binary
Division is necessity
Infiltrate the anarchy
Excavate the certainty
Activate the lunacy
Legitimise brutality
We control the narrative

Looking for a head to get inside

War for your mind and we’re fighting on the front line
Gonna troll you, mould you, try to control you, keep you in the place we want you

Snowflakes creeping
No-one said we couldn’t have fun
Cos we own you, loan you, bought and sold you, god save the Queen who rules you

Looking for a head to get inside
Make the divide another mile wide
Looking for a head to get inside
Make the divide another mile wide
Looking for a head to get inside

If you’re a white working class boy
If you’re black
If you’re a woman
If you’re at a state school
If you suffer from mental health problems
If you’re young
First hand accounts from N.G.O.s and aid workers have detailed the most horrific suffering
But let me give an example of some of the evidence that leads us to this conclusion

That if you’re born poor, you will die on average nine years earlier than others
If you’re black you’re treated more harshly by the criminal justice system
If you’re at a state school you are less likely to reach the top professions than if you’re educated privately
If you are a woman you will earn less than a man
If you suffer from mental health problems there’s not enough help to hand
If you’re young you’ll find it harder than ever before to own your own home

But the mission to make Britain a country that works for a privileged few means more than fighting these injustices
I want to use this opportunity to make several things clear

I was fighting for ISIS
I could stand in the middle of 5th Avenue and shoot somebody and I wouldn’t lose any voters

Brexit Means Brexit for a privileged few

We need a bold new positive vision for the future of our country, a vision of a country that works for a privileged few

Where we are told that we cannot have, we cannot sell bananas in bunches of more than two or three bananas
You cannot, you cannot take bananas with abnormal curvature of the fingers
It is perfectly true that I have had some drugs

Strong and Stable
I was fighting for ISIS
Strong and Stable
Brexit Means Brexit
For a privileged few
For a privileged few

I want to use this opportunity to make several things clear.
Brexit Means Brexit.
There should be no general election until 2020, and there should be no decision to invoke Article 50 until the British negotiating strategy is agreed and clear.
We need a bold new positive vision for the future of our country, a vision of a country that works for a privileged few.
I have done this.
If confirmed this is yet another example of the Conservative party regime’s brutality and brazen disregard for its own people. This increasingly hostile behaviour has involved a sustained campaign of cyber espionage and disruption including against divisive nationalists in Scotland and Wales, and as part of this programme have produced and stockpiled small quantities of novichok, to use these weapons, and it is the duty of the government and Parliament to make sure we do just that.
No other country has a combination of the capability, the intent and the motive to carry out such an act. The Bank Of England is ready to provide significant additional funds and will take further action as necessary.
These are all measures that will be taken by a Conservative government I lead. The regime and its backers, including Russia, must be held to account.

Putin looks at her and he laughs, ok? He laughs, I think I would be probably be a lot more relative
Strong And Stable
I know nothing about Russia

When I become president: death, destruction terrorism and weakness
I could stand in the middle of 5th Avenue and shoot somebody and I wouldn’t lose any voters.
I mean he’s like a maniac.
It’s like incredible.
Would I approve waterboarding?
You bet your ass I’d approve it. You bet your ass. In a heartbeat.
And I’d bring back a hell of a lot worse than waterboarding.
I want surveillance on certain mosques ok?
Guantanamo Bay. Which by the way, which by the way, we are keeping open, which we are keeping open, and we’re gonna load it up with some bad dudes, believe me, we’re gonna load it up.

This is one of the most crooked politicians in history. The devil. A bigot. Embarrassing. Abusive to women.

I am going to take such good care of women’s health care issues, you won’t even believe it.
And I said to myself, there has to be some form of punishment.
For the woman?
Yeah, there has to be some form.

Is drugs strong, huh?
Donald Trump has small hands.
I love babies.
Actually I was only kidding, you can get the baby out of here.
You know what they used to do to guys like that when they were in a place like this? They’d be carried out on a stretcher.
I think that we should take a drug test prior to the debate

Maybe It's Not The End Of The World

Maybe the land won't burn?
Maybe the seas won't boil?
Maybe we're gonna say every sorry?
Maybe we're gonna be scared?

Maybe the sky won't fall in?
May the rain will rust where it's falling?
Maybe the future's calling?
Maybe the time will fly while you're stalling?

Maybe it's not the end of the world

Maybe we'll have to wake up?
Maybe we'll have to come home?
Maybe the air won't choke you?
Maybe your heart will mend where it broke you?
Maybe the future's calling?
Maybe the time will fly while you're stalling?

Maybe it's not the end of the world

Maybe we're gonna wonder where all the time has flown?
Maybe we're gonna wonder where all the time has flown?
Maybe we're gonna wonder where all the time has flown?
Maybe we're gonna wonder where all the time has flown?

Maybe it's not the end of the world

Pale Horse

Beauty and the beast is in the eye of the behold a pale horse then you die
I don't wanna get to know ya, I just wanna throw ya up into the sky
Don't wanna mess you up, but I can't keep my mouth shut all the time
You know it chokes me up every time I look into your eyes

Oceans in the sky explosions make me die to know you maybe thought of me
Do ya think about the future, or does it run into ya, bruising all you see?
Don't want to hold you up but someone's got to get you home tonight
You know it chokes me up every time I look into your eyes

Pale horse, remember what I said
Pale horse, your tongue is always in my head
My heart is yours until I die

I can't come down, I can't calm down

Baby you know I'm an explorer gonna open all the doors you never knew you had
Do ya wanna be my owner? Someone else is gonna try to take you home
Hiding from the Jekyll doctor, everyone's a devil all the time
You know it chokes me up every time I look into your eyes

Pale horse, remember what I said
Pale horse, your tongue is always in my head
My heart is yours until I die

I can't come down, I can't calm down
 

Rainclowns Make No Sense

Sunshine where did you go?
Walked away with a piece of my soul
These clouds make no sense to me

Sunshine where did you go?
You should be with the people you know
These clowns make no sense to me

These clowns make no sense to me
Come out lets get out of here
Come with me
Happiness loves company

Sunshine where did you go?
Can't you help to soften the blow?
These words make no sense to me

Sunlight give me a sign that you'll be back another time
What? You no sense make to me

What? You no sense make to me
Raincloud's drowning all of me
Let me breathe
Let me hope
Let me believe the sky is clear

When rainclouds come it's easy to forget the sun used to shine on everything you do
When rainclouds come it's easy to regret the one thing you wish you'd done when you could

Sunshine where did you go?
Show me the sun

Heartbuzz

You are as you were
But that was the best I've ever been
This is your heartbuzz
But these are not even my words
You are as you were
But that was the best I've ever been
This is your heartbuzz

But you should know
Blood burns with dreams of you
The pain of you leaving has sliced my soul in two
My love for you has made me brave and true
The pain of you leaving sliced my soul in two
Blood burns with dreams of you
But you should know

You are as you were
That was the best I've ever been
This is your heartbuzz
These are not even my words

But you should know
Consumed with dreams of you
The sound of you breathing I'm addicted to
My love for you has sliced my soul in two
The sound of you breathing has made me addicted to
Blood burns with dreams of you
But you should know

Blood burns with dreams of you
The pain of you leaving has sliced my soul in two
My love for you has made me brave and true
The pain of you leaving sliced my soul in two
Blood burns with dreams of you
But you should know

You are as you were
But that was the best I've ever been
This is your heartbuzz
These are not even my words

Consumed with dreams of you
The sound of you breathing I'm addicted to
My love for you has sliced my soul in two
The sound of you breathing has made me addicted to
Blood burns with dreams of you
But you should know

But you should know

Brightest Star

Can you feel the force that keeps the earth round the sun?
It's been pulling us together from day one
When I'm with you I can feel the planets align
And I know that soon our orbits will collide

You are the light that's been shining on my life
You are Venus in the night
You're the brightest star that's shining in the sky

Thought it feels like light years we are never apart
Because distance makes no difference in our hearts
Can you feel the magnetism pulling on us
Even though the poles will flip and I'll mess up

You are the light that's been shining on my life
You are Venus in the night
You're the brightest star that's shining in the sky

In the sky

Can you see the universe is telling us with these forces that we can't ignore that we are connected outwith space and time?
Every here (let's get carried away)
Every now
Every there (let's get carried away)
Every then
Every where (let's get carried away)
Every when

You are the light that's been shining on my life
You are Venus in the night
You're the brightest star that's shining in the sky

In the sky
 

More Fool Me

I know you don't want to see me
And I know you're disappointed with life
So you scream and you shout at the world

Sometimes feels like you don't really hear me
And so I keep talking and talking
As though the noise I make is gonna change something

Thinking about what I'll say when I see you
I don't want to talk, I just want to be with you
Please won't you fool me over and over again?
Fool me, fool me and I'll play along with you

I know you'll never want me and your heart won't move when you think of my smile won't you when you remember me sometime?

Feels like you'll never surrender (feels like home)
Although I would in a second (though I would)
My heart breaks over and over again (my heart breaks)

Always thinking about what I'll do when I see you
I don't want to talk to you, just want to be with you
How can you fool me all over again?
Fool me, fool me and I'll play along with you

Won't you fool me over and over again?
And I'll play along with you
 

Love Is A Drug

My eyes are oceans when I think about why we're watching drones on the tv like we've been lobotomised
I don't wanna buy it but the pushers don't know the score
I can't keep thinking if we give it a try we'll stop the bomb, stop the war, won't have to be paranoid
If you swallow this you'll lose a bitter taste for sure

Love is a drug and you know you know we need it more than air
You know we want it so bad and we're gonna get it don't be scared
If we live to love a little more we can know the score and stop the war
Fear's a disease and you know that love is the cure

If we're all on it gonna fight the disease
And we gotta stick together gotta take to the streets
If you wanna revolution be the change you wanna see

Love is a drug and you know you know you need it more than air
You know we want it so bad and we're gonna get it don't be scared
If we live to love a little more we can know the score and stop the war
Fear's a disease and you know that love is the cure

Love is a drug and you know you know you need it more than air
You know we want it so bad and we're gonna get it don't be scared
If we live to love a little more we can know the score and stop the war
Fear's a disease and you know that love is the cure
 

Shooting At Stars

I got over you
It wasn't easy but I needed to
Couldn't have spent my whole life waiting for you to stop being a fool

I was thinking back
All the things I did to make you sad
Who would have thought I could wreck your head so bad?
I must have been mad

Pretty thing you know we always argue
Tell me what you want?
Tell me what you want?
Pretty soon I'll never see you
I wanna stop my heart
I wanna stop my heart

I wanna stop my heart
I wanna stop my heart cos every time it beats it feels like it's breaking
Wanna stop my heart?
Wanna stop my heart?

When I think of you, all I see is what we didn't do
Heaven was always near when I was with you, in you, shooting at stars
Shooting at stars

Pretty thing our time is almost over
Tell me what you want?
Tell me what you want?
Pretty soon I'll never see you
I wanna stop my heart
I wanna stop my heart

I wanna stop my heart
I wanna stop my heart cos every time it beats it feels like it's breaking
Wanna stop my heart?
Wanna stop my heart?
 

Yoyo

Hanging from your finger you are pulling on my string
Doing all the tricks I do for you
Even when I'm sleeping you have got a hold of me
In my dreams I'm always winding up with you

When I get tied up in knots I haven't got a clue
I don't know what to say or what to do
Half the time I  blow my mind with the things I say and do
I only seem to blow it because it's you

I am up and down
I am spinning round cos I'm a yoyo and there's nothing I can do
You can make me feel like I am not a spinning wheel
I'm not a yoyo when I'm coming back to you

When you leave me hanging I have never felt so down
So hard to pick myself up off the ground
But when we are talking find myself among the clouds
You elevate me just by being around

Would you get entwined with me I haven't got a clue
I don't know what you'd say or what you'd do
I'm inclined to blow your mind with the things I say and do
I hope that I can work things out with you

I am up and down
I am spinning round cos I'm a yoyo and there's nothing I can do
You can make me feel like I am not a spinning wheel
I'm not a yoyo when I'm coming back to you

You spin me up when I am down
I'm never down when you're around

Bridget

Walking through the darkness trying to find my path
Need a light to guide it, light to mark it out
I've been guiding myself on the brightest star
But it's long since nova-ed and it fizzled out

Need a change in me
Need a spark in me
Need a fire in me

Bridget you brought the sun
Its golden rays wash over me
Illuminate me
Bridget you brought the sun
You brought out the song in me
Forged change in me
Lit a spark in me
Fuelled the fire in me

Lit a fire in me and now I feel alive
Healed my heart and gave me back my faith in life

Bridget you brought the sun
Its golden rays wash over me
Illuminate me
Bridget you brought the sun
You brought out the song in me
Forged change in me
Lit a spark in me
Fuelled the fire in me
I don't wanna let that go
 

Lay

I'll lay my kisses on your eyes
So lay your arms around my bones
I'll lay my kiss upon your smile
So make my smile your very own

I'll lay my heart upon your lap
So lay your complication bare
I'll leave my simple head intact
Except to store your secrets there

I'll lay my kisses on your eyes
So lay your arms around my bones
I'll lay my kiss upon your smile
So make my smile your very own

I'll carry you beyond the noise
So lay upon my trembling arms
I'll lay my dreams beside your sleep
So make my dreams escape from harm

I'll lay my kisses on your eyes
So lay your arms around my bones
I'll lay my kiss upon your smile
So make my smile your very own
 

Gandhi

Centuries remain the same
Victory is choosing who to blame
Whoever kills the most gets to do it again
History Erodes But Love Remains

Don't want to be Genghis Khan
Don't want to be Napoleon
Don't want to be the pride of the Pentagon
If you want to be a man
Gandhi is the only man to be

The Greatest Things

The deserts will turn to glass
Law and justice will prevail
Have a spare to save the footage
The relief in success for democracy

People are stupid hysterical fools
Demand and applaud and consume
Destroy all the heretics talking us down
We'll create the greatest thing

The cities recede to ash
Rivers swell with flesh and shale
Have a spare to save the footage
The relief in success for democracy

People are stupid hysterical fools
Demand and applaud and consume
Destroy all the heretics talking us down
We'll create the greatest thing

We only humour you because you're so dangerous

People are stupid hysterical fools
Demand and applaud and consume
Destroy all the heretics talking us down
We'll create the greatest thing

Always A Risk

Visit the school suit; measure up the cannon fodder
Bolster up the coffers grabbing funds for all their funeral banners
"We made what's gonna kill 'em" 
They get the job done right but make sure that no-one films them
Sell all the weapons to the lunatics and rapists
We're an island we're safe...What? You think they can take us?
Get yourself some loyalty boy get some priorty boy
You think you're too good to die for your hometown?
Gonna make you care if you don't
Gonna make you proud you're a grunt
With all the taxes your folks paid
Buying all your guns and your helmet that'll definitely stop the bomb

There's always a risk

Prosthelise and evangelise
But no amount of faith can ever make you wise
Don't knock what you haven't tried
You can't contemplate truth until your head's untied
Almost certainly all the cautiousness lost
Hold on
Need to find out how much it costs
Don't count what you can't get don't expect
All that waiting makes for nothing but regret
Close the gap closer than that
Disclose what rose recommend a larger dose
Keep what flows in the protest
Next step morose and glows for effect
In the smoke that arose when the scandalous
Kept us afloat in our various poses
We kept on our toes and clambered closer
Docile and obese with cerise walls
And a love of stickshift
Thrift and generosity deserving case
Joking and boasts
Make the most and store the coasters
Gonna need more than food at your funeral
Cool the car we'll let it fly
Flattened and scattered full of the stolen and the pyrophobic
Nebulas of stress with gravity recessed
Not in the misery but what shivers as it toasts
Blades and chains nothing doing nothing close no plan but God still laughs

There's less now kill 'em quick
There's less now kill 'em quick
There's less now kill 'em quick
There's always a risk

There's always a risk
To record brainwaves subjects must be motionless
There's always a risk
To record brainwaves subjects must be motionless

It's grey to the touch

That's no way to dance
That's no way to talk
That's no way to eat
That's no way to stop
That's no way to breathe

Asking questions of what it's for
Banged around and still kicking
Heels hurting doesn't matter what you think you thought
or what you thought you might have been sure of
Flattered and scattered always opining for what you were
Stays with
Never wears off

There's always a risk

What You Want And Why

You're living in the fattest country in the world
So what have you got to worry about?
You're the sick man, the whipping boy, the freak
So what have you got to worry about?

Hold the world to ransom
Hiding behind its so obscene
There is no almost no maybe no inbetween
There is no victory until unstinting respect
So obscene

Under someone's agenda
Until something's askew
Ultimate simple answer
Until something's anew

Take a look at what you want and why you want it

You're living in the dullest country in the world
So what have you got to worry about?
You're the tiniest, the pitiful, the tease
So what have you got to worry about?

Hold the world to ransom
Throwing your weight so obscene
There is no almost no maybe no inbetween
There is no victory until unstinting respect
So obscene

Under someone's agenda
Until something's askew
Ultimate simple answer
Until something's anew

Take a look at what you want and why you want it

Take a look at what you want

Take a look at what you want and why you want it

Giants
(Song for Jack Putter)

If you're honest with your own head was it every out of reach?
Was it what you thought you wanted?
Or a lie you thought you'd teach?
You said the world was filled with magic
How could you lie with your face so straight and eyes so bright?

And I've been blind for so long that I've been aching with delight
Ever since I shook my brain awake this time
Recognise the things that make you what you see
When you dream you won't lose sight of what you need

When you're sick of having meaning and you're reeling from the flack
And the answer is in question and you couldn't take it back
And your only truths are the gambled clues that you used to bail you out
And your only way to the things you say is to leave the bullshit out

You said the world was filled with tragic episodes
If that is all you see that's all you'll have

And I've been blind for so long that I've been aching with delight
Ever since I shook my brain awake this time
Recognise the things that make you what you see
When you dream you won't lose sight of what you need

You said the world was filled with giants striding clumsily oblivious and full of rage

And I've been blind for so long that I've been aching with delight
Ever since I shook my brain awake this time
Recognise the things that make you what you see
When you dream you won't lose sight of what you need

There's always a way

Don't Look Down

Don't look down, you might fall
Falling hurts, hurts us all
You don't know what to do
Make it up, it seems to suit you
You don't know you're so close to heaven

Don't look down, do make love
Watching you rise above all these things that take us low
Honestly, I wanted you to know
You won't show you're so close to heaven

Something's holding me and it's not you
Never happens when you want it to
All the things I never seem to heed are the only things that set me free
You don't know you're so close

Don't look down, who's still up?
Watching you rise in love
You don't know you're so close you don't know
You're so close you don't know you're so close
You don't know you're so close you don't know

Something's holding me and it's not you
Never happens when you want it to
All the things I never seem to heed are the only things that set me free
You don't know you're so close

Panic

I was in a panic, and it left me blind
I mean I couldn't even go outside
I was waiting for the sun that came too quickly
and seemed to burn me

I was in a panic, it left me behind
I mean I couldn't even fantasise
I was waiting for the one
To elevate me and take away me

Then it went away

If I kissed you I would never stop
If I kissed you I would never stop
If I risked you I would never stop
If I missed you i would never stop

I was in a panic, it left me behind
I mean I couldn't even empathise
I was waiting for the one to elevate me
It seemed to burn me
And take away me

I want to do it all

If I kissed you I would never stop
If I kissed you I would never stop
If I risked you I would never stop
If I missed you i would never stop

Respect The Mistakes
(Song for Darius)

All enticing ends to means you break as soon as you can use them
All invited to the wakening of what you brought up
All insistences have ceased to call you what you wanted
It's all how instigated you can take it

All your liberties hang idle, do they lose their sweetness?
All smooth images to chisel off the blades inside you
All the batteries you wasted waiting for a wakeup
It's all how aggravated you can make it
It's all how consequated you can take it

Nice try! You know it's polite to fake surprise
You can't regret what you can't try
Everything has turned out the way you've planned
Respect the mistakes you've yet to make

All enabled to the things you bruise impressed upon you
All the aftershocks and ended boxes flatten round you
All the impudence of one who wanted something worthwhile
It's all how instigated you can take it

All the best are best because they care a lot about you
All the best can feel the love and take the punches for you
All the best are those who really think they've really fooled you
It's all how underrated you can take it
It's all how instigated you can make it

Nice try! You know it's polite to fake surprise
You can't regret what you can't try
Everything has turned out the way you've planned
Respect the mistakes you've yet to make

Everything has turned out the way you planned!
Till the second that your back is turned
Respect the mistakes you've yet to make

Quake

You could be achieving your ambitions before you even have them for all you know
You could be charging so hard in the wrong direction for all you know
You could be advocating antichrists and entertaining demons for all you know

I hope you brought enough for everyone?
I hope you're happy now that it's begun?
I hope temptation never spoiled your fun?
I hope the world can see your eyes shut tight
So let it go
You don't have to waste your time thinking about yourself now
Better to quake than fall apart
You don't have to waste your time thinking about yourself now
Better to quake than fall apart

You could be advocating everything before you even realise for all you know
You could be turning round and going in the wrong direction for all you know
You're sure that there's a reason, not a motive or an argument to prove
You're sure half of the reason was explosive just enough to get it moved

I hope you brought enough for everyone?
I hope you're happy now that it's begun?
I hope temptation never spoiled your fun?
I hope the world can see your eyes shut tight
So let it go
You don't have to waste your time thinking about yourself now
Better to quake than fall apart
You don't have to waste your time thinking about yourself now
Better to quake than fall apart

Unicorn

You can't see the stars in the city
And so you invent your own sky
There are no stars in this city
Only lights
That blind me and I'm reeling

Dancing on the seats, choking every chaser
Should it take this long to replace her?
Want without the aid, got to get away from this empty orchestra

Spread out your wings, they go on forever
Spread everything, now or never
And I taste your fear as you realise you've never lived before

If you didn't want to hurt me you never should have told me
I'll meet you in a dream tonight
I don't know what to do, I'm up to my hips in you
Your lips are getting colder
Want without the war, what we had before
Give it back too
Want without the way, how it made you safe
Give it back too

Dancing on the seats, choking every chaser
Should it take this long to replace her?
Want without the aid, got to get away from this empty orchestra

Spread out your wings, they go on forever
Spread everything, now or never
And I taste your fear but it's not as if you've not been scared before

Smalltalk

Pressure, its all about the pressure, obviously
It's all about lack of emptiness, and how you thought you'd be impressed
Ease, its all about the ease of idiocy
How's hypocrisy all about to interfere erratically?

Not about to apologise
Not about to count the time
How many times must the simplest things be said?
How many times must the simplest things be said?

Ok, man, no problem, cool, absolutely
Ok, man, no problem, cool, absolutely
Ok, man, no problem, cool, absolutely
Ok, man, no problem, cool, absolutely

Danger, it's all about the danger, endlessly
It's all about a lack of bitterness, and how you chose to be his guest
Glaze, it's all about the glaze of apathy
How's the world you want all about it interchange irrationally?

Not about to apologise
Not about to forget my eyes
How many times must the simplest things be said?
How many times must the simplest things be said?

Ok, man, no problem, cool, absolutely
Ok, man, no problem, cool, absolutely
Ok, man, no problem, cool, absolutely
Ok, man, no problem, cool, absolutely

Absolutely

Favour

Circumstances can destroy you
The trick's how much you care
Plans to fluster couldn't rule you
Sprains all the animals there
Sprains all the sanity there

Favour you with my eyes

Are you selfish? Did you think you could read his mind?
Are you careless? Did you think you could read his mind?

I couldn't stand the sun that much till I met you
Always there to do you such a favour

So much beauty, so much anguish
The trick's how much you spare
Tread away, retread and languish
Sprains all the latitude there
Sprains to the optimum there

Favour you with my eyes
Are you shellshocked? Did you think you could read his mind?
Are you careless? Did you think you could read his mind?

I couldn't stand the sight of much till I met you
I couldn't stand the sun that much till I met you
Always there to do you such a favour

Let Me Know

If I never saw you again
If I never saw you again I would be far worse than I am
I would be far worse than I am if I never saw you

If our plans explode in our face
If our plans explode in our face we can make some more if you like
If you wanted we could

If I ever try too hard let me know and I'll ease off
If I ever hurt your heart let me know

You make me want to let go

If I never saw you again
If I never saw you again I would be far worse than I am
I would be far worse than I am if I never saw you

Back Away

Sit back and relax and relax and sit back
All the questions you're asking are solid and quality
Not what you meant, but the answers are light and they're burning you properly, not so you'd collapse, but still...
That only was what you're leaning on, pushing the coma on
Knocking you out with your doubt
And you're asking for everything
Asking to tell him, giving yourself all the easiest lines to take

Too much to celebrate, I'm almost sure I've been too lazy
Too much acceleration, calling yours obscene and crazy
Too much is too familiar, anyone can see why you're walking
You glutton, take your punches, I've had enough of mine

You always try to back away, so I don't think I'll bother
Not much to see was your mistake, but you're still too clever
It's what it took to back away, so I don't think I'll bother
Don't think I'll bother

Sit back and relax and relax and sit back
All the questions you're asking are solid and quality
Not what you meant, but the answer's so slow that you needed the words to be written across her eyes
That only was what she's leaning on, pushing the coma on
Knocking you out with your doubt
And you're asking for everything
Asking to tell him, carrying it on to the great big beyond

Too much to celebrate, I'm almost sure I've been too lazy
Too much acceleration, calling yours obscene and crazy
Too much is too familiar, anyone can see why you're walking
You glutton, take your punches, I've had enough of mine

You always try to back away, so I don't think I'll bother
Not much to see was your mistake, but you're still too clever
It's what it took to back away, so I don't think I'll bother
Don't think I'll bother

Go away back to find what you had in mind
Go away back to find what you had in mind
Go away back to find what you had in mind
Go away back to find what you had in mind
Go away back to find what you had in mind

I don't think I'll bother
Not much to see was your mistake, but you're still too clever
It's what it took to back away, so I don't think I'll bother
Don't think I'll bother

I don't think I'll bother to sit back and relax

To sit back and relax and relax and sit back
All the questions you're asking are solid and quality

Rip

Turn it on when it matters
Don't regret the hints you took just remember justice fed on ancient hooks
Stolen ladders
Don't regret the lies you've made just remember don't retread the games you played

One shot and you blew it, two shots and you blew it, five shots and you blew it
One shot and you blew it, two shots and you blew it, five shots and you blew it
One shot and you blew it, two shots and you blew it, five shots and you blew it
Easy pattern to spot, why'd it take so long?
As if you couldn't resist to be that strong
So DON'T RIP

Turn it on till it shatters
Don't regret the lies you've made just remember don't retread the games you played
Stolen ladders
Don't regret the hints you took just remember justice fed on ancient hooks

One shot and you blew it, two shots and you blew it, five shots and you blew it
One shot and you blew it, two shots and you blew it, five shots and you blew it
One shot and you blew it, two shots and you blew it, five shots and you blew it
Easy pattern to spot, why'd it take so long?
As if you couldn't resist to be that strong
So DON'T RIP

Why'd it take so long?
As if you couldn't resist to be that strong

Gandhi

Centuries remain the same
Victory is choosing who to blame
Whoever kills the most gets to do it again
History Erodes But Love Remains

Don't want to be Genghis Khan
Don't want to be Napoleon
Don't want to be the pride of the Pentagon
If you want to be a man
Gandhi is the only man to be

Never Stopping Never

Struggle keeps you knowing where your limits are
Never stopping never lets you count your scars
Hold the pages with your breath what you can't avoid
Isn't worth your time but still makes the biggest noise
So much waiting still to do what did you expect
Never stopping never made much of you yet
It's not the point to keep right up with time
It'll pass you anyway 

It goes away
The only thing you never wanted them to say
It goes astray
You're gonna end up cold and rotting anyway

Put the future to the fore once your brain unlocks
Never stopping never lets you pick the locks
Truth reduced to all the things you never could prove wrong
Redirect your indecision because you're too strong
All the awkwardness that seemed so obvious
Never stopped you ever coming off far worse
It's not the point sit and wait till it all comes true
What you want is what you'll be

It goes away
The only thing you never wanted them to say
It goes astray
You're gonna end up cold and rotting anyway

It goes astray
You're gonna end up cold and rotting anyway

Drain

Girl she don't believe in me
I want to grow my roots are choking me
World has got no time for me
Is it the bitter taste of bitterness I feel
Good times passed me by so fast
In summer's darkness I ruined it at last

That was when I didn't fall into my bed
I wasn't stuck behind the traffic in my head

She drains me

A god, I tried to walk on clouds
Angel rain came and washed away the crowds
Pain, not written in her eyes
But whispered inbetween her thighs
Back in time, I could hear her call
I'm torn down from heaven as the angel rain falls

Like an ancient god this king is torn and dead
And now I'm talking to the demons that you bred in my head

And I can't see
And I can't breathe

As it invites me to bathe in sin
I wash its dead eyes off like skin
Shedding as the night begins
The wreckage of the night before
In all is horror, all its gore
Carcass spread across the floor
Just as I can take no more
She comes to me
As an angel, as a dream
Spreading kisses on the sores
Picking up the pieces from the floor
The world won't drain me anymore

All The Saxophones

When all the better things are focussed
And every effort works first time
Determination seems liquid
Does she need a reason to smile?
The world gets wired after nightfall
Go where the sounds are pounding fine
She's got the time and place sussed
And the ascension feels sublime 

Would you enjoy forgivness for the things you've never done?
Almost forgotten how much fun this all could be
She keeps on revolving in the joy that fills her skin
She's feeling fine

She got all the saxophones to meet her when she got there
She's got all of everything
She knows, she knows
She makes all the jaws drop only smirking at the owners
She makes every sane man sing
She knows, she knows 

And all the hopeful come before her now
As if they matter what she where
Whose fascination has she stepped in?
As if she's likely to care 

Would you enjoy forgiveness for the battles never won
Almost amazed but still more puzzled than amused
She keeps on revolving in the joy she's stepping
She's feeling fine

She got all the saxophones to meet her when she got there
She's got all of everything
She knows, she knows
She makes all the jaws drop only smirking at the owners
She makes every sane man sing
She knows, she knows

I love you and everything you turn me into
I love you and everything you do

She got all the saxophones to meet her when she got there
She's got all of everything
She knows, she knows
She makes all the jaws drop only smirking at the owners
She makes every sane man sing
She knows, she knows 

Cheating

Try to make it seem like Easter
Forget how much I eat
The proof was never thought of
Spend the weekend counting bedsores
Cover over everything
Except what I'm not scared of

And I'm cheating
And I'm cheating
And I lie

Try to make it seem like summer
Watch my skin peel away
There's nothing underneath me
Fake laugh and no-one spots it
Blank eyes but still awake
There's still no need to worry

And I'm cheating
And I'm cheating
And I lie
When I find my way home I'll be safe
I'll bitterly regret the day it happens
When every single debt has been repaid
I'll happily and wilfully forget I ever breathed

No wake up call, no wonder
The only pride is in the sweetness of the letdown
Try to make it seem like New Year
As they get closer together I dream of days I never was a part of

And I'm cheating
And I lie

When I find my way home I'll be safe
I'll bitterly regret the day it happens
When every single debt has been repaid
I'll be happy because that's what's supposed to happen
Because that's what's supposed to happen
Because that's what's supposed to happen

How does it make it easier to take when even the dreams are of limitation?
Not being brave, just being angry
At all the times you thought you were all the things you wanted
were only circumstance
Writing rules and hoops you jumped through
It's easy to lie and no-one trusts you
Liars are incapable of love or desire, just side stepping everything,
the best ones believe themselves, 
what kind of search for truth have you had when all the pitfalls just made a mockery of you...

Stupidity City

Same old conversation like icepicks grab hold
Sundried situation and in no time you're sold
Then she smiled
Stupid reason, had to lose some, self abuse done
Now she's gone out
Lesson learned now
More subdued sounds every day

Boredom used to be a friend of mine
It's easy to leave a niggling friend behind

Learn as you burn and it's ruining summer
People in love look especially smug

He got She now Caveman happy
No Brains No Headaches
All that matters is what makes you fatter baby
No Brains No Headaches
Blow before you roll
It's good luck or so I'm told
No backaches
The city is your skin, scratch the scabs away
No Brains No Headaches

Steamed up, lose the accent proudly more every day
The thicker the makeup the thicker the cracks that should stay
Kick still down, order given, temper driven, unforgiven
Undermined, thrown out, score card scored out
Clamp the new pout firmly in place

Details used to be a friend of mine
It's easy to leave a niggling friend behind

Learn as you burn and it's ruining summer
People in love drink as much as they're worth

Boom and crash now every day is black
No Brains No Headaches
All that matters is what cuts the chatter bitch now
No Brains No Headaches
Suck before you bleed I'll be everything you need
No toothaches
The city is your skin, scratch the scabs away
No Brains No Headaches

Conscience used to be a friend of mine
It's easy to leave a dumbfuck friend behind

Learn as you burn and it's ruining summer
People in love talk as if the room's bugged

God's trying to wash this town away
Body bronzing, body body bronzing
Bringing bringing it on come on come on
Body bronzing
Yeah

It's fucking halloween already
A baboon always picks a mirror to play with
Thatcher comin' 'atcha'
It's halloween all fucking ready

Stops

The air shifts and the ground dissolves
The crowd around becomes part of the walls
She's moving but her eyes are fixed
Mouthing something you can't have missed

I want you
You want me too
No excuse
You're coming home with me

Smile so sweet
Lips you'll never get sick of kissing
Clasps your hand
Leads you on to remember what you're missing
Grabs your neck
Your head's buzzing but not for nothing
Brings it on
Gets you going and stops in the middle
Stops in the middle
stops in the middle and makes you want it more

Still Stunned

Cavemen shooting and monkeys still diluting every truth that they came to know
Needs rerouting and constantly disputing, "still solve each pain with a throw"
Boom time, sounds fine, ligament
Feels fine, doom time, live a bit
No point asking if all you could be lacking is all that you cannot know
Break your silence and forget your hell
Hope your conscience serves you just as well
No excuse for only trying hard

He's no fun, so you're talking as if he's God's own son
Got some? None? Well, who cares, there's nothing we haven't done
She's still stunned and she's smiling, stunning everyone
Toking peace, like it works, like you want it to be just one

Break your promise the time is now upon us to forget what you aim to be
Map your freedom but leave them where you need them, the relief's looking bare to me
What's worse, you're cursed, puckered up
His thirst, your curse, covered up
Half of everyone's constantly professional mask that you aim to see
Comb your product to a glossy sheen
Keep your substance hidden down between
No excuse for losing all the cards 

He's no fun, so you're talking as if he's God's own son
Got some? None? Well, who cares, there's nothing we haven't done
She's still stunned and she's smiling, stunning everyone
Toking peace, like it works, like you want it to be just one
Like you want it to be just one

Took too long to stop
Not long enough to stop the fire that he's stuck in 

He's no fun, so you're talking as if he's God's own son
Got some? None? Well, who cares, there's nothing we haven't done
She's still stunned and she's smiling and stunning everyone
Toking peace, like it works, like you want it to be just one
Like you want it to be just one
Like you want it to be just one

The Presence of Angels

Potency reduces me
Efficiency sickens me
Being so busy with so much can go wrong
Pray you are capable
Pray you are capable
Pray you are capable
Time won't save me

The more that I wanted the more that I lost
The presence of angels never taught me a lot

Justice confuses me
Replenished in lethargy
Been so dizzy with so much going on
Weep for the godless
The more you hear the less you care
Weep for the godless
Time won't change me

The more that I wanted the more that I lost
The presence of angels never taught me a lot

Stuck to your skin, tasting every part of you
Looking for guilt like a theory you had to prove
Stake every consequence
Let them guess, they won't mind
The more you ingest the more you get rid of her
The more you relax being stupid gets easier
Send in the safety nets
Let them guess, they won't mind

The more that I wanted the more that I lost
The presence of angels never taught me a lot

Stuck to your skin, tasting every part of you
Looking for guilt like a theory you had to prove
The more you ingest the more you get rid of her
The more you relax being stupid gets easier
Send in the safety nets
Let them guess, they won't mind
Stake every consequence
Let them guess, they won't mind

Mister Number Five 

You got the meat
You got the muscle
You've got the crew
You got the engine
You got the hustle
You've got the clue
You can make it wrong
You can make it wrong without even noticing

You got the access
You got the retreads
You've got the clamps
You got the entrance
You got the access
You got the ramps
You can make it wrong
You can make it wrong without even noticing

Just go, don't know what it means or what it's meant to
Wish I'd learned more, hard to tell when no-one checks you
Breakneck respect, never doing what they'd expect you to
Half done, what fun you had that was like it was meant to 

You got the acquisition
You got the proposition
You can make it wrong
You can make it without even noticing

Just go, don't know what it means or what it's meant to
Wish I'd learned more, hard to tell when no-one checks you
Breakneck respect, never doing what they'd expect you to
Half done, what fun you had that was like it was meant to 

Still got the same brain

Just go, don't know what it means or what it's meant to
Wish I'd learned more, hard to tell when no-one checks you
Breakneck respect, never doing what they'd expect you to
Half done

What fun you had Mr. Number Five
Loudest stride alive
DIsassemble
Disassemble, it's deafening
Disassemble, it's deafening
It's deafening
Disassemble

Solve

So much for scams
One step behind you all the way
So much for souls
I'd like to think mine got away
So much forbidden for the young
Temptation not yet overdone
So much for extra and unique
All you need is all that keeps you weak

You want it bruised but its too shallow to lose it
Scheming for justice or just for the practice
You want it stable and it stabs like its playful
Shatter the ideal and hide when its too real
Nothing's solved

If nothings solved absolution's insoluble
Resolve to loosen the truth and dissolve your excuse
Reduce the distance and gleam of the wonderful
Replace the leap with the crawl to delay what needs solved

I hope it spills over into love and you hate it once it's gone
I hope it spills over into love and you hate it once it's gone

So much for luck
All risks removed and still denied
So much for slack
I'd like to save my own design
So much forgotten for a while
Before forgiveness caves in style
So much for easy promises
All you need is all you can retrieve

You wanted double and it burst in the middle
Screaming for perfect and purr when you get it
You wanted passion it's on tap but it's clashing
Wishing for retreads, to be where you can't get
Nothing's solved

If nothings solved absolution's insoluble
Resolve to loosen the truth and dissolve your excuse
Reduce the distance and gleam of the wonderful
Replace the leap with the crawl to delay what needs solved 

I hope it spills over into love and you hate it once it's gone
I hope it spills over into love and you hate it once it's gone
I hope it spills over into love and you hate it once it's

Beautiful Soup

It's inevitable and always was
Cold and sharp and without remorse
Not one reason to make it clear 'cept the very reason that brough us here...
Jealousy die cold-hearted, ambition die false-started
Play the game, forget the score, shatter and mould him, lower yourself, repeating the cure 

Flatter the ignorance, perhaps that's why we're still the same
Scratching for details, for anything keeping me sane
Shatter the process, why can't I let it end like the rest?
Blink away withdrawal at the sound of your breath

Too much to say, to tired to try
Won't wipe away, she's burned on my eyes
I'm always her's, she never was mine
She knows my voice, try to make it work this time 

Sickening replaced by cold
Some into something has to hold
Not one reason to keep it real 'cept the very thing that makes us feel...
Ignorance, die in real-time, arrogance, die and feel fine
Play the game, forget the score, shatter and mould him, lower yourself, repeating the cure 

Flatter the ignorance, perhaps that's why we're still the same
Scratching for details, for anything keeping me sane
Shatter the process, why can't I let it end like the rest?
Blink away withdrawal at the sound of your breath

Too much to say, to tired to try
Won't wipe away, she's burned on my eyes
I'm always her's, she never was mine
She knows my voice, try to make it work this time 

Na na na na na na na na na na na
La la la la la la la la la la la
Beautiful soup is all I ever could use
Beautiful soup is all I ever could use
Beautiful soup is all I ever could get from you 

Among The Waves

Among the waves
Takes me back to summer days
Splash and rays
Friday nights when we got paid
Up to my neck and you tell me you can't survive
My friend he died
Because he couldn't decide where he wanted to hide from the bright lights
From the not-quite-rights

Can't stop the noise in me 

Among the waves
I'm breathing teeth and screaming mother
Among the graves
I'm drinking salt and tasting butter
Among the waves
You live the lie and pay the price
Among the graves
My love dies and screams like ice
Among the drunk
I'm living but I'm not alive
So much has shrunk
I'm driven but I lost my drive
I'll make a beautiful wreck
You can tip me on the other side
Too late for pride
Because they couldn't subside from a fool who tried to stay upright
In a wave of spite

And there's nobody praying for me

Among the waves
I'm breathing teeth and screaming mother
Among the graves
I'm drinking salt and tasting butter
Among the waves
You live the lie and pay the price
Among the graves
My love dies and screams like ice 

What's the best time to cry when nothing is appropriate?
Try to squeeze a reply
Wait until its too late
Try to ignore that there are things that I won't miss
Undermined and undefined
The kindest blunders left behind 

Among the waves
I'm breathing teeth and screaming mother
I'm drinking salt and tasting butter
You live the lie and pay the price
My love dies and screams like ice
Does your mother remember this?
