Gloria 02:57
It’s a cold black night, you know you gotta go everyone and everything you know, it’s ok He’s waiting there to play all the people looking down now look away don't you,fall in disarray hold your store, as she’s walking out the door Gloria, we could play it out tonight When the forest fires, burn the house down, light the night as the moonlight burning red Thoughts may sway, as you clear your smoking head Walk right, look left, don’t say anything Idle talk, you could be the queen twisting knives, trailing on the floor you’re stalling Be bold, be told, all the rules are drawn hold your breath, the curse that you have sworn Don’t let out, don’t go letting it all out now just as… Gloria, sings excelses deo trite As the forest fires, burn the house and light the night till the sunrise burns your eyes All the people arise, claim their empty lives As we’re trying to be Kings With no Angels left to sing Gloria, if we make it home tonight Through the forest fires, take the heat out of the night and we’ll go where we can grow Don’t change my mind, glory be to me on high All this has gone

I Was Alone 02:06
I was hoping to catch you now, on a point to clarify i dreamt about the dreams I’ve had when I’m having a good time But you…. You were there, you and I Now I’m alone Ive been banging on my face now, till I’m, black and blue My eyes half shut, my teeth are chipped, I’m not a sight for you to prove…. What you wanted to do I was alone now I’m creeping through the cold streets, I’m the song of pale moonlight The heinous fiend, who stole your dreams, and I tied you to the night who knew…. I could be right all along I am alone We were riding in a desert, on a horse of broken bones The bare stripped earth, my final curse, to walk back on my own cos you…. You could choose where to go Yes you…. You were never on your own Yes you…. You could choose to do right Now you’re alone.

i was feeling good, really dealing good (Feeling good, he’s dealing good) Im the king of the cut, swinging in the hood (King dick, king of the cut) Now we’re dealing alright, then we’re getting out yes we’re doing alright, then we’re getting out I was feeling so suave , real suave (He’s so suave, oh so suave) I Got a souped up barge, oh it’s such a barge (He’s got a pumped up barge) Now we’re feeling so good, and we’re getting out Yes we’re dealing it good, should be getting out Wow I caught my reflection, my hair looks good (His new hair style , looks so just) But as I coiffured it back the whole boat it shook (Oh dear me, you know its a bust) We were feeling so good, should have gotten out We were dealing so good, we were getting out now we’re stuck in the fud, we’re not getting out

Lost elated, tooth of gold, everything that you should know as hope now fades away He is cast aside as laughing loud, with thoughts that mother, oh so proud said ‘Oh my darling, it’s so charming’ who’s gonna be the one you turn to now? When the things that you left out are going away And who’s gonna be the one who holds you down? when the feelings all around you Can’t disguise betrayal half the time you thought you’d earned, left alone you got so burnt And oh now, things are gonna change he’s waited there everyday, for one last chance, just you might say, but oh now Hold my hand again who’s gonna be the one who fills the holes? And pains that you worked out now tasting, good for nothing Who’s gonna be the one who’s left alone and you can’t help feel outdone, now It’s another day we walked like children lost in time, eyes tight shut into the crime We pray that someone else will come they’re laughing at you echoes ring, They look devils with angels wings but oh this body can’t be stolen Who’s gonna be the one that lets you down when the hope you had is clutching life again Who’s gonna be the one you turn to now who will straighten it all out to live another day But I can’t see anything? can’t see anything No you can’t see anything, more than this just lost lost again We’re lost again Hope time will help you out again

Top Line 02:29
Top lie, everything you wanna know, everything you wanted for you disguise, every time you wanna cry, everything you wanted to prove we could be…..the gods, all sat above, playing the game then we would see……you, sat down below, in all your shame First lie, everything you did though you never really said it was true top line, making up your own and I should have asked if I could be you Choose….you know, you get to pick a side if you lose……the chance, to run, when you should hide All I want is the choice to be mine Yet I know that I’m living a lie top line, everything you wanna know, everything is going ok Check fine, all you wanna telling me more & you can do it again & you can choose……you know, its not your goal, it’s tough for you And you can choose, you know its not your goal that’s telling you

One look was all it to took, for his heart to be so truly struck As the background fades away change was in her heart, everything she lost then fell apart With the people that surround her sweating in the dark, all of her memories depart Once the feelings welling up. Consumed her totally, and ripped her soul apart for a moment there’s a spark, as another act its starts Then the curtain hides the actors in the dark pain, it never lasts, if they’re just gonna sit right back and laugh So he kept it all inside, so long as he could ask times she had to try, fold the thoughts so neatly up inside In case anyone could see her dreams and fantasies naked in the rain, she could be falling out again As the fallen trees around her, lifting her up to feel the pain as she prays, for the wretched souls to save, or another to enslave For himself,,,, to hide, oh to hide faith was in his head, till she wrapped him up to save his breath And she was looking back, at some lost lies she’d left behind hiding in the feelings, like the storm, for Maddy & Niall empty rumbles in the distance, as they press together one last time Don’t think, you can run away from this, no we can’t avoid, the last...the last.. the last lonely fucking kiss

Hold it still, everyone, you kill Could be looking at you now, from the start wrap your life round it will steal with pride When you’re trying, to hide it, for everyone you could be the same man, but you’re empty understand, all alone You’ve still got the same hands, but they’re different somehow, and you know years they pass, and you find you laugh Just a little, bit less, than yesterday time will tell, under an empty shell yet you wanted it all just to get away You are still the same man, but you hold it in your hands, and you pray you can’t find the same words, that you could, so easily to say Cut by cut, you can’t help but look as your eyes, you just keep them, tight shut You can find the same words, that you said once to that girl, for the first time you are still the same man, that she helped to understand, at his first crime Day by day, its all just eaten away but you’re still, the same man, from the first time

Take it as a warning, im not crying out for help Every single morning, its too much to find yourself running through the streets of faceless freaks I can be quite boring, I get sick of me myself she can see you yawning and the timing doesn’t help Sitting on an excuse way too long, now its sounding like a lie squeeze into an excuse for a song, I try Time after time, you’re changing your mind time after time, we’re living our lie Running off forever, to find out you left your phone wondering if ever, they'll even notice you have gone Walking all alone now just an hour dreaming of not being, just ceasing to be scared Drifting from an action, to this motion to be chaired put it to the vote and cross yourself, go burn the ballet box Everything can wait another day Time after time, you’re changing your mind time after time, we’re living our lie Chatting to a bald man, as you fault your own split ends worrying for hours, if he considers you a friend Waiting for a heart to mark your post, now you know you’re loved again pitying the girl you hate the most, well almost.. Time after time, you’re changing your mind time after time, we’re living our lie

Creme Egg 02:38
We’re still punching the ceiling, as you’re feeling your way In a cardboard box, sodden in the rain and all the people dashing back and forth, with not a care for care and what its worth Just one more click and i’m all done, its mine we gotta find our way out of this to make it right We’ve gotta find our way out of this to make it right When you can’t stay no longer, if you’re ever alone But I’ve a feeling that you knew it all the time you gotta look for yes in someone else Keep your thoughts in check with someone else love, like, peck from someone else, defines, mine if you’re gonna find your way out of this to make yourself We gotta find a way to pitch it to ourselves do..do..dooo I’m gonna make me feel alright…. Gotta bend our way out of this, maybe trend our way to bliss..to make it right Gotta find my way out of this to make it right gotta find my way out of this to make it right

This Leg 03:01
Standing on one leg, pick up the pieces of what’s left Remember him silent as the man, he stood alone on shifting sands Upon two hands pray, one final chance just to explain One chance , don’t let it wash away one moments chance now I’d explain The looks he’d had at times, stood daily chanting out his rhymes to empty heads No hearts and selfish minds, robotic motions can’t decide remembers her pray, one final chance just to explain One chance , don’t let it wash away one moments glance now I can say, go Its wrenching me apart to watch him sinking for his art Just say its done I pray, one final chance just to explain One chance , don’t let it wash away one moments glance now I’d explain If I could stay

The Valley 03:19
I sought the answers, in a night of restless drink I was holding, steady, just a little more to think As if the faith was keeping, me on the road As I walk through the valley, I can feel the path erode Hold on, don’t go, sometimes, it’s so slow Stand up, sit down, spin a web and feed the clown I found the Golden Goose, so slit it’s neck, still in the noose You sold contagion, as a way to me slim In this two room flat, I’m sat, hiding all my sin You gave me voices, so I’d have a single friend But the deals that we made, prove that friendships have to end, oh yes Hold on, don’t laugh, sometimes, I’m a twat Stand up, don’t run, blow your dreams to kingdom come We found the Magic Beans, grind them up in evil scheme Drink Me, Grow Big, You find that life’s another trick so… Change me just a little bit and face the fact you don’t know shit, now Change it all a little bit and face the fact, you don’t know shit I’m running out of time, my shadow’s fading fast Though my breathing now shallow, it might not quite be my last I will forgive you, just as you may condemn me In a pitifull rememberance or a trite obituary Hold on, don’t shout, sometimes, we all fall out Sit down, Stand up, the Holy Grail’s a plastic Cup I’ve got my seven league boots, so stuff your tune on your magic flute It’s done, it’s all fair, the fairytale is ended there

Who Will Be? 03:11
who will be playing along with you now, who will be trying to free? favourite times and you owe them somehow, but you never know what you might see laughing it off, no one will scoff, your mental health state is the rage, as you smile gritted teeth, in your only belief, that there's no one else left in the cage. as you're hating the things, that you wanted in life, everyone else is aware but you can't see the wood for the trees now, so you don't know if anyones there. who will be waiting to tell you you're wrong, who will be laughing aloud somebodys creeping between all your thoughts, ..... when youre standing up proud still finding the time and living the lie, knowing that everyones gone though you hate what you find, when youre knowing theyre right, but youre wanting them all to be wrong As you're cursing yourself for the weakness, and you climb on that stool one more time How you wish someone else would come kick it, but you hate when they ask if you mind who is there holding your hand when youre down, who will be kissing your head? who is there taking the life from your mouth, every single last breath. hate ignored , hate distorts, hate is the one thing you hold and youre trying to find, just a light in a mind, and you never want to grow old as youre changing the time on the clocks all around, so you have just one more hour to say i could be here but everything i had, its all just faded away.
