And it begins Grit teeth, show grin Three in, two out What's this about? Root cause, tied bound Bury in ground Lay seeds on bed All comes to head Rip out my heart it will still keep on beating on Rip out and tear it in half Rip out my heart it will still keep on beating on Rip out and fuck on one half Over, fight won Gloves off, undone Three lost, who lives Nothing to give Recall, dig deep Can't find still seek Inner turmoil Flowers get soiled

The day is golden but there's nothing for me I feel much better when I'm balls deep in all the sleaze I like the sounds and I like the style I want to wait in here for a dirty smile We come alive when the day is done Open our eyes as the darkness comes Paradise in the setting sun The night is ours and it's all wrong Our knees are popping and we're starting to sway Our heads are nodding but we can't hear a word they say Playing games and we like it that way All that matters is tonight we all feel OK We're going hard and we're going strong We've gone too far just to turn it off I want to feel and its all I've got We sowed a seed in the setting sun No turning back its already grown I like your smile and I like your song So tell me now what you really want So tell me now what you really want Tell me what you really, really want I know it won't mean anything but sometimes that can be just fine And there's not much that it can bring but there's not much harm in us trying I feel closer skin on skin and somehow less alone So lets devour each other's lust before the morning dulls our soul One more for the morning after One more for the morning after

I never knew what I wanted to be I guess it never really mattered to me No one told me what I ought to believe I never thought it was something I'd need As the world keeps spinning in its space I'm dreaming of eternity What happens to the lives that go to waste Something better I've got to believe Here we go again The way it's always been Here we go again Dismissing everything As I look up into the sky at night I wonder if we're going to meet again sometime I never looked for a reason why I always thought it was part of life It's hard to look death straight in the eye Sometimes loss helps us realise

Taste Of It 04:49
There goes another day Won't be back again Try to look away rather than see what's happening On the back burner Is where your dreams are sat Nothing ventured, nothing gained; remember saying that? All the time you spent Trying to break down the wall Did you really think you had the strength to make it fall? Now you're washed up Got no fight left at all Take your gloves off, son; let them take it all Running out of time The grains are sliding away Don't believe in luck Or pre-determined fate Wanna feel the light Shining on your face Wanna feel the light Want another taste of it Taste of it Here we go again As they get away Trying to justify why today won't be the day Never questioning What some people say Want it bigger but there's always something in the way When you look back On all that you've ever done Will you think that this all that you could become? What is it? What are you really running from? Put your gloves back on; show them how it's done Running out of time The grains are sliding away Don't believe in luck Or pre-determined fate Wanna feel the light Shining on your face Wanna feel the light Want another taste... Taste... Taste... Taste... Dissatisfaction When nothing changes Buying disaster For entertainment Wanna break free From the confusion When we're controlled by An illusion Running out of time The grains are sliding away Don't believe in luck Or pre-determined fate Wanna feel the light Shining on your face Wanna feel the light Want another taste of it Taste of it Taste of it

I don't understand the way you think I can't relate it to anything I guess you'll always be a mystery (spin it around) The way you hide all your thoughts from me and when I try to get into your mind I never know what I'm going to find You tell me things that I want to hear (spin it around) I need to know what I'm doing here Each time I think I've seen it Spin it around yeah, yeah you spin it around When I'm almost on to it Spin it around, yeah yeah you spin it around Each time I think I've got it Spin it around yeah yeah you spin it around You keep on spinning me around and round and round I don't know what you want from me I can't be sure what you even see How can we live our lives so shallowly (spin it around) I need to know what you really think There's something sick in the way you lie The way they flow makes me wonder why I let myself fall into this (spin it around) So swallowed up by the emptiness I'm starting to get dizzy I'm feeling sick inside The way you keep spinning me Plays havoc with my mind

Come Alive 03:59
Shot you want a shot. Yeah, yeah let's have a shot Drop, another drop... well just a little drop Shot you want a shot. Yeah, yeah let's have a shot Drop, another drop... well just a little drop Come alive, come alive, show me you're alive You're shutting down and it's so frustrating Talk to me, talk to me, tell me what you see I'd let you be but I'm tired of waiting Acting like it will never be over Holding hands as we crash through the night A lot of love, overcome by the wonder I want to savour this moment for life Dancing forever as the sun comes up Acting like lovers as the world gives up on us You are alone and I know There could be love in our bones Let's find a way to let go Let's find a way to come alive The morning's come and the world is shining The sea is strong as the waves crash down Everyone's got their own fire burning The night is done and there's no hope now

All I need to know is what is really real All the lies keep the truth from ever being revealed There's something wrong with the way that we view this place When you're paranoid if you question what the papers say No I don't think it's all one big conspiracy But there are things that still don't make sense to me You can't tell me what news I'm allowed to see I'm capable to decide my stance critically Moving on as the grip grows stronger Will our voices be heard any longer If we're told what news we're allowed to see How can this be called a democracy Now their lies are getting louder They're trying to sell us anything Analyse the chitter chatter Analyse the lines sown in between Analyse the lines sown in between It's funny how we forget so easily Let the past be the past and live happily There are things we accept that we'll never see People lie, people die, we just let it be And the words are getting stronger They're trying so hard to be believed We don't hear them any longer All we hear is the lines sown in between Some of us have been turning away from All the fear that's been spread over time By the ones who control the money By the ones who want to control our minds Some of us have been getting wiser Tuning out and starting to wake up We can see the old ways crumble Can't they see we've already had enough Already had enough Always looking for a way out Spin the story until the truth doesn't exist Always looking for a way out I see you falling, I see you starting to lose your grip Tuning out and starting to wake up

Washing Over 04:49
All the times that I stuck up for you All the times that I thought I was in the wrong I should have heard the truth be spoken All the times that I tried to hold you But your heart was already moving on I should have let my eyes be opened You. You were somewhere else I. I was blaming myself As the nights as the nights grow colder As my world keeps crashing down I don't care I don't even want to see you I should have known that I never knew you I should have known that you were somebody else I only wish that I'd seen through you We. We fall apart again and I don't want to start again I'm falling out of love In and out of love Don't come back there's nothing left to say The dreams we had seem a thousand miles away Your weak excuses coming much too late I'm letting go of all the anger I know it's hard to let the good times go But they've been gone since long ago You'll always be a part of me I know But I don't ever want to see you We wasted time but time's still on our lives It could have meant something in another life Some people stick around others pass by You fit into the latter I still see you when I close my eyes But your picture's fading in my mind I don't want to miss your touch at night no no not now it's over All the times that I tried to tell you All the times that I tried to tell you that we'd be OK, that we'd be OK All the times that I tried to help you All the times that I tried to help you by seeing things your way, no matter how strange All the times that I could have seen it All the times that I should have seen it, from miles away, from miles away All the times that I tried to tell you All the times that I tried to tell you that we'd be OK, that we'd be OK It's washing over now I can see what it really means Keeps washing over, bring back messed up memories It's washing over, now I can see what it really means Keeps washing over, bringing back memories, that I don't want to see
