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

Dismissing Everything
04:38
|

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

Spin It Around
03:00
|

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

Chitter Chatter
03:47
|
|||
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
