Silence Is Over
03:41
|
|||
Everybody knows there’s nothing more to say
Those around you, getting in the way and in your head
Words surround you but struggle to explain
Why the thoughts are coming but heading like a steam train instead
Somehow you can’t familiarise
Going round in circles each time
Silence is over
You’ve seen it’s all gone
colour it somehow
all that meaning, oh when you gonna break
the warnings coming, a little too late and at your end
Somehow you can’t familiarise
Going round in circles each time
Silence is over
You’ve seen it’s all gone
colour it somehow

Easy Targets
02:59

Don’t fall
Stay on
You know I’d follow
Our innocence is lost
Start thinking
I mean it
You know I’d follow
Our innocence is lost
Say what you want
Call it talking
I know what’s what
This is fighting and blackmail of emotion
Darling it’s time,
You walk out with some truths
You know I’d follow
Our innocence is lost

Devil's Tune
02:57
|
|||
How much would I give for consolation..
But what can I do?
My mouth is dry, my eyes are wide
And pictures of you
Will I ever know where it started?
I can see an end but I can’t see it through
No sleep tonight, the wind and rain
It battered on the windowpane
And I’m a tangled mess again
Of foolish heart and lovers stain
Cold is creeping up under my covers
To feed my woes
Follow I’d better, you to the letter
And see where that goes
Will I ever know where it started?
I can see an end but I can’t see it through
No sleep tonight, the wind and rain
It battered on the windowpane
And I’m a tangled mess again
Of foolish heart and lovers stain
No sleep tonight, the howling moon
& morning is arriving soon
A girl in bed, a waiting room
And in my head a devils tune

Long Way Down
03:13
|
|||
Convince you, and how
I’m folding right now
It’s easy not wise
To see it through your eyes
It’s a long way down
till we are through
so don’t get smart
with your attitude
we’re coasting on through
It’s just what couples do
Still aching for the big love
The one we don’t speak of
It’s a long way down
till we are through
so don’t get smart
with your attitude
whatever your heart says
ignore it, don’t suffer this
It’s a long way down
till we are through
so don’t get smart
with your attitude

What's New
01:59
|
|||
Four little words seem trite
Love as a person ain’t bright
All of the girls saw your hairs and your curls and new
I just can’t do right it right for you
I just can’t do right by you
Whenever I try I always look you in the eye
But I just can’t do it right for you
They said they all knew it well
The waiting around can be hell
Sometime your turn will come round and you’ll learn what’s new
I just can’t do right it right for you
I just can’t do right by you
Whenever I try I always look you in the eye
But I just can’t do right by you

I'll Forgive You
02:36
|
|||
You gave me love
Much more than I’d taken
It left a swelling of the heart
But it was too much
& now left with an aching
Can’t pull the memories all apart
One day I will know what I want from you
One day I will see myself and all that’s true
and maybe then I’ll forgive you
You never stopped
You never stuttered
One little smile and you were gone
And I was rocked
By how much you mattered
But I just couldn’t catch on
One day I will know what I want from you
One day I will see myself and all that’s true
and maybe then I’ll forgive you
Somebody overheard you calling out for me
Convinced you always knew the right way out
Without a foot wrong
One day I will know what I want from you
One day I will see myself and all that’s true
and maybe then I’ll forgive you

Habits
02:30
|
|||
So you fought yourself again
You’re far too good at suffering
You were all forlorn
waiting to be mourning
Those men they want the same
They try in hope then try again
You with all the scorn
Start with a warning
All you ever had
All that wasn’t bad
Couldn’t hold you
All you ever want
Own it in your heart
Could’ve harmed you
Go backwards into starts and fits
When forming all those habits
Nothing untoward
Makes you all bored
They call you out they call you in
They’ll only end up hurting
Up goes the guard
Lovers are forewarned again
All you ever had
All that wasn’t bad
Couldn’t hold you
All you ever want
Own it in your heart
Could’ve harmed you

Stuck On Maybe
02:33
|
|||
See there you are
My new routine
And I want you near me
But I’m stuck on maybe
You oughta know
You oughta know by know
Where I go
You oughta know by now
You got so far
Without pause or reel
So why this wavering
What were you expecting?
You oughta know
You oughta know by know
Where I go
You oughta know by now
Say the word and I’ll be gone
You oughta know
You oughta know by know
Where I go
You oughta know by now

Remains
02:56
|
|||
All hail
All hail me
I won’t be blamed for this
I won’t be blamed for this
It hurts – it should, darling
Won’t ever change
So far, so good darling
You’ll remain
No change
No change here
I won’t be blamed for this
I won’t be blamed for this
It hurts – it should, darling
Won’t ever change
So far, so good darling
You’ll remain
If it takes a little time
If it takes a little time
If it takes a little time
If it takes a little time
