Regret
03:42
|
|||
Can’t seem to shake this
Empty feeling
That settled in when you left
I try so hard to
Remain distracted
But still these thoughts come again.
I leave my phone on silent
In my pocket but
I can’t help to check
A message comes and
I can’t ignore it so
here I go again.
Things are over
We couldn’t stop it
We couldn’t sort it out
Still every time I
Think about it
A part of me regrets.

Speaking in Tongues
03:41
|

Take a look at my face
Do you know what I'm thinking?
This isn't just a phase of mine
I'm looking straight ahead
With this new direction
And asking is this where I want to be this time?
Are you listening?
Am I making any sense?
Are you listening?
And am I making any sense to you?
Take a word of advice
From someone who knows nothing
All of your opinions come to zero
In the end
The look on your face makes me start doubting
I'm asking is this where we have to end as friends?
You're not listening
And I'm not making any sense
You're not listening
And I'm not making any sense to you and
Do you know what it's like
To open you're mind for just a while
And actually hear what someone else has to say?
Could you try to invite a sense of being real
Beyond this bullshit small-talk you always say?
And do you ever feel like you're speaking another language,
And no one else can understand it?
I open my mouth it's like I'm from some other planet,
Am I speaking another language?
You're not listening
And I'm not making any sense
You're not listening
And I'm not making any sense to you and
Take a word of advice from someone who knows nothing
All of your opinions come to zero in the end

Take Your Coat
04:14
|
|||
I've got nothing to say
Before you walk away
So take your coat and take your hat and don't say sorry
I don't want to hear another word of that
Take your coat and take your hat and don't say sorry
I don't want to hear another word of that from you
I, I've got nothing left to say
So maybe remember something good that I said once
And just take your coat
And take your hat and don't say sorry
I don't want to hear another word of that
Take your coat and take your hat and don't say sorry
I don't want to hear another word of that from you

Out of My Head
03:39
|
|||
I saw you sitting still
Safe beside the window sill
Counting all the people as they walked on down the street
You said 'where are they going?'
I said 'what's the use in knowing
What difference does it make to you or me?'
Well sometimes I've just
Gotta get out of my head, she said
Sometimes I've just got to get out
Looking through a book of thoughts from years before
Trying to fix some point you couldn't make
Posing cryptic questions and I ask,
‘What for?’
And you've always got excuses for more...
Sometimes I've just
Gotta get out of my head, she said
Sometimes I've just got to get out
Oh, sometimes I've just
Gotta get out of my head, she said
Sometimes I've just got to get out

Went to bed with questions in my head
Such a cruel waste of the night
Sent you a card with a photograph
To get a wish out of my mind
You can waste your time
Waste your time
But you won't waste mine
But you won't waste mine
Everything I choose leaves something else behind
And I don't want to turn out the light tonight
If you've got nothing you've got nothing to lose
If you've got everything there's no need to pick or choose
You can waste your time
Waste your time
But you won't waste mine
No you won't waste mine

How Much
04:14
|
|||
The café window is grey with the rain
Cup of coffee to fill the day
I don’t know how much to give away
And somehow I always make these mistakes
How much, is too much
To give or take?
A knock on my door
Just the other day
It had been so long I didn’t know what to say
You told me you couldn’t remember
What you failed to do that day
But could I forgive you for it anyway?
How much, is too much
To give or take?
How much, is too much
To give or take?
Well I sit now
In the lounge
The television here
To talk to me
I shut the door on all the faithless ones
But I think it turned out that no one was ‘good enough’
How much, is too much
To give or take?
How much, is too much
To give or take?

Something Else
04:46
|

No matter how much I
Scrub the floor it’s never clean
No matter how much I
Paint the walls they’re
Never green
No matter how much I take control it’s
Never right
No matter how much I
Think it over it’s never solved
No matter where I go in this town
Wish I was someone else
No matter who I talk to
In this town
Wish they were someone else
Letting go of making up
All these problems
It could be nice
But what would I do then
With all of my time then?
There’s a silver cloud
Between us now
And it’s there for everyone
The truth is shining out now
Brighter than the sun
I don’t want to be who your are
I want to be myself
And I don’t want the things that you want
I want something else.

Lose My Smile
05:56
|
|||
I'm young enough to make mistakes
And old enough to know which risks to take
And if I slip
I'll somehow find my grip
What's the use of holding out
Waiting round until the sun goes down?
There's a million doubts for me to shout out loud
But I'll hold my breath
Better push ahead just one more mile
Before I lose my smile
Lose my smile
Lose my smile again
Blame it on a stupid game
Tell me not to lose my faith
And just before you go, why don't you tell me that you told me so
Yeah you tell me that you told me so
As if I didn't know
But i just hold my breath
Better push ahead just one more mile
Before I lose my smile
Lose my smile
Lose my smile again
Better push ahead just one more mile
Before I lose my smile
Lose my smile
Lose my smile again
There's a million doubts for me to shout out loud
A million doubts for me to shout out loud
Better hold me breath
Better push ahead just one more mile
Before I lose my smile
Lose my smile
Lose my smile again
Better push ahead just one more mile
Before I lose my smile
Lose my smile
Lose my smile again

Shadow of a Mountain
02:58
|
|||
I’m learning things about the world
And things about myself
I grew up in the shadow of a mountain
In the hands of a broken man
And yesterday I lost my best friend
It’s lonely here
Without him
And I find myself
In the shadow of a mountain
Every time I think about him
Yeah, every time I think about him
You don’t really see the world
Much different when you’re small
As when you’re old
It’s just that you think you’ve got more control
There’s an empty space in me
I kept on trying to fill
Maybe it’s a shame to blame it
On those that raised me
Or went away
Hey, hey
I find myself
In the shadow of a mountain
Every time I think about them
Yeah, every time I think about them
And I find myself
In the shadow of a mountain
Every time I think about them
Yeah, every time I think about them

I still dream about you sometimes
When my eyes are closed there’s nowhere for me to hide
I still dream about you sometimes
When my eyes are closed there’s nowhere for me to hide
And when you come to me
Your eyes are all
That I can see
The shadows creep
Across my head
As I lie sleeping in my bed
And when the night time comes
The day time joys are gone at once
Replaced by memories of the past
But only while the darkness lasts
‘Cause I still dream about you sometimes
When my eyes are closed there’s nowhere for me to hide
I still dream about you sometimes
When my eyes are closed there’s nowhere for me to hide
‘Cause I still dream about you sometimes
When my eyes are closed there’s nowhere for me to hide
I still dream about you sometimes
When my eyes are closed there’s nowhere for me to hide
