Flotsam
05:33
|
|||
|
Looking out across the fields
Feeling insecure
Like the start of a thunderstorm
Trepidation
The shape of things to come
Leaving things I know and see
For a new beginning
Drifting like flotsam
How it used to be
Invades my eyes
No memory of our time remains
We'll re-evaluate our pain
We'll never feel this way again
We'll never feel this way
No memory of our time remains
I can't withstand the silence
We'll re-evaluate our pain
I can't withstand the silence
We'll never feel this way again
We'll never feel this way again
We'll never feel this way again
I can't withstand the silence

Surround

He likes to catch fish on his day off
When the stocks are high
He never loses hope for the next one
He's an optimistic guy
But there's a helluva thing
And the water does sing
I will keep you safe from the truth
I will save you from your bad self
I will surround you my friend
I will surround you
He's consumed by his terrible secret
And no-one must know
So he shares it with only the water
and he whispers to the flow
But it's a helluva thing
And the water does sing
I will keep you safe from the truth
I will save you from your bad self
When the skies grow dark
The light fades from your eyes
I will surround you my friend

My Satellite
05:00
|
|||
|
I been walking round and round for three days now
I got some stormy weather on my mind
There's never a dull moment it's a carnival
There's always something, something new to find
I been looking at the stars in the daytime (I've been)
You know it's a kinda gloomy time of year (You know)
Sometimes I can't remember what I've done or said (Sometimes)
But there's one thing, one thing that I know's clear
You, you show me the way (you show me, you show me the way)
When I go off
You're my compass, my radar,
my satellite (satellite)
You, you show me the way (you show me, you show me the way)
When I go off
You're my compass, my radar,
my satellite (my satellite)
You show me
You show me the way

Feel the noise, feel the noise
Feel the noise, feel the noise
Feel the noise, feel the noise
Feel the noise, feel the noise, feel the noise

Hurt

|
When I'm with you
I can't resist you
When we're apart
It hurts my heart
Oooh
When I'm alone
I'm on my phone
None above you
My pictures of you
My obsession
It's you I'm dreaming of
Though we've never met
I worship at the feet of love
If you could see me
You'd want to know me
We'd be so perfect
Our shared intellect
We'd be so happy
Living in ecstasy
No-one would affect you
Coz I'll protect you
My obsession
It's you I'm dreaming of
Though we've never met
I worship at the feet of love
My obsession
It's you I'm dreaming of
Though we've never met
I worship at the feet of love

Stain
06:23
|
|||
|
You've got no compassion
You blame everyone but yourself
You show no respect
You just want to run things
For you and your friends
Your life is so tragic
You've turned ignorance into a virtue
Now we're all in danger
You open your mouth and tensions rise
You know we will fight you
You know we will fight you again and again
And we will defeat you
Destroy and unseat you
To wash out the stain
Stain...
You know we will fight you
You know we will fight you again and again
And we will defeat you
Destroy you
Stain...

Listen (to the People)
03:40
|
|||
|
I know it isn't popular
I only want to hear you scream
Don't sit on your arse and cogitate
Wake up and fulfil your dream
Why don't you listen to the people?
There is power in our hands
Why don't you listen to the people?
The quiet life is over, it's time to make a stand
It's not about the way we live
It's clearly a political choice
So take the beat to the street
And let the world hear your voice
Why don't you listen to the people?
We have power in our hands
Why don't you listen to the people?
The quiet life is over, it's time to make a stand
Make a stand, time to make a stand
Why don't you listen,listen to the people now?
Why don't you listen,listen to the people now?
Why don't you listen,listen to the people now?
Why don't you listen,listen to the people now?
Why don't you listen,listen to the people now?
Why don't you listen,listen to the people now?
Why don't you listen?

Remember (My Love)
05:40
|
|||
|
My friend she was a victim too
Trying to achieve some normality
In the end she made the final choice
Now no-one ever hears her voice
I've got so much to give
And no way to give it
So I'll run away and hide
Stay away from the judging eyes
I missed you then and I'm missing you still
And so I will remember you my love
While I've a breath and a beat in my heart
Now we're apart
I'll remember you my love
I wouldn't wish it on you
But one day you may be the same as me
And I truly hope by then
The world is controlled by better men.
I missed you then and I'm missing you still
And so I will remember you my love
While I've a breath and a beat in my heart
Now we're apart
I'll remember you my love
My love
Now we're apart
I'll remember you my love

Shrine
03:23
|
|||
|
I'll build a shrine to you
In the underpass
The flowers will be mine
On the granite wall
I'll build a shrine to you
I'll build it high
I'll visit every day
I'll do it in my mind
I'll build a shrine to you
Sheltered from the sun
The candles lose their flames
Sullied by the grime
I'll build a shrine to you

Start Again
04:07
|
|||
|
It's my point of view
It's not the same as the one you knew
This time I'll make you understand
I'm right here waiting
(Two three four five, it's time to feel alive
Seven eight nine ten, I'm ready to start again
Two three four five, it's time to feel alive
Seven eight nine ten, I'm ready to start again)
We've both moved on
we're not the same any more
And I thought I should let you know
I'm right here waiting
When I was young I was out of my mind
I lost my mind
Now I am sure
I've cleared the demons
Start again
I'm ready to start again
Looking back at the times we had
All the feelings that we put aside
All the nights that I slept alone
And the cruelty you showed me
(Two three four five, it's time to feel alive
Seven eight nine ten, I'm ready to start again
Two three four five, it's time to feel alive
Seven eight nine ten, I'm ready to start again, ready to start again...)
Now I am sure
I've cleared the demons
Start again
I'm ready to start again
Now I am sure
I've cleared the demons
Start again
I'm ready to start again
When I was young I was out of my mind
I lost my mind
Now I am sure
I've cleared the demons
I'll start again
I'm ready to start again
