Deadbeat 03:50
Walked out on a deadbeat of a day once again he was the last to get away Caught a glimpse of his reflection in the rain Lost sight on days he thought were here to stay Settled down and built a story of his own Took the chances that he needed to get on Then at once, the ground it started to give way and the cracks grew bigger, deeper day by day Looked in no time to run away looking back see faces as they slip away Walls are crumbling and no one stays the same no use believing that this place will ever change Falling through a roof that time had left alone empty houses stands where once there was a home the storm has passed, but the problem still remain he keeps on moving while others loose their way Feel a sting from the words already said some quite moments spent before he lost the thread once again he sees his shadow in the rain a brand new face and the start of a new day. Looked in no time to run away looking back at faces as they slip away Walls are crumbling and no one stays the same no use believing that this place will never change

Secret World 03:20
Last of the tabloid kings flashing around in your golds chains and cars The end of the party queens fallen and faded your friends start to leave The reign of the post-war dream broken and lost as it's hopes turn to dust and too many magazines feeding and fueling this money machine So take the first road out you're such a simple soul i've heard it all before you're such a simple soul When work is so hard to find privilege and wealth are the keys to the door meritocracy is no more your school tie is all that you seem to applaud Now news papers make the law in coulombs where no one is held to account so lay down your poisoned pens your moment has passed and the readers has gone So take the first road out you're such a simple soul i've heard it all before you're such a simple soul Trow off the corporate chains bulldoze the sprawl that's surrounding our towns Bury the last remains and sing out the songs we've forgotten and lost

The Raven 03:11
The raven soars over the mountain finding it's way to the sea. Clearing a path before her and calling out for me. Seeking a door in the shadow guiding me safe though the dark. Touching a light in the distance calling out for me. Hearing a song through the storm could playing a new melody. Moving to close to the fire that's calling out for me.

Simple Soul 03:10
Last of the speed-boat kings flashing around in your golds chains and cars The end of the tabloid queens fallen and faded your friends start to leave The reign of the post-war dream broken and lost as it's hopes turn to dust and too many magazines feeding and fueling this money machine So take the first road out you're such a simple soul i've heard it all before you're such a simple soul When work is so hard to find privilege and wealth are the keys to the door meritocracy is no more your school tie is all that you seem to applaud Now news papers make the law in coulombs where no one is held to account so lay down your poisoned pens your moment has passed and the readers has gone So take the first road out you're such a simple soul i've heard it all before you're such a simple soul Trow off the corporate chains bulldoze the sprawl that's surrounding our towns Bury the last remains and sing out the songs we've forgotten and lost

The Station 03:10
Let me know what day it is let me know if it to late all the time has slipped away such an awful waist let me know what day it it meet me by the station with the keys to your door take me to the river like we used to do before Well once I was on top I laid out the table cloth I had all my friends to stay and hid it all away once I was on top meet me by the station with the keys to your door take me through the river like we used to do before up at six each day trying hard to make it pay having treatment for my ills relying on the pills up at six each day meet me by the station with the keys to your door take me through the river like we used to do before now it is fifteen years to late drinking whiskey every day then again I see your gaze laughing in my face fifteen years to late meet me by the river with the keys to your door take me through the water like we did the year before

Breathe 03:19
Hearing a crowd out in the street watching the trees burst into life. Marching closer, closer to me feeling the sun high in the sky. Run footsteps are coming. Run hide it away. Burning bridges that stand in their way breath in the clouds high in the sky. People running further each day sensing the flowers burst into life. Run footsteps are coming. Run hide it away Empty streets echoes with fire bringing death back into life. Fighting is over who are the winners breathing hope back into life.

There's my love down in the orchard oh how I wish that I was there there's the house and there's the barn there's the stable door open There's the long branched oak with a green and pleasant look i'll wait in it's shade till my love comes, my love comes there's the harp there's the strings who am I with no one to play there's the lively, careful maid how long till I can win her There's my love down in the orchard oh how I wish that I was there there's the house and there's the barn there's the stable door open

You came in from the cold, left standing on your own Watching from the side not joining in at all. Into the room, Into the room, like what you see, want what you see. Knowing what you know, not seeing anything hearing what you want not learning anything. The tragedy is yours, there is no one there to blame all the time all the time. You don't waste your time, you only just waste mine never take your turn, you always jump the line. Into the room, Into the room, like what you see, want what you see. Knowing what you know, not seeing anything hearing what you want not learning anything. The tragedy is yours, there is no one there to blame all the time all the time. Don't have to fight, cause think you're always right but just remember it's not me who's lost tonight. Into the room, Into the room, like what you see, want what you see Knowing what you know, not seeing anything hearing what you want not learning anything. The tragedy is yours, there is no one there to blame all the time all the time.
