End Of My Rope
02:02
|
|||
We're told
To hear not
A pin drop
For a moment we forgot
Be bold and headstrong
Or either one
But don't break your own window
So gather the horde
They're like sheep to their slaughter
Who buried your flag and who locked down your border?
Why carry the weight of the world on your shoulders?
Lest we regret
At the end of my rope
Like a flame to the moth
And how can i let you know it
The end of my rope
A saint and a fraud
And i won't relent you know

Silver And Gold
05:58
|

I brought the storm
To drown my good intentions
I brought this on myself again
To you, where you might be
I took the coal to furnace
Keep your fire burning
I shook the stone wall to remove
That 'something in the way'
Look away from me
So unceremoniously
Would have kept you 'til i'm old
But you can't turn silver into gold
I gave you rivers
When all you need is soil
Will always be the waterfall
Never just your stone
I know it ain't easy
Never has and never will be
Let's bury our sorrows until
The escape becomes the kill
Look away from me
So unceremoniously
Would have kept you 'til i'm old
But you can't turn silver into gold
Look straight at me
Which one will it be
Is it your future or a fading memory?
Run away with me
It's not for the world to see
Will you keep me 'til i'm old
If i could turn silver into gold?
I'll be your light, dear
I'll be alright, dear...

New Year's Eve
02:37
|

I’d wish you all the best
But you won’t let me go
From the mess you make out of me and my all
I’d say I don’t regret
That you tortured me so
Can a seed on a withering field grow?
We tried long ago
Yet we lie alone
I’d wish you all the best
But you won’t let me know
I stand still while my hopes stretch on for miles
I still can’t believe
That you tell me i’m naive
Caught up in dreams
We would cautiously get high on
We tried long ago
Yet we lie alone
I won’t betray the love
You’re tired of thinking of
Hold my heavy heart, I plead
I cannot be a home
A thousand miles from my own
And I won’t be long
I’d wish you all the best
But you won’t let me go
All the best
But you won’t let me, no
All the best but you won’t let me go
All the best now
All the best...
I would not trade the love
You’re tired of thinking of
Hold my heavy heart, I plead
I cannot be a home
A thousand miles from my own
And I won’t belong
If we try to reason
How we might be wrong
(For the) deep horizon
We might belong

Old Roads
03:30
|

When I walk these old roads
I can feel home so close
It’s a reminder of ways
A cry for better days
When I walk these rural streets
I can smell the sweet air
Passing through my lungs
Recalling how it felt to be young
We changed through sun and rain
Using knowledge we had to gain
We were the fallen minds of men
Times were better then
When I walk this beaten path
I feel the warmth, I hear them laugh
The lovers we once held so close
The stories at times still untold
When I walk these forgotten shores
I can feel my heart soar
Wishing for a fleeting past
That has come and gone at last
We changed through sun and rain
Using knowledge we had to gain
We were the fallen minds of men
Times were better then

On My Way
04:53
|

I thought it over
I thought it through
I'm digging my grave to bring me back to you
I thought it over
Sobriety
I dug me a grave for my humility
On my way down to greet the holy effigy
Salt into the soil of the evergreen
I thought it over
Now i'm on my own
Remember the last time you sat on the throne
I'm too kind to notice
I'm too blind to see
The reaper is calling
He's calling for me
On my way out of this again
On my way in
To touch the ground
I want to know what it means to be free
This indecision, the death wish of me
I'm on my way
I'm on my way
I'm on my way
On my way

Hell Or High Water
04:00
|
|||
Another night another town
I can’t seem to keep the devil out
Another night another run
It is all just for the fun of it
So come hell or high water
I’m still up for the ride
Come hell or high water
I’ll let the villain decide
No regrets and no mistakes
At this point it is fate
Playing poker with me twice
It’s a deadly step on ice
So come hell or high water
I am not giving in
Come hell or high water
I bow to no king

Roulette
03:31
|
|||
He rises like fire
And lights up the night
Rings like a cannon
Fierceful in flight
She dances like fire
And cries out in fight
You can’t stop watching
You’re feeling alive
If you can’t see it, then I must speak
They will never be yours to keep
Point your gun straight at my head
Let’s play a round of Russian roulette
Who is the devil and who can you trust?
Who turns to gold and who turns to dust?
He blazes through hell
With his leather and boots
You want him to see you
But you’re going to lose
You want her to love you
You can’t let her go
But you fail to realise
She’s not a one man show
If you can’t see it, then I must speak
They will never be yours to keep
Point your gun straight at my head
Let’s play a round of Russian roulette
Who is the devil and who can you trust?
Who turns to gold and who turns to dust?

Luminol
03:34
|

I’m a whisper in the wall
A creaking on the floor
A knock at your door
A thread bare on your coat
The swan song that you wrote
Wherever you roam
But I won’t let you let me go
Until I receive you, morning glow
I’m a bed of remorse
The wind changing course
Holding you close
Like a devil you know
By the side of the room
Mocking your ghost
When clouds of smoke deceive you most
Disguise the wolf in a sheep skin cloak
That day will never come
We carry on, ephemeral
They weren’t ever wrong
You tamed once
Now take me home
I won’t lick your every wound
When I can be your marigold
If I can lift your heavy load
Can I release you of your oath

Lost Forest
04:02
|

You are by definition
A treasure found at sea
See my intuition
Always told me to run free
Be wild, a wayward child
In a world that’s lonely as can be
But babe you stepped into my life
And filled the well that wasn’t dry
With you I’m more myself than
Anywhere else now
You defined what means at home when
I felt all alone then
You raised the bar so high
To reflect your blue eyed sky
I look at you and find
The lost forest on my mind
I didn’t search nor did i need
Another man to love
I will be honest
My share was fair
I have had enough
And yet you came
Deep as the darkest lake
A secret well kept away
With you I’m more myself than
Anywhere else now
You defined what means at home when
I felt all alone then
You raised the bar so high
To reflect your blue eyed sky
I look at you and find
The lost forest on my mind

Lift My Spirit
04:06
|
|||
Lately I’ve been wondering
Where the music has gone
Only silence is surrounding but
The past of it lives on
All these noises
Inside my head
Are keeping me up
And keep me awake
I’ve been dividing myself
Into half lives
No where to hide, confide
No island that might
Lift my spirit and break
These curses away
Should I be going now or
Rather stay
Because the colours have gone
Where a spectrum once was
The storm’s raging on
But the ship’s ran it’s course
Where a lion once roared
Shadow’s lurking through the night
For I did once see but
Now I have turned blind
Lift my spirit and break
These curses away
Should I be going now or
Rather stay
You keep what you think low at bay
You wonder you might, yeah you may
You’re waiting for your judgement day
When there’s nothing left to say
When there’s no god left to pray
When there’s no rules to obey
And all the colours
Have turned to grey

Bring Me The Rain
07:06
|
|||
Bring me the rain
Bring me the downpour
I feel tired and old
It's all in vain
I pray no longer
To disturb the natural order
Bring me the rain
Buried the pain
'Cause soon i'll fly
I'm suicidal
Bring me the fuel
Pass me the matchbox
I feel that chill come on
I saw the words upon the paper
Turn to dust in my hand
Bring me the rain
Buried the pain
'Cause soon i'll fly
I'm suicidal
Oddly calm before the rainstorm
Will lift and rinse as the flood walls rise
Will it reach me in time
Will i reach twenty nine?
