Lights Shine 03:48
Lights Shine I live with a stack of memories And a faint hearted man who’s in love with the power That a good man intends to pass on I wallow in delusions of grandeur Of a life that I have seldom seen And I’ve got to get out now Would you take me out tonight? Take me into town Take me out drinking Take me where the lights shine This town is like my life The lights have changed but the front runner’s stalling I have a withered soul Will I ever make it to die? And I have just seen a ghost in the hall Got to get out now Would you take me out tonight? Take me into town Take me out drinking Take me where the lights shine

Juggernauts 05:49
Juggernauts We’ve been missing each other at close quarters Passing like ships, we’re more like juggernauts I still carry a piece of paper Battered and torn now after all these years On it are words you once believed in Always means at all times Always means in all circumstances Always, that’s when I love you No more Hey there darling How you doing? It’s been so long You know that I… I’m doing just fine What’s new darling? Where you going? It’s been so long You know that I… I’m doing just fine I’m making a mark on the paper And that’s all mine I’m getting us out of this city Gonna make my own time Hey there darling How you doing? It’s been so long You know that I… I’m doing just fine I’m fine I’m doing just I….I’m doing just… Fine.

Surrogate Funeral A death worth dying is a death hard won You were a child of god And your father’s son I walked for an hour by the river’s run To cry for the dying and what I’d become And yes I feel alone Though I’m with you I feel alone right now Though I’m with you I broke my silence, I broke my vow I’m breaking everything that’s good right now Will you hate me, will you care Tear up all the thoughts of the past we share And yes I feel alone Though I’m with you I feel alone right now Though I’m with you The phone is too quiet, have you really gone I wouldn’t blame you for a second after what I’ve done The things I’ve said the things I‘ve not The strength to mourn the love we’ve got And yes I feel alone Though I’m with you I feel alone right now Though I’m with you

Toy Shark 04:13
Toy Shark Pay for the privilege Of having the time Silence oh silence The quiet to your noise Shore up a smile in the rain Powder on up Rebuild illusionary you Boys in the sand Before and to come Keep a safe distance Run. Run. Run. Evenings, secrets, plans Who would have thought? But never breach the parapet Never take what’s not yours The obvious decision Compadre in plastic form But those teeth will never bite This hand, just lay scorn Boys in the sand Before and to come Keep a safe distance Run. Run. Run. At the mercy of the players hands again, always Rain on roof releases But time is a-failing Boys in the sand Before and to come Keep a safe distance Run. Run. Run.

Burning 05:23
Burning Burning all manner of things Burn the thought of you But still you’re a-flame Still you’re in mind, and dazzle Speechless wonder of my eye Speeding so slowly Towards your desired end Where does it take you? How can I save you? No kindness or comfort is here The table’s empty Still you want it and need it But you’ll forsake it, and bleed for it Leave me out in the cold Shaking like those days When I was behind Always the follower of things Where does it take you? How can I save you?

Farewell my lovely I was thinking that maybe we wouldn’t make work for 9 Wondering if you and I could take some time… ...out to make everything alright ‘Cause you know it’s not alright Sometimes you seem so naked and bare In the softness of sleep that follows you there Or you can be cold, cold as the ashes of love Remembering You say, baby we’re out of time You say, baby we’re out of time We’re just treading water Maybe we’ll make it next time Where did the days go The months, the years What became of our hopes, dreams, our fears It’s alright I know now The dreams are all mine You say, baby we’re out of time You say, baby we’re out of time We’re just treading water Maybe we’ll make it next time You come home berated You didn’t make work for 9 But I can’t help but notice that sparkle in your smile I’m thinking that maybe things will be fine This time You say, baby we’re out of time You say, baby we’re out of time We’re just treading water Maybe we’ll make it next time

Electric Night Lie here looking out the failed glass all night Sodium glow, weary eyes But damn it’s bright And it’s cold without you here Even on this electric night I’m reading you and lie Lie dying here I’m reading you and lie Lie...do you read me too? And you say - ‘cause you always were the one to say - That my sky’s changing But who the hell are you to tell me? About the things above when I know more And I’m the one who’s looking up I’m reading you and lie Lie dying here I’m reading you and lie Lie...do you read me? Kiss and die with just one name in your pocket Learn from ones before and let me go now too Without ever knowing more ‘Cause there really is no point I’m reading you and lie Lie dying here I’m reading you and lie Lie...do you read me too?

Those Dudes 04:02
Those Dudes You say you’re grieving You say you’re cold Spring falls around you As Winter has found you Those dudes they love you Though you put them through hell Locked doors won’t hide you Clenched jaws won’t quiet you You say you’re back on track But your eyes say I’m talking crap Grease on your window And your truths lay far and wide Those dudes they love you Though you put them through hell Locked doors won’t hide you Clenched jaws won’t quiet you Fog swirls around and round And your eyes they nurse the ground Like an old friend you slept with Like an old maybe, once ago Those dudes they love you Though you put them through hell Locked doors won’t hide you Clenched jaws won’t quiet you

Motorbikes 05:46
Motorbikes Why isn’t just being Enough to make us be? I don’t believe in anything Just here and now and me Pinned my eyes open While they stitched her up But I won’t watch again I know this script so well But my part’s changed Last night I built a church around us Perfect spheres of our blood reflecting us Pastel homes and rusted vans Sands are ripe for picking Still your words are ringing out They resonate so clearly How do you know me? Or am I the same? Just like all the rest After three days, long years Your words, his voice Sinister merger Last night I built a church around us Perfect spheres of our blood reflecting us Should I go now...? Your light was on But I didn’t have the nerve to Wasted detour Can no-one make me right? Your light was on Your light was on

Sometime in Spring Stop the clock For yourself is in tatters Hold on to this moment now Make the pain last Let me inside Your frayed skin and broken bones Make me a mender of things Sometime in Spring Revel in starlight As the homebound comes crashing down The best is the worst is the best You’ll have ever felt And once you’ve known it You will always be free Free to listen out loud Sometime in Spring
