Selling Out

You know me, we've been here before.
Spose I should've read the sign on your door.
Can you cast your mind back to that night last week,
when you said we had to speak about the birds and the bees. I've been thinking about the life you want.
Been thinking you can live it in about a month.
Baby, just another game we played.
Roll the dice, fiddle with fire, then sit in the shade coz
I can tell, you ain't selling out.
Yeah I can tell, you ain't selling out.
Block it all out, breathe it all in.
Deny you saw a thing so you can skip the next sin. Say you're sorry with a well known phrase.
Steel the last laugh with a joke from back in the day. I've been thinking about the life you want.
Been thinking you can live it in about a month.
Baby, just another game we played.
Roll the dice, fiddle with fire, then sit in the shade coz I can tell, you ain't selling out.
Yeah I can tell, you ain't selling out.
BeIer to burn than never to learn it's cost.
BeIer to bathe, skins change when they're lost. Somebody scream, lean into your last.
Longer to live but less to give when you pass.
I've been thinking about the life you want.
Been thinking you can live it in about a month.
Baby, just another game we played.
Roll the dice, fiddle with fire, then sit in the shade coz I can tell, you ain't selling out.
Yeah I can tell, you ain't selling out.

Memories
02:59
|

To think of things, entwined with words. Meaningless thoughts, thrown into chaos.
To walk down paths,
crumbling behind you.
Scenes that don't last,
direction you choose.
Who would've thought after all these years, that we'd look back to the past and wonder, what was so good before
Who would've thought after all these years, that we'd look back to the past and wonder, what was so good before
I don't remember to reminisce.
Does that make me lesser, coz I can't distinguish. Forever forgetting the life we lead,
the light we see, in times between.
Who would've thought after all these years,
that we'd look back to the past and wonder, what was so good before
Who would've thought after all these years, that we'd look back to the past and wonder, what was so good before
The memories live on, through all that ain't perfect. Casting out times that live on,
watching from under the surface.
Yeah in the end, it's a trip through the past. Remember the times, you wish could've lasted. And all we can do is choose what to repeat,
turn a full circle and never retreat.
Who would've thought after all these years, that we'd look back to the past and wonder, what was so good before
Who would've thought after all these years, that we'd look back to the past and wonder, what was so good before
I hold on to memories, that's all I have left.
I hold to memories that's all I have left for you.

Kiss Me In Copenhagen
04:31
|
|||
|
Stones cover the streets,
Time seems slower than usual.
We wonder the canals,
and get lost in the day.
You taste the city,
I drink the bars dry.
We share a smile from ear to ear,
and all I want's to keep you near.
Kiss me in Copenhagen where weeks aren't weeks at all. Life feels at ease and somehow, like home to me.
Wind sweeps up the sky,
a sea breeze colder than usual.
I listen out for a change in heart,
but no noise prevails.
All the words we don't understand,
cause us no bother.
Now I'm Mghtly holding your hand,
so let's walk a liIle longer.
Kiss me in Copenhagen where weeks aren't weeks at all. Life feels at ease and somehow, like home to me.
Kiss me in Copenhagen where weeks aren't weeks at all. Life feels at ease and somehow, like home to me.
It seems like anywhere we go,
I'm calling your name.
Asking to hear your voice again.
And every day I let you know, that I'd be happy all the same, anywhere you wanna go.
It seems like anywhere we go, I'm calling your name.
Asking to hear your voice again. And everyday I let you know, that I'd be happy all the same, anywhere you wanna go.
Yeah anywhere you wanna go.
Kiss me in Copenhagen where weeks aren't weeks at all. Life feels at ease and somehow, like home to me.
Kiss me in Copenhagen where weeks aren't weeks at all. Life feels at ease and somehow, like home to me.

Losing Battle
04:31

You're not good enough,
why you trying so hard.
It was never your decision to make.
Didn't quite fit the bill,
it's not what we're looking for.
Maybe try next time you got something to say.
And it hurts inside to hear, must be a mistake.
I thought people wanted someone real, not a fake.
They don't care at all, I'm fighting a losing baIle.
Wait for you to fall down, and try to dismantle your belief. They don't care at all, I'm fighting a losing battle.
Wait for you to fall down, and try to dismantle your belief. I'm not bothered,
what do they know anyway.
I've spent years on this so don't try tell me otherwise.
It's every man for themself.
What happened to team work.
I don't wanna be the one to get let down.
And it hurts inside to hear, must be a mistake.
I thought people wanted someone real, not a fake.
Yeah it hurts inside to hear, part of me break.
I thought better to push the boat out, too liIle too late. They don't care at all, I'm fighting a losing battle.
Wait for you to fall down, and try to dismantle your belief. They don't care at all, I'm fighting a losing battle.
Wait for you to fall down, and try to dismantle your belief. They don't care at all, I'm fighting a losing battle.

Entirely True
04:49

How can I trust a world built on greed.
Up to no good and out to deceive.
If that's love you've got a funny way to show it. How can I choose to live and work alone,
heard the news gave me no choice at all.
Try to give a liIle back to say thanks when you can.
But with a crowd of hungry mouths
there comes a time you put your head in the sand.
How can we live this life of blue,
When everything around us serves to help us through.
How can we live this life of blue,
when everything around us serves to help us through.
But that's not, entirely true my dear.
No that's not, entirely true.
How can I wake up each morning,
knowing I'm set to lose.
If fair game's this way I'd never play, in truth.
How can I lay down each day,
happy to roll over the stakes,
when it's not my mistake that led you here.
And I won't partake in something so sincere.
How can we live this life of blue,
When everything around us serves to help us through.
How can we live this life of blue,
when everything around us serves to help us through.
But that's not, entirely true my dear.
No that's not, entirely true.
They said they tried to save those lives, I heard otherwise.
Yeah they said they tried, to save those lives, and I heard otherwise. Coz if that's love you've got a funny way to show it.

Pay For The People

Have you ever been so lost,
far gone but beIer off.
Told to save Ml the day comes,
and don't you spend any, but now and then maybe. Seeking perfecMon at a cost.
All's said and done what have we brought. Told you to be there on the hour.
So we can sit down and talk about how.
Pay for the people you love, I’ll give anything, everything in a world that costs too much. Any year that's categorised by months.
Pay for the people you love, ill share anything, everything if i feel you need it.
Do all I can to help you achieve it.
Have you ever been so broke,
soaked in a days wage of biIer and choked.
On spare change for the famous,
I heard sorry with avengance don't menMon it. CommunicaMon seems lost,
escape face to face chasing messengers.
The stronger sedaMve's wearing off,
I swear I'm beIer now coz..
Pay for the people you love, ill give anything, everything in a world that costs too much.
Any year that's categorised by months.
Pay for the people you love, ill share anything, everything if i feel you need it.
Do all I can to help you achieve it.
PracMced excuses for not being a beIer person.
Call me intrusive, I'm just tryna learn some more. Captured by crosses fighMng over another hill.
Beg for forgiveness, I can't spare another soul at all... Pay for the people you love, ill give anything, everything in a world that costs too much.
Any year that's categorised by months.

Winning Back Hours
03:53
|

|
It's one thing or another always bringing you down.
Same trouble every weekend then come Monday brush off your crown. It’s temperamental, call me mental when you asked me around.
To lend a hand, not feeling the harmony maybe try some different sounds. Some days it works pieces fall into place.
Five minutes later the weather changes like the expression on your face. Who are we kidding, steadily learning how to hate each other.
Bitter sweets been lost and found so we call each other lovers now.
I've tried I've paid my dues my price
And I'm tired of doing everything twice.
I've lost I've sold time for you, and I'm tired of winning back hours too. Tired if winning, back hours too.
Ridiculous false pretence, undesired sentiment,
cooked up in someone's bedroom I can't see the relevance.
Back to your best again, keep telling em telling em.
Maybe next time they'll have more trust with a little less fuss.
Brush off those loose ends, fake friends always searching for solutions without an issue to mend.
Thread through the eye of a needle like an impossible task,
mastered at last by the end.
I've tried I've paid my dues my price
And I'm tired of doing everything twice.
I've lost I've sold time for you,
and I'm tired of winning back hours too. I've tried I've paid my dues my price
And I'm tired of doing everything twice. I've lost I've sold time for you,
and I'm tired of winning back hours too. Tired if winning, back hours too.

Real With Me
04:48

|
CraOing an aura, and smiling through your teeth.
Just a protecMve layer, like a shell to the sand beneath. Yeah you're just a puzzle, cut into parts.
A mirror that's shaIered, with infinite shards. Say what you want, say what you will,
but it's Mme to be real with me.
Say what you want, say what you will,
but it's Mme to be real with me.
You make it look easy, to capture every spark.
Holding it hostage, Mll death do us part.
Yeah you're just a puzzle and I'm a piece that doesn't fit.
LeO Mll last to discard, I like the story but I can't stand the script. Say what you want, say what you will,
but it's Mme to be real with me.
Say what you want, say what you will,
but it's Mme to be real with me.
When Mme gathers it's hands and moves across the hour mark. I reconsider where I stand as the light turns to dark.

Enjoyin The Road

Driving along, driving along, driving along didn't do no wrong if you get the picture. Singing a song, singing a song, singing a song Mll he turned it off and I gave him the finger. I said why'd you have to do this to me,
you could've picked any other city swinger.
He said son i bet you live like you speed,
extremely insensibly what you aching to bleed for?
I ain't waiMng to bleed for no one
I'm just enjoying the road and the slowly seQng sun. I ain't waiMng to bleed for no one
I'm just enjoying the road and the slowly seQng sun. I won't do what I'm told,
I'm a villain on the run just out causing some trouble. Armed with a boIle of fun,
a sweet dirt cheap mixture of rum
that keeps my head cool while I'm out on the prowl. On a manhunt for a messy occasion
not ashamed of my acMons this ain't desperaMon. Ignoring the general segregaMon of people
like a species endangered
I ain't waiMng to bleed for
I'm just enjoying the road
I ain't waiMng to bleed for
I'm just enjoying the road
I ain't waiMng to bleed for
I'm just enjoying the road
I ain't waiMng to bleed for
no one I'm just enjoying the road and the slowly seQng sun. But I sMll wouldn't look back with regret or remorse,
more learn from the lessons that I shouldn't have been taught. And sMll I think to why my days are a'wasMng.
Whether it's my fault or yours and why I don't have the paMence. I said why'd you have to do this to me,
you could've picked any other city swinger.
He said son I bet you live like you speed,
extremely insensibly what you aching to bleed for?
I ain't waiMng to bleed for no one
I'm just enjoying the road and the slowly seQng sun. I ain't waiMng to bleed for no one
we ain't gonna be saved. no one
and the slowly seQng sun. no one
and the slowly seQng sun. no one
and the slowly seQng sun.
I'm just enjoying the road and the slowly seQng sun.
I ain't waiMng to bleed for no one
I'm just enjoying the road and the slowly seQng sun.

Follow My Lead
04:48

They told me why we live so long,
but never for the Mme we asked. Everyday the thing went wrong,
put those feelings in your past.
They told me why it hurts so bad, when the needle leaves the skin.
And how they burst a couple bubbles, just to let a liIle bad crawl in.
That's right, we want it,
you can't hold more than all that you are.
Don't ask, just take it.
If it ain't yours but it's all that you need.
Follow my lead,
follow my lead,
follow my lead.
They showed me where we all came from,
made me swear I'd never say.
We're baIeries for centre stage,
with a show three Mmes a day.
That's right, we want it,
you can't hold more than all that you are.
Don't ask, just take it. If it ain't yours but it's all that you need. Follow my lead,
follow my lead,
follow my lead.
They helped me build a harmony,
just to break us down in turn.
Now we're wriMng symphonies,
they said we'd never learn.
That's right, we want it,
you can't hold more than all that you are.
Don't ask, just take it. If it ain't yours but it's all that you need.

When Autumn Begins

If I asked you to wait for summer to end.
How would you feel when autumn begins?
Would it even cross your mind that you'd been cheated at all? Don't go outside while we figure this out.
Baby in Mme we'll be where we want.
Please don't take too long, we're geQng older now.
Close up your doors and focus on chores.
The very meaning of a spring clean without the opMon to leave. Please don't take too long, say it's over now.
If I asked you to wait for summer to end.
How would you feel when autumn begins?
Would it even cross your mind that you'd been cheated at all?
If I asked you...
Everyone seems out of their depth,
while the rest of us sit here and hope for the best.
Give me paMence please, let me trust you now.
Coz it's well known, we've been lied to before,
supposed to lend our livelihoods to a bunch of suits we don't know. How we supposed to see at all?
If I asked you to wait for summer to end.
How would you feel when autumn begins?
Would it even cross your mind that you'd been cheated at all?
