let me tell you what you see in me
‘cos I don’t mind what they say anymore
well you know it’s just a lie I’m sure you do
you didn’t believe I’ll ever change
all the drinks and all the laughs we shared
all the fights now who’s to blame
not a word about the past we shared
with the lights out who’s to blame
there’s no need for me to try to be
all the things you want me to be
I take my last chance and tie my boots
they’re terribly worn but got a soul
if I keep walking in your shoes
I won’t leave no footsteps
no I don’t walk in your shoes
I’m out of step

My Bones

let the wind carry my bones away
into the harbour
into the water
let them rain down from the sky above
onto the fire
my desire
let the earth have my bones

she set up the stage when I passed by
through the shady backroads
of this abandoned town
I wondered what she would sound like
when I stepped in all the lights were dim
and all the places free
the owner looked up
and sighed ‘finally’
what is it like to sing a song to no one
after she tuned her guitar
and checked the volume of the amp
she took a seat right across the bar
and ordered her second drink
she whispered ‘thanks for coming’
I didn’t tell here I was there by chance, but asked her
what is it like to sing a song to no one
SHE SAID: I FEEL THE SAME ANYWAY
IT FEELS LIKE THE WHOLE WORLD IS LISTENING
COS THIS IS MY RNR DREAM
I KEEP SINGING MY SONGS
she finished her drink then took the stage
the owner shouted from behind the bar
‘don’t you want to wait until more people are here ?’
she looked him straight into the eyes, and said:
‘no one else will come out tonight’
and she started to sing just for me

Already There

how do you cope with this loss my friend
so far it seems you’re still you
please take a step, stumble, fall into
why take this so hard and make-believe
don’t you see
THAT YOU ARE ALREADY THERE
IT’S TRUE THERE’S NO OTHER WAY
now I let go and leave you be – I don’t feel
not even better when I drown my fears
you better get out and just breath in – this life
there’s much more to life than another drink
don’t you see
THAT YOU ARE ALREADY THERE
IT’S TRUE THERE’S NO OTHER WAY
if you bury me – bury me inside out
all I ever was – was this fire deep inside
no I can’t see – see you around
cos all you are right now is an ache in my heart

Counting Cars

I can feel time dripping on my skin
I still don’t know how to cope with this
they wanted me to despise you all the same
I'm forever greatful now – I didn't fall for them
Now I see you fought it's on your skin
why did you leave I was on your side
these days we try to find us all the same
anger turned into sympathy – I'll never fall for them
WHEN ARE YOU COMING HOME
IT'S BEEN YEARS SINCE I'VE LOST MY FEARS
WHEN ARE YOU COMING HOME
I'M SICK OF COUNTING CARS
I don't – don't know – I don't know what you think
I know – how you- I know how you feel

Floods

we see these floods
erasing whole towns and drag ‘em to the sea
we feel their sweat
on our skin when we put on our clothes
we hear their screams
ringing in our ears when we use our phones
we scent their fear
of hopelessness from our coffees to go
we see them cry
when they’re forced to sell their kids
and in our mouthes
we taste blood when we cut up their meat
we hear them beg
when there’s nothing left but the bones
we still invest
in shady major companies
they act on a screen – a play so far away from here
seems so unreal – I’m sure that’s got nothing to do with me
SO WE WATCH THEM DYING
IN HIGH DEFINITION

Spare

give the people – what they want
in lethal doses – this is what they want
what’s the reason –for your dread
it's never easy – to not give in, I'll not join in
do you need this or do you try to fill a hole
I’ll never understand and follow
I'll take the lead no I won't follow
WE CAME WITH NOTHING IN OUR HANDS
WE’LL LEAVE WITH EVERYTHING IN OUR HEARTS

I Seek Silence
01:44
|

|
every empty space
they try to fill with rage
and every word they use
to sell you a dream
because your tiredness
is exactly what they want
don’t give them anymore
don’t let them consume you
if you can’t stand this emptiness
I guess your just afraid of yourself
if you can’t bear this nothingness
I guess your just afraid of yourself
I seek silence
I don’t want to hear them anymore
