Out in The Heat

Places I forgot exist
Come out in the heat
She’s soft but her edges appear quickly
Like the stains in your teeth
The summer can fade so quickly sometimes
But when I’m with you girl I don’t realise
So stop playing your games take me out of the heat
But you won’t get off your throne
Your sunshine sinister seat
She said summer warrior
Be good to your queen
Stay out of my way
There’s a time and a place for you
Zulu
I find it hard to look you straight in the eye
Two smoldering holes of decimated desire
Your blurry existence camouflages what’s real
How should I feel?
When we get together
There’s that feeling you shake
But you can’t weather the aftermath
And the days pacing so hasty to get to your arms
She’s lying under my mind
And she’s still kissing slow
If it doesn’t make sense to everyone
Then it’s probably alright to do
It’s hard to be true to anyone
But what’s harder is true to you
And I..
Catch the scent
The scent she’s left
Upon the sand
She’s not for rent
Feels better in the summer
It’s obviously the colour
She left an impression on the night
Has the darkness left
Is it still bright?

Maybe I’m going crazy
You’re looking at me like we just had a fight as I’m waking
I know it is hard to let go
The things that I have said as you lie in bed til tomorrow
I keep my secrets tonight
There’s just one thing that’s been bothering me
Last night I could hear you talk in a dream
If I led you on I’m sorry I swear
You keep me honest baby
You escape into reality
Standing out on the landing
I’m tryna hide from you as you find a new understanding
Underneath this shallow cover
It’s just a little boy lost without a toy and a mother
I keep my secrets tonight
She can feel emotion hidden in you
Deep beneath the ocean out of the blue
Hey!
So don’t believe your dreams
Cos it’s never as it seems
Underneath the night’s disguise baby
Oh!
Just a stupid thing I said
And it’s lingered in your head
I can see it in your eyes latelyv

Sucker For Stars

Coming out of a storm again
I think I see the light coming round the bend
I couldn’t turn
One love to earn
Long ago
I was running around this town
I thought that nothing ever could take me down
‘Til she arrived
Those bright blue eyes
All your life can’t decide what makes you happier
No more lies close your eyes
But all I see is that night
I told her go away from my window
Don’t let me drift away
Out to sea
‘Cos I will never know
How to be alone
Keep on making the same mistake
I wonder how much more is it going to take
A crying shame, this tired game, telling me
I’ve been keeping her up all night
But know that I’m not giving it up this time
Girl go to sleep
Because I’m yours to keep
I swear darling
Don’t let me drift away
Out to sea
‘Cos I will never know
How to be alone
And if I talk too much
She ties me down and tells me it’s alright
Won’t let me out of sight
She’s the sun and the scent that jogs my memory
On the double and now she’s talking oh so slow
She’s not a fool for guitars
Or a sucker for stars

Sleepers

Never thought it would be us we called them fools
When we still had time to kill and we were still in school
But the time is getting harder to kill it seems
Try to battle all your demons with broken dreams
Give it to me now
Give it a minute and we’ll figure it out
Please don’t go and throw it all away
Too many sleepers and you’re going south
You only live to fight another day
When you walked from the wreckage of the car
Did you think of all your friends who loved you from afar?
Now you’re upside down, no more highs, on the ground
You try to laugh it off but you don’t make a sound
Where do you go when you try to find an escape?
I could show you a place
Just come out of the hole that you’ve dug down
Deep in the ground
Time to turn this around
Give it a minute and we’ll figure it out
Please don’t go and throw it all away
Too many sleepers and you’re going south
You only live to fight another day
You’re getting sentimental sitting around
And now you’re gonna throw it all away
Too many sleepers kid you’re going south
You only live to fight another day

Magazine Road
03:31
|

|
The night has come and you’ve begun
To think about the possibilities
Beneath the stars you steal a car
But you can’t drive
And she’s still out of it
Over the hills you travel
Headed for Magazine Road
Another year unravels
Another story untold
The birds will sing
Your ears will ring
Cigarettes and drunken dreams again
You’ve lost your place
You're just a face
In the crowd
She’ll pick you out again
Over the hills you travel
Headed for Magazine Road
Another year unravels
Another story untold
Tumbling on and on through time
You only run in one straight line
Hoping to find your purpose
Happiness moves in circles
You’re trying to be the best that you can
You’ve got a disease, ya you are a man
But I recognise the hole in your heart
But I’m out of love
Yes I’m out of love

Mike and Simone

Late last night
I thought we’d end up like Mike and Simone
I had the message typed on my phone
The pressure been feeling the pressure
But now I feel the tide turning
Upside down
Came up for air but I swam to the ground
I called your name out it made no sound
We’ll get ya we’re coming to get ya
But now I feel the tide turning
When the days are fading fast
And you pray the light will last
Something’s waiting in the dark
I’m a flame and you're the spark
Oh and now I know there’s nothing more
Than what I’m feeling with you

Into The Light
03:47

Take a dip and swim in my fishbowl
And get to know the ways in which I’ve grown
Turn around with me and say goodbye
Take me down the river
Where we live and die
I just can’t stay here in the same place
I’ve got a feeling it’s a mistake
Moving out of the dark and into the light with you
I only ever want to ease your struggle
You came and lifted up the ceiling
And back when I was trying to hide from trouble
You gave me something to believe in
I’m finding ways that i can make this promise
There’s something setting my devotion in motion
Written in DNA I’ll never fall to pieces
You’ll never break my heart so finish what you started
And I won’t fade away
Saving money up in Tesco
And dream of living on the west coast
Moving out of the dark and into the light with you
You take me back to knowing nothing
And it feels so good
I fall at your feet and I’ll go running
For you my love so please don’t go away

Same Again
03:42

Been cleaning out my room today
Found those CDs
You made for me
Oh never such a perfect time
Songs that made me think the world was mine
Do you remember the days that we
Were lost in a soft and sunny Coolamber haze?
Is it a little too real for you?
We're so far from where we thought we were heading to
And all I want is the same again
I'll never get that feeling back
The goosebump touch
Of my first love
Nothing's evеr come close to you
Nothing's evеr gonna be so true
Do you remember the days that we
Were lost in a soft and sunny Coolamber haze?
Is it a little too real for you?
We're so far from where we thought we were heading to
And all I want is the same again
Didn't mean to make you feel so sad
You look as if you lost the dreams you had
Yeah
Do you remember the days that we
Were lost in a soft and sunny Coolamber haze?
Is it a little too real for you?
We're so far from where we thought we were heading to
I only wanted to be with you
Feel so sad for all the things that we'd never do
And all I want is the same again

Hard To Say
03:42
|

|
Dodging the bullets coming to cook up my brain
I see you launching attacks from inside your silver frame
You know it’s money for nothing and we’re all famous for free
Forever wrecking my head, how come you’re all that I see?
I’ve got no imagination and all my insides are dead
I go and poison myself then take it all back to bed
Then at the push of a button you suck me into your world
Another number tomorrow another fool in the herd
And it’s hard to say I want to find my own way this time
It’s too late for me to go back and change it now
See it believe it you’ve got to tweet it, retweet it
You know we fight for no reason ‘cos we ain’t got no opinion
Here kid you’ve got to believe me I swear I saw it on TV
I fell in love with a picture then got ideas to fit her
With all the other delinquents she just shows up far too frequently
Collide and we clash, I see ya rockin the Casbah!
Your doors are so shady feels like there’s no one to save me
And all you virtual lovers you know reality’s waiting
And the way she moves I’m gone the disillusion of it all
Takes you to a place you thought you never knew
I’ll wait up for you
(If you want me to)
And I’m taking my time
(But I don’t mind, take your time, it’s not my first time waiting in line)
And I’ll wait up for you
(Got nothing else to do)
And I’m taking my time

Love Fades

Deep down in her heart
She wanted a new start
She wanted a new feeling
I could sense it too
But what’s a girl to do
When she ain’t got no reason?
Hot up in the twenties
Hasn’t got a penny
Tired of all your paper dreams
Goes and gets a notion
Flies across the ocean
Love is torn at the seams
I want to feel what you feel when you love me
Give me a chance just to dance in your body
I want to know what it is to be lonely
I want to know but you don’t want to know me
Happiness is rare
But she has bought a fare
Another destination
Running off again
But you can’t play pretend
With no imagination
And if i’m getting you down
Why you sticking around?
I feel you losing your heart
You’re just playing a part

Golden Girl

This is overdue, I’m such a fool
Don’t think I wasn’t loving you
You know I do
Yellow like the sun, my number one
You know that you were all I ever needed from the start
I’m no fool and I’m getting out while I’m winning
In the end the story was only beginning
Up on Harbour Hill in a little dream
Sun is setting down for the night in the corner
If I could paint a perfect picture
I’ve been strange I know, I come and go
Been floating in and out of my distracted mind
Now the sun is out, I want to shout
I love you, it’s not something I remember in the rain
I’m no fool and I’m getting out while I’m winning
In the end the story was only beginning
Up on Harbour Hill in a little dream
Sun is setting down for the night in the corner
Living in a picture perfect world
You’re my golden girl
Fallen into a fantasy
Took a holiday from reality
Somewhere far from the beaten track
I can hear your voice come and call me back
Golden girl as you take a walk
Through my every dream, through my every thought
Can’t believe I’d forgotten you
But like always you have come shining through
