Until The Lights Dim

I'm on a firing line
Hit me a thousand times
We can meet up at the sunrise and do it all again
I'm on a firing line
Watching the words collide
Giving you the truth
And I believe that's worth the pain
If I can't stand
I'll hold a candle
I won't give you more
Than you can handle
Down to ashes
Let the wax drip
I won't give it up
Until the lights dim
Under the moonlight
Feel like the flame might die
Looking for an easier life
I'm pushing you away
I'm holding on too
I still refuse
To butter up a truth
So you can take this in good faith
If I can't stand
I'll hold a candle
I won't give you more
Than you can handle
Down to ashes
Let the wax drip
I won't give it up
Until the lights dim

I Don't Like Monday
02:55

I don’t like Monday
So we go out on Friday
I was wondering if I
Could get you on your own at the weekend
Wake up in the same way
Wondering the same thing
Maybe you could go part-time
And every day would be a weekend
You could put it all on the line
Might not work out but at least you tried
I’ll be at the bar on Friday night
I’ll play you whatever you like
Holding back a tear in a meeting
I know that you’re there for a reason
Some people get a hard time
That’s why I’m glad they get to meet you
I don’t like Monday
So we go out on Friday
I was wondering if I
Could get you on your own at the weekend
Wake up in the same way
Wondering the same thing
Maybe you could go part-time
And every day would be a weekend

Where Do We Belong
03:26

I still believe it
Different than before
Been a long time coming
Sing to me no more
People keep it
Think they found the cure
In spite of what they thought
I think I’m true
I’m the same
Same as I’ve always been
Where do we belong
All I once built upon moved
Didn’t feel good
Pain comes when you don’t want to change
Now you know I’ll never leave you
Forsake you though I would
We’re a long time bolted
Rag over the bull
Twice repeat it
Saturate the hue
In spite of what was said
I know what’s true
It’s the same
Same as it’s always been
Where do we belong
All I once built upon moved
Didn’t feel good
Pain comes when you don’t want to change
Like a stream that leads us down to the oxbow
Won’t you ebb and flow
Though you try to dig your heels into the ground
They could not pin us down
I realise that you were worth not letting go
Cast off the doubt
Suspend the feeling lose it all
It’s the same
Same as it’s always been
Where do we belong
All I once built upon moved
Didn’t feel good
Pain comes when you don’t want to change

Anywhere My Love Will Go
02:50
|

On one fine morning in February
I saw my love
Love saw me
There a promise made to ever keep
Anywhere my love will go is where my heart shall be
Overseas so gently we will float
Over Albert Bridge
Over the Falls Road
Though the distances will come between
Anywhere my love will go is where my heart shall be
Time unravelling while we were still
Pulling kites through the wind
When the lines are tough you tilt the reel
Anywhere my love will go is where my heart shall be
Overhead so clearly we can see
Further down the line
Faded memories
Though sometimes we won’t remember these
Anywhere my love will go is where my heart shall be

Pony On The Fare
02:49

I’ll never know how we made it so close
We tempted our fate
I ventured on still caned
Had to take the time to drink you in
We were invincible then
How am I going to break that fake
That makes me want to lie
You know I’ve been around that block
Washed up at twenty-five
The more I hurt you
All the more I thought you worth the while
Think about it all the time
That cab you took I wish I was inside
To put a pony on the fare
Take each day as just a place we were
Never need a reason to be for the tear
How am I going to break that fake
That makes me want to lie
You know I’ve been around that block
Washed up at twenty-five
The more I hurt you
All the more I thought you worth the while
Think about it all the time

Dreaming
03:14

Joint up at the cusp
Lined up in the frame
No one else is up
Call you by your name
What you’re dreaming of
Connections in your mind
Pathways set alight
When it gets too much I’m picking you up
Oceans of white dust
Drowning in the scale
Images of us
Stars that spin around
Us as we stay awake
What you’re dreaming of
Connections in your mind
Pathways set alight
When it gets too much I’m picking you up

Born To Be Loved
04:10
|
|||
|
Think we better take this on the road
I don’t want to wait for the curtain to close
It’s black-out and blue with a rattling shut
I don’t think that anybody here gets us
More than anything
Over in a moment
Anyone that meets you knows the score
Born to be loved
There's another magpie in the gutter
Picking at the moss in the fascia board
Just one less we’ve got each other
Just one more for the little girl
More than anything
Over in a moment
Anyone that meets you knows the score
Born to be loved
Think we better take this on the road
We’ll never sell out and we’ll never go cold
Black out the blues with a rattling shut
Doesn’t really matter if they ever get us
More than anything
Over in a moment
Anyone that meets you knows the score
Born to be loved

Easy If You Don't Care
03:44
|

It’s an outline
A stretched out figure
Shape a path into a black arcade
In the times when we’re
Cut down the middle
Steal some sunlight off the evening again
If it’s right I don’t want to know why
Easy if you don’t care
My summer’s indian
Riding on the air
Some nights it’s a haze above the river
Hold the shade off just a little bit more
Give me grace and I’ll keep giving you a little
It gives you truth if you stay true to it
If it’s right I don’t want to know why
Easy if you don’t care
My summer’s indian
Riding on the air
