Great Escapes
Don't know if I'm coming or going
Don't know if I'm reaching or holding
Don't know how many hearts I've stolen
Or broken in two
Can't tell if I'm waking or sleeping
Can't find one thing to believe in
And I can't see a single reason
To feel like I do
Need to simplify
Need to simply fly
Always finding ways to make escapes
And always take my headphones, stacks of tapes
I'm never at peace unless it plays
To my soul these tones
I haven't got the energy to waste
I need it for my dignity and grace
And I'm no longer pleased to see her face
Or to make her moan
Need to be alone
Need to be alone

Shallow Water
I'm fearful to see how this day ends
Cause I know the sunset, but will it rise again?
I'm obviously looking through a lens
Flash photography for a memory of some time I spent
I'm tearful to no longer know my old friends
Wherever you wind up I hope you find it easy
And come back to see me when
Low on energy, need a remedy, we'll reflect on all this then
In shallow water
You still can drown
Start sinking down
Oh you're drifting now
In the shallow
Thinking of leaving my humble abode
Reaching for spirits but all I found is old ghosts
Seeking to empty my head full of dope
Need no sympathy, kindness killing me, find my own source of hope
Dreaming the earth stood still
Long enough for me to catch up with myself
So leisurely is how time gets killed
No rat-race tragedy, all anxiety, that's not my will
But in shallow water
You still can drown
Start sinking down
Oh you're drifting now
In the shallow

The Only Thing (All I Need)
I've just begun to pull my soul back
So now i'm ready, escape into the sun
Applause then fade to black
And let the credits roll
I got number one but I ain't looking after jack
Skipping a beat or two
I stay on after hours
And try to stay on track
All I need is someone to treat me right
All I need is someone to treat me like
'You are everything, you are the only thing'
I've tripped over love and I've tripped out on hate
You always tell yourself
You won't make the same mistakes
But it's already too late, we find the hard way
Not to be down on luck
Not to not give a fuck, you know that
I've just begun to and my soul is not black
All I need is someone to treat me right
All I need is someone to treat me like
'You are everything, you are the only thing'
I could forever be a nobody outside
Never even tried
Out on the corner waiting for some kind of sign
With no peace of mind
I could forever be looking for something new
Always in blue
When all I ever really needed was you
All i need is someone to treat me right
All i need is someone to treat me like
'You are everything, you are the only thing'

For You To Hold

For You To Hold
To sail the seven seas would be adventure
To get drunk on champagne always a pleasure
To roll in riches with nothing owed
Not to die before I'm tired and old
I'd trade it all for you to hold
To save the lost with noble words of wisdom
For silence when you speak and the whole world listens
To never feel the winter cold
To find my way without being told
I'd trade it all for you to hold
Oh, believe me
It's not easy to be without you're love
Oh, believe me
It's not easy to be without you're love
To play my song on every television
To keep all my regrets away at distance
To raise my bets and to never fold
Be worth more than my weight in gold
I'd trade it all for you to hold
Oh, believe me
It's not easy to be without you're love
Oh, believe me
It's not easy to be without you're love

Keepin On
The list I had of things to do
Is already yesterdays news
Still I find the time to lose
Myself in rhythm and the blues
I keep on keepin on
Don't think of where the days have gone
And everything is on the one
It's not where you're at
It's where you're coming from
Can't find my blue suede shoes
So I stay inside and watch cartoons
And everyday get more confused
Life's a treasure hunt, I'm without a clue man
We keep on keepin on
Don't think of where the years have gone
And everything is on the one
You don't know what you've got 'till it's stolen
Sooner or later I drag her down
She's sick of me now moping round
I was once the lively crowd
Dancing feet and singing loud well
Keep on keepin on
Don't think of where your life has gone
And everything is on the one
Listen up now, I'm gonna sing my song it goes
I keep on keepin on...

Best Laid Plans
Can't you see my suffering
Is only needing one small thing
To smile about
Keeping me from sleep in peace
Well my heart beats
Please will you not tear it out
Action speaks the loudest words
So lay you still, you'll stay my girl
Cause you understand
When rested is this bag of bones
And blood pours from this heart of stone
I'll once again be your man
So forgive, forget the stranger
Sleeping in your bed, ain't no danger
No risk, no threat, the enemy lives in my head
(and we're greater than)
All of the best laid plans
Slip through hands like grains of sand
Well not for us, not today
All of the roads that lead
To minds cut up from smoke we breathe
We will walk a different way
We will walk a different way
Another day, another penny
All life's treasures don't cost any
Yet we're not free
And everyone's got their own tale of woe
That's how most stories go, like a tragedy
Truly, madly, deeply need to spend my days
With you beside me
Can't you see
My suffering is only needing
One small thing from you so it can
Fade away completely
So forgive, forget the stranger
Sleeping in your bed, ain't no danger
No risk, no threat, the enemy lives in my head
(and we're greater than)
All of the best laid plans
Slip through hands like grains of sand
Well not for us, not today
All of the roads that lead
To minds cut up from smoke we breathe
We will walk a different way
We will walk a different way

The Rain
I'm an intergalactic planet drifting orbit unknown
And when I eclipse they see the magic or it could be they're stoned
I lend my friends microphones and keep my company polite
Though I might tend to send a melancholy message by night
I'm a sixteen bit magnetic binary sound
Hear the groove grit stereo split play in the lounge
This can be a cold town so I'll wrap up warm
And live no longer in the shadow of any woman I've scorned
I'm a beat-nicking poet with my ear to the ground
And though I try not to show it this world gets me down
I guess I'll see you around with all the settling dust
Having wrestled with this heart which I can no longer trust
I'm a romantic cynic a contradiction in terms
A mister know all the facts with a lot still to learn
And all the bridges I've burnt no going back
Time to hit the road Jack all my baggage is packed
Sketch a map of mishaps avoid the same mistakes twice
Escape into the sunset away from the secrets and lies
With another shake of the dice I place my stake on snake eyes
Been a high roller now for most of my life
And a little peace would be nice but it's not an option it seems
I've got to work my arse off before fulfilling my dreams
Ripping apart at the seams whilst trying to make amends
Finding difficulty leaning on the shoulders of friends
I'm a constant evolution with perfection in mind
In need of drastically improving but it's a graft and a grind
They say I'm still in my prime so why be feeling so out-dated
The future never turns out quite how we might have estimated
I'm angry and rabid hatred flows through my blood
But when I cut myself open all that comes out is love
Is that ever enough? You know I've been there before
And I wish I didn't but I want more
All I hear is the rain
All I fear is losing my soul again
All I take is the blame
All I make is a move to control again
All I hear is the rain
All I hear is the rain

The Hangover Song
Pockets are empty
Head full of pins
Always know how it started
Never sure how it ends
I'd rather be
Lost out at sea where it's calm
Skin full of plenty
The fat lady sings
When someone says tequila
After ten rounds of drinks
I'd rather be
Lost out at sea in your arms
Blame it on the moonlight
Last night I wasn't all quite there
I wouldn't even care
If you and me were lost out at sea
If you and me were lost out at sea
If you and me were lost out at sea
Where it's calm

No Eat No Sleep
This town is talking out like they're all confused
In the summerdays they're walking with the winter blues
I choose to stay amused, I got nowt to do today
In fact we're gonna kick it back and kill a bit of your time-frame
Rearrange the universe, play with your mind-game
Now we drained your brain my dear
Come join us in adventure check the coast is clear
Steer directly to the hottest spot
Got mojo in my belly and it's twelve o'clock
And you say 'what are we doing today?'
Fall in-step like a marching band
The sound waves soothing then she takes my hand
The universe expands, then slowly fades away
(she says)
No eat no sleep, no eat no sleep
Keep this forever in a jar for me
(she said)
No eat no sleep, I won't eat won't sleep
Open it whenever you are far from me

Little Sweetness
Am I walking with you under the light of the moon?
Or am I crazy? Maybe I'll wake up soon
Are you kissing me now?
Seems unreal yet somehow I can feel it
So it must be true
Won't you save a little sweetness
And give those fools only what they deserve to see
So you can save a little sweetness
Just for me
Are you clutching at straws?
Cause I've been there before
Life is hard, now we're not kids anymore
Want to steal you away
Paint colour over your grey
Drop your guard, maybe you'll be free someday
So save a little sweetness
And give those fools only what they deserve to see
So you can save a little sweetness
Just for me
You say a thousand words every time you move
So don't speak if you don't feel the need to
You say a thousand words every time you move
So don't speak if you don't feel the need to

Not Coming Back
You know not what you're gonna do today
You know not what you're ever gonna do
But i'll tell you this – you got to stay with me
If you don't, you're not ever coming back to me
If you don't listen
If you don't pay any attention
If you don't think about what I say
You're not coming back, coming back, coming back
No way, no way
Say now that you understand me
Things are gonna be a little different round here
Well everything is gonna be just fine
You and me we'll shine
But if you don't listen
If you don't pay any attention
If you don't think about what I say
You're not coming back, coming back, coming back
No way, no way
