All The Bad Decisions That Brought Me Here

Why can’t you see? Just what it’s doing to me To have my brain pulled out my skull And turn it against me It’s not fair That you can pull out my hair And tell me that it’s all my fault And seem like you don’t care My heart Is falling apart From all the disappointment After yet another false start Stop now You’re breaking me down Turn me inside out and leave me Here in this ghost town Cos I’m bruising And I’m turning Black and Blue Inside out and upside down from being without you Lock me up And throwa- Way the Key Cos the only one to blame for who I am is me Why’ve I gotta be the one to fall? With a bullet in my head and my back against the wall And all the bad decisions that brought me here Why’ve I gotta be the one to die? When you’re the only one putting needles in my eyes And you’re the only thing that keeps me here Let’s talk it out What it’s all been about This back and forth for all it’s worth Is wearing me down Let’s keep it real Because I’m trying to feel Exactly that you want from me An ego idealised And you’ve been trying to hide And keep disguised the hatred you’ve been holding inside For so long You’ve been doing it wrong Been dodging all the issues ‘stead of going in headstrong I’m losing my bearings And time is fading fast Lose my grip, can’t hold on And I’m not gonna last I’m slipping, can’t help it And my body’s in tatters I’m diseased, in pieces I’m broken, bruised and battered Why’ve I gotta be the one to fall? With a bullet in my head and my back against the wall And all the bad decisions that brought me here Why’ve I gotta be the one to die? When you’re the only one putting needles in my eyes And you’re the only thing that keeps me here I have to live with all my Choices look me in the eye The dreams that I’ve been chasing Decisions I’m embracing I have to live with all my Choices look me in the eye The dreams that I’ve been chasing Decisions I’m embracing Why’ve I gotta be the one to fall? With a bullet in my head and my back against the wall And all the bad decisions that brought me here Why’ve I gotta be the one to die? When you’re the only one putting needles in my eyes And you’re the only thing that keeps me here

Ghost Town 04:00
It's always the same it never changes The same old streets and names and places I think it's driving me insane Somebody ought to check my brain Cos I might as well be Dead and buried for the good it'll do me Cos nobody knows us here And we're tired of being We are the ghosts from this ghost town We haunt the streets at night And dance in the dark 'til we feel alright for a while Then we sing ourselves to sleep Like whoa-oa-oh Like whoa-oa-oh All my friends have left this town far behind In the past in their memories And I know that it's shit And I want to leave it but I can't Cos it's still real to me It's still home, it's still here It's where I learned to face my hear But there's so few of us left here now We're like ghosts We are the ghosts from this ghost town We haunt the streets at night And dance in the dark 'til we feel alright for a while Then we sing ourselves to sleep Like whoa-oa-oh Like whoa-oa-oh (We're ghosts, we're ghosts, singing whoa-oh-oh, whoa-oh-oh) I swear I'll never be the same again Too much time not being time well spent Let's build a castle out of bricks and mortar And start a vision of a brand new order There's no more waiting the time is now We are the ghosts from the ghost town The ghosts from the ghost town We are the ghosts from this ghost town We haunt the streets at night And dance in the dark 'til we feel alright for a while Then we sing ourselves to sleep Like whoa-oa-oh Like whoa-oa-oh We are the ghosts from this ghost town We haunt the streets at night And dance in the dark 'til we feel alright for a while Then we sing ourselves to sleep Like whoa-oa-oh Like whoa-oa-oh

Over & Under 03:16
Sat in the back of your car Smoke is fillin my eyes Six foot and twelve drinks deep You’re gonna bury me alive Bound and gagged and beat half dead I find it harder to breathe A delirious mess of a man And I’m down on my knees And all through this I’ve got a smile on my face Over and under again Feet in the clouds and with the world above my head Upside down and inside out, I’m hanging by a thread Over and under (over and under) Over and under again Go and pour me another one I think I’m starting to see What you slipped into my veins Is slowly killing me Just drop me down by the railway track cos I think that I can find my way home It’s when you beat me black and blue I know that I am never alone And all through that you had a smile on your face Over and under again Feet in the clouds and with the world above my head Upside down and inside out, I’m hanging by a thread Over and under (over and under) Over and under again BREAK Over and under again Feet in the clouds and with the world above my head Upside down and inside out, I’m hanging by a thread Over and under (over and under) Over and under again

Infect Me 03:54
I can’t see you behind that mask You wear it so you can forget the past Disinfecting your soul from your sins But you can’t go back and start over again You made your bed now stay there Crazy is as crazy does Over weeks and months you’ve come undone And whisper in my ear from miles away Can I come over, I want to play Like I’m just your plaything I’m going crazy Locked inside of these four walls Got isolation sickness Up to my eyeballs Feeling infectious Like I’ve got the disease So come on over babe Stop being a tease Infect Me Infect Me You’re just so outrageous You’re just so contagious You’re just so toxic to me (toxic to me) You are my sickness and centre Quarantined inside my head Can’t tell if I’m dying or wish that I’m dead Cure me or kill me that’s all that I ask Show me your teeth, take off your mask Too close for comfort now I’m going crazy Locked inside of these four walls Got isolation sickness Up to my eyeballs Feeling infectious Like I’ve got the disease So come on over babe Stop being a tease Infect Me Infect Me ‘Cause all I want is you right here, right now You’re my affliction and I just don’t know how To get rid of you, addiction, But I don’t want to I’m going crazy Locked inside of these four walls Got isolation sickness Up to my eyeballs Feeling infectious Like I’ve got the disease So come on over babe Stop being a tease Infect Me Infect Me

Soothing You’re moving In and out focus Physically poetry Lying I’m dying To pull you closer, hold you down Breathe into me, come unbound And you shock and surprise me And we feel like we could be lightning Burn me just for fun Pull me I come undone Static Climactic Palpitations, sweat from every Pore, so close you see right through me And you shock and surprise me And we feel like we could be lightning Burn me just for fun Pull me I come undone

Glow 02:59
Slow, you're moving slow And the light illuminates and glows Around you and forms a halo Do you even know How the light refracts right through your hair And fills the air? With the streetlight glare And I sit and stare I hate to see you go But I love to watch you glow Flow, the ebb and flow Of your body is just like a show A river that only I can see And the current drags me Down below the surface I could die like this Let you fill my lungs What have I become Do you even know Just how you glow? Seems like a fantasy That I get to be The only one who gets to see you glow

Tin Man 03:07
You have no idea If I disappear What Would you say Would you cry for me Do or die for me Why Be that way? Don't be a killjoy Old boy All because they took your favourite toy Wind up your Tin Man With no heart and with no soul Tear out everything Start over again You'll Get it right Got a second chance You can have this dance Won't Put up a fight Don't wanna lose face Lose the race Missed the starting gun Now that's no fun Smile won't you child Playtime's over Time to go back home Rip a hole in me Take control of me Pull All my strings I'll do what you say Why you gotta be that way Hand On my wheel You're a control freak I can't speak With your hand down my throat Oh I can't help but choke On my words and my tongue And the air in my lungs Suffocate and censor my soul

All Mine 04:33
Sunny weather and the sky is fallin Sunny disposition ain't my callin Sorry if you don't like my style The waters warm so you should stay a while Smile for me show me your teeth Come up so you can breathe Shed your skin, dry your tears Cos in this house we don't have no fears Leave it all behind Leave the world outside Cos we run the show tonight Cos I wear the crown And I'm the best in town I might be dressed in rags but I don't mind yeah I just wanna live in the sunshine Not a penny to my name but I'm rich man Cause the world is mine, all mine (the world is all mine) Feels like the world is turnin upside down Is there a reason you don't want me around I'm on the ceiling but I can't dance Spending my days stuck in trance Cut my fakers out with some scissors Cos all I need is my brother's and sisters By my side so I can take over The breaks over, time for overexposure What a time to be To be alive The king of the world at twenty five I'm doin fine I am alright I might be dressed in rags but I don't mind yeah I just wanna live in the sunshine Not a penny to my name but I'm rich man Cause the world is mine, all mine (the world is all mine) Hold the world in my hands I could be someone And I don't have plans to stay Paint a picture of me Hang it on your wall I am walking out today I might be dressed in rags but I don't mind yeah I just wanna live in the sunshine Not a penny to my name but I'm rich man Cause the world is mine, all mine (the world is all mine) I might be dressed in rags but I don't mind yeah I just wanna live in the sunshine Not a penny to my name but I'm rich man Cause the world is mine, all mine (the world is all mine)

Doomsday 04:18
I hear the warning siren call Ignore this like I ignored them all Ready myself for the fall Get on my knees and start to crawl And I don’t think that I can go through this All again it feels like the earth Opened up and dragged me to hell All so I could taste you again Strawberry sweet and sulphur So bitter and so sweet You circle like a vulture In the desert heat I heard you say, don’t slip away Such a cliché, you feel like doomsday I heard you say, don’t slip away Such a cliché, you feel like doomsday I feel the beating in your chest See the sweat dripping down your dress Feel like the walls are caving in And I’m right back at the start again It repeats and repeats and I’ve fallen too deep And I’ve seen it before, but I still want more I didn’t learn my lesson You are my curse and blessing I heard you say, don’t slip away Such a cliché, you feel like doomsday I heard you say, don’t slip away Such a cliché, you feel like doomsday

Dissocia 04:09
Help me I’m fading From reality To TV screens My grip Slipping Pixelating My perception Out of focus Out of mind Interlocked and Intertwined Sheer devotion Pain defined Leave me deaf Or leave me blind Euphoria Melancholia Dysphoria Sensoria Hysteria Anaesthesia Mania Dissocia Fade in Fade out Wear me in Wear me out Want to show me How to fear me How to hate me How to know me Fear myself Hate myself Know myself No one else Euphoria Melancholia Dysphoria Sensoria Hysteria Anaesthesia Mania Dissocia
