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

Shock & Surprise
03:42
|
|||
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
