I watch the breeze blow the dust away You've come from war Your knees hit the floor And your smart mouth has run out of things to say You burned right out Like a candle at both ends And you pushed away your family and friends While you were growing old Yeah I was making tracks Fast times are flashing by If you blink then you might Miss the world as it flies by And in the corner of your eye I will be there making tracks Slowly I'm watching the you that I knew rot away 5 years wore you down cos You stayed in this town And it'll be the death of you one day Ambitions key to making progress Without it you regress, depress, undress, I guess, Oh what a fucking mess you've made While you were growing old Yeah I was making tracks Fast times are flashing by If you blink then you might Miss the world as it flies by And in the corner of your eye I will be there making tracks The reason you stayed Will always stay a mystery to me and oh Was it for love or Or Was it because the light behind your eyes burned out While you were growing old Yeah I was making tracks Fast times are flashing by If you blink then you might Miss the world as it flies by And in the corner of your eye This static dream can never last Instead of getting old Yeah I'll be making tracks Just take my hand and I promise you that We can run towards the sky A part of you can never die So long as you live life making tracks

Blind Belief In Another 05:13

Have you ever seen a picture on a wall Hanging all crooked like it doesn't belong there at all? The glass is broken, the shards are on the floor The frame is crooked but I just can't lose any more Blood from my veins or air from my chest and I'm Losing my feet with this unrest so I'll leave you right to it Because it's what you do best Tear me to pieces the way you always do I've been trying for years now to recover What you went and stole while we were under the covers And it was blind belief in another That means that I'm wasting away Slowly but surely Despite the fact you assure me that I'll be okay I'm wasting away And I know that you know that I know That you think of me alone at night And you know this is bullshit You see right through it So I'll lie through my teeth and say that I'm fine This conversation is lies, lies and dirty lies And I am nothing if not a liar We burned this house down fighting fire with fire And it was blind belief in another That means that I'm wasting away Slowly but surely Despite the fact you assure me that I'll be okay I'm wasting away [Break] And it was blind belief in another That means that I'm wasting away Slowly but surely Despite the fact you assure me that I'll be okay And it was blind belief in another That means that I'm wasting away Slowly but surely Despite the fact you assure me that I'll be okay I'm wasting away

I've been told that love's a losing game But you said "Come on baby, I just want to play" And so we roll the dice, we keep playing and it's nice I can't wait for you to tell me all about your day But we go on, we get things wrong We kick and scream and fight through almost every night And so I wrote you one more song So we can bring this back down and make it right Cause it takes two To fall in love But it takes on To mess it up And all is fair In love and war But I don't care 1, 2, 3, 4 All I really need is that 3 word lie To come out of your lips and then I'm terrified Whenever you say it don't know what to do but All I really know is that I'm missing you You tell me that I'm an old soul Trapped in the body of a younger man You say I'm too damn cautious, that my face just makes you naseous Well I'm sorry honey, but I'm doing the best I can Cause it takes two To start a fight Don't know about you but I can go all night You're laissez faire I'm such a bore But I don't care 1, 2, 3, 4 All I really need is that 3 word lie To come out of your lips and then I'm terrified Whenever you say it don't know what to do but All I really know is that I'm missing you Living our best lives Telling our worst lies Take some time to realise There's no life behind real eyes Living our best lives Telling our worst lies Take some time to realise There's no life behind real eyes Living our best lives Telling our worst lies Living our best lives Telling our worst lies All I really need is that 3 word lie To come out of your lips and then I'm terrified Whenever you say it don't know what to do but All I really know is that I'm missing you All I really need is that 3 word lie To come out of your lips and then I'm terrified Whenever you say it don't know what to do but All I really know is that I'm missing you Living our best lives Telling our worst lies Living our best lives Telling our worst lies

Angel please, just tell me what I need to know Why do I feel so low? Is it because I lied at 17? Is it because I bruise so easily? My oh my Grit your teeth and bite your tongue You've seen so much for one so young Smile, 'cause nobody cares at all Smile, 'cause nobody wants to know Jeez louise, please release me from these chains of thought The ceiling and sweet release as I go up in smoke We feel so high cos we want to die The irony of a cloudy sky Smile, 'cause nobody cares at all Smile, 'cause nobody wants to know [Break] Smile, 'cause nobody cares at all Smile, 'cause nobody wants to know

I need it, I want it, I feel it in my bones I’m ticking over like a bomb and I’m about to explode The anger, the rage, the blood and the spit We’ve had enough and we won’t swallow any more bullshit The lies and the hypocrisy that make a fucking mockery Of a country that was made on the backs of slaves But good things come to those who wait And your big fat lying mouth has sealed your fate Can you feel it coming? The rising tide that’s coming to sweep you away Can you heed the warning? History is made on Revolution Day Genocide already fucking yesterday’s headline Another mass shooting just in time for the deadline Cops shooting kids in the street cos they’re black Now isn’t it time that we take it back By the people, for the people, what a fucking lie A leader at the wheel who can’t even fuckin drive Going 60 miles per hour heading towards damnation And the fall of western civilization Can you feel it coming? The rising tide that’s coming to sweep you away Can you heed the warning? History is made on Revolution Day [Break] Can you feel it coming? The rising tide that’s coming to sweep you away Can you heed the warning? History is made on Revolution Day

Light A Match 04:34

I've found a place in my mind where I can go to be alone It's oh so quiet, and oh so cold And yet it feels like I am coming home I lie above the grass, under a blackened sky The stars are shining tonight I'll pull them down for you if you want me to But I think I might need a little bit more height So come on light a match And throw it out to me Break up the dark And show me my heart And who I'm meant to be And we could build a house And knock it down again And so brick by brick we'll forget all this Let's loose ourselves in the diamond sky Where did you go when I needed you the most? You ran away to hide behind a rolling stone And when it rolled away, I saw that you were gone Never to be found, my feet are on the ground, And you're dead and gone I am lost, I am lost in the blinding lights I am found, I am found in the darkest of nights So come on light a match And throw it out to me Break up the dark And show me my heart And who I'm meant to be And we could build a house And knock it down again And so brick by brick we'll forget all this Let's loose ourselves in the diamond sky We could be something more than we've ever been before We could be something new, burning bright like a fire with love and desire We could be something great, impossible, magical mystical So come on light that match So come on light a match And throw it out to me Break up the dark So come on light a match And throw it out to me Break up the dark And show me my heart And who I'm meant to be And we could build a house And knock it down again And so brick by brick we'll forget all this Let's loose ourselves in the diamond sky

Memories 03:39
lyrics

I’ve been living off of bad dreams and television screens So I regress to the places I know Drinking in Alice’s basement, and playing central perk I’ve never felt so far from home, I’ve never felt like such a fucking jerk I’ve done this all to myself and I know that for sure I sing along with Deaf Havana, screaming I’m a fucking bore I’ve been my own undoing and I regret every word I should re-learn how to make friends from Big Bird I’ve been burning bridges since I turned 17 And my ship is slowly sinking, I’m one fucked up S.O.B So I’ll do my grand finale, and I’ll take my final bow, So you can drag me home so I can sleep somehow All I have of home is these pictures on my wall And somehow it’s so much worse than nothing at all Please won’t somebody call me, or at least a fucking text? I’m lonely, hungry, sad and it’s been months since I had sex I never tried to be the bad guy, my intentions were always good The only problem was I had no one to talk to, I would just sit alone and play Pokémon I’m an alien in my home town and an outcast in this place I could really do with a saving grace I miss the memories I had, I miss the home I used to have I want to take back what I said, I want to sleep in my own bed I miss the memories!
