Arrows

You want a new gun? I'll give you the bullets.
You've got a knife, let me turn around
Put it in my back, I'll let you throw it
In my life, you are my favourite sound
Don't you just know it
If you're everything I've dreamed about
Why is it that in my dreams you hurt me so?
You're everything I cry about, about
Yet I don't ever want to let you go

I'm the apple on that poor boys head
You're aiming that arrow straight through my core
He crys as you pull your arm away from the thread
But it's me who takes the blow and I want more
I'm screaming, I am screaming
For something more than this
I'm bleeding, I am bleeding
But you silence me with a kiss, a kiss

So this is me, am I worth it?
You're like water and I'm
An electric pulse on a broken circuit
We don't work, yet there's sparks
A twisted force combines our hearts

If you're everything I've dreamed about
Why is it that in my dreams you hurt me so?
You're everything I cry about, about
Yet I don't ever want to let you go

I'm the apple on that poor boys head
You're aiming that arrow straight through my core
He crys as you pull your arm away from the thread
But it's me who takes the blow and I want more
I'm screaming, I am screaming
For something more than this
I'm bleeding, I am bleeding
But you silence me with a kiss, a kiss

No Bones

this mess is unthreading
our bodies are sown
we forgot where we are heading
beacause you've got no bones, no bones
the children are forgetting
how much they've grown
they don't know where they are heading
they've got no bones, no bones

fight your corner stand your ground
forget what you have lost
and cherish what you've found
it all ends the same
you always forget your name
when everything is dust
we'll find our way again


this mess is unthreading
our bodies are sown
we forgot where we are heading
beacause you've got no bones, no bones
the children are forgetting
how much they've grown
they don't know where they are heading
they've got no bones, no bones


save your face save this place
breath in and take
anything that you can taste
sailing on hate
it all ends the same
you always forget your name
when everything is dust
we'll find our way again

this mess is unthreading
our bodies are sown
we forgot where we are heading
beacause you've got no bones, no bones
the children are forgetting
how much they've grown
they don't know where they are heading
they've got no bones, no bones

Masterpiece

(Verse one)
This sleeping dog in my head
Just won’t lie
I gotta a hunch that
If I make it
I will feel his bite
What does your skin feel like?
Do you mind, would you mind?
If I made myself touch
Woah.

(Bridge)
They have their dirty little rumours 
But we know the truth
I can’t keep my own secrets
And I won’t keep yours
Come on now
Let’s settle this score

(Chorus)
Why are you being so selfish
Can’t you see, I need this for me
So honey
This your last chance
So take it, take it
Gotta be so true
So baby don’t you 
fake it, Fake it

(Verse two)

It doesn’t seem you want this anymore
You looked into my heart
You didn’t just look around
You took a grand tour
I just created our love
It was a masterpiece
Do you mind, would you mind?
If I had you, piece by piece
Woah.

Hold me to you

everything seems better 
when i close my eyes
i don't have to look at you
i can just hide
dream through the night
i'll try and catch you
i'll try and be, at the otherside

where i go from here
nobody seems to know
it hurts to stay here
but i don't know if i should go
i don't wanna runaway
but my fears i cannot show
it's time to end my day
hold me to you 
hear me to you
bring me to you
before this dream fades, away

i kept all your letters
they're all i have
holding me down
always, all ways for you
dream through the night
i'll try and catch you
i'll try and be, at the otherside

where i go from here
nobody seems to know
it hurts to stay here
but i don't know if i should go
i don't wanna runaway
but my fears i cannot show
it's time to end my day
hold me to you 
hear me to you
bring me to you
before this dream fades, away

it's not about you
it's not even me
take me away
take me away
but i'll be running home again

Bon Voyage

my friend your ship has sailed
i left you behind on the deck
now everything's so frail
my heart is getting sea sick
under the final sky
this is good bye


so bon voyage
won't you send me a post card
i'll send you a post card
i'll never be too far
this will be hard
bon voyage, bon voyage


i could of been the best trip
i could of been the time of your life
you didnt want to take it
you were frozen, now i'm taking flight


so bon voyage
won't you send me a post card
i'll send you a post card
i'll never be too far
this is too hard
bon voyage, bon voyage


i'm never coming back
i'm never coming back
i got a one way ticket
because you wanted it like that
this ship has sailed
this ship has sailed

bon voyage, bon voyage

i never sent you a postcard
now i'm too far
bon voyage.

Twists & Bends

cos i got this l-l-lovebite
burnt on me like a tattoo
i don't m-m-mind
cos it's all i got left of me and you
i take your picture in my pocket
everywhere i go
i ask myself why we lost it
i don't really know

Bridge

it comes down to
everything
falling through

Chorus
and i,
hate the fact, that jealousy seems to be my best friend
oooh, wooah
on the radio-oh-oh-oh, our song never ever ends
oooh, wooah
i seem to follo-o-ow, all the twists and bends
twists and be-e-nds
that took me to yooou.

Summer is Over

i'll make it away from here
but i'll come back dont' fear my dear
i'll love you forever i swear
save the sunshine for another day
then the new kids will be here to play
but you'll always belong to us
i've got to move on just,
i can't let you go

where do we go when the place
we practically called home
when suddnely it's turning cold
the good times we had
you realise are bad
it's over, summer is over
you fell inlove but it was never real
suddenly the hill loses it's appeal
you throw your self away
in heart break
you always stay
but when the seasons change
you'll be back again
you'll be back again


i'll make it away from here
but i'll come back dont' fear my dear
i'll love you forever i swear
save the sunshine for another day
then the new kids will be here to play
but you'll always belong to us
i've got to move on just,
i can't let you go

with my friends i stood so tall
but you shot us down
together we fall
in a spiral of disrepair
oh how i crave the dusky air
of all those nights we sat
we're always going back
to where you captured our hearts
and murdered it before we could start
the sun has set
place your bet
we'll be back again
we'll be back again


i'll make it away from here
but i'll come back dont' fear my dear
i'll love you forever i swear
save the sunshine for another day
then the new kids will be here to play
but you'll always belong to us
i've got to move on just,
i can't let you go


bottles of cider
i can't ever find her
that girl you used to be
before you found that hill
before you found me
she was beautiful
now the truth is out
a shot half full
i missed it
and i fall where you sit

Runaway (Ft Jonny)

a young delinquent yea a fuckin toerag
he's got a scar for every bad time he's had
a pissed anarchist with a tight clenched fist
he’s got a tear in his eye and razor to his wrist

stuck in a world where he’s running away from the bullshit problems of everyday
he’s got a mum on the bottle and a dad on dole
and a young girlfriend that’s outta control

My head was always and empty space
I don't ever want to retrace
it's ending before me
I lived and now I lie
I lived and now I lie
I don't even need to try
No sweet sympathy,
What was coming has come for me
I live and now I die
I live and now I die

from the start i knew you were trouble
but there was something i saw in you
i thought i could pull you through
it's amazing how you push all hope aside
i'm giving you every chance and all you can do is lie
and now i cry, i cry, cry

My head was always and empty space
I don't ever want to retrace
it's ending before me
I lived and now I lie
I lived and now I lie
I don't even need to try
No sweet sympathy,
What was coming has come for me
I live and now I die
I live and now I die


every single night he asks himself why?
this life’s got a purpose and that purpose is to die
so with his last bit of money and runnin outta time
he gets the late train to take him to the end of the line

with a clear mind not a thought in his head
he screams out loud I JUST WANNA BE DEAD
he cries where he lye’s with his head on the tracks
tonight answers all his questions cos he aint ever comeing back

My head was always and empty space
I don't ever want to retrace
it's ending before me
I lived and now I lie
I lived and now I lie
I don't even need to try
No sweet sympathy,
What was coming has come for me
I live and now I die
I live and now I die

and now this drip is in my arm
and i wonder what i've done

i thought you were fun
but it's gone too far, and i am on my own

you've lived and now i've died
you've lived and now i've died
there's nowhere i can hide

you've lived and now you've died
you've lived and now you've died

there's nowhere i can hide....

Morning Sun (Unfinished)

you've made me forget why i didn't want a one night stand
you've got the voice of a snake charmer
and i'm waiting in your hand
your eyes call to me from across the room
now i'm trapped in your gaze
our bodies could touch
and away we'd blaze

but you don't really care about me
and i don't give a damn about you
this should be so easy to get over
but now i'm wishing it didn't start

touch me, it's for one night only
just another chapter to my story
i never meant it, not a thing
next thing i know
we're out on the streets
next thing i know
we're under your sheets
together we're coming undone
then we'll realise what we've done
blinking in the morning sun.

Borders

hold me down, put those bars across my eyes,
a lonely room, that's colder with you at my side
i've given up, i don't think it's worth it, part-time love on a crucial circuit. 
So take them, take these hands and force them up my back,
lock me up, but don't ever say i told you that.


I think we've reached our borders
and our love escaped over the fence
things were said a million times but never meant

if you count all our summers
and give my bullets to all the gunners
you could reap what we've sown
and let me believe your lies
 build borders of your own

I used to think you were beautiful, in every single way
but you seem to turn more ugly by the day
with such diamond grace
i'm hoping you waste away
this empty night, it's not you at the other side
promises get broken, broken like us.

I think we've reached our borders
and our love escaped over the fence
things were said a million times but never meant

if you count all our summers
and give my bullets to all the gunners
you could reap what we've sown
and let me believe your lies
 build borders of your own

Why do we hurt, hurt
Why must you drag me back over, over
Into the castle, over your wall
Im on my knees with you so tall
Break them bridges, break them bridges
Burn those borders, burn those borders
Borders, borders.

I think we've reached our borders
and our love escaped over the fence
things were said a million times but never meant
if you count all our summers
and give my bullets to all the gunners
you could reap what we've sown
and let me believe your lies
 build borders of your own
