Those Thoughts
Caught in all the patterns we create
Running from the lies inside your head
Scared of all the things that never come
Live a life of fear and then it's gone
Remembering a day,
When you were not afraid,
Can't seem to find your way back there again
Oh but please don't say, your hope is gone
You don't have to be, who you've become
When you could be anything, oh my god
Please just don't give into them
Into those thoughts
Thoughts that tell you baby you're no good
Doubts that stop you trying when you should
Worry kept your life stuck on a shelf
Urges make you want to hurt yourself
Don't listen they're not true
Your brain's fucking with you
I don't know why I'd tell you if I knew
Oh but please don't say, your hope is gone
You don't have to be, who you've become
When you could be anything, oh my god
Please just don't give into them
Into those thoughts
When you could be anything, oh my god
Please just don't give into them, you gotta fight them off
Yeah you could be anything, oh my god
Please just don't give into them
Into those thoughts

2. Who Do You Trust?

Who Do You Trust?
Who do you trust? Is it the man in the hot-seat? Quotes in the paper
Telling you all you need to know about why your country's going to war.
Who do you trust? Is it a face on the TV? Talking about heartbreak
Can you tell me that you know them well and can you say for sure they got nothing to sell?
Who do you trust? Is it the teacher in the classroom? Talki about history
Well how do you know that what they say is true or is it simply just a point of view?
Who do you trust these days? It's getting harder and harder to tell
They don't care who you are, they just got something to sell
Who do you trust? Is it a man who gets you high? Saying his shit's so fine
Well how can you think for yourself if your mind is gone it's off the shelf
Who do you trust? Is it the face in the bathroom? Smiling back at you
Well don't you know that they got there first and you're not your own man can it get worse now?
Who do you trust these days? It's getting harder and harder to tell
They don't care who you are, they just got something to sell
Who do you trust? Can you hear the earth crying? For a profit she's dying.
You know the man's gonna tell you everything is fine, so long as you keep him in shirts and ties and souls.
Cause that's what he buys
Who do you trust? Is it a guy who just writes songs? Well maybe he's all wrong
Yeah and maybe UFOs are true with the loch ness monster and santa too!
Who do you trust? Is it the people yelling truth? Although they ain't got no proof
Conspiracy theories don't help me much, you need cold hard facts for the flames to touch now
Who do you trust these days? It's getting harder and harder to tell
They don't care who you are, they just got something to sell
I said, who do you trust these days you know the bad one's are starting to smell
They don't care who you are, they just got something to sell
Who do you trust...?

Sirens Call
Fishing for a soul, on a boat far from the shore
I heard a sirens call on the radio
No land that I can see, the further I go the more I seek
Sailing through a million stars to find the one I need
I'm a storm away, Arctic seas I have to brave
Take a chance against the wind, maybe you could rescue me?
Cause I'm lost, but I'm casting out a net
Sirens call, were you just inside my head
If I don't find you, I hope my friends will understand
Why I've gone
Now I'm rolling, on the ocean
Wish I could tell you all the strangest things I've seen
Not heaven, somewhere in between
I'm a storm away, restless seas I have to brave
Take a chance on everything, maybe I could rescue you?
Yes I'm lost, but I'm casting out a net
Sirens call, was it just inside my head?
If I don't get back, I hope back home they'll understand
Cause I'm all worn out, and the waves crash across my bow
Fighting doubt, just to keep on going now
I'll fight it all the way
Yes I'm lost, but I'm casting out a net
Sirens call, forever playing in my head
If I don’t get back, I hope they all will understand
That I’m lost, but I’m casting out a net
Sirens call, oh I swear I’ll find you yet
If I don’t get back, hope I believe it at the end
Why I've gone
And risked it all
I'm praying that you rescue me
I know that I could rescue you

4. Get Out Of Your Head

Get Out Of Your Head
Getting stuck, ‘cause you focus way too much, on how it’s gotta be
Stuck in the mud of a mind that beats you up, if you don’t succeed
See them peacock in their summer clothes
Their life’s a movie and they’re all heroes in it
The things that you want, they’re all slipping out of view
‘Cause you’re too afraid, to put out a hand, just in case they laugh at you
Oh, just get out of your head
You’re gonna scare yourself to death
What the hell did you expect?
When you’re so hard with yourself
Life is tough when you care too much because, we’re just the butt of a joke
A freaky chance of the cosmic dance so just say fuck it lets get on with the show
We all just woke up on this little rock
Nobody asked us so it’s not our fault, is it?
The things that you want, let them come now if they choose
And don’t be afraid, to push them away, if they start to torment you
Oh, just get out of your head
You’ve got a life to live instead
When the hell’s it gonna end
Man, you’re too hard with yourself
You might even start to have some fun
Take the pressure off and loosen up, you’ll see
The things that you need, they’re all right in front of you
And you just got caught, up in it all, like we always seem to do
Oh just get out of your head
You’re too hard with yourself
You could try to be a friend
A friend to yourself
And get out of this hell
Sometimes I feel like letting go, because
The climb is hard, and I, just don’t seem to move at all
But when I look down, at where I started from
Well I’ve, climbed so high
I can almost touch the sky

Let It Go
Blaming yourself, brooding over why it all went wrong, and what you should have done
Taking offense, they put you down and now your pride is hurt, it’s really eating you up
Don’t waste your time and energy no good thing will come
You gotta let it go, lay your weapons down, make peace and go home
You gotta let it go, the anger you feel now, means they’ve already won
You gotta let it go
You grew up together, something changed and now they never call, wish it could be how it was
You had a lover, but they cheated on ya now your heart is broken, never gonna trust no more
Wake up, life’s too short for getting stuck, you have to move on
And just gotta let it go, you know that if you don’t you’re gonna sink like a stone
You gotta let it go, even if you’re right it don’t matter no more
You gotta let it go
My heart aches, it’s all getting more than I can take
Yes, you can scream and roar, but it ain’t gonna help at all,
So breathe out and just let it go
Everything could change again tomorrow
You gotta let it go, open up your heart and good things will follow
You gotta let it go
You can’t change what has been
Just let go and you can be free you know
Anytime you want
You could just let it go (repeat)

Night Terrors
It’s quarter past three, I can’t get to sleep
Here come those old night terrors now
Smiling at me, flashing their teeth
Drawn in by the smell of fear
I’ve nowhere to run, I wait as they come
Searching with blindly groping feet
I reach for my gun but the bottle is done
As they settle down to feed
That’s when you wake
When you smile and you say
My love
There’s no one here but us
You and I we have what it takes
For the darkest nights and the longest days
Our love will shelter us
Cause that’s what it does
Oh now can you feel your heart pounding hard?
How do we deal with these dark racing thoughts?
How can we ever rest when it never stops no it never stops?
It’s alright, that’s what you say
All these phantoms will just fade away
You just need a little trust
You and I we have what it takes
You got my love and it’s here to stay
It’s watching over us
Cause that’s what it does
You can rest now cause your safe
Say goodbye now to those old hard days
Let the nightmares all just fade away
This world was meant for us
You and I we have what it takes
For the darkest night and the longest day
Our love will shelter us
Cause that’s what it does

7. Face It Alone

Face It Alone
Under these skies, I feel so small
Like I’m almost nothing at all
All of these questions, on all of these doors
Worn a hole in my head with these thoughts
It’s like we’re always just go
Running in circles, digging up holes
Trying to forget what we don’t wanna know
Tell me, you know, what it’s like
And at least I know
I won’t face it…
Alone, I fall
And I’m fractured, I’m broken
Like our outraged hearts
We’re all fragments desperate to be whole
Just want to be happy, like everyone else
But you can’t seem to get past yourself
Some things are broken, and can be repaired
But some problems can only be shared
Still we’re always just go
Running round backwards, filling in holes
Trying to pretend that we don’t care at all
Tell me, you know, what it’s like
And at least I know, I don’t face it alone
Tell you, I get scared and uptight
And at least you know, you won’t face it..
Alone, I fall
And I’m fractured, I’m broken
Like our outraged hearts
We’re all fragments desperate to be whole
Don't you know by now? We're all sinking on the same boat.
And when at last this ship goes down. If we hold each others head up we won't drown.
We won't make it alone.

Never Gonna Let you Go
If I go before you, then I'll come back to haunt you
Cause even in death I'll still need you, still want you
I'll be waiting in the darkness, can you see me, can you feel me?
Cause I'm right here beside you and it's still, yeah it's still me
And I just can't let you go, no I'll never let you go
Forever was what you said, my love is stronger than death
And I just can't let you go, no I'll never let you go
Don't move on, don't move on,
I'll be watching and waiting
And don't bring home another, cause I'll be screaming and hating
And I just can't let you go, no I'll never let you go,
Forever was what you said, my love is stronger than death,
I just can't let you go, no I'll never let you go
She said, love's gone
She said, move on
She's so, headstrong
She said, so long
But what about me?
And I just can't let you go, no I'll never let you go
Forever was what you said, my love is stronger than death,
I just can't let you go, no I'll never let you go

What Are We Waiting For?
I don't even know your name, but I think that we're the same
Something's missing that I could replace
You raise a smile but it's no disguise, cause you're not smiling with your eyes, someone, stole your smile away
And like an apple without a core, just like me
Once you were whole but not anymore, we could be
Maybe this could be something now, if you never swim then you'll never drown, but the only thing that's worth going down for is love, so what are we waiting for?
Oh I'm not saying this will turn out right, all I'm saying is that it just might, broken hearts, need to hope or they'll just die
But there's life in us two yet, and yeah maybe
We're a little bruised but we can mend, you could save me
(Hold on to hope keep your love alive, it's all over when that fire dies)
Maybe this could be something now, if you never swim then you'll never drown, but the only thing that's worth going down for is love, so what are we waiting for?
What are you frightened of?
We've both been burned, but this could be our turn
And if we get knocked down, at least we're standing up right now.

It's Easy For You
Late night, soft light
Hold you, go soon
Can't be too late
She said it's easy for you, to crawl back, to fall back into
So easy, for you, cause you've got that but how do I get through?
Hells place, lost days
Poor lies, soft cries
Where do we go?
She said it's easy for you, to crawl back, to fall back into
So easy, for you, cause you've got that but how do I get through?
Knowing where you go to
Where I can’t call you if I need to
‘Cause I’m just someone you’re on loan to, oh oh
I’m on fire, I’m on fire, I’m on fire
Oh, oh, oh, I’m on fire, for you
