If there’s a problem it’s all in your head, Thinking it over the things that I said, But I never noticed watching it all turn red. Making me feel like I’m lost at sea, Am I a part of what you believe? But I never noticed that you were made for me So open your eyes love, And look to the sky love, So open your eyes love, and wait for me So open your eyes love, it’s all in your head The whistling wind, calling for me, Sharing its life, try to make peace, But I never noticed that you were made for me Making me feel like I’m lost at sea, Am I a part of the cure, make you what you believe? But I never noticed that you were made for me

Saviour 02:50
I tried walking; I didn’t know where to go and I’m not, Saying I’m sorry, you know I love you so, But I’m just tired and hungry; I’m trying to keep the beat, But I’m just, losing myself, it’s everything I see I’m not a saviour I tried walking; I didn’t know where to go I know I’m, Scared of something, scared of being alone But I’m just tired and hungry; I’m trying to keep the beat, But I’m just, losing myself, it’s everything I see
3.
Give Me Soul 03:30
It’s the price I pay, When it’s all the same, and I’m, Losing sense of time, wasting precious life The world will wait, Wait for my mistakes, it’s my, Sense of pride again, will you ever give me soul? Give me soul Come on now won’t you give me
4.
My Son 02:42
There’s something happening around the corner, There’s someone taking me down without warning, And it’s stealing all my pride, Taking all my time away There’s someone calling out for a witness, There’s someone trying to beat the system, And it’s stealing all my pride, Taking all my time away You’re a wild one, But you’re my son, night and day
5.
Girl this is your last confession, Lately I’ve been asking questions, Maybe I should be leaving you alone? I’m sick and tired of all this waiting, Maybe I should be, anticipating? Or maybe I should be leaving you alone? Take me away, lead me astray, Do what you want to do Lately I’ve been going crazy, Moving ‘round, within these days and, My kid is leaving me alone Should I wait for someone’s silence? Could I be someone’s romancing? Or maybe I should be leaving you alone? Take me away, lead me astray, Do what you want to do

Water, water everywhere and not a moment to sink. Lights, lights, gone away, and cold, too cold to think. Dark, dark, across the room, I heard you cry, my friend. Come close and don't let go till daylight comes again.

Gone Girl 03:52
What will you do? When you look at me that way, And the words just drift away, And the hours that you’re waiting fade to grey What will you do? When you’re hanging on the line, You really messed it up this time, I’m not saying that I’m sorry, but I’ll be fine And in the daytime, I’m looking for something, Maybe someone, to pick up the show A star in the making, but don’t keep me waiting, Cos we’ve been waiting here so long What will you do? When you look at me that way, I know, all the games you play, Don’t mean nothing, and I’m sorry for the things I said When you look at me that way
8.
When You Run 03:54
You make me smile, In the fields we used to run, Taking our time in the sun, This time, we might get it right And all I see, Is a picture of you on the wall, Standing so proud and tall, This time, we might get it right When you run, The way I feel when you run And all I see, Is a picture of you on the wall, Standing against it all, I know this time, We might get it right, back where we belong

Better Man 04:14
Well since we were together, You said I was naïve A better man for being better, that’s what you want me to see And now the times are changing, I’m scared of my two feet, A better man for being better, is that what you want me to see? You said without me baby, Well baby I’m incomplete Can I get away from you this time? My friends they gather round me, Can’t believe what they see, But part of me knows I’ll never leave I cover up my bruises, So no-one else can see A better man for being better, is that what you want me to see?

Hometown 04:22
I was searching, just to find someone, Someone to keep my safe at night, and through the day Guess I found you, from the middle of nowhere, Don’t let me down, you know I love you, Don’t let me down, the powers above you I really love my hometown, I really love the way we keep hanging around, I really love the way it makes me stay I was talking, to an old friend, He said he had so many troubles what could I say? So I told him, remember the good times, He said you’re a real good friend He said I know I will depend on you
