Lyrics: Carousel

Late night
Step on the carousel
Spend all night
Spinning round and round
Hold tight
Now you don't let go
Until day light
Pours through your window
(you, you)

Sometimes
We talk on the telephone
And it's running dry
The conversation slows
Red lights
And that's not set in stone
Well I'm up all night
Until you get home I long for the smell of your hair, the smell of your hair

And all this time
In a hiding place, in a hiding place
All our lives with a melody (oh)
All this time
Yea we might as well we might as well
Close our eyes
Sing a melody (oh)
(you, you)

Outside
Pours down with rain again
People passing by
Sometimes stop and stare
And our worried eye
With now here nor there
Well I'm stuck in time
Until you are near I long for the smell of your hair, the smell of your hair

And all this time
In a hiding place, in a hiding place
All our lives sing a melody (oh)
All this time
Yea we might as well we might as well
Close our eyes
Sing a melody (oh)

(oh, oh, oh, oh)

And all this time
In a hiding place, in a hiding place
All our lives sing a melody (oh)
All this time
Yea we might as well we might as well
Close our eyes
Sing a melody (oh)

Lyrics: Headlights (Old Version 1)

Late like the evening sun, I
Sink to the ground
I'll keep my promises, I
Won't let you down

Cos like a rabbit in your headlights
I am a beckon to your call
Like the early morning headlines
I am all too predictable
Yea I'm all too predictable (wa ha oh)

Heavy like an iron lung, You
Quietly bound
I'll keep my promises, Like
A thorn in your crown

Cos like a rabbit in your headlights
I am a beckon to your call
Just say your boss is hell high
Cos I'm all too predictable
Yea I'm all too predictable (wa ha oh)

(oh, oh, oh, oh)

True like the first born
Weigh pound for pound
I'll keep my promises, I
I won't let you down

Lyrics: On Your Shoulders

A thousand miles across a barren land you find yourself an hourglass

a shade across your world and on your shoulders

She wanna come, she wanna see you right

She's wants to wet your appetite

She's ready to unfurl and then its over

Oh and she's feeling what you're feeling

Oh and seeing is believing

and now you're willing to unlearn your everything

So come on over

won't you turn the tide in me

when it's over are you gonna come and reel me in?

The sun gone sit up in its sickened sky

you're wondering how you're wondering why

you came into my world to hold my hand

you wanna run you wanna come undone

you're burning in the midday sun

you came into my world to satisfy

and you're feeling what I'm feeling

oh and seeing is believing

and now you're willing to unlearn your everything

So come on over

won't you turn the tide in me

when it's over are you gonna come and reel me in?

Yeah you won't see me write your name across my heart

So come over

won't you turn the tide in me

A thousand miles across a barren land you find yourself an hourglass

a shade across your world and on your shoulders

Lyrics: Youth

Sit and wish the world would settle down

Sit and hope the silence in your heart would drown

writing lists of all the things unsaid

and wasting days by spending them in bed

with your youth and your time

and your bruises and bites

with your airs and your graces

Oh c'mon kid, you'll let it all go to waste

So find the cure that's feeding your design

the antidote that keeps your poison out of mind

cos' sticks and stones they never broke your bones

they lit the burning fire in your soul

with your youth and your time

and your bruises and bites

with your airs and your graces

Oh c'mon kid, you'll let it all go to waste

Cut your heart in two

half for me and half for you

pull your inside out

take yourself the long way around

Cos' you are so untrue

Lyrics: Your Majesty

Put your money down, put your money down

you've never looked like one to get the run around

I'm a safe bet, I'm a cold sweat, I'm the voice that whispers in your nightmares

I know you'd like to settle down now,

but you know I like to make a scene yeah,

Come let your pretty eyes ride out of the water

I've got a thousand smiles your majesty

I go for miles and miles and at every altar

Cos' I've got it all locked down your majesty

I'm gonna come clean I wanna be obscene

not one to come on around and meet the family

it's time to wake up, slap on your make up

I wanna see the whites of your eyes

Cos' I know you'd like to settle down now,

but you know I like to make a scene yeah,

Come let your pretty eyes ride out of the water

I've got a thousand smiles your majesty

I go for miles and miles and at every altar

Cos' I've got it all locked down your majesty

Put your money down, put it outta' town

you never looked like one to get the runaround

well I'm a safe bet, I'm a cold sweat, I'm the voice that whispers in your nightmares

Oh you know I'd to stick around, yeah you coulda' seen me come undone

Oh, you and me, we coulda' been amazing

Lyrics: Under The Stars

You know you look so tired
You're gonna stay up late tonight
Under the stars
Well I'll put you in pride of place
I'm gonna set my sight
I'm gonna set your soul alight
Under the stars
Under the stars

So the let the street lights shine the way
To the breaking of the day
In the morning you decay a little
We let a lifetime come undone
Stair straight into the sun
Like the barrel of a gun
Under the stars
Under the stars

Been waiting my whole life
For you to come and waste a while
Out in the dark

In the emptiness of time and space
Been going out my mind
I've got to bring you back to life
You and your heart
You and your heavy heart

So the let the street lights shine the way
To the breaking of the day
In the morning you decay a little
We let a lifetime come undone
Stair straight into the sun
Like the barrel of a gun
Under the stars
Under the stars

You know you look so tired
You're gonna stay up late tonight
Under the stars
Under the stars
Under the stars
Under the stars

So the let the street lights shine the way

to the breaking of the day

for tonight all of the saints are sinners

and I can feel we're coming up

like our hearts are filling up

like its rushing through our blood

under the stars

Lyrics: Speechless

Twenty seconds on the backlog, overtime

just twenty seconds til we're swept by the tide

we're treading water in the dead of night

and we're speechless, just speechless

Cos' you've got me right where you want me

as a tsunami tide tolls over the landscape that we built a home in

inside of our minds

Staring skywards waiting for a sign

up to our necks in it til the day brings us light

and our whole lives are flashing before our eyes

and we're speechless

Cos' you've got me right where you want me

as a tsunami tide tolls over the landscape that we built a home in

inside of our minds

So we fall and we break

and we make the same mistakes

like we always, always do

and we crawl, intertwined

forced apart from the inside

like we always, always knew

and I'm speechless

Twenty seconds on the backlog, overtime

just twenty seconds til' you're no longer mine.

Lyrics: Monday Morning

Hello Monday Morning, try and talk your way out of this one

for today's grand performance try and make the most of the love thats left

As you board the train or park the car

Fly me to where you are

and I'll sleep in on your shoulder

trying to forget the everything that weighs you down

Tongue-tied, staring at the ceiling all night

trying to believe that sometime, one day, maybe we might just come around

and stop running so fast

Hello Monday's calling, try and talk your way out of this one

It's just motorways of empty cars, full speed stop and starts

But I'm sleeping on your shoulder

trying to forget the everything that weighs you down

Tongue-tied, staring at the ceiling all night

trying to believe that sometime, one day, maybe we might just come around

and stop running so fast

Lyrics: Marble Attic

A step into the unknown

with the nightmares creeping in

and at the bottom of the ocean

you keep looking back, take a look at yourself

You're becoming someone else

Oh yeah, I can feel again

Like my life has a template

as I choke on an overdose

it's like a stab in the back on a clean bill of health

You're running with your eyes closed

yeah with the seventh deadly sin

it's like living in slow motion

you keep looking back, take a look at yourself

You're becoming someone else

Oh yeah, I can feel again

Like my life has a template

as I choke on an overdose

it's like a stab in the back on a clean bill of health

You're becoming someone else

Lyrics: In The Name

I couldn't find my home

so I burnt all my clothes

I burnt everything I own

but I can't shake this cold

Like a thief in the night yeah I lost my mind that day

and as hard as I try yeah it just won't go my way

like the hangover guilt that you just can't wash away

washed upon shore, served on a plate

You know I won't be afraid

Gonna wash my hands before those pearly gates

and then I'll be on my way

in the name of the good lord Jesus I'll be saved

So now I walk these streets alone

speaking a lowly monotone

yeah in a stolen hotel robe

from the life, from the life I used to own

Like a rat in a trap I get caught in the act some days

and as hard as I try yeah I just can find an escape

flying high as a kite I get pulled through the atmosphere

washed upon shore, served on a plate

You know I won't be afraid

Gonna wash my hands before those pearly gates

and then I'll be on my way

in the name of the good lord Jesus I'll be saved

by the word, in the eyes, in the name, in the life, for my faith, for my pride

for my truths and my lies, for my pain, for my sins,

for just tryina' find somewhere to begin

by the word, in the eyes, in the name of the good lord Jesus I'll be saved.

Lyrics: A&E

Sixty seconds time, weightless weightless
You just try to settle it
As he looks into your eyes, he says, if says if
If you just only know, only know

Oh

This is not an accident
This is an emergency
This is not an accident
This is an emergency
Oh this is not an accident
No, this is
Just how you planned it

So she looks into your eyes
And screams say something, Say that your heart beats for me
Are we breathing
Are we breathing

Ohh

This is not an accident
This is an emergency
This is not an accident
This is an emergency
Oh this is not an accident
No, this is
Just how you planned it

You'll remember me in the morning
You'll remember me tonight
And say this is not an accident
No this is
Just how you planned it

You've got blood on your dirty hands
You've got mud on your dirty face
You either live up to my demands
Or take your secrets to your grave, just go
Oh this is not an accident
No, this is
Just how you planned it
