Man The Roads

Man the roads, I can't take it any longer
This sense of fate is only getting stronger
Why would I believe a priest, who preaches that he serves the only faith?
Why would I ever trust a man, who treats his kind like animals in a cage?
Man the roads, we can’t stand it any longer
Make them feel we won’t have it any more
One day you’ll have seen the cost that comes with every penny that you take
Wondering if what is going on will somehow ‘clean up’ your mistake
As history repeats itself
I turn and wait for something else
As misery will lead us on
Let thieves and beggars prove me wrong
Stand your ground things are moving fast again
Our desperation's getting crystal clear
Signals in the ether tell disturbing tales of troubles in the east
Where borders don't mean anything to Mother's children,
waiting to be freed
Raise your flags we wont take another beating
These hollow lines aren't even worth repeating
From smoking ashes of despair this generation turns a crying eye
Now tell me what's the meaning of a broken promise wrapped up in a lie?
As history repeats itself
I turn and wait for something else
As misery will lead us on
Let thieves and beggars prove me wrong
Man the roads, I can't take it any longer

It's Time

Worn and stained,
Can’t seem to get you off of my head,
Your colors faded,
(did) we ever stand a chance?
Go away,
There’s no room for you here anymore,
Not today,
In the morning you will go.
You and I both know
You and I both know
You and I both know that it’s time.
I close my eyes,
Cause I can’t stand to see your face,
As I will try,
To throw you out the door.
Don’t be mad,
Only hate me if you must,
But if you’ll let me,
I’ll miss you when you’re gone.
You and I both know
You and I both know
You and I both know that it’s time.
This ain’t over,
You’re not ready to part,
This ain’t over yet.
We are over,
Close the lid on your way out,
And I’ll stand back.
This ain’t over,
You’re not ready to part,
This ain’t over
Worn and stained,
I just can't seem to get you off of my head
Your colors faded
(did) we ever stand a chance?

I can't stand this weather
My tears on your letters
Just miles, it doesn't matter
We both agreed to be brave about it
And as time grows bolder
My tears on your shoulder
As I stay, you grow older
I never agreed to be brave about it
Oh, I miss you more than you should know
Some search
for such presents
It might never happen
Oh I could barely look, I never expected you to close the book on
two kids who found comfort
never came to those three words
no need to spill your heart for
now is the time to be brave about it
Oh I miss you more than you should know,
Oh, I shoul'dve never let you go,
Oh I miss you more than you should know,
Oh I should've never let you go,
Oh, I promised not to feel this way but love I miss you more than you should know.

Hit And Run

Pick up the stone before you run and hide
Never leave me standing on the side
Oh, what’d you expect from a face like mine,
Staring at me with those big blue eyes
Where there’s fire, the smoke runs free,
Strong desire makes a strong believe.
You said: baby, I’ll make you see
I said: I’ll make it easy, won’t you come with me
Hit and run
Baby let’s call it a hit and run
(2x)
Cross my fingers, honey I’m no good
Trouble finds me leaning on to you,
Oh, what’d you expect from a girl this blue,
Staring at me like you know you do.
Hit and run
Baby let’s call it a hit and run
(2x)
Hit and run (3x)
Mmm, hit and run.

Holes In My Pocket
03:38

I close my eyes as i repeat
There aint nothing that I own
And nothing that I need
Oh it feels like ive been freed
I got nothing
Just the holes in my pocket
And a cigarette between my teeth
And, as the dust will settle down
The earth will be my throne
And the burning skies my crown
No I won’t end up getting old
I don’t bother
I share my last few beers
With a tramp on the side of the road
But I won’t live to see
The end of what we know
That’s why I stick with me
Aah, the end of what we know
Yep I am ready to be gone
But the longer I’ll stay
The more people I will drag along
Don’t get me wrong
I’m burned and I’m broke
But I don’t mind
I’m at the bottom
But face down in the dirt
god knows what I might find
But I won’t live to see
The end of what we know
That’s why I stick with me
Aah, the end of what we know
But I won’t live to see
The end of what we know
That’s why I stick with me
Aah, the end of what we know

Even though it's unexplainable
to you it will all make sense when you lay beside me (tonight)
So before you turn away my love,
look me in the eye, and promise you will wait.
Dreaming of you chanting in the water,
as the sun kisses your skin, you try to suckl me in.
All the words we spoke, they rest beside you,
as you take your wonders in.
Is there any truth to all the lies
Can we sit beside each others lives, without breaking what is bound to fall behind.
Can I miss you when you're never gone,
When I dream of where I don't belong, being homesick for a place that isn't there.
And your biggest fear should be regret,
Wishing for something you could've had,
You could change the world, but you let go instead.

Sleep In

Sleep in, sleep in,
Sleep in this mighty hands while you can
Walk upon, walk upon,
Walk upon these mighty sands while you can.
‘Cause sooner or later all goes wrong.
But it’s you who guides the way for me
Yes it’s you who guides the way for me
Learn from, learn from,
Learn from the ones who gave you life while you can.
Cause sooner or later all goes wrong
But it’s you who guides the way for me
Yes it’s you who guides the way for me

Miles From Home

Sun on my skin,
Waiting for someone to pull me in
You blow your kisses gently
I say your name,
You say you cannot see me looking this way
You’ll never know I loved you more than I could put in words (mm)
Kicking the can,
Holding my breath or you’ll know where I am
I never felt this free before
You were here
All the others seemed like places to fear
How did you know I’d love you more than I would ever know (aa)
Sun on my skin
I feel the expectations filling the air
No time for conversation
Let me begin,
Traces of sand behind us
Taking you in, I hope they’ll never find us floating underneath the surface (aa)
Through the yellow diamond world we’ll wander
with everything we have, and everything we want
And every song we sang would be our favourite
Cause we’re miles from home
Through the yellow diamond world we’ll wander
with everything we have, and everything we want
And every song we sang would be our favourite
Cause we’re miles from home

Drank It All
02:29
|
|

Just fell out the right side of my bed
My hands are shaking and my mouth is dry
It's been a long long time since i had what i had
last night and i feel more dead than alive
The tray is full with the ashes of the night
On the kitchen table the bottles stand tall
My head is exploding but it’s quite alright
It’s just to remind me that we drank it all
Just to remind us that we drank it all (2x)
Wooden walls will keep our feet from wandering off,
In my eyes you’ll meet a strange but welcome thought,
I think it’s time to leave,
'cause we drank it all
The sting of daylight is lashing my eyes
and the morning cold is biting us all
But the fire’s burning and the coffee’s warm
The higher you fly, the deeper you fall
Just to remind us that we drank it all (2x)
Wooden walls will keep our feet from wandering off,
In my eyes you’ll meet a strange but welcome thought,
I think it’s time to leave
'cause we drank it all
(We drank it all)
I should have stopped hours before
Strange how i always keep on wanting more
Dehydration is right at the door
Oh
I should have stopped hours before
Strange how i always keep on wanting more
Tomorrow you'll find me face down on the floor

Mine To Keep
04:38

These sad words, I’m sinking deep
How I wish they were mine to keep
And all these dreams seemed so true
I never thought that I’d be losing you
Hearts will beat, and blood will flow
And these four walls may never know
And all these dreams seemed so true
I never thought that I’d be losing you
Some think they’re better off alone
Some find them selves so far from home
Some look for answers when they are in pain
We look the other way
Rain will fall and seeds will grow
Things that were are all we know
While we float above the earth
I wonder what my love is worth
Without you, so lay with me,
How I wish you were mine to keep,
And all my dreams seemed so true,
I never thought that I’d be losing you.
Some think they’re better off alone
Some find them selves so far from home
Some look for answers when they are in pain
We look the other way
These sad words have cut me deep,
But wounds will heal, I’ll learn to sleep.

Without Me

Grow, lift up your hands and we will fall,
but we’ll be together
Take, take all the time you need
Be brave, you’ll be oke without me
Silence, guide us, let me feel his hands on my lips.
Breathe, as you look up to find it’s real,
Try not to panic,
Close, too close to feel relief,
Be still, you’ll hear them singing
Silence, bind us by the things I want, but cannot give
Silence, blind us, let me drown inside the love that is

Out Of The Grey
03:12

Lately I can't find the truth
Is it true what they say about you?
That you can't find the friend that you need
That the world slips from under your feet
Boy, is it true what they say
Are your dreams drifting further away?
Is your heart growing cold as a stone?
Are you tired of drinking alone?
Oh, now that I know what it's like
It doesn't matter
Oh now that I know what it's like
It doesn't matter to me
Now that our troubles align
Let me light up your darkness with mine
Let my hands pull you out of the grey
Let my breath blow your worries away
Oh, now that I know what it's like
It doesn't matter
Oh now that I know what it's like
It doesn't matter to me
Oh, while everybody’s taking care of themselves,
I can say that loneliness comes for me too,
Find your own truth, in somebody new.
Lately I can't find the truth
Is it true what they say about you?
Let my hands pull you out of the grey
Let my breath blow your worries away
