16 Questions 02:23
I just keep listening to your old lies, And you are one, Sixteen questions in your whole life, And you are gone. A tenement smashed in a six car crash Common places are for one And you are one Super fast, the agent’s cast And a misplaced thereupon And you are one Creation, an analogue station, an overgrown section in the fast food nation, Attrition, fruition, a suicide mission, a new misunderstanding and the last traditional bomb. I just keep listening to your old lies, And you are one, Sixteen questions in your whole life, And you are gone. I said coz you are gone.

Light Of One 01:54
A day in the sunshine beats a day in the rain And day after day it’s always the same A crack in the pavement a crack in the head I’ll try to ignore the words that I said It seems like nothing here is ever real I tried my best to hide and to conceal Whenever it’s day or whenever it’s light Every movements peripheral sight And every thought is a word on a page And every day’s an incentive to change We’re light of one, nobody run.

Not Working 02:08
Try to start a broken engine Torn apart by the words they’re singing I won’t fall away I’ll make it through the worst today We won’t fall away we’ll rise above the words they say We should be working for a life Not just striving to survive Can’t just carry on if nothing’s changing We should be working for a life It’s not been working for a while
4.
Breaking Out 02:17
I was searching for a moment But the moment passed me by I think somebody might have stole it But don’t ask me why I’m breaking out this time I think it’s time to clear the conscience Give me a reason to confide Yesterday they cut me open But there’s nothing inside.
5.
I’m sitting alone in the cold it’s just like talking to you sometimes It’s happening now and it’s older with a ballad of useful chimes What are we looking for, an hour less, a degree more Find the time, find a way, find a lie We’ll pretend we’re not bored Feeling lonely Find the time, find a way, find a lie We’ll pretend we’re not bored You are. I said you’re holding out on me It’s too far for you to finally agree Don’t feel as if you have to change your mind We’ll try. We’re gonna leave the past behind Don’t waste your time, stop asking why Find a way, let it go, don’t think about tomorrow Walking blindly Find the time, find a way, let it go Don’t think about tomorrow Skyline drifting through the trees Wide lines, they’re only bold enough to see Let’s go and try to find the fool We’ll try forever breaking all the rules I’m sitting alone in the cold it’s just like talking to you sometimes It’s happening now and it’s older with a ballad of useful chimes You are. I said you’re holding out on me It’s too far for you to finally agree Don’t feel as if you have to change your mind We’ll try. We’re gonna leave the past behind
6.
Its 6 o’ clock in the morning Just the time for a quick stop runaway Not gonna listen to the warning I’m gonna jump to the first train stowed away See you another day I gotta getaway I got a big city feeling I’m gonna fly in the Christmas holiday Nothing else is appealing Gonna stick to the big lights far away Not gonna walk away See you another day Don’t need your lipstick rock and roll You’ll get a fistful of punk and soul from me Yeah take it from me A shot of whiskey, a pack of smokes Dolly mixtures and dirty jokes for me Yeah take it from me Riding along with a punk rock sorta song and I’ll always believe you When no-one believes you The wind in your eyes and a World where no-one lies and I’ll always believe you When no-one believes you They’re setting us up to fall Riding along with a punk rock sorta song and I’ll always believe you When no-one believes you The wind in your eyes and a World where no-one lies and I’ll always believe you When no-one believes you

Lighthouse 02:20
Against all of the odds we succeed Distance ain’t the barrier that it may seem Don’t wanna be a phonecall away The lighthouse on the rocks warns off any danger I think some dangers are worth fighting for Triumph is the only option It’s our way or no way
8.
Pushing buttons, self destruction What I said then, don’t mean much now I’ve travelled ten thousand miles to be here today I’ve tried my best to change but it didn’t matter anyway I’m sorry that I turned away, I know I killed the moment Chasing shadows, feigning sorrow Break these chains and slings and arrows
9.
Freak 00:40
You know that seeing, it is believing We're in the middle of nonstop space bin With interfering and superseding Were on the planet of a constant spacing Don’t freak me out don’t freak me out.
10.
If you wanna leave when the ghost starts sniffing around You tired yet, your minds been running Semolina trees and the cats are jumping around Cos I’m trying to tell you something Greg is on it's knees and I can’t get into the cloud You won’t get there quicker running If you wanna leave when the ghost starts sniffing around Stop running, stop running Only you can see the fire Time it seems to run away, today was over yesterday

So Long 01:33
She’s keeping hold of the kid so that it’s cheaper, no? She’s taking over the disco, man has she said so. And it’s so long still it’s oh so long, Yeah it’s so long still it’s oh so long, We’re coming over the ocean with our seat belts on It’s just another commotion put the TV on And it’s so long yeah it’s oh so long, And when it goes wrong let’s just keep on holding on to one another and With nobody’s axe to grind a smile can overcome the chase No cutting your nose off to spite your face If this is the quiet time then a different silence will win the race So don’t believe the lie, Don’t believe the lie There’s so many ways to die, So don’t believe the lie, Don’t believe the lie There’s so many ways to die, I don’t wanna die. You just gotta try.
12.
Outside 02:22
If you’re asked to wait for all eternity And if you’re asked to speak for the one who’s left behind I’ve been here all this time I just wanna go outside And I’ll be here all this time I just wanna go outside If you’re asked to wait for all eternity And if you’re asked to speak for the one who’s left behind I’ve been here all this time I just wanna go outside And I’ll be here all this time I just wanna go outside If you wanna go outside I’ve been here all this time I just wanna go outside Four walls are built of skull, bone, tissue, sinew and blood I don’t wanna go outside today, don’t think I even could These bricks have stopped me running, these bricks have got me scared When I’ve finally started something, it’s your turn to disappear And I’ll be here all this time I just wanna go outside If you wanna go outside Do you wanna go outside?
13.
Tonight I’ll lay it on the line I’ll let out every word that I have kept inside To waste another second will not I’m spending every waking moment here with you Don’t wanna fall asleep tonight And I’m sorry I don’t tell you Sometimes I don’t know just what I should do I’ve been using silence as a disguise But from now until the dawn I’m staring through those eyes.
14.
I Will Not 03:04
Daybreak, what’s the difference now And I’ll take nothing over this and I’ll Waiting for forever Hanging on a tightrope of a destiny I’ve learned never to say never But I’m buried under weight of responsibility I will not walk away tonight.
