Pale Horse 04:18
Beauty and the beast is in the eye of the behold a pale horse then you die I don't wanna get to know ya, I just wanna throw ya up into the sky Don't wanna mess you up, but I can't keep my mouth shut all the time You know it chokes me up every time I look into your eyes Oceans in the sky explosions make me die to know you maybe thought of me Do ya think about the future, or does it run into ya, bruising all you see? Don't want to hold you up but someone's got to get you home tonight You know it chokes me up every time I look into your eyes Pale horse, remember what I said Pale horse, your tongue is always in my head My heart is yours until I die I can't come down, I can't calm down Baby you know I'm an explorer gonna open all the doors you never knew you had Do ya wanna be my owner? Someone else is gonna try to take you home Hiding from the Jekyll doctor, everyone's a devil all the time You know it chokes me up every time I look into your eyes Pale horse, remember what I said Pale horse, your tongue is always in my head My heart is yours until I die I can't come down, I can't calm down

Sunshine where did you go? Walked away with a piece of my soul These clouds make no sense to me Sunshine where did you go? You should be with the people you know These clowns make no sense to me These clowns make no sense to me Come out lets get out of here Come with me Happiness loves company Sunshine where did you go? Can't you help to soften the blow? These words make no sense to me Sunlight give me a sign that you'll be back another time What you no sense make to me What you no sense make to me Raincloud's drowning all of me Let me breathe Let me hope Let me believe the sky is clear When rainclouds come it's easy to forget the sun used to shine on everything you do When rainclouds come it's easy to regret the one thing you wish you'd done when you could Sunshine where did you go? Show me the sun

Heartbuzz 03:58
You are as you were But that was the best I've ever been This is your heartbuzz But these are not even my words You are as you were But that was the best I've ever been This is your heartbuzz But you should know Blood burns with dreams of you The pain of you leaving has sliced my soul in two My love for you has made me brave and true The pain of you leaving sliced my soul in two Blood burns with dreams of you But you should know You are as you were That was the best I've ever been This is your heartbuzz These are not even my words But you should know Consumed with dreams of you The sound of you breathing I'm addicted to My love for you has sliced my soul in two The sound of you breathing has made me addicted to Blood burns with dreams of you But you should know Blood burns with dreams of you The pain of you leaving has sliced my soul in two My love for you has made me brave and true The pain of you leaving sliced my soul in two Blood burns with dreams of you But you should know You are as you were But that was the best I've ever been This is your heartbuzz These are not even my words Consumed with dreams of you The sound of you breathing I'm addicted to My love for you has sliced my soul in two The sound of you breathing has made me addicted to Blood burns with dreams of you But you should know

Can you feel the force that keeps the earth round the sun? It's been pulling us together from day one When I'm with you I can feel the planets align And I know that soon our orbits will collide You are the light that's been shining on my life You are Venus in the night You're the brightest star that's shining in the sky Thought it feels like light years we are never apart Because distance makes no difference in our hearts Can you feel the magnetism pulling on us Even though the poles will flip and I'll mess up You are the light that's been shining on my life You are Venus in the night You're the brightest star that's shining in the sky In the sky Can you see the universe is telling us with these forces that we can't ignore that we are connected outwith space and time? Every here (let's get carried away) Every now Every there (let's get carried away) Every then Every where (let's get carried away) Every when You are the light that's been shining on my life You are Venus in the night You're the brightest star that's shining in the sky In the sky

More Fool Me 03:11
I know you don't want to see me And I know you're disappointed with life So you scream and you shout at the world Sometimes feels like you don't really hear me And so I keep talking and talking As though the noise I make is gonna change something Thinking about what I'll say when I see you I don't want to talk, I just want to be with you Please won't you fool me over and over again? Fool me, fool me and I'll play along with you I know you'll never want me and your heart won't move when you think of my smile won't you when you remember me sometime? Feels like you'll never surrender (feels like home) Although I would in a second (though I would) My heart breaks over and over again (my heart breaks) Always thinking about what I'll do when I see you I don't want to talk to you, just want to be with you How can you fool me all over again? Fool me, fool me and I'll play along with you Won't you fool me over and over again? And I'll play along with you

My eyes are oceans when I think about why we're watching drones on the tv like we've been lobotomised I don't wanna buy it but the pushers don't know the score I can't keep thinking if we give it a try we'll stop the bomb, stop the war, won't have to be paranoid If you swallow this you'll lose a bitter taste for sure Love is a drug and you know you know we need it more than air You know we want it so bad and we're gonna get it don't be scared If we live to love a little more we can know the score and stop the war Fear's a disease and you know that love is the cure If we're all on it gonna fight the disease And we gotta stick together gotta take to the streets If you wanna revolution be the change you wanna see Love is a drug and you know you know you need it more than air You know we want it so bad and we're gonna get it don't be scared If we live to love a little more we can know the score and stop the war Fear's a disease and you know that love is the cure Love is a drug and you know you know you need it more than air You know we want it so bad and we're gonna get it don't be scared If we live to love a little more we can know the score and stop the war Fear's a disease and you know that love is the cure

I got over you It wasn't easy but I needed to Couldn't have spent my whole life waiting for you to stop being a fool I was thinking back All the things I did to make you sad Who would have thought I could wreck your head so bad? I must have been mad Pretty thing you know we always argue Tell me what you want? Tell me what you want? Pretty soon I'll never see you I wanna stop my heart I wanna stop my heart I wanna stop my heart I wanna stop my heart cos every time it beats it feels like it's breaking Wanna stop my heart? Wanna stop my heart? When I think of you, all I see is what we didn't do Heaven was always near when I was with you, in you, shooting at stars Shooting at stars Pretty thing our time is almost over Tell me what you want? Tell me what you want? Pretty soon I'll never see you I wanna stop my heart I wanna stop my heart I wanna stop my heart I wanna stop my heart cos every time it beats it feels like it's breaking Wanna stop my heart? Wanna stop my heart?

Yoyo 02:33
Hanging from your finger you are pulling on my string Doing all the tricks I do for you Even when I'm sleeping you have got a hold of me In my dreams I'm always winding up with you When I get tied up in knots I haven't got a clue I don't know what to say or what to do Half the time I blow my mind with the things I say and do I only seem to blow it because it's you I am up and down I am spinning round cos I'm a yoyo and there's nothing I can do You can make me feel like I am not a spinning wheel I'm not a yoyo when I'm coming back to you When you leave me hanging I have never felt so down So hard to pick myself up off the ground But when we are talking find myself among the clouds You elevate me just by being around Would you get entwined with me I haven't got a clue I don't know what you'd say or what you'd do I'm inclined to blow your mind with the things I say and do I hope that I can work things out with you I am up and down I am spinning round cos I'm a yoyo and there's nothing I can do You can make me feel like I am not a spinning wheel I'm not a yoyo when I'm coming back to you You spin me up when I am down I'm never down when you're around

Bridget 03:15
Walking through the darkness trying to find my path Need a light to guide it, light to mark it out I've been guiding myself on the brightest star But it's long since nova-ed and it fizzled out Need a change in me Need a spark in me Need a fire in me Bridget you brought the sun Its golden rays wash over me Illuminate me Bridget you brought the sun You brought out the song in me Forged change in me Lit a spark in me Fuelled the fire in me Lit a fire in me and now I feel alive Healed my heart and gave me back my faith in life Bridget you brought the sun Its golden rays wash over me Illuminate me Bridget you brought the sun You brought out the song in me Forged change in me Lit a spark in me Fuelled the fire in me I don't wanna let that go

Lay 06:00
I'll lay my kisses on your eyes So lay your arms around my bones I'll lay my kiss upon your smile So make my smile your very own I'll lay my heart upon your lap So lay your complication bare I'll leave my simple head intact Except to store your secrets there I'll lay my kisses on your eyes So lay your arms around my bones I'll lay my kiss upon your smile So make my smile your very own I'll carry you beyond the noise So lay upon my trembling arms I'll lay my dreams beside your sleep So make my dreams escape from harm I'll lay my kisses on your eyes So lay your arms around my bones I'll lay my kiss upon your smile So make my smile your very own
