We Are You

We are You
Yet this my comfort, when your words are done
When your words are gone
Don’t you realise, that we are you
What you said I feel it too
Don’t you realise, it’s all one pain
When you hurt I feel the same
Because we are you
Don’t you realise, that we are you
What you are, I share that too
Don’t you realise, it’s all one game
All that changes is the name
Because we are you
Don’t it make your heart break
Reeling from the earthquake
Rolling with the thunder
When you’re going under
Don’t it make you wonder what it’s for?
Don’t you realise that we are you
What you need I need it too
Don’t you realise we feel no shame
In the end we’re all the same

Great Expectations
Hold on, hold on
Because the brakes will only hold you back so long
Just wait, wait
For the state that you’ve been to ebb away
And forget that you had to compensate
But what of? And is it really enough?
In a way, I’ve been waiting for you
In a way, I’ve denied
I’ve got great expectations for you
I will find
Stop me if I’m trying too hard to make it right
Stop me if you think I’m wrong
If I can’t save me then you’re right
Oh yeah, you’re probably right
Hold on, hold on
Because mistakes will only iron out so long
Just wait, wait, for the fate that you dealt to come your way
And forget that you always complicate
But what of? And is this really enough?
Great expectations for you

Fake News
Two million hits against the wall, do you believe the spoof?
The loaded language seems to fit, do you prefer post truth?
All day long, all day through
Compelled and drawn right into it, maybe clickbait suits you
The dust cloud aint the half of it, did you give it value?
All night long, all night through
Why are you trying to make me believe it’s true?
Your fake news
Too much divisive rhetoric, the narrative confused
You post the slur and it will stick, the bias viral grew
All day long all night through
Why are you trying to make me believe it’s true?
Your fake news
Why are you trying to make me believe there’s proof?
Your fake news
And if you don’t believe, cos it’s not broadsheet
Do you really need?
Do you really want, did you ever really want neutrality?

Man All At Sea

Man all at Sea
Man all at sea, looking at me, forever unseen, always waiting
You and me, have to concede, it never can be, always waiting
In the way I see, it’s me and you
Different but not wrong
Just singing different songs
I can feel there will be harmony out there
Man all at sea, indefinitely, no comfort to me, contemplating
Happens to be, the tides against me, folorn apathy, always waiting
Pouring it over and over, forever not onwards
Not in the moment, the moment is where I must be
Wrestle control from the waves that keep pushing on backwards
I can feel I’ll find my harmony out there
Man all at sea, look at me
Choosing to be, instigating
You and me, we’re good history
Always with me, no more waiting
Faraway I’ve been, but you and me
Converted but not gone
Just writing our new songs
I can hear the sound of harmony out there

Burning On
She said, we were always on the move
But we said I do
Instead, we were lost some ago
When we said I do
She said, you were always trying to prove
Still we said I do
Unread, but it was penned some time ago
Then we said I do
I’ll always come back
This long beaten track
Our love keeps burning on
Keeps burning on
She said it was all so down to you
Then we said I do
I said, the line was crossed some time ago
Then we said I do

Someone To Blame
Lately, everything’s moving at light speed
The curtains are torn and the sighs bleed
Nothing is coming around
Tailspin, in your political dustbin
Can’t tell the haves from the has beens
Nothing is coming around
So I need, someone to blame, no I don’t
Someone to blame
Maybe, pathing the way to the great leap
The fault lines appear and the knife’s deep
Nothing is coming around
Cave in, to your delusional dross spin
Can’t tell the leaves from the stay ins
Nothing is coming around
So you choose to climb into bed with those who cut you the leash
But when ten is shut take a look
They will find you, beside you
The place you cant hide, however you slide, is from you

Always, Sometimes
I’m in and out of love, running out of time, always, sometimes
I’m in and out of love, in a slow decline, always, sometimes
I’m in and out of love, I thought it was time, always, sometimes
I’m in and out of love, too tired to climb, always, sometimes
All that you are to me, is all that I have
All that you meant to me, you will always be my eternity
I’m in and out of love, wasting my time, always, sometimes
I’m in and out of love, losing’s a crime
Now that I know that you’re mine
I promise you this, I promise I’ll stay, always, sometimes
I promise you this, I promise you love
Now that I know that you say you will always be mine
Always, sometimes

Drowning In You
I guess I could have seen this from the start
If I’d listened to the things that I’d mistaken for my heart
A little objectivity on you, wouldn’t make me feel the way I feel and do the things I do
But the main thing is I’m waiting for you and I’m aching from the hating it too
Everyone I trust says that I’m wrong
That I’m better off without but hey, I chose to sing this song
They say that it gets better with each day
But they weren’t the ones who spent the hours on countless motorways
But the main thing is I’m waiting for you and I’m aching from the hating it too
I want to know how I can see straight through, then I wouldn’t be so drowning
You say it’s always me that starts the fight
When you say go I’d stay all day, I’d stay all night
One day well we’ll be lost and out of sight
But I don’t want to say goodbye and prove you right

The Lonely Path
Picture Yourself, picture yourself with a lonely path before you,
No-one behind and none before you,
Are you lost? Are you helpless? Are you free?
Picture Yourself, picture yourself as a king enrobed in meaning,
For the lost and the weary, light a fire on your island in the void.
Meaning's verse, put your song in me
Let your anthem roar to eternity (or anywhere)
Picture yourself, picture yourself a Mockingbird in song,
Be the eyes of existence, seek the joy in the nothing you have found
So reason deserts me, and returns a fleeting leaf on the breeze,
Here the hopes you hold dearly are the strength you need to fight the disease.
Meaning's verse, put your song in me
Let your anthem roar to eternity
Here you are, here you are
Picture yourself witha lonely path, and none before you

Afterthought

Afterthought
The gap and the pause, between words and the thoughts
Are the truth and the lies
That reside in my eyes
And I’m caught
More than ever before
The way that its gone it means nothing to anyone
Drain on your battery
Why should that matter to me?
More than ever before
That’s just the proof that I hold on to yesterday
Can’t make the hold or grip
So I lose everything
Why can’t you talk like never before?
I don’t want to feel unsure
Or like I’m an afterthought

Black Dog
When the clouds lift you’ll know, that the weight that you felt wasn’t real
It was weight self-imposed. Then you’ll know, I hope that you’ll know
And the shackles you felt and the chains round your head will dissolve, your insanity melt
Then you’ll know, I hope that you’ll know
The weight of the world it was there it was there, it was sat on your shoulders
I was taking you home, you wanted to go but you just didn’t know
And the way that that you just stood and stared when I wanted to hold you
I was taking you home
You wanted to go, you just didn’t know
When the clouds drift you’ll know
That the life you had lost isn’t lost, you’ve got somewhere to go
Then you’ll know, I hope that you’ll know
And the madness you felt, and the cage that was built round your head you can let it all melt
Then you’ll know, I hope that you’ll know
The weight of the world, the despair, it was sat on your shoulders
I was taking you home, you wanted to go but you just didn’t know
And you didn’t want anyone there when we wanted to hold you
We were taking you home, you wanted to go, you just didn’t know
I know you feel sad and low and you can’t see the way out
Look here you’re not on your own, never doubt, never doubt
The black dog’s stopped running now
