I can't be the one I say to myself I need to carry on Love is lonely But when you're sure and you're hoping for more But you can't say but you can't say Or you won't say or you won't say Cos you see the world like I do like i ido Is it meant to align the stars? And the future unfurls in my head late at night Should the world always fall apart? I savour the time of day when we're together The thunder is pushed away is it now or never? But i'm not sure I can take anymore Heartbreak and it's painful cos I don't know cos I don't know Cos you see the world like I do like i ido Is it meant to align the stars? And the future unfurls in my head late at night Should the world always fall apart I'm a cat with one more life And it's hurting like the sharpest knife No more doubting myself Cos you see the world like I do like i ido Is it meant to align the stars? And the future unfurls in my head late at night Should the world always fall apart? Cos you see the world like I do like i ido Is it meant to align the stars? And the future unfurls in my head late at night Should the world always fall apart?

Sweetheart 03:26
My sweetheart i'll meet you one day In the glory of the allied cheers In my uniform medals gleaming Victory's coming have no fear Cos you are the only one i'm thinking of My forces sweetheart i'm in love Fire my rifle now with pride goodbye Cos you are the only one that understands What it takes to be a man Everybody thinks i'm strange deranged Got your picture hanging on my wall now Say a prayer to you every night Sit and dream in my own little world now Everything will be alright Cos you are the only one i'm thinking of My forces sweetheart i'm in love Fire my rifle now with pride goodbye Cos you are the only one that understands What it takes to be a man Everybody thinks i'm strange deranged And all I do is think of you is think of you And all I do is think of you is think of you And all I do is think of you is think of you And all I do is think of you is think of you Cos you are the only one i'm thinking of My forces sweetheart i'm in love Fire my rifle now with pride goodbye Cos you are the only one that understands What it takes to be a man Everybody thinks i'm strange deranged

Clachaig man 02:57
Clachaig man is here to stay In the peat and in the clay Speaks with his neolithic heart And with the past we do depart Tools of flint and obsidian While i'm lost in oblivion Clachaig man looks to the sun Now it burns and blinds my eyes Clachaig man is long and gone Through my soul it magnefies Stretch my gaze across the sea From the forest's history I went searching for the past oh oh And I thought about my future oh oh Through the ages we did last oh oh But now we're heading for the end Ah ah ah I went searching for the past oh oh And I thought about my future oh oh Through the ages we did last oh oh But now we're heading for the end In the here and now In the here and now In the here and now In the here and now In the here and now In the here and now In the here and now In the here and now

I'm tellin' tales i'm swearin' and shoutin' But the stories are true you don't like the art Another post fails you don't understand it Does not compute in your robot brain Please let her go please let me go Where we should be where we should be And freedom of speech aint something you teach Is it lonely with your money? Sittin' in jail contemplatin' Things that we cannot see through the shield Another corrupts another is waiting For all the fuck-ups that you are playing Please let her go please let me go Where we should be where we should be And freedom of speech aint something you teach Is it lonely with your money? Zeros and ones you aint that much fun Your fight has been won who you fightin? Zeros and ones the end has begun You're not held responsible are you even real? Please let her go please let me go Where we should be where we should be And freedom of speech aint something you teach Is it lonely with your money? We gotta go home We can't be alone forever We gotta go home We can't be alone Stay together

Into the fire and out of the sea Got no shows to go to and nowhere to be Into the fire and out of the sea Just you and me Into the fire and out of the sea I hope it's all a distant memory Into the fire and out of the sea Hard to believe The world is changing fast and ending now for some Into the fire and out of the sea Taking advantage of technology Into the fire and out of the sea Is this reality? I worry about my mum and dad I think of everything we have Into the fire out of the sea A psalm for the future written by me I hope that you got through I hope that you're free You and me

Sinnin' 02:47
Sinner in the morning Sinner when I shop You're a sinner when you're watchin' A sinner in the ballot box You can't hide from nothin' As you're beggin' on the floor And when the future's crumblin' Fate is knockin' on the door Sinnin' in the mornin' Sinnin' now it's borin' Sinnin' everyday it's all you do I'm not preachin' a heathen can't be teachin' Sinnin' in the mornin' time Sinnin' in the mornin' Sinnin' now it's borin' Sinnin' everyday it's all you do I'm not preachin' a heathen can't be teachin' Sinnin' in the mornin' time The dark clouds gettin' closer The nights are drawing in You shouldn't have robbed the pauper Your conscience is so thin You can't hide from nothin' As you're beggin' on the floor And when the future's crumblin' Fate is knockin' on the door Sinnin' in the mornin' Sinnin' now it's borin' Sinnin' everyday it's all you do I'm not preachin' a heathen can't be teachin' Sinnin' in the mornin' time Sinnin' in the mornin' Sinnin' now it's borin' Sinnin' everyday it's all you do I'm not preachin' a heathen can't be teachin' Sinnin' in the mornin' time Sinnin' in the mornin' Sinnin' now it's borin' Sinnin' everyday it's all you do I'm not preachin' a heathen can't be teachin' Sinnin' in the mornin' time Sinnin' in the mornin' Sinnin' now it's borin' Sinnin' everyday it's all you do I'm not preachin' a heathen can't be teachin' Sinnin' in the mornin' time Sinnin' in the mornin' Sinnin' now it's borin' Sinnin' everyday it's all you do I'm not preachin' a heathen can't be teachin' Sinnin' in the mornin' time

I've been thinkin' of the small town I grew up in I was dreamin' so complicated The past has been eclipsed now I feel jaded So won't you come and settle down Have a drink or three in my small town And when you leave you'll find the pier All the mysteries and things that happened here I'm dreamin' of my small town I'd been searchin' for the city I was yearnin' for some truth An idea that don't mean nothin' Thinkin' of my mispent youth So won't you come and settle down Have a drink or three in my small town And when you leave you'll find the pier All the mysteries and things that happened here I'm dreamin' of my small town Ooh ooh...

Sonic boost 02:18
Got my future on a 1,4,5 Singing songs to stay alive 6 and 3 for the sadness in me Riffin' on the past What is this heresy? All there for all to see Sonic boost in my memory The only way that I get free Big ideas feel like they're just for me Got some more if you please Saved my life with a demo and beer All that worry just disappeared Wonderin' how I got to here Broke a string and lost my fear What is this heresy? All there for all to see Sonic boost in my memory The only way that I get free Big ideas feel like they're just for me Got some more if you please Sonic boost in my memory The only way that I get free Big ideas feel like they're just for me Got some more if you please Sonic boost in my memory The only way that I get free Big ideas feel like they're just for me Got some more if you please

That we're sick of you and all you do We hope that you get a disease or two We hope that you'll grow up one day We're sick of you you keyboard warrior Ah ah ah...

Oh Maxwell! 02:40
Oh Maxwell! Let the sun shine down on you Oh Maxwell! Then will raise a glass or two Oh Maxwell! Let the rain not fall on you Oh Maxwell! Count the ways we'll make it through Passing the hours as quick as can be As bright as the flowers the stars and the trees Oh Maxwell! Let the sun shine down on you Oh Maxwell! Then will raise a glass or two Oh Maxwell! Let the rain not fall on you Oh Maxwell! Count the ways we'll make it through And you keep me going when life gets too fast And even though you are slowing The love's built to last Oh Maxwell! Let the sun shine down on you Oh Maxwell! Then will raise a glass or two Oh Maxwell! Let the rain not fall on you Oh Maxwell! Count the ways we'll make it through Oh Maxwell!

Gin demo #3 02:55
Sit in the corner and drink Marijuana Gin For an hour or two Or it seems like I have as I fall My mind starts to wander and now that I ponder All that is wrong in the world What to do what to do what to do It's love it's love love is all we have It's love it's love love is all we have Yes it's love love pots and pans Turtle Doves Yes it's love love but is that enough? Sit round the table and if you are able To stomach what you're being fed The world's starting over my heart's getting older The orbit it carries on Look to the future hope that we got one The past is a mirror of souls Everyone's worried the Earth's in a hurry We're stuck in a cycle of pain It's love it's love love is all we have It's love it's love love is all we have Yes it's love love pots and pans Turtle Doves Yes it's love love but is that enough? It's love it's love love is all we have It's love it's love love is all we have Yes it's love love pots and pans Turtle Doves Yes it's love love but is that enough? It's love it's love love is all we have It's love it's love love is all we have Yes it's love love pots and pans Turtle Doves Yes it's love love but is that enough? Yes it's love yes it's love but is that enough But is that enough? But is that enough?

take me down to the rough part of town In my Emperor's dressing gown today I'm a clown in my Emperor's dressing gown And i'm going to bring you down today Cos I just can't say what i'm feeling And there's just no way of believin' in me Buy or sell an ideology you can't quell Looking for the tells on their face Pretend to be what you've seen on ITV But you know you're so out of place Cos I just can't say what i'm feeling And there's just no way of believin' in me I don't know what I am I don't know or understand Let me go let me be I got it easy walking free You can't fight me I will win If you fight me you can't win You can't fight me I will win If you fight me you can't win You can't fight me I will win If you fight me you can't win You can't fight me I will win If you fight me you can't win

The wind is blowing outside A force you cannot deny Standing strong as we die Passing through the depths of time We will fold She will last forever We can't stay the same Listen to the warnings We know who to blame Our own misgivings The rain is falling down Burns our idleness We'll be buried in the ground As rivers stretch out from the shore We will lie She will take no prisoners We can't stay the same Listen to the warnings We know who to blame We can't stay the same Listen to the warnings We know who to blame
