The liar and the fool

Everybody's sorry when they get caught out
Everybody knows the truth
They know what you did now
Everybody's sorry when they get caught out
Everybody knows you lied
They know you need kicked out
And you're lying
I saw your mouth move
And the world spins round once again
No denying
A clown with small shoes
And we know we cannot depend
Everybody's sorry when they get caught out
Everybody knows the truth
They know what you did now
Everybody's sorry when they get caught out
Everybody knows you lied
They know you need kicked out
You're a liar you're a fool
But they worship you
No matter what you do
You're a moron a cheat and a flake
Hide out in the cold
It's too much to take
Everybody's sorry when they get caught out
Everybody needs you gone
You're a liar you're a fool
But they worship you
No matter what you do
You're a moron a cheat and a flake
Hide out in the cold
It's too much to take
You're a liar
You're a liar
You're a liar
You're a liar
Get out of my way
Get out of my way

Deflection

You want to know me really well
You want to see inside this hell of my creation
I want to let go of this spell
That overshadows all the help i'm forgettin'
I don't know what to do
I don't know what to do
I think i'm just like you
I think i'm just like you
The pill it was not blue
The pill it was not blue
I think that I took two
I think that I took...
Too much time is spent with my own thoughts
This kind of insight can't be bought
I know it's my way of rejecting
Oh deflection! Oh deflection!
Is it worth inspection?
Oh deflection! Oh deflection!
Feeding my rejection
So here's a story I can't tell
Without the sound of a ringing bell in your ear
Everything was going oh so well
But thin ice cracks or it does melt
And you're falling
I don't know what to do
I don't know what to do
I think i'm just like you
I think i'm just like you
The pill it was not blue
The pill it was not blue
I think that I took two
I think that I took...
Too much time is spent with my own thoughts
This kind of insight can't be bought
I know it's my way of rejecting
Oh deflection! Oh deflection!
Is it worth inspection?
Oh deflection! Oh deflection!
Feeding my rejection
There's all this emptiness and fear
None of the people I want here
There's only so much I can take
Oh deflection! Oh deflection!
Is it worth inspection?
Oh deflection! Oh deflection!
Feeding my rejection
Oh deflection! Oh deflection!
Is it worth inspection?
Oh deflection! Oh deflection!
Feeding my rejection
Ooh ooh!

Whispers
03:12

I tried to think of someone else
But it always comes back to you
The mirror smashed and I lost myself
And now I don’t know where I am
I tried to think of peace and love
And all the things there aren’t enough of
The screen is drowning thoughts and dreams
And I just wanna get back home
So what do I do?
And where do I go?
So what do I say?
She whispers, I don’t know
I tried to clear the mess in my head
And find a little wave of peace
Try not to overthink what I said
Now’s the time to move on
So what do I do?
And where do I go?
So what do I say?
She whispers, I don’t know
So what do I do?
And where do I go?
So what do I say?
She whispers, I don’t know

January song

Here's my January song
Now all my money's gone
But i'm so lucky and i'm so happy in myself
And there's no worries and there's no hurry to be helped
Here's my January song
Falling off a cliff everything is wrong
Here's where the truth it comes along
Now all the hope has gone
But i'm so lucky and i'm so happy in myself
And there's no worries and there's no hurry to be helped
Everything has gone to cliche
The sky is blue the clouds are grey
But i'm so lucky and i'm so happy in myself
And there's no worries and there's no hurry to be helped
But i'm so lucky and i'm so happy in myself
Ohh ooh...

The status quo
02:34

Ruled by elites and toffs
I wish they would fuck off
Too many cooks spoil the broth
I wish they would fuck off
That's the way of it
It won't ever change
I'm such a pessimist
All of the riches scoffed
I wish they would fuck off
Too many pigs in the trough
I wish they would fuck off
That's the way of it
It won't ever change
I'm such a pessimist
Ah ah ah...
Ruled by elites and toffs
I wish they would fuck off
Too many cooks spoil the broth
I wish they would fuck off
Ruled by elites and toffs
I wish they would fuck off
Too many cooks spoil the broth
I wish they would fuck off

It's not the end

Where do you go?
No one knows
But your soul lives on
In a space a fond place
A sweet memory nobody else knows
And I don't believe I don't believe
I don't believe I don't believe it's true
I'm just holding up a mirror to who I wanna be
What did you see? When you were here
Did you learn anything?
To be free and love without fear
The kindness that you bring
And I don't believe I don't believe
I don't believe I don't believe it's true
I'm just holding up a mirror to who I wanna be
And I don't believe I don't believe
I don't believe I don't believe it's true
I'm just holding up a mirror to who I wanna be
It's you so true so true
So true so true...

I don't need you to hate me
I can do that on my own
I don't need you to bait me
As i'm left crying alone
And as the drama comes to a head
The end of my own little show
All of the stars are outshining me
I'm lost as the story unfolds
I don't need you to love me
But loving the thought in my mind
The sky's falling down above me
So please will you try to be kind
And as the drama comes to a head
The end of my own little show
All of the stars are outshining me
I'm lost as the story unfolds
I can't hide
I won't try
i won't deny
I'm sick of wandering alone
I don't need you to hate me
I can do that on my own

Sit here in the blue and red
And the blue and yellow Sun
Confessions have begun
i've waited far too long
It don't define me but it's part of who I am
i'm glad you understand
I'll always cherish that
Cos don't you know I feel unsure
Until the wine it starts to pour
And now I know what I want to be for me
Sit here in the blue and red
And the world has just begun
I'm having so much fun
Nothing's feeling wrong
Why is it so hard for me to tell you who I am
I'd tell you if I can
I'm drowning on dry land
Cos don't you know I feel unsure
Until the wine it starts to pour
And now I know what I want to be for me
Cos I am yours you are mine
Have a laugh and drink some wine
Turn around and start again
I'm with all my special friends...

The unfinished song
03:18
|
|||
|
Starting to remember all the things I hoped to say
Tried to prepare myself for you to fade away
We’re not alone in going through this wretched pain
We’re not alone in feeling tired and afraid
The world it turns and atoms fall into their place
And I will always see the smile upon your face
Can’t bring you back but I can hold on to your soul
Don’t want to think about ever letting go
Reaching out to you all
An unfinished song can still be sung
A memory stuck in time
A person lost but the moment survives
The tide always comes back in
People gathering to share and understand
I’ll start to fall but they hold out a hand
The jigsaw has a piece that’s missing from it now
How do people get through this Without falling down
Reaching out to you all
An unfinished song can still be sung
A memory stuck in time
A person lost but the moment survives
The tide always comes back in
A bond so strong it will prevail
As water ripples we still set sail
The tide always comes back in

Dean Gaffney

He thinks he's Lennon or McCartney
But he's more like Dean Gaffney
He don't smile when he really should
He don't make his choices bad or good
He don't know what to know
He don't go with the flow
He's just lost in a million dreams today
He thinks he's the new Woody Guthrie
But he's more like Dean Gaffney
He don't try when he really should
He don't make a habit out of doing good
He don't know what to know
He don't go with the flow
He's just lost in a million dreams today
Ah ah ah...
He thinks he's Lennon or McCartney
But he's more like Dean Gaffney

Atoms

The coffee has gone cold
And i'm staring into space
Thinking of the times that make up all the lines
In the story of your life
If you're lucky you get old
And i'm reflecting on your soul
Thinking of the ways the happy yesterdays
Atoms floating in the sky
What you don't know now
You'll learn in time
The parting of the ways
The turning of a phrase
Atoms floating in the sky
When the clock it ticks no more
And the Sun hides in the sky
The emptiness and fear
Replaced by a joyful tear
And no-one really knows why
I want to be
High above the sea
I need to feel the pain and the joy
All the time
What is going on?
Everything seems wrong
And I don't know how I should feel
It doesn't seem so real now
Help me out
The world has gone
The coffee has gone cold
And i'm running out of space
Thinking of the ways the happy yesterdays
Atoms floating in the sky
