Lost He could have gone so far He worked himself too hard It ended all too quick Another statistic Died When she was in her prime She had too little time Let's all break out and fight Ignore the words of Christ I'm not waiting for doomsday to swallow me Your faith has got no part in my destiny Stop I'm tired of all this pain There is no God to blame Destruction once again Tell me is this all in vain? I'm not waiting for doomsday to swallow me Your faith has got no part in my destiny My fate is overruled by me anyway Condemn 'cause we're all destined to die someday We're condemned I'm not waiting for doomsday to swallow me Your faith has got no part in my destiny My fate is overruled by me on my own Condemn 'cause we're all destined to die alone We're condemned

I've had enough of covering for you Listen to me: I'll tell you what to do Make a new life that's far away from me Somewhere that you can lie easily People won't know you, people won't care People won't listen; they're not aware Then you will learn that you are nothing You just don't matter in my big scheme No more excuses "No more"; what you said No more excuses No more excuses Have you had enough now? Do you realize? It's not what you say it's the blood in your eyes You're better than me, well that's what you claim But who really is free at the end of the day? You've got bank accounts that could buy all Mars An I.Q. level that hits the stars But what do you know about life and death? When the years have gone you'll have nothing left Just a floor to hit with a mighty drop You'll be a bag of bones with the head cut off Surely you see an inferior complex is a lot safer than a superior one No more excuses "No more"; what you said No more excuses No more excuses I've had enough of covering for you Listen to me: I'll tell you what to do Make a new life that's far away from me Somewhere that you can lie easily No more excuses "No more"; what you said No more excuses No more excuses

It's not my fault that you're not here Don't shift the blame or show your fear Your pride's been damaged, that's for sure But that's no case to start a war I only said I didn't need You as much as I thought I did You turned it 'round and used those words As a source of evil curse Now you've gone and in your time You've planned an attack on my front line The bombs will fly and the ships will sink But in the midst I can't help think That I want you, and you want me So this is all unnecessary Lay down your arms and call a truce I've tried and tried but what's the use? It's up to you You know what to do Think of the cost Before lives are lost Give up now, forget your hate Because I fear my life's at stake You confirm what I've known along You think you're right and I know you're wrong I wish you'd listen - I still need you So hold my hand, don't be a fool But you continue with the flak Just drop your knives, show me your white flag It's up to you You know what to do Think of the cost Before lives are lost So hold my hand We'll make a better land Don't hesitate Or it will be too late
4.
Cold and alone, that's the way I want to be Some half-arsed statement on democracy Set in my ways with no emotion to see The respectable backside of society A fatal floor in my main issue - A floor that goes by the name of you You seem to want me because you show no hate I can live without you but there's no escape My happiness could be a sentence away If I can just think of the right words to say Deep down inside I think I don't want to know Just want to retreat and go and live in my hole You do something to me that I can't quite comprehend I try to forget you but you just come back again Your voice goes right through me and it's driving me insane But when you ignore me you drive me to my wit's end Haunted by my past, tormented by my dreams Safety is so far away, my life's not what it seems You walk into my world to provide me with some hope But I don't want to know, oh I don't want to know My happiness could be a statement away If I can just think of the right words to say Deep down inside I think I don't want to know Just want to retreat and go and live in my hole You do something to me that I can't quite comprehend I try to forget you but you just come back again Your voice goes right through me and it's driving me insane But when you ignore me you drive me to my wit's end, to my wit's end Just want to be passive and not have to say a word Don't want to force myself - so I am never heard Don't want to be with you, don't want to hold you now Don't want to change the world, I'm happy as I am Cold and alone, cold and alone yeah Cold and alone, that's the way I want to be I don't want to know, I don't want to know I don't want to know yeah, cold and alone

Initial lust has turned to dust Because of lack of mutual trust But too much talk and not much thought I wish you'd learned what I had taught It worked out fine when you were mine But things broke down when we ran out of time Where are we going with this passion falling down? Just persevere 'cause it's got to get better now I can't believe that you would leave So come back now or we'll both grieve It worked out fine when you were mine But things broke down when we ran out of time Where are we going with this passion falling down? Just persevere 'cause it's got to get better now What are you doing? Don't walk out, no you can't leave Not when I'm empty - when I need you here with me Where are we going with this passion falling down? Just persevere 'cause it's got to get better now What are you doing? Don't walk out, no you can't leave Not when I'm empty - when I need you here with me Where are we going with this passion falling down? Just persevere 'cause it's got to get better now Why are we stubborn when we should be starting out? Follow it through and it's got to get better now

Small dog chewing some man's hand As he passes the Hotel Grand Not quite sure what's the plan He's a long way from his father's land Lights up a butt and takes a drag Can't recall the last meal he had Pulls a drink from his sleeping bag Folks look down - they know he's bad Sees a place called Moe's Saloon He knows it's gonna be pay day soon Looking for a man called Carlos Moon Shoots him down in the back of the room Across the plains of El Paso Over the mountains of Mexico Looking for somewhere to go For the man with no home Across the skies of San Pedro Through the towns of Antonio Looking for somewhere to go For the man with no home Across the rivers of Angelo Under the moon of Salvador Looking for somewhere to go For the man with no home Across the rivers of San Angelo Under the moons of Salvador Looking for somewhere to go For the man with no home Across the skies of San Pedro Through the towns of Antonio Looking for somewhere to go For the man with no home Across the plains of El Paso Over the mountains of Mexico Looking for somewhere to go For the man with no home

When I'm feeling everything is causing me to criticize myself I think of all the things you said when you tried to get me to pull myself out of this mess I'm in, but I won't listen to you now I know I'm right, you try to fight but I'm not listening It's too late, I'm a lost cause however hard you try I won't change, I'm too stubborn - I like to live a lie Make me stay: I don't think so; I'm far too old to try What's the point? There's no reason - I like to live a lie I am my own worst enemy, we talk it through and you must see If all that's left is memories there's nothing here for you or me I can't believe in everything, I don't believe in anything I've lost my faith in all I see, all that I feel is misery You keep trying, trying, trying, trying, trying You keep trying You keep trying, trying, trying, trying, trying, trying When I'm feeling everyone is causing me to crucify myself I think of all the things you said, and it just hurts like hell It's too late, I'm a lost cause however hard you try I won't change, I'm too stubborn - I like to live a lie Make me stay: I don't think so; I'm far too old to try What's the point? There's no reason - I like to live a lie Make me behave (I'm feeling everyone is causing me to crucify myself) You keep trying and I can't work out why Do what you want (I'm feeling everyone is causing me to crucify myself) (I'm not yours now) I'm not yours now - I like to live a lie More than this, more than this (I'm feeling everyone is causing me to crucify myself) More than this, more than this (I'm feeling everyone is causing me to crucify myself) More than this, more than this There's more than this, more than this

Caught up inside a maze: it's a disgrace - I've lost my place Can't seem to get what I want: it all goes wrong - it's been so long Had you: well that's what I thought, but the more we talked, the less I bought Needed to find somewhere where I wouldn't care but we still could share Left you for no one else but for myself, so I could tell Someone said that was wrong: I should not have gone - I've been here too long That's not what I need you for: just an open door; someone to abhor I will find my own path, a life which will last in a better class Have to move on, find a new home Leave behind me what reminds me Feeling that I'm getting there, that I'm more aware - starting to care Needing no one but myself, and I know that well; my private hell Had you: but now that is gone; it's been dead so long - it just all seemed wrong Making a life for me now you would not allow - you just don't know how Can't see further, lusted for her When I take it, I just break it If I leave here I'll lose my fear And I just might make things work right Found direction: complications Things that I want - more important Looking forward, I hurt no more Living my life for the first time When I leave here my mind is clear Future's nearer - end of an era
9.
Call me feeble, that doesn't scare me Call me weak willed, I call it carefree If you're thinking you dominate me You're far more foolish: I hold the real key You thought of everything just to get me to say how wrong I'd been I gave you everything, but that wasn't enough for you it seems The heart of the problem is not my attitude You don't believe that anymore than I do You thought of everything just to get me to say how wrong I'd been I gave you everything, but that wasn't enough for you it seems What have I done that has made you so callous? I've been so good but you plot behind my back Walk all over me, make a fool of me How could you do that, how could you do that? You've got this complex that you're better than me This situation can't get more ugly You thought of everything just to get me to say how wrong I'd been I gave you everything, but that wasn't enough for you it seems We talked of all the things that have made us become so negative And what the future brings will just help reinforce I can't forgive
10.
I'll tell myself it's the mood I'm in; It's the people here that I can't forgive My uncertainty is the death of me Do I stay this way or will you let me free? It seemed so clear: just let it pass me by Live for the day - any chances stay denied My day-to-day soon becomes a way of life But I'd give the world just for something else tonight I deserve much more than this, it's easy to just let it rest I guess it's up to me to make my way up from the doldrums I'll tell myself it's the mood I'm in; It's the people here that I can't forgive My uncertainty is the death of me Do I stay this way or will you let me free? I've lived my life always as a hedonist I'm starting to think of all that I have missed What about commitment and a chance to feel desired? Oh I'm sure you feel the same way but you don't want to admit it I know myself, perhaps far too well It's this town I'm in: just an urban hell My uncertainty is never good to me I'd be good to you if you would just let me Well, time's running out There's no one about They've all left me now Will you tell me how? I know you feel the same way, so why won't you just admit it? I'll tell myself it's the mood I'm in; It's the people here that I can't forgive My uncertainty is the death of me Do I stay this way or will you let me free? I kick myself because I'm too laid back I'd assert myself, but I have lost the knack Uncertainty is my enemy But with you with me think what we could achieve
11.
You used to be there for me You said that you cared for me I'd never decide in haste But I knew I'd found my place So I put my life on hold And waited for love to grow Well that was five years ago How was I supposed to know? That I'd have to walk away And let the memories fade To lose what I thought I'd found Has twisted my life around Have I been hiding inside myself (Have I been hiding?) Hoping for love to provide my help? Now I can move on Sing happier songs to myself Well, I've had to carry on Confront all the things I've done There's bitterness in my head And words I should not have said Declare that enough's enough When I thought I'd self destruct Think only of other ways Make sure I have better days Have I been hiding inside myself (Have I been hiding?) Hoping for love to provide my help? Now I can move on Sing happier songs to myself If I've been hiding inside myself (Have I been hiding?) And losing you left me overwhelmed Maybe this will be The opportunity that I need Wait for one day Just one more day Things could change I've been hiding And I've been hiding inside myself (Have I been hiding?) Hoping for love to provide my help Now I can move on Sing happier songs to myself And I'll occasionally think of you (Have I been hiding?) And all the things that we used to do And I'll wonder if I had really tried Would you too? (Have I been hiding, have I been hiding, have I been hiding, have I been hiding?) Would you too, would you too, would you too? Would you too, would you too? (Have I been hiding, have I been hiding, have I been hiding, have I been hiding?) Hiding, always hiding, always hiding from you (Have I been hiding, have I been hiding, have I been hiding?) Hiding, always hiding, from you (Have I been hiding, have I been hiding, have I been hiding?) Hiding, always hiding, from you (Have I been hiding, have I been hiding, have I been hiding?) Hiding, hiding, from you, from you
12.
More or less My life had become one big mess She couldn't believe that I wouldn't deceive her Commitment to her was a test Then you came And took with you all of my shame But I began thinking that you'd be no different Same old story again When the only thing holding you back Is the fear that you'll find what you lack There's no benefit in being shy Just relax and give passion a try Aren't you ignoring the reason That's seen the change in this season? The only thing stopping me falling Is the support you have for me Now we're fine But I think she wants to be mine Maybe she's realised just what she's been missing But I won't be falling this time Well there's nothing that I wouldn't do Just as long as it means I'm with you And you know that I'm going nowhere So why don't you admit that you care? Aren't you ignoring the reason That's seen the change in this season? The only thing stopping me falling Is the support you have for me You're calling, I hear you calling You whisper my name in the morning Ever since you've been my lover My life's been in permanent summer When the only thing holding you back Is the fear that you'll find what you lack And there's nothing that I wouldn't do Just as long as it means I'm with you Aren't you ignoring the reason That's seen the change in this season? The only thing stopping me falling Is the support you have for me You're calling, I hear you calling You whisper my name in the morning Ever since you've been my lover My life's been in permanent summer

I check my watch, it's half past six You stretch your tights and fix your lips I meet the lads at the Rose In June You down a gin and play some tunes At closing time I join the queue I catch your eye - you see me too We spend all evening talking small Then end up in your front hall This is how I feel the morning after With no more music and no more laughter The night before was fast and free But how long will you stay with me? When I wake up I'm next to you Is this the start of something new? Your makeup smudged, your hair a mess I don't feel well, I must confess This is how I feel the morning after With no more music and no more laughter The night before was fast and free But how long will you stay with me? You mumble something I don't hear I just want to disappear I pick my clothes up off the floor And you direct me to the door This is how I feel the morning after With no more music and no more laughter The night before was fast and free But how long will you stay with me? This is how I feel the morning after With no more music and no more laughter The night before was fast and free But how long will you stay with me?
14.
You talk of our future As if it's been set in stone I err on the side of caution I'm accustomed to being alone While I know the things I do Are not acceptable to you It seems the more I try to stop The more I feel I'm giving up I want to be wanted I strive to be worth it You thought I was thoughtless Then walk - see if I care less Maybe I'm in denial Reinvention is drawing near Well, she's a sympathetic ear Making sense of all I fear And though I know I'm doing wrong I feel I've got to carry on I'm giving up hope of finding perfection I find it hard enough just seeking affection You think it's a joke - then why aren't you laughing? I'm a realist - is that such a bad thing? No giving in, no compromises No giving in, no compromises No giving in, no compromises No giving in, no compromises No compromises, no compromises No compromises, no compromises No compromises, no compromises No compromises, no compromises I'm not the person I once was I've been corrupted by my cause This is my one state of affairs In a State that's not aware I want to be wanted I strive to be worth it You thought I was thoughtless Then walk, go on - just see if I care less Tell me you don't need me And then I can be free Tell me you don't need me And then I can be free No giving in, no compromises
15.
From out of this window A sense of perspective falls in place Can't cope with your tears Forever cascading down your face Told you to leave me The smell of your perfume's faded Another finale We'd never have made it You've got to get yourself your own life Rather than waiting for the good times Don't hold your loneliness to ransom Just know that love is not the answer Where does the time go? And will you ever really know Of all my effort? Personal pride won't let it show Draw the conclusion That you weren't meant to be with me And what would it be To truly be carefree? You've got to get yourself your own life Rather than waiting for the good times Don't hold your loneliness to ransom Just know that love is not the answer You won't get half the things you're after If you let loving be your master Instead of living through the bad times You've got to get yourself your own life Time, and time again I've sworn that I'll not fall again Now is the time to say I'll definitely not fall again No You've got to get yourself your own life Rather than waiting for the good times Don't hold your loneliness to ransom Just know that love is not the answer You won't get half the things you're after If you let loving be your master Instead of living through the bad times You've got to get yourself your own life Love is not the answer, love is not the answer Love is not the answer, love is not the answer (You've got to get yourself your own life) Love is not the answer, love is not the answer (You've got to get yourself your own life) Love is not the answer, love is not the answer Love is not the answer, love is not the answer (You've got to get yourself your own life) Love is not the answer, love is not the answer Love is not the answer, love is not the answer
16.
It's so bemusing, with so little time left That you still don't know yet, how I feel I've tried to make it as clear as any headline But short of reading my mind, you never knew We're near the ending of our time together And it's now or never, before we're gone Give in to your feelings For just this evening there's nothing more I've contemplated all the pending outcomes And you know I've found one that's for us But you're spending money as if there's no tomorrow And there is no tomorrow anymore Give in to your feelings For just this evening there's nothing more You're always so misleading For just one evening say nothing more If I tell you soon, will I seem a fool? Or will you agree that it's destiny? Will you think me crude, seeking only you? Or have I not seen that you're craving me? If it all goes wrong, will you be the one Standing there with me, waiting patiently? If we don't act soon, when we leave this room There'll be nothing left Give in to your feelings For just this evening there's nothing more Feelings are deceiving For just an evening think nothing more You're always so misleading For just one evening say nothing more
17.
We can travel so far and wide Cross the borders, visit cities Journey on and into the night Stopping off when we feel weary But just what do we leave behind? Does it really need defining? Do we learn the lesson this time Or will we just keep driving? Do you remember things we did? What they said when we were kids? We could wave goodbye to this if we don't bother (They're snapping at my heels) Now you're just staring at your 'phone Disregarding all you've known And you're trying to be the same as all the others (I fall beneath the wheels) Distant cousins say it's not right But I feel it getting warmer And the rain, it beats down all night Now there's no such thing as normal Cross the street on foot if you dare Take a step and take your chances Taking in what's left of the air We are so half-hearted Was it me or was it you? Who was the first to tear right through All the things we said we'd do with good intentions? (They're snapping at my heels) And the only consequence Is no inconvenience Yet we'll find the true expense will not be mentioned (I fall beneath the wheels) Am I the only one that's left Who's sticking by the things we said? Maybe one day, but not yet, we'll find an option (They're snapping at my heels) While you're playing with your 'phone Your friends and lovers sit alone Waiting for some kind of home that you can't give them (I fall beneath the wheels) Will there ever be a way We can accommodate this pace And preserve some empty space for all that follow? (They're snapping at my heels) You're just staring into space Because you've never found that place And you've never had the time to really bother They're snapping at my heels I fall beneath the wheels We're not living our lives We're just desensitised We all pine for the past The present will not last
18.
I've known you for years, you've always been near A friend and a confidant But somehow that's changed, sensation so strange And now it's you I want We only have this one life We only have so much time To waste this one chance of potential romance Could stop you from being mine Wanting the world, it's true Hoping you'll want it too Will I one day be yours? Am I clutching at straws? Well, I'd make the effort for you Too timid to say, then I go away Rehearsing the lines I might say the next time But I never do, and neither do you Leaving clues in my head from words that were said You've probably not thought it at all You may have been dreaming of more If you never try then neither will I But is anyone ever sure? Wanting the world, it's true Hoping you'll want it too Will I one day be yours? Am I clutching at straws? Well, I'd make the effort for you Will I one day be yours? Am I clutching at straws? Well, I'd make the effort for you Oh, I'd make the effort for you Yes, I'd make the effort for you
19.
Why be so sad When you've so much going for you? I've never had Someone that's made me feel so new Feeling your warmth Spurs me on 'til the evening Making me sure That you'll be waiting to greet me I've told you before that I'm going nowhere Not taking a step until I know that you're there I'm in for the duration and I'm out for the count Don't want you in moderation when I'm needing you now You're with me now, you're not with him I'll show you how - don't be a victim You know I'm glad To be here living beside you Would it feel bad If I were not here in this room? It took a while To find my way into your mind Now, when you smile I'm sure it's worth all of my time I've told you before that I belong to you If you're treating me right then we've got nothing to lose I'm hook, line and sinkered, and you're reeling me in Drawing me closer to the touch of your skin You're with me now, you're not with him I'll show you how - don't be a victim There's a future waiting for us If you just can give me your trust I've told you before that I'm committed to you If you can't accept that fact then you're blind to the truth The transaction's completed, I've delivered the goods There no chance of a refund - I don't think that you could You're with me now, you're not with him (Not with him, you're not with him) I'll show you how - don't be a victim (A victim, not a victim) There's a future waiting for us (For us, waiting for us) If you just can give me your trust (Give your trust, give me your trust) Leave your problems far behind you (Behind you, far behind you) Why should you doubt how I feel for you? (I feel you, I feel for you) We've a future as an item (An item, as an item) That come together, should you buy them (You buy them, should you buy them) Don't be a victim (A victim, not a victim) Don't be a victim
20.
Towering needs are dwarfed by imagination In the church perpetual congregation Haphazard needs are overtaken by fear Thoughts once warped now surface too clear Influence my bias towards life You've kissed me with your timeless knife To fall unseen is to fall unknowing Seeds of death are what we are sowing It's common knowledge that all words mean nothing And this comes as no surprise It may seem hard to grasp but words aren't meant to last And all that you hear is lies Sanctify my superficial lust for boredom You fear life as I fear my freedom Have you felt my insipid need to campaign? From retreat we must regain While life now teaches us destitution Deserts speak your retribution Literature; it all adds up to nothing Our life force shall be forthcoming It's common knowledge that all words mean nothing And this comes as no surprise It may seem hard to grasp but words aren't meant to last And all that you hear is lies Overstretch towards communication In the black depth of elation Bitter sweet lies and continuation Implode near my aberration It's common knowledge that all words mean nothing And this comes as no surprise It may seem hard to grasp but words aren't meant to last And all that you hear is lies This comes as no suprise All that you hear is lies
21.
I know you, I fear you Whenever I'm near you I can't seem to tell you Just what I feel for you I need you to go through This with me - it's all new I'm lusting, pulse beating I still feel you're cheating It's trusting, trusting you Should be easy to do With all that I've been through I trust no one but you I'm trying, I'm trying This complex is my thing I'll handle it my way Do you feel just the same? I've never wanted anything before I've never felt more than expendable Maybe you have made me think new ways I've never known anything than cold days Maybe I'm reading too much in this I expect only a moment's bliss I feel like an old fool That's followed the last rule And been walked all over I'm trying, I'm trying I feel like I'm dying I've never wanted anything before I've never felt more than expendable Maybe you have made me think new ways I've never known anything than cold days Maybe I'm reading too much in this I expect only a moment's bliss I have learned I must abandon this I deserve only a moment's bliss I'm trying, I'm trying I'm trying, I'm trying I'm trying, I'm trying I feel like, feel like I'm dying
22.
You make me feel like I'm that child again That sense of wonderment once lost in time You make me forget all of the nasty things Those insecurities are left behind I tried to tell you, yes I tried to tell you But the meaning's never in the words I say It's hard to get through when you're being so cool But I get the feeling we'll be here again How can one thing that's so good go so wrong? I thought that we belonged, now I feel drained So maybe sometime we'll find our compromise And then we'll seize the prize that we both crave I tried to tell you, yes I tried to tell you But the meaning's never in the words I say It's hard to get through when you're being so cool But I get the feeling we'll be here again What would you say if I went away? Would you forget about me in a matter of days? And if I go, I want you to know That I'm the only person you can blame I've been confused, broken the rules Wanted respect when nothing was due Just needed you there, were you aware? But I got scared, now nothing is fair So will you show me the way? Banish the pain Teach me to care - it hurts when you're not there I tried to tell you, yes I tried to tell you But the meaning's never in the words I say It's hard to get through when you're being so cool But I get the feeling we'll be here again But I get the feeling we'll be here again Yes I get the feeling we'll be here again And I get that feeling (show me the way) I get that feeling (show me the way) What would you say?

For quite some time now You've been leading me on But I'm on your case Because I've known all along Did you think I'd never know? Did you think you'd keep it from me? Well, I've got news for you You're not fooling anybody I've known of your crazy plans and I've controlled them all When you've got what you want from me I'm expendable I'll prevent you being confused, because I refuse to be used You've heard it before and it's nothing new I refuse to be used You're always scheming Because that's what you are It's plain and simple this time you've gone too far Don't deny what you have been seen doing all along I won't allow you to continue making things go wrong I'll prevent you being confused, because I refuse to be used You've heard it before and it's nothing new I refuse to be used I'll prevent you being confused, because I refuse to be used You've heard it before and it's nothing new I refuse to be used Don't deny what you have been seen doing all along I won't allow you to continue making things go wrong I'll prevent you being confused, because I refuse to be used You've heard it before and it's nothing new I refuse to be used I'll prevent you being confused, because I refuse to be used You've heard it before and it's nothing new I refuse to be used It's plain and simple I'm on your case

Depth 06:57
Reminisce of what you've missed You can only guess how you pulled through Those events that time won't mend You'll find again, it all comes back to you Looking back to face the fact That what you lack is just a home So here you are, you've gone this far We fell apart and now you're on your own Things are different now But you don't know how You want to stay with me I want to be free You're out of your depth Just like I always said And you're in debt But it's not over yet Looking back, let's face the fact You've lost the knack of what to do Look at me: I'm the fool But I'm not the one that said I need you Things are different now But you don't know how You want to stay with me I want to be free You're out of your depth Just like I always said And you're in debt But it's not over yet You're out of your depth Just like I always said And you're in debt It's not over yet

I've known you for years, you've always been near A friend and a confidant But somehow that's changed, sensation so strange And now it's you I want We only have this one life We only have so much time To waste this one chance of potential romance Could stop you from being mine Wanting the world, it's true Hoping you'll want it too Will I one day be yours? Am I clutching at straws? Well, I'd make the effort for you Too timid to say, then I go away Rehearsing the lines I might say the next time But I never do, and neither do you Leaving clues in my head from words that were said You've probably not thought it at all You may have been dreaming of more If you never try then neither will I But is anyone ever sure? Wanting the world, it's true Hoping you'll want it too Will I one day be yours? Am I clutching at straws? Well, I'd make the effort for you Will I one day be yours? Am I clutching at straws? Well, I'd make the effort for you Oh, I'd make the effort for you Yes, I'd make the effort for you

My Own Right 04:15
I don't live to a business plan I live exactly as I am Without one single thing to prove Least of all to the likes of you And yet you lecture me on truths Of how I'll "end up" just as you do I think you're needing me on board To stop you feeling insecure I'm a person in my own right too Don't curse me 'cause I'm not like you And just because I won't conform Don't mean you should be pouring scorn Look down on me like I'm a fool As I'm not living by your rules When all the ideals you hold dear Are bound together by your fears And all the people that you lust Are viewed through thinly veiled trust Shining example to us all To live and die by your own sword I'm a person in my own right too Don't curse me 'cause I'm not like you And just because I won't conform Don't mean you should be pouring scorn So you capitulate and breed Convince yourself it's all you need You just can't bear to be alone Doubt you could function on your own But where's the passion in your life? The spark that keeps the flame alight? Now when I look at you I see That fire has turned to jealousy I'm a person in my own right too Don't curse me 'cause I'm not like you And just because I won't conform Don't mean you should be pouring scorn I'm a victim of my circumstance You've never given half a chance Yeah, maybe I don't know I'm born At least I know I'm standing tall So when you're old and had enough And all the people that you've loved Have long since gone or passed away Well maybe then you'll feel the same I'm a person in my own right too Don't curse me 'cause I'm not like you And just because I won't conform Don't mean you should be pouring scorn I'm a victim of my circumstance You've never given half a chance Yeah, maybe I don't know I'm born At least I know I'm standing tall

Feel So Cold 05:53
To turn away from what could be And get you off my mind Just memories of yesterday And a past I'll leave behind I feel so cold I don't want you to go I feel so cold I don't want you to go I've turned away from what could be And got you out my mind With memories of yesterday And a past I've left behind I feel so cold I don't want you to go I feel so cold I don't want you to go I feel so cold I don't want you to go I feel so cold I don't want you to go I feel so cold I don't want you to go I feel so cold I don't want you to go I feel so cold I don't want you to go I feel so cold I don't want you to go I feel so cold I feel so cold I feel so cold I feel so cold

I know all about you I've heard just what you do But I've only heard the one side The side that you left behind It could be that I don't know The whole thing - even so The result of all that you did Is that she has to live with it Living in your shadow Does it always have to be the same? With so many hang-ups What's left in her past gets in the way I'm living in your shadow If ever we'd have met We might have becom friends To share the same companion Must mean we've things in common But now I'm hearing daily How she can never be free Or forget all that happened And that's no consolation Living in your shadow Does it always have to be the same? With so many issues What's been in her past gets in the way Living in your shadow Feeling repercussions every day Maybe she'd forget you If she'd focus on the things I say I'm living in your shadow Why were you the first Creating all this hurt? If I'd been there right from the start I'd have protected and guarded her heart But for now... I'm living in your shadow Does it always have to be the same? With so many hang-ups What's left in her past gets in the way Living in your shadow Knowing each and every single day If she can forget you Tomorrow could become today I'm living in your shadow

Epilogue 03:48
37.
Sid and Joan lived through two world wars Stillborn babies and near divorce Stayed together for the sake of the children, of course They stare out from the counter and onto the street To where the tyres and tarmac roam where once there were feet Without the people passing by the view's not complete And the shop across the road is an echo of the good old days But the memory of the shop across the road will one day fade Like Sid and Joan, the shop's seen better days Seems pretty empty now the children moved away Sid thought at least his son would want to stay They opened the shop back in 1953 Called it a "General Store and Haberdashery" Believed it was the roots of their growing family tree And the shop across the road is an echo of the good old days But the memory of the shop across the road will one day fade And the shop across the road's a memorial to better ways But the shop across the road seems an awful long way away And the long and winding road That leads to your door Became a dual carriageway You can't cross there no more When Sid died, Joan couldn't manage on her own She had to sell the shop to pay for the nursing home The shop across the road now sells mobile phones To the people who go shopping in hangers out of town Who drive there and back and in between walk up and down Bumping into trolleys and learning how to frown And the shop across the road is an echo of the good old days But the memory of the shop across the road will one day fade And the shop across the road's a memorial to better ways But the shop across the road seems an awful long way away But the shop across the road seems an awful long way away But the shop across the road seems an awful long way away
