Wit's End 05:34
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 So leave me alone to get on with my life You're insignificant when out of my mind Don't fool yourself to think I mean anything 'Cause I'll hide what I want and cover up my feelings My happiness won't be a sentence away I won't ever think of the right words to say Deep down inside I'm sure I don't want to know So don't come and find me when I sleep 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 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'll hide what I want, I'll hide what I want yeah I'll hide what I want and cover up my feelings Haunted by my past, tormented by my dreams Cold and alone, cold and alone I don't want to know, I don't want to know I don't want to know yeah, cold and alon

White Flag 06:34
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

Dilemmas 04:54
I've got so much going on inside Conflicting views inside my mind I am so confused about myself How I feel about you, who can tell? Everything's been building up for years I've called for help but no one hears Things aren't going well compared to you You've got it all and I want you I've tried everything to make you see Just what you really mean to me I thought that I would lose this game I never knew you felt the same Mostly I just want to be alone Be with my thoughts just on my own But I'm so mixed up about it How I wish that you were with me now I've tried everything to make you see Just what you really mean to me I thought that I would lose this game I never knew you felt the same I don't know where my future lies I don't know if I'll cope But I know if I stay like this There will be no hope I've spent too long in this town But I don't want to go Because when things are as bad as this It can only get worse I've tried everything to make you see Just what you really mean to me I thought that I would lose this game I never knew you felt the same Your arrogance will keep you calm My stupid heart just does me harm Now should I run from you or stay? - Dilemmas that I face each day
4.
Papercut 05:02
When I see the shadows close around My life has then been found I'll leave you on the ground Papercut; it seems to hurt so much But there's no blade to touch - no weapon there as such I need you oh so much When I see the shadows close around My life has then been found I'll leave you on the ground Papercut; it seems to hurt so much But there's no blade to touch - no weapon there as such I need you oh so much The shadows close around My life has then been found I'll leave you on the ground Papercut; it seems to hurt so much But there's no blade to touch - no weapon there as such I need you oh so much
5.
Falling down around you are your dreams And all your broken plans Just don't blame yourself, what can you do? You know it's out of your hands When people's jobs are "a price worth paying" To keep down the prices that no one's paying And the people whose shoulders the blame falls upon Tell you it's over when it's barely begun In recessionland In a place where the worst is the best you can hope for Recessionland In a place everyday is the same as the last one "We're not out of touch"; said with their heads Buried deep in the sand It can't get any worse, but I'm sure it will When it's in their capable hands When people's lives are "a price worth paying" To increase investments that no one's making And the people whose shoulders the blame falls upon Couldn't care less about what's going on In recessionland In a place where the worst is the best you can hope for Recessionland In a place everyday is the same as the last one When people's lives are "a price worth paying" Well I've heard that it's helping economy grow But all that it's doing is making it hell For people's lives are worth more than money There's no way of knowing if worse things are coming And the people whose shoulders the blame falls upon Bathe in the sunshine as the rain tumbles on In recessionland In a place where the worst is the best you can hope for Recessionland In a place everyday is the same as the last one Recessionland In a place where lies and deception are common Recessionland In a place where the people will suffer too often
6.
Find The Way 03:40
If you can't find a way We won't see the light of day There's not much left to say If you can't find a way
7.
Passion 06:49
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
8.
Dead Men 04:03
Last night home in a lonely town A futile end awaits them The wives don't know if they'll make it this time The soldiers know that they're dead men Evening falls and the ships leave shore The onlookers don't feel the cold rain People watch as the light grows dim They won't be seeing their loved ones again An eighteen year old with his youth intact So proud to be fighting for country But he didn't know that he'd die alone So indistinct and so ugly The time will pass and the wounds will heal But bodies still catch inside the net Widows forgive and others don't care But the spirits of dead men will never forget
9.
Square One 04:45
On a high; oh, this is how it's meant to be You are mine and I can let my conscience free There's nowhere else I'd like to be but in your arms I should know a storm will follow after calm And now I'm crashing down back to the place I started from Hit the ground, and yet again I'm at square one I was sure that I had sorted out my mind I couldn't see, not anything 'cause I was blind I was sure that it would all make sense this time But now I know that I have just been left behind And now I'm crashing down back to the place I started from Hit the ground, and yet again I'm at square one There's nowhere else I'd like to be but in your arms I should know a storm will follow after calm And now I'm crashing down back to the place I started from Hit the ground, and yet again I'm at square one Blown apart while messing with a loaded gun At the start, 'cause yet again I'm at square one
10.
You weren't supposed to leave me You weren't supposed to disagree, no If only you'd believe me Maybe then you wouldn't leave, no I'm not supposed to need you And I'm not meant to know the truth, no I'm not supposed to argue 'Cause I've no right to pressure you So what if I did lie to you? So what if you deserved it too, oh? Of course I have been playing games But I'm not the only one to blame, no You pushed me many times before And threatened to walk out the door, oh But we both know you can't leave 'Cause you're the one that needs me You never stop complaining about me You kick and scream, but you've got no one else You'll never leave unless I force you Maybe you care, I can never tell I admit that I've been foolish To let you have what you wish, oh You think that I'm devoted But to me, you mean nothing You never stop complaining about me You kick and scream, but you've got no one else You'll never leave unless I force you Maybe you care, I can never tell You never stop complaining about me You kick and scream, but you've got no one else You'll never leave unless I force you Maybe you care, I can never tell You'll never know how little I need you I'll never care if you find someone else We live in our worlds of double deception Maybe we care, but we're too scared to tell
11.
Fall 04:38
I've grown old before my time You let me down; it's not the first time I've built a wall; no one gets through And I owe it all to you I stand alone I'll fall alone And I will fall They say I've just had bad luck I know that there's no way out I'll fall alone - I have no doubt I stand alone I'll fall alone And I will fall No brave face shall infect me Loneliness is all I'll breathe I stand alone I'll fall alone And I will fall
12.
Excuses 05:01
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
