Paper Plane

|
Feeling bitter as I slowly come undone
Like a cigarette that burns upon my tongue
The radio’s playing but it doesn’t make a sound
I think I’m dreaming because head’s stuck in the clouds
Wrap me with complexities I’m not the man I used to be
Watch the rain fall down on me tonight, tonight
Wearing thin like cellophane I’m crashing like a paper plane
The curtains closing fast on me tonight, tonight
Bad decisions they will always haunt my mind
I'm feeling guilty and the nerves shape up my spine
I wish I didn’t and I want to pull the plug
I know I’m dreaming and I wish I could wake up
Wrap me with complexities I’m not the man I used to be
Watch the rain fall down on me tonight, tonight
Wearing thin like cellophane I’m crashing like a paper plane
The curtains closing fast on me tonight, tonight
I know I know the choice is made
I know there is a price to pay
I wish that I could stop and pull the plug
I know know the choice is made
I know that I am not the same
I wish that I could stop and just wake up
Wrap me with complexities I’m not the man I used to be
Watch the rain fall down on me tonight, tonight
Wearing thin like cellophane I’m crashing like a paper plane
The curtains closing fast on me tonight, tonight

Gun In Hand
02:57
|

|
The city's sleeping but the streets wake up at night
No indication not a word from you tonight
I'm losing patience like a dog without a bone
Constantly waiting agitation overflows
Do the best you can when you're smiling back at me
With your gun in hand pull the trigger I can't see
No need to contemplate it, The thrill is slowly fading
Do the best you can when you're smiling back at me
The weeks keep dragging and the days they go by slow
Like a London summer you're so hot but then you're cold
So sick of waiting don't you make me beg and plead
But still I'm yearning and I'm falling to my knees
Do the best you can when you're smiling back at me
With your gun in hand pull the trigger I can't see
No need to contemplate it, The thrill is slowly fading
Do the best you can when you're smiling back at me
Do the best you can, with your gun in hand
Do the best you can, with your gun in hand

Clouds
03:33

Take a walk, hold my hand and you'll see the other side
When you open your eyes you will see that it's quite alright
Don't believe any word of what other people say
Their reflection reveals they are wrong and they are nothing but the same
When the sky comes falling down
I'll be sure to stick around
Forget the past for here and now
And float with me into the clouds
This is real this is love and we make our great escape
I'm aware and you know this is true and there is no mistake
Don't believe any word of what other people say
Their reflection reveals they are wrong and they are nothing but the same
When the sky comes falling down
I'll be sure to stick around
Forget the past for here and now
And float with me into the clouds

Underground
04:09
|

|
The ashtray's full and overflows, it get's oh so crazy
In 2 more hours can we go home? Say yes or no not maybe
My weary eyes they're growing tired, always in a cycle
Not getting answers for the thousandth time
Stitched up on Thursday in time for Friday
Could be the day when everything will fall apart
Fading on Saturday wake up on Sunday
In many ways this looks like it could be the start
It seems we're falling down not for the first time
We're going underground not for the last time
We spin around like fireflies, always in a hurry
Wounds on display enjoy the show, scars always tell the story
The hours late but I'm so wired, in a constant cycle
So where's the answer for the thousandth time?
Stitched up on Thursday in time for Friday
Could be the day when everything will fall apart
Fading on Saturday wake up on Sunday
In many ways this looks like it could be the start
It seems we're falling down not for the first time
We're going underground not for the last time
It seems we're falling down not for the first time
We're going underground not for the last time

Vacant Scene
03:48
|

|
I can't sleep so I'll turn on the news
Same stuff but beggars cannot choose
Flashback to 1999 where everything appeared just fine
Employment could you come by soon
No purpose makes one sing the blues
Still lazy as the days go by I guess I'll smoke to pass the time
To pass the time
I'm still unsure of what it means
And I'm calling for lights to hit the vacant scene
In search for things to fill the void
Because I'm 23 and I'm still unemployed
No sleep and nothings on the news
I guess that I can never choose
Flashback to 1999 where everything seemed quite alright
No options have come to my door
6 months and I'm still keeping score
Still lying here as days go by I guess more cigarettes from 9 to 5
From 9 to 5
I'm still unsure of what it means
And I'm calling for lights to hit the vacant scene
In search for things to fill the void
Because I'm 23 and I'm still unemployed
I'm still unsure of what it means
And I'm calling for lights to hit the vacant scene
In search for things to fill the void
Because I'm 23 and I'm still unemployed

Fixation
04:53
|

|
I swear it's just like the first time
Just like the last time just at the wrong time
I've never felt like I've felt now
I don't recall how always get let down
I'm floating in my fixation
Great expectation full hesitation
I beg you kill my affliction, be my prescription feed my addiction
Please don't take me home
Leave me here I'll be alright
I don't want to face the light
Place me here I'll be just fine
What an attractive suggestion
Twisted affection tainted perfection
Breakdown my mind and emotions
Sink through the ocean show no devotion
I'm floating in my fixation
Great expectation full hesitation
I beg you kill my affliction, be my prescription feed my addiction
Please don't take me home
Leave me here I'll be alright
I don't want to face the light
Place me here I'll be just fine
Please don't take me home
Leave me here I'll be alright
I don't want to face the light
Place me here I'll be just fine

Nothing To Hold
03:43
|

I just don't have a clue she said she needs some time to think
She she left me feeling blue she had no idea that I'm in love
My baby's nowhere near 'cause she is gone
The cruelest dream I've ever dreamed
Nights are so empty since she's gone away
Clouds choke the blue skies so days turn to grey
Two hearts grow distant as one goes astray
With nothing to hold
I guess I can't comply with everything surrounding me
She left me high and dry she had no idea that I'm in love
My baby's nowhere near 'cause she is gone
The strangest thing I've ever seen
Nights are so empty since she's gone away
Clouds choke the blue skies so days turn to grey
Two hearts grow distant as one goes astray
With nothing to hold
I just don't have a clue with everything surrounding me
She she left me feeling blue she had no idea that I'm in love
My baby's nowhere near 'cause she is gone
The cruelest dream I've ever dreamed
Nights are so empty since she's gone away
Clouds choke the blue skies so days turn to grey
Two hearts grow distant as one goes astray
With nothing to hold at least that's what I'm told

Secondhand Madison
03:19
|

|
Feeling sick feeling low feeling insecure
Have a smoke feed the fix maybe something more
Hold the key but you can’t seem to find the door
Another drink and you’ll fall down on the floor
Secondhand Madison, Who knows where the hell you’ve been
You still search for a home, A little place you call your own
Nights run slow in this spell, Still stuck in your private hell
Break free or drown within, Nows the chance to sink or swim
Seem so sure but unsure and your heart is torn
Still you search for a rose in a field of thorns
Kiss a bottle take a sip and your mind is worn
Maybe one maybe two or maybe three or four
So back it up and start again
Until you cannot comprehend
‘Cause the ladders tall and you can’t seem to climb
Secondhand Madison, Who knows where the hell you’ve been
You stills earch for a home, A little place you call your own
Nights run slow in this spell, Still stuck in your private hell
Break free or drown within, Nows the chance to sink or swim
Feeling sick feeling low feeling insecure
Still you search for a rose in a field of thorns
Secondhand Madison, Who knows where the hell you’ve been
You still search for a home, A little place you call your own
Nights run slow in this spell, Still stuck in your private hell
Break free or drown within, Nows the chance to sink or swim

Rollercoaster
03:34
|

|
Pick up the pieces fixing puzzles but I don't feel out of place
From top to bottom seems that I fell down but I keep up the pace
Headaches and heartbreak are just obstacles that try to block the way
It soon gets better and the time helps heal at least that what they say
Soon I will write to you another note because it's been so long
Those piercing eyes you have are beautiful just like my favorite song
The broken record's quickly on the mend and gaining back the tune
And maybe someday I'll see you
Where do I end up I don't know
Another journey's somewhere I will go
A rollercoaster ride is what I'll do
And with me I take every memory too
Pick up the pieces and the photographs which I still carry through
Look at the picture and I read the note yes I still miss you too
4000 miles is the space between a distance set so far
And still I wonder where you are
Where do I end up I don't know
Another journey's somewhere I will go
A rollercoaster ride is what I'll do
And with me I take every memory too
Pick up the pieces fixing puzzles but I don't feel out of place
From top to bottom seems that I fell down but I keep up the pace
Headaches and heartbreak are just obstacles that try to block the way
It soon gets better that's what they say

Sea Of Gold
04:27

|
Words fade away as arms start to fold
She said lets get lost in this sea of gold
Waves climb so high to drop to the floor
Lights from the roof glows on the shore
Cold November, Oh so tantalising
Rain drops flicker, Eyes so mesmerising
Breath goes astray as lips start to lock
Clouds fill the sky in this field of frost
One touch sends shivers down my spine
Just one more kiss and my nerves untwine
Cold November, Oh so tantalising
Rain drops flicker, Eyes so mesmerising
Cold November, Oh so tantalising
Rain drops flicker, Eyes so mesmerising
Cold November, Oh so tantalizing
Rain drops flicker, Eyes so mesmerising
