Oblivion
02:44
|
|||
Sister, won't you show me the way
Sister, won't you pray
Next stop: oblivion
Sister, won't you wait
Nothing else blows the pain away
So I chose this
With time, you'll see I'm right
With time, you'll cry
Sister, take me to the light
Sister, it's time
Nothing else blows the pain away
So I chose this
Punk, the one thing that blows the pain away

*love not included
03:33

There was a child
Who lived on Cliffe Lane
There was a time that was enough
Then as he grew
His world fell apart
That was the point when I met you
So you stood me up
And you let me down
Just like the rest
Playing with my mind
First you breathe me in
Then you spit me out
Always the same
That's what I think about love*
I switched off hope
Straightened the circle
There was a time I was enough
You softened my core
And I wanted more
A mirage of home in your arms
*love not included

River Phoenix
03:13
|

I wanna live in the sun, like River Phoenix
I wanna die young, like River
Don't wanna save the world, like River Phoenix
Just wanna be loved by girls, like River
Sorry for being me
My ambition brings me misery
Do you read me?
Do you really see?
Sometimes, I think of death in the night
Though I know it's such a waste of life
Does the world need me
If I just add to greed?
I wanna live in the sun, like River Phoenix
I wanna die young, like River
Don't wanna save the world, like River Phoenix
Just wanna be loved by girls, forever

Halos are overrated
Hate every woman I ever dated
Beside me, as you reside in history
It's all too plastic for me
It's all too plastic for me
Somewhere alien to reality
Is where you hid yourself from me
It's just a reverse fantasy
It's all too plastic for me
It's all too plastic for me

Lost in Dystopia
02:34
|
|||
She made my world colourless, now I just wander Earth
She tried to kill my passion
As I walk this wasteland, won't be looking for another her
I'm just so lost in Dystopia
I'm just so lost in Dystopia
I'm just so lost
This is the part of the story where I really need it to turn around
But nothing's coming to save me
I see the sunset and wish for the answers to be found
I'm just so lost in Dystopia
I'm just so lost in Dystopia
I'm just so lost

Ride the Styx
03:27
|
|||
Wish I could forget how good that first hit felt
Darkest secret is I wish I was someone else
I was thinking we could try and go get some help
Addicts always avoid taking blame themselves
Don't you ride the Styx
Never gonna kick this habit by ourselves
Dragon chasin' ain't a recipe for health
Don't you ride the Styx
Some things are better left as fantasy

No Such Thing
04:06
|

Poem on my wrist
Smudged and faded
Alice in delirium
Another one I hated
Oestrogen, testosterone and glue
Emptiness, self-doubt and now, you
Was always chasing that fleeting joy
Running from that sinking feeling
She asked “Are you for real, boy?
Or do you still think there's no such thing?”
Put to the test
Tired and jaded
Alice through the tinted glass
It was long enough I waited
“Do you still think there's no such thing?”

Inverse Paradise
02:36
|
|||
Cruising in ruins
Keep your heart intact
Enter the beehive
And watch your mood ring turn to black
Into the annex
Her, minus the smile
It's just a vortex
When she takes a sip from the vial
Colour me, colour me in
Ruined, in cruise
The glass slipper cracks
Into the bloodstream
With your mood ring fixed to black
Colour me, colour me in

Lenore
04:06
|
|||
You're in the news tonight
Never one to stray
I long to reunite
and I now know a way
Only a gunshot, only a gunshot away
Only a gunshot, only a gunshot away
Only a wrong turn from having a whole new fate
Only a gunshot, only a gunshot away
You were stolen that winter night
It eclipsed what I knew as pain
Things will never be alright
But I'll be with you again
Only a gunshot, only a gunshot away
Only a gunshot, only a gunshot away
Only a wrong turn from having a whole new fate
Only a gunshot, only a gunshot away

Distress Signal
03:09
|
|||
My baby's pregnant, it's not mine
Love is a scam, it's a lie
Caught in a tailspin, by design
Once again, I turn to the sky
Throw me a lifeline
Pass me anything
That can stop me drifting out to sea
Hear my distress call
Heed my distraught voice
Dial six nine two nine nine three
At the beginning, it's all smiles
Just you give it a while
Throw me a lifeline
Pass me anything
That can stop me drifting out to sea
Hear my distress call
Heed my distraught voice
Dial six nine two nine nine three
