To all the people i was once with,
who look for money where the heart should lie,
“i think you’re better off without him”
we’d be fighting ’till the day we die.
and i know you’ll think i’m lying,
but i only want what’s best for you,
could be flying off the island,
could be learning what i never knew
costs a lot of pride to live
without you anymore….woahhhhh
Found out that fate lies in the hands of each of us,
we have to shape it to the dreams that we trust,
Don’t need no reason to be alone,
won’t find a heart inside an empty home,
cos if you cannot love yourself then who will….then who will
So put your money where your mouth is,
i left mine above the hallway door,
i returned to find it missing,
now i’m living on a neighbours floor,
So i’m having to explain myself,
acting like i’ll never need your help,
i'm looking for a purer hell,
once i’ve found my own rhythm.
costs a lot of pride to live
without you anymore….woahhhhh
Found out that fate lies in the hands of each of us,
we have to shape it to the dreams of our past,
Don’t need no reason to be alone,
won’t find a heart inside an empty home,
cos if you cannot love yourself then who will….then who will
cos if you cannot love yourself then who will….then who will

Dearly Beloved

I never thought i’d see your face,
the feelings gone without a trace,
so dearly, beloved.
Although we went our different ways,
and left without a warm embrace,
so dearly, beloved.
All of the time won’t heal,
Unless you disappear,
to where the blood around your heart is all you have.
All of the time won’t heal,
Unless you disappear,
And don’t look back
And don’t look back
And don’t look back
Paint a picture, work of art,
try to mend your broken heart,
so dearly beloved.
Sensing trouble ahead, i miss you,
drifting oceans apart,
so dearly’ beloved.
We’re told that everything will happen for a reason,
and those reasons they come running back to you.
Dearly Beloved is the martyr we believe in,
Across the border where all lovers turn to fools.

Finer Things

Made my way out to meet you,
had tears in your eyes,
never thought i was worthy,
of making you cry.
oh what a mess, we’ve found ourselves in again.
In a moment of weakness,
I forgot you were cold,
too busy lining your pockets,
with company gold.
oh what a mess, i’ve found myself in again.
It’s ok, to be so wrong,
though I knew it all along,
You like the finer things in life that I ignore.
It’s ok, to be so cruel,
do whatever you have to do,
I hate the finer things in life you’re living for.
You’ve always made it look easy,
it’s how you were raised.
with a funeral plan,
instead of acting your age
oh what a mess, we’ve found ourselves in again.
Made me hide from your family,
with a shake of your head,
I put my arms on the table,
whenever we ate,
oh what a mess, we’ve found ourselves in again.
It’s ok, to be so wrong,
though I knew it all along,
You like the finer things in life that I ignore.
It’s ok, to be so cruel,
do whatever you have to do,
I hate the finer things in life you’re living for.
You’re living for x2
You like the finer things in life that I ignore.
It’s ok, to be so cruel,
it won’t stop me falling in love with you,
You are the only thing in life worth living for.
Worth living for.

I said please, i’m reeling for the second time in a week,
pray for me, i’ve gotten so used to feeling incomplete.
Been living like a blind man, who’s looking for a diamond
I no longer lead the way,
i’m a housefly that used to be a lion now,
say you don’t believe it.
Try to lead yourself from the fixation,
of finding the time, to get it right.
Try to lead yourself from the fixation,
of finding the time, to see the light,
I’ve been down on my own for too long now,
realising what I want from life,
Try to lead yourself away from the fixation,
of finding the time, to get it right
Comfort me. on a downward spiral that i have been
i find relief, in closing old doors with a skeleton key
Been living like a blind man, who’s looking for a diamond
I no longer lead the way,
i’m a housefly that used to be a lion now,
say you don’t believe it
