Dirty Little Lies
04:41
|
|||
Tear tracks on my pillow, you’ve been talking in your sleep
Blurred lines in the mirror, there are secrets that you keep
You think I can’t see what we’ve become
You think I don’t know what you have done
You better stop better stop before I see the truth in your eyes
Better stop better stop with your dirty little lies
You better stop better stop before I see the truth in your eyes
Better stop better stop with your dirty dirty little lies
Question marks on my face, the rumour mill’s pinned you down
She’s got you in her grips, the talks all over the town
You think that I can’t see what we’ve become
You think that I don’t know what you have done

Shame
04:48

Pasted your face in his place last night
Don't look at me that way yeah I know it's not right
I got shame oh I got shame
Called out your name in his place last night
Don't tell me its wrong yeah I know it's not right
I got shame oh I got shame
I'm all to blame, it happened again, I got shame
Woke up this morning on the wrong side of town
Picked up this monkey now I can't put it down
I got shame oh I got shame
Whiskey on my breath and yesterday's clothes
Lies on my tongue oh you know how it goes
I got shame, oh I got shame
I'm all to blame, it happened again, I got shame
I got shame, oh yeah I got shame. Do dootin do do doo do do I got shame
I'm all to blame, it happened again I got shame
Drifting through life with this broken down soul
Bleeding out pain like my heart’s got a hole
I've got shame, Oh I’ve got shame
Weary of the minefield of lies and deception
Wondering if I'll ever find the path to redemption
I got shame, Oh I got shame
I'm all to blame, it happened again, I got shame

Paper Lanterns
04:12
|
|||
Everybody needs to have their moment in the sun
You feel the heat, take the applause and then you’re done
Don’t be afraid when your light fades
You must remember how far you’ve come
Echoes of your former glory flicker in the glow
You falter now with fiery grace, a paper lantern in the snow
Everybody needs to feel the wind upon their face
You breathe it in, air fills your lungs like an embrace
You don’t have long the storm is too strong
It takes you over when you end the race
A moment in time, you promise you’re mine
You take me dancing under cloudless skies

Get Ready for the Fight
02:46
|
|||
Argue in the day time, party through the night
Raise that bottle to your lips, and get ready for the fight
Turn the radio up to drown out the shouting
Ain’t nobody need to listen to your mouthing
Drums and bass kick in and so do you
Tomorrow we’ll all be black ‘n blue
You're getting into your stride now, just settling in,
Your house is your castle yeah you're the King
Power is your drug, adrenaline through your veins
You can't wait for the hit again
Oh you’re the star of the show
Take another shot there’s no telling how far you’ll go

Tangerine Jeans
02:56
|

I met a man, he was playing guitar
He had a wink and a smile for every girl in the bar
He wore a hat and a vest you could see he had style
The dimple in his cheek made the whole place sigh
But the best thing of all, if you know what I mean
Was the way that he wore his Tangerine Jeans
(Tangerine Jeans) Oh Tangerine Jeans
Baby the man knows what he’s doing
When he’s wearing his Tangerine Jeans
He leaned on the bar, checked his teeth in the glass
He had a twinkle in his eye oh you knew he had class
He walked with a swagger yeah he knew how to move
You could tell just by looking he had nothing to prove
But the best thing of all, if you know what I mean
Was the way that he wore his Tangerine Jeans
He sang a song for the crowd, and he strummed on his gat
He arched a perfect eyebrow he was such a cool cat
He caught an eye or two you knew he’d have his pick
If you wanted a piece you’d have to get in quick
And the best thing of all, if you know what I mean
Was the way that he wore his Tangerine Jeans
And the best thing of all, yeah you know what I mean
Was the way that he wore his Tangerine Jeans

He's No Soldier
05:10

He’s no soldier won’t bear no arms
He’s no fighter won’t do no harm
So they put him in jail, tied him to the rail, post no bail
They put him in jail, tied him to the rail, post no bail
Lived the wrong life for his time
Loved the wrong kind for days gone by
So they put him jail, tied him to the rail, post no bail
They put him in jail, tied him to the rail, post no bail
Don’t get too bold, do what you’re told
Toe the line and you’ll be fine
You’re no soldier don’t bear no arms
You’re no fighter don’t do no harm
Or they’ll put you in jail, tie you to the rail, post no bail
They’ll put you in jail, tie you to the rail

Desire
04:18
|

If you dig down deep, nothing’s as it seems it’s dangerous
Scratch away the thin veneer to reveal
A soul that’s full of longing and it’s dangerous
Desire it is coming for you, Desire oh desire
Desire it will tear you in two, Desire oh desire
Mediocrity will eventually grind you down
That protective shell of normality it’s gone
It’s gone and now it’s dangerous
You can’t fight the feeling it’s been missing for too long
And now it takes you over
It will take your heart, it will break it apart and leave you believing
That you’re in your right mind when you’re out of your mind
And oh it’s dangerous

Back on the Road
03:56
|
|||
Bustling along in the city street
Or rambling down a country lane, it’s all the same
Kicking that stone gotta keep it rolling
Don’t stop now gonna keep on moving, that’s the game
(Cos I’ve been) Back on the road for a while again
Tryna find something make me smile again
Back on the road, back on the road my friend
Yes I’ve been back on the road for a while again
Tryna find something make me feel alive again
Back on the road, back on the road my friend
Wind in my hair and sun on my face
No need to hurry I can pick my own pace, get out of the race
Singing along and tapping my feet
Turn the radio up till I’m feeling the beat, yeah life can be sweet
but then I’m ...
Dootin dootin doo dootin do do Dootin dootin doo
Dootin do do doo doo doo

We Gotta Help Ourselves
03:26
|
|||
Revolution can come quietly sometimes, creeping up on you from behind
You don’t have to be waving a flag to make a difference to your life
We gotta help ourselves (we gotta help ourselves)
We gotta heal ourselves (we gotta heal ourselves)
We gonna save the world (we’re gonna save the world)
We gotta choose ourselves (we gotta choose ourselves)
There’s nothing left to lose
We gotta help ourselves (we gotta help ourselves)
Standing still in the surge of a crowd is not an easy thing to do
Holding firm onto what you believe until the tide turns with you
