Chasing the sun 02:46
lyrics
I'm still chasing the sun, I'll still love everyone, you'll never change that about me, I'm here driving along, where'd it all go wrong? I don't know but he still shines on me. I'm still chasing the sun, I got some music on, the roof is down and the wind's blowing through my soul, The road is dark up ahead, tonight I could be dead, I had a heart but you left it an empty hole. And now you're through, you backed the wrong horse and your choice is haunting you, When I get through, you won't recognise me I'll be somebody new.

In time 04:54
lyrics
I'm standing here right before your eyes, hoping on some level you realise, that if you look into my eyes, you will see my soul inside it's yours. I don't have a beating heart to give you, sure don't feel like a place to live in, someone borrowed and broke it down, I'm still counting on it coming around again, in time... In time, all these cuts heal over, be mine, I want you there when I get older, to write our stories from today, would you forgive me my mistakes? Would you take me on as a broken man? I promise I'll do anything I can, to be just who deserves you, cos I'm here to fight this through to the end. I don't care where you have been before, all that matters is now and where we are, it's true we all have a past, but all I want is for this to last and last and last and last, last.

I stand alone 04:36
lyrics
Young Mr. Jones you, stole my seat again, always seemed to beat me just about to anything, there was a time I'd just lie here for your tongue, as you'd separate me from the heard you, control freaks son. Well thanks to you my friend you made me who I am, I've turned a corner now that I have learned to stand alone. I stand alone, and now I'm sick of all the times you'd make me, be the same as you to break me down, Old Mrs. Rees you brought me to my knees, fought so hard to keep me there like a lepers colony, I tried at times to make you happy but it was tough, when anything I ever did was never good enough.

Shadows of the past 03:06
lyrics
I can feel the shadows of the past bearing down, I look around, I can't imagine how it felt the last breath they found, he shot down... A thousand people in a line, frightened to cry, inside they cried, a child looks up to the sky; "where's my God? I don't feel him by my side" I can see the people walking on the frozen ground, when I close my eyes, in bare feet and tattered rags afraid to make a sound, waiting on the empires demise, It never felt real to me, but then it never killed me, felt so bad yet I could go, turn the page then close the book.

The chocolate boy and the slapper 03:09
lyrics
As happy as can be, you got nothing to prove to me, but I know how you really feel inside, doing things you'll regret someday, you wanna badly be somebody, the only person you can really be is yourself. So stop trying to be somebody else, it's not as important to be cool as it is to enjoy yourself, so take a look into yourself... When the chocolate boy and the slapper get together, you can plainly see that they're no good for each other, they're just taking them on an ego trip around the world. You drink your can of beer, your face a picture of misery, as you spend your time out on the streets, well if that's what it's like to fit in, chuck your ego in the bin, cos there's a place that you're accepted for who you are.

Feelings in my head that I can't find 03:47
lyrics
I've been writing words all my life, some of which are true, and some stolen from songs I don't believe, In my hand I have a knife, threatening to run me through, if you should ever leave. I'm more scared now than I've ever been, that I'll earn your hate over time, I know now, I could never be, if I woke up one day and you weren't mine. I've thoughts in my head which I can't explain, I think for the first time in my life, on my own I'd be dead, no good to anything, I can't make sense of why I need you so much. These words all rhyme, they all describe, things that swim around inside my mind, but it seems there's other words, which I seek but never see, feelings in my head that I can't find.

My girl 02:01
lyrics
I want you to understand, I need you to hold my hand, I need you to suck me off, ah you do it so well. Be my girl, stay my girl, I need my girl, love my girl This ain't the most touching of songs, I wrote it while I was angry, boy do I miss your blow jobs, ah you do it so well.

Phoenix rising 05:31
lyrics
It's getting harder, sticking with this, when you seem sure it's gonna fail. There's never a winner, here between us, when black and white slides into grey. I'm getting tired, I'm backing down now, our eyes are red and words are thrown, I don't have the answers, and I don't know how, our tears blind the love we've shown. As we tear ourselves apart, there goes another new start, but the phoenix will rise and we will learn, just to hear her beating heart. Pick me up off the ground, lose myself in the sound, and I know for sure I can make it.

Dusty village 03:57
lyrics
Sat here in a dusty village, all my luck has just run out, oh dear what can I do? It's dirty in dusty village, please come back and clean it out, cos I can't see what I'm walking into. What do you expect from me? Cos I can't be what I can't see, so paint me a picture in my brain, and I'll do the best I can, the best I can. Sat here in a dusty village, as the cobwebs settle down, on the mess I made of us, as we move from dusty village, all this mess wont follow, we could buy a dustpan and brush, How would you feel about starting new? New home, new jobs, new me and you, It'll be as good as we always knew it could.

Burn you 04:07
lyrics
Cleanse ourselves of everything that's gone before, it's what we have to do if this is to get off the floor, obviously we have both been hurt before, as history repeats itself now all the more. Feels like I've been here before, but I can't live behind these doors, or die by what has gone before. I don't wanna hurt you, I don't wanna push you away, I'll learn so I don't burn you. Falling down again how will I ever learn? Play with fire, I should know by now that I'll get burned, if I trust you with my life will you take me far from here? And if the sun don't seem to shine will you fight through with me?

All those years ago 03:29
lyrics
It's been a while in coming, but at least now it's here, so let's all pack up our things and head, to where we went that year. I wonder if it's all still there, the way I remember it all those years, ago. I never wanted to leave, the place I hold so deep, where every sunset is the best you've ever seen, you can't follow it. Now I can see that it's al still there, memories remain after all these years... After all these years away.

Witch in a woman's clothing 03:20
lyrics
Giving up without a fight, standing down when you are right, boy you're just a shadow of what you were before, you've gone and thrown it all away, regret it now? you will someday, boy who are ya trying to kid, in denying it? We all can see, she's eating you away, she don't let you breathe, constricts you like a snake, she's a witch in a woman's clothing. I seen you in my dreams today, I gave you a punch in the face, it's the least you deserve for the way you've treated me, I brought you in and let you stay, when you felt you had no family, you spent the whole night up, just talking to me. She's a witch in a woman's clothing, she's a bitch and the devil knows it.

Malta 03:21
lyrics
A million words can't begin to say, the way it made me feel inside, I can't paint a picture to tell this tale only god knows how hard I've tried, the sun soaks up all fear and stress, that my tired and weary body holds, I don't give away much but I confess this is the only place I feel at home. I wanna be in Malta, where I need to be Malta, I wanna breathe in Malta, I wanna die in Malta, where the people are great your boss don't mind if you're late, that's where I wanna be, in Malta. As I walk down the street, with the thoughts in my mind on a roll, a burger and a drink in my hand waiting for the sun to take it's toll, my memory of the sunrise beyond the ocean miles away, as a boat floats by on the calmest waves on a love affairs last day. Leaning on a balcony edge as I look out to sea, feels like looking into a mirror, cos all I see is me, I look up to the sky, see the sunset, it's a beautiful sight, I try and ask myself why I'll never forget, dream of you every night, Don't feel like I belong here, just doesn't feel right, can barely bring myself to call home here, wish I was in Malta tonight.

Big brother 04:39
lyrics
Chips in cars, so they know everywhere that I go, What's mine is ours, you can take me to be if you don't like you Big brother's watching so don't say a word cos they'll take it and hold it against you, We're living in a CCTV world where anything you say can be used against you. Freedom of speech, all our rights are a joke with no punchline, but they're out of reach, they don't live here yet they make the rules that we live by.

Someday, somewhere 05:09
lyrics
I look in your eyes every day, I don't wanna change you, I just want you to realise, that I'm trying to figure out a way, to explain without hurting you, that we need to make a compromise. It's you and me against the world, so let's go another round, we will always pull through, somehow... somehow we run, somehow we fly, somehow we know, just what's worth fighting for, shame we don't give, it's a shame how we die, it's a shame we don't know, just where we're looking for, but somehow, we'll get there, someday, somewhere. Now firstly I don't want you to think, that I don't trust you, and you've got a reason not to trust in me, I know how you feel when your heart sinks, cos I've felt that way too, thinking those same silly things.
