Waiting for the Sun this will be an uncertain time for us my love I can hear the echo of your voice in my head singing my love I can see your face there in my hands my love I have been blessed by your grace and care my love singing my love there's a place for us sitting here waiting for the sun and it calls me back into the safe arms that I know for every step you're further away from me my love I grow more unsteady on my feet my love singing my love now we're waiting for the sun
My Happiness I see your shadow on the street now I hear you push through the rusty gate click up your heals on the concrete waiting for a knock coming way to late it seems an age since I've seen you countdown as the weeks trickle into days so you come in and put your bags down I know there's something in the air how can I do this to you right now if you're over there when I need you here my happiness is slowly creeping back now you're at home if it ever starts sinking in it must be when you pack up and go it seems an age since I've seen you countdown as the weeks trickle into days I hope that time hasn't changed you all I really want is for you to stay I know I know I know what is inside
The Metre blow the candles out to raise to the night let all the tension out you've been wound up so tight it's a tender trap to plan ahead all the time if you measure the world by what you leave behind welcome to the saving grace welcome to the saving grace there's a sunset on the road reappearing as we go keep the glass topped up it's not over just yet pull off the social bluff celebrate your success turn the sunlight out to find a place in the shade if you measure the world by the mark that you make welcome to the saving grace welcome to the saving grace there's a sunset on the road reappearing as we go
Like a Dog in all that he takes in all that he shows the higher the stakes the lower the blows and all the mistakes that he's ever known whatever it takes he'll be stealing the show now he nervously shakes as we rattle his stage but he's happy to be stuck back in his halcyon days now we're trying hard to reconcile a history of shame but he reinforced the barriers that keep it the same if you treat me like a dog and keep me locked in a cage I'm not relaxed or comfortable I'm aggravation and shame but it's a fine fine time for the people in the lucky land if you treat me like a dog and keep me locked in a cage I'm not relaxed or comfortable I'm aggravation and rage
Odyssey #5 (take 4) welcome to the new suburban fables dressed up like a tomb inside a cradle if you're paying peanuts you get monkeys better save that silly money for junkets
Up & Down & Back Again come and rescue me from in the water deep careful now don't loose your aim the road ahead is clear again I haven't found it yet you drift away so slow in the ebb and flow so I landed on my feet the steadiness is bittersweet it feels the same when you're pushed out of the way and into the crush in all the hidden pleasures you find in what you're looking for I hope that you remember that pride comes before a fall I can barley see up and don and back again despite what you believe I keep away from trouble if who I am today's a sign of where I'm going I'm ready to embrace recreate the scene of everywhere you've been overcome the dreaded curse a symptom of the universe it feels the same when you're pushed out and away and into the crush I can barley see up and down and back again despite what you believe I keep away from trouble if who I am today's a sign of where I'm going I'm ready to embrace if everybody knows just who you are when you walk on role becomes a major part have you ever attempted to be yourself when everybody wants you to be someone else up and down and back again going up and down and back again
My Kind of Scene Tell me where I'm supposed to begin an unhappy life working some kind of dead end job for everything you thought you had has gone from worse to bad lean to the side whisper it quiet the end is in sight working all night around the clock for everything you that you had has gone from worse to bad but it's not my kinda scene oh yeah footprints on the other side remind me where I've been oh yeah I'll watch from the other side tell me where I'm supposed to begin move out of sight and onto some life I'm dreaming of for everything you thought you had has gone from worse to bad so I'll just wait and watch the wheels while you're turning back but it's not my kinda scene oh yeah footprints on the other side remind me where I've been oh yeah I'll watch from the other side pulls me over and drags me under pulls me over and it drags me under alright now alright now
These Days it's coming round again the slowly creeping hand of time and its command soon enough it comes and settles in its place its shadow in my face puts pressure in my day this life well its slipping right through my hands these days turned out nothing like I had planned it's coming round again the slowly creeping hand of time and its demands it settles in its place its shadow in my face undignified and lame this life well its slipping right though my hands these days turned out nothing like I had planned control well its slipping right through my hands these days turned out nothing like I had planned soon enough it comes to tie us down
We Should be Together Now what are you looking for this time around might need something to bring you to ground everything turning me inside and out what are you looking for this time around it's coming in and over it's waiting at your shoulder you can see we should be together now wait for me I'm pulling it together now what are you looking for this time around just keep telling what you have found all of this turning me upside down what are you looking for this time around
Thrilloilogy for every story gone untold there's a secret that dissolves so many pieces still unsolved you're not quite who you think you are can see the symptoms from afar I'm hosing down your shooting star there you go again to fall waiting on a friend to call if you wait I'm gonna drive it home kiss you every time the rain appear sometimes we wish for far away but something always makes me stay far to strong a bond to try and break you know exactly where you've been outshined by every other beam there you go again to fall waiting on a friend to call if you wait I'm gonna drive it home kiss you every time the rain appear I'm feeling richer I'm feeling taller I feel like everytime I try to fit the I try to fit the picture I've got to keep up with the others looking for whatever we were never to discover now you're ringing out slowly like cathedral bells and you'd sleep through heaven just to get to hell now you drop away slowly like the autumn leaves but you loose your color when you hit the street
Whatever Makes You Happy if we never make it back to how far we've come along this way we search around for solid ground that will help to carry us away if the memories I left throw the light that helps to guide you through we trickle down to our goodbyes but a part of me will always stay with you what we've spoken over time never broken or compromised dream on together leaning against each other however it happens I hope it's whatever makes you happy
