We Are Undone

The air is thick and it burns with the heat of your lies, your lies
Time slows down then it stops dead like your eyes, your eyes
The way that things used to be, you relying on me
Oh, snap yourself out of it, snap yourself out of your lies, your lies
You don’t deserve a love song
No words of love we spoke
You’ll reap this storm of love gone
So wrong, we are undone
Undone
Oh catch yourself out, you keep catching the light with your eyes, your eyes
Too stupid to see the truth here and watch you deny, you deny
Strap yourself in for the ride, ran out of places to hide
Trapped in a cage, oh you're trapped in a cage with your lies, your lies
You don’t deserve a love song
No words of love we spoke
You’ll reap this storm of love gone
So wrong, we are undone
Undone
I only wish you never knew what I wanted
My skin burns with the echo of your touch
I can’t remove the memory of that feeling
I curse myself for giving you too much
You don’t deserve a love song
No words of love we spoke
You’ll reap this storm of love gone
No words of love we spoke
You don’t deserve a love song
No words, no words
You’ll reap this storm of love gone
So wrong, we are undone
Undone

I Dare You

This summer, wish you were my lover
All day the rain soothes my daydream
This summer, I ache to bring you gifts
But every day steals more one flower
Ooooh
Ooooh
D'you never wonder if I'm breathing without you
If my heart is closer to breaking
Every night I've been thinking about you
But you're using her as your disguise
Smoothing the edges of thought
Washing down the barriers
This summer, wish your peace was shattered
The sea between us in tempest
This lover can wish you didn't matter
But behind his kiss you seek my eyes
Useless, jewelled in steady death
Whilst you lie there in her
This summer I wait alone for dark
This summer I wait alone for dark
Nights I just lie back, let my fingers slide and graze
Rough like yours might be
Keep my eyes open, watching the body you draw in your mind
Tracing it for you, gently
Drawing you here a hundred times
Useless, jewelled in steady death
While you lie there in her
My lover
My daydream
Come, I dare you
Come, come, come, I dare you
I dare you
I dare you
I dare you
I dare you
This summer, wish you were my lover
All day the rain soothes my daydream
My lover
My daydream
Come, I dare you

It's party time
The next round's mine
Ain't leaving here till I'm a millionaire
Roulette's my game
Ain't got no plan
Gonna spend my rent, my tax, my soul
It's never easy when you're down on your luck
Sometimes you win but you know it's a fluke
Spinning away
Spinning away
Spinning away
Spinning away
Spinning your way back home
The morning dawns
On the night before
The party's over, don't you know?
Such a mystery
All the things you see
The party's over, don't you know?
It's never easy when you're down on your luck
Sometimes you win but you know it's a fluke
Spinning away
Spinning away
Spinning away
Spinning away
Spinning your way back home

Don't damn a man without reason
The ropes will catch him in the end
His life float by regardless
Just one hand to count his friends
The path appears to end in darkness
He stumbles on but there's no light
All his dreams are hiding from him
In the shadows of the night
But what is happening here
A trial without a crime
There's no escaping
They're getting higher all the time
The odds against tomorrow
Today has brought this misdemeanour
His pulse is flowing to the shore
The fire's been left untamed
He can't take it anymore
But if he pulls himself together
He knows that he can't lose
He's gotta start believing
Strike a match, light the fuse
But what is happening here
A trial without a crime
There's no escaping
They're getting higher all the time
The odds against tomorrow
The odds against tomorrow
The odds against tomorrow
The odds against tomorrow
The odds against
The odds against
The odds against

Autumn

Rain again this autumn
Without promise now that destiny's sealed
Watery light can only manage half a rainbow
What treasure have I lost with you?
Is there any yet to find in her?
What treasure have I lost with you?
Is there any yet to find in her?
Rain again this autumn
Without promise now that destiny's sealed

I have to go
I have to go
Now the load I bear
Has been lightened
I have to go
I have to go
Now my eyes have been
They've been widened
Do you even
Understand why
Understand why
Understand why
I have to go, go, go, go, go
Understand why
Understand why
Understand why
I have to go, go, go, go, go
I have to go
I have to go
Now my darkest thoughts
Have been brightened
I have to go
I have to go
No matter what you say
This wrong I'm righting
Do you even
Understand why
Understand why
Understand why
I have to go, go, go, go, go
Understand why
Understand why
Understand why
I have to go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go
I have to go
I have to go
Now my self-esteem
Has been heightened
I have to go
I have to go
The noose round my neck
Has been tightened
I have to go
I have to go
Oh I have friends to meet
And they're in hiding
I have to go
I have to go
I have friends to meet
On the island
On the island
On the island
On the island

Ever feel like someone’s at your shoulder
Looking through your eyes
Don’t you feel like we are getting older
Ever wish we’d never said goodbye
Don’t you feel sometimes like you’re writing
Your life for me to read
Don’t you think I turn the page uninvited
Happy you’re with her
Sad for losing me
Used to be my past and my tomorrow
Glassy eyed, forgiving all my faults
Was it unavoidable to leave me on this shore
Take the time to think of me, if you think you have the time
Wasn’t I the one who stole the moment
Written in the book of who you are
Did you lose your courage love, the past is gone
Did you ever think we’d let it go so far
Used to be my past and my tomorrow
Glassy eyed, forgiving all my faults
Was it unavoidable to leave me on this shore
Take the time to think of me, if you think you have the time
Tied to the ending
Tied to the start
Try not to doubt me you’re tied into my heart
Try not to doubt me you’re tied into my heart
Used to be my past and my tomorrow
Glassy eyed, forgiving all my faults
Was it unavoidable to leave me on this shore
Take the time to think of me, if you think you have the time
Take the time to think of me, if you think you have the time
If you think you have the time
If you think you have the time
If you have the time
If you have the time
If you have the time
If you have the time
If you have the time
If you have the time
If you have the time
If you have the time

First Time

There’s a first time for everything
In a small town, you need to leave
Wide open sky, a wire ring
Pretend to mean forever
When you really don’t believe
And oh, I remember
Breathing in the colour of your hair
I wanted you to sign your name in blood for me
And promise me that you’d always be there
There’s a first time for everything
Stars always shine for you and me
Lost innocence, like poetry
All told, in the end, it was never meant to be
And oh, I remember
Breathing in the colour of your hair
I wanted you to sign your name in blood for me
And promise me that you’d always be there
It's all in the past
First love is not supposed to last
There’s a first time for everything
Blue never seemed so blue
All that I chose over you
Pretend to mean forever, if only it was true
And oh, I remember
Breathing in the colour of your hair
I wanted you to sign your name in blood for me
And promise me that you’d always be there
There's a first time
There's a first time
There's a first time
There's a first time
