VERSE 1:
I found my courage in a pocket of indecency and rage
I found you on the floor in a temporary cage in a variety of ways
CHORUS:
Cut it like a well worn blade
The sides are blunted and there's nothing left to say
Peace is pending payment
Sinking in the salty sea
The grass is growing and weeds grow up round me
Peace is never banging like an air borne bomb
VERSE 2:
You escaped the crooked doorways throw the light in jagged daggers blade
You cut me to the quick in a shovel versus spade
And quite a mess was made
BRIDGE:
Banging like a world war bomb
To send you speeding back to where you're from
I made a point to write you one more song
You saw it coming, knew it for so long
You had it coming, knew it for so long
COUNTER BRIDGE:
I just want you to know
Nobody likes you and nobody ever will
CHORUS 2:
Dig in with a brand new spade
I'm digging tunnels, haven't seen the light in days
Circles spinning targets
Take you down a peg or two
And that is cause we've had it up to here with you
Peace is never banging like an air borne bomb

VERSE 1:
We're born as lost things
Nobody's looking for us
We're made from glass hands
Nobody's looking through us
The cracks in all hearts
The slivers slipping to shards
We're born as dead men
The sum on non-sequenced parts
COUNTER VERSE:
Drive back, I'm coming down the wrong way
Drive back, you're going down the wrong way home
CHORUS:
Down the fever goes but I'm so scared of going alone
The feeling grows but it's the only way I know
VERSE 2:
We're tying loose threads
Oh in a hurricane
And making loose threats
To friends and family
BRIDGE:
There is no safe way (there is no safe way)
To build a legacy
There is no safe way (there is no safe way)
Not if you're asking me
BRIDGE 2:
Take these hands and build a monument
So we remember who we are and where we came from
(repeat)

Same Old, Same Old

VERSE 1:
Take and take, push til I break
Keep me awake like nothing's at stake
Fake is fake and you're on your way
So throw me away like I feel no pain
CHORUS:
If it's what you want
It's what I will do
When you walk in I'd leave the room for you
No reasons to leave
No reasons to stay
Be reasonable for once for goodness sake
VERSE 2:
Days and days the questions remains
Start over again til I can explain
You won't change and that's such a shame
Won't even explain your reasons remain
BRIDGE 1:
An hour here is an hour there
And we'll pretend that this is fair
BRIDGE 2:
This year started with so much promise
But now it's back to the same old same old

VERSE 1:
We had so much promise did we?
Burn out bright for no one to see
You put me out and gave up the ghost
Of the feelings we fear most
Shame on you for fooling me once
And shame on me for needing your love
And one, two, three the reasons I hate
Myself more than I hate you
CHORUS:
When you said, when you said, you said we were okay
Did you mean, did you mean temporary?
When we said, when we said that our hearts beat
Beat in time as the song plays along
Take me back, take me back, way back to the first time
So I can mess around with the timeline
Stop you weaselling into my good life
As the song plays in various moods
VERSE 2:
Really now, there's nothing to say?
Except for how, you're staying away
There's nothing left, I'm packing a box
That I'll send you the bill for
The carpet's cleaned and bond's been returned
When you went back, went back on your word
You struck me out, yeah out of the life
That we built in a heartbeat
And these words spin around stuck on repeat
Repeating the words
BRIDGE:
Best friends means friends forever
But you're switching up the saying with your last endeavour
Never wanted all the drama that you're bringing with you
So I'm picking up these pieces of a puzzle I'll do alone
