Burn 04:42
Cry, some tears for me now, I can't believe what I see We're all hell-bent on anarchy Faith, not in a ridiculous God but in each others all we want Who can we trust anymore? Certainly not me You can cry if you want You can pull out your hair You can scream in the air Because it doesn't matter anymore Pray if you like Fall down on your knees If there was a God he wouldn't listen anyway Face, such a beautiful face, I'll trace you in my mind I will kiss those lips before we die Look, can you see the fires burn? It will soon be our turn There's nothing that we can do so close those eyes We all go down What we going to do now? As the cities turn to flames Our hearts numbed by the pain What are we going to do now? Things will only get worse Perhaps it's good that we go first...

I'm waiting for the story to start, I want to get even I'm waiting for the story to start, I want to burn all the heathens I'm waiting for all the sky to fall, time to face oblivion I'm waiting for the seas to rise and kill all our children He comes he goes he doesn't understand I'll wait until morning time to let you know He waits and breaks he keeps to himself Whatever the danger is it's left us now
3.
Close your eyes and go to sleep Now run with me through eternal fields We'll out run them yet and never yield Side by side and hand in hand we'll run away Black out the night and step into light This worlds too rough and it's hard to tell If this is paradise or hell But side by side and hand in hand we'll run away She stops and smiles and cups my face And whispers words that'll never waste Then she kisses me on and on And sings the song 'our eternal dawn' Now run with me through eternal fields We'll out run them yet and never yield Side by side and hand in hand we'll run away This worlds too rough and it's hard to tell If this is paradise or hell But side by side and hand in hand we'll run away

This should have been different but it's more or less the same I don't know how to stop the trajectory that we're flying on We should have been better We should have had commitments that we could have stuck to But now it's too late we're going to get what we deserve One more smile, it's time to face that we all will be erased One more laugh, we throw up our hands and wait for the dark We have love and we have hope Our little lives don't matter We had faith now faith has died The world grows hot and it will shatter We had all the warnings But money always dilutes our common sense We were so greedy The lucres more important that our breath
5.
I crawled up to your window pane My knuckles tapped the glass and I saw your face Do you know what time it is? It's quarter passed midnight I've got work in the morning Enough of this shit But oh the games we used to play All the love we made The promises we swore to keep With words now lost on the wind Do you really want to break my heart in two Did you really want to make me cry alone Did you really want to hurt me so much inside Ok you've won, I'm going home If she thought that was enough to make me back down Then she was in for a surprise I did my victory dance right there on the window sill Hoping it would change her mind Regretfully not... Ok you’ve won I’m going home To contemplate this great unknown Gonna cry all alone
6.
A million dreams won't make your reason see I'm bitter and I plead but you see straight through me I couldn't say you were wrong I couldn't say I was right If there's a chance you might change your mind Tonight might be the night We've got scores to settle we've got arguments to have What's the reason in living if we weren't sometimes sad? I forgive you your faults and I hope you forgive me mine Let's move this thing forward Let me kiss you goodnight

I caught a train to the West coast Where my Mother and Father were waiting for me There were more lines on their faces as they forced a smile We pulled out of the car park into the evening gloom Eyre square was busy there wasn't much room I started to daydream of you We turned on to the coast road The road that takes me back home Where my baby will be As we pass through Furbo I start to get a little nervous I light a cigarette to calm myself down This would have been easier if you had replied To all the letters I'd sent whilst inside But as each day elapsed a part of my heart died We continued on the coast road The road that takes me back home Where my baby will be I've been away for so long I don't know if you still want me You were always on my mind I've waited so long to see you counting the days almost drove me insane You were always on my mind I got dropped off at my gateway I took a deep breath then I headed on my way I opened up the door and what did I find? The arresting officer who put me inside I've been away for so long now I know that you don't want me You were always on my mind I've waited so long to see you counting the days almost drove me insane Now I see it was a waste of time
8.
I paint my face I brush my fair A face that was once beautiful looks back with despair I brace myself for the cold morning air I take myself to a place where no one cares Cos I played upon the stages, I had my name in lights Put smiles on peoples faces, made the cry at night Now I'm only killing time until the next show comes around I stare at the clock that erodes my life away I plead it to stop but with each moment I'm closer to the grave I had my part to play but now that part's gone I wish that I could stay but farewell and so long The light that caught my eye has been turned off now for good So now I'll just go... I paint my face I brush my fair A face that was once beautiful is no longer there

Willow 03:42
Oh Willow do you remember 20 years ago? We were so young back then We held hands and saw the dawn come up I wished that night would never end Time, husbands, wives, children and common sense they didn't change this This million dollar question that lies beneath us I think it will be answered soon I can see why you don't trust yourself I feel the same way too If we were to spend more time together I think it would be pretty good I take your point though it's one I struggle with But I can't deny it's truth Right now I'd like to be laid here with you That's what I want too she said If you ask me to put a name on it Well Darling I surely could not There are no words, there are no descriptions No guide book for this one So where do we go from here I really don't know Time will tell and we'll bow to it's wisdom You know how I feel anyhow
10.
I feel the warmth on my neck I touch the skin under my finger tips Caress my soul to sleep I stroke the smile forming on your lips Take me until my grave But just for the today take me far away Hold on to my heart Don’t say you can’t This is just the start So pure against all that is black The backdrop to this love is hell on earth We could sit here and waste our time Or commit for once to this white knuckle ride
11.
Home 01:42
I’ve been here for ten years It’s time to go home I don’t know who I am or this land that I roam I crossed the wildest sea For the girl that I loved I made my Mother cry She had lost her only Son to this girl that I had won But it all fades away into the past Where nothing matters anyway But I would still like to go home Will I ever go home?
12.
Why? 03:21
Why must we fight and die?
