Maybe Tomorrow
03:26

Post up a notice
The moment that your heart leaves this town
Ooh ooh ooh
Distinguished opinions
For ghosts and collectors to clamour around
Ooh ooh ooh
Maybe tomorrow you get to be just what you want
Maybe tomorrow everything will be like you thought
When you’re putting out fires
Is that match in your pocket one of your own?
Ooh ooh ooh
Maybe tomorrow you get to be just what you want
Maybe tomorrow everything will be like you thought
Little by little, dreams fall ashes drifting down to the ground
Watching them spinning, you don’t make a sound
Maybe tomorrow you get to be just what you want
Maybe tomorrow everything will be like you thought

Hypnotised by a mirror
Hung on a crown
Swap your flag for surgical gown
Your present fear is most certainly justified
Your presence here feels incredibly dignified
Cut out of a cloth, from which they don’t make two
Try not to act surprised, when it comes down on you
Hypnotised by a mirror
Hung on a crown
Swap your flag for surgical gown
Oh to be wonderful like the ocean view
Not to be one to fool like you’re supposed to do
Messiahs on patent screens disconnect the ends
Star signs fill their sleeves so silence can’t condemn
Hypnotised by a mirror
Hung on a crown
Swap your flag for surgical gown
In dreams the words appear so free
Judgement from this eternity
Pushed and contorted to fit the mould
Despairing of the truth that you have been sold
Hypnotised by a mirror
Hung on a crown
Swap your flag for surgical gown

This Is What You Do
04:31

There's no stopping now
This is what you do
Can't run away anyhow
This is what you do
Swallow in admission against the undertow
Digest the daily dosage so the saints don't know
Overcompensate for natures misdirection
Exchange of promises provides fleeting redemption
There's no stopping now
This is what you do
Can't run away anyhow
This is what you do
Digress from registration with the lost and found
Pattern recognition leads the newly crowned
Cut cornered puzzle pieces looking for a home
Colliding angels ‘n demons until you're alone
There's no stopping now
This is what you do
Can't run away anyhow
This is what you do
Ignite then extinguish
Control then relinquish
There's no stopping now
This is what you do
Can't run away anyhow
This is what you do

Hours
03:58

Memories moving through the ether
Getting absorbed by your bones
Been waiting here around the corner
Til it hits you won’t be coming home
Saying nothing lasts forever
Grates like nails because it’s true
Remove the name from off the letters
Heart held together with drips of superglue
It’s been hours since I’ve been missing you
Didn’t need to count the flowers to know that it’s true
Time spent waiting out the days
Time spent waiting out the days
Moments overcome with sinking
Making mornings hard to bear
Tried so hard with not forgetting
Looking for distractions so not to stare
It’s been hours since I’ve been missing you
Didn’t need to count the flowers to know that it’s true
Time spent waiting out the days
Time spent waiting out the days
Realise you’ve reached an end
Accommodating foes and friends
Make a way to find a light
Even if good judgement
Deserts time after time
It’s been hours since I’ve been missing you
Didn’t need to count the flowers to know that it’s true
Time spent waiting out the days
Time spent waiting out the days

Dreaming
02:35
|
|
||
Tonight these walls want to sleep
This heart could use a little rest
Time to give in
Eyes closed instead
Waiting for the sun to hide
There’s nothing left to be achieved
Don’t worry now
You can just breath
Dreaming your life away
12 months till the window gleams
When winter rolls into Spring
Wish for today
Farewell it seems
Dreaming your life away

Live That Way
03:07
|
|

A line of stomach bands
For scorched earth policy
Seeking warmth in science
And technology
Free fall philosophy
From the top of the mountain
Where you gonna land
After the counting
Who taught you to live that way
Keep digging the hole keep digging
Try living with what you’re thinking
You’re the captain and the ship is sinking
Keep digging the hole keep digging
Na na nanana
Who taught you to live that way
Never thought that you’d see the day

Instructions
02:51
|
|
||
Nothing is new under the sun
Under the moon or under your ceiling
When it’s all said and done
It shouldn’t be so revealing
Did you read the instructions for this life?
To find out how it works
Take a look you might find
The precedent ain’t a secret
Ignorance might be blind
The consequence is only regret
Did you read the instructions for this life?
To find out how it works
When will we ever learn
What is won, what is earned
Understanding feels so strange
There is nothing that can’t be rearranged
Did you read the instructions for this life?
To find out how it works

Analysing expectations
May well be the death of me
Constant cryptic explanations
Accumulate to form your new apology
Limitless charming destruction
Loses its sparkle over time
Dust gathering on this discussion
Just like the questions answered only in your mind
Don’t call to tell me that you’re lonely
Don’t call to tell me you still care
Don’t call to tell me that you’re lonely
I just need to know you’re not there any more
Getting used to obsolescence
Isn’t difficult to do
Take note for future point of reference
Everything means nothing the more it means to you
Now I’m stuck here doing time (doing time)
Never thought you’d be tongue tied (be tongue tied)
Go find your corner I’ll find mine
Sleep in the shadow of your lies

Always Tomorrow

Lyrics Kurt Bloch
I did the same thing again
I started running again
I ran away I gave up
I can't get it I can't quit it
I am wrong again
I ruined everything again
I let them all down again
I ran away I gave up
I can't get it I can't quit it
I am wrong again
There's always tomorrow
There's always tomorrow
There's always tomorrow
I ruined everything again
I let them all down again
I ran away I gave up
I can't get it I can't quit it
I am wrong again
There's always tomorrow
There's always tomorrow
There's always tomorrow
