Yellow Alert (Intro)
01:08

Don't let me feed you those lines
Cause you have heard enough
And if you don't shut me up
Then you will find it tough
Don't let me become the issue
I know you're better than that
Separate entirely before it
You know you're better than that
Because I came from them
I'll blame it all on them
Don't let me close I swear
It will be the last thing you do

Lack Of Input
02:44

Forever a slave
Forever a slave
My hands are tied
There's nothing I can do
I try to lie but the truth seeps through
I tried to make you a fool
But I'm a fool for you
I'll break the mould from which I'm drawn, yeah
Turn back the dial
Turn back the dial
The lack of input has made this exchange vile
Forever a slave
Forever a slave
All deals are dealt with dirty hands
I throw my stone to see where it will land
Turn back the dial
Turn back the dial
The lack of input has made this exchange vile
Forever
I'll play, I'll play with broken hands

Sunday Funday
02:43
|

There are so many people
Who seem to have nothing to do
Does anybody have a clue?
Sunday night, is there nowhere better to be?
You knew the answer when you fired off the question at me
Let’s spend a night at the Waverley
So you take pills for your head
Because you’re stuck there in your bed
I say it’s all I like
and it has been for all my life
and I say it all the time, yeah
And I say it all the time
There are so few places
Where you can even go
But “it’s a great little town”, don’t you know?
Bored to death, surely this isn’t it
Does this not bother you one little bit?
End up in chancers, wake up feeling shit
So I take pills for my head
Because I’m stuck here in my bed
I say it’s all I like
and it has been for all my life
and I say it all the time
Waverley Fucking B

Empty Feeling
03:21
|
|||
You may have found me ignorant and crass,
But being that selfish was never gonna last
I’m back to caring if you’re down with sharing,
‘Cause I don’t know better
The empty feeling it brings me down to earth,
Yeah, other people bring me validation and my sense of self-worth
It’s gone too far, no
So I let them know
The year begins as I know it will end,
Full of high hopes but ending up alone instead, in my head,
It’s taking over now
It’s taking over
Well, the pressure’s building and I don’t know how to stop,
That waterfall I pictured has trickled to just a drop
The empty feeling is back and it’s taking over
Taking over
Taking over
Taking over
I said it’s taking over

Broken English
03:50

Conscious,
It’s that feeling again no less,
Put it out of mind
I’ve fallen foul of your clever ruse,
I can’t continue if I can’t choose
And if you stay, you’ll get a glimpse of what I could be,
But you’ll quickly tire of sitting with me
I’m sitting alone
Your dress,
Each patch from a different decade,
Why don’t you go back there too?
I’ve seen the other side,
So let me save you the fuel
It’s all I can do
I’ve been a victim of my poor choice
I’ve lost my words, I’ve lost my voice
And if you stay, you’ll get a glimpse of what I could be,
But you’ll quickly tire of sitting with me
Cause I’m bitter and spiteful
Maybe it’s best if you don’t stay a while
This baggage weighs a ton
Just know that I am done
Just know that I am done
And when you see
The other side of me
And that there isn’t more
You’ll see me collapse,
You’ll see me collapse,
You’ll watch the moon stand on its head

Seasons
05:26

Deep down inside, there is somebody
Beneath the disguise, trapped within his
Shell he lies, content to base his life around lies
It’s the same thing every year
You have respect from all your peers, but you and I collide
I see it time and time again before my eyes
Wish I could cave in and pretend I don’t know
I wish that I could let it go
but I’m tired of you leaving, each time worse than the last
Can't you stay in the past?
Stay away
Not today
Not today
I saw your smile
I guess it had been a while
But I wasn’t over her or over it
And I told you that I wasn’t cool with it
I think you're full of shit and doesn't that make you hurt a little bit?
I’d love to see you go but you’re too scared to leave
It’s funny- I wonder if you know or if you just don’t believe
Wish I could cave in and pretend I don’t know
Wish that I could let it go
I’m tired of you leaving, each time worse than the last
Can’t you stay in the past?
Your part time charade is no good to me
Here for a season but what about the other three?
I’ll make it change, I’ll cut the ties to your web of lies
My conscience tells me "fuck the past"
because the good times went so fast
But this is here and now, consider this my vow,
consider this my vow, why don’t you stay away
Stay away
Stay away
Stay away, why don’t you
Stay away
Stay away
Leave me out
