VERSE1
You say everything's broken and skies are grey
You're not the first person to feel that way
You say everything's right but the feeling's wrong
You're not the last person who's holding on

There's always something that you wanna change
You've gotta pick yourself up and walk away
There's never a bad time to pick a fight
Just remember your strength and face the night

CHORUS
We all get chances to
Be the first one
To light up the room
Or to trigger the gun
We all look back on the
Things that we've done
And some things that we've missed
But still we carry, we carry on

VERSE2
A little bit louder now you're out of food
You're kicking yourself, But yourself is rude
A little bit wiser now you're out of tune
Just look up at the sky and then bite the moon

You say everything's broken and skies are grey
You're not the first person to feel that way
You say everything's right but the feeling's wrong
You're not the last person who's holding on

BRIDGE
On and on and on and on and on and on and on, we go x2
(if you) Feel That Way Feel That Way then you should just say it

Car That Won't Start (You Ran Over My Heart)

Riddles (The Quick Brown Fox Jumps Over The Lazy Dog)

VERSE 1
I tried and failed to fix my
problems this year
I threw my net out wide
I ushered in fear
I spoke to people that I'd
usually avoid and told them everything 
they wanted to hear

CHORUS
another trip around the sun 
they call it new year
another reason to remember why i'm still here
at least i tried and even though it filled me with shame
i'll keep on blocking out the fear it just wasn't my year

VERSE 2
i smiled and waved and tried to
spread some cheer
there's people that i haven't seen in a year
i paid attention to the ones i should ignore
and they just filled up all my conscience with fear

New Year

VERSE1
i've got nowhere to be 
i've got nowhere to go
so just stay here with me
and we'll take it slow

CHORUS
oh we don't have to go outside 
we;ve got just what we need
you don't have to feel alone
cos we can just stay home

VERSE2
i've got no-one to meet
i've got no-one to know
so just listen to me
and we'll start a show

turn your head from the street
make your mind mellow
cos there's nothing above
and there's nothing below

CHORUS
oh we don't have to go outside 
we;ve got just what we need
you don't have to feel alone
cos we can just stay home
you don't have to feel alone
(cos we can just stay home) x2

VERSE3 
i've got nowhere to be 
i've got nowhere to go
so just stay here with me
and we'll take it slow

CHORUS
oh we don't have to go outside 
we;ve got just what we need
you don't have to feel alone
cos we can just stay home
we can just stay home.

Stay Home

CHORUS
One little match is all you need
to burn you down right to your knees
you're a
straw man, baby, you're a
straw man, baby oh

v1
everyone else is always leaning your way
but they won't listen to a word that you say
the argument is lying their in your lap
but they don't know that it's always a trap

v2
you always know just which angle to play
you take your time like we've got all day
but when the time is near you never delay
everyone knows that you'll get your way

middle 8
i tried and tried and tried to
argue that i'm still here
but all but all you see
is just another poor dear

v3 
yeah we all know that the best arguments are in vain
cos there's no way no way that you could mean that much pain
and if the timing's right you'll live to fight another day
that's just as well cos everybody wants it their way

Straw Man (One Little Match)

VERSE 1
why do people say things that they don't mean
i've been wondering since i was fifteen
thought i knew everything that i needed to
didn't know what my life was leading to

why do people buy things that they don't need
i've been wondering if it's all just greed
don't you know that you've got everything you want
only thing in the bank is your confidant

CHORUS
every time that you step outside your door
yeah your brain tells you that you want more
keep a close eye out for your rival
this is modern survival

VERSE 2
why do people go places they don't know
you could always just look at a photo
i guess they want to take their own ones
bring em home like they're good omens

why do people abuse the ones they hate
can't they just pick on someone their own weight
gotta get trained up for the title
you are your only rival

Modern Survival

VERSE
people live, people die
people act out foolish lies
time to sleep, time to wake
time to take a dance with fate
people love, people cry
people always wonder why
time to sleep, time to wake
time to take a dance with fate

CHORUS
Nobody, nobody, knows what it feels like
When in the dark, in the dark you see a light

In The Dark You See A Light

You took my memories
You stole my crutch
Took everything that I
Loved so much
In the end they're just pictures of you and I
Caught in a moment in time 

BRIDGE
I told myself that i was fine on my own
but all i really do is stay at home
you took my memories but they won't come to life
without the actors baby

Crutch

I don't wanna ever see your face again
unless it's face to face
i'm just sick and tired of the
way right now we live in separate space

even though i know you're only one click away
somehow it feels like we're just miles and miles away

I don't wanna ever see your face again
unless it's face to face
everytime i think of you 
i'm reminded by the hurdles that i face

i don't wanna ever hear your voice again
unless it's at my place
you deserve a better mic
and somewhere where your diction takes first place

even though i know you're only one click away
somehow it feels like we're just miles and miles away
even though i know you're only one click away
somehow it feels like we're just miles and miles and miles and miles away

I don't wanna ever see your face again
unless it's face to face
i'm just sick and tired of the
way right now we live in separate space

even though i know you're only one click away
somehow it feels like we're just miles and miles away
even though i know you're only one click away
somehow it feels like we're just miles and miles and miles and miles away

Face To Face (The Zoom Song)

CHORUS
i couldn't find anyone on earth
who cared enough when i said sorry
i couldn't find any place on earth
to settle down and stop my worry
so where the stars all live is where i'm heading to
so tell my mum i'll be back soon
i'm taking this to the moon

VERSE1
i've never been to space but i hear it's nice this time of year
i've got some mentos and coke doing science in your atmosphere
i've travelled all the earth and i know it's time to get out of here
i'm coming for you on a rocket with a lightning spear

VERSE2
i'm looking for a planet no-one's ever seen before
i'm looking at my phone but Google Maps won't work no more
i saw an alien he said that i should turn around
but i'm not stopping till i get my feet on solid ground

To The Moon (stonks)

(please don't make me go outside
you know the sunlight hurts my eyes
i've been living here just fine
i just wanna stay inside)x2

i've spent the last twelve months in this room
i know that's not really what normal people do
i've been watching the world pass by 
and trying not to cry
as all this time just waves and passes by

a year ago we were having fun
but then everything changed and now we're too far gone
i wanna shoot those memories straight into the sun
and pack away all these things that i should've done

if i could go back to a year ago
i'd tell those people that they're really fucking up the show
i'd paint a smile on their faces and just let them know
that they've got no idea what's coming and it's gonna snow

i've got paintings and lego and baking and cross-stitch 
but none of it matters now cos i'm raising the drawbridge
i'm too used to this and you can't get me out
just staying here and wondr'ing what else i can do without
