Lyrics:

Wipe away the black beneath my eyes
Open up the crack in the wall into another time
Walking naked past the window
Tell me where did all that shame go?
Who cares who’s looking in
Cause everyone has skin

And I was so naive to think
Your twin was roaming free
So I could leave you alone
Because it took so long to hear that you were done with me

But then I heard you
The language of your eyes

I could feel you shake before you said a single word to me
Oh, it’s alright

Oh, you were looking back, oh
Ah, I found what I need
Back, oh
Back, oh
Back, ah
Back, turn back now
Back, oh,
Back, you were looking back

You were looking back

Lyrics:

I’m sorry you don’t know who you are
You can try to take it out on me
You find it easier to speak to children
But baby I’m twenty-three

I see the vices that are running your life
Because you’ve given up on being good
I’m not naive because I’m staying true to myself
You’re cold because you know you should

(Chorus:)
So where’s your contract?
Do it for the art while you’ve been doing it all for the fame
So where’s your contract?
Trade away your dignity and hope that we’ll all do the same?
So where’s your contract?
Manage your decay by using youth with more creative brains
So where’s your contract?
Maximum hours, for minimum wage

Ooh, ooh, ooh, no it’s not okay

I’m sorry I can’t help how I feel
I don’t want it bottled up like you
’Til I feel another person
growing old inside
waiting for this girl to die
I would never survive
I would never survive if I had to do things that you do
Just to make some green and blue

(Chorus)

Ooh, ooh, ooh, no it’s not okay

And I can see
you’re making cash hand over fist from me
Can I get the same?
Working hard just for them to forget my name

In the dark each day
Cause you’re afraid of all the shit that I might just say
If you let me out
Cause I know too well what you’re about

I don’t need you - you need me
I don’t want your hand to feed me
Tired of being so obedient
to something so damn seedy

Lyrics (© @Femmepop):
I’m travelling further than you.
I’m burning brighter than you.
And nothing you can say and nothing you can do
Can change the fact. 
And nothing you can say and nothing you can do
Can ever change that.

Chorus
Tomodachi, I don’t think so.
Tomodachi, you were never were so. x 2

You never knew what it meant. x 2

Verse 2 
Discarded, your time in my life.
Rewarded, now I know what it meant.
And nothing you can say and nothing you can do
Can ever change that. 
And nothing you can say and nothing you can do
Will ever change that fact.

Chorus
Tomodachi, I don’t think so.
Tomodachi, you were never were so. x 2
You never knew what it meant. x 2

And nothing you can say and nothing you can do
Can change that fact. 
And nothing you can say and nothing you can do
Will ever change that.

Final Chorus
Tomodachi, you never were so.
Tomodachi, I don’t think so.

Lyrics:

Can you feel my heartbeat?
Underneath the moon there's another side of me
Can you feel my heartbeat?
Like a dark machine breaking through the concrete

Can you feel my heartbeat?
Can you feel my heartbeat?
Can you feel my heartbeat?
Can you feel my heart beating?

For you
I'll show you things you never knew
When the sky fades to red from blue
Just close your eyes and take my hand 

Oh,
There isn't a place I'd rather ever go
When the city lights take us deep into their glow
It's an electric heat pulsing straight through my feet

Oh,
There isn't a place I'd rather ever go
It's the future and I didn't even know
It's an electric heat pulsing straight through my feet

Can you feel, my heart still beats for you
Can you feel, my heart’s still beating for you
Can you feel, my heart still beats for you
Can you feel, my heart’s still beating for you

Can you feel my heartbeat?
Underneath the moon there's another side of me
Can you feel my heartbeat?
Like a dark machine breaking through the concrete

Lyrics (with some repetition cut out):

I won’t start anew
I want you where I am
I’ll lie on the cold hard ground if it’s with you

And I see it in your eyes you’re waiting
All your life
And I see it in your eyes you’re waiting
Waiting again for me

I won’t start anew
It’s sad but still it’s true
I want you where I am
I won’t start anew 
It’s sad but still it’s true
I’ll lie on the cold hard ground if it’s with you

Cold Hard Ground

‘Death By Deadlines’ - Ever feel like you’re stuck in a loop? A Groundhog Day scenario where you die over and over again? It’s another late night in the office; Consumed by stress, you struggle to complete on time, longing for respite at the end of it all. Make no mistake however, there is none to be found, only more pressure as the clock already ticks towards the next deadline…
