I love this lyric.....my god I hear the crackle of lust as I smoke in the silence.......now that lyric hit me hard!   Thanx. R.

These prescriptions fill the hole in my soul
That they left when they turned my pain into gold
I go down to the late night store in the rain
I’m warm to all the hurt they caused on that TV show of shame

That’s another story
Just another complication in this loser’s game
That’s another story
They’re teaching all the hungry people how dogs behave

As predicted the pills are making me smile
Because my love is the only love that survives
At the party I’m spinning all my lines in a dream
Don’t leave me like you found me with the good time girls and my keys

That’s another story
Just another complication in this loser’s game
That’s another story
They’re teaching all the hungry people how dogs behave

And I appreciate the gift
All my friends will adore me
It’s time to exit left
I’ll be kicking and screaming
Kicking and screaming

These prescriptions fill the hole in my soul
That they left when they turned my pain into gold

That’s another story
Just another complication in this loser’s game
That’s another story
They’re teaching all the hungry people how dogs behave

Teaching all the people
They’re teaching all the people how dogs behave


How Dogs Behave

Your life broken down on the hill
Your star gave more than it got back from him
Do you still love child
Do you still hope that he’ll learn one day
His life decorated in sin
Your eyes only know where he’s been
Do you still hope child
Will sunlight shine on your single bed

But you could be here right now
Alone where the sun goes down
I could break you
You could break me anytime

Your moods always changing within
Your eyes only know where he’s been
I fell in love once
He stood and laughed as it slipped away

But you could be here right now
Alone where the sun goes down
I could break you
You could break me anytime

Your life has broken down on the hill
Your star gave me more back than him
I fell in love once
Will sunlight shine on your single bed

But you could be here right now
Alone where the sun goes down
I could break you
You could break me anytime


Anytime

See I never hoped to free
I’d settle for less and I stopped myself being me
The only way 
The only way for me

I saw you
Not looking for somebody new
My hands just gripped the sides as a told myself ‘Just be you’
So goodbye lies and welcome to the truth

I’d have frozen you out if I saw you then
I’d avoid any mention of love but something changed
The girl over there by the stairs spilling lager
Don’t pass me by

See another night of what could have been
It makes me sick to think on a birthday night going cheap
But love is free
And love is free for all

I’d have frozen you out if I saw you then
I’d avoid any mention of love but something changed
The girl over there by the stairs spilling lager
 Don’t pass me by

It’s gonna fail in the end
I’ll replace it with something else
Is it asking too much to be loved
It’s as if he don’t care up above

With ease you stand out from the easily pleased
Your head is full of wrong with a danger smile full of love
But goodbye lies and welcome to the truth
What am I what I to do

I’d have frozen you out if I saw you then
I’d avoid any mention of love but something changed
The girl by the bar with the card spilling lager
Don’t pass me by




Love Songs Make Me Sick

Heads we do it 

You always let them off in the end believing peace is just round the bend
It started way back in school. And its the same now always, Can we risk it one day
Chew down your passion, anger and rage. Draw pretty pictures trapped in a cage
And yeah you’d like to let it all out. Like a human always There’ll be thunder one day (You say to me)
Heads we do it tails we lose. I’m bored of walking in someone else’s shoes
heads we do it tails we lose so bad always. Why is it always?
And on the times we talk from the heart, Yeah our emotions drawn to the dark, but in the spirit of past decades, There’ll be thunder one day, Its a risk I insist we stay (may chance decide)

Instead we’re trying to decide to have a go or let our story slide
So heads we do it tails we lose so bad, sometimes I see a rebel in your eyes

Heads We Do It

Outside is Compromise  

Its time to make up your mind, you should do it.
Be brave now
Jacked a late night bus in the rain to see her with him, at the window at their table but I own you now, remind her you’re the one, the words you always hear are

you should fantasize outside is compromise i will help you I’m your demon inside

                Its time to make up your mind, don’t be stupid, lets go now.
A hero you will become, break up the wedding, you were so down, here we go now, can you prove me wrong, Temptation always wins, I will feed you all my ego

You should fantasize outside is compromise i will help you I’m your demon inside
Soon you’ll be walking like me you’ll be who all the lads want to be I will help you i’m your demon inside

Like the devil on your shoulder helping ya say what you wanna say
Every move should be much bolder now reminding ya life’s only here today
 

You should fantasize outside is compromise i will help you I’m your demon inside
Soon you’ll be walking like me you’re there who all the lads want to be I will help you i’m your demon inside

I’m your demon inside x 4


Outside Is Compromise

Fierce

Do I look the other way or do I stare down the clown. You take my breath away or it it asthma. 
I'm standing on my own watching friday night all around. 

But in the city we're treated badly what are we waiting for?

You're Fierce, You're going to be hard to please. You're Fierce, the birds always want the bees. You're fierce someone else will want you tonight

My heart is on the pull but my brain has shut down. I naswer all your questions with a strange sound. 
I'm standing on my own watching friday night all around. 

But in the city we're treated badly what are we waiting for?

You're Fierce, You're going to be hard to please. You're Fierce, the birds always want the bees. You're fierce someone else will want you tonight

But its a shame that I lacked the words to impress but you always seem so less than impressed
We're caught a cliche in sexual decline but you always thought we were wasting our time.

Fierce

Pleased to be here

You’re making me ill again, my self confidence down the drain
Everyday thats taken, and you won’t make amends, its fatal story, trying to be your friend, or at least they pretend

But I hadn’t realized, you spend your life in disguise
Every doubt that haunts you and won’t go away, I know that you are projecting and making me feel your pain, what can i say

CH - All of your words show up your hurt, like held down fireworks are you afraid to be grateful and just pleased to be here. 

You’re doing that thing again, like I don’t already know I’m sane
Every snidey smile hides your monsters and pride, every new phone and trainers, numbing your pain inside. oh shine a light

CH - All of your words show up your hurt, like glued down fireworks are you ashamed to be hopeful and just pleased to be here. (pleased to be here x 3)

Shine a light, its not a fight, had a dream about this liquid picture from that moment i was hooked .
Shine a light, its not a fight, had a dream that everyone woke up and then didn’t give a fuck
Shine a light, its not fight, so take a bite.


Pleased To Be Here

Stay off monday and tell some lies 
Its been an awful year 
We really tried
Dry your eyes now lets see a smile 
If things don't go your way 
Get high

And if you want it I'll supply 
I do not need a reason why
Love it when you look so surprised 
It's true

Stay down holiday waits for you 
In this town waiting in line
For a distant holiday 
We'd all forgotten
Stay down holiday waits for you 
In this town waiting in line 
For a distant holiday we'd all forgotten

If we're not forever and time's the knife 
I'm sure I'll know your face 
In the aftershow
Dry your eyes now its what you do 
If things don't go your way 
Get through

And if you want it I'll supply
I do not need a reason why
Love it when you look so surprised 
It's true it's true

Stay down holiday waits for you 
In this town waiting in line 
For a distant holiday we'd all forgotten
Stay down holiday waits for you in this town
Waiting in line for a distant holiday 
We'd all forgotten

Stay down 
Stay down with me
We need a little more time

Distant Holiday

Rockers

It’s smashed to pieces
But it beats on
At the heart of every song
There’s a broken one
Ambition loves you
Wrapped in its in clothes
We sigh at the lack of demand 
For those late-night shows

That’s why I hid your cigarettes behind my back 
‘cause I wanted to kiss you
But we just did what we always do

What you doing at 4am
 I sometimes picture you deciding
‘bout the rockers in late night dives 
Trying to disguise how you feel inside

I count my blessings
You play the fools
We don’t know how she gets her power 
In king size skins and junk food

You know that she’s unwinnable. 
Another girl Just a flash of a silhouette 
Of tits on a bedroom wall

What you doing at 4am 
I sometimes picture you deciding
‘bout the rockers in late night dives 
Trying to disguise how you feel inside

Are you tripping on the lights again
Are  you turning on the world again
Or are you scared
That you’ll never fall in love again


Rockers

Advice

My love 
Summer has gone and I feel alright
The hurt and shame have disappeared 
My mother said 
Hearts are like parachutes 
They don’t work unless they’re open
But now I think that love is here

So if being myself and not somebody else wasn’t wrong 
Then she would want to see me
I took your advice and I laid every vice at her door 
And she don’t want to see me at all

My love 
Appear like a heroine at my natural disasters
Rescue me from bad ideas
My god 
I hear the crackle of lust as I smoke in the silence
Oh light of you replace my fear

So if being myself and not somebody else wasn’t wrong 
Then she would want to see me
I took your advice and I laid every vice at her door 
And she don’t want to see me at all
