I’ve been watching you lately
And nobody else
Can quite say the words you said to me
I don’t help myself

Maybe I was foolish to think that I would never care
But the thoughts you put inside my head invited me
When I knew I should have just stayed clear

With no curses either side
I can hardly speak
And the way you moved up close to me
Made my heart fall weak

Maybe it was foolish in thinking I would never care
But the thoughts you put inside my head invited me
When I knew I should have just stayed clear
Didn’t I just know this
And I never really had a doubt
But the words you put inside my mouth inviting you
When I knew I should have just stayed out


And we wonder
What it takes to make it all work out 
But I didn’t know how
And under
The illusion that I’m leading but I’m losing 
And you tell me this now?
It’s so teasing when you please me 
Don’t deceive me as I know now that it’s no guarantee 
And no contest to what was, what will be
But darling now the future will never see


And I never thought I could
Never knew I would
Be so tired of this
And life never felt so good
An outlook so new
Clear horizons in sight

What You Don't Know

I needed some enticing
Grab my hand and show me what it’s for
A motivation to enlighten
Then find you standing right outside my door

And you know I tried
Chasing the lights to which I couldn’t find
But I dropped my hat racing after the highs
Thought waves ran flat to the sound of sighs

I thought I would want my love?
I vowed I should need my love

I could have had it but I’m dreaming
So wake me up and let this ship set sail
It’s the inevitable screaming
Through my head and right onto the nail

It was not enough
To hold the cards but not pull off the bluff
Falling short of the mark been set
I’d been caught in my plan to get
To you...

I thought I would want my love?
I’d hoped I could feel
I vowed I should need my love
On the back of a deal

Sleepy Squeeze

Jezebel

Lyrics by Mark Blackford.
Mothers helper keeps you warm
numbs you from the pain
Makes it feel good
But sunshine turns to rain
today is all gone,
And nothing left to give
An empty little bedsit
The only way to live.
But its too late to say goodbye, to see yourself, to hear them cry
You can’t turn back the wounds of time, what’s done is done and don’t ask why.
Emily can you recall,
 you grew up so fast didn’t care what they said
Oh Emily why’d’ you have to go
There’s no turning back now no matter what you say


Emily

LYRICS:
Down, down down it didn't exist, I confused hunger with lovesick.
Got pulled up by a pint on a hazy night but got dragged back down in hindsight.
Suck it up they said to me there's plenty more fish in this bottle,
so I drowned my lungs with cigarettes and got fucked on the fact I'm lonely.

Down down down it this vodka this dream cos there's so much left here to drink, I hope this scar don't pull apart because blood don't look so good on me 
and Ripped jeans.

I drank hard like a demon, but I'm used to it,
with all the faux pas of a free man, who didn't know to quit.
I drank hard like a demon, who would've thought,
that what I built to be giant, would be left so small.

Oh my God I drink to forget, I love leaving cigarette stains on my twin sized bed, still I'm singing.
