People seem to cold to cruel nowadays Given to lie hide stowaways Strictly me mine in all our ways Such are these days. We've worshipped self through millennia A desensitised melancholia Broadcast on Sony Bravia Hallelujah, hallelujah We're born much to late Born into hate Slow deaths life's fate We're subject to ancient crimes Numb to these modern times Where do we go to now from here Where's there to go? Lovers seem selfish to unkind Hurtful jealous, so tightly wound Me myself I narcissiseptic minds These ties that bind Born much to late...

small town, small time, paradigm surreal view, the real thing, something to sing i'm no-one, I'm nobody, you never heard of me it's a quiet life, mediocre, simpler and it's essentially, meant to be it's essentially, something to see i've seen you i've seen her, seem older it's a short song for a short span, attention and it's essentially, something to see it's essentially meant to be now everytime we dissapear, is everytime, it's everytime it's a slow choice, a slow while, my turnstyle it's a long wait, such a long queue, i miss you

Say could you, free a little mercy, endear a brother here, forgive me my apathy, well aware I've got to share. So would you, caress me with tenderness, tears of joy no no no fears, I'm living when I'm giving, more alive if we survive. So where I've been now, when vanity killed my charity now. May I say, touch my heart with so much, appease this soul to please, create here a listening ear, wider eyes and hands that rise. Seen where I've been now, as vanity killed my charity now. I hope you understand? I hope you understand, when one is our sum. No one gets left behind.

Oh To Change 04:54
oh to change, enlightening yet no-one wants to see things unseen until now oh the nerve, am i the total of the things they says of me waiting while watching time, pass me by, slipping away waiting while watching time oh to feel, on your terms in your own time we'll meet think of your favourite things, re-released, given wings those things unseen until now, things undreamed until now this good thing, we possess, is the choice, so decide, i made up my mind o.k. wasted time, the mindless things i used to get me free i wouldn't touch those things, my good friend, why go there i wouldn't touch those things

In Time 03:28
well she's much like this old house there's this room that's been closed doors stay locked curtains are drawn that voice those sounds so long gone she's seen wondering the hall searching forlorn's long lost key how can she live, how to survive without as much, could she open wide the doorway, see shedding light inside tiring of the darkness in time, lives again, in time, love again and yes history's are haunting as ghosts inside stone cold walls she feels sick of living scared never venture where she never dares see through these windows, daylight promise of spring sunshine we leaving sadness, why linger there go let in fresh air, now breathe
