If I'm Lost
03:40
|
|||
All I've known
I've been taught
By those who have the most to lose
They're afraid of the truth
History may record
But people can erase
The truth from time
As memories fade
If I'm lost
I'll find my way home
Yes I will
You got no hold on me no more
Away with your guiltiness and fear
If I'm lost
I'll find my way home
Drifting along
With my head in the clouds
Don't know how long
Until I'm coming down
Until I'm coming down
Don't need no two-faced passengers on this trip
I've got to know who I'm dealing with
Don't need no two-faced passengers on this trip
I've got to know who I'm dealing with
If I'm lost
I'll find my way home

Three Little Words
03:44
|

Three little words
I never heard
You never told me
That you loved me
I never felt we were secure
With no surprise
Today you left me
But now that you're gone
So long
I can see what was wrong
Went on too long
So long
For one reason or another
Three little words
I never said
I never told you
That you that I loved you
I never felt
We were secure
With no surprise today
I left you
Three little words
Now that you're gone
So long
I can see what was wrong
Went on too long
So long
For one reason or another
Three little words
I never heard
You never told me
That you loved me
I never felt we were secure
With no surprise today I left you
You fall into a break-up makeup
Trying to get the hurt to stop
I think you're fucking mixed up, mixed up
Don't you think you've had enough?
Three little words
Three little words
I never said
I never told you
That you that I loved you
I never felt
We were secure
With no surprise today
You left me
Three little words

I Know You Do
03:49

Forget your
I don't remember
I know you do
I know you do
You say you're in the dark
You haven't a clue
I know you do
I know you do

Easy Come
03:36
|

Easy come, and easy passed me by
She said that she was gonna suck me dry
She said this from the corner of her mouth
This is the beginning of the end my friend
Now can you tell me where I've been?
This is just a morning stretch she said
I haven't even warmed up yet
Take your shot and never let it be said
This is the beginning of the end my friend
Now can you tell me where I've been
And if you could point me in the right direction
I'll find my way from here
Easy come, and easy go
She told and showed me things didn't know
She said this from the corner of her mouth
This is the beginning of the end my friend
Now can you tell me where I've been?
And if you could point me in the right direction
I'll find my way from here

Inside Outside Is Quite
03:27
|
|||
I've no interest in your fancy dress
In this charade you portray as the normal way
What's good for the herds following sheepily
Doesn't necessarily mean it's right for me
I look to my heart to see what it says
As that instantly overrules
Direct your intentions
Step into the flow
And go where you're meant to go
Inside, outside is quite
Do you remember all that you learned at school?
Close your eyes and you're there
If this is all that they had to teach us
Small wonder we're ill-prepared
They never said
Be careful now with your fortunes
Be careful now with your fame
They never said
The riches this world boasts about
Can never be retained
Inside, outside is quite
See now as you are opening doors
That were previously closed before
Because you were too shy or asleep at the time
Opportunites passed you by
Inside, outside is quite

Hero
03:01
|
|||
I find a hero
Down the bottom of a bottle
A warm glow
And I walk with a swagger
I have a little toke
Maybe drop a yoke
Sometimes I don't know
How I get home at all
I find a hero
Down the bottom of a bottle
A warm glow
And I walk with a swagger
I have a little joke
Maybe drop a yoke
Sometimes I don't know
How I get home at all
I'm so happy
I could scream
Everybody wants
A part of me
They're laughing
They're talking
They're joking
They're mocking
Sometimes I don't know
I don't know at all
I said I find a hero
Down the bottom of a bottle
A warm glow
And I walk with a swagger
I have a little toke
Maybe drop a yoke
Sometimes I don't know
How I get home at all
I'm so happy
I could scream
Everybody wants
A part of me
They're laughing
They're talking
They're joking
They're mocking
Sometimes I don't know
I don't know at all

What's it all about?
Nobody seems to know
I don't
I don't know
But I'm trying
To pick some sense
Out of nonsense
Looking for some answers
Is this it?
Or are we just passing through
Ooh ooh, oh yeah
But I'm trying
To pick some sense
Out of nonsense
Looking for some answers
Every day I tell you
It's much the same
All I do is face
The same old questions again
And again
What's it all about?
Nobody seems to know
I don't
I don't know
But I'm trying
To pick some sense
Out of nonsense

Enuff's Enuff
02:55
|
|||
They must be laughing at you
They must be laughing at me
They're putting taxes on taxes
And saying that there's no money left
Robbing us blind
Then spending on government jets
But it's nothing new
The same song just a different tune
Because some things need saying
Over and over and over again
Who are the people crying
For more, more, and more
The same people are saying
Enough's enough, enough
How has it come to this
Was it something that we missed
They put a needle in the middle
And they claimed it cost so many millions
Think of all the ways
That money could be better spent
Think of all the ways
That money could be better spent
Because it's nothing new
The same song just a different tune
But some things need saying
Over and over and over again
Who are the people crying
For more, more, and more
The same people are saying
Enough's enough, enough
They must be laughing at you
They must be laughing at me
They must be laughing at you
They must be laughing at me
Who are the people crying
For more, more, and more
The same people are saying
Enough's enough, enough

Outta My Head
04:54
|
|||
They came in the evening rain
Soaked to the skin with positivity
Go flush it down the drain
It doesn't really matter to me
The moon was high above my head
So why do you look over there
Instead of listening to me?
Where's your humble float
In these bad seas?
You know I can't
You know I just can't
I can't get you outta my head
While you sit there and laugh
Telling me this conversation is daft
Where's your life raft
In these troubled waters
Not everything is great
Because life is good to me these days
How is yours?
Did you get what you bargained for
You know I can't
You know I just can't
I can't get you outta my head
Back then we knew when and how
For I have got what I wanted now
For I've got mine
And it took a long long time
And now I'm feeling fine
But it won't be long for your next climb
On the ladder to my brain
You know I can't
You know I just can't
I can't get you outta my head

Together (band ver)
04:05
|
|||
In life, complications thrive
On my friends and me
And we've got to stay alive musically
Because times are hard I know
We've got to flow together
Together, yeah
Sometimes you may ask yourself
Why the fuck am I here?
But you got to realize
You were meant to be there
Because times are hard I know
We gotta show we're strong together
Together, yeah
You can't say for sure
And be certain
The strangest things
Have a habit of happening
In this day as we grow old
The world is dying
As new generations unfold
Hear them crying
Polluting is a sin
Oh the children
Make this world a better place
In life, complications thrive
On my friends and me
And we've got to stay alive musically
Because times are hard I know
We've got to flow together
Together, yeah

Bullshit
03:29
|
|||
We don't need this bullshit
Talking 'bout the land
That you're living in
As if you own it
We're only here for a while
can take nothing with you
But your soul to the other side
We don't need this
No, we don't, no we don't
Bullshit
No, we don't, no we don't
You work yourself to death
Because you're slaving
For the wealth that controls you
We're only here for a while
can take nothing with you
But your soul to the other side
We don't need this
We're only here for a while
We don't need this
No, we don't, no we don't
