Drop In The Ocean 04:52
lyrics
buy track
Drop In The Ocean It ain’t nothing, just a Drop In the ocean
 There’s too many miles Between us now Mummy and Daddy, they don't
 Try anymore
 Said they gave us everything But they don't know how It ain’t nothing, just a Hole in the ozone
 A space in the heavens Somewhere that we can go And as we get older And a little closer
 I understand even less Maybe we’ll never know What if we died in vain 
 What if we felt no pain
 What if there was someway to ease the strain Tell me who's going to take the blame Walk in the shadow, Walk through your life Voices are calling Walk through the door So hard to ignore, Even harder to forget Time it is slipping like never before What if we died in vain 
 What if we felt no pain
 What if there was someway to ease the strain Tell me who's going to take the blame It ain’t nothing, just a Drop in the ocean There’s too many miles Between us now

The Beauty Of Melancholy 06:35
lyrics

The Beauty Of Melancholy Sitting at the waters edge Drifting with the tide No one knows what lies ahead Horizon deep inside Seasons come and seasons change Years scattered by the wind When loneliness is something strange It ends and then begins For all the lost souls who disappear in the dark For all the black holes that are hidden in the park For all the white noise that is screaming in my head The beauty of melancholy Was the last thing that she said We’ve been lost and we’ve been found But we came back again Through the maze and upside down Beginning at the end And somewhere sleeping miles away The future lies in wait And everything I couldn’t say Is discarded at the gate To the winds of fate The tide is turning winds of change Are blowing through your mind And you might look the other way But you can’t undo the ties that bind And in a world where sadness reigns and speaks to the unknown we have learnt to walk these streets alone When all is said and done And there is nothing left to hide The pain dissolves, the rain comes down To wash away your pride You tunnel in the darkness digging way down deep inside Back to what we all know To that comfort way below For all the lost souls who disappear in the dark

Road To Ruin 04:22
lyrics

Road To Ruin If you see me coming You better look the other way Cause i’m my own worst enemy I leave myself in disarray My walls have ears and my words can kill My heart is made of stone Everything I touch turns to dust Welcome to my happy home I’m the tapping on the window I’m the footsteps outside your door I’m the face that you don’t quite recognise But you know you’ve seen before I’m the wind that blows the shutters wide open I’m indecision I’m black and blue So take my hand I’ll look after you As we walk down the road to ruin I live in the shadow Come out at night You might know me surely know me well A connoisseur of sarcasm and spite I have my feelers out and I know where you live No doubt we’ve met before You can’t deny that somewhere I’ve caught your eye I’m the wolf behind your door I’m the tapping on the window I’m the footsteps outside your door I’m the face that you don’t quite recognise But you know you’ve seen before I’m the wind that blows the shutters wide open I’m indecision I’m black and blue So take my hand I’ll look after you As we walk down the road to ruin Make yourself more comfortable Relax, let down your guard Cause I know every secret you keep As I peel away your facade My hands maybe cold but my heart is fire And i’ve the patience of a priest Take a seat at the table and eat Welcome to the feast So take your hands away from your eyes And look me in the face These things you see are you and me Welcome to the human race I’m the tapping on the window I’m the footsteps outside your door I’m the face that you don’t quite recognise But you know you’ve seen before I’m the wind that blows the shutters wide open I’m indecision I’m black and blue So take my hand I’ll look after you As we walk down the road to ruin

The Last Day Of The War 05:04
lyrics

The Last Day Of The War Turn off the light close the door when you leave So I can’t see anything at all It doesn’t matter anymore what you believe This is the last day of the war This is the last day of the war And I could tell you all the words you wanna hear I could tell you anything But sometimes situations aren’t what they appear Let’s see what tomorrow will bring Let’s wait and see what tomorrow will bring And it’s too late to turn it all around And it’s too far gone to make a sound Cause I loved you from the moment we met That it’s all I can say to forget The sirens call and the bombs are overhead As we all pack down for the night And I can still recall every word you said Like dreams in the fading light Is it too late to turn it all around Is it too far gone to hear the sound Cause I loved you from the moment we met You are everything to me These are unfamiliar skies I see it in your eyes But after all the smoke has cleared We’re history, mystery Is it too late to turn it all around Is it too far gone to hear the sound Cause I loved you from the moment we met

Secret Language 05:00
lyrics
buy track
Secret Language I’m traveling in a burning vehicle Hint of sulphur on my breath Misfortune scratching at the window I’m on speaking terms with death We will speak without words you and I On illegal frequencies we’re gonna fly A secret language we will learn As we watch the years burn On Tangerine Row they sell money for flowers And time just slips away The smell of gasoline and talk for hours and hours and hours and Maybe it’s better to leave it that way We will speak without words you and I On illegal frequencies we’re gonna fly A secret language we will learn As we watch the years burn And I can just float away Over crumbling spires and cathedral towers Drifting in and out of sleeplessness There is hopelessness and desire I’m running from the scene of a crime Hint of madness in my eye Some of us will still be waiting As I leave the ground and fly We will speak without words you and I On illegal frequencies we’re gonna fly A secret language we will learn As we watch the years burn Watch the years burn

The Best Of Times 05:33
lyrics
buy track
The Best Of Times Keep it close to your heart she said in a whisper Lost in her eyes he smiled then he kissed her With a ring on his finger and a chill in the air He turned and walked away and left her standing there By a streetlamp in the midnight he can still see her shadow As he walks along the waterfront in violet and indigo With the cold and the dark and the lights on the water He was from the wrong side she a fishermans daughter These days are the best of times These are the days you will never forget These they say are the best of times These are the days of your life They put out to sea, they put out to sea Adrift on the ocean, floating away They put out to sea The dream fades away, the dream fades away Like dust in the light, its there and its gone And the dream fades away Callico and candlewick night bible black Blind as the captain and deep as the sea Watching through the fish eye see them twisting and bending The waves are relentless the waves are relentless And he stretches for the fingers of the hands that are reaching The same hands that once encircled his heart And he knew in a moment they were destined to remain Adrift on the tide and never torn apart As I dive into the water I feel my spirit breathing But underneath the surface the view is decieving But how could she have known and how could he forsee These things that would entwine them and never set them free These days are the best of times These are the days you will never forget These they say are the best of times These are the days of your life These days are the best of times These are the days you will never forget These they say are the best of times These are the days of your life
