Curl Up
02:18
|
|||
Go figure out
Because I do not want to
There’s only this moment
There was nothing before
There’s nothing after
Go figure it out
Was it all worth it?
All of that joy
Well now it’s just dust
On our old fireplace
Curl up
And be done
Curl up
And be done
I can stretch time
There’s only now
Curl up
And be done

I Was Thinking About You
02:48
|
|||
I was thinking about you
When I shouldn’t have been thinking about you
I shouldn’t have been thinking about you
I was thinking about you
I know that you’re gone
When you shouldn’t have been gone
When you shouldn’t have been gone
Oh, you shouldn’t have been gone
It’s just a stupid feeling
That you shouldn’t be hearing
There’s nothing to be fearing
A stupid heart that can’t forget
I found a bright new penny
I found a hole in the ground
I found my own big mouth
That let things out
I got things wrong
When I shouldn’t have been getting things wrong
Oh, I shouldn’t have been getting things wrong
I was getting things wrong
I’m gonna get over you
When I shouldn’t be getting over you
Oh, I shouldn’t be getting over you
I’m gonna get over you
I was thinking about you
I was thinking about you
I was thinking about you
I was thinking about you
Someone’s holding you tight
Someone’s saying goodnight
Someone’s stroking your head
And saying that it’s alright

We were hopeless
We were pointless
We were unfeasible
We were together
Because she held the coffee pot
Because I liked my coffee hot
Because I wore a Lou reed t-shirt
Because Lou wasn’t dead
Because I was all bruised
Because she didn’t notice
Because she was confused
Because I almost cared
Because we both liked drinking
At three in the morning
Because we thought that kissing
Would stop it getting boring
Because her skinny legs
Were stronger than they looked
Because we chased a river
Because we shared a book
Because she wasn’t equipped
For me falling apart
We had the wrong size plasters
For dried up broken hearts
Because she was too kind
And I wasn’t’ kind at all
Because we made mistakes
Because we were impossible
Because we were impossible

I Am The Noise
03:41
|
|||
You wanted me quiet
So much quieter than before
I wanted to be quieter more
I want to be silent
I want no one to hear
I want to disappear
Am I the noise?
I am the noise
Am I the noise?
I am the noise
The static on the wire
The ringing in your ears
The banging on your wall
The salt in your tears
Am I the noise?
I am the noise
So hard to let it die
To let it be
I am exhausting you
You are exhausting me
It’s too loud
In an outside myself
I saw myself with you
And nobody else
Am I the noise?
I am the noise
Am I the noise?
I am the noise
The static on the wire
The ringing in your ears
The banging on your wall
The salt in your tears
Am I the noise?
I am the noise

I Want To Get Drunk
04:02
|
|||
I want to get drunk
Right now
With or without you
Tomorrow too
I want to get drunk
I want to forget
Or remember new things
That I can forget
It’s a big warm wave
That carries me
Surrounds me
And holds me down
It’s a good thing
A right thing
It smothers me
And wipes me out
It’s a beautiful lake
I can dive in
I can float in
Or drown
I want to let go
There’s a calmness
To surrender
It’s like love
I want to get drunk
Quickly and gently
It fits like a glove
Feels a bit like love
It’s a mountain
It’s stronger
And kinder
Than me
It wants me
It helps me
It knows the place I want to be
It’s a wind
It’s a tree
It’s a river
And it’s in me
It’s the stars above
It reminds me of love
It’s a big warm wave
That carries me

Oh, I tried

and I tried
and I tried
and I tried
and I failed

I love you, I miss you, come back
I want you, I’m lonely, come back
I lost you, I lied too, come back
I see you in nightmares, come back
I love you, I miss you, come back
I’ll change soon, I’ll work hard, come back
I’ll pray you forgive me, come back
I wish you’d come home soon, come back
I’m the one who broke and smashed your heart
I’m the one who’ll stroke and mend your heart
Wrap up tight, curl up small, take heart
Be my friend, lover, trust me with your heart
I’m restless, I’m hurting, come back
But I’m better, I’m working, come back
I’m tired of pretending
There’s point in me begging
I just want you near me, come back
I will be a good drug for your heart
I will be a blanket for your heart
I will glue the pieces when you fall apart
Be my friend, lover, trust me with your heart
I’m the one who broke and smashed your heart
I’m the one who stroke and mend your heart
Wrap up tight, curl up small, take heart
Be my friend, lover, trust me with your heart

Dinosaur Plate
02:41
|
|||
I got the sofa and car
You got the moon and the stars
I got the Isle of Wight tray
You got the dinosaur plate
You got the best cooking pan
You cook better than I ever can
Making food with the spicy taste
Put his food on the dinosaur plate
Stegosaurus
Pterodactyl
Tyrannosaurus Rex
Diplodocus
Brontosaurus
Which one’s the best
What goes around
The dinosaurs go round the dinosaur plate
What on earth was on your mind?
Why do you keep wondering why?
Do you sleep by the smoke or a sea?
Does your train rattle past me?
What flavour’s on your tongue?
What makes you come undone?
I don’t want no hate
I don’t want no dinosaur plate
Stegosaurus
Pterodactyl
Tyrannosaurus Rex
Diplodocus
Brontosaurus
Which one’s the best
What goes around
The dinosaurs go round the dinosaur plate
Tell them
Stegosaurus
Pterodactyl
Tyrannosaurus
Ichthyosaurus
Diplodocus
Brontosaurus
Triceratops
Iguanodon

The Joint Account
03:47
|
|||
I took a bus and a train
Some ibuprofen
Took the long way home then closed the joint account
I bucked to and throw
I held on and let go
Closed my eyes then closed the joint account
What will I do with all these photographs?
I took the records from the box
Then I collapsed the box
Then I collapsed and dreamt that dream again
I put a hook on the wall
Then a painting on a hook
I read a short book then I closed the joint account
What will I do with all these photographs?

Kissing a Cloud
04:21
|
|||
I was never married
I was not in love
It was something I was dreaming of
I was never safe
I was not complete
It was a lie I used to believe
If you can’t hold it
It’s not real
Or place it in a box
It’s not real
Or lock it with a key
It’s not real
Never let it go
I never really held her
I was kissing a cloud
It was just an idea I sort of wondered about
I was sleeping
I wasn’t there
I stared too hard and it vanished in the air
It was beautiful
But not real
Cause if it’s beautiful
It’s not real
I’ll put under my pillow
To make it real
Never let it go

A Girl That I'm Seeing
03:02
|
|||
I tripped up and fell
But she caught me stopped me reeling
She’s just a girl that I’m seeing
There were scars on my heart
But her fingers started healing
She’s just a girl that I’m seeing
Don’t call her girlfriend
She don’t call me boyfriend
We might plan the weekend
But never the week after
It might not be love
But I fucking love the feeling
She’s just a girl that I’m seeing
There’s broken on the streets
Like the hearts of human beings
And I can’t believe just what I’m seeing
Eyes big and wide
That I think might just know me
I’m just a drunk and I am lonely
We can just pretend
Make the days end with wine and cigarette ends
Something more than friends
I don’t want to stop
But our hearts might soon be bleeding
She’s just a girl that I’m seeing
I think it might be love
So why might I be leaving
She’s just a girl that I’m seeing

Wrap Yourself Around Me
03:05
|
|||
I sit still
I sit still
I sit still
And just stare
You’ve not seen the best of me
I’ll make it all up to you tenfold
When I better
When I get well
Wrap yourself around me
I think
One two three four times
Maybe this one will stick
You light up my face
With your face
And that’s all of it
I just see the dark without you
I don’t ever laugh without you
I don’t want to be without you
Without you
Wrap yourself around me
