Dead of Night

Dying lights in the dead of the night
They're drifting off as my thoughts all do the same
Like the dreams of a fever that scream in the dark
All too far away, too far away to chase
In the dead of night our heart starts to appear
Heated by the hands we hold in our own
Just the smallest glimpse of life far from here
I won't let it disappear
And time will melt away from here
Tumbling snow by the road leads the way
Rest your head and wait for another day
Do you think you will miss it all? I'm missing it now
Not as much as I've been missing every day
In the dead of night our heart starts to appear
Beating faster than we've ever heard before
Just the smallest glimpse of life far from here
I won't let it disappear
And time will melt away from here
Leave it all, Leave it all, Leave it all
Take the fall, take the fall, take the fall
Leave it all, Leave it all, Leave it all
Take the fall, take the fall, take the fall
In the dead of night our heart starts to appear
Hearing nothing of the shit that we've been told
Just the smallest glimpse of life far from here
I won't let it disappear
And time will melt away from here
I won't let it disappear
And time will melt away from here

Who's the Fool?

All the liars are filing into lines
Just to show what they know
Laughing, crying but you're carried to the bank
What d'ya know?
Way to go
So who's the fool?
When your fools rule, just
Shake, shake, shake on the floor if you really want to
A cheap song, a cheap dance, a cheap life, a cheapskate's view
Shake, shake, shake on the floor if you really want to
Just know that she won't dance like you think she should
Queens of jungles, they tiptoe one by one
It's the same old shit, but she sees through it
Catching mirrors now, we're dropping from our branch
And I can't get a grip, one more hypocrite
So who's the fool?
We're fools for you, now
Shake, shake, shake on the floor if you really want to
A cheap song, a cheap dance, a cheap life, a cheapskate's view
Shake, shake, shake on the floor if you really want to
Just know that she won't dance like you think she should
Hey, you, you can swing from a tree, but can you dance for me?
Hey, you, you can swing, from a tree, but can you dance?
Hey, you, you can swing from a tree, but can you dance for me?
Hey, you, you can swing, from a tree, but can you dance?
Hey, you, you can swing from a tree, but can you dance for me?
Hey, you, you can swing, from a tree, but can you dance?
Hey, you, you can swing from a tree, but can you dance for me?
Hey, you, you can swing, from a tree, and
Shake, shake, shake on the floor if you really want to
A cheap song, a cheap dance, a cheap life, a cheapskate's view
Shake, shake, shake on the floor if you really want to
Just know that she won't dance like you think she should, yeah
Shake, shake, shake on the floor if you really want to
The primal urge of something stuck in you, so
Shake, shake, shake on the floor if you really want to
Just know that she won't dance like you think she should, yeah
Know that she won't dance like you want her to

Arm and Chest and Head

Take all that you see, the sea is calling me
Buy yourself a drink, I'll get mine when I sink
Don't wait for goodbyes, it's not worth it anymore
Don't try call me back, I'm lost far from shore
You're not all I've got
But I've not got much
You're not all I've got
But I've not got much
Waves catch my feet, dragging until they bleed
The gulls screech, they know I'll go down to the depths below
So get out of my mind, it's not working anymore
Get out of my heart, I can't tread anymore
You're not all I've got
But I've not got much
You're not all I've got
But I've not got much
I can't catch a breath, I'm still not myself
No I can't a breath, I'm still not myself
So I'll be an arm, you'll be a chest
We'll never fall in love, we'll just be like this
'cause an arm doesn't hurt, and a chest only beats
We'll keep our own hearts, and we'll never bleed
We'll never bleed
We'll never bleed
We'll never bleed

Take your call from earth and come down just to see yourself land
Speak the words that only you know and I won't understand
'cause this is hard enough as it is without you acting like you care
I have walked this path but I wasn't really there
Well tonight we'll fight our way through the beating of a drum
I left my head in the sea but my heart's in the sun
Don't look for me, I'm lost but I will find myself
Don't look for you, these words they are for someone else
Don't look for me, I'm lost but I will find myself
Don't look for you, these words they are for someone else
I am just a spinning wheel on a trailer of glass
So cough me up and spit me out and leave me like you leave the past
Well tonight we'll fight our way through the beating of a drum
I can't find my feet but i can sure as hell run
Don't look for me, I'm lost but I will find myself
Don't look for you, these words they are for someone else
Don't look for me, I'm lost but I will find myself
Don't look for you, these words they are for someone else

Sleepy Eyes

Im heading back
Across the river to The American dream
Of T.V lies and radio din
I do believe I'll fit right in
And I'm climbing every hill I see
Just looking for some poetry
But the wind it gets so strong up there
Blows all my words into thin air
It's getting dark out here
I've nowhere to go
Maybe this is the place
I call home
Yoohoo, sleepy eyes
Yoohoo, time to rise
Yoohoo, sleepy eyes
Time to rise
Rise and shine
I'm floating down the river stream
I slip into that same old dream
The one where I am still a child
Just let me close my eyes a while
And I'm flicking through maps in my brain
Old ink seeps through the thinning page
And marks a map on somewhere new
I'm leaving now but not with you
Yoohoo, sleepy eyes
Yoohoo, time to rise
Yoohoo, sleepy eyes
Time to rise
Rise and shine
I'm heading back
Across the river to The American Dream
Of vacant eyes and practised grins
Of cheap disguise and plastic skin
Computer spies and broadcast sin
Suits and ties tabloid spin
We're getting high and getting thin
And I do believe I'll fit right in

Helpless Hand

I found you on the ground, you made no sound
And I had to keep my head from spinning, spinning, spinning all around
Threw a fraying blanket, wrapped around you, a pillow stone to help you sleep
But it feels nothing like a human touch and nothing like a chest to beat
Darling, flick the light
The dark is outside
The dark is outside
Well you found me and I've nothing you should expect
'Cause finding me and sleeping here's like swimming, swimming, swimming to a wreck
Tried to leave a scrawl of sentiment but the ink ran out
So uselessly I'll sit beside you, uselessly I'll watch you breathe
Darling, flick the light
The dark is outside
The dark is outside
It's all that I can do
The dark is outside
The dark is outside
Half a heart's enough to break, I've seen those eyes in mirrors from the past
And half a life's enough to know your clawing grip is too stretched out to last
Spent the best part of a year steeped in adholescent doubt
Which sticks and soon rots away any sense of self you once held on to
But now no one's coming in
And the dark is outside
The dark is outside
So, darling, rest your eyes
The dark is outside
The dark is outside
But you're falling under, falling under now
You're falling under, falling under now
You're falling under, falling under now
You're falling under, falling under now
They won't stop pushing you out
So hold this helpless hand
They won't stop pushing you out
Until you're gone
They won't stop pushing you out
So hold this helpless hand
They won't stop pushing you out
Until you're gone
