a picture of me and you hanging above the fireplace what a good situation we negotiate trying to get ahead a picture of modern youth hanging out in the old folks home it will seem less important than the circumference of my wedding ring no you never find it easy theres no way out of this now cause you're gone and no i never it easy but i know we can defeat it you found your purpose i can feel it even though it hurts a picture of perfect health hanging out for a cigarette you could pick up a day job greeting strangers from a hospital bed a picture of me and you hanging above the fireplace what a good situation we negotiate trying to get ahead you found your purpose i can feel it even though it hurts you found your purpose i can see you even though it hurts

the sun goes down the world spins round its time for us to sleep somehow we've been up all night we broke our minds but have no fear we have no care i say goodbye for now i go to sleep for sure to wake who knows the sun comes up as you to and fro and the fears i had disappear into the day don't you know your boyfriend has no life "its alright if you want me to ill keep on crying over you" don't have a breakdown nobody knows but me don't ever comedown everyone knows but you everyone knows its over now so go to sleep you'll find a way to close your eyes its over now so go to sleep you'll find a way to close your eyes

my darling oh darling confident steps move over the surface of detailed regrets making dust out of reason she stares a little longer than she ought to darling oh darling confident steps takes less than a moment to untangle the mess of the glimpse of a shadow or a thought without meaning you ought to tell anyone she saw it out of the corner of her eye and without wanting to decide if she would cry or forget about that just moments ago she was lost in moment she'd lost darling oh darling confident steps lets shake up the shaken and sleep without rest be mindful of opinions and lets stay a little longer than we ought to lets stay the rest of this night forever she saw it out of the corner of her eye and without wanting to decide if she would cry or forget about that just moments ago she was lost in moment she'd lost

Say the word and ill be ok Say nothing and I may as well keep my heart locked up In a cabin with the windows bolted shut No running water with the heater stuck on Running over all the dos and don’ts till the money runs dry we forget about this love I’m not romantic, I’m pathetic, and I’m an expert at not getting the job done Still, I think no matter what we say To each other in the middle of an argument oh It’s still a good ship, to be sailing No captain, no sails Why don’t we do it like we did before Drink ourselves stupid and be happy on the farm Because I have a short memory Kicking dust off a photo of a better me Just try and forget about it It means nothing to you Oh no, you don’t know why You feel so bad you don’t know what to do You don’t know why you know You feel so bad and lonely, you don’t what to do You can Cry if you want to It don’t matter to me Ill be there for you So you can Cry if you want to It don’t matter to me Cause ill be there for you
9.
early morning i awake in the hope that something doesn't break cause every morning i awake in the hope that something didn't break you said we be here forever instead you say we can never go back and know when we started cause going back theres always something wrong something wrong something wrong yeah dig a hole big enough and start again if we dig a hole big enough we can start again again every morning i await

Before it all falls apart She wont listen he wont understand worn out record same old song and no one sees that she is really on her own you tell yourself you would do anything before it all falls apart scared of dreaming something different and then without warning you're invisible no one sees that she is really on her own you tell yourself you would do anything before it all falls apart then it all falls apart we tell ourselves that things will never get better and we talk about how we never change like falling down with a long long way to go don't you ever let it go

I took a train Yeah I took a train To the edge Of the wharf I sat on down And started to sing I sang the chorus I sang these words I want to hold you baby I want to hold you In the morning In the night So I took a train Yeah I took a train To the edge Of the earth I saw a cloud Against the wind It was going home I want to hold you baby I wanna hold you In the morning In the night Sleeping on a bed of concrete Clouds not people watching Seashells, birdshit and painted skies
