So here’s the best of what I was And here’s the last of what I want So who can run on lapse? From here to kerosene and back It’s a subtle tact Cos for once I’m feeling fine Drink kerosene and laugh And rejoice in all we left behind You said, You said, You said you still miss me I won't, I won't I won't let this mess with my head I said, I said, I said why don't you just drop I said why don't you just drop dead? So here’s my attempt at playing cards And I’m all alone in crashing cars We’re still smiling when it’s on And I can’t be the only one To save some common sense For the feelings that I vent I’m home at last We drink kerosene and laugh You said, You said, You said you still miss me I won't, I won't I won't let this mess with my head I said, I said, I said why don't you just drop I said why don't you just drop dead? You said, You said, You said you still miss me I won't, I won't I won't let this mess with my head I said, I said, I said why don't you just drop I said why don't you just drop dead?

Satellite 03:17
Long lost friend Where have you been? I could write a novel On things being alright in the end I'm sick, become an eyesore In the same breath I'd loose the battle But win the war Oh how did it come to this? I break more than I give Think of all the sunsets You never told me different You only showed me imprints Of the faces I once cared for, Oh my hollow heart beats I guess I’ve already gone this far I couldn’t say it any faster Put up with me Watch me become an addiction I just want some love Corrupted radio transmission From a satellite That I set alight I told you Won't you come back soon? Panicked on the outside I'm a lover on the inside I would trade it all for A weekend at the seaside In the things I say and do And all the places I've been to Who’s got time for me now? I only stopped to kiss you Oh wherever my heart may be That’s where you'll find me Think of all the heartbreak Think of all the mistakes You know I still drink Shots in the dark like you I guess I’ve already gone this far I couldn’t say it any faster Put up with me Watch me become an addiction I just want some love Corrupted radio transmission From a satellite That I set alight I told you Won't you come back soon? Until “best friend’s” halts all conversation Would you call me up? Would you throw me away? Like hugs mid day to save communication Until making mistakes becomes a desperation When you walk out on me for someone more Will you wish you'd said a little less Than you did before? Put up with me Watch me become an addiction I just want some love Corrupted radio transmission From a satellite That I set alight I told you Won't you come back soon?

Things change every now and then Well whatever happened to the life I led In my own way I miss the good old days And the puzzles of people who never stayed Now watch me touch the morning clouds Until all the ocean comes pouring down We'll reach out in the rain for feather coats And the hats we can wear in our paper boats Growing up with my head in the sky, my back to the wall and feet in line, I knew that the day would come in time, I just thought that I was too young to die, Too young to die and too old to live, Too beautiful to keep and too drunk to give, I've outgrown the way you saw me, And nowadays I'm far from lonely, I still live for a life I'll never have, I want times and people to just hold fast, We'll reach out in the rain for feather coats, And the hats we can wear in our paper boats, Growing up with a wasted youth when you've got nothing to do, And nothing to loose, and if you choose truth over lies, Flash forward to 9 years time when we're both hopelessly. Enslaved in the assembly line,

Tequila 03:20
Young, tanned, bottle blonde Got a tattoo on her 16th birthday describes herself as confident and flirty no wonder all the boys assume she's dirty Oh, oh, oh Nancy you come alive when you're dancing breaking the hearts of the ravers ending the night on the pavement Short skirt, high heels nothing helps you feel like tequila the colour of the disco's getting clearer the boys all try to get a little nearer Oh, oh, oh Nancy you come alive when you're dancing breaking the hearts of the ravers ending the night on the pavement Morning, Bright light Your make up looked better in the strobe light Your false nails are broken from the cat fight You're sick of telling everyone you're alright Oh, oh, oh Nancy you come alive when you're dancing breaking the hearts of the ravers ending the night on the pavement Lived while you were young all you ever wanted was a good time did you find it underneeth the streetlight? and do you think that this will be the highlight of your life? Oh, oh, oh Nancy you come alive when you're dancing breaking the hearts of the ravers ending the night on the pavement

Wanderlust 03:03
You’re winning hearts on the coconut shy, But they break as they fall to the grass, I bathe in water from wishing wells, And I dance with the ghost’s of my past Found you on a page in the present tense, Bound by wanderlust, You know that dreams are the eighth of our sins, Far more potent than gluten or lust Holy Communion, Make us as one again, Break open my body, And drink from my blood, As my pretences wash off in the rain, My bones become heavy like sand, Your bones are hollow; you long to be free, From the forces you don’t understand My knuckles are white as I’m pulling you close, My questions have used up the air, I’ll go like a pilgrim to your hidden flaws, And leave my naivety there, Holy Communion, Make us as one again, Break open my body, And drink from my blood, Holy Communion, Make us as one again, Break open my body, And drink from my blood,
