"Out Of Reach"
 
Launch the ships
The walls are closing in
Close our eyes
In the deepest darkness

Sail away, sail away to find them
Half a life, half a life among light
Sail away, sail away to find them
Half a life, half a life amongst them

Out Of Reach
Too far gone to be saved

Hear the sound
The call is to believe
Husbands and sons
Are lost to their sea

Sail away, sail away to find them
Half a life, half a life amongst them

Out Of Reach
Too far gone to be saved
Out Of Reach
Taken by the waves
By the waves

The light that shines
Will dull our eyes
The light that shines
Will dull the life

Out of reach
Too far gone to be saved
Out of reach
Taken by the waves
Out of reach
Out of reach
Out of reach
Too far gone to be saved

"One For The Road"
 
There are miles left to walk
And this desert never lies
Broken bottles on the floor
Cigarette kisses on the walls

Did you forget to call
To find your way back home?
Out for another drink
You find yourself alone

And with the truth I feel inside
Could you believe me
That I could wait here all my life
For you to find me?

Faces pass me by
And these pictures never lie to me
Broken bottles on the floor
And all this writing on the wall

Did you forget to call
To find your way back home?
Out for another drink
You find yourself alone

And with the truth I feel inside
Could you believe me?
That I could wait here all my life
For you to find me

Pass me by, never lie
Pass me by, never lie

(Lie [x4])

(Lie)
You never lie
(Lie)
You never lie
(Lie)
You never lie
(Lie)
You never lie

"Walk Away"
 
All the words that we have to say
They don't leave when the moment comes
We know we have to wait
As the days go on and the places fade away
to dirt and to dust, it all fades away

And the waiting is the hardest thing to take
In a moment more before we break

If you have to let it go
And these dreams keep you awake
If you have to let it go
Walk away

And the shapes we want to see
Don't leave another piece that this puzzle needs

And the waiting is the hardest thing to take
In a moment more before we break

If you have to let it go
And these dreams keep you awake
If you have to let it go
Walk away

And the waiting is the hardest thing to take
In a moment more before we break

If you have to let it go
And these dreams keep you awake
If you have to let it go
Walk away

If you have to let it go
And these dreams keep you awake
If you have to let it go
Walk away (walk away)

If you have to let it go
And these dreams keep you awake
If you have to let it go
Walk away (walk away)

"The Sweetest Wave"
 
I'll never understand
Why I have been saved
The sea sings its master plan
Over the waves

Sun rise upon the line
buckling drift
the path that I walked along
is lost in the drift

So far away from my home, will the stars return?

The wave of oppressive lights
this colourless storm
at peace with the thirst inside
away from the swarm

moments of peace will come
the wind at my heals
my body's lifeless age
is lost to its feel

so far away from my home, will the stars return?

Home is where I needed you, salvation in dreams

Heaven above me
Water below me
How can I survive this?

Swallow the sea
blood draining me too far
and I cannot stand it

and I cannot stand it

Anymore, and I cannot stand it
Anymore
Anymore, and I cannot stand it
Anymore
Anymore, and I cannot stand it
Anymore

Collusus returning
Mountain is singing
fish are fresh from the killing

Breath hitting me
return to the sea to sleep
he tries to command it (elanor)

He tries to command it (elanor)

Dearest hope has gone away
swaying out so far from me
golden to hair palm my sway
sweetest wave bring me home
Bring me home!

bring me home
bring me home
bring me home

"Rules And Games"
 
Define the marks prepare to laugh
So sorry you never had your reasons
Loose the lips and sink the ships
A cycle broken and amused

Rules and games playful moments
That won't last no matter how it feels
Ropes that strain to catch the picture frames
No never what is real

Avenues we all confuse
These maps will make them disappear
Mountains side your feelings lie
For better sense without your fear

Stay with me now
Now I can hide away
Stay with me now
Driving the lights away
Stay with me now
Now we can find away

"To Die Like Mouchette"
 
Kick start your heart
Just like an engine
battered and over-used
Are we really ready?
I don't think it's any use

If you think it feels close to you
Hey angel, there's nothing left to loose

Please, believe in what I have to say
The symptoms that you have are so lost
Your wires are crossed, are you leaving?

Discarded on the floor
We feel the pain, nestled in overtures
If you're telling truths to me
so sorry to let it go

If you think it feels close to you
Hey angel, it's hardly a worn excuse

Please, believe in what I have to say
The symptoms that you have are so lost
Your wires are crossed, are you leaving?
Well just leave and never analyse the way
You didn't like the look of his eyes or of his smile
You have to leave it and run away

Please, believe in what I have to say
The symptoms that you have are so lost
Your wires are crossed, are you leaving?
Well just leave and never analyse the way
You didn't like the look of his eyes or of his smile
You have to leave it and run away

"Kicking And Screaming"
 
Growing up, around these streets
Never really felt quite like, like anything
Expect nothing, and have the chance
To really go somewhere, that you can't

My love is exploitation
Not a passing celebration
And I don't want to feel
Like a part of history

Gonna turn this town, upside down
Weekends on railway lines just to feel
Promises broken at a quarter past five
Burning fires on the railway hillsides

My love is exploitation
Not a passing celebration
And I don't want to feel
Like a part of history

And the grass is greener
On the other side
That's where I want to be
Somewhere that she can really see

We all go out like we come in
Kicking and screaming
We all go out like we come in
Kicking and screaming
We all go out like we come in
Kicking and screaming

My love is exploitation
Not a passing celebration
And I don't want to feel
Like a part of history

And the grass is greener
On the other side
That's where I want to be
Somewhere that she can really see

"Constant Illuminations"
 
Where's the emotion?
Tuned to the sound of sincerity
Without connection
The lesson doesn't come for free
Senseless distractions
Your spoken words are just a lie
These interactions
The desperate act of fleeting minds

Constant illuminations
With no hope of preservation
Nothing but friendly fire
Soon you will be home again

Buried expression
They are the heart of everything
Distant impressions
When there is nothing left to say
So damn lucky
To be hear at the end of the end of the day
So damn lucky
When all the streets still cal your name

Constant illuminations
With no hope of preservation
Nothing but friendly fire
Soon you will be home again

(Spirit dies within)

Constant illuminations
With no hope of preservation
Nothing but friendly fire
Soon you will be home again

The spirit, the spirit, the spirit
It dies within

"Maybe I Am?"
 
Maybe I'm a pessimist
What if all the grey clouds in the sky
Follow me home tonight?

Maybe I'm an atheist
What if there's no god waiting to greet me
At the end of the working week

Maybe I'm just delicate
Maybe I am...

Just not clever enough to persuade
Everyone of the reasons
We're failing each other
And it's not the same, not the same to me
No it's not the same, not the same to me

Maybe I'm an optimist
What if all the damage that was done
Was never up to me?

Maybe I'm a liar
What if all the truths that I have told
Are better left, better left unsaid?

What sticks to me
Sticks to you like glue

Maybe I'm just delicate
Maybe I am...

Just not clever enough to persuade
Everyone of the reasons
We're failing each other
And it's not the same, not the same to me
No it's not the same, not the same to me
So I'll pack up my bags and leave
I'll pack up my bags and leave
