Catch 02:42
I went out a hunting I got me a catch He has no idea I am gonna throw him back Sometimes in this life You gotta throw it all in for nothing You might end up broken hearted baby But didn't you learn something He said he'd always love me I gave him everything I had He said he'd always love me I gave him the clothes off my back Sometimes in this life You gotta throw it all in for nothing You might end up broken hearted baby But didn't you learn something I went out a hunting I got me a catch He has no idea I'm never gonna throw him back

Change 04:24
The wind down the south is blowing a gale It's winter in me, but outside seems great And my sister won't talk, cause I stuffed up again Apparently I'm lost on a jaded steam train Sometimes she's right, but this time i'm frail My candles burnt out, but I'm desperately trying to find flame Which happened last night, when you spoke my name You saw my eyes light up, like there was a change coming... And Change, any kind of change will do Cause I'm broke, and I've got a hole in my pocket I think that my mother would somehow be proud She can sing too, we just chose different paths And my lover he shines without polishing the glass He can't help me no more, it's my turn to ask For Change, any kind of change will do Cause I'm broke, and I got a hole in my pocket Tears in my eye sockets And I'm missing half my locket My hearts taken a beating And Change Any kind of change will do Cause I'm broke right now And I've got a hole in my pocket Tears in my eye sockets And I'm missing half my locket

Shattering 04:03
I’m not weak but im not getting better yet They say it takes time, I got time to spare You left a big fat hole in the middle of my chest In the middle of my chest In the middle of my chest   I’m not made of porcelain I can take your words I can take your lies I’m not shattering For anyone that can’t look into my eyes For anyone that can’t look into my eyes   They call the last drinks, I’m packing up my things Ready to hit the road to a home that I just met I could of broken down but I’m just a little bit messed I’m Just a little bit messed I’m Just a little bit messed   I’m not made of porcelain I can take your words I can take your lies I’m not shattering For anyone that can’t look into my eyes For anyone that can’t look into my eyes   I’m looking around a hole lot more these days Trying to figure out which step I gotta take I catch the whiskey train and im straight back off again Yeah I’m straight back off again No whiskey ain’t my friend I’m not made of porcelain I can take your words I can take your lies I’m not shattering For anyone that can’t look into my eyes For anyone that can’t look into my eyes For anyone that can’t look into my eyes

You turn my Brain to Water But my heart to gold You don't want my daughter But she'd be beautiful Oh theres nothing more to say Put your big shoes on and walk away You love flora and fauna And travelling And I love putting on make up And entertaining Oh theres nothing more to say Put your apples on and walk away And change How I wish I could make you stay I wanna throw up Every time I think about you not by my side and on the other side of the world Oh theres nothing more to say No one else will ever take your place oh there's nothing more to say

Manchester 04:36
It's important to think ahead Flash flash goes the signs Drugs and booze and bad situations Will be the cause of the fire We are singing like birds on the water Skeletons with faith The time is coming It's nearly the end You have a choice to make Now make it Don't be wasting sorry on me yet You're not old enough to use it yet When the sun sets over there You'll be sleeping next to her And I'll be at that lane Sundered I'm like a dolly With cheeks so rosy You could swear I came to life Unlike Miss Polly you burn the kettle cause its black but so have I been lately We are singing like birds on the water Waste of time I say The time is coming its nearly the end You have a choice to make Now make it Don't be wasting sorry on me yet You're not old enough to use it yet When the sun sets over there You'll be sleeping next to her And I'll be at that lane Sundered Like thunder Torn from the mother Apology accepted Don't be late, don't be late, don't be late now I got me, I got me, I got me an alibi You owe me, you owe me, you owe me apologise You owe me, you owe me You owe me, apologise Apologise Apologise Apologise Don't be wasting sorry on me yet You're not old enough to use it yet When the sun sets over there You'll be sleeping next to her And I'll be at that lane Sundered

Never 03:49
We're on the same shore We get the same scores It doesn't have to go the way it went before We had the hard times Don't you worry your mind It's doesn't have to go the way it went before And I advertise my love around you like a trailer We sail the seas up and down all the time like we're sailors But we hold the tricks of the trade now don't ya think baby We don't have to go back to that way no never We play the same tunes we fight till we're through it doesn't have to go the way it went before You buy me strange plants Then you make me dance It doesn't have to go the way it went before And I advertise my love around you like a trailer We sail the seas up and down all the time like we're sailors But we hold the tricks of the trade now don't ya think baby We don't have to go back to that way no never No Never And I advertise my love around you like a trailer We sail the seas up and down all the time like we're sailors But we hold the tricks of the trade now don't ya think baby We don't have to go back to that way no never No never

Look at it all Coating the bitter on you To make us feel anything but gratitude Taking a boat road out to the river so deep Drop it all in, can you forgive me? Look at our love Now How We get so black Now Saved it all up, from the start of the century Digging a hole Throw in all my integrity Cannot do anything that walks around right So I do everything to walk at night Look at our love Now How We get so black Now These questions I ask are everything to do with you, to do with me Do not walk away, do not raise your voice do not hit the ceiling just tell me it cannot get worse We cannot be running away We cannot be running away We cannot be running, cannot be running, cannot be running Now How Look at our love Now How'd we get so black Now We cannot be running We cannot be running We cannot be running Look at our love now

Fighter 03:33
A ghost from the past keeps chasing me down the street Begging for money begging for a place to sleep There is nothing left here for you to take from me I am a fighter itty bitter fighter I'd like to meet ya Though I was weaker now I am stronger You're just a pencil on my paper Remember that time you gave me your words to eat I was so hungry dropping to my knees I love you I'll leave her just trust me baby I am a fighter itty bitty fighter fly on the wall Thought I was weaker now I am stronger You're just a minor on my keyboard Woah And though the years move on like a river I still feel I need to deliver this ball Throw it at you with all of my might Forget the time and forget the battle Forget the time and forget the battle Forget the time and forget the battle Forget the time and forget the battle La di da da Cause I am a fighter Though I was weaker now I am stronger You're just a pencil, you're just a minor, you were just a digit on my timer

Keep it up 02:49
I went to the store and I bought you the milk But I gave you the cow for free I wasted a feel on a long guilt train When I should of just waited a week Now I keep spending my life is spinning Continuously out of shape Although its exciting I find it frightening To be that way I can keep it up I can keep it up I can keep it up I can keep it up I can keep it up I can keep it up I blame my mother for building me honest But I'm glad she brought me up that way Cause I love a salesman and I trust him well Enough to buy a life for me I can keep it up I can keep it up I can keep it up I can keep it up I can keep it up I can keep it up He's so beautiful like a wonderful second hand man thats in repair Who gives a shit if I gave everything to make him feel like a man I can keep it up I can keep it up I can keep it up I can keep it up I can keep it up I can keep it up I can keep it up I can keep it up I can keep it up I can keep it up I can keep it up I can keep this up k k k keep it up, keep it up, keep it up

I got faith I got feeling That I just don't think is worth the beating Like our hearts are a breathing Little bit by little bit I need you so Theres this road, I've been walking with the devil and my sin by my side But you washed it away When you said that you would walk with me the rest of my days So don't you let me down Don't you let me down See my heart, young and restless Always looking for a new way to run There's a light in the window And Oh Darlin how you're singing me home Don't you let me down Don't you let me down I've got faith, I've got feeling That i Just don't think is worth the beating Like our hearts are a beating Little bit by little bit I love you so Don't you let me down Don't you let me down No Don't you let down Don't you let me down

I used to wish for I used to wish for so much more All the limelight All the opening doors And that clean fine feeling I felt after your tours I could pray myself to sleep and wake up feeling so much worse Woah, Woah And I can't understand why he let me on go If it was love faith fame it was the best Id ever known But the forces of nature would not let it be Because people in love look like you and me Destination so far north in the heat Don't care where I'm heading just sit right next to me And the crossfire on that ship out to sea The waters so warm I don't wanna drown again Yeah Yeah Yeah I don't wanna drown again yeah And I can't understand why he let me on go If it was love faith fame it was the best I'd ever known But the forces of nature would not let it be Because people in love look like you and me Well you slammed that door But I found more And I can't understand why he let me on go If it was love faith fame it was the best I'd ever know But the forces of nature would not let it be Because people in love look like you and me And I can't understand No I can't understand But the forces of nature would not let it be Because people in love look like you and me
