tie the fight (2016)
the draw
all I have got to say, all you can deny, when you look away, from every scar i find
honestly we can't survive, before we tie the fight
hiding underground, folding in the sides, breaking up or down, is all you can provide
just open up or start to cry, before you say, good bye
Honestly we can't survive, before we tie
Hold my strong resolve, another drawn result, hold your strong resolve, another drawn result.
all I have got to say, all you can deny, when you look away, from every scar i find
honestly we can't survive, before we tie the fight
hiding underground, folding in the sides, breaking up or down, is all you can provide
just open up or start to cry, before you say, good bye
Honestly we can't survive, before we tie
Hold my strong resolve, another drawn result, hold your strong resolve, another drawn result.

get functional
for the moment i'm just watching, i'm keeping distance until I can digest and understand the dark noise we both keep living in i can't receive it when you look me down, tell me I should walk when you know that I can't stand, when you know i won't survive this another year of holding plans, we are still dying in our hands before i take my only turn, we both sit back and watch it burn i don't believe it when you keep on insisting i'll be fine i felt the darkness when, you found a way to hide your friend i know that you are not listening, not even trying to be real you said "you have got to go", you said "I'll never grow" i feel the sickness taking hold i lost the chance to take a stand before your venom takes control, before your actions break our plans write it all off, bury it all down in the background dust yourself off, water it all down with a black cloud |

caroline
you stepped in front of me and i lost my nerve is this the only day I don't deserve you i won't concede in front of you, i don't believe you i will fight my distaste and burn because you took my hand where you stand caroline i don't deserve you in time we will find our reason, turn to the blind side of ourselves i make it hard to make you try |
ten minutes or your life
i force myself to pause and i burn my instinct further away
i am trying to survive i don't know who you are
when i begin to fade in the depths i am sinking in, you are listening
to how i would react when you cry your heart out, i can't now
so how should i react if you cry your hear out? I can't now
so i don't sleep for days, i am stuck anxious again
this is easy for me now all my hope is gone
all your hope is gone
attitude ricochets, feeding an empty war, i feel more ashamed than i ever have before.
attitude ricochets, feeding an empty war, i feel more insane than i ever have before.
all your hope is gone

so how should i react if you cry your hear out? I can't now
so i don't sleep for days, i am stuck anxious again

all your hope is gone
attitude ricochets, feeding an empty war, i feel more ashamed than i ever have before.

damn reality
don't raise my hands, i won't admit that i know when it got that bad
just ignore the world
you look away when i question the life i thought was real and you
just close the door
damn reality staring at me
i realise i was risking everything on one small chance
you might arrive
in the same place, at the same time when we are so far apart right now
we could barely survive
damn reality, i'll stop listening now
arrested i left it until you drowned out everything
i sure can let you down
un-rescued i miss you, but now i have ground down everything
i sure can let you down
in so many ways we keep drawing the same circle over again
and i'm bored and i'm done.
you don't have to know and I don't have to grow.

in ratio
i am in your debt and i am starving but i don't want you
to feed me the easy answer, i'll take the rear-view home
i don't know the reason why i don't make you sad, in ratio
i have broken all the records and you don't care to know, if i am gone
cut my eyes i am not bleeding, too cold to shiver
vapour trails are not forming, my face is overgrown
i am living every reason why you don't win me back, but I sure know
it hurts to think about you, i hit a clutter overflow then i'm gone
i know i am the reason we never stood a chance, in ratio
i have broken all my records and you don't care to know, now i am gone
Broken enough before I met you
i am in your debt and i am starving but i don't want you
to feed me the easy answer, i'll take the rear-view home
i don't know the reason why i don't make you sad, in ratio
i have broken all the records and you don't care to know, if i am gone

i know i am the reason we never stood a chance, in ratio
i have broken all my records and you don't care to know, now i am gone
Broken enough before I met you
lose the night
around about the last time i saw you
i took a spark to everything we loved
i am trapped alone within my hateful words fuelled up by you
we carry on ignoring what i have done
we flood the fire numbing every wound
we ignore the truth and lies keep wandering on driven by you
you want to argue until i make it worse
you fan the flames until my bones have burned
i never hide and i will never learn
the melted love and mess that our lives became
we will never have pure air to breathe again
i cannot clear the haze when all i say is blocked by you
don't try to tell me why it has been so long
you burn the bridge that we were sleeping on
i am packing up now the peace has gone
lose half of the night but you can still fight when I am lying still
almost like you invented our love to grow something you could kill
there is freedom in your honesty, but not the kind of truth you think I mean.
i have given up on all these broken things rebuilding you.
lose half of the night but you can still fight when I am lying still, almost like you invented our love to grow something you could kill.

out of my mind
here i tell the years that i fell around you until you died
all the times i tried and failed in my own eyes, i compromised
let go before cancer kills the population i can't take you
most of the time i try to keep a smile
all the years that i have lost by not giving you what you want
i still tell you why (I need to love you), forget what I said
i can't get you out of my mind, i am out of my mind.
forget what I said.

btrthn
i woke up feeling stained when the words keep me down fire juice into my veins i am feeling better now but there is a pain i can't explain i am feeling better now if i lie and hide away or i fight i am stuck in doubt i might decay further each day but i am feeling better now either way i won't complain i am feeling better now i am like a circular line drawn over again, knowing it never ends we are all the same we will never change i am feeling better now my malaise all that remains but i am feeling better now i go back to where i am from and forget why it felt so wrong in adelaide i lost my jade but i am feeling better now so afraid i felt betrayed but i am feeling better now your eyes are redder now, feeling better now |
so long (2004 / 2016)
so long
i am in curse control, you padlock your front door
i scream outside all night, i hate knowing your lies
i heard the talking in the background
it killed to think you're there with someone else
i was good enough last year, yeah you needed me once
i fight not to write it off, i have got the worst time
i hate the way you screw my mind
when i think about it, i haven't even seen you in so long
i know you are out there
i have got this to say, hear me out just once
it's four more hours to perth, in five hours i will be gone
i see the distance within you, i drew the line you crossed through
when i think about it i haven't even seen you in so long
i know you are out there
even when i ignore the ride signs, i can't even say to you so long
i know you don't care
i am in curse control, you padlock your front door
i scream outside all night, i hate knowing your lies
i heard the talking in the background
it killed to think you're there with someone else
i was good enough last year, yeah you needed me once
i fight not to write it off, i have got the worst time
i hate the way you screw my mind
when i think about it, i haven't even seen you in so long
i know you are out there
i have got this to say, hear me out just once
it's four more hours to perth, in five hours i will be gone
i see the distance within you, i drew the line you crossed through
when i think about it i haven't even seen you in so long
i know you are out there
even when i ignore the ride signs, i can't even say to you so long
i know you don't care
how to forget (you) (2003)

alison archer
alison tell me how your name got inside my head it's always the same, or is that someone else it is so hard talking about you when i don't know a thing and i don't know where to start, when it's time to fall apart time and time again i try to meet your friends and tell them that you're gone, so leave my life alone i don't want to go out because when i get home you're always by my door with a message from your heart, and it's then i fall apart alison |

this moment is all it is
you don't think when you talk do you want to know that you're more capable because when i get lost i will do anything to find you i'll give you who i am and you'll get out if i make you laugh will you turn around or find another way to let me down can you answer that? (you won't answer that) because it all adds up i'll put you together when you fall down when you get up and don't need me i'll write it off this moment is all it is this moment is gone |

controlling the airways
by the time we were leaving cleveland airspace
i could tell that you needed more than two days
i put on my skin and you got under
you're a mannequin again i wonder
i wonder why you said you hate me
and i wonder why i made you angry
i put on your face and said w'ere over
and you would implode like a super nova
if i was in control of the airways, i'd have flown us over that town all day
now i just watch re-runs of you forever and miss the final screen on new york weather
through all the turbulence you got home
and it's like i'm stuck behind you eight rows
if i was in control of the airways, i'd have flown her over cleveland all day
by the time we were leaving cleveland airspace
i could tell that you needed more than two days
i put on my skin and you got under
you're a mannequin again i wonder
i wonder why you said you hate me
and i wonder why i made you angry
i put on your face and said w'ere over
and you would implode like a super nova
if i was in control of the airways, i'd have flown us over that town all day
now i just watch re-runs of you forever and miss the final screen on new york weather
through all the turbulence you got home
and it's like i'm stuck behind you eight rows
if i was in control of the airways, i'd have flown her over cleveland all day
nothing left to bruise
okay, let's go
tell me what's on your mind, when a call from me won't do
on and on we're silent i catch you out again when somethings gone
when you call i don't want to, when you're gone i just want you
i give up now and i am so lonely i must have been wrong
say it i won't tell, 'cause i give up real well
now you've got someone else to tell you how it is
so i take what i can sell, and if you're parallel
then why make my life hell
i can't think about it anymore, my head is turning over
build it up and weigh the fall when i know you have left it all behind
work it out before you call, i am eaten inside when i stall
the times that you were never there, the times that i was so wrong
you're jealous all the time but you've got no reason now
so go and live with your own mind because i can't fight it all
and i won't ask for you to tell me what i need too
i just seem to forget how to forget you
you're never home, where do you go
i am stuck here by myself, not knowing where to stand
you have been thinking of someone else, now you're not about me
and i've owned a fear for a while, i must know it's not your style
to tell me what i want to hear and not that you're giving up
i told you leaving is fair enough, you're hard to stop when i can't get up
you want to end yourself well shout, i only hear you when you're loud
and i just need to write this wrong, but all i do is wait too long
to tell you why i know that we can't be alone from now on
quit telling me your strong
'cause you've got nowhere else to find out what it is i want
so tell me what you missed
you think it's not that bad, but i am stuck here with nothing
i have got nothing left to bruise, i'll start again
and now you're home, where did you go
-------------
is it something i said, did i let you down
'cause i don't remember a thing, i use that excuse again
and it's not my problem
and i'll make it up to you, just give me a day to breathe
and i'll be someone new, that you always wanted
but something else is wrong, i can see it in your eyes
and I'm a little drunk tonight, so you just want me gone
and every time i leave, you never let me go
but it's you that i don't feed with all this alcohol
it's you that i don't need with all this alcohol
okay, let's go
tell me what's on your mind, when a call from me won't do
on and on we're silent i catch you out again when somethings gone
when you call i don't want to, when you're gone i just want you
i give up now and i am so lonely i must have been wrong
