Lyrics


1.Sunburn


Come waste your millions here
Secretly she sneers
Another corporate show
Guilty conscience grows
I'll feel guilty conscience grow
I'll feel guilty conscience grow

She burns like the sun
I can't look away
She'll burn our horizons make no mistake

Come let the truth be shared
No one ever dared
To break these endless nights
Secretly she cries

She burns like the sun
I can't look away
She'll burn our horizons make no mistake
And I'll hide from the world
Behind a broken frame
And I'll burn forever can't face the shame
And I'll hide from the world
Behind a broken frame
And I'll burn forever can't face the shame



2.Muscle Museum


She had something to confess to
But you don't have the time so look the other way
You will wait until its over
To reveal what you'd never shown her
Too little much too late

Too long trying to resist it
You've just gone and missed it
It's escaped your world

Can you see that I am needing
Begging for so much more
Then you could ever give
But i don't want you to adore me
Don't want you to ignore me
When it pleases you yeah
And i'll do it on my own

I have played in every toilet
But you still want to spoil it
To prove I've made a big mistake

Too long trying to resist it
You've just gone and missed it
It's escaped your world

Can you see that I am needing
Begging for so much more
Then you could ever give
But idon't want you to adore me
Don't want you to ignore me
When it pleases you yeah
I'll do it on my own
I'll do it on my own



3.Fillip


It's happening soon,
It's happening soon,
It's scent has been blowing in my direction.
To me it is new,
To me it is new,
And it's not going to change for anybody.

And it's gonna be our last memory,
And it's led me on,
And on to you.

It's got to be here,
It's got to be there,
It's got to be now
All I'll lose for ever.
This feeling is strange,
This feeling is strange,
But it's not going to change for anybody.

And it's gonna be our last memory,
And it's led me on, and on to you.

Accuse me,
Trust me, I never knew,
That you were the one, you were the one,

And it's gonna be our last memory,
And it's led me on, and on to you.
And it's gonna be our last memory,
And it's led me on, and on to you. You.



4.Falling Down


I'm falling down
15 thousand people scream
They were all begging for your dream
I'm falling down
Five thousand houses burning down
No one is gonna save this town

Too late
I already found what I was looking for
You know it wasn't you
No it wasn't you

I was calling your name
You would never hear me sing
You wouldn't let me begin
So I'm crawling away
'Cause you broke my heart in two
Now i can not forget you

Too late
I already found what I was looking for
You know it wasn't you
No it wasn't you
No

Falling away
You never see me through
No I cannot forget you
Falling down
A thousand house burning down
No one is gonna see this town

Too late
I already found what I was looking for
You know it wasn't you
No it wasn't you
No
Falling down
My world is upside down
I'm heading straight for the clouds



5.Cave


Leave me alone it's nothing serious
I'll do it myself
It's got nothing to do with you
And there's nothing that you can do

You can see it and you can almost hear it too
You can almost taste it
It's nothing to do with you
And it's still nothing you can do

So come in my cave
And I'll burn your heart away
Come in my cave
I'll burn your heart away

Please close your ears
And try to look away
So you never hear a single word I say
And don't ever come my way
Leave me alone it's nothing serious
I'll do it myself
It's got nothing to do with you
And there's nothing that you can do

So come in my cave
And I'll burn your heart away
Come in my cave
And arrest me from my escape



6.Showbiz


Controlling my feelings for too long,
Controlling my feelings for too long,
Controlling my feelings for too long,
Controlling my feelings for too long,
Forcing our darkest souls to unfold,
Forcing our darkest souls to unfold,
Pushing us into to self destruction,
Pushing us into to self destruction.

They make me, make me dream your dreams,
They make me, make me scream your screams.

Trying to please you for too long,
Trying to please you for too long,
Visions of greed you wallow,
Rhythms of greed you wallow,
Visions of greed you wallow,
Rhythms of greed you wallow,

They make me, make me dream your dreams,
They make me, make me scream your screams.

Controlling my feelings for too long,
Controlling my feelings for too long,
And forcing our darkest souls to unfold,
And forcing our darkest souls to unfold,
And pushing us into to self destruction,
And pushing us into to self destruction,

They make me, make me dream your dreams,
They make me, make me scream your screams



7.Unintended


You could be my unintended,
Choice to live my life extended
, You could be the one I'll always love.

You could be the one who listens,
To my deepest inquisitions,
You could be the one I'll always love.

I'll be there as soon as I can,
But I'm busy mending broken,
Pieces of the life I had before.

First there was the one who challenged,
All my dreams and all my balance,
She could never be as good as you.

You could be my unintended,
Choice to live my life extended,
You should be the one I'll always love.

I'll be there as soon as I can,
But I'm busy mending broken,
Pieces of the life I had before.
I'll be there as soon as I can,
But I'm busy mending broken,
Pieces of the life I had before.
Before you.



8.Uno


This means nothing to me,
Cos you are nothing to me,
And it means nothing to me
That you blew this away.
Cos you could have been number one
If you only found the time,
And you could have ruled the whole world,
If you had the chance.

You could have been number one,
And you could have ruled the whole world,
And we could have had so much fun,
But you blew it away.

You're still nothing to me,
And this is nothing to me,
And you don't know what you've done,
But I'll give you a clue.
You could have been number one,
If you only had the chance,
And you could have ruled the whole world,
If you had the time.

You could have been number one,
And you could have ruled the whole world,
And we could have had so much fun,
But you blew it away.
You could have been number one,
And you could have ruled the whole world,
And we could have had so much fun,
But you blew it away.



9.Sober


Royal canadian blended
The spicy aroma had mended me
Matured for years and imported
Into my glass you poured it

And you're the only reason
That I remain unfrozen
Suppose it stands to reason
That you would turn on me

You're so solid
You're so solid
It burns inside of me
'Cause you're so solid
It burns inside of me

The wild turkey's been chosen
It's caramel nose could smell me
And I would say that I love you
The single malts come burning

And you're the only reason
That i remain unfrozen
Suppose it stands to reason
That you would turn on me

You're so solid
You're so solid
Burns inside of me
Cause you're so solid
It burns inside of me

Royal canadian blended
The spicy aroma had mended me
And you're the only reason
That I remain unfrozen
Suppose it stands to reason
That you would turn on me

You're so solid
You're so solid
Burns inside of me
Cause you're so solid
It burns inside of me



10.Escape


You would say anything
You would try anything
To escape your meaningless
Your insignificance
You're uncontrolable
We are unloveable

And I don't want you to think that I care
I never would
I never could
Again

Why can't you just love her?
Why be such a monster?
You're burning from a distance
Your brain needs some assistance

But I'll still take all the blame
Cause you and me are both one and the same
And it's driving me mad
And it's driving me mad
I'll take back all the things that I said
I admit I was always talking to the living dead

And I don't want you to think that I care
I never would
I never could
Again

You would say anything
You would try anything
To escape your meaningless
And your insignificance



11.Overdue


You needed when I was away
And no matter what I say
Your'll never forget when I wasn't there
So why should I care
I'm young but I know when I'm aroused
You know that I care
You, should have been there
You, know that I care
You, should have been there

It doesn't matter where I have gone
I just can't afford to
Pay for all the mistakes that you have made
It's about time I was paid

I'm young but I know when I'm aroused
You know that I care
You, should have been there
You, know that I care
You, should have been there

You know that I care
You, should have been there
You, know that I care
You, should have been there

You know that I care
You, should have been there
You, know that I care
You, should have been there



12.Hate This & I'll Love You


Oh I am growing tired,
Of allowing you to steal,
Everything I have, you're making me feel,
Like I was born to service you,
But I am growing by the hour.

You left us far behind,
So we all discard our souls.
And blaze through your skies,
So afraid to die.

Cos I was born to destroy you,
And I am growing by the hour.
And I'm getting strong in every way, Yeah. Yeah.

You led me on, you led me on, you...

Oh, and I'm getting strong in every way, yeah.
