1. BEGGARS

The Devil's been stuck in my brain,
And he's been living there seventeen days
He said that I can do better
But I know I'll get better
I'll do anything to feel something

The voices they're loudest at night
And they're so loud that they're haunting my mind
Although I know it makes him unsettled
To know I'll get better, if I find something deep within

See I can't find the way, out my mind.

Breathe in, I'm coming to get you
You need me, but I don't know how to reach you
You know I'm going to be the one
(But I don't wanna be the one)
But I don't wanna be the one!

Breathe in, I'm coming to get you
You need me, but I don't know how to reach you
You know I'm going to be the one
(But I don't wanna be the one)
But I don't wanna be the one!

I'm begging it to push me away
Cause all this time it'll only drive me insane
I'm hoping just to sort it someday
And then it's just me and myself all the way

(So try sleeping with a stranger in your room.
It spends time banging on your bedroom walls
The voices in the pitch black, letting you know that you're, Not alone)

See I can't find the way, out my mind.

Breathe in, I'm coming to get you
You need me, but I don't know how to reach you
You know I'm going to be the one
(But I don't wanna be the one)
But I don't wanna be the one!

Breathe in, I'm coming to get you
You need me, but I don't know how to reach you
You know I'm going to be the one
(But I don't wanna be the one)
But I don't wanna be the one!

(I'm coming to get you, I'm coming to get you)
I know I'm gonna be the one, but I don't wanna be the one
(Coming to get you, I'm coming to get you)
I know I'm gonna be the one, but I don't wanna be the one!

See I can't find, the way out of my mind.
(Cause I don't wanna be the one, cause I don't wanna be the One)
The devil has his claws too deep inside
(Cause I don't wanna be the one, cause I don't wanna be the One)

See I can't find, the way out of my mind.
(I'm coming to get you, I'm coming to get you, I don't wanna Be the one, I don't wanna be the one)
The devil has his claws too deep inside
(I'm coming to get you, I'm coming to get you
I don't wanna be the one, I don't wanna be the one)


2. LIGHTHOUSE

And I'm so tired
Of these buried lies,
We spoke about a thousand times
When all your friends stuck by your side
Turning backs and minds,
Whilst all this time, you've been stabbing mine
And cut and dry at all my pride
But there's a scar you'll never find
Right behind my eye.

No sleep tonight,
A whistle form the wind will haunt your mind
But they're all outside
Swimming to the shore

I'm the lighthouse in the dark
I'd shine a light on every single soul that weeps
That you've torn
I'm the lighthouse in the dark
Directing all the ships that carry all the broken hearts
That you have torn apart!

And I'll never hide,
I've only ever wanted love to bridge this gap of mine
But I'll never ever seem to reach the other side
So what do you want?!
What do you want from me and need from me,
To make you feel, to make you feel alive?!

No sleep tonight,
A whistle form the wind will haunt your mind
They're all outside
Swimming to the shore!

I'm the light house in the dark
I'd shine a light on every single soul that weeps
That you've torn
I'm the lighthouse in the dark
Directing all the ships that carry all the broken hearts
That you have torn apart!

(I'll find the words in time, that light the way home..
Find a soul,
Wish I could,
Touch your soul,
Light it up,
See the path - it's time to go!

Find a soul,
Wish I could,
Touch your soul,
Light it up,
See the path - And watch you go!

(I'll find the words in time, that light the way home..
Find a soul,
Wish I could,
Touch your soul,
Light it up,
See the path...

I'm the light house in the dark
I'd shine a light on every single soul that weeps
That you've torn
I'm the lighthouse in the dark
Directing all the ships that carry all the broken hearts
That you have torn apart!


3. DEATH RATTLE

Headlights in your eyes
Oh darling there are angels by your side
When you’ve lived a life in a building stood on lies
The truth will tear it down

You’re choking in your sleep
From all those promises you couldn’t keep
And this could be the match that could burn you to the Ground
Deaths rattling your dreams

Your nights spent shouting at the stars and moon
You never could sleep tight with them watching over you
You never were a lonely lover holding on to me
And now you’re all alone

Yeah you can’t stray from what you are
You’re the closest thing to hell I’ve seen so far
Yeah you can’t stray from what you are
You’re the closest thing to hell I’ve seen so far

Asleep by the riverbank your heart swells
Your lungs are alive but you’re living in hell
Dreaming only ever gave you an excuse to care for what you Didn’t need

Oh well I never cared if you were there
But I loved you more than I could say
But I was scared of the repercussions I would face if you had left
But I guess it doesn’t matter now, it doesn’t matter now

Your nights spent shouting at the stars and moon
I never could sleep tight with them watching over you
Oh but you never were a lonely lover holding on to me
And now you’re all alone

Yeah you can’t stray from what you are
You’re the closest thing to hell I’ve seen so far
Yeah you can’t stray from what you are
You’re the closest thing to hell I’ve seen so far

Yeah you can’t stray from what you are
You’re the closest thing to hell I’ve seen so far
Yeah you can’t stray from what you are
You’re the closest thing to hell I’ve seen so far

Yeah you can’t stray from what you are
You’re the closest thing to hell I’ve seen so far
Yeah you can’t stray from what you are
You’re the closest thing to hell I’ve seen so far


4. WOLVES

Hope is built on foundations of sand
It's never quite enough to keep help up
And lies will act as planned
Set 'em off and watch our dreams descend

When the wolves come out

Sweetest enemy, I know you're building me up to break me Down, you never seem to come around
My sweetest enemy I know you're drifting alone

A life full of lies got my hiding inside
From the sun and
I'm hoping in time that the worst will have been and gone
Yeah you can't hold me back with Promises your words are Filled with doubt, unlock the door and watch me walking out

Sweetest enemy, I know you're building me up to break me Down, you never seem to come around
My sweetest enemy I know you're drifting alone

You got caught they're coming for you
We got your scent and we're running faster
You got caught they're coming for you
We got your scent and we're running faster
You got caught they're coming for you
We got your scent and we're running faster
You got caught
The wolves have come for you

When the wolves come out,
Will you hear them screaming calling out?

My sweetest enemy, I know you're building me up to break me Down,
You never seem to come around
My sweetest, my sweetest enemy,
I know you're drifting alone, I know you're drifting alone


5. 1949

1949 I found you
Since then,
Never have their been two, hearts that cannot will not break Their hold.
I saw your eyes and darkness faded, a second later that I Had waited
A kiss from lips, that pierce my soul
60 years gone by, and still you are mine.

So sing your self to sleep tonight and let your demons go,
Cause every word you spoke to me
Has saved me for so long
And every move and every kiss, I've kept this on my tounge
Cause you're as beautiful to me as when you were young.
Cause you were as beautiful to me as when you were young.

So here we are, standing side by side for all this time
Now I can never comprehend the life without you and all of This I did
It was coming home to hard, I promise this together we will Win
I understand it too our time, with this love their is no Goodbye

(60 years gone by)
And still you are mine

So sing yourself to sleep tonight and let your demons go
Cause every word you spoke to me
Has saved me for so long
And every move and every kiss, I've kept this on my tounge
Cause you're as beautiful to me as you were when you were Young
As when you were young.

So sing yourself to sleep tonight
And let your demons go,
Cause every word you spoke to me has saved me for so long
And every move and every kiss I've kept this on my tounge
Cause you're as beautiful to me, as when you were young
You're as beautiful to me as when you were young
You're as beautiful to me as when you were young


6. WAKE UP

Well this is a heartfelt melody
But you'd never know it cause you're not listening
And i know i know yes, yes i know it may sound troubling
It'll never slow up so you'd better stop me

Wake up stand up
I never could he said, so we sang
Woah oh, woah oh (wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up)
We had no chance when all i could sing was sad songs
Woah oh, woah oh (wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up)

These feelings you're writing
Will give you nothing but a little time to think
They're just words and just ink
They're little more than whispers riding on the breeze
But when, but when your singing
We get more, we get more a feeling
There is very little left you have to say
So pick up a guitar and take it away

Wake up stand up
I never could he said, so we sang
Woah oh, woah oh (wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up)
We had no chance when all i could sing was sad songs
Woah oh, woah oh (wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up)

So break me into pieces until you see my bones
Cause i've been feeling like this since i was thirteen years Old
And if you see my smiling, i'm lying through my teeth
Cause everything i once knew has now gone

Woah oh, woah oh

Wake up stand up
I never could he said, so we sang
Woah oh, woah oh (wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up)
We had no chance when all i could sing was sad songs
Woah oh, woah oh (wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up)


7. HELLO

She's got five lives that she's got to save
And she's thrown them all away
And she doesn't know how to feel
Her decision is not made by me
To Ill write you a love song and lie through my
Teeth, the choices you've made
They don't sit well with me

Hello, I am looking for her out there
Why hasn't anybody seen her?
And is there any kind of way to find her
Hello, I am looking for her out there
(And I am looking for her out there)
Hasn't anybody seen her?
(And hasn't anybody seen her?)
And is there any kind of way to find her

And this old way we were you said you would make
It work but you never could show me proof,
Show me proof
So wash the dirt from your clothes
Take what you own
Runaway from promises made
Made back when we really cared, really cared,

The secrets you've been keeping
They have been let out

Hello, I am looking for her out there
Why hasn't anybody seen her?
And is there any kind of way to find her
Hello, I am looking for her out there
(And I am looking for her out there)
Hasn't anybody seen her?
(And hasn't anybody seen her?)
And is there any kind of way to find her?

To find her, to find her, to find her,
To find her (hello), to find her (hello), to find her (Hello),

Hello, yes I am looking for her out there,
Why hasn't anybody seen her?
And is there any kind of way to find her?

Hello, yes I am looking for her out there
Why hasn't anybody seen her?
And is there any kind of way to find her?

Hello, yes I am looking for her out there
(Yes I am looking for her out there)
Why hasn't anybody seen her?
(Why hasn't anybody seen her?)
And is there any kind of way, to find her?


8. MISDEMEANOUR

Hush little baby don't you cry
You'll be sleeping alone tonight
I know you better than you know yourself
And while you're sleeping alone my dear
I'll be sleeping inside your fears
I know you better than you know yourself

And I'll be right here waiting for you
And I'll sit right here waiting for you
Inside you'll pray it's not true
But I'm waiting for you, waiting for

Daytimes coming around my love
And you'll go back to the light I loathe
I know, I know you better than you know yourself cause when I feel your touch
It's too much to let go you've been living inside here for six years and
Did you know that I know you
Better than yourself

And I'll be right here waiting for you
And I'll sit right here waiting for you
Inside you'll pray it's not true
But I'm waiting for you, waiting for you

And I'll be right here waiting for you
And I'll sit right here waiting for you
Inside you'll pray it's not true
But I'm waiting for you, waiting for you


9. BURY YOUR HEAD

Declare to the world
That you are who you are
And sing one alone to this music
Deep down inside,
Smell the stench of your lies
Always take what you have and abuse it,
You turn up the sound,
For the boys and the girls,
Who have all gathered round to bare witness
But silence remains it's the same everyday

You will not win, you will not win, you will not-

Bury your head, then you lie to these children
I won't let it end, It's hard to be something I'm not,
When you're out there, somewhere

Bury your head, then you lie to these children
I won't let it end, It's hard to be something I'm not,
When you're out there, somewhere

If you bury your head, then you lie to these children
I won't let it end, It's hard to be something I'm not,
When you're out there, somewhere

Bury your head, then you bury these children
I won't let it end, It's hard to be something I'm not,
When you're out there, somewhere


10. SIGNALS

All these lights, and these signs that we've covered up a Thousand times,
A way to let go and show those lies that we've been told,
So breath in, in deep, and count those blessings in your Sleep.
It feels safe and sound, we're walking on the shaking Ground,
But we're blind to see these polka dots within the trees,
And the sun, will shine on every path that leads to our Demise.

They're looking at us out here,
And watching with a grin
And we know how it feels
To come and let them in.

They're looking at us out here,
And watching with a grin
And we know how it feels
To come and let them in.

Hold to your positions, look to angels up above,
They're flooded to the ground and cover us in dust.

These stories, these secrets that you've locked away,
Will be buried with me on my dying day.

Ohhhh oh ooooh

They're looking at us out here,
And watching with a grin
And we know how it feels
To come and let them in. (x4)

To come and let them in...


11. CREEPER

I can count on my hands
All the time that I've taken
Time just to look at the world that you're making
And do you care if truth and pride will die at all
The illusion of freedom is burning and dying
And times will get worse everyday
Are you dreaming or is life disposable (oh)

(So sing those lies you speak about each day because
The worst comes greater from a dirty mouth or so they say)

All we are, is broken and
All we are, is broken (Woah-oh)

You can see from my face
All the time that I've wasted
Time after time wishing time could erase it
I never cared for love, I'd rather go alone
I'm scared of the ghosts that are trying to reach me
Tired of the kid dying lonely inside of me
I'm still the same but my mind broke so long ago

(So sing those lies you speak about each day because
The worst comes greater from a dirty mouth or so they say)

All we are, is broken and
All we are, is broken (Woah-oh)

All we are, is broken and
All we are, is broken
Mmm-m-m-mmm
