Oldest Friend And I call you my friend, my oldest friend, my oldest friend And I call you my friend, my oldest friend, come back again And I called you at the end, you at the end, my broken friend And I saw your hidden eyes, your hidden eyes, your cold surprise You’re holding five And of all the broken plans, you broke them all and took the fall And hope I realise is a whole new game, when you take the blame When you lose your faith And I call you my friend, my oldest friend, my broken friend Your perfect end, my oldest friend

Down to the Valley I’m going down to the valley won’t you take a ride with me And I’m gonna take all they offer, roll it up and hold it all in I’m going out to the city, won’t you take a ride with me And I’m gonna take all they offer, throw it up and take it again I am not the one you seek, I am not the one you seek Says a slave to its master I’m going down to the valley won’t you take a ride with me And I’m gonna take all they offer, to hide the empty way I feel I am not the one you seek, I am not the one you seek I am not the one you seek Says a slave to its master

You’re So Pretty I knew you were the one from the start By the way that you could make me laugh, Just by the look on your face From the start, you’re my heart, and you’re so pretty What had me was the way you are, So much like me, but so bizarre And you fill in all the holes in me, Cause’ you’re bizarre, you’re my heart You’re bizarre, you’re my heart Your smile is like the brightest star, Shining out on a sea of dark Breaking through the delusions I see You’re my star in the dark and you’re so pretty You’re my star in the dark and you’re so pretty You’re bizarre, you’re my heart and you’re so pretty You’re bizarre, you’re my heart and you’re so pretty You’re bizarre, you’re my heart, and you’re so You’re bizarre, you’re my heart and you’re so pretty You’re bizarre, you’re my heart and you’re so pretty I knew you were the one from the start By the way you know you make me laugh, Just by the look on your face You’re bizarre, you’re my heart and you’re so pretty You’re bizarre, you’re my heart and you’re so pretty You’re bizarre, you’re my heart and you’re so pretty You’re bizarre, you’re my heart and you’re so

I Don’t Know My Name I’m goin’ to the country I don’t know my name, I don’t know my name, I don’t know my name I’m goin’ to the country I don’t know my name, I don’t know my name, I don’t know my name Livin’ in the country you don’t need no time no locks no keys no fuckin’ shit of any kind Cause’ I would live a thousand years in the cold and rain, in the cold and rain, just to have no name I’m goin’ to the country I don’t know my name, I don’t know my name, I don’t know my name I’m goin’ to the country I don’t know my name, I don’t know my name, I don’t know my name And I will stay out here until the day I die with my old dead smile on the day I die Cause’ I would rather live a life I get to choose than live a life of privilege but with everything to lose I’m goin’ to the country I don’t know my name, I don’t know my name, I don’t know my name I’m goin’ to the country I don’t know my name, I don’t know my name, I don’t know my name Hey, oh lets get out, oh lets get out, outta’ here Hey, oh lets get out, oh lets get out, outta’ here Hey, oh lets get out, oh lets get out, outta’ here Hey, oh lets get out, oh lets get out, outta’ here Hey, oh lets get out, oh lets get out, outta’ here Hey, oh lets get out, oh lets get out, outta’ here

Leave the Light On Late at night I see you talking, to yourself like you want them to Then you scream at all the choices that have broken you before I see you cry while you are smiling, cause’ there’s a creature eating you alive And then at night while we are sleeping, you stare awake, at the light switch And you can’t move to fight the monster, cause’ you are shackled by your fears And I saw you leave the light on, And I saw, you left it on And I saw you leave the light on, And I saw, you left it on But you’ll be alright, if you face the night and just fuck your pride And I saw you leave the light on, And I saw, you left it on And I saw you leave the light on, And I saw, you left it on
7.
Liars at Night We’re liars at night, we’re perfect at dawn, And we cry all the time but we don’t taste our tears But you know how to leave And now the hours they pass and you live without fear But you didn’t no you didn’t plant your tree In the garden you made to sow you fears away When, when I’m alone there’s a shadow within When I’m trying to catch the restless part in me But I’m stuck between the truth for me and who I want to be But you know how to leave And now the hours they pass and you live without fear But you didn’t no you didn’t plant your tree In the garden you made to sow your fears away To sow your fears away

Get High 03:13
Get High I get high just to feel the ride without the trouble of the truth That way I don’t feel the pain I’m talkin’ bout suburban blues Leave town cause’ its closin’ in and I blame it on society I feel a prickle cuttin’ through my mind and a storm formin’ deep within I feel restless in my skin and I know it’s wearin’ thin Ohhhhhh and it breaks me down, Ohhhhhh and it breaks me down They said, take a look at what you’re running from Or it might run away from you Then one day down the line I’ve only got a single point of view And I might load my gun but I’m only gonna point it at the things I love Ohhhhhh and it breaks me down, Ohhhhhh and it breaks me down Ohhhhhh and it breaks you down, And we break down But normal life is quite boring, Normal life is quite boring Normal life is quite boring, Normal life And I follow you into the desert, Into strange gardens And we talk about the furniture, Like it’s our soul Ohhhhhh and it breaks me down, Ohhhhhh and it breaks me down I get high just to feel the ride without the trouble of the truth That way I don’t feel the pain, I’m talkin’ bout suburban blues

Master’s Home Some people seem to know when the door is open and the master’s home And those people seem to talk to people they meet in a language they speak But don’t worry it’s all fine, except perhaps the state of your conscious mind But I’m with you I guarantee but how much help can my blank mind be? When fear controls you, when all you can control is fear It’s all you can control But does the haze, get thicker, every time you get near, to a truth you’d face But you’re strangled by fear And time’s holding your life is sand and it’s slippin’ through avoidable hands That freedom lingers but the slave in you is the only one who knows Illusions you chose Fear controls you, when all you can control is fear I said fear controls you, when all you can control is fear
10.
Staring Into Darkness I spend so much time staring into darkness While the people all around me fall asleep You fall asleep at the wheel of life, When you wake from your dreams you fall on your knife And you crawl to your knees in the cold and you scream This darkness is drinking the soul out of me I spend so much time staring into darkness While the people all around me fall asleep And as the years meander by I lose my sense of self to the night And wake up one day still asleep
