Thread the Light

Oh no your troubles, they woke you this morning while lying in your bed
No more pulling up the covers, slowing down your breathing faking dead
I know it's no fun wondering when, They'll all come knocking at your door
No more waiting round scared of what's in store, you know you can't run no more
You've got to thread the light, thread the light, thread the light on through
Thread the light through the moments in your life, hell bent on consuming you
One foot is stuck in all your many yesterdays
The other one's stepping towards tomorrow and look, you're pissing all over today
you swear that you weren't always this way
Got to stop making mountains of all these little hills
Throw away all your pills
And thread the light, thread the light, thread the light on through
Thread the light through the moments in your life, hell bent on consuming you
Unclench your fist, it's a waste of your time
Throw your fears aside, lay them all to rest
Forgot your mind, lose all the pain
You're brand new again
Thread the light, thread the light, thread the light on through
Thread the light through the moments in your life, hell bent on consuming you

3 Long Years

Don't you ever call me crying
When you left town, you sold out, you cut your hair you changed your ways
You went and found somebody new
And the day you call was the day I was getting over you
Now I never feel like trying
To go outside, come out of hiding
To meet some girl who looks like you
and tell myself that I'm in love
And the day you call, I was almost out of the rough
Don't you ever quit your lying?
Prone to wander, testing beds
Hear you out? Well come on baby I'm all ears
All you deserve is a steady salty stream of sad tears
Things are looking up, Things are looking up!
Cos, you had me flat on my back, for three long years

Once You Get Inside

Service starts at Nine, don't be late
For once in my whole life, I'll be right on time
Don't wear black, I love you in blue
And for heaven's sake
Please don't cry
This Coffin's Not so bad once you get inside
Oh, Once you get inside
Hope I don't get to bored sleeping eternally
Now I wish I'd brought some things to read
Sure That I'll think up some mighty fine poems
I'd send them to you, but there's just no room to write
This Coffin's Not so bad once you get inside
Oh, Once you get inside
Oh, Once you get inside

The Sweetest Things

My fathers heart attacked him at his Job one day
My little sisters didn't understand
I held them then my mother, our eyes were raining
And now I'm at my lovers big blue house again
My voice emits the words I came to spill
And they're the sweetest things that I could ever own
Those moments when your love overflows
They're the sweetest things, The sweetest things that I have ever known
I've been inside this body since I wound up here
I battered it and went to sleep for years
She met My eyes and then my lips and that coma never was
Never was, Never Known no one like you
And they're the sweetest things that I could ever own
Those moments when your love overflows
They're the sweetest things, The sweetest things that I have ever known
I'm Spoiled now, I'm losing count, of all the things in life that make me smile
And they're the sweetest things that I could ever own
Those moments when your love overflows
They're the sweetest things, The sweetest things that I have ever known

Hold Me Tight

I woke up, I was warm, the blanket held her form
I ran my hand through her lovely terrain
I whispered in her ear, I love you being here
She turned to kiss me and, i saw it plain
No more running wild and crazed into the night
I know I'd be dead and gone, before I found another like
This woman who holds me tight
Holds me tight
We jumped onto a bus, snuck into the back
Our leather bags were packed and at our feet
We smiled looking down, at her belly big and round
I kissed her and I'd never felt so complete
No more running wild and crazed into the night
I know I'd be dead and gone, before I found another like
This woman who holds me tight, This woman who holds a child
This girl I'll always love until the day, I die.

Already said your goodbyes, they all waved with tears in their eyes
There he goes, the youngest of five
He's leaving home
Young and able for chasing his dreams, following a picture in a magazine
Car radio blares, and the chords careen
Into his soul
And all he wants is someone to rock him, someone to come and take control
All he wants is someone to rock him
All he needs is rock N roll
Lonesome and thin, heard the band begin
Heard Loud guitars, bar wouldn't let him in
Bought cigarettes, back to smoking again
He's all alone
And all he wants is someone to rock him, someone to come and take control
All he wants is someone to rock him
All he needs is rock N roll
And all he wants is someone to rock him, someone to come and take control
All he wants is someone to rock him
All he needs is rock N roll
