Listen, I'm leaving, I can't have your talking
I hate it so hear this, I want to stop

But I can't seem to fall, no heart, no reply
No reply

I have been hoping to get it together
There has been nobody who told me to stop
But I can't and I won't stop, no heart, no reply
I just can't face it anymore

I am so shallow and
I love you better inspiral denial has made me give up
Cause I can't and I won't, confide to what I'm toldcc
I just can't face it anymore

Following the sun, look at her eyes
I suddenly know it's a sign but I can be wrong
Oh, I have been hoping I was wrong
Thought I had been hoping all along, but it can be
It can be

For I can't seem to find, no heart, no reply
I just can't face it anymore

2: Mistaken

Last night I was screaming stuff
I had been mistaken
All shaking, I just couldn't stop
You told me that I was going like

Well, lately I have come to see
I'm trying and trying
I'm fed up with this side of me
It;s happening and I was going like...

Mmm, gotta get it off me, until I let it go
And catch the shadows down the wall

Last night I was screaming stuff
I had been completely mistaken what you said to me
You told me that I was going like...

Mmm, gotta get it off me, until I let it go
Mmm, gotta get it off me, until I let you know
And catch the shadows down the wall

3: Firefly

You're like a firefly, trying hard to give a sign
And when it's getting there, you shine a light
Everybody always worked hard and we were pleased with ourselves
And someone took away our hungry hearts

I can never do it to you do to you
Seems so easy just to make it right make it right
I think it's time for something new now something new
So I keep looking for a firefly
Just to make it right, just to make it right
Just to make it right, just to make it

Two sides to what I see, can't stick to this belief
I'm in the middle of conspiracies
One tells me he can be tied to what I feel is right
The other turns his face away from me

I can never do it to you do it to you
It seems so easy just to make it right make it right
I think it's time for something new now something new
So I keep looking for my firefly
Just to make it right, just to make it right
Just to make it right, just to make it

4: I don't know you

This one goes out to the other
For I just never realised
How I used to take it all on me
Despite the fact it wasn't mine

I don't know you like I used to
I can't accept this state of mind
It don't feel to good , I can assure you
To know I never really tried

I'm not begging you, no I'm not going to
Can't find the words today, won't help me anyway
I've got a comment to, oh what's become of you
It's just a bit too late
Now you're gone

This one goes out to the other
For I just never realise
How I use to take it all on me
Despite the fact it wasn't mine

I'm not begging you, no I'm not going to
Can't find the words today, won't help me anyway
I've got a comment to, oh what's become of you
It's just a bit too late
Now you're gone

5: Happy

She is happy when she is all alone
She's not that hyperactive
No, she don't need the phone tonight
No, she'd rather stay inside

How she worries, just like the most of us
About something real stupid
And when it really gets her down
You don't see her much around
How can I hope I'll get ready to cope with the world
I'm having trouble just believing one day this world will be gone
So what's the good about achieving

She is happy when she is left alone
She's way to independent, no she don't need to see the light
She is high as a satellite

How can I hope I get ready to cope with the world
I'm having trouble just believing one day this world will be gone
So what's the good about achieving, believing

6: In your eyes

Hey, mister Moonshine shines too
Wanna figure out what I'm gonna do
First I'm gonna watch the stars, they are all around me
Tell me where you are

Hey, this is what I'll do, draw you in the sky, turning into you
I'm gonna go the way, I saw the other day, I'm sure that I had been there
It wasn't all that great

Maybe I don't wanna go, I don't wanna know
You made me realize I'm just a star in your eyes
I don't wanna go, I don't wanna know
You made me realize I'm just a star in your eyes

Hey, mister Moonshine shines too
I don't really know what I'm gonna do
Im gonna go the way, I saw the other day, I'm sure that I had been there
It wasn't all that great

Maybe I don't wanna go, I don't wanna know
You made me realize I'm just a star in your eyes
I don't wanna go, I don't wanna know
You made me realize I'm just a star in your eyes
In your eyes, in your eyes, in your eyes
In your eyes

7: Ocean sounds

Life is sweet and sweet is life
Things you see, along the line
Hurry up, come figure out
What's behind, a million clouds

All in time, we hang around
Let it slide, in ocean sounds
Hurry up, come figure out
What's behind, a million clouds

I got my feet in the grave, but my mind is young
I wanna talk about the odds that have brought me down
There's a crack in the paint, but I'm not to blame
Well sure enough your man can rearrange

I've been bound to come around, come and see
I wanna talk about the rules, you layed on to me
There's a hole in the ground, where the ocean sounds
Well sure enough your man has been around

Ocean sounds, ocean sounds

8: Everybody knows

Everybody knows there's a dream that makes us all feel good
Well I haven't had it for some time
I believe that it was something about love
But I cannot see the details anymore

Tell us 'bout your dream and the million things that you go and see
That I gotta say you've done allright
By the measures of society today
And I guess that's what you wanted anyway
Everybody's got it all, the food is on the table, daddy's coming home
Oh I wanna be surprised, you're better off dead allright

Never wanted to relax like you, I don't care about the dreams you dream
I don't need to make excuses all the time
All I wanted was some piece of the action
Everybody's got it all, the food is on the table, daddy's coming home
Oh I wanna be surprised, you're better off dead allright

Everybody's got it all, the facts are on the table, daddy's had it done
Oh I wanna be surprised, you're better off dead allright

9: Sad boy sam

I believe I got a temper
Everytime you read my mind
I just feel defenseless
So black and blind

Never really had this tension
Trying to restrain myself
Never payed attention
Tied up like hell

Oh but it can never be the same
You should know better now
We've been going over this again just like before
I'll be leaving all the things behind, should have been ready now
Hey, I will never stop, I will decide for myself if I was wrong

I believe I lost my senses
Thought that you could read my mind
Never payed attention
So fuckin' blind
I have enough of this tension
Trying to behave myself
I feel defenseless
Tied up like hell

Oh that it can never be the same
You should know better now
We've been going over this again just like before
I'll be leaving all the things behind, should have been ready now
 I will never stop, I will decide for myself if I was wrong

10: Hardest time

This is the hardest time, I can't define it's never easy 
When you said goodbye
We're all inclined to act like nothing's wrong

I am the one, he said
Who never had a proper reason to be sad or down
But now I found I've got them all in one

I can't define and nothing should be wrong
I can't decide until I feel it

I am the one, he said
Who never had a proper reason until we said goodbye
We're all inclined to act like nothing's wrong

11: Rocket

Does anybody know this illnes that I've caught
I feel so devastated like I haven't slept all night
And oh what I've got has paralysed my thoughts
Somebody reassure me that I'm gonna be all right

I wanna see you tonight
You gotta know what a fool can cover up inside
You gotta know what I'd do if that would make it right

Just every now and then it comes to me again
It comes to me and puts me in the middle of it all
And oh when you know, don't tell it with a blow
Somebody reassure me that I'm gonna be all right

I wanna see you tonight
You gotta know what a fool can cover up inside
You gotta know what I'd do if that would make it right
You gotta know what a fool can cover up inside
You gotta know what I'd do if that would make it right

You gotta know what a fool can cover up inside
You gotta know what I'd do if that would make it right
You gotta know what a fool can cover up inside
You gotta know what I'd do if that would make it right

12: Sore spots

I stop, my memory  is nothing but a gallery of sore spots
Can't you see I carry on but I don't wanna hold on to the retrospective life
 I don't wanna overestimate this time, time, time, time

It's stuck, that's for sure
Can't do this, follow that, life is so imperfect, almost human, just like me
We live our lives, this is why we hold on to reanimated lives
I don't wanna overestimate this time, time, time

13: Hey day

Hey, you know, this shiver I've got, this shiver I've got, it's part of a legacy
For all the times that I know, have never be good to me
But when you go and try to sort it out, I'm kind of worried where it leaves me

Hey, how long can this go on, can this go on, I wanna be free again
For all the days that I've known, the days that I've known, will never return again
And when you go and try to sort it out
I'm kind of worried whether I'll be part of the world too, part of the world too

Hey, you know, this shiver I've got, this shiver I've got, it's part of a legacy
For all the times that I've known have never be good to me
But when you go and try to sort it out
I'm kind of worried whether I'll be part of the world too, part of the world too

14: This cannibal

It sure has been wonderful, radical
I think I'll be sad till you come to me
But let it be, I won't let you go

Love is a cannibal, like  Hannibal
The speed of my heartbeat is killing me, is eating me
I won't let you go, I can't help myself, the feeling's all wrong
So why don't you call when the cannibal's gone

I wear no aureole, it's typical
It's all in the mind if you want it to
I'll see you through, I won't let you go
I can't help myself, the feelings are wrong
I won't let this happen, I can't go along
I won't let you go, I can't always hide
So why don't you call when the cannibal's gone

I won't let you go, I can't always hide
I won't let this happen, the feelings are wrong
The feelings are wrong
I can't help myself, so why don't you call when the cannibal's gone
