CHANGE
Shout it out, let her cry, the table is turning – so Is the tide for you – but this change could be good.
Comfort zone left at home - in a box - where they put you
Speak up speak up
Wake up wake up
Walk out
And you’re so scared you can see it in your eyes – you don’t wanna run – you just – you wanna hide -
They only listen to the system
Where’s it gonna get them
With their white picket fence
And their mortgage sentence x 2

Trapped
03:28

It’s like and ooh – It’s like an Ahh – you’re feeling fine but so far away
He can’t see what you do – he turns around – ooh you’ll stray
Like a dog, trapped for so long – trapped pull those strings – trapped pull those strings – let it ring
You’re so cold, trapped, all along, trapped, all along, trapped – while he’s looking away you whisper
You taste so sweet that I could fall for you – just like a treat oh let me unwrap you … x 4
He doesn’t need to know
You look around – and hes away – It takes two to unravel what we had –
You play your game – so then so does he …
Like a dog, trapped for so long – trapped pull those strings – trapped pull those strings – let it ring
You’re so cold, trapped, all along, trapped, all along, trapped – while he’s looking away you whisper
You taste so sweet I could fall for you – just like a treat oh let me unwrap you … x 4
He doesn’t need to know

Blue Eyes
03:27

Life let you down, hold out your hand, smile to the preacher that was the teachers pet.
Look at them now so different to you, while you’re partying it up – they’re staying in school.
Forget manners, what about me? Well get up off your ass and make it happen
The harder I work- so lucky I get – if you want luck you wouldn’t know it if it showed up!
Oh Blue Blue Bl Bl Blue Blue Bl Bl Blue eyes that’s you, with a Blue Blue Bl Bl Blue Blue Bl Bl Blue smile too.
Ska
Talk about your problems, your first world problems – I cannot decide what to eat. When I see your problems, your first world problems a bigger picture is what you need. X 2
Oh Blue Blue Bl Bl Blue Blue Bl Bl Blue eyes that’s you, with a Blue Blue Bl Bl Blue Blue Bl Bl Blue smile too. X 2

Lie to yourself
02:45
|
|||
Fire in the hole and your soul took all you had – no respect for me – or them
Centred in yourself – I’m so tired of you bringing them down – no respect for them
Lie to yourself enough and you’ll believe
Eyes wide blind you can’t see …. Oooh … stuck in Green envy
Pity party on the floor – you’ll tell that story, live the glory – but was that really you?
Cause when I told it you were listening – every detail, every glisten – so stole my story too
CHORUS
It’s alright for you – you took it while you could. I shouldn’t past your games but I couldn’t. So stab me in the back and pour salt in my wound – Your smile is just a front – now I see through.
CHORUS

Money
03:15
|
|||
Everyone’s living day to day
People stuck in a big rat race
They don’t know they could grow
Do something differently
Existing not living or chasing their dream
It’s the Money Money Money – makes the world go round
And now you’re listening with your head in the clouds
And they don’t worry –well it all comes down today – you gotta get away!
Everyone’s living office space
People trapped in a big rat race
They don’t know they could grow
Do something differently
Existing not living or chasing their dream
It’s the Money Money Money – makes the world go round
And now you’re listening with your head in the clouds
And they don’t worry –well it all comes down today – you gotta get away!
So follow me – and be free – cause I’m in the right place, right time.
Right people, Ooh I’m feeling fine.
Money Money Money – Money Money Money - makes the world go round
Money Money Money – Money Money Money - makes the world go round
Money Money Money – Money Money Money - makes the world go round
Money Money Money – Money Money Money - makes the world go round
It’s the Money Money Money – makes the world go round
And now you’re listening with your head in the clouds
And they don’t worry –well it all comes down today – you gotta get away!

What I wanted to say
03:43
|
|||
Well its gone, all the time we invested, down the drain, cause you can’t communicate.
You chose to steal – when I’m weak. Shoot me with your gun … Bang Bang -when I sleep – oh!
What I wanted to say to you, came out in tears that covered my words soo true – that I practiced - sooo many times – soo many times x 2
Try to trick … me again … play the king – but you’re a joker … Betray a friend … you’ll be lonely in the end - Oh
Playing it over again and again x 3
In my head
What I wanted to say to you, came out in tears that covered my words soo true – that I practiced - sooo many times – soo many times x 2

Ditched
03:41
|
|||
Stomachs in twists, you’ve just been ditched, hole in your heart, tears you apart, sweet memory, still so angry.
And you learn, you go along but you don’t forget and you forgive but its changed, you feel betrayed and you smile – but its half full cause you changed that little bit to a person you didn’t know.
Still you go back, back – but you know that its gonna end
It’s like a force – a force – that slowly sucks you in
And all your friends can see – they’ll need to pick up the pieces
Still you go back, back – still you go back.
Oh and it hurts – its getting in the way x 2
Oh and it hurts x 8
But you couldn’t see it – blowing in the wind – like a star outta gas – cant come back again – no it can’t come back again. Still you go, still you go back
Chorus
Stomachs in twists, you’ve just been ditched, hole in your heart, tears you apart, sweet memory, still so angry.

Awkward Eyes
04:28
|
|||
Awkward eyes – there’s no smile – when you see that its me coming through the door …
Would it kill you to try to pretend for a long time – we were friends
You held it in your hand – with that strained knowing look – like sand – it slipped right through.
Don’t turn your back around, glimpse my eye and try to stay
Don’t turn your back around – it’s a hard one – to stick to.
Awkward eyes – there’s no smile – when you see that its me coming through the door …

Poison Me
03:49
|
|||
Poison me and take all I have
No regrets you think you’re the Man
Not Me, I won’t take your greed or your jealousy
No, Not Me, I won’t take your greed
Silence where, we used to talk
Now fear has left its mark
Trapped inside a fragile mind
You’re not getting out
Easily – I won’t take your greed or your jealousy
No, Not Me, I won’t take your greed
And your eyes – say about a million words
And your eyes – never sleep
Cause your mind – is full of suffering
And you can’t get out easily …
So …. Poison me and take all I have
No regrets you think you’re the Man
Not Me, I won’t take your greed or your jealousy
No, Not Me, I won’t take your greed or your jealousy

Where the hell were you?
02:57
|
|||
Scars speak louder than words – would you listen … no
What to do when the men in blue screwed up so far … where to begin?
And I’m haunted by – your last cry
We will fix this – we will fix , we will fix this, we will fix this sister …child
Look into the eye of the enemy. So easy it would be with a bullet.
It’s one for one – It’s one for one – It’s one for one – I cry … Oh I cry
CHORUS
A bar (picked)
So now attentions held where the hell were you?
When the warning signs cried out … where the hell were you?
Now a daughters lost her Mum, where the hell were you?
Oh he did it – he’s the one – Where the hell were you?
2nd CHORUS
All the secrets and lies – where the hell were you?
He’s the devil in disguise – where the hell were you?
Well there’s something after life – so to hell with you x 2
You can run but you can’t hide. Bigger things will get you
Guilty in life and you can’t hide x 2
CHORUS
Scars speak louder than words – We all listened child – we will fix this sister child…

Free from you
03:00
|
|||
Set me on fire - cause you're holding the match
You always had it you're way - so lets end it like that
Making a trail of fuel that leads my way
Now you're discovering - you can't handle me
Falling much further than before
It's not if but when it breaks
Dancing on a wire
Falling much further than before
Cold without a shadow ….
I'll pick up my life you tried to steal
I'll take my time - till you're just a name
Shame on you – and your fragile mind
Free from you, I'm free from you, I'm free from you
