Make Up Your Mind 03:37
lyrics
buy track
How many times must we got through this I always though that we could resist I could try but I’d rather not I’m lost, just tell me what you want I can’t fight the feeling, I’ve got no reason to Tell me baby why am I losing you Make up your mind stop dragging me through this I’m sick of waiting on you to choose You got stopped and I am falling apart now You were gone and I am broken hearted How many times must we recite the motions We can pretend but it plays on our devotion There’s no logic it’s all desire She’s on my mind but I don’t know why I can’t fight the feeling, I’ve got no reason to Tell me baby why am I losing you Make up your mind stop dragging me through this I’m sick of waiting on you to choose You got stopped and I am falling apart now You were gone and I am broken hearted You got stopped and I am falling apart now You were gone and I am broken hearted You got stopped and I am falling apart now You were gone and I am broken hearted

Electric Fire 05:06
lyrics

there’s a burn in the atmosphere and smoke in the overhead there’s a spark running through the wires and a fuse leading to my bed someone get me out of here, i’m begging please this world’s not turning out for me there’s a buzz in the back of my mind that keeps screeching well into the night there’s a candle swelling in the dark but something but it don’t seem right there’s a contradiction constantly a message that has got me losing sleep i used to see colours in everything but now i’m wondering is anybody watching over me there’s a static all around the room and a feeling that will never die there’s a thought every now and then that’s started this electrical fire it’s a mystery they say to me i’m sorry friend but i do not accede there’s a thunder shaking up the walls someone’s sent for another crusade there’s a banner being waved around and an army chanting you’re not saved i see the irony in a crooked scheme i’m finding out anxiety makes beliefs i used to see colours in everything but now i’m wondering is anybody watching over me

Fade Away 03:49
lyrics
buy track
It’s the silence that draws me in whispering sweet nothings misery, oh misery, it’s only emptiness that i, i ever feel i could fake it and move on stumble through this broken world but i sit and wonder ‘bout every little thing so i, i’ll keep on spinning hey what are we waiting for the engines are running but our feet are resting on the floor and it seems time has no melody there’s no one to save us we all, we all fade away war is rising from the fringe i don’t dare break the sound i’m left alone, with my, my wandering mind but i, i’m hanging on hey what are we waiting for the engines are running but our feet are resting on the floor and it seems time has no melody there’s no one to save us we all, we all fade away

Power Out 03:20
lyrics
buy track
Let me out I’ve been crawling on my knees for you I’ve been cut and bruised from you How long must I search for something to rest my mind All is lost now, All is lost now I’m calling out, I’m calling out take me I don’t feel The power’s gone out of my life Are we losing tough or killing time I’m sleepwalking I’m always trying but there’s nothing All is lost now, All is lost now I’m calling out, I’m calling out take me

Drop the Cause 03:35
lyrics
buy track
Here I’m trying to fool myself into something somewhere else I’m the grey-line, i am the fence and now it’s started and i disconnect again and again i’ve lost control, i miss the taste i don’t know how much longer i can wait i’m losing touch and i’m losing time i drop the cause and i give up the fight i’m still getting by i feel like nothing but a cheat and a liar i know what’s coming and i’m getting tired i’ve got two shiny pennies for my lifeless soul i used to have reality but i’ve lost my hold i’ve lost my hold i’ve lost my hold i’ve lost my hold

Still 03:43
lyrics

It’s too late I’m done Couldn’t save my heart It’s you I love It’s tearing me apart Love is lost you’re all I want The days are still now, winter’s come It’s been so long I’ve only seen Sunless skies and lonely ghosts Come back to me I cried out oh hope Where have you gone I couldn’t see your face Couldn’t feel your breath I tried i tried

The Star 04:50
lyrics
buy track
I’ve heard the angels can fake it they say they’re watching but sometimes they slip up whatever happened to our memories we were wishing, we were dreaming leaving our lives don’t feel much like sleeping and i wish we all could fly did you see the mothers in the world weeping and the children wondering why lives weren’t for keeping i said a prayer for someone to guide you away from your fears i hope the lights in the lighthouse were leading whoever chose our time could be taken or that wishes on stars were all just wasted
