I am a pain in you're ass
And I'm wondering how long it's gonna last
Be my mirror, be my friend,
Be the workhouse of the energy
I twist your arm to spin

Everyday, like a power station
You know it isn't good
I know you're burning too much wood
Oh, and you burn out
The twisted irony is
Your ashes come home to me
Come home to me

So we take a walk
To make some sense
And I'm wondering if you fancy my advance
I have pushed you
Way too far
And you say Fuck you little princess
Who the hell do you think you are?

Everyday, like a power station
You know it isn't good
You know you're burning too much wood
But I said if you burn out
The twisted irony is
Your ashes come home to me
Come home to me
Come home to me

Yeah well your ashes come home to me
Come home to me
Come home to me

You know well the circus gonna have you on a fucking mantelpiece
The mantelpiece
The mantelpiece

The girl and the ghost
Sit in the corner
The girl and the ghost
Seems they have a lot to say
The girl and the ghost
Haven't seen each other in 3 years
The girl and the ghost
Feel simple seconds slipped away
Slipped away

The ghost and the girl
Commonly connected by something bigger
A phenomenal set of the eternal trigger
That lets the light through that usually goes
Around and around and around

The girl and the ghost
Meet in the corridor
The girl and the ghost
They touch fingers and walk right through
The girl and the ghost
Feel so familiar and fearless
The girl and the ghost
Know each other like other people do whoa
Other people do
Other people do

The ghost and the girl
Commonly connected by something bigger
A phenomenal set of the eternal trigger
That lets the light through that usually
Ghost and the girl
Commonly connected by well something bigger
A phenomenal set of the eternal trigger
That lets the light through that usually goes
Around and around and around
usually goes
Around and around and around
usually goes around

I look up and the hills seem far away
But they still say
More than you
And on my back, I see the see clouds above
And they still love me
More than you

(Chorus)
And I know I don't have have to wait for words
I can walk away and listen to the birds
Listen to the birds
'Cause they don't sing the things I want to hear
They don't change
They stay the same
When I'm near you

But I would dearly love to run away
From your shadow
For just one day
Yes, I would dearly love to run away
From your shadow
For just one day

I don't ever want to steal your time
'Cause you seem fine
And I feel blue
And I dont want to say the things i do
'Cause I know I feel it more than you

(Chorus)

I would dearly love to run away
From your shadow
For just one day
Oh yes, I said, I would dearly love to run away
From your shadow
For just one day, just one day

Oh oh yea yea
I know i dont have to wat for you
I could turn around and find someone new
Find someone new
Someone that says the things I need to hear
Doesn't change, stays the same When I'm near

(Chorus)

Put your hands on the wheel
Let the golden age begin
Let the window down
Feel the moonlight on your skin
Desert wind, cool your aching head
Weight of the world
Drift away instead

Oh, these days I hardly get by
I don't even try

There's a treacherous road
With a desolated view
As distant lights
They hear their foreign view
Sun don't shine
Even when it's day
Drive all night
Just to feel like you're okay

Oh, these days I barely get by
I don't even try
I don't even try

If I was looking for you
Would you be easy to find
Would I be looking all night?
And if I got lost
Would you go looking for me?
Or would you be alright
On your own?

Oh in the light of day
It feels right
Comfortable to the bone
From head to toe
Gone the evening when the shadows fall
Will I call your name?
But it's not the same as having you here

If I was a second too late
Or a moment too soon
Or an hour too long
Tell me baby would you wait a bit longer?
I wonder if you would
Or would you be long gone?
Would you be long, would you be long

Oh in the light of day
It feels right
Comfortable to the bone
From head to toe
Gone the evening when the shadows fall
Will I call your name?
But it's not the same as having you here

Cause having you here
Is knowing your near
As a feeling you left
Is knowing you can
Cause whispering in your ear
As my hands in your hair
As knowing your there

Oh in the light of day
It feels right
Comfortable to the bone
From head to toe
Gone the evening when the shadows fall
Will I call your name?
But it's not the same as having you here

Since you've been gone
Gone to the dogs
In a round about way
You're still sing
Singing along
I can see it in your face

Everywhere you go
I'm there with you
Still part of you
Never let you go at it alone
If you do
I'll make sure you are standing on your feet
Cause life could be sweet

But now you're gone
Gone to the dogs
I don't know you like I did

So why don't you say
Say it out loud
All these things you hold inside of yourself
Holding on tight
As if you're frightened of the ride

Everywhere you go
It goes with you
Takes part of you
And never lets you go at it alone
If it would I know you could be so much more than this
And life could be bliss

I never hold you up
And no I'll never let you down
You know I do my best
If I ever held you up
No, you never let me down
You let yourself down, let me down

But now you're gone
Gone to the dogs
I don't know you like I did

The wind is cold tonight
Or so I am told
I don't really know
And as I kill my life
There's nothing left to show
How does that blow hit you?
And if I change am I denying what was said?
If I remain the same
am I creating greater problems instead?

Do you ever think you're being thought about?
Do you still believe we need to sort things out?
Does it matter now
All those things we said
I want to know can I still creep into your bed at night?
Leave your head alone

Well, the wind is cold tonight
Or so I am told
I don't really know, no
And as I kill my life
There's nothing left to show
How does that blow hit you?
And if I change am I denying what was said?
If I remain the same
am I creating greater problems instead?

Do you ever think you're being thought about?
Do you still believe we need to sort things out?
Does it matter now
All those things we said
I want to know can I still creep into your bed at night?
Leave your head alone

Don't wanna be second best,
Don't wanna stand in line,
Don't wanna fall behind.
Don't wanna get caught out,
Don't want to do without.
And then the lesson I must learn
Is that I've got to wait my turn.

Looks like I've gotta be hot and cold,
Gotta be taught and told,
Got to be good as gold.
But perfectly honestly,
I think it would be good for me.
Cos its a hindrance to my health if I'm a stranger to myself...

(Woah woah)
Miniature disasters and minor catastrophes,
Bring me to my knees.
Well I must be my own master,
Or a miniature disaster will be,
Will be the death of me.

I don't have to raise my voice,
Don't have to be underhand,
Just gotta understand.
That it's gonna be up and down,
Gonna be lost and found.
And then I can't take to the sky before I like it on the ground...

And I need to patient, And I need to be brave,
I need to discover how I need to behave,
And I'll find out the answers when I know what to ask,
But I'm speaking this wrong language, and everybodies talking too fast..

Miniature disasters and minor catastrophes,
Bring me to my knees.
Well I must be my own master,
Or a miniature disaster will be, will be (yeah yeah)
Well I've got to run a little faster
Or a miniature distaster will be, will be...ohh...
Well I need to know I'll last if a little
Miniature disaster hits me,
It could be the death of me.

A fire burns, Water comes,
You cool me down.
When I'm cold inside, You are warm and bright,
You know you are so good for me (yeah yeah)
With your child's eyes, You are more than you seem,
You see into space...
I see into your face...
The places you've been...
The things you have learned...
They sit with you so beautifully (yeah)

You know there's no need to hide away,
You know I tell the truth,
We are just the same.
I can feel everything you do,
Everything you say,
Even when your miles away.
Cos I am me the universe & you.

Just like stars burning bright,
Making holes in the night,
We are building bridges.

You know there's no need to hide away,
You know I tell the truth,
We are just the same.
I can feel everything you do,
Everything you say,
Even when your miles away.
Cos I am me the universe & you (ohh...I'm the universe and you...)

When you're all on your own,
I'll send you a sign,
Just so you know...
I am me the universe & you,
The universe & you.
The universe & you.
I am the universe & you.

I want you between me and the feeling i get when i miss you,
but everything here's telling me i should be fine,
so why is it so, it bothers below that im missing you every time?

i got used to you whispering things to me into the evening,
we followed the sun, and it's colours, and left this world,
it seems to me, that i'm definately, hearing the best that i've heard,.

so throw me a rope, to hold me in place,
show me a clock, for counting my days, down,
cos everythings easier when you're beside me,
come back and find me,
cos i feel alone.

and whenever you go it's like holding my breath under water,
i have to admit that i kinda like it when i do,
oh but i got to be, unconditionally,
unafraid, of my days, without you,

so throw me a rope, to hold me in place,
show me a clock, for counting my days, down,
'cos everything easier when you're beside me,
come back and find me,
whenever i'm falling, you're always behind me,
come back and find me,
cos everythings easier when you're beside me,
come back and find me,
cos i feel alone
