What kind of pace are we living now?
Watching wars live, via satellite
You carry a gun but no smoking inside
Escape disease yet I could get shot tonight

You
Shoot
You
Lose

The time has come and you're all alone
And you know you're not dreaming
It's heaven's door, you're ringing on the bell
Will they let you in, or you going to hell?

I'll take a war, I'll take mine with fries
Medium rare, wash a coke down with ice
Swallow it down no time to digest
What do you know, I'm feeling hungry again

You
Shoot
You
Loose

The time has come and you're all alone
And you know you're not dreaming
It's heaven's door, you're ringing on the bell
Will they let you in, or you going to hell?

It's beautiful, I'm a fool, tried to save you from the
rainy days
Looking back down the track I'm the one who carried
all your weight
Yes you lie all the time and I don't believe you
Ba ba ba, ba ba ba, ba ba ba ba
Dodging blame catching planes ride my tail to freedom
Ba ba ba, ba ba ba, ba ba ba ba

You don't know what it is you got
You don't know where you're going
You don't know what is right from wrong
All that you do is lie so
Just get out of my life
You're passing the buck
Get in, just hold up your hands and take the shame
Just get out you're lying again take the blame
Just get out of my life and be a man

Yeah yeah yeah

Look at you, what you do? My ears are burning from the
tales you spin
Cracks me up that you love telling people all the lies
you made
I'm the one that tried time and time again to please
ya
Ba ba ba, ba ba ba, ba ba ba ba
Forgetting me and misery, what did you ever give me
back?
Ba ba ba, ba ba ba, ba ba ba ba

Bridge
Chorus

If you can
Hold up your hands
Understand

Chorus

If you can
Hold up your hands
Understand

Did we lose ourselves again?
Did we take in what’s been said?
Did we take the time to be,
all the things we said we’d be?
So we bury hopes in sand
And my future’s in my hands

It means nothing
It means nothing

You can find yourself apart
But you leave in which one you want
Coz they love you all the same
They just go by different names
Did ya fly your flag today?
Are you proud or just ashamed?

It means nothing
It means nothing
It means nothing
It means nothing
It means nothing
If I haven’t got you
If I haven’t got you
If I haven’t got you
If I haven’t got you

The sun sets in the sky
You’re the apple of my eye
If the bomb goes off again
Blows my brain around the train
And I hope that I’m with you
Coz I wouldn’t know what to do

It means nothing
It means nothing
It means nothing
It means nothing
It means nothing
If I haven’t got you
If I haven’t got you
If I haven’t got you
If I haven’t got you

Woke up with the shakes on the bathroom floor
The sun is shining, I felt like drinking some more
Sunday's takeaway welded on my elvis tray
It's a pound a can in the garden all day

Start at noon, keep on going through til two
Dabbing speed like a monkey in a fucking zoo
Get your girl in the bathroom, after flirting all day
It's the time of your life on Bank Holiday Monday

Street Fighting
Yet some day
You get out

Out of those mondays
Yes some say
They were the best days
Out of our minds
Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah

8 O'clock time to catch the next bus to town
When the drink is in, the wit is most definitely out
Late bars, fight starts, between my brother and I
Get kicked out so we hold tight and take it outside

Dodging cars, new scars, fighting out on the road
Knees me in the chest my head and arse hits the floor
Swallowed tongue, what we done, someone's hand in my mouth
Got to pull it back out on a Bank Holiday Monday

Street Fighting
Yet some day
You get out

Out of those mondays
Yes some say
They were the best days
Out of our minds
Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah

I want to stick him real hard with a kitchen knife
But we share the same bed in my mam's house tonight
I wait, I wait, I wait, until he walks up the lane
It's all the fun of the fair on Bank Holiday Monday

Street Fighting
Yet some day
You get out

Out of those mondays
Yes some say
They were the best days
Out of our minds
Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah

Outside it's summer, indoors it's cool
It's just after 3pm, I see kids leaving school
Policeman are walking, walking in lines
Tight side by side
A young boy's died

15 years old, slow walking alone
They stole his phone, he never got home
Three boys in hoods
A warm summer's day
Stuck him and killed him and then ran away

Now there's red spray paint slashed on the wall
R.I.P. Baby, we love you from all
Just that one moment, ended their days
Outside my house on Daisy Lane...

I don’t know why I let you go
You said you’d wait I said I’d hope you would
We talked ‘til late until we walked away
What’s meant to be will be the same

And I feel like stone
Yes I feel ice cold
I pick myself up from the ground
Sick to death of lying down
And now I have to find you once again

You’re in my soul
You’re in my mind
But I don’t know where you are now
You’re in my soul
You’re in my mind
But I don’t know where you are now

Driving round and round until its dawn
To look for you in rooms we used to go
I held you back, I had to set you free
But now I know what’s meant to be

And I feel like stone
Yes I feel ice cold
I pick myself up from the ground
Sick to death of lying down
And now I have to find you once again

You’re in my soul
You’re in my mind
But I don’t know where you are now
You’re in my soul
You’re in my mind
But I don’t know where you are now

You’re in my soul
You’re in my mind
But I don’t know where you are now
You’re in my soul
You’re in my mind
But I don’t know where you are now

Stop tap drink back eye on you
you're out to find that something new
am i the fly you want trapped in your web

i've seen that look a thousand times
your innocence can make you blind
i can show you round a block or two

let me introduce you to my friends
let me buy you things, let me in your head
let us fly away let this never end
my friend
my friend

kick back think back look at you
you got the look you got the shoes
i'd like to fill your world and be with you
your lust for life just turns me on
a star above that's shining on
think i'd like to see the world like you

let me introduce you to my friends
let me buy you things, let me in your head
let us fly away let this never end
my friend
my friend

let me introduce you to my friends
let me buy you things, let me in your head
let us fly away let this never end
my friend
my friend

Oocha
Click click then you hang the phone up
After talking late into the daylight
Telling stories how we'd like to do it
The mind can be a playground if you use it
She could go down on me in a theatre
I'd stroke her head, look round over my shoulder
We'd get kicked out we'd walk along the pier
I'd try to get my hand under her jumper

Yes I could lose ya
If I choose to
Why would I wanna do that?
Yes I could lose ya
If I choose to
Why would I wanna do that?

Drip drip the rain upon my window
Wanna lay down still and just be near you
Get the keys and take the Karmann Ghia
Along the coast to buy a couple of beers
She could dance and look across the water
Dream of ways to run away together
The sun sets and glows across the ocean
Shooting star reminds us that it feels good

Yes I could lose ya
If I choose to
Why would I wanna do that?
Yes I could lose ya
If I choose to
Why would I wanna do that?

Mary is my bright red star
She caught the train to work in the morning when she got up
And then she'd call me up, just to wake me up
But she's alright
She's alright

Mary is my bright red star
She likes to look at the pink sky just before the day turns dark
And then she'd call me up, just to wind me up
But she's alright
She's alright

Mary is my bright red star
She wears a hat in the sun, pink nails and her bleach blond locks
And then she'd call me up, so we could meet up
But she's alright
She's alright

Mary is my bright red star
We just talk into the night about nothing in particular
And then she'd hang me up, until she'd wake me up
But she's alright
She's alright
She's alright
She's alright

We're falling now, can't make it stop
Our arms are open for the thing we want
But what we want just can't have
What could've been but the timing's bad
Don't cry cry baby now
You're my my Lady Luck

We follow the signs to make us meet
Into the night, to places no-one sees
I never learned from looking back
You picked me up from off my back
But now it seems our time has passed

Don't cry cry baby now
You're my my Lady Luck
You picked me up right off my back
I'd fallen down you brought me up
We shared the night until the morning comes to take us
Back away to where, we chose to belong
But maybe we're wrong but we gotta be strong
There's too much to loose
And maybe we're fools, who knows
Who knows, who knows

We follow the signs to make us meet
Into the night, to places no-one sees

We swapped our lines late last night then
we started talking truths til noon
Yeah noon
We fantasize of kidnap tie me up and tease me in your boots
Yeah you

I like to feel the crush it makes me feel alive
To have you in my life, than not it just feels right
And when the sun goes down the moonlight paints the night
That's when the sleeping dog awakes and comes alive

I like to fight for the right to light up a cigarette for you
Boo hoo
Although the timing's not right, my head spins around and round for you
Yeah you

I like to feel the crush it makes me feel alive
To have you in my life, than not it just feels right
And when the sun goes down the moonlight paints the night
That's when the sleeping dog awakes and comes alive

Come back now
Come back now
Come back and stay
Don't ever go
Don't ever go
It's alright, it's alright it makes me feel alive
To have you in my life, than not it just feels right
I'm alive

I don't know why
I don't know what is wrong
Oh no
Is karma gonna get me?
At times that's all I see
It's not real

Wanna feel
Wanna feel, like I did before

Mornings I can't breathe
Wave crashes over me
And drowns me
Wind's running rings around me
It takes me time to see
What is real?

Wanna feel
Wanna feel
Like I did before
Like I did before

Time changes things
Like I never thought
Like I never saw?

Time changes me
I'm like I never was
Oh no

I'm looling back to what I was
I've seen my face right on the floor
And I love you, being around
I say it again, I'm not fucking around

I've seen in before
I'll see ut again
It's knocking my door
And it never pretends
I'm down on my knees
And I don't know where to go to find my way back home

I'm drowning
I'm drowning
I'm drowning
I'm drowning
