Limits Lie

It's flooding over you now
Keep your chin up
I'm a hurricane
Came through the thunder
To drag you under
Make you take the blame
Remember me forever
I'm the weather,
My tears are the rain
You're drowning together
I hope you're happy
Remember my name
Who knows where your limit
Where your limit lies
You're given what you're given
And now the giver must die
I'm running
Catching up girl
Keep your feet up
I'm straight to the vein
You fall through the floors
And you take it all
And now you feel the rain
Rolling down your cheeks
Bleeding
Dripping to your feet
Keep breathing
Stay with me
Who knows where your limit
Where your limit lies
You're given what you're given
And now the giver must die
And the women
You've forgiven
Who left you behind
Know your limit
Where your limit
Where your limit lies
Lump in a throat
Too hard to swallow,
I go down cold for coming up tomorrow
I will leave tracks
The footsteps back
And the attack where I trapped the love that I had
Lump in a throat
Too hard to swallow,
I go down cold for coming up tomorrow
I will leave tracks
The footsteps back
And the attack where I trapped the love that I had
Lump in a throat
Too hard to swallow,
I go down cold for coming up tomorrow
I will leave tracks
The footsteps back
And the attack where I trapped the love that I had

Don't You Find

Don't you find
Some of the time
There is always someone on your mind
That shouldn't be at all
In any place or any kind
Don't you find
Some of the time
There is always someone on your mind
That shouldn't be at all
In any place or any kind
She sailed long ago
To a land far away
Overseas, she'll be
In a land of opportunity
I don't know where she'll go
I don't know how she'll be
I know that I see
Sweet young thing one day before I go
And I give what I've got
And what I've got, I got to give
And I'm still where I live
We're nothing all the years
And I fall from it all
And I lose as I win
And I'll know where I go
It's got nothing more for me no more
Don't you find
Some of the time
There is always someone on your mind
That shouldn't be at all
In any place or any kind
Don't you find
Some of the time
There is always someone on your mind
That shouldn't be at all
In any place or any kind
Don't you find

Love she sees apart from me
Possessed behind the eyes
Apart from frightening
The moaning and biting
Seems to be a nice guy
And I know what she thinks
When she looks at me
When she looks with such despair
You're not the only one around here
Who needs a bit of fresh air
'Cause I'm a sad sack
Post teen
Could have been a love machine
No dream
Concrete
Walking like a zombie
Like a zombie
And I'm a coal train
Fast lane
Caught up in a dirty rain
No pain, no gain
Working like a zombie
Like a zombie
Well this old place here
Man, it's falling apart
She's on the road as she goes
But she won't get far
I'm on a show to parole
To the toad in a hole
I've gotta grow some roots
Gotta prop up the bar
I've got bloodshot eyes
And there's blood in my teeth
I've got a ripped up jacket
And a friend who's a thief
Well, I'm a coughing out my mouth
Trying to pull it out
But the fire inside keeps burning
Burning out
'Cause I'm a sad sack
Post teen
Could have been a love machine
No dream
Concrete
Walking like a zombie
Like a zombie
And I'm a coal train
Fast lane
Caught up in a dirty rain
No pain, no gain
Working like a zombie
Like a zombie
Oh, you're running the situation
Don't be afraid to be a friend
'Cause I won't hurt you girl
Or leave you unsaid
You make me live enough to love again
'Cause I'm a sad sack
Post teen
Could have been a love machine
No dream
Concrete
Walking like a zombie
Like a zombie
And I'm a coal train
Fast lane
Caught up in a dirty rain
No pain, no gain
Working like a zombie
Like a zombie
'Cause I'm a sad sack
Post teen
Could have been a love machine
No dream
Concrete
Walking like a zombie
Like a zombie
And I'm a coal train
Fast lane
Caught up in a dirty rain
No pain, no gain
Working like a zombie
Like a zombie

The Prophet

There's fire in her eyes in the altercation
She blames her poverty on her parents generation
She says they sniffed it up their nose, now they want our payments
It's fucking cold in here, the landlord is trying to make us vagrants
And jack our whiskey, buddy hits him with an iron fist
The landlord goes down swinging while you drink your buddies piss
I don't know what to do now that I'm definitely on a list
I just sit batch and brew with coca cola communists
I'm glad you came and turned up next to me
Like a grenade with a pin out at the party
You're like a fucking hurricane next to me
There's fire on the fringe
Whittle them down, down
I think she lost her looks to the beauty and terror
She says her friends are fucked and in the fairest of weather
She asked me is it painless
Am I humoring the brainless
Being young and drunk and all fucked up and being in entertainment
I don't ask the questions, I don't write the rules
I'm up for suggestions, I will follow you through
It cant be any worse than what I've been up to
It cant be any worse than what I've been up to
I'm glad you came and turned up next to me
Like a grenade with a pin out at the party
You're like a fucking hurricane next to me
There's fire on the fringe
Whittle them down, down
I don't know what it is that you're doing to me
I haven't cracked a smile since '93
She says the pretty girl, girl place to be
No shit, Sherlock, shoot them down, down, down
I don't ask the questions, I don't write the rules
I'm up for suggestions, I will follow you through
It cant be any worse than what I've been up to
It cant be any worse than what I've been up to
I don't ask the questions, I don't write the rules
I'm up for suggestions, I will follow you through
It cant be any worse than what I've been up to
It cant be any worse than what I've been up to
I'm glad you came and turned up next to me
Like a grenade with a pin out at the party
You're like a fucking hurricane next to me
There's fire on the fringe
Whittle them down, down
I don't know what it is that you're doing to me
I haven't cracked a smile since '93
She says the pretty girl, girl place to be
No shit, Sherlock, shoot them down, down, down

Mary Lee

Whenever I look out the window
I see her leave
Whenever I sleep on the pillow
I hear her breathe
Whenever i look back
I can’t believe
What a stupid young boy I was to let Mary leave
Trade blows with the foes
Too young to grow
This skin just doesn't fit me
Too many souls have lost there
Hold on reality wearing these
So I took a pinch of mar, a pinch of my parr
And measured my own body
Now I got a suit of class made to last
Off a man off new bond street
We're thick as thieves, hearts on sleeves
Searching for memories
Blowing off steam, just 17
Forgetting where we've been
So I took a tip from my mar, a tip from my par
And walked around my dreams
Found in a car driving far
Away from places I've seen
Whenever I look out the window
I see her leave
Whenever I sleep on the pillow
I hear her breathe
Whenever I look back
I can’t believe
What a stupid young boy I was to let Mary leave

Trouble
02:56

Feel it in my feet
Feel it in the heat
There's trouble on the street
And the trouble starts to move your way now
Feel it in my feet
Feel it in the heat
There's trouble on the street
It's knock on wood, so move away now
Well, there I might lay low
Well, I guess we’ll wait and see
Wherever it is I go
It seems there's trouble finding me
Well, I know I got time to run
Well, I know I got time to breathe
But there's no time like the present
To make this trouble stand up and leave
So I say
Do da do do do the trouble
Dig up the down
And burst up the bubble-ubble
Shoot the loot, toot, well, there's trouble
Do the boogie down and move on the double-ubble
Do da do do do the trouble
Pick up the shovel
Dig up down the rubble-ubble
Do da do do well there's trouble
Do the boogie down and move on the double
So hold on
To what you've got
You can lose it fast in the dog days
So hold on
To what you've got
You can lose it fast in the rat race
Feel it in my feet
Feel it in the heat
There's trouble on the street
And the trouble starts to move your way now
Feel it in my feet
Feel it in the heat
There's trouble on the street
It's knock on wood, so move away now
Do da do do do the trouble
Dig up the down
And burst up the bubble-ubble
Shoot the loot, toot, well, there's trouble
Do the boogie down and move on the double-ubble
Do da do do do the trouble
Pick up the shovel
Dig up down the rubble-ubble
Do da do do well there's trouble
Do the boogie down and move on the double
Shoot, shoot, shoot
And there's trouble
Tin, tin, too many boots on the rubble
Shoot, shoot, shoot
And there's trouble
Just seen too many boots on the rubble
So hold on
To what you've got
You can lose it fast in the dog days
So hold on
To what you've got
You can lose it fast in the rat race

Rabbit Hole
03:39
|

So to a bid then hid by the buyer
Lift a lid on a kiss, take the piss
Then retire
Para said she’s dead under hand
She”ll always let you down when she knows that she can
Like an S A 80
My baby saved me then played me
And jammed in the sand
Like an essay she tried to correct me
She meant to protect me
But only betrayed me now
You're too proud to call
Guess I never knew you at all
You stoop low
I got high
Tonight
Love it how she trips and stumbles
Goes see Alice in the palace to crumble
Love it how she trips to tumble
Go on rolling down the rabbit hole
Still know you can call me whenever
I’m always round town, man
I’ll be round forever
I'll take the blame and I'll take the weather
I'll travel overseas
Sell the snow back to the favelas
A magnanimous last gesture
Only for the sake of prosperity
It's unanimous
I'll arrest her
Four days in the cells of the Bailey now
You're too proud to call
Guess I never knew you at all
You stoop low
I got high
Tonight
Love it how she trips and stumbles
Goes see Alice in the palace to crumble
Love it how she trips to tumble
Go on rolling down the rabbit hole
Who noticed the problems
In Jennifer Bennett's head
Swear she’s not the same person I grew up with
She's not the same person I met
Who noticed the problems
In Jennifer Bennett's head
Swear she’s not the same person I grew up with
She's not the same person I met
Love it how she trips and stumbles
Goes see Alice in the palace to crumble
Love it how she trips to tumble
Go on rolling down the rabbit hole

Sometimes I feel like there's someone in my head
Sometimes I feel like there's someone in my head
Sometimes I feel like that someone has a name
Sometimes I feel like he wants me dead
Peter don’t believe in love
Peter doesn't like this song
Peter piss electric fence
Peter doesn't like my friends
Peter doesn't believe in God
Peter just falls apart
Every time she hears you say
Hears you say
Jamie, what you on about
Lost them shake
Retake, retake hate
Wylin up, Peter isn't going nowhere
Juiced in, juiced out
Sniffs it out, shoots about town with the rocking
Such cool hair
Shouts to the sister from the back bone gutter
Look him up, down
Someone better go get her
Use it up, Peter's gonna rock this summer
If know one else does it then Peter's gonna
Peter don’t believe in love
Peter doesn't like this song
Peter piss electric fence
Peter doesn't like my friends
Peter doesn't like your band
Peter says you all sound bland
Peter wants to fuck your girl
Peter wants to fuck the world
Peter doesn't like the numpties
Making lots of money
Off my ideas then calling them their own
Peter doesn't say he’s pretty
In fact, damn, he's ugly
He doesn't like company
He’s drinking alone
Screams at the telly to the jukebox fodder
Someone come and get me
When you need your join under and I
Life savers live forever up a level
Peter's coming for you
Gonna hide in the treble
Peter don’t believe in love
Peter doesn't like this song
Peter piss electric fence
Peter doesn't like my friends
Peter doesn't believe in God
Peter just falls apart
Every time she hears you say
Hears you say
Jamie, what you on about

Born of the green
Brave to the love
It's heart in the guts
I’m gonna grip to the rail
I’m hung and I’m hooked
Fixing a snare she sticks her root down
On a meager frame
One is the with
And one is with out
Perceiving a ghost
I’m gonna stick to the trail
I want get in
I want to get out
Fixing a snare she sticks her root down
On a meager frame
How can we love like this
Guess life is like a roller coaster
In life, love gnawed at my skin
Guess nothing, I should never trust her
I don’t know where I've been
Think nothing of a loving leave you
Don't know nothing about him
But I know you've been seen out together
Born of the green
Brave to the love
It's heart in the guts
I’m gonna grip to the rail
I’m hung and I’m hooked
Fixing a snare she sticks her root down
On a meager frame
Am I strong enough, baby, to hate
Set fire to the revolter
The shogun turned up late
On a runaway train trying to set a wager
And there's a light twice shining bright in my eyes
It's an oncoming train to take you
Out of my life and into his wife
I'll be waiting, hope I see you later
Born of the green
Brave to the love
It's heart in the guts
I’m gonna grip to the rail
I’m hung and I’m hooked
Fixing a snare she sticks her root down
On a meager frame
One is the with
And one is with out
Perceiving a ghost
I’m gonna stick to the trail
I want get in
I want to get out
Fixing a snare she sticks her root down
On a meager frame
Combination so slow
Walking on old egg shells
Singing with a murder of crows
Walking on old egg shells
Born of the green
Brave to the love
It's heart in the guts
I’m gonna grip to the rail
I’m hung and I’m hooked
Fixing a snare she sticks her root down
On a meager frame
One is the with
And one is with out
Perceiving a ghost
I’m gonna stick to the trail
I want get in
I want to get out
Fixing a snare she sticks her root down
On a meager frame

They Told Me it Rained
04:28

Between the birth cry and the death wail
There's just houses
So lavish in your anguish
I can tell
You're chasing your tail
Soaked through sheets
She didn't die quite right
So light up the leader
So light up the leader
So light up and leave her
To the juggernaut days
I give up
I give in
Just show me love
Just show me love
You never lost
I never win
Just show me love
Just show me love
And ask the boy who would be king
Just show me love
Just show me love
I'll never ask for anything
Just show me love
Just show me love
You can’t breath
Feed the black dog
Refuse to breed
Refuse to fuck
And oh, my love
She played a cool pin ball
They told me it rained
Yeah, they told me it rained
I give up
I give in
Just show me love
Just show me love
You never lost
I never win
Just show me love
Just show me love
And ask the boy who would be king
Just show me love
Just show me love
I'll never ask for anything
Just show me love
Just show me love
