Out on a limb running dry Life is a sin through these eyes You won't believe me this time That I'm going straight, going to try Awake and alone through the night Worried and sick for your life You can't protect me with lies The truth maybe hard but its right If you leave now we'll never know To what strengths this love could ever grow You'll call me up in years to come And say I think we got it oh so wrong This is your last chance to call You never believed in goodbyes Say they're too hard on the eyes The chapters are too short in life Wasted the chance of a lifetime Pretend that we're happy when you smile Covers the cracks up on the inside This is our last chance to survive Give me one more try Solo You know we could end on a high Given the chance we could fly The chapters are too short in life We were gone in the blink of an eye If you leave now we'll never know To what strengths this love could ever grow You'll call me up in years to come And say I think we got it oh so wrong This is your last chance to call

These Days 03:42
Well I've been out walking I don't do that much talking these days, these days These daysI seem to think a lot about the things that I forgot to do, for you And all the times I had the chance to And I had a lover It's so hard to risk another these days, these days Well if I seem to be afraid to live the life that I have made in song Then it's just cos I've been losing, for so long Well I'll keep on moving, moving along Things are bound to be imp[roving these days One of these days These days I sit on corner stones And count the time in quarter tones to ten, my friend Don't confront me with my failures I had not forgotten them.

Wanderer 05:46
Meet me at the rail track Where the people ride a carriage thinking it will take them to their dreams A journey of delusion To that final destination, a place that you and I will never reach Been flying around in circles, looking for a reason to come down, Touched down in the middle of nowhere It's going to be a long walk home Help me fight my demons Cos I'm struggling 1 on 1 and each day I find it hard to beat them down Give me a direction Show me the path to take guide me by my hand show me the way Been flying around in circles, looking for a reason to come down, Touched down in the middle of nowhere It's going to be a long walk home Looking down or up is no good What you're looking for is not understood Time has come decisions made Now be a man and don't be afraid Give me all my strength lord As I'm running into battle, the time has come for me to show my worth I'll do what I know best now, then ask for forgiveness, maybe someday I can find my peace.......but until then.. I'm still flying around in circles in need of a reason to come down If I ever choose to touch down It's going to be a long walk home A long walk home (repeat)

Mayday 04:42
It's 6am and I'm freezing Left the window up again You always used to keep the heat in But you're not in my bed The sun comes up as I'm leaving Still cold from all the things we said I wish those words we were screaming Had remained unsaid This is a Mayday I'm drowning in the waves This is a Mayday Before you slip away The evening comes and I'm sinking Disappearing once again I see the rescue boats nearing but they're all in my head This is a Mayday I'm drowning in the waves This is a Mayday Before you slip away When you can't make it alone It's ok, you can say so And when the hull breaks There'll still be time to slip away How can the world have no colour When nothing in it's black and white Please pull me out of the water And bring me back to life This is a Mayday I'm drowning in the waves this is a Mayday Before you slip away This is a Mayday x 5...

Out are the wolves, drooling On the scent of your black heart I can hear them howling Searching you out in the dark In over the mountains Through a fallen sky Below no sympathy Searchlights shining high When the witching hour is over And you're sure they're gonna come Tears in the dust A red river runs The rope is swung, swingin' For justice to succeed Scared of the noose, the guilty Dance for all to see One minute call Before the hunter cries Then out from the shadows crawl Wolves with glowing green eyes When the witching hour is over And you're sure they're gonna come Tears in the dust A red river runs Beware the fury of a patient man Learn quick from your mistakes Men will soon grow weary Dancing on the heads of snakes When the witching hour is over And you're sure they're gonna come Tears in the dust The red river runs Tears in the dust A red river runs
