IN TOO DEEP

The little things we done

The little things we hide

The empty road we walk

And leave ourselves behind

We saw this come before

Did nothing at all

And I know we’re in too deep

Bring it back take a hold of me

And I know you’ll never see

Bring it back take a hold of me

The time is now – it’s right

The time is all we had

For empty promises

For leaving when we can

ON MY WAY

Got a chance of a life worth living

Another way I know that I’d be given

If I pulled myself up away from the line

It wasn’t clear at first - it never is

It was just something that I couldn’t see

I’d look away for the last time

And no-one else would set me free

Only I man I know to be is me

I’m on my way

If you wanna know

I’m on my way

I’m going home

A life worth living is how I can make it

It won’t be given so I have to take it

I’m just a step away from living

IF THIS IS THE END

A hardened smile of broken dreams

Worse than your heart with no more room left to bleed

No escape, no way out, no time to breathe

I’ve looked deep into you fallen down

Reflected back was a horror of ways

We could let ourselves down and I know it won’t change

And I walked down this road before

I knew how it was then

Now I know it again

There was a calm before the storm

No way we can mend

If this is the end

I’ve been a secret, a lie before

Pretended I can be other than this now we know that I can’t

I can make a heart ache – it can burst with one look

One mistake, no regrets should ever make the man

TURN ME LOOSE

Could you have found another man

That made you feel this way?

Another person that could break you

With the words they say

I’m not a man that can just love or

Give myself complete

I’m just pretending – always have –

I could be all you need

I’ve never been that for another

I’ve always let them down

The way I am will stay the same

Cos I don’t care enough to change

Turn me loose

Just let me go

I’m not the one that you needed to know

That’s not the man I think you know it

That’ll I’ll ever be

Looked at myself and hated what it was

Looked back at me

So I should stop and just accept it now

It’s what I am

Just all I can be

YOU MAKE IT EASY

Remember that day

You came and you told me you

Never should have been before

But then it’s too late to argue

It’s only a version of what we know

It doesn’t matter how easy you make it

I know I should lay you down

It doesn’t matter - I know it won’t end

I know I should lay you down

Was only then when I recognised

I should always take hold of you

All I ever could make it

Was something to make me want more than you

RUNAWAY

Waited for this day so long

Now we don’t even know

What could ever make it work?

Was I sure? How could I know?

Something’s shaken me and I wonder why

Find a way for it to change

Runaway or stay the same

Find a way for it to change

Runaway or stay the same

How’d I ever get this far

Behind with no regrets?

I couldn’t see a better way

And I don’t care if I never do

MY WOMAN COMES ON STRONG

There’s only one thing I didn’t tell

Didn’t hold it close so I raised my dose

I get around, get around my love

And it shows me it’s a long way down

Oh no

She come a walk, and a strut around

And she waves her style to lay me down

There’s only one reason that I hold you

And tell myself did you know.

Did you know?

My highs to low

Better to see you should not care

So you don’t get in the way

Better to see you won’t be there

How long should we play this game?

My woman comes on strong

She knows my day is weak and a night is long

Give it all

My woman won’t be told

She won’t be told so easily

So I give in

NOWHERE LEFT TO HIDE

I broke the line - Untold divine

Feel a rush, I am free

What’s this wave over me

I forget now what I’m told

As my story unfolds

How could this be?

How could I let it go, I see no end

So I’ll take in all you have to give

Make it harder with you by my side

If we fall, there’s nowhere left to hide

Only us now – here we are

We drowned in life – we’ve come too far

Here I stand, incomplete

Watch this wave crash over me

How could this be?

ONE MORE SIP

Find myself face down in the dirt

Always my home alone broken and hurt

Black and blue and stinking like death

Mouth always dry and a pain in my head

I’ve been here so many times

But only know one thing to do

Give myself a better time and drink my way through

And I might as well take one more sip

When I finish I’ll start over again

I said I might just drink myself to death

Open my eyes, take another shot of life

Sleep when I’m dead, just gotta try to stand

I’m not complaining it’s how I want to stay

Lord you can join me or get out of my way

Give the cold shoulder to hope and joy, it’s really not my bag

I can’t see – don’t know where I am

Don’t care how long it lasts

IT NEVER GETS OLD

I’ve waited so long

For the mighty to fall

I’ve waited so long

To see your face as you fall

I’ve waited so long

To look down on you

I’ve waited so long

I don’t know how to

But you owe nothing to me and I’m a fool

My eyes are open and now I see

Bring me back

To the line, it’s what we do

Bring me back

To the line, it’s what we do

I tried so hard

To believe I could be

More than you need

I tried so hard to see

WALKING THE LINE

Could never tell what real life was

Had no meaning no home

Light in the dark is what you gave

Brought me back from the brink – I was saved

And I realise I never tried

Til I had that look in your eyes

I was walking the line

So long, so hard

I was walking the line

Til you came along

I found life the first time I held you

I’d been away for too long

Bring me back, bring me back to a home

You’ll always have in my arms

Seeing you grow is all I ever need

You’re the light that shines its way through me

THE LITTLE THINGS

The little things we done

The little things we hide

The empty road we walk

And leave ourselves behind

We saw this come before

Did nothing at all

And I know we’re in too deep

Bring it back take a hold of me

And I know you’ll never see

Bring it back take a hold of me

The time is now – it’s right

The time is all we had

For empty promises

For leaving when we can
