THE CITY LIGHTS
(lyrics – Jakszyk)
It's 4:00 in the morning
And the world has gone to bed
As I walk through the debris
With the rain above my head
Traffic lights are ghostly
Pausing cars that don't rush by
No one’s in a hurry
And nor the hell am I
No matter what the excuse is
I know it won’t go away
No matter how long I'll feel this
I think I'd know what you'd say
The neons keep on flashing
Selling dreams but no ones here
Just empty offices and buildings
Stood silently for years
Beyond the rooftops of the houses
Amongst the spires and the bells
Just one lone bird keeps flying
When daylight breaks the spell
No matter what the excuse is
I know it won’t go away
No matter how long I'll feel this
I think I'd know what you'd say
I know what you'd say

BEFORE I MET YOU
(lyrics – Jakszyk)
I watch him touch you
Through my fingers
Back before I met you
I bought these tickets
To sit in darkness
To witness days before I met you
Before I met you
I don't want you
If you betray me like before
Before I met you, now it's harder to ignore
It's something about the things you said
And those images inside my head
Even though the thing was dead
I combined the thrill with dread
I can see you both in bed
Even though the thing was dead
Amidst the scrapbooks and the neatly ordered files
Long lost photographs of false and public smiles
Old reviews and memorabilia chart her rise
(It came from nowhere)
Like some secret dossier waiting for a trial
(It came from nowhere)
This was where you came before
This is who you used to be
Long before I had met you
When you were young and fancy free
With a boy you barely knew
Long before I had met you
What the hell was his name?
Just tell me his name
What the hell was his name?
She said "I don't remember I don't understand"
"Why the hell is this important? I don't understand"
"I could be your virgin, that's some sleight of hand"
"Desdemona's new Othello, Is that what you'd planned?"

NOT WAVING, BUT DROWNING
(lyrics – Jakszyk)
I could have been your history
I could have been the clues
That untangled all the mysteries
And turned them into news
In the end
I could have been anyone
(Frankly) anyone would do
Looks like you wanted an alibi
Someone to abuse
When there's nothing left.
Then there's nothing left
Nothing left at all
When there's nothing left.
Then there's nothing left
Nothing left at all
Caught between the rise and fall
Here beneath water
From the debris I will crawl
Into the life boat
I could have been the cavalry
The answer to you prayers
Upon the wings of destiny
When no one else would dare
Instead I moved the scenery
When I should have played it cool
Pretend that it was new to me
Instead I played the fool
Caught between the rise and fall
Here beneath water
From the debris I will crawl
Into the life boat
He's not waving
He's a drowning man
Best help out if you can
I'm not waving
I'm a drowning man
Best help me out if you can.
I'm not waving
I'm a drowning man
Best help me out if you can.

IT WOULD ALL MAKE SENSE
(lyrics – Jakszyk)
There's a faded piece of paper
That fell from the pocket of your jeans
What looks like a mobile number
Though I'm sure it's not what it seems
There's fragment of a message
Left on the answer phone
There's still heat coming from your engine
When you said, you were at home
It makes no sense
It all makes sense
It makes no sense
It makes no
Countless explanations
All reasonable and sane, you know
Well, only someone crazy
Would start to lay the blame
Someone whispered gently
"Are you sure that's where she's been?"
"Are you sure she's being truthful?"
I don't know what you mean?
I could not believe him
None of this is true
You just don't decide to flee this place
And leave without a clue
Someone here is lying
I hope to God it isn't you
‘Coz it would all make sense
I don't understand this
Or anything you said
If all the rumours were the truth
Then the rest was in my head
Please don't explain the evidence
From every tiny shred
‘Coz it would all make sense
I could not believe him
None of this is true
You just don't decide to flee this place
And leave without a clue
Someone here is lying
I hope to God it isn't you
'Coz it would all make sense
I don't understand this
Or anything you've said
If all the rumours were the truth
Then the rest was in my head
Please don't explain the evidence
From every tiny shred
'Coz it would all make sense
(It would all make sense)

FLAME
(lyrics – Bowness)
I will soothe your fears
I will drink your tears
I will hold you near
Because I understand
Flame
I will cover you
Flame
I will smother you
Flame
I will cover you
Flame
I will hear your call
I will break your fall
I will build your walls
Because our love is strong
Flame
I will cover you
Flame
I will smother you

HIDDEN TIES
(lyrics – Bowness)
Undo the harm,
Undo the love,
Undo the looks
That took you by surprise.
Take a walk around the city,
Shoot your thoughts inside the city,
You always took them to the city....
Hidden times,
Hidden lives.
Un-see the light,
Unleash the dark,
Un-speak the words
That gave vision to your eyes.
Take a walk around the city,
Your falling feet upon the city,
The different faces of the city....
Hidden times,
Hidden lives.
Still waiting for the one that says you're beautiful,
Still waiting for the place that you call home.
Undo the hurt,
Undo the love,
Undo the looks
That took you by surprise.
Hidden times,
Hidden lives.
Still waiting for the one that says you're beautiful,
Still waiting for the place that you call home.
Take a walk into the city,
The different faces of the city.
Hidden times,
Hidden lives…

IN THE BLUE MORNING
(lyrics – Jakszyk)
Only speak when you’re spoken to
Let the silence do the rest
Though your heart may be broke in two
In the end it's for the best
Some day you'll say it's never too late
One day I'll show you all I kept hidden
From the world
One long list of failings
I can't repair
One last chance to change this
Without a prayer
One long flight to nowhere
With no flight home
One long night to get through
On my own
In the morning
In the morning rain
Come the morning
It starts to fall again
In the morning
When the rain came down
I could hear the storm rage
Above my head.
But I just lay there till sun went down
But the world had changed
The rain kept falling
As the day's went by
Yet outside the window it was warm and dry
The clouds keep forming
All around my head
Till the room capsized
In the morning
In the morning rain
Come the morning
It starts to fall again
In the morning
In the morning rain
Come the morning
It starts to fall again
In the morning
Come feel the morning rain
In the morning
It starts to fall again

ZOMBIE LOVE
(lyrics – Jakszyk)
All I remember is what she wore
But hardly anything she said
Try as I might to recall
Looks like those synapses are dead
Too many drinks or a fantasy
And a heady cocktail of her eyes
I'm not quite sure when she disappeared
I just woke up alone outside
My head's a blur of moments
Just where did they go?
God knows I can't remember
Where? Why? Who knows?
I kept on calling
But no one was home
So I packed my bags
And decided to go
All I remember from the night before
Seems to start and end with you
One kiss and a spinning room
And this broken heart the only clue
Through a crack where the light crept in
And lit the debris on the floor
Where the memories or the dreams begin
I'm just not certain any more
My head's a blur of moments
Just where did you go
God knows I don't remember
where? why? Who knows?
I kept on calling
but no one was home
So I packed my bags
And decided to go
See - I came from nowhere
And that's where I'll go
Some small town in England
That no one will know
I knew that someone
Would find you again
But I would be a hundred miles away by then
Don't pin it all on me
Don't pin it all on me
Don't pin it all on me

DAMAGED GOODS
(lyrics – Jakszyk)
Another empty station
And your mobile is down again
Faced with all this temptation
This is where you came and went
If you came running back no one would blame you
If you stayed where you are none would care
Were all but one mistake away from falling
We're all damaged goods just the same as you
Blinded by the headlights
In this endless search for you
When nights dissolve into mornings
And the sunlight fades all the clues
If you came running back no one would blame you
If you stayed where you are none would care
Were all but one mistake away from falling
We're all damaged goods just the same as you
No words
No explanation just
Empty hallways
Empty lives
No signs
No limitations
Just another day
To survive
If you came running back no one would blame you
If you stayed where you are none would care
Were all but one mistake away from falling
We're all damaged goods just the same as you
Same as you

THOSE WORDS (WORDS ARE ALL WE HAVE)
(lyrics – Jakszyk)
Nobody mentioned this, was part of the deal
And nobody told me this, would be how I'd feel
This nightmare just woke me up
So go back to sleep
Go back to dreaming
A dream that won't exist
(Nobody mentioned this)
Those words may not make sense
But they're all he's got in the present tense
If he speaks at all
If he speaks at all
Those words are scant recompense
For the things he feels and where his future went
If he talks at all
He barely talks at all
How will I cope with this?
And how will I survive?
When every day I'll see you,
In our children's eye's
Those words may not make sense
But they're all he's got in the present tense
If he speaks at all
If he speaks at all
Those words are scant recompense
For the things he feels and where his future went
If he talks at all
He barely talks at all
Those words are all we have
Words are all we have
