Dreaming

We're all building up but we're all feeling down
We climb our dizzy heights while our hearts sink to the ground
Transaction decline, pretend your bank's at fault
Months have passed you by and you still can't feel your soul
There must be more to life than dreaming there's more to life than this
Sharing the lonely nights with feelings of awkward emptiness
And as the morning light comes streaming towards me with a kiss
It tells me not to cry that freedom is closer than you think
Girlfriend's left again but another one is found
First month's got you high but then cloud 9 brings you down
Work is going well, you become the best about
Recession hits you hard, one punch and then you're out

Nothing Is For Certain

This world's dazed
The clouds have turned a musty kind of grey
Streetlamps can't tell if it's night or day
'Cause nothing is for certain except You
No nothing is for certain except You
In between
Frustration marking every part in me
It gets me down, I'll get there finally
'Cause nothing is for certain except You
No nothing is for certain except You
Love me the way You love me
I need something to stand still
I'm collapsing like a building now
So please don't stop
Everything around me seems to drop
You are always there to hold me up
'Cause nothing is for certain except You
No nothing is for certain except You
Led astray into thinking life would always be the same
All of those securities will fade
'Cause nothing is for certain except You
No nothing is for certain except You

Something Dwells

Shiver, the coldness of my heart has delivered
"How can you look at yourself?" is the question I ask the mirror
Lonely, do not disown me when you find out who I am
Propped against persona, identify the owner that hides behind the lies, hides behind the lies
Set to hit the stage at 10 and I will feel alive again but only for a while,
only for a while
Prison, the synapse have collapsed inside my system
Is numbness the absence of pain or becoming the pain of absence?
Lonely do not disown me when you find out who I am
Give me my placebo pill and I'll pretend that I'm not ill
The humour's gone benign, humour's gone benign
Doctor's don't remember me, the course of dreamotherapy is poisoning the mind, poisoning the mind
Apathy is trapping me, why do they all look to me?
You are the chosen, you are the chosen
Tangled in the heart of me, it's always been a part of me
I'm not sure you've got the right guy
Can you feel it as you walk along the shore?
Can you feel it as you search for something more?
Fly, fly into the sky
Leave the life you had behind
Fly into the sky
The Kyte's got no string and he's wandering dangerously high
Lost the lust to justify the phony way I live my life
I'm tired of all the lies, tired of all the lies
Set to hit the stage at 10 and I will feel alive again but only for a while, only for a while 'cause
Something dwells inside me
