No Divider 05:10
No Divider - Lyrics You sent me back to where I belong I’ve run these tracks for far too long I know that you’ll change your mind But I’ll be gone There came a time, when I should’ve said “This isn’t working”, but I didn’t dare I always wanted you to care But I should’ve known I should’ve known You put me back in my rightful place You told me there’s no divider between love and hate You said that I should stop dreaming That we could escape some day ‘Cause we couldn’t get away. I never thought, that we’d end up like this Part of this broken stereotype I thought we could resist But there was something I has missed And I should’ve known I should’ve known. You put me back in my rightful place You told me there’s no divider between love and hate You said that I should stop dreaming That we could escape some day ‘Cause we couldn’t get away. I think it's time that I was gone It's true that I can't face up to what we've become I know I need to get away You've said the things that I thought you would never say You sent me back where I belong You told me everything I ever said was wrong I wish that I could get away You've said the things that I thought you would never say You put me back in my rightful place You told me there’s no divider between love and hate You said that I should stop dreaming That we could escape… And we couldn’t get away. You sent me back, to where I belong.

Turnaround 04:59
Turnaround – Lyrics Burning in this silence All your colours fade to red You worry about your violence And what you said. Burning in this silence The train goes running off the track If you speak your words like a hurricane Then you will never get them back You said “There’s one way up and one way down But somewhere there’s a way around And I wonder if you’ll be the one To save me from the things I’ve done And I’m hoping that you’ll stick it out Where the other’s patience all ran out ‘Cause I need I need a turnaround.” You told me it all went wrong Somewhere down a one way street You said “I left my heart in a trash can And now it won’t come back to me” You worry that you’re out of control That you’re out of control You say, you say, you say ”I lost my heart, I threw it away I just threw it away” You worry that you’re out of control That you’re out of control You say “It’s just bad luck I turned out this way That I turned out this way. And there’s one way up and one way down But somewhere there’s a way around And I wonder if you’ll be the one To save me from the things I’ve done And I’m hoping that you’ll stick it out Where the other’s patience all ran out ‘Cause I need I need a turnaround. You worry that you’re out of control, that you’re out of control You said “There’s one way up and one way down But somewhere there’s a way around And I wonder if you’ll be the one To save me from the things I’ve done And I’m hoping that you’ll stick it out Where the other’s patience all ran out ‘Cause I need I need a turnaround.” I told you it’s all in your mind You pay the price for what you find I told you it’s all in your head So just take back the things you said Stop burning in your silence That you could break with just a word And when other’s say that it’s not worth it Just remember what you’ve learnt ‘Cause there’s one way up but more ways down And somewhere there’s a way around And now I’ll be glad that I’m the one To save you from the things you’ve done And I’m hoping that you’ll stick it out When the others’ confidence runs out ‘Cause you know They need a turnaround.

Elevator Jazz – Lyrics Was walking down a well known street, somewhere I’d been before I looked up and recognized the guy who lived next door And, being me, I had to ask why he was staring at the floor He said “Girl, you don’t know how it is when your life is just a bore.” He said “there’s nothing left, no more success and everything I had Has got so low from bad ringtones to elevator jazz. Elevator Jazz… ‘Cause ever since I quit my job well things have gone downhill Even when I think I just feel positively ill And even after all these years I know I’m still to blame But where have all the good things gone, why is everything so lame?” I said “Stop! You’re driving me insane!” He said “there’s nothing left, no more success and everything I had Has got so low from bad ringtones to elevator jazz.” I said “Oh just get lost you’ve got no life so why you telling me? Go join the chavs now you’ve worked out that there’s nothing else to be! And maybe on those rainy days when there’s nothing else to do Go sit inside the elevator, let the Jazz take over you” He said “oh don’t be stupid, do you really think I am that sad? But then again… that quiet jazz… I guess it’s not so bad.” I said “Oh for heavens sake, get a life.” Elevator Jazz

Hourglass 05:05
Hourglass – Lyrics Make tracks in the snow Wondering where you’ll go Standing in the rain You wonder why you’re laughing through the pain You walk along the sandy paths of stone Your heart’s made of gold If that’s the case, then why are you so cold? Lost again, running through the rain Colours disappearing just like everything else You try to run but it’s too late you’ve sealed your frozen twisted fate You’ve broken dreams, too many lies The fire’s burning in your eyes and you know Your time has come Time to run. You crash through the door There’s writing on the wall, You know you’ve got just seconds left to fall You’re out of time, you see it all You read the writing on the wall It says what you don’t want to hear Your time is up, the end is near You try to run but it’s too late you’ve sealed your frozen twisted fate You’ve broken dreams, too many lies The fire’s burning in your eyes and you know Your time has come There’s no time to run You’re like an empty hourglass The sand’s all gone, it didn’t last The clock strikes midnight, soon you’ll see Just how it feels to live like me… Empty. Have mercy on your soul You’re not the first to fall And now we’ll both live in the past Because the present didn’t last.

What You Did Wrong – Lyrics I turn away After all this time I’m getting bored I hear you say My selfish attitude can’t be ignored You walk away Leaving me alone, again You enjoy This stupid little game And you’re trying to show me That I have to do things your way Saying ‘talk to the hand’ That’s not how it’s gonna be ‘Cause I always get the last laugh When you don’t understand What you did wrong ‘This is child’s play’ You hear me complain You still play with your racing cars You still don’t put your dirty clothes away How, am, I, meant to live like this? When all you do is make a mess And when I ask don’t bother to confess And you’re trying to show me That I have to do things your way Saying ‘talk to the hand’ That’s not how it’s gonna be ‘Cause I always get the last laugh When you don’t understand What you did wrong I’m fed up of you And all the times you try to play pretend Real people’s lives can’t mimic those of barbie dolls and action men Just get out I can’t take this anymore You’ve shown me your true colours and as payback I’ll be showing you the door Now you’re trying to tell me I don’t have to do things your way So you hold out your hand Yet you know that it’s too late And as I shut the door I know you’ll never understand What you did wrong You’ll never understand You’ll never understand.

Simplicity Refined – Lyrics I don’t believe you that you’re ‘under control’ ‘Cause I know that we’ve been round this before Tripping up in ways I don’t understand and I’m not helping you up anymore. You said ‘what’s the difference?’ and ‘it’s just how we roll’ Started telling me how I didn’t know. Maybe you’re right in ways I don’t understand But I won’t be the one to hold out my hand I’d follow in your footsteps if they’d take me anywhere But there’s no point in looking for an escape that isn’t there It’s your imagination that is helping you survive Living out your lies is all that’s keeping you alive. You start to say how I’m simplicity refined And if I think you’re wrong then I must be blind. You’re as cold as ice and twenty times as sharp as broken glass Like broken glass. You said ‘what’s the difference?’ and ‘It’s just how I am’ Maybe it’s better off you don’t understand. I don’t believe you that you’re back in control ‘Cause I know that we’ve been round this before I’d follow in your footsteps if they’d take me anywhere But there’s no point in looking for an escape that isn’t there It’s your imagination that is helping you survive Living out your lies is all that’s keeping you alive. I’d follow in your footsteps if they’d take me anywhere But there’s no point in looking for an escape that isn’t there It’s your imagination that is helping you survive Living out your lies is all that’s keeping you alive.

Video Game 04:15
Video Game – Lyrics You say I’m going round again when you know that I don’t care ‘Cause if you look around you there are circles everywhere The path you take is a choice you make but there’s always those who say “You take your lifelines one by one and you throw them all away” And I, I keep on rolling down this road Over and over again There’s no other places for me to go So I follow your footsteps ‘til the end Over and Over. You say I’ve made mistakes but then you pick on anything You walk into my life and you start changing everything The path I take is a choice I’ll make but there’s you who’ll always say “You take your lifelines one by one, and you do it wrong again!” But I, I keep on rolling down this road Over and over again There’s no other places for me to go So I follow your footsteps ‘til the end Over and Over. You tell me life’s a video game but I don’t wanna play I’ve got no lives left and besides, it was boring anyway I’ve said I’ll quit and I’ll give up, I’ve thrown it all away I’ll take my lifelines, one by one, and I’ll just play again I, I keep on rolling down this road Over and Over again There’s no other places for me to go So I follow your footsteps ‘til the end …Over and over.

Chainlink Fence – Lyrics Once again when he walked in She was sitting staring at the wall. Apart from the floor she was sitting on In that room there was nothing there at all. She said “I’ve jumped the tracks, I can’t get back So can you help me turn my life around? Help me destroy this chainlink fence Tear it apart and bring it to the ground.” He said “just wait a while and in good time We’ll take this fence and tear it to the floor, And after that you’ll be just fine And someday you won’t need me anymore Anymore Anymore.” When he knocked on the front door She was stressed about nothing at all. The small wooden chair she was sitting on Was on the far side, facing the wall. He said “now take deep breaths and count to ten Just watch all your troubles slip away…” She said “it doesn’t work! I’m seeing red It’s all the same as it was yesterday.” He said “just wait a while and in good time We’ll take this fence and tear it to the floor, And after that you’ll be just fine And someday you won’t need me anymore Anymore Anymore.” She said “oh I give up, it’s been 3 months I’m still the same as I was back then! In anything, I’m getting worse This baby talk of fences is insane!” He said “it’s not my fault, I’ve tried my best You don’t listen to anything I say. How can I help when all you do Is throw things and shout about yesterday?!” She said “I’ve waited ages, you can’t help And I won’t put up with you anymore… You still call yourself a doctor When your patients leave you crying on the floor! So… you’re fired.”

Stuck in Reverse – Lyrics Lost property I beg to differ from society It’s all the same, everyday’s eventuality Stuck in reverse. This is the last of you Windows shattering inside of you You know it’s over darkness creeping over you Stuck in reverse. Chaos and destruction Drives the cold blood through your veins You know it’s not gonna be today But you’re hoping to escape You were letting no one in And now you’ll pay the price: Throwing your whole life away and Hoping it’s alright Not how it’s meant to be You beg to fit in with society There’s no escape when you’re immune to individuality Stuck in reverse. Chaos and destruction Drives the cold blood through your veins You know it’s not gonna be today But you’re hoping to escape You were letting no one in And now you’ll pay the price: Throwing your whole life away and Hoping it’s alright Chaos and destruction Drives the cold blood through your veins You know it’s not gonna be today But you’re hoping to escape You were letting no one in And now you’ll pay the price: Throwing your whole life away and Hoping it’s alright.
