Runaway 03:51
Runaway. When they say that it’s better the devil you know, time to runaway, runaway. See the people who trade all the good times for gold, got to runaway, runaway now. You will find in ways that it pays to be free, Cause it ain’t over till the fat lady bleeds. Cause I’ve been wandering long and hard oh, To find of a cure for this social disease. Oh what you doin to me. You get the truth that fits in well with the lies, time to runaway, runaway. They give you change that’s the same routine in disguise, got to runaway, runaway now. You will find in ways that it pays to be free, Cause you can do anything that you truly believe. Cause I’ve been wandering long and hard oh, To find of a cure for this social disease. Oh what you doin to me now. So what you doin to me now. When they say that it’s better the devil you know. When they say that it’s better the devil you know. When they say that it’s better the devil you know. When they say that it’s better the devil you know. What do you see oh honey dont you know, oh yes now.

Revolutions in the post. Screaming on your own, as they gnaw you to the bone, this can’t be the way. Death to pay the price, just to pay the devil twice, It’s always the same. An invention of their own, of torture and control, they like to call it wage. When you show me your face, like everything is ok, I know the suns as low in the sky for both you and I. Why can’t we just say, but pride gets in the way, it takes the spirit that we could have used to fight. The working mans a slave, show him the world again, so he thinks he does ok. We know they have a cure, for death disease and war, but it just doesn’t pay. Keep em on their knees, so we can do what we please, its how we play the game. When you show me your face, like everything is ok, I know the suns as low in the sky for both you and i. Why can’t we just say, but pride gets in the way, it takes the spirit that we could have used to fight. And I wonder, is it could be as simple as I say, or if my words are merely dreams on a page. Do you think things, will ever really change, or design for life just mould another age. The world can’t take things the way they are right now but nor can people soon the boots will hit the ground. When you show me your face, like everything is ok, I know the suns as low in the sky for both you and i. Why can’t we just say, but pride gets in the way, it takes the spirit that we could have used to fight.

No changes up ahead so the chances are the same she knows she knows, nothing good ever happens to me The wind never seems to come around my way she blows she blows, there is no horizon I can see. I can’t seem to get my head above the waves boy No sun cuts through the grey I’ve got no money, no time, the cold I guess I’ll have to brave There must be a better way And I can see for days, she said, come walk with me. In lots of different ways, she said, I can set you free. Well I’m further away from the things I have to make from day to day, And I know I’m down on my knees Well I can’t seem to get out of my head what I need to say, I know honey I can’t please you. And I can see for days, she said, come walk with me. In lots of different ways, she said, I can set you free. So she said just come along with me boys Soul Disease So she said just come along with me boys Keep your head down and keep your wage. Come walk with me Come walk with me Come walk with me Come walk with me Come walk with me Come walk with me

So they met just to talk it all through, after all it had been a while. Wondered a time on what the other might do, would they cry or would they smile. So they walked around, memory lane till it started to bring them down. But they just couldn’t leave it alone, all the cracks began to show, through the veneer like she said it would. What was this day, but a last chance to moan, what did we hope we would say. What did we know by the last train home, that we didn’t know on the way. I guess now they all know where they stand, in two separate worlds they have made their own. The past not allowed they talk of their plans, true feelings must never be shown. Like strangers now, drinking right through the truth oh it’s easy somehow. Still it’s a shame, because back in the day they were so beautiful you’d never know, that’s waiting now, always slipping away…………… What was this day, but a last chance to moan, what did we hope we would say. What did we know by the last train home, that we didn’t know on the way. What was this day, but a last chance to moan, what did we hope we would say. What did we know by the last train home, that we didn’t know on the way.

Sunny LA 03:07
I can dream everything I want to dream and it could have been real in a different time. I guess we are lost in what it is we think we need, but I don’t care what is yours or mine cuz It’s nice to meet you honey, I won’t stay long today. It’s nice to meet you honey, but I’m going back to sunny LA I’m fine living in the world I see, I don’t need you to tell me where I’m wrong I can be anything I want to be, I’m happy singing along to my own song cuz It’s nice to meet you honey, I won’t stay long today. It’s nice to meet you honey, cuz I’m going back to sunny LA I’m not sold everything I need to know and I’ll believe what I can. I know I said I’d love you forever baby, I tell you baby I’m a rambling man cuz… It’s nice to meet you honey, I won’t stay long today. So let me go, so let me go, you left me waiting, left me waiting round here. So let me go, so let me go, you left me waiting, left me waiting round here. …Its nice to meet you honey but I’m going back to sunny LA.

Like the words of this song, maybe its fate oh yeh. Said when she goes can she stay another day. say what you say yeh I cant see far away from here I know that there is nothing left to fear I have meant every word I’ve said Its hard to keep hold of inside your head If it is mine then ill make it mine Not livin in dark when the sun can shine If it is mine then ill make it mine Not livin in dark when the sun can shine Said when she goes could she stay another day. say what you say yeh

Falling Down 05:16
Falling Down I tow the line, I live within the walls that keep me safe. And I’m down but I’m fine, edge is far away barely awake. So I carry on, walking small, not alive, take me back home. Feel hate in my veins, with the anger within I’m not alone. And I scream cuz I know, I’m against the wall. It’s burning my soul, as I go to war. I’m falling down. After all its just the same old jam, Oho In the end its just the same old jam, Oho After all its just the same old I hear what you say, all the problems out there just let them flow. And making my way, with the anger within I’m not alone. And I scream cuz I know, I’m against the wall. It’s burning my soul, as I go to war. I’m falling down. After all its just the same old jam, Oho In the end its just the same old jam, Oho After all its just the same old If you think I’m at the end of where I’m going If you think I’m at the end of where I’m going If you think I’m at the end of where I’m going And if you think its just the same old what you say. After all its just the same old jam, Oho In the end its just the same old jam, Oho After all its just the same old jam.

Wanderlust 03:53
Wanderlust. I said I lost my way. Yes I did now honey. So wont you come to me sweetheart and take me, take me far far away Because ive been twisting, ive been walking around, ive been lost in what I say. I live in my dreams now honey, they’re far more intresting place And this whole town feels like a room and my soul just needs some space. She said I lost my way She said I, said I lost my way I just need to get out of here, I don’t know the reason why. But I’ve been looking at the stars at night oh honey, I can see them from my garden sky. I need to see something and change the way I see the world Im just so sick of the day today, it all becomes a blur. She said I lost my way She said I, said I lost my way And my head lights up with the stars at night And I just need to see a different sight. And my head lights up with the stars at night And I just need to see a different sight. She said I lost my way She said I, said I lost my way She said I lost my way She said I, said I lost my way

Leaving them behind. Its not just a smile as you walk away,The truth is what they say its what you see And as you look at the flashing lights next to what you left is it what you said it would be. Its not for me to criticise at all, or to save you before you drown, I’m middle ground. But someone will hold you to what you say, and the truth will hunt you down and find its judgement day. You’ll live in doubt in the seeds you sew, and I’ll be a million miles from here lost in what you know. You find a way to justify yourself, it’s just a part of you it’s what you do. People out there don’t seem to care at all, when all you’ve got to say are the words of a fool. and I hope that someday you will find your peace, or whatever makes you happy at least. But someone will hold you to what you say, and the truth will hunt you down and find its judgement day. You’ll live in doubt in the seeds you sew, and I’ll be a million miles from here lost in what you know. But someone will hold you to what you say, and the truth will hunt you down and find its judgement day. You’ll live in doubt in the seeds you sew, and I’ll be a million miles from here lost in what you know.

Way From Back When. I can see change, racing around my head, oh no. Way from back when, the faces looked all the same. You know they do Cause its not beginning or middle or end. Its there in the future we make for ourselves. Time to look around All of of us are, the product of what we will say, oh no. Made up of, the people who play the game. Cause its not beginning or middle or end. Its there in the future we make for ourselves. Time to look around Im not checking out I can see change, racing around my head, oh no. Way from back when, the faces looked all the same. Cause its not beginning or middle or end. Its time to look around Its there in the future we make for ourselves. Time to look around now. I’m not checking out I’m not checking out I’m not checking out I’m not checking out
