Standing On My Own Again

Standing on the shore watching our ship go down
Sinking in the sand and I can't turn around
Future's looking black and it's a sight to see
Just a thousand grey waves crashing over me
Just a thousand grey waves breaking over me

Now it's happening to me
Why can't I ever see?
Am I gonna let you leave without a sound?
Watching 'til you're out of sight
Dreaming I did something right
Standing on my own again

Water in my lungs and it's a pain to breathe
Salt is in my eyes and it's a pain to see
I can't stand the pressure though you think I can
Just don't wanna see it going down the pan
Just don't wanna see it going down the pan

Now it's happening to me
Why can't I ever see?
Am I gonna let you leave without a sound?
Pushing you to your wit's end
Guess I'm gonna lose a friend
Standing on my own again

Now it's happening to me
Why can't I ever see?
Am I gonna let you leave without a sound?
Watching 'til you're out of sight
Dreaming I did something right
Standing on my own again


Can't Look At Your Skin

You've got a bug in your body
And an itch in your head
Shooting looks down every street
Hoping there's someone to meet, do you care?

You better start making changes
Before they put you away
Shooting looks down every street
Feral kid with no beliefs (on the recorded version; live and in the lyrics booklet it is "Hoping there's someone to meet")
Stealing hearts just like a thief
Killing boys with your body

Can't you see in their faces
That you make them so frikkin crazy?
I can't look at your skin
'Cos it's doing me in

Though I've forgot what your name is
You're on the tip of my tongue
And I just refuse to see
You as an atrocity

You better start making changes
Before they put you away
Are you dressing like before?
Is there another boy to score?
Will you take him on the floor?
Will you drown in your sorrow?

Can't you see in their faces
That you make them so frikkin crazy?
I can't look at your skin
'Cos it's doing me in

Can't you see in their faces
That you make them so frikkin crazy?
I can't look at your skin
'Cos it's doing me in

I can't look at your skin
'Cos it's doing me in

I can't look at your skin
'Cos it's doing me in

I can't look at your skin
'Cos it's doing me in

I can't look at your skin
'Cos it's doing me in

I can't look at your skin
'Cos it's doing me in

I can't look at your skin
'Cos it's doing me in

I can't look at your skin
'Cos it's doing me in

I can't look at your skin
'Cos it's doing me in

I can't look at your skin
'Cos it's doing me in


Don't Let Your Man Know

Getting paranoid, heart beats fast
Start to sweat when I see you walk past
Legs are killing, and my eyes
Wanna close them when they're open too wide
Pull my hair out, going mad
Have to wait though I want you so bad
Gotta go now, oh my God
Call my number, I'll be waiting

Can I see you in the bedroom tonight?
Can I see you on the beach tonight?
Don't let your man know, don't let your man know
Don't let your man know, don't let your man know

When can I see you and not your ghost?
You're never there when I'm needing you most
It's devastating, it's all too much
My mind's exploding when I think of your touch
You've got the power over me
I'm only seeing what you want me to see
My pulse is racing, I'm falling down
I'm gonna need resuscitating

Can I see you in the bathroom tonight?
You gonna let me make you feel good tonight?
Don't let your man know, don't let your man know
Don't let your man know, don't let your man know

Can I see you in the bedroom tonight?
Can I see you on the beach tonight?
Can I see you in the bathroom tonight?
Don't let your man know, don't let your man know
Don't let your man know, don't let your man know
Don't let your man know, don't let your man know
Don't let your man know, don't let your man know


Just A State Of Mind

Emptiness I've found you
How bleak you are
Moving in the shadows
You're here, and it's clear
That it's just a state of mind
Running through the times
Keeping us alive

First time that I saw you
Teeth squeezed my lips
And I thought I'd die without you
But you're here, and it's clear
That it's just a state of mind
Running through the times
Keeping us alive

Just a state of mind
Keeping us in line
Before we take a dive

Just be happy, you are strong now
It's so lonely to love someone

Happiness I've found you
How sweet you are
Smiling in the shadows
You're here, and it's clear
That it's just a state of mind
Running through the times
Keeping us alive

Just a state of mind
Keeping us in line
Before we take a dive


You & I

You and I gotta think for a while
Look to the sky, gotta decide if we're gonna see tomorrow

You and I gotta look to the sky
Are we gonna die wondering why life ain't nothing but sorrow?

'Cos it's gonna be a while
'Til I get to see you smile
And you gotta let me know
Oh maybe you won't

You and I gotta think for a while
Look to the sky, gotta decide if we're gonna see tomorrow

You and I gotta look to the sky
Are we gonna die wondering why life ain't nothing but sorrow?

'Cos it's gonna be a while
'Til I get to see you smile
And you gotta let me know
Oh baby, don't go

Never met a girl like you before
I don't think I ever will again
Why don't you smile?
Why don't you smile?

Never thought I'd see you walkin' out that door
I don't think I ever will again
Why don't you sing?
Why can't you sing?
Why can't you sing?

La-la-la-la-la-la (x3)

You and I gotta think for a while
Look to the sky, gotta decide if we're gonna see tomorrow

You and I gotta think for a while
Look to the sky, gotta decide if we're gonna see tomorrow

You and I gotta think for a while
Look to the sky, gotta decide if we're gonna see tomorrow

You and I gotta think for a while
Look to the sky, gotta decide if we're gonna see tomorrow

'Cos it's gonna be a while
'Til I get to see you smile
And you gotta let me know
Oh baby

La-la-la-la-la-la (x3)

La-la-la-la-la-la (x3)

Woh-oh, woh-oh


Gimme Some Love

We're a right pair, you and I
It's a messed-up situation
Are you gonna dump this other guy
Before I die of sexual frustration?

I can't stand the crowds on a Saturday night
Why don't you come round and try to make it alright?

Gimme some love (x4)

The way you get into my corduroys
Like you're on some kind of expedition
Your shaking hands are the destroyer of boys
I run into the arms of certain extinction

First you're teasing me, then you're wanting a fight
Just 'cos it pleases me doesn't make it alright

Gimme some love (x4)

(speaking)

We're a right pair, you and I
It's a messed-up situation
Are you gonna dump this other guy?
Before I die of sexual frustration

I can't stand the crowds on a Saturday night
Why don't you come round, try to make it alright?

Gimme some love (x8)


I Don't Wanna Go Out

I... don't wanna go out
I... don't wanna stay in
I'll sit inside my box and vandalise my dirty mind

I... don't wanna go out
I... don't wanna stay in
I'll sit inside my room and vandalise my dirty mind
I won't get any food but then I'll eat myself alive

I... am bumming you out
I... am doing you in
This mess is running in and out of every part of me
The less that I am wanting you, the more I want to see
You got a silver bullet, at my heart you're aiming
You're gonna shoot me down if I just start complaining
You only want me when you got me pleading
When you got me on my knees then you should stop my bleeding

Do it, no don't ever make me do it
There's hostility from everyone around, yeah
Do it, no don't ever make me do it
There's hostility from everyone around, yeah

Do it, no don't ever make me do it
There's hostility from everyone around, yeah

Do it, no don't ever make me do it
There's hostility from everyone around, yeah

Do it, no don't ever make me do it
There's hostility from everyone around, yeah


Don't Believe Anything I Say

I've been lying in the park for ages
I've been staring at the trees
Cold, bright and sunny morning

I've been lying in the park for ages
Getting covered up with leaves
Feeling dirty, sick and tired
Gets me feeling so diseased
Guess I'll get myself up and walk down the street

Oh yeah I really see it now
As clear as mud to me
I just don't believe
Oh yeah I really see it now
I'm just a boy to me
I just don't believe anything I say
Don't believe anything I say

I've been staring at a silver ceiling
Seeing things I don't wanna see
And it kills me every time
How you got away from me
Seems my mind is more a prison now I'm free

Oh yeah I really see it now
As clear as mud to me
I just don't believe
Oh yeah I really see it now
I'm just a boy to me
I just don't believe anything I say
Don't believe anything I say

I'll be thinking 'bout these words forever
Still I'm ending up with me
Why'd I go wasting all your time?
Why did I wanna set you free?
How could I think I'd be happier lonely?

Oh yeah I really see it now
As clear as mud to me
I just don't believe
Oh yeah I really see it now
I'm just a boy to me
I just don't believe anything I say
Don't believe anything I say

I'll be thinking 'bout these words forever (x4)


Tell It Like It Is

You've got the need to wander, I'm getting it from your eyes
I know I'm not the one to tell you exactly where your feelings should lie

When I saw you my life turned so beautiful
I never met no-one like you before

Why can't you tell it like it is, just make it clear
You came into my life and then you disappear
All I have of you is a ringing in my ear
And when I reach out 'cos I wanna hold you near
There's nobody here

And as you're packing your suitcase, I'm catching you dry your eyes
But you're keeping a straight face like this happens all the time

You treated me like I was brand new before
No-one had made me feel like you do before

Why can't you tell it like it is, just make it clear
You came into my life and then you disappear
All I have of you is a ringing in my ear
And when I reach out 'cos I wanna hold you near
There's nobody here

When I saw you my life turned so beautiful
I'd never met no-one like you before
And as I feel your footsteps move the floor
I welcome loneliness back through the door

Why can't you tell it like it is, just make it clear
You came into my life and then you disappear
All I have of you is a ringing in my ear
And when I reach out 'cos I wanna hold you near
There's nobody here


Flights To The Sea (Lovely Rain)

Threw my glasses in the dirt
Tell you man that really hurt
So I'm lyin in the bottom bunk
Then you slammed me in the door
Got me feelin pretty sore
So I'm lyin in the bottom bunk

Now we've gone too far astray
I do believe you've had your way with me
Not much of a holiday
I do believe you've had your way with me
Your way with me

You're very pretty and you're tanned
But I'd rather sleep with my right hand
So I'm lyin in the bottom bunk
Cus baby it just get too ruff
When we get together in the buff
So I'm lyin in the bottom bunk

Now we've gone too far astray
I do believe you've had your way with me
Not much of a holiday
I do believe you've had your way with me
Your way with me


What's He Got?

Saw you on the corner by the cash machine
You made the cutest couple that I ever did see
You hug him and you kiss him and I'm hearing what you're saying
Britannia Junction's not the place for me
Britannia Junction's not the place for me

What's he got that I haven't got?
Where's he been that I've never seen?
Can't bear to see you walking hand in hand
He's kinda cool but I don't understand
What in the world has he got?
Guess he's just better looking than me, oh...

Got a brown leather jacket on and tight blue jeans
Wears a pair of black Beatle boots just like me
He's got a lot of hair on his face and on his head
So why'd I get my hair cut so short instead?
So why'd I get my hair cut so short instead?

What's he got that I haven't got?
Where's he been that I've never seen?
Can't stand to see you walking hand in hand
He's kinda cute but I don't understand
What in the world has he got?
Guess he's just better looking than me, oh...

Yeah!

What's he got that I haven't got?
Where's he been that I've never seen?
Can't bear to see you walking hand in hand
He's kinda cool but I don't understand
What in the world has he got?
Guess he's just better looking than me, oh...

What's he got that I haven't got?
Where's he been that I've never seen?
Can't stand to see you walking hand in hand
He's really cool but I don't understand
What in the world has he got?
Guess he's just better looking than me


You Always Let Me Down

You talk about money
You talk about soul
I guess you better get some before you get too old
Lay down on your side and say bye bye

You talk about money
You talk about soul
I guess you'd better get some before you get too too too old
Lay down on your side and say bye bye

I know they're sayin' that I never tried to stay by your side
Oh baby baby they'll take you for a ride

You always let me down (x3)
You always

You talk about money
There ain't none around
You can't seem to let me have the freedom that I found
Drop your foolish pride and say bye bye

What you sayin' that you haven't tried to say before?
Oh baby you know you been had before

You always let me down (x2)

Yeah yeah yeah yeah!

I know they're sayin' that I never tried to stay by your side
Well baby baby they'll take you for a ride

You always let me down (x3)
You always let me down, first chance you get (x4)
You always let me downs


See A Better Day

Baby baby babe what can I do?
I'm so in love with you
I know you won't believe me but it's true
I'm so in love with you
I'm so in love with you

Just the way the sunlight hits your eyes
Makes me feel alive
My body and my soul have been revived
I feel like I can fly
I feel like I can fly

I can feel you breathe from miles away
It helps me see a better day
A voice inside is telling me to stay
I'm falling deeper every day
I'm falling deeper every day

Something in your smile that made me see
A place I long to be
I look at you and I can't quite believe
That you could be with me
That you could be with me

I can feel you breathe from miles away
It helps me see a better day
A voice inside is telling me to stay
I'm falling deeper every day
I'm falling deeper every day

Gotta call you on the 'phone
'Cos I ain't feeling right
I can't stand to be alone
On these dark dark nights
And you're the only girl
Who can shake my blues away
With your miracle smile
And the things that you say
Yeah

Baby baby babe what can I do?
I'm so in love with you
I know you won't believe me but it's true
I'm so in love with you
I'm so in love with you
