I NEED DIRECTION

I used to feel fine 
you were to be mine 
I need direction 
to take me to you 

I've asked the sunshine 
shadowed the skyline 
I need direction 
to take me to you 

I get brainwaves 
I get visions 
slow reaction 
superstition 

I need the ways and means to get through 
I need an open heart to look to 
nobody sees the same way I do 
I need direction to get through 

followed the ley lines 
the faded out road signs 
I need direction 
to take me to you 

I get spellbound 
I get visions 
slow advances 
indecision 

I need the ways and means to get through 
I need an open heart to look to 
nobody sees the same way I do 
I need direction to get through 

Honest I'd feel fine 
if you were to be mine 
I need direction to take me to you 


I CAN'T FIND MY WAY HOME

I can't find my way home 
It's always there when I'm gone 
Stuck in time since I moved on 

What I've got is what's here 
What you say is what I hear 
Far away life don't come near 

Where I go, I go 
and I know where I go wrong 
What I know, I know 
and I know where I belong 

My mind's made up and I know why 
Doubts cloud up my blue sky 
Seasons change and time goes by 

What I've found has changed me 
Change is what you can't see 
Being home is what found me 

Where I go, I go 
and I know where I go wrong 
What I know, I know 
and I know where I belong 

Where I go, I go 
and I know where I go wrong 
What I know, I know 
and I know where I belong


ACCIDENTIAL LIFE

Give in to me now I want you 
I know the past comes back to haunt you 
there are satellites in heaven 
watching everything you do 

This is a battle that you're losing 
and life was never more confusing 
now you're looking for a way out 
of your accidental life 

[Chorus]
But now your life is on the line 
you can stay inside but you're out of time 

You can't reason in your condition 
and now you see life as a mission 
maybe I know what your missing 
tell me what you're going through 

All your problems are distractions 
still waiting for the main attraction 
and you're looking for a way out 
of your accidental life 

[Repeat chorus twice]


NEAR YOU

I should get out of this seat 
feel the world beneath my feet 
strive to see more of the sun 
try to change what I've become 

Move on up through this down 
take this luck and turn it around 

I get near you but I never seem to reach you 

Somewhere tonight the stars still shine 
somehow I've got to re-align 
fuelled by the promise of the sun 
pulled by the charm this night has spun 

Move on up through this down 
take this luck and turn it around 

I get near you but I never seem to reach you 


HAPPINESS

Don't know what I want to do 
My laziness'll see me through 
Happiness is all I need 
The truth is never guaranteed 

I'll let my state of mind content me 
'til I know where my life has sent me to 

All day long is long enough 
To fill my head with useless stuff 
Wisdom sometimes comes my way 
Stolen from the words you say 

I'll let my state of mind content me 
'til I know where my life has sent me to 

My life feels so worthwhile 
When I go where you send me 
When I can't find a smile 
You've got one to lend me [x2]

What I don't see will sometimes find me 
The truth is not what love will blind me to 

My life feels so worthwhile 
When I go where you send me 
When I can't find a smile 
You've got one to lend me 
My life feels so worthwhile 
When I go where you send me 
When I can't find a smile 
You've got one to lend me [x2]


DUMB DUMB DUMB

Its been playing on my mind 
I don't want to waste your time 
and the thought of you is tearing me apart 

Had a name but now that's gone 
I don't know where I went wrong 
now I'm all alone and drifting in the dark 

Take me back to what I know 
cos I don't know where to go 
and I'm finding it so hard to stay in tune 

But it's hard to comprehend 
getting closer to the end 
and I hope that I'll be feeling better soon 

Now I'm just a fading light 
but I want to feel alright 
and I hope that you can help me through the days 

And I find it hard to sleep 
cos I sold myself so cheap 
do you think about me when I go away


THE TOWN AND THE CITY

Feels good to be here again 
in the cool air and the driving rain 
in the first light that morning brings 
high five to future things 

Chance is waiting just outside the door 
arrange the space ??se change is heading here for sure 
if you can't see it right away 
you've got to listen, you've got to listen 
don't just walk away 
listen for what you're missing 
because this light feels alright 

The high-rise in the setting sun 
progress that has just begun 
the new life that tomorrow brings 
high five to future things 

Motion stopped the wheels from turning round 
silence called but I've been tangled up in sound 
if you can't hear it right away 
you've got to listen, you've got to listen 
don't just walk away 
listen for what you'ree missing 
because this light feels alright 


THE SUN SHINES FROM YOU

Even when the world is grey 
I go where I wanna go, I'm OK 
Rainy skies don't cloud my mind 
I do what I wanna do, do what I wanna do 
I don't know anything but I 
say what I wanna say, say what I wanna say 

Know that I want you 

The sky in my mind is always blue 
In my world the sun shines from you 

Often I know I don't see 
The waves of love that wash over me 
Your love is a paradigm 
For a man just looking for the next cheap rhyme 
Visualizing paradise is a 
thing I don't wanna do, a thing I don't wanna do 

But I know that I want you 

The sky in my mind is always blue 
In my world the sun shines from you 

Life traces the line in space between 
What's gone and what's gonna be 
Time chases me, my mind races 
To find the place where I wanna be 

The sky in my mind is always blue 
In my world the sun shines from you 

Know that I want you 
Know that I want you (end)


STRAIGHT & NARROW

You were on the straight and narrow 
You were going round the bend 
and looking for a friend 

Well you took off optimistic 
but you landed on your head 
and now you're walking dead 

[Chorus]
What did you find 
In the maze of your mind 
Did it feel like the end of the road 

Cigarettes they burnt your fingers 
you were weak and you were sore 
but still you had to score 

When they found you in the basement 
you were face down on the floor 
and you could take no more 

[Chorus]
What did you find 
in the maze of your mind 
did it feel like the end of the road 

Didn't need a second warning 
When you saw the others die 
you couldn't even cry 


CUL DE SAC

Should I just keep rolling 
all over this town 
among the buildings 
and amid the sound 
feels like I've been wading 
this whole season through 
motivation is fading too 

Got no expectation 
no shadow to cast 
no reputation's prepared to last 
free to just keep going 
and wander on through 
the sleeping streets 
in the morning dew 

and it's no good 

Feels like I've been waiting 
this whole season through 
compensation is overdue 

and it's no good 


MY UPTIGHT LIFE

The morning sun opens up my eyes 
What I see is the same world I know you're seeing 
My dreams are real until I realise 
Realising's a slow fade from thought to being 
The waking world is full of cynics' sighs 
Cynicism's a box I don't want to be in 
I'll stay in bed until I stabilize 

I try to write this song 
To move my life along 
I know what I dream of 
I'll save my life for love 

Hidden meanings don't need to hide 
When I hide from the world you're the one who'll find me 
They don't need screening from the world outside 
If the truth's overdue I know you'll remind me 
If the truth police are sniffing out a lie 
I've done nothing in life I can't put behind me 
I'll use my life as an alibi 

Meaning is something I got from you 
Whenever I lost the plot you knew 
What is it I haven't got 
When I've got you 

Meaning is something I got from you 
Whenever I lost the plot you knew 
What is it I haven't got 
When I've got you 

All my life I felt so uptight 
Now it's all right. 


IF I NEVER SEE YOU AGAIN

If I never see you again 
you will stay in my mind [x2] 

We've only got a lifetime [x2]
