Heart of Fire
03:12
|
|||
Intro+Chorus
Standing, on the field of war
My heart is feeling sore
And it's dripping on the red
It falls onto the floor
Surrounded by naked flames
No longer playing games
My mind is filling up
With a destructive rage
Fire, fire, fire, oh fire
(oh yeah, yeah yeah yeah)
fire, fire, fire, heart of fire
Verse 1
Each day is a battlefield
Crawl out of your bed
Want to scream and cry
Cos life is a fight
How does one keep the smile up
When your heart is breaking, head is aching
Lost all who you are
Been burned and churned to a crisp
Leaving the house creates new risk
(oh yeah)
The sad truth is life just ain't fair
The good ones suffer and the bad ones fare
Well, for the part
Cos their heart ain't charred
and roasting on a spit
Chorus
Standing, on the field of war
My heart is feeling sore
And it's dripping on the red
It falls onto the floor
Surrounded by naked flames
No longer playing games
My mind is filling up
With a destructive rage
Fire, fire, fire, oh fire
(oh yeah, yeah yeah yeah)
fire, fire, fire, heart of fire
Verse 2
Turn on the TV and it's filled with fright
Police shot another young man tonight
Men dragging girls into bushes to rape her
No father to teach son how to treat her
Drag soldiers off to fight in these wars
For a waste of time spent government cause
Pouring money into weapons and arms
When it could be used to feed those that starve
Girl cries to her mum every day
Wondering when it's her dad's holiday
Shall give him leave from Iraq or Iran
Except he was killed in action
Chorus x2
Standing, on the field of war
My heart is feeling sore
And it's dripping on the red
It falls onto the floor
Surrounded by naked flames
No longer playing games
My mind is filling up
With a destructive rage
Fire, fire, fire, oh fire
(oh yeah, yeah yeah yeah)
fire, fire, fire, heart of fire

Guildford's Calling
02:39
|
|||
Verse 1
She looked out at the grey surrounding the skies
Cars would pass the A3, yes they would drive
Tall buildings and fog, offices stacked
Oh the shard and the gherkin and the tall flats
Such surrounding noise lost in a fog
Dreams of leaving the pigeons and the yappy dogs
Float away far away from the big city
In a land that welcomes all fountains of green
Chorus
Calling, calling on Guildford (calling)
Calling, calling on Guildford (calling)
Calling, calling on Guildford (calling)
Calling, calling
Verse 2
To the place that is cold further up North
Cobbled streets, narrow roads, call on old York
Where the parties are loud and they drink until three
Hide away in the liquor and the nicotine
She escaped from the land where the colours are bright
Where the folks were so rude; here they’re polite
But this grass is too green and the roads too small
And the castle looks like somewhere of old
Chorus
Calling, calling on Guildford (calling)
Calling, calling on Guildford (calling)
Calling, calling on Guildford (calling)
Calling, calling
La la la la la la, la la la la x4
Verse 3
Well she went and she found a new land to thrive
Where the shops stuck out more boasting big signs
Medicine treats the liquor and the bitter
Mix of trees, concrete and the river
Touch the heart as you may for that lies home
Not the streets, nor the signs but the hole in your soul
Filled the empty with light built up anew
And now home was bound as she finally knew.
End

Run
03:57

Have you ever felt like you were in a situation that you wanted to escape
And have you ever been somewhere so damn frustrating but the words can't create
It's in that situation you're way too self-conscious you can't allow to let go
And your mind is racing as you look out to tomorrow thinking am I all alone
These words build up, the feelings pile up higher and higher
It climbs every rooftop, yet it's hidden deep within
And no one knows your feelings cos you barely comprehend them yourself
So run from me now
Run from all, that you hold dear
Run from the country, you live in
Run from the rain that pours into your soul,
Disappear, descend, dissolve
Run
Run
Run
Run from the light, run into the night
There's no way to express the deep sadness inside you, the darkness within
Cos some feel strong when they're happy they're on fire but the anger is the same
And all you yearn for is attention when it's the one thing you're not meant to seek
And no amount of nurture, or deep compassion helps your mind to be at ease
On and on, it won't stop it continues
So why do I feel like I'm going round in circles
Deep thoughts in my mind come flooding onto the paper
Do I need help, I do
Run from your friends, family, and your loved ones
Run from the wind as it cries Mary like Hendrix
Run from the rain that pours into your soul
disappear, descend, dissolve
Run (run, run, run)
Run (run, run, run)
Run (run, run, run)
Run from the light, run into the night
Run from all, that you hold dear
Run from the country, you live in
Run from the rain that pours into your soul,
Disappear, descend, dissolve
Run
Run
Run away
Run from the light, run into the night

U Don't Know Me
02:57
|
|||
Verse 1
Ooh you try to bring me down
Tell me bout how shit I am
How I’m such a nasty person
Don’t like the way that I think
Don’t like what I have to say
Wish I would shut my mouth
Pre-chorus
But where I come from I’ve got to express
It’s all that I have to stay sane
Without these words I’ll be nothing
But you don’t know the half of it
Chorus
I know you don’t know me, but that’s ok
We never had much in common, anyway
I know you don’t like me, I’ll live today
Cos I’ll get by without you, any day
Verse 2
You think that I just won’t quit
Can’t let up or give a shit
Trying to appease my ego
If I would just let it go
People would hear and know
That my intentions are pure
Pre-chorus
Would life be better if I wasn’t here?
If I crawled out the window and disappeared
I know you think that I’m a little bitch
But you don’t know the half of it
Chorus
I know you don’t know me, but that’s ok
We never had much in common, anyway
I know you don’t like me, I’ll live today
Cos I’ll get by without you, any day
I know I annoy you, and that's okay
Cos we were never that close, no no, we never had much in common
I know you don't l like what, I have to say
But I’ll get by without you, any day
Bridge/Middle 8
I know you don’t, I know you don’t, I know you don’t know me
I know you don’t, I know you don’t, I know you don’t like me
I know you don’t, I know you don’t, I know you don’t know me
I know you don’t, I know you don’t, I know you don’t like me
Chorus
I know you don’t know me, but that’s okay
We never had much in common, anyway
I know you don’t like me, I’ll live today
Cos I’ll get by without you, any day
I know I annoy you, and that's okay
Cos we were never that close, no no, no no, no no
I know you don't like what I have to say
But I’ll get by without you, any day
End
