Long Way Home I don’t remember these roads All of these shops have closed Most of these faces They’re still the same If it’s sorrow that you’re looking for Look no further If you are listening for the wind to call your name You could be waiting a while No matter how close it feels It’s a long way home You can try to keep it inside But it's a long way home What can I say? I miss you? Would that make it ok? I don’t think so No matter how close it feels It’s a long way home

Did You Even Notice? Did you even notice the time, slipping away? Slipping away.. Did you even notice your mind, drifting away? Drifting away.. Where did it all go wrong? Where did it all go wrong? Did you even notice your mind, drifting away? Drifting away.. Did you even notice the time, slipping away? Slipping away.. Where did it all go wrong? Where did it all go wrong?

Deliverance 03:20
Deliverance Working for pittance but I get my smoke Talk of dreams you know I wrote that joke Hit the local for the usual scoops Rolling some and talking some The breeze we shoot It won’t always be like this One day we will get our deliverance In early for my sins Day filled with blank stares Light penetrates through the eyelids It won’t always be like this One day we will get our deliverance Trawling through endless waves To find there is no shore They say the heart gives the spirit wings

Holding 04:12
Holding Tired bones fed my natures blood flow From the rivers to the sands I am merely a leaf falling and searching for a place to land Work the night shift into the hours to emerge a ghostly soul devoured Broken hands scrapping the gutters Delayed all plans for the lives of others You want to scream from deep within But you can’t breathe you just keep holding Fear is on the inside another state of mind I see it in the darkness I see it in the light Hope is but a vIrtue with patience by its side Re-discovering what you already knew but you lost over time Ask to take moment to reflect before its gone I hope you hear these words for this is not a.. song Broken hands scrapping the gutters Delayed all plans for the lives of others You want to scream from deep within But you can’t breathe you just keep holding

Foutain of Youth Looking out over a sea of distress Holding on with nothing in my hands That break in your heart feels like it'll never mend The mind can overcome if you give it a chance Trying so hard to reach that prize Life becomes a thousand yard stare in someone else's eyes The clouds clear, the spirits rise Channel that fear into a positive cry This fountain of youth is running out of water Last night is a haze from a dream you knew Shallowness is found in every fool The stain glass appears to be cracked Another illusion like the lord coming back The clouds clear, the spirits rise Channel that fear into a positive cry This fountain of youth is running out of water The drips slip through You're bound to be found They'll trace your steps From the core to the mouth There's no escaping

Laid to Waste Old rats, new ship So this is what it feels like to be stranded on it.. Miracle to my eyes Another key to the answer inside Is it something invisible that you chose to believe? See my reflection in a window But I don’t recognise what I see Tear in the flesh Blood from the mouth Let’s see you dig yourself out Build it up just to tear it down Parasites have a field day underground Is it something invisible that you chose to believe? See my reflection in a window But I don’t recognise what I see Mirror to mirror Dust to dust Blanket of rememberence From the core to the cusp Your worrying will suck you dry Until you’re laid to waste Under and endless sky We’re all laid to waste

In Reverse 04:28
In Reverse The gravel beneath the tyres is creeping outside the caravan Awake on the floor, folks next door in the kitchen drinking Falling asleep to the laughter And the glasses clinking The patterned curtains The rain against the pane The memories that never leave They just sit in the back room Gathering dust never sinking I miss the values, that today, seem to me Left by the wayside Waiting for a helping hand To pick them up and understand The touch, the feeling, the belonging.. The patterned curtains The rain against the pane The memories that never leave They just sit in the back room Gathering dust never sinking Just a life lived in reverse I’ll never forget her words Are you happy son?
