Help Me, Help You

I called you
I sent you a text at
1:01am, you never replied
I knew you wouldn't
You're sitting there
Wondering why
You know that I
Didn't mean to hurt you
I apologise, you know I had to desert you
You're so stubborn
You will never call
It's not about the music anymore
At least I tried to salvage the songs from the wreckage
That I know we you
Oooooo
Oooooo
It's just not worth it anymore
Think I'll have to pack my things and go
It just doesn't seem worth it anymore without you
I'm about to grab my things and run
The longer I stay here
The heavier I get
I put my arms around a bolder
And cried into it's should
Why don't you call me
It would make things easy
Why don't you call me
It would make things easy
Help me, Help You
Help me, Help You
I suppose life
Was never meant to be
Perfect harmony
A Sunday stroll
I don’t know where to go
I can’t help thinking about the band
I look around and no one understands
Uncommon people
In a common land
It’s the only thing we share
Is emptiness and despair
It’s happiness, peace, love and care
That got caught at the gate
Why don't you call me
It would make things easy
Why don't you call me
It would make things easy
Why don't you call me
It would make things easy
Help me, Help You

Constant State
04:00

Ohh
Ohh Ohh
I didn’t think you would
Follow me this far
I did it think you could
Walk across enemy lines
Ohh Ohh Ohh Ohh Ohh
Oh I’m in a constant State
I feel so unstable
But at least I’m still alive
And when the story breaks
In this pre written fable
You know we’re just a number in a pack
I didn’t think you would
Find your way through that fire
I didn’t think you could
Pull me out of hell that night
Oh I’m in a constant State
I feel so unstable
But at least I’m still alive
And when the story breaks
In this pre written fable
You know we’re just a number in a pack

Stop Waiting
04:28
|

|
You're in a long black dress
At the last dance
It was so much fun seeing everyone
Your hair was spinning round
To the background sound
We had the last dance
I finally took the chance
But I'm not quite sure anymore
Is this what I think I'm looking for
But I'm not quite sure anymore
Is this what I think I'm looking for
Sit down
Think straight
Can't go back
It's too late
Now, too late now
Sit down
Think straight
Can't go back
It's too late
Now, too late now
Stop Waiting, no ones waiting
Stop Waiting, no ones waiting
Stop Waiting, no ones waiting
Stop Waiting, no ones waiting for you
No ones waiting now
You're in a long black dress
At the same dance
It was so much fun seeing everyone
But I'm not quite sure anymore
Is this what I think I'm looking for
But I'm not quite sure anymore
Is this what I think I'm looking for
Sit down
Think straight
Can't go back
It's too late
Now, too late now
Sit down
Think straight
Can't go back
It's too late
Now, too late now
Stop Waiting, no ones waiting
Stop Waiting, no ones waiting
Stop Waiting, no ones waiting for you
No ones waiting now

Mirror Ball
02:44

Feeling round through the dresser draw
Massacre on and I’m out the door
Ohh I’m going out
I’m going out
I’m going out
So I hail a cab down Nicholson Street
To a place where we always meet
Ohh I’m going out
I’m going out
I’m going out
I’m going out
I’m going out
Oh meet me under the mirror ball
Tonight
Blurred lines between right and wrong
As I sing my way through this song
Oh I’m going out
I’m going out
I’m going out
I’m going out
I’m going out
Oh meet me under the mirror ball
Tonight
Oh meet me under the mirror ball
Tonight
Oh
Oh
Ooo Ooo
Feeling round through the dresser draw
Massacre on and I’m out the door
Ohh I’m going out
I’m going out
I’m going out
I’m going out
I’m going out
Oh meet me under the mirror ball
Tonight
Oh meet me under the mirror ball
Tonight
Oh meet me under the mirror ball
Tonight

Everything
03:34

Far far away,
A lady's flying high
High above the sky
Now she's gone for good
I have something to tell her
To let her know my mind
I saw her picture yesterday
Now she's on a plane away
Now I’m in this one night stay
Regretting all I had to say
Everything feels better
When you are around
Everything feels brighter
When you are around
I adore her
I’m sourrounded by
Corrugated iron
Leaves are in fall
Sun on my side
I had a call from my old friend
She used to say
Everything feels better
When you are around
Everything feels brighter
When you are around
I adore her
Ohh
Ohh
Ohh
Everything feels better
When you are around
Everything feels brighter
When you are around
I adore her
I adore her
I adore her
Ohh

Grown Up School
03:48

|
So I get off the train on platform one at flinders
The escalators packed to rail
Oh we’re moving on up like a snail
Oh I should of took the stair
Oh this is grown up school
Oh this is grown up school
I don’t know what to do
Oh when it comes to you
So I catch the tram down St. Kilda Road
I hop off at the domain
And I walk toward my building
Struggling to care
Oh this is grown up school
Oh this is grown up school
I don’t know what to do
Oh when it comes to you
Da da da da
Da da da da da da da
Da da da da da Oh
I made my boss cry
On my daughters birthday
I told him love won’t die
As I punched him the eye
He never really liked my attitude
The way I stood up for myself
For what I believed in
Ohhhhh
Ooo
Ooo
I had a golden shot
I had a golden shot
Oh this is grown up school
Oh this is grown up school
I don’t know what to do
Oh when it comes to you
Oh this is grown up school
Oh this is grown up school
I don’t know what to do
Oh when it comes to you

Living out dreams
Is hard to do
Casting your mind
Through space and time
Travel the world by the seat of you pants
In a dream like state
Here’s our chance
One day you wake your imagination
And it slips right on to the generation coming after you
Some day you’re part of the population
And you work your life in an occupation planned out for you
What are we gonna do
Please lady please
Hold on to your dreams
They make you you
Please lady please
Hold on to your dreams
They make you you
Carpet rides
And merry go rounds
Fireworks counting decades down
Trading peaches for an honest hour
In marketplace made of hard sapphire
One day you wake your imagination
And it slips right on to the generation coming after you
Some day you’re part of the population
And you work your life in an occupation planned out for you
What are we gonna do
Please lady please
Hold on to your dreams
They make you you
Please lady please
Hold on to your dreams
They make you you

Closing Down Memory Lane

Closing down memeory lane
Weekend dreams and made up scenes
I’ve had the time to write the rhymes
Years have passed, moving fast
Lost my mind, my eyes we’re blind
But I hear, I see, I feel the fear disappear
I don’t wanna be that guy anymore
Waiting for a day that never comes
Oh how was I,
Oh how was I to know
Lift a heavy son this early morn
Wipe the frown far away
Painting clouds in their early form
Ride the silver,line away
So I’m closing down memory lane
Weekend dreams and made up scenes
I’ve had the time to write the rhymes
Years have passed, moving fast
Lost my mind, my eyes we’re blind
But I hear, I see, I feel the fear disappear
