Take It
And on a different day
You’ll get your chance you know And on a different day You’ll find the path to go Justify your place I show you patience, you show me pain (show me pain)
I give you time, you’re always late (always late) I make you strong, you choose to fade (choose to fade) I give you cash, the one thing you do is Take it
Take it
Take it
Take it
Take it
Take it
Take it
And on a different day Our fading friendship fails And I will mourn the day So justify your place |

The Day I See You Again
Walking home from work tonight your
Letter warm, I'm holding tight
Said you want to see me soon I phoned you late this afternoon The bar we first met seems alive I'll See you there at eight tonight Shouldn't think like this but is there Something in us meeting now?
All this time, I've waited knowing Though I've changed my heart's still showing I'll wear a new dress, wash my clothes I'll Wear the earrings that you chose
If the man you've grown to be is more Morrison than Morrissey I'll
Tell you straight as we undress that
Things got better when you left and
Though I've banned your name since then I'll Call it with my dying breath
No-one else would have me so I've made this day of all days The day I see you again Will you know me, will I cry Will the years that passed decide that Even we who loved and lied Shouldn't meet again tonight... |
The Self Same Thing
If you tell me what you’re thinking
You see difference is between us, you’re wrong It’s the self same thing There’s a pain that you’ve been feeling And you think that I’m ignoring, you’re wrong It’s the same thing between us We are the same
It’s the self same thing We are the same
It’s the self same thing I’m moody in the mornings
And my friends are very boring, what a shame It’s the self same thing Your conversation’s tired And I know that you’ve been fired, it’s a shame But it’s the same thing between us I hope one day you’ll understand We’ve an equal stake in all we plan So put aside the divide you see I’m a girl, you’re a boy It’s so simple to see so |

The View From Here
Take my hand
We're leaving
It's easy
Understand I need you to see this
I've found the answer
It's somewhere else, 'cause
I can see the view from here
All we've planned is there for us
I was gone a long time, frightened
Being me gets harder each day
And I can see the view from here
All we've planned is here now
Take my hand
We're leaving now
Understand I need you to be there
I've found the answer...
I can see the view from here
All we've planned is very near
I was gone a long time, frightened
All we've planned is here now |

This Is My Home
It amounts to nothing, you said
And the pain should recede each day But you can take my life before I'd agree That to let you in is the right thing for me It's more than I can give And if you ask me I will oblige Before you get me agree that This is my home, you will not forget This is my home, you can not forget And no-one else can take away what's mine again This is my home, you can not forget |

Unchained Monologue
"I love you" means do what I want you to "I promise" means I'll tell you what you want to hear "Believe me" means I'm trying very hard to deceive you "The rest of my life" means for the forseeable future "We'll always be together" means we're too scared to split up "I want us to live together" means I think this is what you want, though I don't, but we'll probably split up soon anyway "I didn't stop thinking about you" means I thought about you once on the way home from a great night out without you "It doesn't suit you" means I'm too polite to tell you that your legs are like corned beef "I'm not pissed" means I'm so pissed I reckon I can convince you that I haven't had a bottle of Jim Bean with my flatmate "I didn't look at anyone else" means I went out with the girls, got so drunk, snogged every man I spoke to, and I'm feeling really guilty "I want to have your children" means I'm pissed "It happened a while ago" means I haven't stopped thinking about it since "What are you thinking?" means I daren't voice my feelings until I know exactly how you feel about me "You don't understand me" means I've been lying to you from the very start "I like you a lot" means I'm trying to persuade myself that I do "I need some time to myself" means a night in with your best friend Don't worry, the voice in the background is only the TV "Just friends" means I've slept with him once and I fully intend to do it again "Don't you trust me?" means if you believe the crap I've just told you... "My ex" means my greatest regret "I don't fancy anyone else" is a lie "I'm so confused" means I know what I want and it's not you "This isn't working out" means I've no intention of making sure it does "We've nothing in common any more" means we never did but it seemed like it after a few pints "You still have a special place in my heart" means I've met someone else "Can we still be friends?" means I know I've just broken your heart "I don't believe in love" means I've been hurt and I'm too scared to get involved again "I don't want a serious relationship" means sex and no consequences "There's no-one else" means there's no-one else right now "I'm not trying anything on" means I know you don't want to but I reckon if I keep trying you'll give in "He doesn't understand me" means I'm feeling unloved "I'd like to take you out some time" means this is my last desperate attempt to pull tonight "You're not my type" means you make my skin crawl "All men are useless" means I've been hurt, again. |

Victoria
Here you come, a twenties mom
With no one else to speak
You made your choice
We heard your voice
And now we all can laugh
This is where I stand
On all the things you've planned
This is your
Victoria
The end for you
This is your
Victoria
The end for you this time
She holds your hand
Your cash and time
The twenty years are more
You wanted this
You wanted this
And now you are a bore
This is where I stand
On all the things you've planned |
Wearchest
I'm lying to you now that
Dignity's mine
Around me the trails of damage I can't fight with memories I can't find I will go and I'll find find some way Believe in the pain with a glass in my hand The walls that surround me The sickness inside Are all that consume me now And I can't fight with memories I can't find I will go and i'll find find some way believe in the pain with a glass in my hand The sound of morning rings in my mind It's easy to blame me most of the time |

Week In, Week Out
It's not you it's not me
It's a feeling now and then
It's not you it's not me
To your face I find it hard to say
A word about your ways
That's O'k
Your smile the bravest face of all
Look your eyes they try to pin me down
Save me from myself
I won't see you...
Your smile the bravest face of all
I don't care for it at all
It's not you it's not me
It's a feeling now and then
It's not you it's not me
Warmth and smiles
As we follow this old game
And we're looking through windows the colour of wine
And second by second
They close leaving me behind |
When The World Knows Your Name
Down the road
Up the bar we sit Where a friendship My longing must resist But up the stairs Up into my heart Where the lovers Who never have the chance And I say what’s needed
Are some memories without pain? It’s hard when the world knows your name Was it just last week?
He was your only flame And the wind on <...> calls his name But you could try me There’s so much more to say And our neighbors let them whisper all day The jukebox says our moment has arrived Leave out all the history for tonight Let’s make the memories That dreamers only claim But it’s hard when the world knows your name |

When You Say Goodbye
She's taking up the room in my head
Like all your rooms hook up with a bed
If you're happy with me and believe what I say
Be strong enough to let her walk away
Do you kiss her lips when you say goodbye?
And all of the people you've been with before
And the keys on the end of her ring fit your door
So I smile and I chat when I see her in town
Expect me to be her when the lights are turned down
Do you kiss her lips when you say goodbye?
Do you miss her hips when you hear me sigh?
Are you in her car when I take the bus home?
Is she in your arms when I walk alone?
Do you miss her hips when you hear me sigh?
Do you kiss her lips when you say goodbye?
And after all this I'm expected to like her
You lie to my face when you say you don't see her
To get my revenge I wanted to spike her
And laugh in her face when she's tripping with fear
When you say goodbye
When you say goodbye
(she's tripping with fear) |
