Crashland
You took your own life in your hands You had to escape him somehow Oh you knew You knew it would hurt Pull yourself free With the wreckage at your feet Feel the relief All your doubts and wounds will be Gone Gone Crashlander There's damage, but at least you're alive The hardest thing you could have done, you've done now It gets easy from here As you turn your back on The constellation you flew from You are hurting, lonely, Hopeful, happy Pull yourself free With the wreckage at your feet There's a million worlds to explore When you're ready the cosmos is yours Yours. |

I've been
Trying Fixing the problem You pressed The button To launch yourself While I was outside I heard a spark ignite I saw a ball of light I watched you lifting off There could be no mistake My hope and faith misplaced I saw you lifting off You pressed The button To launch yourself While I was outside You left me stranded While you broke through The atmosphere I guess you thought you'd start A new clean sheet and heart From when you lifted off I watched you disappear A ringing in my ear From when you lifted off You pressed The button To launch yourself While I was outside You left me stranded While you broke through To other worlds You left Me stranded While you broke through To other worlds You pressed The button To launch yourself While I was outside You left Me stranded You launched yourself While I was outside You pressed The button To launch yourself While I was outside You left Me stranded You launched yourself While I was outside |

Come with me
There's something you should see In the evening sky Put on your warmest coat We'll be breathing ghosts And they don't want us to see So they join the clouds Which clot above our heads But on a clear night, If you look close enough You can just make out Love And other planets We are not alone And normally It's bright enough to see With a naked eye I held you close to me And I felt you smile And you whispered in my ear I know it's there Let's make our own light But on a clear night If you look close enough You can just make out Love and other planets We are not alone And on this clear night If I hold you close enough I can feel love. |

So here we are
And we're looking for A treasure Take a deep breath And follow me To the sea We're nearly there Take a deep breath And follow me Find what you seek Let's dive ‘Cause I'm seasick from this solid ground We're so close, I think we Have found it here It's at the tips of our fingers Feel it at the tips of our tongues Let's dive ‘Cause I'm seasick from the solid ground Let's dive Who knows what we might find around |

Don't look so forlorn
‘Cause something's going to come I don't know where from. I don't know where Don't you look so sad ‘Cause something's going to come I don't know where from, I don't know where Don't you look at me Like things aren't going to be The way we thought they'd be ‘Cause we've got love, Always Love always. La La La-La La La-La La Stop. Don't you turn around Have faith in what you chose ‘Cause life can sense your attitude I don't know how You've got to realise That hope looks in your eyes If you look away it flies Let's look forward If you still believe That things are going to be Like we hoped they'd be Then we'll have love Always Love always La La La-La La La-La La |

You marked
The back of my hand You drew a heart And some tiny dots And a spiral Which reminded me Of the Milky Way And it made me think If our galaxy And Andromeda Felt like you and me Were like the way we are They couldn't feel as vast And if they join At six billion lives per second And they danced around Linking spiral arms As they'd spin Spin through infinity They couldn't feel as vast As I feel now Galactic tectonic shifts In my chest And behind my eyes And yet the smallest vibration Like the touch of your pen Makes my hair makes my hair stand on end You marked The back of my hand You drew a heart And some tiny dots And a spiral Which together spell ‘I want you' In electricity |

I know that I've
Not been the same Since the day we walked around and marvelled at the firmament Both wrapped up In a blanket that was handed down And it struck me like a meteor It's hard to explain, so hard to explain how I'm so sure These lights are meaningful We've got to understand And work out what they say These lights are meaningful They'll tell what we forgot We have a mission here These lights are meaningful We must translate them now Else we'll just float around We have reason here Something beyond ourselves These lights are meaningful I needed purpose, I was given one To find the reasons for life Etched between the distant suns and The Zodiac gives clues to the wealth of all that once we knew It's hard to explain so hard to explain how I'm so sure These lights are meaningful We have forgot ourselves We drift on oblivious These lights are meaningful A message writ out large Lest we forget ourselves These lights are meaningful This is our final chance We had a mission here once There not just pretty sparks They're more than tiny stars These lights are meaningful We have a reason here We must resolve ourselves Maybe I got it wrong Maybe I am just alone Anything to feel alive Take my hand and take me home Make me feel like I'm not alone It's what I need |

If we received a warning call,
Would we change at all? Close your eyes and make believe And tell me what you see. Will we rise From our sleep Like a bolt from the blue? Will we realise? If they found a tube in outer space And no-one knew who put it there. If they looked inside and Found out they'd lived lonely lives, Followed by a lonesome death They sent it hoping we would learn They blew it here with their final breath. They made a list of their mistakes- It looked a lot like ours. If it happened, do you think we'd learn? Do you think we'd learn? Will we rise From our sleep Like a bolt from the blue? Will we realise? If they knew how to talk through space, And we received a warning call Do you think we'd learn? Would it be in vain? Do you think we'd learn? Let's not end our days Like they did on earth. |

Beware when you Call the Devil ‘cause Every Favour Garnered Has an Intention. Jars of Kisses Left on the Mantle Next to Orbs of Peace and Quiet. Reach out and Save me Touch me Utter those Very Words that once You sang to me with my Zither And after you Brought me the Choice and I Decided Every chance I'll Fight for feeling Golden and Hopeful It might Just be the Key to Living My life Nobly O-oh O-oh Please come Quickly Rescue me with your Soothing Touch it Understands the Very heart and Where you touch me You trace lines and Zig-zags on the insides of my Arms |

Searching
I wore out my telescope And I nearly gave up hope of finding anything Discovery Was an accidental thing A reflection slipping in To the corner of my eye I saw you And moon And hope flooded through me I just needed proof I saw you and moon I had to get closer For a look Alone and A universe away I was drawn to make my way to where the living are My eyelids Filled with hypnogogic shapes And my body wracked with shakes I travelled light years In heart beats I saw you and moon Dancing together against dark blue I saw you and moon I never felt lonely ‘til I saw you Been making Music With instruments Of science Distracted And happy And so self Reliant Then I saw you and moon And hope flooded through me And I chased proof But I left, I left too soon ‘cause light is a liar And so are you I saw you and moon But the image was older Than the truth When I arrived I found only tombs ‘cause light is a liar Telling old truths Having had something to aim for Has left me lost. |

Walk on this side for a while if you can
Turn on the smile as we talk if you want Speak your insides and my head for some time I hope you're alright, but I know I sit by your side as you sleep for a while Your secret's unbound and blood's lost as it's found Recover the life that you lost at that time You'll be alright - I just know. |

Home is where your heart comes from
But what do you do when your heart's gone With everything you need? You got your stuff you packed your bags You checked your things made sure you had Everything you need You upped, you left, you went away To love to fight another day 'gainst everything you need Laa daa day laa daa day laa daa day laa daa day You severed your ties Left us all behind You said all your goodbyes To everything you need You severed your ties Re-forge them make it right Come back with open eyes To everything you need 'cause moments they can turn to dreams And hopes and wants can sometimes seem Like everything you need But treated bad then left alone You cried, we said to come back home To everything you need Laa daa day laa daa day laa daa day laa daa day You severed your ties Left us all behind You said all your goodbyes To everything you need You severed your ties Re-forge them make it right Come back with open eyes To everything you need |

Wherever you've gone it's the same to me
Be it ocean or London - wherever you call home. All dressed up in your finery You'll take what you can again And every love I've ever had With envy and vanity Has sworn me to secrecy So tell me: how can we share out these things That weren't mine or yours, but ours? I wonder if you are alone tonight You're probably laughing at me Wearing your clothes and your make up That you always left off for me It's alright Everything will be alright We had a good time There's plenty more left for me It's alright Everything will be alright Though it might take a long time You'll be a memory It sunned and it rained and it sunned again On the trip that I took away And looking back with all honesty It reflected the moods that I had |

I came 'cause you asked me to, so you
didn't have to drive all alone Now I did the favour here, not you Remember, I did the favour here I've been smiling my best smile I've been laughing with your friends doing everything you asked on the way and I don't know what I've done but we haven't talked for hours and I'm waiting for the long drive home Do you believe in me enough to say so? She came from another life of mine Oh she came from another life A face to the name that dampened days She's a face and a body and smile But we hardly said a word I begin to wish we had as the headlamps of the cars stream by And the radio has broke and I'm lost for things to say as we're speeding on the long drive home Looking at you with your eyes firmly fixed on the road and your mind on an hour ago And you are looking at me like you think that I started a war While white lights So like tracers shoot by Do you believe in me enough to say so? |

I'd do just about anything
If I could just catch your eye But I'm a blade in a field Way below in the floor I'm one in a million - Got to try to be more I glowed in gold Like a tiny mote of dust in a sunbeam And we all must seem alike as we float here I want you more than indifferent If I could just catch your eye But I'm a fish in the sea Would you know what you saw? I'm one in a million - Got to try to be more I fell to you Like a tiny drop of rain in a cloudburst But I guess you didn't notice so I glowed in gold Like a tiny mote of dust in a sunbeam But we all must seem alike as we float here |

It's night time
I'm sleepy Will you take me home? It's snowing Out here Will you keep me warm? Could this be my home for tonight? Rest my head upon the pillow Need to stop my head from spinning I can't think Clearly But I saw you smile I'm sure I saw you smile We had a nice time We had such the nice time Will you take my hand? Could this be my home for tonight? Rest my head upon the pillow Close my eyes - I'll slumber easy here Wake me With kisses Like butterflies Could this be my home for tonight? Rest my head upon the pillow Close my eyes - I'll slumber easy here Could it be I've found my home? |

Though I owe you,
I owe you no allegiance But I still feel guilty for the things that I have done These past fifteen days It was easy To just let it happen I've been with people who sing gorgeous songs While you're just ringing in my ear And filling with envy Who will you turn to now? It was your decision I won't hear you with hating and screaming still ringing in my ear You threw me away Away to the jackals But the jackals they showed me a good time While you're just ringing in my ear I toasted marshmallows While you burned our bridges down And I looked at landscapes that I had forgotten Lit up by the fire And filling with envy Who will you turn to now? It was your decision I won't hear you With hating and screaming still ringing in my ear It's a sunny September The colours are bright here And the birds sing of beautiful places While you are just ringing in my ear |

Watch the dark clouds bruising
Bellies flushed with water They swell above your heads Pull your coats around you Feel the wind cut through them Scraping at your bones Hold her in the falling rain Hold him like you've never done Let this be a moment That you won't forget That you won't forget That you won't forget All your life ‘til you die Statued close together A precious, tender moment A solemn, sombre time Hold her in the falling rain Hold him like you've never done Let this be a moment That you won't forget That you won't forget That you won't forget All your life ‘til you die |

Look to the stars to guide you I hope you find All you need in this life to get by And if all the lights that lead you Lead you to my door It will always be open There will always be lights on There will always be room at my table for you Take what you want, But leave us a sign You become what you left behind I hope you find All you need in this life to get by And if all the lights that lead you Lead you to my door It will always be open There will always be lights on There will always be room at my table to you |

I wish that I'd arrived a little sooner -
You really should have called we'd have come here right away You tried to help yourself but you got it wrong You've thrown yourself Into the flames 'cause you're covered in cold But these are your friends They give out a nice warm glow You've tried so hard to see for yourself Your perspective is wrong These are your friends Let them come guide you on Listen now - now's the time to listen There're lessons to be learned I've seen this before in my own life You feel covered up, removed from the world around you With all your senses dulled you'd do anything to feel You tried to help yourself, but you got it wrong You've thrown yourself Into the flames 'cause you're covered in cold But these are your friends They give out a nice warm glow What have you done? You're cutting your cord You're floating in space But these are your friends They'll be your star-map home Everybody needs some help sometimes |

you cut your head on the bedside table.
your temple bled as you were unable to remember the lines of what you were reading about someone deciding to quit speaking. what i was just reading about someone deciding to quit speaking began to dissolve into my lap as the words gave up their attempts at meaning. |
