Weight of The World

I've got a lot to say about the way we're heading out of this life
Do we stay the same or change?
I've got a lot of questions but no one around here will ever answer me
I've got a lot of questions but no one around here will ever answer me
(Get up! Get up!)
You've got a lot to learn about where your moneys burnt
Stealing politicians with their corrupt policies "don't do nothing for me"
(Get up! Get up!)
You've got a lot to learn about making your voice heard
We'll feel the weight of the world on our shoulders
But it wont weigh us down
Lets do this one more time
Breathe it in, breathe it out just to prove you're still alive
And I know we'll find the answers
You've had a million chances
But no one around here will give you another one
You've had a million chances
But no one around here will give you another one
Speak now or forever hold your peace

(White riot! White noise!)
In the valley of death would you still call his name?
Or would you run and look for something else
When Nietzsche said that "God was dead"
He just meant that we were starting again
Follow blindly and if its right
It'll feel right in your bones
(We are the thieves in the night)
We are the ones who will start a war
You wont get out of here alive
(We are the thieves in the night)
We are the ones who will run away
You wont catch your god laughing at me
(White riot! White noise!)
You better pray that the rapture comes along real soon
Otherwise you'll be left out in the lurch
I believe in the devil and god the same
There's a devil. And the devil knows my name
Follow blindly, there's got to be somewhere greater than here

Don't Let It Go
04:10

If you cannont prove it how the hell do you expect us to believe?
In criminal justice? What about the justice for six families?
Oh hold in tight, don't ever lose the fight
You've got to stay strong now
Got to make it right
Don't believe the truth that they fed to you
Got to make it out of here alive
We are all humans here
Darling shed those tears
I see the hope fading in your eyes
But I say
Don't Let it go
Cos I see the pain in,
We let you down
We let you rot
Throw away the key
And leave the kids inside a world of misery
To dream of something better
To leave the town that turned its back on their own family

Whats wrong with the scene these days?
You've got the same old bands with the same old songs and you laugh if they don't sound the same
Take aim and fire away
Ive got a target on my chest with a bullet proof vest but im feeling your shots all the same
You wont ever bring me down
We laugh at things you spread around town
If you live in a glass house don't throw stones
We will always make you proud
There will be no stopping us now
Get us started I swear we'll be unstoppable
Give me something,
Something to sing about
We stare at all the same rock stars
Month after month, Year after year we worship the gods from afar
Lets start again right now
Where the old get out and the young stay young and we sing our songs from the fucking heart.
We are the new kings of this town
We came along to bring you down

Neon Lights

Big city, big smoke, big apple, big life
Big reputation but not as big as mine
All in all you've got to get out while you can this time
People running people pushing to get past me
Everybodys in a rush to get home
I cant hear a thing. Hands up on my ears
Try and drown it out
Up above all I see are lights
Neon skies are far too bright
Take me off in a little spaceships back home
Up above all I see are lights
Neon skies are far too bright
Take me off in a little spaceship back home
I don't think that I belong
Big ego, big dreams, big ambition, big lies
Big reputation but half as big as mine
Please, Please, Please don't ever make another one of these
Cameras flashing, taxis screeching, police sirens
Keep the tourists on the edge of their seats
Exaggerate the truth so they will never know whats really going on
Run Away! Run away from the city!
Run Away! Run Away!
Up above all I see are lights
Neon skies are far too bright
Take me off in a little spaceships back home
Up above all I see are lights
Neon skies are far too bright
Take me off in a little spaceship,
Take me off in a runaway train
Take me off in a little black car cos I don't belong

Lets Stay Young
04:12
|

I walk around this town and I cant see
The places that we roamed as kids have all deserted me
Where the hells my city gone I just don't understand
Newport City's changed so much that I cant stand
I don't think I'd recognize you anymore
Lets stay young
Whats the point in growing old?
Lets stay young
Lets stay young
I walk around this town and I cant see
The shops and streets are building sites so many homes empty
Where the hells my city gone I just don't understand
Crumpled concrete rules the street and I cant stand it
Something old, something new
Something borrowed, Something blue
Keeps us hanging onto you
Keeps that halo over you

Cross My Heart (Demo 1)

So it seems good guys really do finish last
All you have are lies I see through your disguise
Fool me once and shamed on you
What is your problem when I'm already out of the frame
Fool me twice and shame on me
You better run kid before the truth catches up with you
All the lights are shining down on you
And you've got nowhere left to move
One day she'll find out the truth
You wont get away with this
Honest eyes never speak when they're called into speak
When I was down you were the vampire sucking into me
would a human really do this to you?
Probably not but thats not what we're dealing with
Would a monster show you the truth?

Why So Serious
03:03
|
|||
|
Why so serious?
People acting like its the end of the world
What the hell is wrong with them?
What can we do what can we say to make a difference this time
Bad boys on the rocks again it's no surprise
Bad boys on the rocks again its in his eyes
The rope is round his neck but the rope is all frayed
Turns around and looks at you, smiling while his singing
Wait
I'm alright
I've danced with devils in the pale moonlight
I'm alright
I've danced with devils in the pale moonlight
Why so serious?
Why so serious?
People acting like they are only three words
What the hell do they know and
What can we do what can we say to save you from yourself
You can say you mean it and you dont know why
You can say you mean it but you compromise
The rope is round his neck but the rope is all frayed
This is my town now he says and we're not going to listen to him
Wait
I'm alright
I've danced with devils in the pale moonlight
I'm alright
I've danced with devils in the pale moonlight
Why so serious?

Have you taken everything you need?
Are you still working on a different frequency?
The doctors here another morning call
Head up kid don't feel so ashamed
It happens to us all
I'm losing my head once again
Lost in translation I take the blame
Feeling so distant with a pinch of feeling shamed
The doctors here another morning call
Rudolph Hess never felt so ashamed when he was in his own four walls
Just keep believing
Just keep believing
And pray for the other side
Suit yourself you're better than me
You wont let it lie till i'm six feet deep
Why in the world wont you let me sleep?
Please lord let me sleep

Lost @ Sea
03:32
|
|||
|
Why did it have to be so soon?
unexpected, unannounced and out of the blue
How can I call it home again?
Empty chairs and empty beds
All I have are dreams of you
Jesus please don't take my baby away
You took away the best of us, we'll never be the same
I know he's a good one but he's so much left to say
Heaven can wait I'm now ready
To let him go
I feel the waves crash over me
But you're the one lost at sea

Someone's Watching Me
03:25
|

Always feel like someone's watching me
Even at times when i'm sound asleep
Im in trouble if I feel excited
I'm in trouble if I feel divided
Everything I used to know is a memory
Run!
I'm on the rooftop singing
Find it hard to believe in
Finding my own way
Run!
I'm on the rooftop singing
You've got to believe me I'm running out of time
I'm hanging off this bridge with my bare hands
I'd have you next to me if this was planned
Im in trouble if I feel elated
I'm in trouble if I feel sedated
Everyone I used to love is a memory
