Got the road up ahead
2000 songs in my head
Turn it up loud
And sing like no one is around
I've got music in my veins
I block out the world when it's playing
It will never let me down
It keeps my feet, it does
It keeps my feet so firmly on the ground
I'm coming home
I'm coming home
Turn it up loud
I'm coming home
I set off at 6am
With a hangover in my brain
With my foot down to the floor
I watched the sun come up
I watched the sun come up in East Berlin
I'm coming home
I'm coming home
Turn it up loud
I'm coming home
I've got 19 hours to go
Nothing that coffee wouldn't cure
Wake me up when we get to the border
I'm coming home
I'm coming home
Turn it up loud
I'm coming home
I'm coming home
I'm coming home
Put the record on and turn it up loud
I'm coming home

Those Simple Words
03:36
|

Tell me a story
Tell me a story that I want to hear
Tell me a story
One without any fears
Sing me a song
Sing me a song about something real
Sing me a song
Give me something to feel
Words, words don't mean a thing
But put them in context
And they can be the most powerful thing
Write me a poem
Write me a poem about something I like
Write me a poem
That I can recite through the night
Direct me a movie
One with a happy ending
Direct me a movie
A screenplay to die for
Words, words don't mean a thing
But put them in context
And they can be the most powerful thing
Tell me a story
And read it to me 1000 times
You know its comforting, comforting
Reciting those lines
Sing me a song
One with your favourite chorus
Its the simple things
The simple things that matter the most
Tell me a story
Sing me a song
Write me a poem
Direct me a movie
Words, words don't mean a thing
But put them in context
And they can be the most powerful thing

On the Surface

Take a look at this picture
And tell me what do you see?
I'm guessing
It's not the same as me
Take a walk into the country
And kick up those leaves
Do you like the feeling
Of your face in the breeze?
I may not understand
I may get confused
But that don't mean that I ain't trying
Trying to understand
Have you had a bad day
Because I really can't tell
It's hard to see the inside
When all I see is the shell
I may not understand
I may get confused
But that don't mean that I ain't trying
Trying to understand
Stop shouting!
It sounds all the same to me
You're just stressing everyone out
Pointlessly
I may not understand
I may get confused
But that don't mean that I ain't trying
Trying to understand

Breaking Point
02:57
|

So here I am again
With the same 3 chords
But if I wasn't hitting these strings
I'd be hitting these walls
So here I am again
With the same 3 chords
But if I wasn't hitting these strings
I'd be hitting these walls
I'm breaking
I'm breaking
I'm breaking
I'm at breaking point
I was angry
I had a temper
And for 20 odd years
I've had it suppressed
I was angry
I had a temper
And for 20 odd years
I've had it suppressed
I'm breaking
I'm breaking
I'm breaking
I'm at breaking point
I need to get back up
And get these feelings out of me
Before I grab you all by the throat
And choke, and choke and choke
I'm breaking
I'm breaking
I'm breaking
I'm at breaking point

Do it Again
02:18

Plenty of ideas in the back of my brain
Shelved and forgotten again and again
Come up empty every now and then
Go back to the start and do it again
Go back to the start again
If it doesn't work then try again
Yeah, go back to the start again
Got to try, if you want to change anything
Spend to much worrying about shit
My anxiety doesn't help a bit
Cant change everything
You've got to start small
You've got to stand before you can fall
Lets Go back to the start again
If it doesn't work then try again
Yeah, go back to the start again
Got to try, if you want to change anything
It's possible to do things on your own
Do what you can with a little help on the way
Cant do it all
Need a helping hand
Open your mind
Get your head out of the sand
You'll come up empty every now and then
Go back to the start and do it again
Go back to the start again
If it doesn't work then try again
Yeah, go back to the start again
Got to try, if you want to change anything

Brel
05:26

I'll never forget the day that you packed my bag
A funny thing you might say
But that's when it hit me hard
It doesn't take much
To ignite a spark
To start an adventure
Get out of the dark
I'll always remember Brel
£5 for a beer, but it went down well
we were there until they threw us out
I remember Brel
That's in no doubt
I'll always remember the day you fell in the street
I couldn't stop you from falling
Something I hope to never repeat
So don't be so hard on yourself
Don't beat yourself up
You're truly amazing
And sarcastic as fuck
I'll always remember Brel
£5 for a beer, but it went down well
we were there until they threw us out
I remember Brel
That's in no doubt
Hot chilli and taco
On the couch with Jack Black
Driving at 1am
Pushing through the hospital doors
I thought I would lose you
But now I've gained two
I don't always say it
But I love you
I'll always remember Brel
£5 for a beer, but it went down well
we were there until they threw us out
I remember Brel
That's in no doubt
I'll always remember Brel
£5 for a beer, but it went down well
But that's not the most important thing
It's amazing what fate can bring
