Richard Mcnamara

With every single step I take I'm leaving
Will you get your story told
Stealing light from fallen stars
The devil that you know knows where you are
Sell your soul, you'll go far

You've only got to stop to make it easy
We were born without the brakes
What we like we say we like
Like what you should hate and make your name

If I seem down then look again

You've got to stop to make it better
And you don't feel it so you'll do it again
I don't need your labels
You can use what's in my name

If I seem down then look again

When only stopping gets you better
And you don't feel it so you'll do it again
I don't need your labels
You can use what's in my name

If I seem down then look again

Look again
Look again
Look again

You've gotta say yes
How can you have doubts
The views too good to jump
Now let me talk you down
Come On
Like butter wouldn't melt in your mouth
Man you've done us proud
No you you're not with us
You please yourself, self, self

I can see my works almost done
I won't stand aside as you wash your life down the drain

You've gotta say yes
How can you have doubts
The views too good to jump
Now let me talk you down
Come On
With your foolish lies and your alibis
I can see my works almost done
I won't stand aside as you wash your life down the drain
Before its begun
With your foolish lies and your foolish pride
I can see my works almost done
I won't stand aside as you wash your life down the drain
Before it's begun
Cos you, you know better
Cos you're hooked and your fucked without me

Stranger,
you ever stole a win off the jaws of defeat?
When its there for the taking you'll find me,
I'll be dancing all over its teeth.

We're never gonna know our place, you and me,
no we're not fitting in

And we know what we're doing,
and its too late to change now we've got the floor.
We've saved our time for living
and we aren't gonna take any shit anymore.
No we ain't gonna take anyshit aymore,
so suck you're evil in.

Youmake changes,
you've always been too down on yourself for years.
You want a bow and take it.

But we freedinners kids with the big ideas,
we'll always take the stick while ignoring the fear
that we could give it in

And we know what we're doing,
and its too late to change now we've got the floor.
We've saved our time for living
and we aren't gonna take any shit anymore.
No we ain't gonna take any hit aymore,
so suck you're evil in.

Yeah you..
Yeah you..
Yeah you..
Yeah you..
Yeah you..
Yeah you..
yeah you..

All the signs were there for me to see,
If I cry out with fear I'll feel more afraid,
So beat the sense back into me,
Cos you are like forbidden fruit out of my reach
And I forgot what I had sometimes

But if everyone has there shot and moves on
and you can't get out the way
well it's you wonder will save

You were mine and now you're mine to want
And I knew if you'd cut the cord rush like balloons I'd fall
It's criminal to pause
as you basked in the seas applause I had it all
And I forgot what I had, sometimes

But if everyone has there shot and moves on
and you can't get out the way
and its all for the best its all a lie
That everyone has their day

Cos if everyone has their shot and moves on
and you just get in the way
well its you wonder will save

La,la,la,
La,la,la,
La,la,la...etc

Don't let them make you feel small with their hands like guns at your head,
they'll claw but they'll never win if you let wonder in...

Cos if everyone has their shot and moves on
and you can't get out the way
and it's all for the best its all a lie
and everyone has their day

Cos if everyone has their shot and moves on

So beat sense back into me,

And I forgot what I had sometimes
But if everyone has there shot and moves on
and you can't get out the way
well it's you wonder will save
If you were mine and now you're mine to want
And I knew if you'd cut the cord

Yeah it's you wonder will save
Yeah it's you wonder will save.

On a night when
Every line is a curse,
I thought I'd save you,
I keep making it worse.
I would give everything I own
for what it takes.
I would give everything I own
for the love it takes.

I won't leave you,
All you have is that spell,
Cast it will you .
Make me glad make me well.
I would give everything I own for what it takes.
I would give everything I own for what it takes.

I will try and leave it all behind and go for what it takes to let it show.
But there's reasons you can't see.
You will be the end of me, with feelings I can't feel.

Cos when I needed someone you left me floored.
That feeling has gone, I can't let go.
You know that I'd change if I had the love it takes.
The love it takes...

It's the way I feel
It's the way I feel
I'm in yer hand do as we planned
Show me the way you kneel
don't you kneel it's the way I feel
hungry for thirst full fit to burst
give me a go at the wheel
cause I, I just don't know which way I should turn
Look around my friend
leave them all behind
I'm gonna take a look at all the things I find
so take a bow leave me out
Last gas pa pa pa pa pa pa pa pa pa paaa pa pa pa naaaaaaa
Last gas pa pa pa pa pa pa pa pa pa paaa pa pa pa naaaaaaa

Look around look around look around your mine
Look around look around look around you'll find

I saw you sing out your praise

Come on and lay

The sunshine of my life's been burned

And i didn't see the way



Swallow down your pride

It's wrong and i'll

Help you hide



I feel sincerely you're too much

You're too much

All at the same time



Oh i

Know much more

Of what i can

Than what i can't do

If i should fail

I'm gonna nail

The blame on you



All my blame on you



Get it wrong and it makes you sore

But you're

Never right



I see it clearly you're too much


You're too much

We're all on the same side



There must be a time

Between the well meaning

When the good will come out

And start the healing

You won't know

How well you've played

Until you've won



And if at first you find

You can't imagine

How good can heal

When you've got nothing worth healing

You won't know

How well you're made

Until you're down



And all you have is gone.



The good will come out

The good will come out

The good will come out

I saw you sing out your praise
Come on and lay
The sunshine of my life's been burned
And I didn't see the way

Swallow down your pride
It's wrong and I'll
Help you hide

I feel sincerely you're too much
You're too much
All at the same time

Oh I
Know much more
Of what I can
Than what I can't do
If I should fail
I'm gonna nail
The blame on you

All my blame on you

Get it wrong and it makes you sore
But you're
Never right

I see it clearly you're too much
You're too much
We're all on the same side

There must be a time
Between the well meaning
When the good will come out
And start the healing
You won't know
How well you've played
Until you've won

And if at first you find
You can't imagine
How good can heal
When you've got nothing worth healing
You won't know
How well you're made
Until you're down

And all you have is gone.

The good will come out
The good will come out
The good will come out

There's gotta be something
Worth having, worth all this
In my life at last one thing
That I can go along with
I lost half of what I could have been
When I realised you weren't meant for me
I wonder which gut feeling to go with
'Til I realised -
That thats all changed
For good, forever
There's gotta be someone
I can count on and fend for
In my life at last someone
Who’d make me surrender
‘Cause half of what I should have been
Walks away when you walk out on me
And I wonder which gut feeling to go with
'Til I realised –
That that’s all changed
For good
No more worries and doubts the good will come out
I've changed for good, forever
Wait until you see I've changed, for good, forever
Say you'll see how much i have changed
For good, forever
Wait until you see I've changed, for good, forever
Just wait until you see
How much a change could make you see
'Cause you don't know better than me

Someday, you're gonna see the way I see things
Break out the box they keep you sealed in
Someday, you find the real thing

Someday, you're gonna feel the isolation
'Cause no one wants you with them
Someday, I'm gonna bring you back
And you won't know how to act

The world you think is safe, is changing fast
And all the runaways, will run their last
If you turn away, you can't turn back
The time has come to make way

And you just don't matter too much to me
If you can't run, 'cause I will carry
You upon my back until you're safe
And you will feel the way I feel someday

Someday, you're gonna feel the way I'm feeling
But all the bad you think I'm suffering
Won't break, It only heals me

And you just don't matter too much to me
If you can't run, 'cause I will carry
You upon my back until you're safe
And you will feel the way I feel someday

For every stone you throw you'll carry
A million more and you'll be sorry
No one will escape who knows the way
And we will not sow as we reap someday

A light is gonna shine
On you and I
A light is gonna shine

And you just don't matter too much to me
If you can't run, 'cause I will carry
You upon my back until you're safe
And you will feel the way I feel someday

For every stone you throw you'll carry
A million more and you'll be sorry
No one will escape who knows the way
And we will not sow as we reap someday

Someday, you're gonna see the way I see things
Break out the box they keep you sealed in
Someday, we're gonna bring you back, yeah

Now, a light is gonna shine
On you and I
A light is gonna shine
Yeah, a light is gonna shine

Well you can do it in your sleep
and then you worry for a week.
But with your magic at your feet,
everybody's falling at your feet.
But the liar gets the part cos
the honest go too far.
So when they laugh don't take it to heart,
you made a plastiscenic work of art,
a plastiscenic work of art.

Save me, save me from the lies I've got in my mind.
Cos it's hard enough to see you're good on the inside.
And the leaving when it works, the hardest to time,
when your dealing in the dirt and healing the blind.

You're looking down the telescope
from the only end you know,
where life is big and we're still close.
Everybody gets another go.

Save me, save me from the lies I've got in my mind.
Cos it's hard enough to see you're good on the inside.
And the leaving when it works, the hardest to time,
when your dealing in the dirt and healing the blind.

Well you can do it in your sleep,

And then you'll worry for a week.

But with the magic up your sleeve,

Everybody's falling at your feet.

Everybody's falling at your feet.

But the liar gets the part,

Cos the honest go to far.

So when they laugh don't take it to heart,

You made a plastiscenic work of art,

Save me, save me from the lies I've got in my mind,
Cos its hard enough to see your good on the inside.
And the leaving when it works, the hardest to time,

As water laps my feet
And sharks surround me I sleep
You smile and line up your army
But my enemies can't get near me
Because i claimed victory that day, now I'm calm
I have seen in your eyes how much you suffer
With the dark
Where shining stars light the heavens
We satellites hope to reach
And my blackwater reflects them for me
Come on lets make our move
They don't see a thing that they can't see through
But shining stars light the heavens
We satellites can't compete
But tonight the blackwater reflects them for me
Where shining stars light the heavens
We lesser lights hope to reach
And my blackwater reflects them for me
for me for me.
Redemption will pour, crashes to the floor
And a million cold thoughts won't stop you feeling warm
Cos the love that you bring conquers all these things

My girl is just a retread
I lost her when I hit the brakes
Our love hits science fiction levels
Now I'm bending like I've made a mistake

Here I stand afraid
With no more to say

And now I feel so insecure
I can't save something I feel so much for
Won't you stay, and leave a light for me

Now I found myself redeemed cos no one seen the bad in me
Or been where I've been
And not turned to leave

And now I feel so insecure
I can't save something I feel so much for
Won't you stay
You know if you had a wing you'd be the last to know you could fly
He strokes your hair to keep you down

Will you fight?
I'll see you fight
Will you fight?
Will you fight?
Will you fight?
Will you fight?
Will you fight?
Will you fight?
Will you fight?
Will you fight?

The good will out and I'll come clean
There's nothing in between
You and me so let me go my way

My girl is just a retread
I lost her when I hit the brakes
Our love hits science fiction levels
Now I'm bending like I've made a mistake

Here I stand afraid
With no more to say

And now I feel so insecure
I can't save something I feel so much for
Won't you stay, and leave a light for me

Now I found myself redeemed cos no one seen the bad in me
Or been where I've been
And not turned to leave

And now I feel so insecure
I can't save something I feel so much for

Will you fight?
Will you fight?
Will you fight?
Will you fight?
Will you fight?
Will you fight?
Will you fight?

The good will out and I'll come clean
There's nothing in between
You and me so let me go my way

You drag yourself over the coals,
I know you're sorry to go
but when all you can do is say so,
I know it's over

I won't waste one more hour of my life,
I know some people would cry,
well it's funny that none spring to mind,
now it's over...

and I know that this feeling won't last,
I know that this feeling wont last...
Time after time after time,
there's never reason in your rhyme,
just tryin' to feel one last goodbye, now it's over...

shake some sense into us both,
I was the last one you told,
why does no-one say shit till' it shows now it's over...

and I know that this feeling won't last,
I know that this feeling won't last...

The sun, it shines on me
So i tell myself for a hope in this hell
That I should stay
Right down here where I fell.
la la laaa la laaa etc.loadsa

Out of nothing you came to my arms and you're right
I fell every time
You're the first and the last time that I'll ever try
So dry your eyes

I'll say goodbye
I'll say goodbye

I'm left hanging like all dancing bears
I need rope to keep me in line
I can't stop them, there's more bombshells coming
I choke more words, more lies

I'll say goodbye
I'll say goodbye

I can't believe it's come to this
Banging on a sinking ship, hoping someone hears my list
For every trial I take a fall
You never notice it no more

What we had won't conquer all
While the shots still ringing out
You do the worst to bring me down
You do the worst to take me out

I'll say goodbye
I'll say goodbye

So, something I was trying to stall
Made its way to you
And you rush in
Like you always do
Hmm, everything I have is spent
and I've got used to you
home
Don't you let
Your mind play tricks on you

You don't have to do anything that's new,
but seein' you try to wins me back
with no big heart attacks
It's all been one big act
Cos now you're nobody
I'll have you
I'll have it all

I spend my days thinking of you

I spend my days thinking of you
and all weve done
praying you'll never think of me

When you left my side I took the freedom as a sign
and left the past in flames behind me,
Cos I'd much sooner owe you for all you've done
than ever bow down for you

Find the will to hit and
thats when you'll get your stick
you keep your clinging fingers off me.

Everybody gets to breath
every Adam every Eve,
but the way that we lost out now
Is to do it differently,
I want her and you want free,
thats the way that we lost out.

You do do do...

If you can't bring it in then don't you call,
no your not gonna find it here.
And the awful weight
spread across me when I wake
Is your loving arm around me

Everybody gets to breath
every Adam every Eve,
but the way that we lost out now
Is to do it differently,
I want her and you want free,
thats the way that we lost out.

You do do do...

You break the wrongs for your tears, so sad
To end a part of me just like that
I feel lost and still unaware
Throw your worries down with your cares

All I've got to show me I'm good
Is the fight I've got what I do so bad
The guilt connects it but it's not enough
To light the way when it's all I had

Near life
Near life

You say you work in some simple ways
You don't feel guilt, then you'll never pay
'Cos guilt won't take you if you look and see
Your life's a hurdle and it's out of reach

You tell her pain or how they should pay
You start a feeling that you'll never change
I'm on a ship and I've found the sails
I've got my hammer, all I see is nails

Near life

You say it works in some simple ways
You don't feel guilt, then you'll never pay
'Cos guilt won't take you if you look and see
Your life's a hurdle and its out of reach

You tell her pain and how they should pay
You start a feeling that you'll never change
I'm on a ship and I've found the sails
I've got my hammer, all I see is nails

Near life
Near life
Near life

Don't wanna let you down

I've been lucky I was lost

Now I'm found

You could be the first in the universe

Who's glad they're watered down

And that's why I get that shallow feeling that you like

I'll never learn that I can't win

Don't wanna make a row

You do

And it's your loss

I'm around

I don't mind doing everything

Hallelujah you're the one come back now

Sometimes I get the shallow feeling that you like

That you're hurt don't change a thing



Because my weakness

is none of your business

But bad will always collect

To one big melting pot

And all my weakness

is none of your business

Somehow it always collects

To one big melting pot



This could be our time

This could be our time

This could be our time

Don't wanna let you down
I've been lucky I was lost
Now I'm found

You could be the first in the universe
Who's glad they're watered down

And that's why I get that shallow feeling that you like
I'll never learn that I can't win

Don't wanna make a row
You do And it's your loss I'm around
I don't mind doing everything
Hallelujah you're the one come back now

Sometimes I get the shallow feeling that you like
That you're hurt don't change a thing

Because my weakness is none of your business
But bad will always collect
To one big melting pot
And all my weakness is none of your business
Somehow it always collects
To one big melting pot

This could be our time
This could be our time
This could be our time

Don't wanna let you down
I've been lucky I was lost
Now I'm found

You could be the first in the universe
Who's glad they're watered down

And that's why I get that shallow feeling that you like
I'll never learn that I can't win

Don't wanna make a row
You do And it's your loss I'm around
I don't mind doing everything
Hallelujah you're the one come back now

Sometimes I get the shallow feeling that you like
That you're hurt don't change a thing

Because my weakness is none of your business
But bad will always collect
To one big melting pot
And all my weakness is none of your business
Somehow it always collects
To one big melting pot

This could be our time
This could be our time
This could be our time

Don't wanna let you down

I've been lucky I was lost

Now I'm found

You could be the first in the universe

Who's glad they're watered down

And that's why I get that shallow feeling that you like

I'll never learn that I can't win

Don't wanna make a row

You do

And it's your loss

I'm around

I don't mind doing everything

Hallelujah you're the one come back now

Sometimes I get the shallow feeling that you like

That you're hurt don't change a thing



Because my weakness

is none of your business

But bad will always collect

To one big melting pot

And all my weakness

is none of your business

Somehow it always collects

To one big melting pot



This could be our time

This could be our time

This could be our time

Many would learn and many would hurt and many would chase you away
And many would fear but I'm not here to run when things go astray

And many would learn and many would turn and many would run for their lives
But I'm not them I'll dig in I'll always be there by your side
Away way down

One day my heart will leap and I will dance for joy
And not reach for the phone the pills or the tape
Cause you're as honest as a carwreck
And sirens never love
They just sing and lure your swimming soul away
Down with your mistakes

Away way down

By twist of fate an hour too late I come to my senses again
But you're not here just cold and near you left just as living made sense

Why did you run I'll always let you leave
You aren't the first to hit and run away from me
As I bounce along the open road
I'm outnumbered and alone

I'm over the moon in ways you won't believe
You say it's too soon for you to know what all this means
If I say that I want all you have
I just want it all back

And though we could have made it last
You've gotta do more than that
You've got to take all you have and pour and pour
You're never gonna see the light
You've got to leave now behind
You're never going to know what's right fro what went wrong
So ignore all the facts
And come running straight back to me to me

It's not a wall you've only me to beat
So you took it all and made it far away from me
Now you're out of slight behind these eyes
And you will stay there all my life

Why did you run I'll always let leave
You arne't the first to hit and run away from me
As I bounce along the open road
I'm outnumbered and alone

I'm over the moon in ways you won't believe
You say it's too soon for you to know what all this means
If I say that I want all you have
I just want it all back

And though we could have made it last
You've gotta do more than that
You've got to take all you have and pour and pour
You're never gonna see the light
You've got to leave now behind
You're never going to know whats right for what went wrong
So ignore all the facts
And come running straight back to me to me

It's not a wall you've only me to beat
So you took it all and made it far away from me
Now you're out of sight behind these eyes
And you will stay there all my life

Why did you run I'll always let leave
You arne't the first to hit and run away from me
As I bounce along the open road
I'm outnumbered and alone

I'm over the moon in ways you won't believe
You say it's too soon for you to know what all this means
If I say that I want all you have
I just want it all back

And though we could have made it last
You've gotta do more than that
You've got to take all you have and pour and pour
You're never gonna see the light
You've got to leave now behind
You're never going to know whats right for what went wrong
So ignore all the facts
And come running straight back to me to me

It's not a wall you've only me to beat
So you took it all and made it far away from me
Now you're out of sight behind these eyes
And you will stay there all my life

I don't wanna make you come clean
Lay out your life in front
In front of me

Like the stars that shine through your fingers
A simple word
Is all that I need

And I
Won't need to hurt no more

You were all you could have been
It's bad you blamed yourself
Worse I agreed

We got this far by lying like winners
With simple words
That had to be real

Now hush
Don't you make a sound
I'm a believer now

And I
Don't wanna make the same mistakes
I know everything you do comes back
And I
Know it's not over yet
