You tell me you love me,
Then you tell me you don't
You tell me little lies and I wish that you won't
Only sometimes, only sometimes.

You tell me you miss me,
Then you tell me you don't
You promise to ring me, then you say you forgot
Only sometimes, only sometimes

My friends all adore you,
Say I'm losing the plot.
How can I grumble when I've got what I've got?
Only sometimes, only sometimes

I act like it's cool,
That it's not going too fast
But deep down I'm shaking really want this to last
Not just sometimes, not just sometimes

Ah hah

You tell me you love me,
Then you tell me you don't
You tell me little lies and I wish that you won't
Only sometimes, only sometimes

You tell me you miss me,
Then you tell me you don't
You promise to ring me, then you say you forgot
Only sometimes, only sometimes

Take your time
Be it mine
'Cause I will be
All the strength you need
And I will show you a way

I don't mind
If you cry
I want to be
Holding your hand
And you can feel
You can lean
Don't turn away

All is lost
But if you try
You can see
There's a place for you
Where I will know
Your pain
Don't turn away

It's in believing
No good deceiving you
There's a place for you
You'll just have to keep it strong
And I wont turn away from you

So you say we should just be friends Adam
But I know when I get the bends
That I'll hate you so

So you say we should drift apart Adam
But I know that'll break my heart
And I'll hate you so
'Cause I loved you so

So you say I can be afraid
But I know I would have strayed
I sit and miss you so
A batch of alcohol ceases to control

Don't say you'll think about me
Or say that you can live without me
Didn't we make it nearly
For everything that I hold dearly
How many ways can I say plainly, we can
Before it wore on us thinly
To each and every degree
You've got me in agony

So you say I should call sometime Adam
But I know that'll make you cry
I'll say I hate you so
That you burned me so

So you say we should make it work Adam
But how long does this feeling hurt
I'm sure you'd like to know
'Cause I loved you so

Don't say you'll think about me
Or say that you can live without me
Didn't we make it nearly
For everything that I hold dearly
How many ways can I say plainly, we can
Before it wore on us thinly
To each and every degree
You've got me in agony

This pressing feeling
it's gotta implode, oh
we fight the feeling
but we can't ignore
who can show us how
when what we want is right now

Don't give it up
I heal and hide
Forgive this hurt of mine
We all have the scars
To show

Remote controlling
this total ache, oh
internally
it wants to destroy
who can show us what
will become of us

Don't give it up
I heal and hide
Forgive this hurt of mine
We all have the scars
To show

Don't give it up now
just live it up
Don't give it up
and mess it up

Know what your doing
what you came here for
you want to take them
hold them down
who can show us love
that holds no doubt

Don't give it up (don't you wanna)
I heal and hide
Forgive this hurt of mine
We all have the scars
To show

Full mug my friends certainly familiar
Ah, hear that glitch say search the orbs

Tree-ann said it his seize the circus
Ram's wool that cause way a cricus

Full mug my friends certainly familiar
Warmy funny Anna say say maluska

Sworn under an oath to war
Sworn under an oath to war

Phwoar so spirit smother me in
Ah, hear that glitch fought and ought

Fuel full fat her glass of milk
Warm sitting here, sitting in bed

Sworn under an oath to war
Sworn under an oath to war
Sworn under an oath to war

Well I found myself in a world of pain
And I thought I'd try to get away
So I went online and booked a trip
I thought I was due a holiday

So I sat right down and wrote to you
Oh dear John those things you do
So I packed my stuff and cleared the room
Off I go singing a different tune

So I'm in the cab, I'm running late
I have no hope within these city gates
I think of things I should have done
Countless things I should have brung

Oh no, what can I do
The passport check, I'm already through
I've got a feeling in my gut
That I'm in a short queue for a lot of bad luck

I should have heeded
My father saying
That things will go wrong
If you try to run before you crawl

Well as I found things can get worse
And I'm starting to think I may be cursed
While the kid behind, he's kicking me
Posessed by demons on TV

Oh no, what can I do
My passport's gone, my wallet too
I've eaten fish and I'm feeling sick
I can only hope I'll be landing quick

Well first I knew we were over the creek
And I got so bad I couldn't speak
I was all heated up from Mexico
But I was landing now, down in Moscow

Oh no, this just won't do
I wanted heat and it's minus two
I'm all chilled up and I'm feeling mad
I couldn't believe it could get this bad

I should have heeded
My father saying
That things will go wrong
If you rush too fast you will fall

Well I'd lost my bags and all I had
Was duty free and a fashion mag
With no cash and no Visa too
I had a lot of explaining to do

Well, they said, this just won't do
This is counterfit and so are you
Well I found myself without my shoes
In the cold jail cell and I've got the blues

I should have heeded
My father saying
'Cause things did go wrong
When I tried to run, and face it head on

Du, du-du...

Underneath my actions
Was hateful intent
Should I have showed that I could be fair
I stood there unrepentant
And remain
Showing those signs of wanting to care

Time on this is broken
To give it more we'll be drifting
But to win

Don't lose control of this misery
Why pacify just punish me
Seperate from this pain up on me
Don't let me take this liberty
I lack the will to make it right
I only know how to start a fight
Giving in to my every need
Only breathe the selfish me

Underneath you're defeated
And dismayed
Using my tone to hide your escape
You stood there unresentful
But wanting to bare
All the lines I used to a lie

Time on this is broken
To give it more we'll be drifting
But to win

Don't lose control of this misery
Why pacify just punish me
Seperate from this pain up on me
Don't let me take this liberty
I lack the will to make it right
I only know how to start a fight
Giving in to my every need
Only breathe the selfish me

Don't lose control of this misery
Why pacify just punish me
Seperate from this pain up on me
Don't let me take this liberty
I lack the will to make it right
I only know how to start a fight
Giving in to my every need
Only breathe the selfish me

Don't lose control of this misery
Why pacify just punish me
Seperate from this pain up on me
Don't let me take this liberty
I lack the will to make it right
I only know how to start a fight
Giving in to my every need
Only breathe the selfish me

Is this a question of time
Is this a question of space
I've been out of my mind
I'm coming up for air
To work it out

If you throw me a line
Then I'll try to replace
All the things I can't find
'Cause I'm coming up for air
To let it out

Defection from the state I'm in
Reflections of a world within

Back with myself again
All my fears
Just like a ball and chain
And I know
Although I am alone
I'm at home
Here with my selfish pain

It's not a question of faith
It's not a question of hope
I'm getting out of this place
I'm coming up for air
To work it out

Defection from the state I'm in
Reflections of a world within

I'm feeling colder now
A little bolder now
Pure as my sins allow
Broke every promise and proud

lost
is where she feels at ease
it's written in a code
she can't read
it haunts her

and how
how can there be hope
when she lives it out in fear
on the edge
she's wanting

it drove
drove her to despair
not knowing
which way
to turn

a mental barrier
people comfort her
through the wasteland
deep within her mind
can she break it out
while a trap unfolds

she prays
falls down on her knees
she writes them full of hope
believes in them
and they help her

they drove
drove her to the edge
not knowing
which way
to turn

a mental barrier
people comfort her
through the wasteland
deep within her mind
can she break it out
while a trap unfolds

they drove
drove her to the despair
not knowing
which way
to turn

a mental barrier
people comfort her
through the wasteland
deep within her mind
can she break it out
while a trap unfolds

she will fight it out
till her streanght gives out
should she flow
lika a goldfish in a bowl
she doesn't see it out
her solitary world

Help me out here, cos I'm strung out
I can't go back there, or I'll burn out
Medic! Medevac me up
I've credit for you to blow out the dark

I hold out my hand, for you to help me down
Concoct me up good, I wish sombody would
I'm pacing ahead, can't shut down my hand
Like a ship in the night, like I'm losing the fight

Help me out here, cos I'm strung out
I can't go back there, or I'll burn out
Medic! Medevac me up
I've credit for you to blow out the dark

If only you could, wrap me up
After all that I've said, I wish somebody cared
If only you could, fix me up
Cos like a ship in the night, I'm losing the fight

Help me out here, cos I'm strung out
I can't go back there, or I'll burn out
Medic! Medevac me up
I've credit for you to blow out the dark

If only you would, wrap me up
Cos like a ship in the night, I'm losing the fight

Help me out here, cos I'm strung out
I can't go back there, or I'll burn out
Medic! Medevac me up
I've credit for you to blow out the dark

And all I know that when I'm twisted
One and two can mean the same thing
And if this stone has ever lifted
Then God knows I would have gone the distance
And by the hands I would have taken you
But due to circumstances
Get this image but I can't exist
Without knowing what this is

Chorus:
Can you find the words to say
That I hate you is not an easy thing to say
Can you admit that each mistake you ever made
Is just another twist of fate

I'm never told that my difference
Will pay off in every instance
And with all this double meaning
I have doubt in my resistance
Only fame, attempts at change
Seem apart of our existence
Tell me how I'm supposed to keep you
With all I've witnessed

Repeat Chorus x2

Bridge:

What have I heard
That's got me reaching
For every turn there's a turning point
From this eternal battle
And all of this hassle
What have I learned

Repeat Chorus x2

So wake up hope,
It's dark and lonesome,
I can hardly, hardly get open my eyes,
It ain't lonely, I'm holy,
So he comes home, she's hating him some,
He can hardly, hardly stand up in his home,
Oh the aching, now now

In a stream of purest thought,
Nothing's lost that can be caught,
It's tender to behold,
As the past melts away,
I'll shore up holes as they give way,
Halcyon days of pages old

Them kneecap words, they're crushing him down,
It gets harder and harder to get over them now,
He can fight, it ain't over,
So was he wrong and hoping it right,
He can hardly, hardly blame him so
Oh the hurting, now now

In a stream of purest thought,
Nothing's lost that can be caught,
It's tender to behold,
As the past melts away,
I'll shore up holes as they give way,
Halcyon days of pages old

In a stream of purest thought,
Nothing's lost that can be caught,
It's tender to behold,
As the past melts away,
I'll shore up holes as they give way,
Halcyon days of pages old

It's tender to behold, ooh..
Tender (to be...) to behold

In a stream of purest thought,
Nothing's lost that can be caught,
It's tender to behold,
As the past melts away,
I'll shore up holes as they give way,
Halcyon days of pages old

In a stream of purest thought,
Nothing's lost that can be caught,
It's tender to behold,
As the past melts away,
I'll shore up holes as they give way,
Halcyon days of pages old

I wish I could...

Oooh...
It's tender to behold,
It's tender to behold
