Sons And Daughters

One year in five we'll stay alive it's a reason to behold
When it's just another fear to fry within this sacred fold

I am innocent

The sweat pours in like an ancient grin and laughs like a suffering one
It's colder now as my mouth runs out
How many times are we taken over?

I am innocent

There's one of us in the middle and there's two now on the end
Do you have the guts to falsify as you stand up on the ledge?

You are innocent

Sentencing can't save me and I shuffle to the night
The curtains closed
My substance old

I am innocent

It only took a glance
Of fortune or guess
A little drumming boy
Was beating in my chest

CHORUS
La La La

Is this a competition?
I'm definitely winning
Because two by two
They came through
And one in everyone
Fits a million

Chorus

You keep on holding back
Can't break it to yourself
That your life is nothing
But the fear's making sense
The fear's making sense
Chorus

to moonn6pence from shootingstar(papayeverte)


There is nothing left to prove
We'll stand on our heads
And shake out the news
Silently we go down
Never hand in hand
It's my design

And when words are failing
I'm useless yet I continue in
What has passed
Can never end
I close my door to everyone

CHORUS
From start to end
We'll start again

Forever now
I've been allowed
To be the last voice in the cold background
It's one step over
One lesson learned
And you hold in your hand
My design

(Chorus to end)

to moon6pence from shootingstar(papayeverte)



With the same eyes as me
The same fearing frame
We can try and disguise
Compromise rights
And I know what you're thinking
We wear the same dress
The same colours right
Is this what suits our weakened pride?
How do I know cos you're my blood

With the kinks and wires like me
The same fearing frame
We can run and hide
See the signs
Call to no-one
Taste with the same tongue
Swelling up inside
We can speak and re-sign
What's yours is mine
Blood

She was merged she was thin
The case was wide open
I see a heart on her shoulder
With his first name written

CHORUS
And what do lately
Consider to be yourself?
With your outsize hands
Your molten breath

October is the month
We'll pray for the summer
When trees are branching
A long distant murmur

CHORUS

So keep writing her name
So it's setting in stone
You'll live in the shadow
Of these broken bones

I fought them all
It never ends
I keep tight and
My wonder is less
Oh Oh why
I'm questioning
I'll never ask
So you can sleep in
Your perfect address
Oh Oh why
You can look inside
This calling curse
The lines are drawn
This is getting worse
Oh Oh why
Now I can tell
Your looking now
One comes one comes
To find us out
Oh Oh why

Well you can love this feeling and never feel alive
In a hopeless silence that falls between our eyes
It's not just tonight
It's not just tonight
When we sat and waited for words we can't deny

Go
Gone

And can you be clear to what you adhere to?
Find a false witness in somebody near you
One of us is right
None of this is right
I'll cut you out of every photograph within an inch of your life

Go
Gone

You chained me down by these arms of affection
I tried to escape and I'm trying to follow some direction
See the end in sight
See the end in sight
Well I've crossed
I've walked
I'm stepping over
But nothing left is mine

Go
Gone

She said it's all you'll need to be disheartened
Go over the words
Repeat
We'll get it started

You made the first move
When I was near you
We turned wrong to right

I'd heard people say he was a good man in his day
All I can say
All I concede
The smile disappeared into his straight face

You made the first move
When I was near you
We turned wrong to right

And now that I can hear
It all has past
I thank myself for seeing it out
The next will last

You made the first move
When I was near you
We turned wrong to right

Listen

On a blue antique night
In early October
His wavy brown hair
Stuck wet to his shoulder
And it's click, click, click
Go the heels of his feet
Listen
Da-da-da-da-da-da, da-da-dum
Listen
Da-da-da-da-da-da, da-da-dum

How long has it been since the boyfriend has visited?
The milk's in a pile by the door
While her series is playing on terrestrial TV
The neighbors, they don't even know
And its click, click, click
Go the heels of his feet
Listen
Da-da-da-da-da-da, da-da-dum
Listen
Da-da-da-da-da-da, da-da-dum

Oh
Did you hang her out, then hang her out, then hang her out to dry?
Did you hang her out, then hang her out, then hang her out to dry?
Did you hang her out, then hang her out, then hang her out to dry?
Did you hang her out, then hang her out, then hang her out to dry?

The meal that she was going to eat for her dinner
Is left on a plate by the stove
While there's unopened bills and letters and junk mail
All strewn on the mat by the door
And it's click, click, click
Go the heels of his feet
Listen
Da-da-da-da-da-da, da-da-dum
Listen
Da-da-da-da-da-da, da-da-dum

Oh
Did you hang her out, then hang her out, then hang her out to dry?
Did you hang her out, then hang her out, then hang her out to dry?
Did you hang her out, then hang her out, then hang her out to dry?
Did you hang her out, then hang her out, then hang her out to dry?

How long has it been since the boyfriend has visited?
The papers are filling the close
While she's face-down on porcelain
An inchful of bathwater
The neighbors, they don't even know or care
And it's drip, drip, drip
Goes the tap on her ankles
Da-da-da-da-da-da, da-da-dum
Listen
Da-da-da-da-da-da, da-da-dum

Did you hang her out, then hang her out, then hang her out to dry?

Where did you come from?
What have we started?
Maybe I call you a liar
Held in command
Taken by hand
Mistaking the words on the wire

Take me down again
Pull me down again
Take me down and then a a a a a

Don't go and ask your sick little questions
I can't find the cure for desire
If this continues
I'm saving myself
By putting my hands in the fire

Take me down again
Pull me down again
Take me down and then a a a a a

What's natural and real
Like monsters we
Like banshees
That's what we've become
There's half a discussion and then we ask
What kind of love we have

You know where the door is
Can't give you myself
Compassions just a word in a dictionary on your shelf
Monogamy to you it seems is just black and blue
All the best psychotic lovers ain't got nothing on you

Take me down again
Pull me down again
Take me down and then a a a a a

What's natural and real
Like monsters we
Like banshees
That's what we've become
There's half a discussion and then we ask
What kind of love we have

Too much you need
Too much you need
He's a genuine boy with a guilty smile

Hands to pull you forward faster
You and your game is not the answer
Not on your own

Too much you need
Too much you need
He's a genuine boy with a guilty smile

Had to fool you're forward faster
You're smashing heads and breaking ladders
All on your own

Your further on
But you can taste the last girl
She's the servant to the master
Oh now your on your own

Too much you need
Too much you need
He's a genuine boy with a guilty smile

Hands to pull you forward faster
You and your game is not the answer
Not on your own

Outrun yourself to find the next
You'll take what's coming
Catch your own death
All on your own

Too much you need
Too much is greed
He's a genuine boy with a guilty smile

Taking your time until they swallowed every line
Castrating everyone
Now there's bodies on the run
We're waiting we're waiting
You're burying my good name
Keep burying my name

Tight lips have cracked
Mouthing behind their backs
The forks down the throat of them all til we choked
We're waiting we're waiting
You're burying my good name
Keep burying my name

And now we're all sworn in by the shadows whisperings
Markings on the door
Then we drop onto the floor
We're waiting we're waiting
You're burying my good name
Keep burying my name

Dance me in
Show me the first part
I'll pay close detail
To every note in every chart

An escaped voice speaks from the corner of the room
It's avoiding the plans
Sneaking past the narrow truth
Everyone else follows through

You speak for all men
The hopeless telling of sorries cling to your lungs
In the print of tomorrow what reminds me of them does not remind me of yours
Remind me of the young

Just dance me in
Just dance me in
Just dance me in
Dance me in
Dance me in

You speak for all men
The hopeless telling of sorries cling to your lungs
In the print of tomorrow what reminds me of them does not remind me of yours
Remind me of the young

Just dance me in
Just dance me in
Just dance me in
Dance me in
Dance me in

Lose on both sides until there are two
I'm sat at the last table
My talk wearing thin
I'll wait for answers
I'll wait for answers
Just dance me in
Dance me in

Just dance me in
Just dance me in
Just dance me in
Dance me in
Dance me in

Phone phone the red receiver at the end of the bed it keeps getting clearer
Rings run running around me
Untying the ribbons for the good of the family
And your dear friends gathered together
You were looking for trouble now your losing your temper

Cold feet in London
Useless confetti
No groom
No first kiss
No diamonds for the girl

Don't look in the side of the wardrobe
The white dress hangs tall as a tightrope
Clothes piled high in a suitcase
Better get moving fast for it's too late
And you dear friends gathered in darkness
Formed a search and followed their partners

Cold feet in London
Useless confetti
No groom
No first kiss
No diamonds for the girl

So phone phone the red receiver at the end of the bed but no one will be here

Hit me hit me hit me I'm already on the ground
You're asleep in the next room and I'm banging to be found
I cannot feel my body and I'm floating then I'm drowned
And nothing I have taken keeps it down

It's a ride

Help me help me help me it's a bitter hit to take
When I'm shaking once again this is too long to be awake
With the ignorance of new year
You could save me for your sake
Because I'm falling through the plans that we made

It's a ride

My medicine

Happy happy happy you can lie behind the eyes
Without telling those around you that you've built your own disguise
Now time can only end it when the remedy's not found
Just wrap it up and never take it out

It's alright

Said you were leaving on the goodbye service
You'd take me with you
I think we earned it
(Too late)
No stop signs
(Too late)
No red lights

You left me stationed on the chair by the phone
No ticket out or a thread of hope
(Too late)
At the traffic lights
(Too late)
For this trust of mine

There's no sadder sight to see
Trains in the distance as you leave
There's no sadder sight to see
Say goodbye to 5.14

Said that you'd call
Scream when you're leaving
At least I'm hurting so you sparked some feeling
(Too late)
At the traffic lights
(Too late)
Should have seen the signs

Sometimes I see you
By your bedroom window
Hallucination
A single shadow
(Too late)
No stop signs
(Too late!)
For a heart like mine
