I kissed her and all the blood went rushing to my lips
And all the thoughts went running to my brain.
Praise be, praise be that I knew our hips would part
But we'd have each others' hearts
And she made a man of me.

But these days I've gotten used to my bed too big for me.

Well I took abuse as a poor excuse in some social circles
Only to find what a waste of time it was to be nervous
And when I see you I'm on fire from the words I finally heard
Not taken, just taking my time.

Claire, if you don't come home tonight
I will take it as red that t

Recently I've realised as I have stood atop my stage
Looking at the rows of faces, I think I'm filled with twisted rage
It's taken me 'till 9pm one rainy saturday in june to realize
That this is no way near where I thought I could be it's true.

This is the way I feel now, and i

So he knows something you don't,
Five little secrets whispered
Oh, and you had something to say
But the people were our peasants
So you walked away from this avalanche
And left them for dead.
They were our messengers and this is what they said:
"I don't think you're r

All of a sudden I am lost without a care
From books I've read, for hanging heads
For hearts in mouths and a sense of dread
And you might think it's gritty girl
But it does not compare to all I know,
The open road, the sights and sounds
When I'm far from home.

And al

She walked out into the city streets
He watched her slide from view
As the knot in his stomach began to tell his head
What his heart already knew

She'd been late home every night from work
for the past month maybe two
And she looked so alive yeah and she hardly ever fro

In the distance there's the changing of the night
Wrapped in blanket cloud to tear your wrongs from rights
This is life traversed more than day by day and you don't have to be a looker just to see you've lost your way
What do you say?
In the morning he will realise what we've don

Well I heard you must have missed her
'Cause I ran into your sister and she told me that things hadn't gone to plan,
That you were moving out at dawn for the place where you were born
And returning here some shadow of a man.

She said it's harder now to take control,
Some un

Is it all that you want?

I wish I could do that again but I already know,
That the power of christ is inside her
Is too strong for me to overthrow.
And I wasn't talking about whoopi goldberg
When I said I would see your ghost.
And I will follow you now to your grave som

I forced myself to open my eyes
But if this hangover is killing me
I died at least three times during the night
And I dribbled on myself again
So anyone who told me I should shut my mouth
Turned out to be alright in the end

And I have to leave this place by god it's kil

He met her eyes at a party
Now I'll meet his face with my fist
Until all that surrounds me
Is smothered and covered in kisses
That heal all the hurt that she feels
And which haunts her down roads
On the streetlights that hum
On the nights when no one is there to guide

Well there are incidents and accidents that you could never save
If you don't act your shoe size, act your age.
Well I play until my fingers hurt and grit my teeth through every word
Like I'm the only introvert who wants to seize the day.

And this is not the sound of a thousand

Listen while you read!
Well there's wrongs to re-write
Sorrows to drown
And I know that it's weird
But I drink her scent down

And I long to be held in her highest regard
With not so much a kiss more a meeting of lips
In the dark

And well she's got this boy who

I've got eyes in the back of my head, she said
Then she turned her back
But she didn't see the blow that I would land
And under crumpled legs, the fire in eyes snuffed out
Now we must return her body to the ground

And the words we said as we wrecked her bed
Were only po
