Sometimes I think so much of death, it starts to hurt my side
Oh when I was a little kid I'd found a way to make the darkness subside
I had this awesome pair of shoes with blue flashing lights on the sole
Oh How I wish I had them now them now, I'd keep them safe for when I die, when I'm old
They'd help me see in the dark where we all go.
Sometimes I think so much of life it starts to pass me by
Oh how I miss those days when I was a kid
when no one would laugh when I cried
Oh I wish I had an awesome pair of shoes with blue flashing lights on the sole
They'd help me find a thousand friends to keep me company when I die when I'm old
To help me see in the dark, where we all go

She asked me if I'd ever had sex in my car
I bit my lip so hard I tasted blood
in our favourite shitty nightclub she asked me if I'd ever been in love
I said no, but meant yeah!
She said "Don't love me for what I like, love me for what I am"
In our favourite shitty nightclub I watched her talk teary eyed to Sam
Drunkenly I said "What are you doing?"
Drunkenly I said "What the fuck are you doing?"
and he said;
"That girl will always have a place in my heart as well as everybody else's,
so go ahead take the part before somebody else does!"

He said "this house is fucking freezing"
She said "let's drown ourselves in water"
He found all his darkest secrets late at night when he was inside her
and everybody says it's nothing
but everybody knows it's if everything
Walking over rose tinted eggshells they shatter
"Life moves pretty fast, if you don't slow down you might miss it"
So throw your line out to cast,
"oh hey memory!"
"oh hi, What is it?"
She said "outside it's fucking freezing. go drown yourself in snowy blankets"
He found all his darkest secrets in lights, out without her
He used to think it was nothing but now he's pretty sure it's everything
Walking over tinted eggshells, they're beautiful

Hunting for Energy

It's been so long since we stayed out- until the sky turned blue
and right now I Just wish I'd spent those mornings after with you
Just like we do now
It's been so long since we all woke up together, all for one and one for all
and It's been so long, since along Byres Road we'd crawl
Hunting for energy, hunting for energy
And I think that we should go back
I hope that we can crawl back
I dont think we should ever grow old.
The wolf-pack howls so quiet now Glasgow can barley hear
and it's been so long since we were all together my dear
and I miss those nights they'd end in crawls along the Sauchiehall

I redesigned your body and trapped you In my heart
I wrote a thousand love songs
but you tore them all apart
with mighty words than mean twice as much as I could ever say
Looking for a reason, a skill- I think we both found it today
And you?
You're everything to me.
And you?
You're all I see.
You chained me to a radiator deep within your soul
but I severed the tie, I broke the pipes
That's why you're always so fucking cold
But I came back with a vengeance
cause my heart says this is what you need
I came back crawling through the city streets
and said "You mean everything to me"
Yes you!
You're everything to me.
And you?
You're all I see.

"Go ahead, break my fucking neck if you think it'll make you feel better
but I know it won't, I know it wont"
and she said
"Go ahead break my wrist, we don't have to kiss, you don't have to hold my hand, just stay- It;ll make me feel better"
Say anything you want to
Just let me deal with this myself
You always said he was a coward be brave put me back up on the shelf
He said
"Burn it all, get it to fuck. I'm sure it'll make me feel better, I'm sure it will"
and he said
"Why am I still here, In your head, in your bed, I'm not dead, I'm just here to make you feel better"
"At least I've got you for company"

I can't feel my toes, can't feel my toes
I want to know what you'll look like when you grow old
I dont want waves of static to destroy our tiny town
I don't want waves of static to take you away from me
Push the circle to your chest
It's moving away, it's moving away
Of all the people you knew me the best
So don't push him away
Now I want to go, I want to go
Want to see you in another landscape all alone
Before waves of static destroy their beauty and elegance
Before waves of static take you away from me

Talking about St Peter but listening to John and Paul
Saying it's funny how they set you up just to watch you fall
and I don't know much about hearts
But I'm pretty sure they can't break
I'm probably not the man to speak to though
I've made a lot of mistakes
and I could write a million love songs about some girl with an awkward name
But writing songs about you is what I do best
I'm sorry if they all sound the same
Hey Look! There's another one

What's that saying again?
"Love is pain"
but no one wants to take part in her strange, twisted games, perverted shame
But watch her quiver, watch her smile, watch her rosey cheeks turn red
when she gets her way
It might not be love to you, but it is to her
Kelly throw your fists in the air! You're a champion
Tell him how to put it right there!
Only fools fall in love but she want's it all, not half of it.
She want's it all.
She wakes everyday, oh her lifes the same
Just like us she wants to find true love
Someone to take care of her and her fun fun games
She wants to quiver, wants to smile, wants her rosy cheeks to turn red
wants to get her way. It might not be love to you but it is to her.

You taste like strawberry laces and vodka
and that wine you bought for close to nothing
there's bourbon deep inside my tiny system
an a rushing hurt inside my head now
and there's lights, there's lights there's not really darkness
There's girls, there's girls with temporary blindness
They dont care who they go home with tonight.
Lets kiss, lets kiss it don't mean nothing
tears, there's tears
It's like there's too much love inside of him
To him this means everything

If I read about Paris, I wont read about dying
and If I talk about Loo, I won't talk about you
and there's bourbon in my belly
and a hurting in my head
My friend says he doesn't wanna live
I said; I'd rather be dead
And this is what it sounds like in my head
when I'm alone
and this is what feels like to be dead to be alone
And if I sing songs about you, I can make it through the day
If I lose my voice I'll have to find another way
I'd probably put bourbon in my belly
Just to get you out of my head
drink until you came back to me then crawl into our bed...

Is that a Blink-182 tattoo on his arm?
Do you really think that haircut makes up
for your total lack of manners and charm?
Do you really think he's the one for you?
The way you say his name makes me feel so blue.
But he's everywhere we go, he's everywhere we go!
Legohead. Did you hear me when I said?
So you've charmed a girl over here, over here?
Well it's a two way street, better step it up a gear
Cause he's everywhere we go, he's everywhere go
Do you really think he's the one for you?
The way you say look his way, makes me feel so blue.
She's everywhere I go, she's everywhere I go!
But things have a way of working out....

You're never more in love than at the end of the night
When we can't see out my window
I just cower above these shark invested waters
Like Jaws bit a bit more fun
If this is all you ask of me
I'll certainly oblige
I hope there's nothing after me
Cause in this heart there's more love to find.
You'll never see me happier than at the start of the night
when I see you through the bus window
You always sit up top, far from these shark infested waters
We sleep tight or we dance all night.

My favourite book in the world's about baggage
and I don't think I'll ever let it go
and when we think of all the notches in our bed post
It's like a title fight and I'm losing blow by blow
and I know that right now you don't know what you want
but I hope you still want me, and I'll help you through the best I can
But this life wasn't supposed to be easy.
But it's so easy, when I'm with you
My favourite place in the worlds here in your arms
and I hope that you never let me go
and I know I've shed childish tears in the dark
and the thought it makes me feel so low
and I'll I know is that I want you right now
and I hope to fuck I can make you see
I'll love you to the end of the earth,
But getting there isn't going to be easy
But it's all easy when I'm with you
She sung "I've liked you for a thousand years"
but I've liked you longer.
It's so easy.

Somewhere in my Dreams
04:09

My love is like a monster I know it all too well
It spits out love songs like a machine
and It's trapped the perfect girl in it's silly monster heart
but it winces at the thought of her.
Her and her strange dreams.
I don't know what they mean.
It started deep inside my head, somewhere in my dreams
My head is like a monster, but it never tends to swell
It listens to love songs in it's dreams
Cause Its always dreaming of that perfect girl
Heart beating 100mph in a perfect scene, but still.
