FORSAKEN

(Rennie)

 

Well here the nightmare ends

And yeah, I’m happy we can still be friends

So sorry I spat in your face

But my heart and mind were out of place

And now my hands are tied

 

But if I’m forced to think of it

I’m in a place I’ll never fit

I still want you but I don’t need you

Something I can still admit

Why should it be denied?

 

If now it all ends well

And we make it through our hell

With time to create

With paths for our separate ways

Why should be denied?

 

Cos if I’m forced to think of it

I’m in a place I’ll never fit

I still want you but I don’t need you

Something I can still admit

But now my hands are ties

Why should I be denied?

 

(Chorus)

I’ve been forsaken

All this time mistaken

I’ve been forsaken

All this time mistaken

 

And one day if we have the chance

To decide on our deliverance

Without quarrel, pain or sorrow

Take my hand and I’ll lead the dance

Why should I be denied?

 

Cos if I’m forced to think of it

I’m in a place I’ll never fit

I still want you but I don’t need you

Something I can still admit

Why should it be denied?
Cos now my hands are tied, they’re tied

 

(Chorus)

 

And one day if we have the chance

To decide on our deliverance

Without quarrel, pain or sorrow

Take my hand and I’ll lead the dance

But now my hands are tied

 

Cos when I’m force to think of it

I’m in a place I’ll never fit

I still want you but I don’t need you

Something I can still admit

But now my hands are tied
 

(Chorus)

HOMEBOUND

(Greaves / Rennie)

 

Six o’clock on a Friday morning

I’m wide awake while the world is still dawning

Thinking back, over good times and bad

While the good stay in my mind

I try to block out the sad
 

(Chorus)

You’re on the first train out of here

How can I cope, without you near?

Though the sun shines and the sky is still blue

So is my heart without you

You’re homebound

 

Here I sit with my last cigarette

Where did you go?

You found another love, I bet

I wander lonely, from street to street

What am I gonna do? How will I make ends meet?

 

(Chorus)

 

But always look on the bright side

Your life has always been a train ride

Round and round

And off the rails

Homebound

 

But what can you do?

Can you find it in your heart

To put things right?
Instead of tearing them apart

What can you do

To build the bridge between us

Homebound

CHROMOSOME
(Greaves / Rennie)

People say there’s something strange about me

Something they can’t put their finger on

Something missing in my DNA

Yeah OK, so I’m a little freaky

And I maybe got a funny walk

But that’s the way I’m mean to be

 

I’m stupid, you’re clever

I’m not like you, you’re better

But it’s not affecting me

 

(Chorus)

I can feel it in my bones

Creeping in my chromosome

Won’t everybody leave me alone?

I’m not bright

But I’m alright

 

So if you notice that I’m acting strangely

There’s no need for you to stand and stare

I’ve got a quarrel with my missing gene

I’m pretty sure I’ll manage

Pretty sure that I’ll be OK

You all don’t have to be so mean

 

I’m stupid, you’re clever

I’m not like you, you’re better

But it’s not affecting me

 

(Chorus)

 

I’m stupid, you’re clever

I’m not like you, you’re better

But it’s not affecting me

 

(Chorus)

THE RUSH
(Rennie)

 

I’ve got a rage and it only grows and grows

I’m afraid that this feeling never slows

I never let adrenaline go to waste

So you better make haste if you want a taste

 

(Chorus)

I can feel it building up inside

It’s like a rollercoaster ride

Cos the feel and the thrill are all I know

White knuckle, knees buckle let’s go!

Here comes the rush!

Here comes the rush!

 

Well if you wanna do it

I can get to it

Hold my hand and I’ll drag you through it

You got something to say? Get it out of the way

But you don’t get nothing unless you’re willing to pay

 

(Chorus)

 

So if you feel that my rage is much to real

Get out the kitchen, it’s no big deal

I never slow down for man, nor beast

I got an appetite and you’re my feast

 

(Chorus)

 

I’ve got a rage and it only grows and grows

I’m afraid that this feeling never slows

I never let adrenaline go to waste

So you better make haste if you want a taste

 

(Chorus)

STRUTTER

(Stanley / Simmons)

 

I know a thing or two about her

I know she’ll only make you cry

She’ll let you walk the streets beside her

But when she wants, she’ll pass you by

 

(Chorus)

Everybody says she’s looking good

And the lady knows it’s understood

Strutter!

 

She wears her satins like a lady

She gets her way just like a child

You take her home,

And she says “maybe, baby”

She takes you down, and drives you wild

 

(Chorus)

 

I know a thing or two about her

I know she’ll only make you cry

She’ll let you walk the streets beside her

But when she wants, she’ll pass you by

 

(Chorus)

INTO THE SHADOWS

(Greaves / Rennie)
 

You once told me I’m no hero

And I don’t have the strength I need

To hold this precious thing together

Don’t be deceived

 

I watch you walking away

You know I’ll catch you up again

So come on, delight me

Don’t be so frightened

 

In the darkest rivers of my heart

I never could admit defeat

I hold this precious thing together

It grew from the smallest seed

 

(Chorus)

I’m gonna stand up and be counted

Stand up for you

You’re counted too

I’m gonna get right up and shout it

I’ll do you proud

So shout it loud

 

It’s not easy, you know it’s true

I gave you all my time

But in the shadows there is hope

I kept it deep inside

 

(Chorus)

 

I watch you walking away

You know I’ll catch you up again

So come on, delight me

Don’t be so frightened

 

So if you desert me now

Why do I pretend that all is fine?

I watch you as you walk away

Through the dark I’ll shine

 

In the darkest rivers of my heart

I never could admit defeat

I keep this thing alive forever

It grew from the smallest seed

 

It’s not easy, you know it’s true

I gave you all my time

But in the shadows there is hope

I kept it deep inside

 

I never had the courage or conviction

I never had the solace in my heart

All my dreams have fallen by the wayside

Every plan I made has come apart

 

When I take my time to think it over

When I look at what I could have been

Try to keep it all in perspective

 

Even in the shadows

WHATEVER
(Greaves / Rennie)

 

I can see for miles, the rooftops of this town
If I could see your smile, you’d be smiling at me
Break away right now, running mental
Don’t bring me down

 

The summer lights, burning in my heart
Keeps my nights, oh so sleepless
Turn around, turn and face me
Just say you might 

 

CHORUS
Oh, you just say, whatever
That attitude’s not clever
It’s to you, that I’m tethered
Oh, whatever 

 

I can’t stand alone, I can hardly stand at all
It’s so hard on your own, unless you’re heartless
Well I could lend you mine, but you’ve had millions
Just see in time 

 

CHORUS 

 

Whenever I describe
How I feel inside
I get the same reply
Whatever does it take
How do I get my breaks? 

 

CHORUS
