A CALL TO ARMS
(Greaves / Rennie)
All the losers and the failures tonight
Take up arms it’s time to fight
Heads buried deep in the sand
Now it’s time to take a stand
All your life, you’ve missed out
Now I wanna hear you shout
(Chorus)
I’m calling from the top of my voice
It’s time to make a choice
This is not a false alarm
This is a call to arms
So now we’re standing on the front line
You have your reasons and I have mine
A life to lose, a life to save
Stand your ground boy, just be brave
Let the glory fill your mind
Leave your fears behind
(Repeat chorus)
Oooh, who do you think you are?
Oooh, who do you think you are?
Oooh, who do you think you are?
This is my place, you’re in my space
Get out of my face
Sick of being cut to size
So get your eyes on the prize
(Chorus)
COUNTED OUT
(Greaves / Rennie)
I’m oppressed by irrational fears
I can’t move or speak
I can’t think in this atmosphere
So helpless and so weak
(Chorus)
I can feel it drawing near
And it cuts me like a knife
Leaves me frozen cold with fear
And begging for my life
Why does courage abandon me now?
Surely a friend in need
Seems I must be all lucked out
Left with a fear that I must feed
Claustrophobic and deranged
Paralysed and out of sorts
Fighting this feeling that’s so strange
It’s a war that must be fought
(Chorus)
Whisper be stubborn my friend
Get up when you fall down
Cos you’re not counted out
(Chorus)
HOW DOES IT FEEL?
(Greaves / Rennie)
The strangest feeling’s coming over me
Like I’m a prisoner who can’t break free
The walls are crashing like a tidal wave
And if you wanna come with me
Then just go down and be brave
Can’t say it won’t hurt a little
It’s time to leave so be on your way
(Chorus)
How does it feel?
I’m an animal, a cannibal
It’s so unreal
How does it feel?
I could chew you, spit you out
Go right through you
How does it feel?
I’m an animal, a cannibal
It’s so unreal
How does it feel?
So know you know a little of my style
Maybe you would to stay a while
You’ll earn your keep if you don’t mind pain
I’m just a little sadistic
But all these things make me smile
And soon, you’ll learn to love
I will keep you as a slave my child
(Chorus)
And if you wanna come with me
Well just go down and be brave
Can’t say it won’t hurt a little
It’s time to leave so be on your way
(Chorus)
WHERE DO WE GO FROM HERE..?
(Greaves)
Another day, another cold shoulder
Why can’t we talk, instead of growing older?
I’ve tried so many times and ways
To show you how I feel
But now I don’t have anything left to give
I just want an end to this pain and this heartache
But oh, where do we go from here..?
Inside, in pieces, lies my broken heart
I think it’s time we made a brand new start
I’d rather be all on my own
Than feeling this way
And I can’t think of a reason to stay
I wish that we could talk it over
But oh, where do we go from here..?
I’ve got this aching in me
I think we both know what we need to do
Remember when we used to be as one?
Stay awake all night just waiting for the sun
I don’t know when things started to change
But I know they can’t stay the same
You told me to go to hell, here I am
I just want an end to this pain and this heartache
I wish that we could talk it over
But oh, where do we go from here..?
But oh, where do we go from here..?
But oh, where do we go from here..?
But oh, where do we go..?
SAME OLD SKY
(Greaves)
Carried away on a crest of a wave of emotion
I never thought I’d feel this way at all
What was once so far away has become so close
A timely reminder of how things should be
Who knows what the future holds for you or me?
Or if we’ll ever see each other again?
(Chorus)
Eat, sleep, laugh and cry
We all live under the same old sky
Breathe, drink, live and die
We all live under the same old sky
Separated by nothing more than a timezone
The world’s getting smaller every day
I only have to close my eyes and I’m right there
Suddenly, we aint so far away
Who said the story had to end, my learned
I say, it’s only just begun
(Chorus)
Who knows what the future holds?
I guess we’ll see
I’m sure we’re gonna see each other again
(Chorus)
IRRELEVANT NIGHTMARES
(Greaves / Rennie)
Into the arms of Morpheus I fall
A grain of sand in the vastest desert
This hourglass has no relevance to me
Am I me in this lucid state I feel
Or do I have a chance to be another?
Experience in darkest clarity
And if I try to examine closely
Behind the veil that hides my being
Will I embrace what it is I see?
I’ve had a taste of a total stranger
And the sense is so unfamiliar
Points of view, something new to see
Am I scared of realising
All the truths that I have hidden?
Is it all to ugly to be revealed
Why do I feel so vacant?
Express this timeless moment
Everything is so shaken
I’m slipping with the current
Am I really the only one?
To tread these footsteps into the mind of a fool
Can I walk on through
Turn the corner to the truth?
I’m so tired of being unsure
And I’m unsure of who I am
Should it matter, if I like what I see?
I guess it’s time to just stop guessing
I’m ready to get my hands dirty
What’s round the corner?
Who will come with me?
After all is said and done
I can’t accept the thing that I’ve become
Should I be left alone to burn in hell?
Erased from memory as well
How can I ever show my face
While I wear this mask of disgrace?
I have to grin and bear this burden cross
And fathom order out of chaos
I lay in my bed, no money to spend
Gone in the head, I’ve gone round the bend
Without you here, my life’s a room spare
I need you here but what do you care?
Nothing is sacred, all is permitted
Nothing is static, fixed or fitted
I walk through the hallways of my being
I fight the darkness, can’t see or be seen
The only permanence is change
Designs forever rearranged
Without you here, I’m in despair
I want you near, you never cared
Dark rivers of the heart, sailing, sailing on
Dark rivers of the heart, the beating and the flow
Sleepwalking in the dark, fleeting shadows
No-one follows
And it’s taking my soul away
Taking my soul away
Dark rivers of the heart, feelings drain away from me
Dark rivers of the heart, strewn by the winds but connected by sins
Sleepwalking in the dark, getting further and further apart
And no-one follows, no-one follows
And it’s taking my soul away
No-one follows
Taking my soul away
(No-one follows, no-one follows)
Taking my soul away
Taking my soul away.....
THE SCIENCE OF LOSING CONTROL
(Greaves / Rennie)
My heart won’t stop, it’s beating fast
Like a broken clock
My magma blood through autobahn veins
Hairs stand on end
Up and down the back of my neck
Here comes the rush it’s starting again
(Chorus)
So you just gotta let it go
This is the science of losing control
It’s just something that I need you to know
I feel my neurons snapping
They fizzle and pop
Electrified from bottom to top
Going up a gear
As I ride through the fear
Screaming round the bend
It’s starting over again
(Chorus)
It’s so easy come on and release me
We can lose control together
And learn to crash and burn
Come on and please me, we can lose control together
And learn to crash and burn
(Chorus)
