You're like a knife in my side Like a punctured lung Seems you take my breath away Seems you've taken it for good And there's nothing left that I can do Of that you made damn sure Seems I'll never let you go You can count on me that it's Too late to apologise I've seen you turn your face away from me Way too many times Too late to try set things right Seems I've walked this goddamn road before Way too many times I said I'd never let you go But you didn't look afraid I've been playing this for keeps Now I've played my life away Now I'm just an empty shell And I must apologise Seems I've bet your life away You can count on me that it's I've looked into the past To see where it went wrong And I've tried to work this out But I've been like this all along And I've looked for an escape route But there are none to be found I've hung myself up high and dry And left myself to die

I've tried cocaine addiction but it just made my nose bleed I've tried taking LSD but I couldn't feel my feet I've tried looking at the world through the bottom of a bottle But I tripped and fell and got some glass stuck under my eyelids And it all comes back to the way you make me feel Like I'm lonely and exploding from the messed up things you do to me And it comes full circle 'cause I'm sure you miss me too But I'll never know if you do cause I haven't heard from you in so long I tried to move on without you but I left myself behind I tried so hard to forget you but it seems that my mind Has gone and run on ahead and got into an awful mess Now I'm stuck with the pieces and I'll never get to rest

Your World 02:48
I'll stay away for another day For another day I'll stay away In another time, in another place In another way I recall My way out of here I just can't stand to face your world It gave me all the things that I've burned Kept my lock and key for five years Guess it shows we never learn Well that's enough for me Hope it's enough for you too I might just say, I couldn't say What's on my mind for another day In another time, in another place From another girl I can't find My way out of here I just can't stand to be your world It gave me all the things that I've burned Kept my lock and key for five years Guess it shows we never learn Well that's enough for me Hope it's enough for you

Inside my head there's thoughts spinning round and around Try to deal with them all before they fall to the ground Way too tired, I've been awake for days Never gonna wake up again I'm so damn tired, just so dog tired Never gonna wake up again Outside my head the world carries on without me I'm not asking it to stop but slowing down's alright by me Way too tired, my head's in too much pain Never gonna wake up again

Daydreamer 03:43
They say that dreams come true Ever since the day that I was left by you I was stuck feeling down By the thoughts that you were no longer around Daydreamer You take my heart to play Daydreamer I think about you day by day by day But now the tables turn The story of a lesson that I had never learned Who knows the right things to say When love and lust push each other far far away
6.
When did growing up become so goddamn hard to do When did the time I save run out There's not enough hours in my day To keep up with the bills I have to pay Seems all my money ran away They say it's easy come They say it's easy go Real words of comfort to me there I'll take my creature comforts home And drink to them all alone And pray to anyone out there My university degree has not been that much help to me It just buried me financially I've got holes in all my jeans Hard work that ripped them at the seams And I can't afford to complain

Rust 03:42
Run where no-one can find you It's not like you had a choice They forced your hand Hazed you out It always ends the same Is anybody looking for you They forced you out Hazed your eyes Rust leaks out from his ears To the pavement, washed by tears Bones like dust, of no use Can't stand up, it's no use A dead and dying town All the people moved away Churning out its insides Shrinking by the day Lining up like vultures To pick the carcass clean Forget getting out What happened to the English dream

Drunken Duncan. Simple pop-punk tunes with a bit of an old-school sound. If we can’t play it drunk, we’re probably not playing it.
