Letra
Always stays the same, nothing ever changes, English summer rain seems to last for ages. Always stays the same, nothing ever changes, English summer rain seems to last for ages. I'm in the basement, you're in the sky, I'm in the basement baby, drop on by. I'm in the basement, you're in the sky, I'm in the basement baby, drop on by. Always stays the same, nothing ever changes, English summer rain seems to last for ages. Always stays the same, nothing ever changes, English summer rain seems to last for ages. I'm in the basement, you're in the sky, I'm in the basement baby, drop on by. I'm in the basement, you're in the sky, I'm in the basement baby, drop on by. Hold your breath and count to ten, And fall apart and start again, Hold your breath and count to ten, Start again, start again... Hold your breath and count your step, And fall apart and start again, Start again... [x13] Always stays the same, nothing ever changes, English summer rain seems to last for ages. Always stays the same, nothing ever changes, English summer rain seems to last for ages. Hold your breath and count to ten, And fall apart and start again, hold your breath and count to ten, Start again, start again... Hold your breath and count to ten, And fall apart and start again, Old your breath and count to ten, And start again, and start again, Start again... [x16] - This Picture3:34
Letra
I hold an image of the ashtray girl Of cigarette burns on my chest I wrote a poem that described her world And put our friendship to the test And late at night Whilst on all fours She used to watch me kiss the floor What's wrong with this picture? What's wrong with this picture? Farewell the ashtray girl Forbidden snowflake Beware this troubled world Watch out for earthquakes Goodbye to open sores To broken semaphore You know we miss her We miss her picture Sometimes it's fated (We) Disintegrated it For fear of growing old Sometimes it's fated (We) Assassinated it For fear of growing old Farewell the ashtray girl Angelic fruitcake Beware this troubled world Control your intake Goodbye to open sores Goodbye and furthermore You know we miss her We miss her picture Sometimes it's fated (We) Disintegrated it For fear of growing old Sometimes it's fated (We) Assassinated it For fear of growing old Hang on Though we try It's gone Hang on Though we try It's gone Sometimes it's fated (We) Disintegrated it For fear of growing old Sometimes it's fated (We) Assassinated it For fear of growing old Can't stop growing old... - Sleeping With Ghosts4:38
Letra
The sea's evaporating Though it comes as no surprise These clouds we're seeing They're explosions in the sky It seems it's written But we can't read between the line Hush It's okay Dry your eye Dry your eye Soulmate dry your eye Dry your eye Soulmate dry your eye Cause soulmates never die This one world vision Turns us in to compromise What good's religion When it's each other we despise Damn the government Damn their killing Damn their lies Hush It's okay Dry your eyes Dry your eyes Soulmate dry your eyes Dry your eyes Soulmate dry your eyes Cause soulmates never die Soulmates never die Never die Soulmates never die Never die... Soulmates never die Soulmates never die Soulmates never die Soulmates never die - The Bitter End3:10
Letra
Since we're feeling so anaesthetised In our comfort zone Reminds me of the second time That I followed you home We're running out of alibis From the second of May Reminds me of the summer time On this winter's day See you at the bitter end See you at the bitter end Every step we take that's synchronized Every broken bone Reminds me of the second time That I followed you home You shower me with lullabies As you're walking away Reminds me that it's killing time On this fateful day See you at the bitter end See you at the bitter end See you at the bitter end See you at the bitter end From the time we intercepted Feels a lot like suicide Slow and sad, grown inside us Arouse and see you're mine (See you at the bitter end) Love has seen your run-around Who wanna seek you now? I want a peace I'd whine out (See you at the bitter end) Love's reached his side Grab this gentleness inside Heard a cry Six feet down In six weeks' time The mess you left Will end See you at the bitter end - Something Rotten5:28
Letra
It seems we're here I Miss you something rotten The stinks are here It's guaranteed all's forgotten Down here Down here it's clear that your uncut Don't fear Don't fear, keep all this forgotten Face down Face down Face down, I miss you something rotten Face down Face down, this crown is broken rotten Down here, down here, I know its not, it's all forgotten Down here, down here, face down, I miss you something rotten Down here, down here, it stinks, it stinks of something rotten Don't fear, don't fear, keep all this forgotten There's something rotten down here There's something rotten down here There's something rotten down here There's something rotten down here... - Plasticine3:26
Letra
Beauty lies inside the eye of another youthful dream That doesn't sell it's soul for self-esteem That's not plasticine Beauty lies inside desire and every wayward heart redeemed That doesn't sell it's soul for self-esteem That's not plasticine Don't forget to be the way you are [x4] The only thing you can rely on is that you can't rely on anything Don't go and sell your soul for self-esteem Don't be plasticine Don't forget to be the way you are [x4] And don't forget to be the way you are [x4] The way you are... - Special Needs5:15
Letra
Remember me when you're the one who's silver screened Remember me when you're the one you always dreamed Remember me whenever noses start to bleed Remember me, special needs Just 19 and sucker's dream I guess I thought you had the flavour Just 19 and dream obscene with six months off for bad behaviour Remember me when you clinch your movie deal And think of me stuck in my chair that has four wheels Remember me through flash photography and screams Remember me, special dreams Just 19 this sucker's dream I guess I thought you had the flavour Just 19 and dream obscene with six months off for bad behaviour Just 19 and sucker's dream I guess I thought you had the flavour Just 19 and dream obscene with six months off for bad behaviour Remember me...

Letra
It's the disease of the age It's the disease that we crave Alone at the end of the rave We catch the last bus home Corporate America wakes Coffee republic and cakes We open the latch on the gate Of the hole that we call our home Protect me from what I want... Protect me protect me Maybe we're victims of fate Remember when we'd celebrate We'd drink and get high until late And now we're all alone Wedding bells ain't gonna chime With both of us guilty of crime And both of us sentenced to time And now we're all alone Protect me from what I want... Protect me protect me Protect me from what I want... Protect me protect me Protect me from what I want... Protect me protect me Protect me from what I want... Protect me protect me - Centrefolds5:02
Letra
Come on Balthazar I refuse to let you die Come on fallen star I refuse to let you die 'Cause that's wrong and I've been waiting far too long It's wrong I've been waiting far too long For you to be... be... be... be... be mine For you to be mine... be mine... for you to be mine And it's wrong, I've been waiting far too long It's wrong, I've been waiting far too long For you to be... be... be... be All the centrefolds that you can't afford They've long since waved their last good-byes All the centrefolds that you can't afford You've long since faded from their eyes So be... be mine [x2]
