Here lies a story straight from my mind. A tale about a love that's not hard to find. But it cuts deep. The penalty's crushing, harder, tearing me in two. Oh, no, won't you see what I've done? Lost myself in obsession and fun. Wore my heart on my sleeve, but a chip on my shoulder Colder than the look you through my way. Nothing to say. Now I'm near defeat, the whole of the world's put on their dancing feet And so the rhythms get etched in my mind, left their footprints but left me behind. Now I'm on my own, it's after midnight, walk home all alone But still that memory fills me with grace, Wraps me up, lifts me out of this place. Oh, no. Won't you see what I've done? Lost myself in the presence of one. Is it hurting you too? Do you feel empty? Plenty of others thought they knew. Now I'm near defeat, the whole of the world's put on their dancing feet And so the rhythms get etched in my mind, left their footprints but left me behind. Now I'm on my own, it's after midnight, walk home all alone But still that memory fills me with grace, Wraps me up, lifts me out of this place. Wore my heart on my sleeve, but a chip on my shoulder Colder than the look you through my way. Nothing to say.

On and On 03:08
Silence. It's a waste of my time. "Leave me", she said, "For my own peace of mind". But, oh, there's one thing I know, That every second seems a lifetime when you're alone. But it goes on, and on, and on, and on and on. I'm pulling away, Only to find that I'm feeling so different today. But, oh, there's one thing I know, That every second seems a lifetime when you're alone. But it goes on, and on, and on, and on and on. And on, and on and on. And on, and on, and on And on, and on, and on But, oh, there's one thing I know, That every second seems a lifetime when you're alone. But it goes on, and on, and on, and on and on. (BV’S repeat ‘On and On…’ in background) And on and on Ooo…

That's right, I'm here again Doesn't take much, you know. Keep happy, keep up my defence Oh, so easy, you know. Frequent call. Do you think that you know me at all? I know, I know, why you see me like this. And I don't, I don't, I don't blame you one bit. So what, so I, I don't quite understand? 'Cause I stumbled on this accidently. That's right, I'm here again It's so easy to stay. Take the reigns because I fail at the wheel Oh, so easy to say what you feel. Take me more than for just a done deal. I know, I know, why you see me like this. And I don't, I don't, I don't blame you one bit. So what, so I, I don't quite understand? 'Cause I stumbled on this accidently. Oh, so let me be, Take this god damn weight off of me. Try to refine, When my heart's not so safe on the line. A muse, I'm afraid, because again I got carried away. You owe this to me, please. Put my mind at ease. Oh, I stumbled on this accidently. Yes, I stumbled on you accidently.

Shine 04:04
Take a deeper breathe Slowly close your eyes Trying to escape’s not such a crime. Never feel ashamed You never hear them say ‘A problem shared is a problem gained’ I worry my friend, that you don’t listen I worry my friend, you hear too much. I worry my friend, when I see you I worry my friend, when we lose touch. Why you ask me ‘Please, don’t you dare go worrying about me.’ Well I ask of you, that you listen oh listen to me. Won’t you listen to me? You’re not broken boy. Shine kid, shine. I worry my friend, of what you tell me I worry my friend, that that’s not all. I worry my friend, that you are laughing I worry my friend, I wonder what for. Why you ask me ‘Please, don’t you dare go worrying about me.’ Well I ask of you, that you listen oh listen to me. Won’t you listen to me? You’re not broken boy. Shine kid, shine.

Well isn't it just about time you stopped this feeling alone? Yes, it never rains but it pours and soaks you through to the bone. And isn't it just about time you see that there's always something? And right now that's me. Oh, believe me, believe me, I'm made up this way. I worry, I worry, all my days away. But give (give) me (me) time, I'll overide these flaws of mine. And isn't it just about time you helped yourself off the ground? Uncertainty's clouding your way and fear's just pulling you down. And isn't it just about time you see that there's always something? And right now that's me. Oh, believe me, believe me, I'm made up this way. I worry, I worry, all my days away. But give (give) me (me) time, I'll overide these flaws of mine. These flaws of mine, I will, (aaah…) I will, I will, I will Ooo… I'll overide these flaws of mine. I'll overide these flaws of mine.
