People say it’s no good Things are done and understood Status quo is what we need The rich get richer and others bleed There’s nothing wrong having luck on your side But we’re not alone You and I Government decides to give more to you You seem happy well I’m happy, too Options are many for people like us I feel so privileged moving up There’s nothing wrong having luck on your side But we’re not alone You and I All along I found a way To escape all things people say When you’re down when you’re stuck Keep on trying You’ll find your way out You’ll find your way out You’ll find your way out Society is trying eagerly to overspend Giving out money is the new way to pretend All we need is to buy all this new stuff All we need is to forget life can be rough There’s nothing wrong having luck on your side But we’re not alone You and I All along I found a way To escape all things people say When you’re down when you’re stuck Keep on trying You’ll find your way out You’ll find your way out You’ll find your way out You’ll find your way out You’ll find your way out You’ll find your way out You’ll find your way out All along I found a way To escape all things people say When you’re down when you’re stuck Keep on trying You’ll find your way out When you’re down When you’re stuck Keep on trying You will find a way out

Inspiration walks in while I’m sit by the door Drinking my favourite coffee in my favourite coffee bar What happens at that time I’m still to understand Everything becomes a mess still I find my aim Cease the day Do what makes your heart Sing with joy and catapult your love Make a wish Don’t be afraid to try To spice up your life Inspiration walks in while I’m in my rehearsal space Just looking at the walls takes me to a different place My empty head gets filled with so many strange ideas Everything collapses and then finds its way back in Cease the day Do what makes your heart Sing with joy and catapult your love Make a wish Don’t be afraid to try To spice up your life Inspiration walks in while I gently sleep Dreaming about things to push into reality Many times I wake up wondering just why My muse has its hold on me and there’s nowhere left to hide Cease the day Do what makes your heart Sing with joy and catapult your love Make a wish Don’t be afraid to try To spice up your life To spice up your life To spice up your life To spice up your life To spice up your life To spice up your life

Neurotic Me 03:20
Here’s me looking at myself in the mirror All my thoughts belonging to some crazy delusion crawling so ever nearer Something’s got to change Before I fade away Storing all my feelings To be released in just one day Blame it all on someone else if you mean it But I can’t cope with the feeling that all I do is my own fault Something’s got to change Before I fade away Storing all my feelings To be released in just one day I can feel it coming It’s all around me now I feel the heat If I keep on running Neurotic Me will never be set free Hopefully there’ll be a day Where I can say I don’t have to end up all ready to break Hopefully I’ll do what triggers all kinds of luck And I get to meet my new improved self I can feel it coming It’s all around me now I feel the heat If I keep on running Neurotic Me will never be set free I can feel it coming It’s all around me now I feel the heat If I keep on running Neurotic Me will never be set free

Once Again 03:51
Blame it on me time Who did what Why is that we can’t just get along You’re pointing your finger at me For something I’m not You’re having a go at me For thinking out loud Once again I knock myself out cold Believing every rumor that I’m told Once again I know what I should do I just need to stay away from you Stay away from you Stay away from you That’s all I need to do Can you really tell Who started this Can you remember What did we miss? So many people complain About things the lack Why are we still arguing About things we can get back Once again I knock myself out cold Believing every rumor that I’m told Once again I know what I should do I just need to stay away from you Stay away from you Stay away from you That’s all I need to do There are people out there We all seem to love It’s too bad we can’t be that For each other anymore Once again I knock myself out cold Believing every rumor that I’m told Once again I know what I should do I just need to stay away from you Stay away from you Stay away from you That’s all I need to do Stay away from you Stay away from you That’s all I need to do

I Can Wait 05:02
You go through life with expectations Soon you find your limitations My plans went sour weren’t meant to be I just needed time off to help me see I can wait I can wait For the best things in my life My neighbour’s car is causing a commotion Everyone I know is getting a promotion So I wonder why did I fail again Realizing it makes no sense to get upset I can wait I can wait For the best things in my life So I make some changes And follow my instincts I start taking better care of myself I rip out pages in my calendar and mark the spot Where I gave myself a break And went for a fresh start I can wait I can wait For the best things in my life

Blank 04:21
Can’t believe what I said the thing about what’s at stake When you take a chance and fall down flat on your face Am I wasting time asking for you to sign Never asking you to doubt the small print on the dotted line I’m awake late at night Stay with me we’ll be allright We are where we should be Life will change You will see Can you tell if we should go Somewhere new or somewhere old All the problems in the world will go away by themselves That’s what I’m told Filling out a blank page With doodles making no sense At least they’re mine to cherish While my sanity descends Am I wasting time again Filling out another blank page I can’t believe I’m staying I can’t believe I’m still here I can’t believe You’re still telling me There’s nothing to fear Filling out a blank page With doodles making no sense At least they’re mine to cherish While my sanity descends Am I wasting time again Filling out another blank page So my life is empty There’s nothing to fill The empty void inside of me Where you used to be But I refuse to stay In an unhappy place I can make more of my life Time to end this disgrace Filling out a blank page With doodles making no sense At least they’re mine to cherish While my sanity descends Am I wasting time again Filling out another blank page

Mean 04:26
I’ll never sell my soul Just to feel renewed There are certain things we can never bring Info our lives if we want to stay whole Can you tell me now Who are we supposed to be Living our lives for since we need to be These strangers we have never seen You’re so mean Tearing our lives apart Get out of my dreams Give me back my heart Wasting time again Reading the book of my disappointing past So all this time flies by And you suddenly realize That the small things that used to mean nothing Means everything to you now What is there left to learn Does it ever really help To know all the things that you did wrong So you can feel new regret You’re so mean Tearing our lives apart Get out of my dreams Give me back my heart Wasting time again Reading the book of my disappointing past Wasting time again What can I do I don’t want this to last

In The Loop 04:31
I need to be in the loop I don’t like to be left in the dark I need to focus absolute And not crawl along a similar path Can you open the door Let me in I’m crawling on the floor Won’t you please help me out I want to be in the loop I want to be in the loop Differences aside we are not So far away from who we once were We would never scream and shout We would never punch it out Can you open the door Let me in I’m crawling on the floor Won’t you please help me out I want to be in the loop I want to be in the loop I want to be in the loop I want to be in the loop Can you open the door Let me in I’m crawling on the floor Won’t you please help me out I want to be in the loop I want to be in the loop I want to be in the loop I want to be in the loop

Great trip home again My empty home sparks the usual feeling That in some way I’m missing out I always blend in then exit out I don’t want to live my life in a crowd A gentle pad on my back All the conversation we could have Would stop the raining from any cloud I always blend in then exit out I don’t want to live my life in a crowd There’s a full life to be lived And I know what I want right now All I want is you All I want is you All I want is to Do right by you Having second thoughts again Going through the motions when I quickly realize that it’s true I keep blending in exit out I don’t want to live my life in a crowd There’s a full life to be lived And I know what I want right now All I want is you All I want is you All I want Is to Do right by you I keep wasting time Thinking about what’s yours and mine When I know that all I want is you So I keep blending in exiting out But I don’t want to live my life in a crowd All I want is you All I want is you All I want Is to Do right by you All I want is you All I want is you All I want Is to Do right by you Do right by you
