Just before the sunrise, I look out at the angry sea. Sitting here just thinking, how deep would be deep enough for me? Pushed into a corner, just about to blow a fuse. We’re heading for disaster, enough to make the front page news The World spins round, who’ll save the day? not the old school ties They shape the truth, financial gain is the prize Hang them high, hang them high Hang them high, hang them high The World spins round, who’ll save the day? not the old school ties They shape the truth; financial gain is the prize The World spins round, who’ll save the day? not the old school ties They shape the truth; financial gain is the prize

I was following a line of least resistance Hoping something real would change But I realised That some things are destined to remain the same Must decide what I have to do Should I carry on like this? Or take a stand Look from the darkness into the……… Bright horizon where the sky kisses surf Bright horizon bringing me back to earth Showing me life has worth Bright horizon where the sky kisses surf Bright horizon bringing me back to earth Showing me life has worth Where the sky kisses surf Bring me backing to earth What’s your life worth? what your life's worth? What’s your life worth? what your life's worth? What’s your life worth? what your life's worth? What’s your life worth? what your life's worth?

Poor Ewe 04:47
Ahaa aha Ahaa aha Ahaaaa.........ha Skinny latte in the afternoon Check reflection in the back of a spoon Not a hair out of place Nor a blemish on your face Body beautiful, such high heels Keeping lean and skipping meals Bronze complexion from a can Twenty minutes for the perfect tan Ahaa aha Ahaa aha Ahaaaa.........ha Abuse your body so you look the same Nip, tuck and implant for the superficial game Rhinoplasty for that perfect nose Liposuction where your diet fails “Celeb” glossies for an education Express the thoughts of the fickle nation Conformation. You're so weak The clothes you're wearing they’re not so chic. Ahaa Ahaaaaaaa Ahaa Ahaaaaaaa Ahaaaaaaaaaaaa Ahaa Ahaaaaaaa Ahaa Ahaaaaaaa Ahaa aha Ahaa aha Ahaa aha Ahaa aha Ahaa aha Ahaa aha Ahaaaa..ha Nothing but a plastic girl Image conscious in your futile World A panto costume for the fantasy A total masking of your real beauty

You hid behind your lies Pulled the wool over their greedy eyes With confidence and grace You hid away your two sided face They were looking for a sure thing It blinded them to your final sting You pretended to be their friend They couldn’t see that they were just a means to an end But greed got the best of you You ran out of time, now what are you going to do? Cleo would have loved your scheme It helped to fund your American dream I can see it in your eyes, even though you try to hide, how you feel behind that smile. Now that you’ve lost your disguise, sitting there guilty as charged, you don’t even apologise After all is said and done, you know you won’t do the time, just another white collar crime Now you have to wear a vest to stop a bullet to the chest.

Standing freezing at the cash machine Punched my numbers, stare at the screen What do you know, overdrawn again! At Jon’s cafe I bought a cup Of espresso to wake me up What do you know, feeling drained again! See a girl sitting over there I’m trying not to but I have to stare Do you think she’ll ever notice me? In the queue we start to chat She looked so pretty in her beanie hat Didn’t think she’d ever notice me Rain or shine you’re here with me To The Pyramid to see The bands whose songs we love to sing Rain or shine you’re here with me To The Pyramid to see The bands whose songs we love to sing Want to take her to a foreign land Walking barefoot in the sand Far away from the madding crowd ’Til that time we’ll stand in the mud Back in the tent we talked and laughed Could it be she’s the one for me? Rain or shine you’re here with me To The Pyramid to see The bands whose songs we love to sing The bands whose songs we love to sing

We said, “That relationship has got to end” She said, “Don't you listen, we're the best of friends” You said, “They may be right, should we carry on?” She said, “Don't be a fool, our love is very strong” You're playing with so many souls; Don't carry on with that affair, there's nothing there Something's got to give If you don't quit, your best friend will take you over Something's got to give The alcohol will take its toll, as your life falls I said, “Your life is on the slide” You said, “It's hard to swim against the tide” I said, “Where's your dignity and sense of pride” You said, “Pushed deep, way down where it can hide”. You carried on with that affair You never listened to the ones who cared Something had to give You drove your family spare, now they’re not there and you don't care Something had to give Your life’s gone down the drain; your best friend won’t heal the pain You drove your family spare, now they’re not there and

It's such a shame, it's such a waste I long to hear your voice, to touch your face There's an ocean between us, There's no motion at all And when we let it, we will stand tall And when we talk, talk And when we talk, talk It's such a shame, it's such a waste I hear the smile in your voice, such a beautiful place There's an ocean between us, there's a notion I'll fall Keep me on this island, keep me one and all And when we talk, talk And when we talk, talk And when we talk, talk And when we talk, talk I know my way back home is through you I know my way back home is through you I know my way back home is through you I know my play is all done I'm coming home to you, I'm coming home to you I'm coming home to you, I'm coming home to you Come on undo Come on undo Come on undo Come on undo Come on undo Come on undo Come on undo Come on undo Come on undo Come on undo Come on undo Come on undo Come on undo Come on undo Come on undo Come on undooooooooo

See you through the window Wish I could speak To you, to get to know you But I'd be cotton mouthed Speechless, would babble, aimless, You would stay Nameless, my mind is willing But my feet seem stuck with glue. Look upstream River's red Float downstream Body's dead. See you through the window Think I should meet With you, to get to know you Though my heart would miss a beat Look upstream River's red Float downstream Body's dead See you through the window Wish I could speak To you, to get to know you But I'd be cotton mouthed Speechless, would babble, aimless, You would stay Nameless (Spoken lyrics) As we tip-toe through the morning He is lip flow for the yawning She is Summer, he is Winter They long to kiss her in the river Woodcutter and a horseman Can't resist her she is torsion He's a hero, she is fawning. Like a blister with no warning
