Take me away to your fairy-tale garden I’ll wear my cape wrapped right around my neck We’re both our own escapes, the childhood remains The naivety to still believe That we won’t bend We won’t break We won’t burn For our mistakes. Show me your way, your passage to freedom From prying eyes that take away my breath These walls wont keep us safe, our secret’s in the air No need to hide yet we conspire To keep us sane To keep us safe To hide the world From our mistake. Why should we change, content beyond reason We’re in-between, no need to be misled Their words won’t even dent, the castle we sleep in Free to reign, no noose around our neck ‘Cos we won’t bend We won’t break We’re riding free From their mistake.

Stepping out of the rain Into a hundred mile hurricane There's nothing left you say Oh baby how I wish it was that way. If the shoe fits don't wear it Content in bliss I can't bear it. But we both need our time to grow And intertwined we're trapped so We're parting ways Parting ways at the crossroads. Now you're off to the green The greener pastures that you seek No room left for me I guess I'll just ride in the back seat. If the shoe fits don't wear it Content in bliss I can't bear it. But we both need our time to grow And intertwined we're trapped so We're parting ways Parting ways at the crossroads. Don't come running its over you see Don't come running now, back to me.

Collide 05:37
If I could hide you from the world outside The darkness only known by you and I We're inconsolable yet intertwined Escape our burden's eyes Take our story's words and find the source The turning point, elation to remorse Compare our fairytale and utter worst From darkness to devine. I don't mind, where we go As we collide, I'll follow I don't mind, if I know Your every word, so hollow. Just say the word, and I will trail you down Deep beneath the earth and dusty ground A sanctuary where we can't be found The past wont haunt us now. Don't wake me please, all I have left is this dream Away from truths I cannot bear to see You chose him over everything and me Betrayed our only vow.

Safe House 05:10
The words that escaped my mouth I regret them now, but the damage is done I can’t escape your lies They’re our burden now, our history told. If you could release my soul I would turn around, and face life on my own But I can’t escape your eyes Under lock and key, I just want to be free. I don’t know where I should be I'm hanging on to your sympathy Grasping to your words of sand Washing through your hollow hands. Morality, blurring wrong from right I’m a hypocrite, being brought to the light No need to apologise I’m a vengeful soul, so bear the fruits that you’ve sewn. I will tear through all who I know No inhibition now, crown of thorns on my throne Its all hollow I realize A mild distraction from the truths I dare see. Forgiveness please come knock on my door There’s no room in me to hate anymore Let bitter scent subside This isn’t me, not what I want to be.

Fish to Find 03:18
Send it in a postcard But don't address it to home 'Cos baby I'm gone Feel around for my arms In your empty bed 'Cos I'm not there. Baby if you don't know by now All the things you put me through And all the things you said you'd do Is it wrong for wanting some change From everyday philosophies and all the animosity? On the sweet free breeze With a little spark of spontaneity I've become what I most enjoy I've become the Gypsy Boy. I'm travelling on you know I'm travelling light With no regrets and no insights I left you there with no one by your side Drunk mornings and sleepless nights, no. You can turn it around and upside down Look under every rock 'Cos baby I cant be found You're the full proof fool And there's nothing left to say or do 'Cos I'm not there I'm smiling free Those tears were temporary There are many fish to find And you're the one I left behind And baby there's no point to cry 'Cos I'm moving on now and I'm happy anyhow.

Cold hearted woman Got ice in her chest Cold hearted woman In her red floral dress Hands by her sides Worn to the bone There's something haunting How her voice drones on She said: "Come down here boy Dont you be scared 'Cos I wont hurt you I'll just rip off your head" Cold hearted woman She's so cold inside Regretful and bitter Is all I can see But how can you blame her? When she's down on her knees. Man ran off and left her After beating her dry Blood on the walls And she's got two black eyes.
