let me introduce myself
let me introduce my bad self
hundred beats per minute baby
don't mean shit to me - to me
this ain't no blast - this ain't no blast - this ain't no blast from the past
future - oh oh - this ain't no blast from the past
future - no future - your future
my dick's the bomb - baby
future - your future - your future

I, I always believed in futures
I hope for better in November
Try the same booth, same lucky numbers
It could be a cold night for a lifetime
Hey now, you can't keep singing endlessly
My darling, how long until this sun burns me?
Say hello to good times
Trade up all the fast lines
We close our eyes while the nickel and dime take the streets completely
I, I always could count on futures
And things would look up, they'd look up
Why, so hard to find a balance
Between living decent and the cold and real
Hey now, what is it you think you see?
My darling, now's the time to disgaree
Say hello to good times
Trade up all the fast lines
We close our eyes while the nickel and dime take the streets completely
Hey now, the past is told by those who live
My darling, what matters is what hasn't been
Hey now, we're wide awake and we're thinking
My darling, believe your votes can mean something
Say hello to good times
Trade up all the fast lines
We close our eyes while the nickel and dime take the streets completely

Made a note of it
Did you write it on your hand
Put a name on it
To help you understand
Well do you see
The futures holidays are for me
Just let me know
Where we go after the fall
Like the sound of it
Gonna hang it on your wall
Turn and run with it
For the sake of one and all
Where you go, nobody knows
Well do you see
The futures holidays are for me
Just let me know
Where to go

When I was a young boy I looked forward to a future
Oh so bright and grandiose
It couldn't come soon enough
Now I spend every day questioning my self worth
Wondering what it takes to get by unscathed
Positive outlook/unrealistic ideas/satisfy no one
Life is wasted on a pipe dream
Working harder every day, believing in what they say
Crawling desperate for the door, searching for an escape

I will thank you and I will sing.
Until my lungs give out
And I can barely breathe.
If this is what you want then I will start belief,
Like on the back of a map where you can only dream.
I won't hold back
and I won't stop.
Until I look back on a list all ticked in box.
Because all these things I do involve my voice.
And all these things achieved are down to you and me.
I will thank you for everything in good
With all this talk about souls under foreign skies.
I will thank you for everything in good
With all this talk about souls.
I will thank you and I will sing
Until you see the real side of how I feel.
If this is what you hate then you're lying through your teeth
Cause I've been searching high and low with my team.
I know I always sleep with the light on,
Just in case they see.
That I only dare to dose at night,
Just in case the come flying through the front door.
With their arms stretched wide enough to fly,
Saying ‘I will take you there,
I will take you there.'
With their wings stretched opening my eyes,
Singing ‘I will take you there.

Are you going to lose someone,
Who settles in your mouth
And sits on your tongue?
And are you going to shake that grudge,
That's been settling on your patch
since you hit your teens?
You've got so much to give,
Over a weekend.
But I'm not sure I'm gona stay out this late.
You've got so much to give,
Over a weekend.
I've been breaking bones since I was sixteen.
Now I'm three years on and I feel so good.
Are you going to lose someone,
Who reads you front to back like the book
that you've become?
And are you going to shake that love,
That's been chasing down your spine,
Since you hit one six.

Get up, head feels like a cannonball
Walk straight and your legs only let you fall
In a room where you spent most of the night
Jump in and sink like a diver
To the bottom where you know that you'll find her
In a room where you spent most of the night
And I want you
And I want you
Shoes on, head feels like a cannonball
Closed door, closed mind, you got nowhere to hide
On a street where you spend most of your life
Jump in and sink like a diver
To the bottom, where you know that you'll find her
In a room where you spent most of the night
And I want you
So come on over
And I want you
And all we've got is this fire
Fire
How do we always end up hurt
Fire
Fire
Get up, head feels like a cannonball
Walk straight and your legs only let you fall
In a room where you spent most of your life
Fire
All we've got is this fire
Fire
How do we always end up hurt
Fire
Fire
And I want you
So come on over
And I want you
And I want you
So come on over
And I want you
All we've got is this fire
Fire
How do we always end up hurt
Fire
Fire

The Summer's only six weeks long,
But I wish it was longer, I wish it was longer.
Cause Love can only stretch out days in weeks, in months, in years.
If I could be just what you want, then I would travel to the sun.
If I could be just what you want.
I haven't made my bed for weeks
And I'm not gona get up.
These thoughts of you, they live in dreams,
and I'm not gona get up.
A wedding's only one day long,
But I wish it was longer, I wish it was longer.
Cause Love can only grow legs in a night,
And treat you once in your life.
Growing old is round the bend,
But I wish it was further, I wish it was further.
Cause we can only stretch out days in weeks, in months, in years.
So I'll sing you, like a bird to a song.
If only we knew, if only we grew,

aid, I'm gonna give you my tongue
And I'm sure you're gonna laugh, sure you're gonna laugh
Cause all you've really had before
Has made you pay the right price, baby pay the right price.
We'll follow these lines for miles
So listen with your ears and talk with your hands
Cause where we're driving now
Will open your eyes, baby open your eyes
I'll show you the world
If you just take me by the hand
And talk about our souls
And I'll show the road
If you just take me by the hand
And talk about out souls
Said I'm gonna drive to L.A
And you shouldn't look back, baby never look back
Cause I am one of those who locks the door behind
And I am one of those who dreads to see the white light
Said, I'm gonna give you my tongue
And I'm sure you're gonna laugh, sure you're gonna laugh
Cause all you've really had before
I'll show you the world
If you just take me by the hand
And talk about our souls
And I'll show you the road
If you just put me in the right direction
And I'll show you the world
If you just take me by the hand
And talk about our souls
And I'll show you the road
If you just put me in the right direction
I'll show you the world
If you just take me by the hand
And talk about our souls
And I'll show you the road
If you just put me in the right direction
And I'll show you the world
If you just take me by the hand
And talk about our souls
And I'll show you the road
If you just put me in the right direction
And I'll show you the world
If you just take me by the hand
And talk about our souls
And I'll show you the road

We got locked away,
In a place where we don't speak,
A place where we can meet each other's ghosts.
We got locked away,
In a place where nothing's real,
where we can see the sun but all we feel is cold.
Cause we've got love in a different disguise,
I'm feeling alive.
I'm feeling alive.
Cause we've got love in a different disguise,
I'm feeling so alive.
And it's you.
You've got me running running round my own head.
You've got me chasing stars that seem too far,
too ever catch.
We got locked away,
on an island in the sea,
a place where we can dream about the good old days.
But we're almost home,
to a place where I can see,
where we can find our feet and all we see is gold.
Cause we've got love in a different disguise,
I'm feeling alive.
I'm feeling alive.
Cause we've got love in a different disguise,
I'm feeling so alive.
And it's you.
You've got me running running round my own head.
You've got me chasing stars that seem too far,
too ever catch.
And it's you.
You've got me running running round my own head.
You've got me chasing stars that seem too far,
too ever catch.
We'll get back up, even if this takes forever.
[repeat]
And it's you.
You've got me running running round my own head.
You've got me chasing stars that seem too far,
too ever catch.
And it's you.
You've got me running running round my own head.
You've got me chasing stars that seem too far,
too ever catch.
And it's you.
You've got me running running round my own head.
You've got me chasing stars that seem too far,

I will push pause on you,
Until you throw me overboard.
I’ve been waiting in the longest of lines,
Saying all the wrong things,
At all the perfect times.
Well I’ve read books that have changed my mind,
Whilst you turn another blind eye.
We all grow to live the shoes we’re in,
But I am one that takes a risk.
This day will be the death of us,
And all that we know,
And I am so excited for the time away.
I will cut strings off you.
Until to you walk by yourself.
I’ve holding back the tallest of tales,
Hidden from my ear to ear,
In the wildest of smiles.
I’ve read books that have changed my mind,
Whilst you turn another blind eye.
We all grow to love the shoes we’re in,
But you are not the right fit.
I’ve read books that have changed my mind.
I’ve met Atlantic Souls who live life so blind.
I’ve faced love in the loneliest of rooms.
But still I long for you,
Yes still I long for you.
I’ve been told that I’m going to get so far.
And you’ve been told to hold back, hold back.
This day will be the death of us,
And all that we know,

While walking out one evening, not knowing where to go
just to pass the time away, before we held our show
I heard a little mission band, playing with all their might
I gave my heart to Jesus, and left the show that night
The day will soon be over
and evening will be gone
no more gems to be gathered
so let us all press on
when jesus comes to claim us
and says it is enough
The diamonds will be shinning
no longer in the rough
While reading through the Bible, some wonderous sights I see
I read of Peter, James and John by the sea of Galilee
and Jesus when he found them, he found them mighty tough
they were precious diamonds, to be gathered in the rough
The day will soon be over
and evening will be gone
no more gems to be gathered
so let us all press on
when jesus comes to claim us
and says it is enough
The diamonds will be shinning

The Summer’s only six weeks long,
But I wish it was longer, I wish it was longer.
Cause Love can only stretch out days in weeks, in months, in years.
If I could be just what you want, then I would travel to the sun.
If I could be just what you want.
I haven’t made my bed for weeks
And I’m not gona get up.
These thoughts of you, they live in dreams,
and I’m not gona get up.
A wedding’s only one day long,
But I wish it was longer, I wish it was longer.
Cause Love can only grow legs in a night,
And treat you once in your life.
Growing old is round the bend,
But I wish it was further, I wish it was further.
Cause we can only stretch out days in weeks, in months, in years.
So I’ll sing you, like a bird to a song.
If only we knew, if only we grew,

I told myself,
To set sail on you - This is always the way.
Cause I live my life
With a second smile - And I will always wear it for you.
I will reach for your hand as I walk in the dark,
So take me home, just take me home.
I told myself,
To set sail on you - I will never change.
Cause this little light of mine,
Yes I'm gona let it shine. - Cause I am always screaming for you.
I will reach for your hand as I walk in the dark,
So take me home, just take me home.
Cause I can feel your, yes I can feel your
Good vibrations.
I'd walk the world to surprise you.
Drop everything just to get to you.
And one of the days,
We're going to be 11 storeys high.
I'd walk the world to surprise you.
Drop everything just to get to you.
And one of these days,
We're going to be 26 feet high.
And I'll make damn sure,
I'd make a way with you - Things are always the same.
Cause you pulled the sheet over my eyes,
And I've been asleep.,

I'm pulling teeth,
Just to know your name.
And I'm growing my hair.
Because I've been told
That you like it better
With an oh so sweet dose of honesty.
I'll plant you the seeds of a tree,
So you can start your climb away from me.
Cause nobody likes a liar like do.
This is the Boy who cried wolf,
Too many times before, too many times before.
This is the Boy who cried wolf,
And he is not one to be counted on.
I'm swinging signs,
To show you where to look.,
I'm talking to your best friends,
Just to meet you at the end.
With my oh so sweet reputation.
I'll plant you the seeds of a tree,
So you can start your climb away from me.
Cause nobody likes a liar like do.
You ignore what they say
As I do honest things.
We've got to hand ourselves in,
We've got to hand ourselves in.
I follow rules and walk pavements,
Whilst you bend noughts to squares.
I'm going to hate you for this,
I'm gona hate you for this.
When you ignore what they say
When I do honest things,
We've got to hand ourselves in,
We've got to hand ourselves in.
Cause you have cried too many times
When there's nothing in the field.
I'll always hate you for this,
