The Pineapple Thief is a progressive/indie rock band, started by Bruce Soord in 1999 in Somerset, England.
Founder Bruce Soord started "The Pineapple Thief" as an outlet for his music back in 1999. Bruce released the debut Abducting the Unicorn on Cyclops records, which created enough to establish a small but loyal fan base. Soord returned to the Dining Room studios to work on the second album 137. During this time, several major labels started to take an interest, causing a delay in the release which arrived over two years after the debut. However it was probably the third album, Variations on a Dream that gave TPT the boost they needed, reaching out to yet more people all over the world, by which point TPT were consistently the top sellers on their label, Cyclops.
After this release in the spring of 2002 Bruce decided to form a band to take his music to the fans. The band consisted of his close musical friends - former university band mate Jon Sykes on bass, Wayne Higgins on guitars, Matt O'Leary on keyboards and Keith Harrison on drums. As a full band, they released 12 Stories Down in 2004, but Bruce Soord was unhappy with the final sound and re-recorded, remixed and changed some of the tracks before the release of 10 Stories Down in 2005. Matt O'Leary subsequently left the band, but Steve Kitch (who co-produced and mixed 10 Stories Down) joined to play keyboards.
So this is where I hurt,
You know I won’t make it,
I won’t make it
And every day it hurts,
You know I can’t break it,
I wont break it
I never want to know,
What you mean to me, to me
And all I need to know, I need to know
That you are here with me, with me, with me
Consider where I hurt,
You know your love breaks me,
Your love breaks me,
And I won’t make you hurt,
You know I can’t break it,
I won’t break it
I never want to know,
What you mean to me, to me
And all I need to know, I need to know
That you are here with me, with me, with me
I never want to know,
What you mean to me, to me,
And all I need to know, I need to know
That you are here with me, with me,
And all I need to know, I need to know,
That you are here with me, with me,
And all I need to know, I need to know,
You see, you see
Something in my eyes that isn’t there
I’d be, I’d be
The one who heals the wounds when they are bare
And so say,
All of you,
And so say,
All of you
And I want to save you all,
The ones who suffer,
But I can’t find the words,
To make you better,
And I want to give you back the years we’ve wasted
But I can’t find the time, I misplaced it
And so say,
All of you,
And so say,
All of you.
I wish you’d walk away,
I wish that you would stay,
Wish I had the time, to ruin all your time,
Etching out a lie, different to the one,
You need.
Slam another door, feign another war,
Booby trap my trail, knowing it will fail,
Shrapnel for your tears, everyday it nears,
A place where I will cheer, me home
Running around, running me down,
It’s easy to see and easy to be,
Turn it around and bury me, so we can
Don’t settle up for this,
Think what you will have missed,
An easy time away,
With people who can say,
All the perfect words,
For ever and a day
Settle up for me, the easy pill is free,
Imaginary walls, you will never see
After all you plead, you can never leave,
I will never leave me
Running around, running me down,
It’s easy to see and easy to be,
Turn it around and bury me, so we can
Don’t settle up for this,
Don’t settle up for this,
Settle up for this,
Settle up for this
Running, keep running,
Me down, me down,
Keep running, keep running,
Me down, me down.
Keep running, keep running,
Me down, me down,
Keep running, keep running,
Me down, me down
I found it
Deserted
My army
Deserted
And I deserve it so much
And I will settle down with what you; ve got
I'll settle down. What ever you give me
I'll build it
What I owe you
Imprisoned
I owe you
And you deserve it so much
And i will give you...
Clear, warm seas
And golden sands
For you and I
And a vast blue sky
Fading into stars
Tomorrow, tomorrow
no warning, no warning
And you're the next one
you're the next one
and you're the next one
you're the next one to go
take me with you
take me with you
dead without you
i'm dead without you
if you're the next one
you're the next you
if you're the next one
you're the next one to go
if you're the next one
if you're the next one
if you're the next one
you're the next one to go
if you're the next one
And all our worlds subside
With everything inside
And always wonder why, we carry on
And always wonder why, we sing this song
And always wonder why, we carry on,
And always wonder why, now you are gone
We'll carry on
We'll sing this song
To carry on.
And always wonder why…
And always wonder why…
You're sleeping
Without dreaming
You've nowhere to go
No fighting
No meaning
We all
Just
Let go
I don't want the answers
I don't need to know
I just want You back here
We'll never let go
You're leaving
without breathing
you watch it
Dissolve
No fighting
No meaning
You've nowhere to go
I don't want the answers
I don't need to know
I just want You back here
We'll never let go
I don't want the answers
I don't need to know
I just want You back here
We'll never let go
I just want You back here
I just want You back here
You're leaving
Without breathing
Do as we tell you,
You don’t need a say,
Don’t let them sway you,
There’s no other way
Hmm (etc etc)
Take our hands and follow us,
To the end of, end of us
Just do as we tell you,
You don’t have a choice,
There’s no answers for you,
There’s no other voice
Hmm (etc etc)
Take our hands and follow us,
To the end of, end of us
Take our hands and follow us,
To the end of, end of us
Don’t fight….

Its taking a while, he said,
Keep shouting at the wall,
Never get out, he said,
Unless you take the fall,
Taking too long, I said,
I cannot climb this wall,
Its taking too long, I said,
Watch me as I fall.
Feel around the smoke forever,
Scratching at the air,
And the gods demand, but I can never,
Puncture the despair, the despair
An advert for the world, they gave,
In easy bit size pieces, pieces,
I cannot change the world, they said,
So we’ll cut you into pieces, pieces
Feel around the smoke forever,
Scratching at the air,
And the gods demand, but I can never,
Puncture the despair, the despair
Feel around the smoke forever,
Scratching at the air,
And the gods demand, but I can never,
Puncture the despair, the despair
Feel around the smoke forever,
Scratching at the air,
And the gods demand, but I can never,
Remove my daylight,
Where sculptures wheeze
Transforming pixels to a green & black freeze,
Sat in my black chair where all my world melts down.
(chorus)
Drain, the colour from my screen,
You have become me.
Drain the surface of my soul,
You have me.
Contain your fears,
In a fragile grasp
Walk along the carpet lain to see her last
Sculpture in green & black before she melts down.
I wouldn't do a thing for this,
I couldn't wish for a system fix.
But if I could change the colours of my life,
They're yours & not in black & white.
(chorus)
Drain, the colour from my screen,
You have become me.
Drain the surface of my soul,
One day, the last day, it was beauty to hold,
Take back, I would take back, I would claw back,
What they stole
Hold on just a little bit longer,
Just hold on just a little bit longer,
I hold you ,when you’re dead in the water,
I hold you, when you’re dead in the water.
Cry out, just you cry out,
Will they answer, your call,
Sense of, make some sense of,
Just don’t try me, at all
Hold on just a little bit longer,
Just hold on just a little bit longer,
I hold you ,when you’re dead in the water,
I hold you, when you’re dead in the water.
There is nobody else my love,
There is nobody else my love,
There is no other place, to die,
There is no other place, to die,
Except for my arms…
Except for my arms…
My arms…
Except for my arms…
Except for, except for, except for, my arms,
Except for, except for, except for, my arms,
Except for, except for, except for, my arms,
Except for, except for, except for, my arms
You crawling for life as someone new
You’re calling to a voice to come to you
But its all in your mind, its all in your mind
Its all in your mind
Just because its past its still insane
Its irrelevant to me because I came
To a different world, a different world
A different world
We’re happier we don’t know what to do
We calling to the voice, the one that’s new
We’re all in a trance, we’re all in a trance
We’re all in a trance
Cos you’re all in a trance, you’re all in a trance
You’re all in a……….
We’re happier we don’t know what to do,
We’re happier we don’t know what to do, to do
We’re happier we don’t know what to do, to do
We’re happier we don’t know what to do, to do
Its irrelevant to me, because I came
Its irrelevant to me, because I came
Its irrelevant to me, because I came
Its irrelevant to me, because I came
Its irrelevant to me…..
Its irrelevant to me, because I came
To a different world, a different world
Marching, look everyone’s marching,
To tell me the ending in nigh,
Dawning, the reality is dawning,
Until it is blinding my eyes
So catch the jumping fool,
You are the jumping fool,
Warning, I can give you some warning,
So they can all fall in your way,
Foresight, I can give you some foresight,
So it might be alright, you prey
So catch the jumping fool,
You are the jumping fool,
So you misread the rules,
So catch the jumping fool…
So catch the jumping fool…
To catch the jumping fool… (repeated)
10. Start your decent
If only you knew,
What I give to you,
Just get in my way,
I beg you to stay
But there goes the moment,
So I’ll start the decent,
And there goes the last chance,
To take, the last dance,
And there goes…
And I’ve been myself,
All by myself,
And I’ve seen you go,
And you’ll never know
So there goes the moment,
So I’ll start the decent,
And there goes the last chance,
To take the last dance,
So there goes the moment,
So I’ll start the decent,
And there goes the last chance,
To take the last dance,
You're here

You say the things you do
Broken and down
I'm still in love with you
You never meant to play
You never meant
Cause I am just one step away
And are you one more step away?
Cause I am just one step away
I'm just one step away
I never meant to play
I never meant to
I'm never gonna find you

You never meant to play
You never meant
Cause I am just one step away
And are you one more step away?
Cause I am just one step away
I'm just one step away
And I don't know how
The day breaks your battered heart,
The sun rips your world apart,
And we will see it fall,
Yeah we will see it fall
Live each day if it is your last,
The life lost in a photograph,
And we will join them all,
Yeah we join them all
We are just falling snow,
So settle down, settle down
And I will slow your fall,
That is all, that is all
We are just falling snow,
Just settle down, just settle down,
And I will slow your fall,
That is all, that is all
We are both falling snow,
So settle down, just settle down,
And in amongst them all,
And finally into our world
Do you know what
You let yourself in for
And finally into our world
And God knows what
He let yourself in for
What have we sown, what have we sown
To shut your eyes until you flown
Wherever you are, wherever you are
I'll be with you
And you and me we are the same
Do you know what?
You let yourself in for
And you and me we are the same
And God knows what
He let yourself in for
What have we sown, what have we sown
To shut your eyes until you flown
Wherever you are, wherever you are
I'll be with you
What have we sown, what have we sown
To shut your eyes until they flown
Wherever you are, wherever you are
I'll be with you

I find it hard to find the simple way
When the simple way,
Is an ocean.
I find it hard to justify these days
When all our days,
Are just a token.
I hope you hear the things i need to say
As they will remain,
Unspoken.
So read my mind.
It's crying out for love, to find.
This is the start of the end for me
As the end for me,
Is not over.
And everyday is a little more to see
A little more to be
And is Is no one listening?
And oh, someone here is missing.
I should have strove,
I should have fought,
I should have shown a little love.
A little love.
You're in my heart,
You're in my heart.
But that's the easy way out.
And oh,
Is no one listening?
And yeah,
There's someone missing.
And oh, there's someone here,
Look what you've done
Won't you look at me, just this once?
So take it and sit back
And I'll forfeit what we had
And I will give it back to you
Yeah, I will give it back to you
Just give me a little love
The little promises
For what it's worth
So take it and sit back
I have nothing of what I had
And I will give it back to you
And I will give it back to you
What do you want me to say?
I will give it back to you
What do you want me to say?
You want em the first time I touched you?
Long ago,
I remember every minute of the days,
Would go so fast we didn’t notice,
We were here to stay, how did we find our way
Please lose yourself for a night,
Let me take the weight away from you,
Please lose yourself for a night,
Let me take the weight away from you, tonight
Far away,
We couldn’t see the pictures, that we made today,
Its hanging on its own, but we are here to stay,
How did we find our way
Please lose yourself for a night,
Let me take the weight away from you,
Please lose yourself for a night,
Let me take the weight away from you, tonight
Tonight, tonight, tonight,
We were here to stay, how did we find our way
We were here to stay, how did we find our way
Please lose yourself for a night,
Let me take the weight away from you,
Please lose yourself for a night,
Let me take the weight away from you,
Please lose yourself for a night,
Let me take the weight away from you,
Please lose yourself for a night,
We’re tightly wove for all its worth
We’re tightly wound from our birth
The cuts in you, the cuts in me
Worth the price I’d pay to be?
The one whose taking all your life
The one who keeps your world alive
One more soul to fall apart
One more soul to break my heart
You’re the one who drives the knife through
that’s what I said, yes that’s what I said
You’re the one who drives the knife through
that’s what I said, yes that’s what I said
The one who’s lost a beating heart
The one who’s life is ripped apart
One who hold my bleeding hand
The one without you will not stand
One more move before you go
There’s one more thing you have to know
I’m lost with you, you’re lost with me
There’s nowhere else we’d need to be
I’m the one who drives the knife through
that’s what I said, yes that’s what I said
I’m the one who drives the knife through
that’s what I said, yes that’s what I said
We're flying too low.
We're flying too low.
And trying to go far.
But finding it hard.
We've your vapour trails to follow, you home.
We're flying too fast.
We're flying too fast.
And finding, it won't last.
But something, must pass
And what a wondrous thing,
You have found within,
And what a wondrous thing,
The pretty fools who sing
To a different tune,
The night would take them soon,
You only have to prey,
Forever and a day
And you must pity me,
I’m sure you’ll prey for me,
And you want to cradle me,
And you have my sympathy
And what a wretched thing,
You have found within,
You ever wondered why,
You’re leaving us to die
Keep signing to your tune,
The night will take you soon,
A tiny sacrifice,
For your private paradise
And you must pity me,
And I’m sure you’ll prey for me,
And you want to cradle me,
And you have my sympathy
I’m turning the light on, oh no,
I’ve seen this all before,
I’m turning the light on, to go,
I cannot take much more,
Man in the mirror, oh no,
I’ve seen this face before,
Stare at the mirror…
Oh no, please…
I know I’m not invincible,
But I thought I was all the same,
I know I’m not invincible,
But I thought I was…
Thought I was all the same.
I know I’m not invincible,
But I thought I was all the same,
I know I’m not invincible,
But I thought I was…
Thought I was all the same.
I’m caught in a loop now, I hear,
The same thing everyday,
I’m caught in a loop now, I fear,
It never comes my way,
Singing the outro, they’re gone,
They’ve heard it all before,
But this is the last show,
Oh no, please…
I know I’m not invincible,
But I thought I was all the same,
I know I’m not invincible,
But I thought I was…
Thought I was all the same.
Look what you've done you hopeless dreamer
Your poor little feet just take you where you've been
before
Run like the wind to get your own back
Look what you've done you've made me throw up on your
floor
We've lost our time no time
To tell you what I wanted to say
So sad, to bad, my dreamer
Look what you've done the hopeless the dreamers
Shot to the head there's nothing anyone can say
Look in my eyes and beg forgiveness
Look what you've done you've ruined everything we've made
We've lost our time, more time
To tell you, what I wanted to say
So sad, to bad, my dreamer
We've lost our time, no time,
To tell you what I wanted to say
You were, you were
know everything
We say no, but it doesn't mean a thing.
Follow, everything.
But we know, it doesn't mean a thing.
Come on! It's over.
Remember us when we're gone.
What have I done?
What am I doing here?
Can I have some?
But no one else can hear
That you love me,
Can you please read my mind,
I can’t help me,
In this never ending time
What have I done?
What am I doing here?
What have I done?
What am I doing here?
In a never ending mind,
I get tired, of mine,
You have never been so kind,
Now you can’t be mine
What have I been doing here?
Can I have some meaning?
Why can’t anybody hear?
My mind screaming
And I will strangle out the last
Remnants of the truth you past,
The last exit from your life.
You cannot waste away in here,
With all the promises I hear,
Every day until I die.
(chorus)
You keep hitting yourself where it hurts, the least.
And your skin goes red and it sinks, beneath.
And I've been sitting here alone,
The voices slur, the building moans,
All the pain locked in these walls.
We cannot waste away in here,
With all the tenderness I fear,
Everyday until I die.
(chorus)
You keep hitting yourself where it hurts, the least.
Everything is blind, the joke wears thin,
There’s nowhere else to hide,
Your sacred words begin to drown,
All reason out of our darkened bed
And everything you touch,
And everything you find,
And everything you feel,
And everything in kind
And everything you touch,
And everything you find,
And everything you feel,
And everything is blind
You want it for yourself,
To save your skin,
A private paradise,
We won’t go in
You watch it, you watch all grow tired,
You’re watching,
We make the same mistakes
As is it’s all my town,
There’s nowhere else to take,
It all comes round a bout,
Wasting all our hearts on something cold like this,
Makes me wish the fantasy was a badly written script
You want it for yourself,
To save your skin,
A private paradise,
We won’t go in
You want it for yourself,
To save your skin,
A private paradise,
We won’t go in
You watch it, you watch it all grow tired,
You need him,
You need him when the same old sun,
Keeps blinding your precious tiny mind
And everything you touch,
And everything you find,
And everything you feel,
And everything in kind,
And everything you touch,
And everything you find,
And everything you feel,
And everything is blind
You want it for yourself,
To save your skin,
A private paradise,
I’ve not met a soul,
Who has fallen so far,
Has fallen so far for me,
I have no control,
I don’t know where we are,
Or how this has come to be
Hold on, to me
Hold on…
Hold on to me,
Hold on…
You’re slipping,
You’re slipping away,
You’re slipping,
You’re slipping away
I’m loosing control,
I don’t know where we are,
We’re somewhere we shouldn’t be
And I can’t let a soul ,
who has fallen so far,
Fall if its not with me
I’ll hold on too,
I’ll hold on,
I’ll hold on too,
I’ll hold on
We’re slipping,
We’re slipping away,
We’re slipping,
We’re slipping away
And you’re slipping,
You’re slipping away,
And you’re slipping,
Purest eyes, your purest eyes
Can't see the things I see
Believe me when I pray to you
Before the dark consumes your soul
Come on you little fighters.
So you've got nothing to go on?
Just go on
Startled boy, you startled boy
Don't fear the things I see
Belive when I pray to you
Just let the world exhume your soul
So come on you little fighters
So you've nothing to go on?
Just gon, just go on
Come on you little fighters
They just want you to suffer
Wither
What was it you said?
I’ve got to hold someone?
Or even show a little love?
It’s plain to see,
The walls are closing in for you and me.
I cannot help it if I’m taking the wrong way?
I’m taking the wrong way down.
Remember what I said?
I’ve got to lean on someone.
So show a little love.
And you know what I meant?
You’ve got to show a little love before…
It’s plain to see,
The walls are closing in for you and me.
I cannot help it if I’m taking the wrong way?
I’m taking the wrong way down.
You’ve got to bring me round.
You’ve got to beat some sense back.
To show a little love.
So bring yourself around.
And take another shot,
When I’m down...
It’s plain to see,
The walls are closing in for you and me.
I cannot help it if I’m taking the wrong way…
You look like I've ripped out all that's left
I know those eyes
They're telling me we're dead
I can't. I cannot tell you why i adore you
I can never tell you why
You're feeling this
I've never seen you act so cruel
As cruel as i can be to you
I can't. I cannot tell you why i adore you
I can never tell you why
I let go of everything
I bet my life on the sweetest thing
Does it mean that much to you?
Tell me, it means that much to you?
I don't want to know
What burns the hell inside of you
I'm chasing pieces
The burning pieces of you
I don't want to know
What rules the life inside of you
I don't want to know
And what a wondrous thing,
You have found within,
And what a wondrous thing,
The pretty fools who sing
To a different tune,
The night would take them soon,
You only have to prey,
Forever and a day
And you must pity me,
I’m sure you’ll prey for me,
And you want to cradle me,
And you have my sympathy
And what a wretched thing,
You have found within,
You ever wondered why,
You’re leaving us to die
Keep signing to your tune,
The night will take you soon,
A tiny sacrifice,
For your private paradise
And you must pity me,
And I’m sure you’ll prey for me,
And you want to cradle me,
What you get, is settling for less than you deserve,
What you get, is an empty burnt out wreck to preserve
Dreaming of a different ending with a meaning,
But then I wake up, wake up
What you get, is never knowing when you can depend, on
What you get, is a brightly coloured wreck you can’t
defend from me,
Here’s something, here’s someone,
To take instead of you,
What a way to prove that you,
Need someone, need someone,
Half of which is you,
Half of which is you that you don’t want to loose
Here’s something, here’s someone,
To take instead of you,
What a way to prove that you,
Need someone, need someone,
Half of which is you,
Half of which is you that you don’t want to loose
Dreaming of a different ending with a meaning,
But then I wake up, wake up
Here’s something, here’s someone,
To take instead of you,
What a way to prove that you,
Need someone, need someone,
Half of which is you,
I fall apart, for no one,
I fall apart, for no one,
Cos I’ve been smart.
For too long,
Yeah I’ve been smart,
For too long
I was lying,
I pretend to live alone,
I was lying,
I pretend to face the end
And who knows,
Just how long,
And who knows,
How long
And I suppose,
I could be wrong,
Yeah I suppose,
I’m not that strong
I was lying,
I pretend to live alone,
I was lying,
I pretend to face the end
I was lying,
I pretend to live alone,
This is not what you,
This is not what you,
This is not what you,
Throw the day with me,
It is alright here, it is alright here,
Walk on and wish with me,
It’s alright here, it is alright
And I will long to be you,
Too long, too long to wait for,
Pieces don’t fit,
Aren’t fit to be you,
It’s gone, you’re gone, you’re gone
This is not what you,
This is not what you,
This is not what you,
This is not what you,
This is not what you,
This is not what you,
This is not what you,
Find another way, from me,
It’s all out there,
There’s nothing out there
And I will long to be you,
Too long, too long to wait for,
Pieces don’t fit,
Aren’t fit to reach you,
It’s gone, you’re gone, you’re gone
What is so wrong, am I taking too long,
From where you’re standing, from where I’m standing
You jumped far too soon,
You jumped far too soon
Is the difference showing, are you all knowing,
From where you’re standing, from where I’m standing
You jumped far too soon
So hold your last breath,
Its all you have left,
So hold your last breath,
Its all you have left
So nothing matters, does nothing matter,
From where your standing, from where I’m standing,
You jumped too soon, you jumped
So hold your last breath,
Its all you have left,
So hold your last breath,
Its all you have left
So hold your last breath,
Its all you have left,
So hold your last breath,
Its all you have left
Its getting hard,
Don’t tear this apart,
Its getting hard,
Don’t fall apart
Its getting hard,
Don’t tear this apart,
Its getting hard,
We're flying too low.
We're flying too low.
And trying to go far.
But finding it hard.
We've your vapour trails to follow, you home.
We're flying too fast.
We're flying too fast.
And finding, it won't last.
Count down with me,
Count down it down with me
There’s nothing you can do,
Wait with me,
There’s nothing you can do,
Wait with me
Take this dance with me
Count down with me,
Count it down with me
There’s nothing you can do,
Wait with me,
There’s nothing you can do,
Wait with me
Who do you think you are,
I won’t let you crawl that far,
Its too much to bare, to much to loose,
You don’t want these dead mans shoes
Cos I don’t want to hurt you,
No I don’t want to hurt you,
No I don’t want to hurt you,
Who do you think you are,
Who let you crawl this far,
Who stole your heart and killed the stars
You wont know who they are,
You won’t know who they are,
You won’t know who they are,
Cos I don’t want to hurt you,
No I don’t want to hurt you,
No I don’t want to hurt you,
Cos I don’t want to hurt you,
No I don’t want to hurt you,
No I don’t want to hurt you.
Ok, ? Up the room, too short to stand, too narrow to
sit, so what you think about that
Ah someone scratches the walls, but it doesn’t seem to
make any difference, but then that doesn’t matter
Because what you’ve made for me, ? ? Go on ?? You know
So I’m trapped in here for eternity so what you think
about that
So what do you think about that
No I don’t wanna hurt you,
No I don’t wanna hurt you,
No I don’t wanna hurt you,
No I don’t wanna hurt you,
No I don’t wanna hurt you,
*meow*
Its alright we are far from home,
Its alright to know we are alone,
Its alright if we think easy,
Its alight we should never have know
Yes I know I never said this was easy,
But I know I can make it alone,
Cos I know you will always be with me,
I’m waiting for
what am I waiting for?
There’s something more.
There's something more?
And what you said,
I think about what you said,
for evermore, evermore
And there's nothing else I can do
So I’m shouting this out for you
No there’s nothing else I can do
So I’m shouting this out for you
And I know you’ll never hear me
And I know there never will be
The world I always dreamed of
The world in which you are a part.
Keep on going
We keep on going
Relentlessly
Relentlessly.
And glowing
We keep on glowing
Hopelessly
Hopelessly.
And there's nothing else I can do
So I’m shouting this out for you
No there’s nothing else I can do
So I’m shouting this out for you
And I know you’ll never hear me
And I know there never will be
The world I always dreamed of
You can’t let go,
Although I beg you so,
Its simple fate,
Why must we wait
I do not know,
Why hurts you so,
Its simple fate,
Now its too late
I can’t live without it,
Its all we can be,
We’re dead and we love it,
Its just you and me
Its all gone down,
Without a sound,
Can’t let you down,
You’re never coming round
Its you and me,
Its you and me,
Its you and me
Cant live without it,
Its all we can be,
We’re dead and we love it,
Its just you and me
We can’t live without it,
Its all we can be,
We’re dead and we love it,
Its just you and me
We can’t live without it,
Its all we can be,
We’re dead and we love it,
Its just you and me
We can’t live without it,
Its all we can be,
We’re dead and we love it,
Its just you and me
We’re dead and we love it,
I was a stalker to your king,
While I am here, you can explain,
Its not my name.
I was in love with all it came,
No one can separate my pain.
Without someone, we are all waiting to go down,
Without someone, we need a needle to come round
We are jumping into nothing…
Without someone, we are all waiting to go down,
Without someone, we need a needle to come round
It's warm in here.
I see you.
Some over here.
And run me through.
You're so near,
But so long.
I won't fear
When you're gone.
You are too real.
Won't you stay.
I can almost feel.
And time stands still. Oh no.
A bitter pill, we know.
And never fill, this hole.
So, keep breathing.
Your soul is not leaving.
And it's not dark, we're made for this.
I won't give in.
I'm fighting until the end.
The state we're in?
I want it now and then.
And I wanted to know.
The suffer in your soul.
And the years run dry.
And I'll hold you tight.
I won't give in.
I'll dig down to the core.
The state we're in?
I love it more and more...
All I wanted to know,
Was the suffer in your soul.
And the years run dry.
And I'll hold you tight...
I’m turning the light on, oh no,
I’ve seen this all before,
I’m turning the light on, to go,
I cannot take much more,
Man in the mirror, oh no,
I’ve seen this face before,
Stare at the mirror…
Oh no, please…
I know I’m not invincible,
But I thought I was all the same,
I know I’m not invincible,
But I thought I was…
Thought I was all the same.
I know I’m not invincible,
But I thought I was all the same,
I know I’m not invincible,
But I thought I was…
Thought I was all the same.
I’m caught in a loop now, I hear,
The same thing everyday,
I’m caught in a loop now, I fear,
It never comes my way,
Singing the outro, they’re gone,
They’ve heard it all before,
But this is the last show,
Oh no, please…
I know I’m not invincible,
But I thought I was all the same,
I know I’m not invincible,
But I thought I was…
Won’t you sow,
Some light in here,
The faintest glow,
Is getting near
And I, I will light up your eyes,
I will light up your eyes,
I will light up your eyes,
I will light up your eyes
And I won’t go,
Until I see,
The faintest glow,
Is enough for me
Cos I, I will light up your eyes,
I will light up your eyes,
I will light up your eyes,
I will light up your eyes
I will light up your eyes,
I will light up your eyes,
I will light up your eyes,
I will light up your eyes
I will light up your eyes,
I will light up your eyes,
I will light up your eyes,
I want to know why you leapt up and drove off alone
I want to say, I'm gonna reach out and change my ways
Why did you leave me standing?
Why did you leave me?
I want to say, I'm gonna to reach out and change my ways
Tell me which way things will roll?
How could you leave me standing?
How could you leave me standing?
How could you leave me standing here?
Am I the last man standing here?
How could you leave me standing here?
You drove off and left me here (x2)
You drove off and left me standing alone
You left me standing alone...
How could you leave me standing?
How could you leave me standing here?
Am I the last man standing here?
If only you knew,
What I give to you,
Just get in my way,
I beg you to stay
But there goes the moment,
So I’ll start the decent,
And there goes the last chance,
To take, the last dance,
And there goes…
And I’ve been myself,
All by myself,
And I’ve seen you go,
And you’ll never know
So there goes the moment,
So I’ll start the decent,
And there goes the last chance,
To take the last dance,
So there goes the moment,
So I’ll start the decent,
And there goes the last chance,
To take the last dance,
I wanna say how much I need
just a break, a little break
I wanna say how much I need
just a taste, a little taste
I wanna go away and try
just to waste a little time
I wanna go away and find
a place for you and I
so we row
and row (x6)
I start a song from beating you
to the ground, to the ground
I find a laugh when no one makes a sound
not a single sound
so we row
and row (x6)
and we row
to the edge of the world
so we row
I've been up all night.
I've seen things that frighten me.
Tell me it's alright.
Tell me, you'll stay with me?
Keep dreaming, your soul is not leaving.
I've been awake all night.
Hoping you'll frighten me.
Keep me from shouting out this time.
I don't know why I'm still sat here waiting
One more my love, one more and I'll be up there
And you know, you know
Wich step is killing me
Someone pull me out of here
Someone pull me out
I don't know why I'm still down here fading
Keep it coming. I'll keep it coming to kill me
And you know, you know
Wich step is killing me
I don't know why I'm still here fading
Keep it coming. I'll keep it coming to kill me
Don't close your eyes, don't turn away. I'll reach for you
I don't want another way
I don't know why I'm still down here fading
I've been running around in circles,
Running into the ground.
3000 days remind me,
We've barely made a sound.
I just wanted to make you happy.
To light up your tired eyes.
3000 days remind me
We've barely found the time to,
Waste our precious lives.(X2)
You know I would make you wait for,
A one in a million chance?
All I can hear around me,
The sound of love that passed.
I just wanted to say I'm sorry,
To open my wasted eyes.
3000 days remind me,
We've barely found the time to,
I'd build a world for you
I'd do it all for you my love
I'd build a world for you
When it's over you'll see
What our world was meant to be
All the things what we have done
How could they be undone?
I'd build a world for you
I'd do it all for you my love
I'd build a world for you
The awful things I've done to you
They cannot be undone
I'd build a world for you
(when it's over I will show you)
I'd do it all for you my love
(when it's over you will know)
I'd build a world for you
So build a world for me
(when it's over I will show you)
So build a world for me
(when it's over you will know)
There's no precious time to be my love
Don’t look for the sunrise, anytime,
Don’t look for the sunrise, anytime,
Soon
I hold you tighter every night
And I never let you out of sight,
In your life, not once in your life
Not once in your life
Don’t look to the city, anytime,
Don’t run to the city, anytime,
Soon
I hold you tighter every night,
And I never let you out of sight,
In your life, not once in your life,
Not once in your life
I hold you tighter every night,
And I never let you, out of sight
I hold you tighter every night,
And I never let you, out of sight,
In your life, not once in your life,
I don't know why
You say the things you do
Broken and down
I'm still in love with you
You never meant to play
You never meant
Cause I am just one step away
And are you one more step away?
Cause I am just one step away
I'm just one step away
I never meant to play
I never meant to
I'm never gonna find you
I'm never gonna find you
You never meant to play
You never meant
Cause I am just one step away
And are you one more step away?
Cause I am just one step away
I'm just one step away
And I don't know how
I live without you
How can you leave me in suspense,
Watching me squirm,
Why does it always make no sense,
So take it easy on me, take it easy on me
Look at me now, I am freezing without you,
Look at me now, I am pleading to,
Warm me, warm me
How can you leave me on my own,
Fading away, everything needs to find a home,
So take it easy on me,
Look at me now, I am freezing without you,
Look at me now, I am pleading to,
Warm me, warm me
Look at me now, I am freezing without you,
Look at me now, I am pleading to,
Warm me, warm
Look at me now, I am freezing without you,
Look at me now, I am pleading to,
Warm me, warm me
Look at me now,
Take a look at me now,
Take a look at me now,
It’s not the same.
It’s not the same any more.
You protected me.
I wouldn’t ask for more.
A 1000 miles,
Of crawling to your door.
I’m gonna find out what’s in your head.
And yeah, I’m gonna find out what’s in your head.
We’re not the same.
We’re not the same anymore.
Your suicide,
Has washed up at my door.
I’m gonna find out what’s in your head.
And yeah, I’m gonna find out what’s in your head.
We’re not the same anymore.
And yeah, I’m gonna scratch out what’s in your head.
Save yourself,
Save yourself,
Well I think that’s what you said.
Save yourself,
Save yourself,
Save yourself,
Well I think that’s what you said.
Save yourself,
Well I think that’s what you said,
Save yourself,
Well I think that’s what you said,
Save yourself,
And all our worlds subside
With everything inside
And always wonder why (we carry on)
And always wonder why (we sing this song)
And always wonder why (we carry on)
And always wonder why (now you are gone)
We'll carry on
We'll sing this song
So wonder if there’s anything left in your one horse
town,
I wonder you’d get if I never was around,
Don’t you know we love you,
We love you
I’ve given you all my heart in this one horse town,
I should thank your lucky stars, thank them you were
found,
Cos you know we love you,
We love you
Oh I know you must be frightened in this one horse
town,
Come into my arms and kiss this sacred ground,
Don’t you know we love you,
We love you
I need your soul,
I need your soul,
To feed my world,
To feed my world
Don’t you know we love you
I need your soul,
I need your soul,
To feed our world,
To feed our world
We need your soul,
We need your soul,
To feed our world,
To feed our world
We need your soul,
We need your soul,
To feed our world,
To feed our world
We need your soul,
We need your soul,
To feed our world,
To feed our world
We need your soul,
You watch the world turn grey with you,
You let it get away,
And once the world belonged to you,
They’ve taken it away
I won’t leave you here,
I won’t leave you here,
I won’t loose you,
I wont’ loose you,
I won’t loose you,
I won’t loose you
Don’t let the sun go down on you,
There is another way,
So yesterday belonged today,
You have another day
I won’t leave you here,
I won’t leave you here,
I won’t loose you,
I won’t loose you,
I won’t loose you,
I won’t loose you
I won’t leave you here,
I won’t leave you here,
I won’t loose you,
I won’t loose you,
I won’t loose you,
Alone and still,
And barely breathing,
I lie awake and watch you dreaming.
I hold you close as if to reason,
With all the years, I wish I knew...
I never said enough to make it up to you
I barely gave enough to you to make it through.
I never said enough to you my love.
I lie awake
And all I see is,
The way we lay,
On golden beaches.
The deepest eyes,
They couldn't see that,
The world would fade.
I know, I couldn't,
Even say enough to make it up to you.
I barely gave enough for you to make it through.
I never gave enough to you my love.
I never said enough to you my love.
I lie awake and watch you dreaming,
Alone and still,
I’ve got a wretched soul,
It’ll turn its head and throttle you,
I got a wretched soul,
Its tearing at the heart of you
So don’t waste, time here,
Or show fear, or show,
You are afraid, there’s hell to pay,
There’s hell to pay, there’s hell to pay
I’ve got a wretched soul,
I let it get a hold of me,
I’ve got a wretched soul,
Its tearing at the heart of me
So don’t waste, time here,
Or show fear, or show,
You are afraid, there’s hell to pay,
There’s hell to pay, there’s hell to pay
So don’t waste, time here,
Or show fear, or show,
You are afraid, there’s hell to pay,
There’s hell to pay, there’s hell
So don’t waste, time here,
Or show fear, or show,
You are afraid, there’s hell to pay,
There’s hell to pay, there’s hell to pay
So don’t waste, time here,
Or show fear, or show,
You are afraid, there’s hell to pay,
I wish I gave a better answer,
Before the rot set it,
Learn to crawl a little faster,
When it mattered to me.
I wish I thought a little harder,
To the make mess I’m in,
Learned to crawl a little further,
When there was someone within.
I wish I gave a better answer
I wish I gave a better answer
I wish I gave a better answer (repeated, fading answer)
I wish I gave a better answer (repeated, fading answer)
I wish I gave a better answer (repeated, fading answer)
I wish I gave a better answer (repeated, fading answer)
And finally into our world
Do you know what
You let yourself in for
And finally into our world
And God knows what
He let yourself in for
What have we sown, what have we sown
To shut your eyes until you flown
Wherever you are, wherever you are
I'll be with you
And you and me we are the same
Do you know what?
You let yourself in for
And you and me we are the same
And God knows what
He let yourself in for
What have we sown, what have we sown
To shut your eyes until you flown
Wherever you are, wherever you are
I'll be with you
What have we sown, what have we sown
To shut your eyes until they flown
Wherever you are, wherever you are
I can't remember what to do, to ease the pain.
Why am I writing this for you when it's all in vain?
I'm doing all I can.
But all I get, is a suicidal plan.
And I will listen all I can
And I will try to understand.
One fine day,
Shattered by the parting of the two of us.
Fade away,
Into the unknown fate that was made for us.
And I know what it takes to be here.
You'll never make it, without fear.
One fine day,
Shattered by the death of the two of us.
Walk away, into the light where you put your trust.
And I never worshiped the right part of you.
You work, I wait, I lay, awake,
You only make, one sound, I fake,
This time, you lie your face away from mine
It never happened, its ok,
It’ll turn around one day,
We never saw him, its alright,
And thank the lord he cannot fight.
The time, has come, the end, has won,
No chance to walk, no point to talk,
This time, I turn away from waiting in line.
It never happened, its ok,
It’ll turn around one day,
We never saw him, its alright,
And thank the lord he cannot fight.
Never regret the pain, never once,
Never forget the pain, never once,
Oh what a special day, only once,
Never forget that day, before he leaves
It never happened, its ok,
It’ll turn around one day,
We never saw him, its alright,
I want to say no more,
Stop messing with my head,
Stop messing with my head.
And through the open door,
They’re swarming around my head,
They’re swarming around my head.
I want to say no more,
What’s stopping me? You said.
And picking at my skin,
And burrowing within,
They’re burrowing within.
And throttling my soul,
They will not let me go,
They will not let me go.
And through the open door,
Come swarm around my head,
Come swarm around my head...
Look into my eyes.
I want to say I will
I want to say I will.
I look into your eyes.
Oh so very still
Oh so very still.
I want to say no more.
You know I always will
We’re closer now to daybreak
Don’t worry, don’t worry,
Further from the heat wave,
Don’t worry, don’t worry
I’m crying at the rain clouds,
Don’t burn me, don’t burn me, don’t hurt me
I’m crawling through the dark crowds,
Don’t watch me, don’t watch me, don’t watch me,
Watch me, watch me
We’re near the hour of daybreak,
Don’t worry, don’t worry,
Don’t fall apart, forsake what we worked for,
What we worked for
I’m crying at the rain clouds,
Don’t burn me, don’t burn me, don’t hurt me
I’m crawling through the dark crowds,
Don’t watch me, don’t watch me, don’t watch me,
Watch me, watch me
Don’t fall apart, don’t fall,
Don’t fall apart, don’t fall,
Don’t fall apart, don’t fall,
Don’t fall apart, don’t fall,
Apart, apart, apart
I’m crying at the rain clouds,
Don’t burn me, don’t burn me, don’t burn me
I’m crawling through the dark crowds,
Don’t watch me, don’t watch me, don’t watch me,
We’re tightly wove for all its worth
We’re tightly wound from our birth
The cuts in you, the cuts in me
Worth the price I’d pay to be?
The one whose taking all your life
The one who keeps your world alive
One more soul to fall apart
One more soul to break my heart
You’re the one who drives the knife through
that’s what I said, yes that’s what I said
You’re the one who drives the knife through
that’s what I said, yes that’s what I said
The one who’s lost a beating heart
The one who’s life is ripped apart
One who hold my bleeding hand
The one without you will not stand
One more move before you go
There’s one more thing you have to know
I’m lost with you, you’re lost with me
There’s nowhere else we’d need to be
I’m the one who drives the knife through
that’s what I said, yes that’s what I said
I’m the one who drives the knife through
We grow older, older
A little closer, a little closer
And you stay, fallen, fallen
And its too late, its too late, now
Here’s my debt to you
I wanted to say I breath for you
But you are a world away, a world away
Left in the same walls, the same walls
Can you see them, can you see them
Left on long wall, long wall
They didn’t need to, they didn’t need to, for me
So here’s my debt to you,
I wanted to say I breath for you,
But you are a world away, a world away
So here’s my debt to you,
I wanted to say I live for you,
But you are a world away, a world away
And I grow older, older
A little closer, a little closer
Yeah, it was me.
I give you nothing at best to hold on to.
You said you had enough?
So you said? So you said...
It’s never felt so right.
But I am telling you to run for your life.
Just stay with me tonight?
And I will bury you.
Along with our lives.
Alright, it’s my fault.
I give you nothing at best to hold on to.
You said you had enough?
So you said? So you said...
Yeah, it was me.
Words go to sleep,
You’re flying around my head until I’ mad,
I cannot keep,
Your words, they simply slide away.
This is too late, I cannot write a word
Pain is in my head…in my head.
This is a love song about nothing,
Because there’s nothing in my head,
Another love song made for nothing,
So can I close my eyes instead.
This is too late, I cannot write a word,
Pain’s my head,
Keeps telling me to go,
Go back to sleep,
I cannot face the world,
Go back to sleep…to sleep…to sleep.
This is too late, I cannot write a word,
Pain’s my head,
Keeps telling me to go,
Go back to sleep,
I cannot face the world,
Little man, you are the brother now,
I’d speak with you, if only I knew how,
Cos little man you are the brother now
There was no warning sign,
The wounds won’t heal in time,
There’s nowhere we will go,
Without you, you know
In my dreams, you have your mothers smile,
Even though we touched for just a while,
All my life you’ll have your mothers smile,
There was no warning sign,
The wounds won’t heal in time,
There’s nowhere we will go,
Without you, you know
There was no warning sign,
The wounds won’t heal in time,
There’s nowhere we will go,
You left her when she needs the most.
You're making her the whipping post.
Tend to yourself, you are afraid.
Frightened you won't make the grade.
(chorus)
Judge the girl, she did wrong.
Live in fear from everyone.
Is this the way you're meant to be?
Destroying lives you cannot see?
Are these the actions he would preach?
You're out of touch and out of reach.
(chorus)
Judge the girl, she did wrong.
I know
We'll go
On with our lives.
But you'll go
And we know
There's no other side.
(don't make this hard on me)
Don't make this hard,
Or we'll fall apart,
Sooner or Later
And right from the start,
We knew we would part,
Sooner or Later
And still,
We will,
Try to be strong.
A reason,
Just a reason,
To finish this song.
