LYRICS

GRADUATION

There's no life without money
They say it makes the world go round
Cheap wine, like honey
Makes the medicine go down

A little pain, a little pleasure
People say they're both the same
It gets worse then gets better
Standing on the wing of a falling plane

It's just my graduation
From life's long education

Too much for too little
Makes me wonder why I try
There's no faith without fire
Looking for another sign

Stop now or keep going
No-one's gonna hand you your dreams
Knocked down i'm not slowing
Standing in the way of a speeding train

It's just my graduation
From life's long education

They line up to break your heart
And you don't know why
Kept going you tried so hard
They still tell you it's not good enough
Someday you'll shine

It's just my graduation
From life's long education

MIRRORS

This won’t be easy
Explaining to me
Why the mirror never lies

When I look forwards
And you look backwards
It’s a no win compromise

It's too much, too soon, too late to keep going
Too hard to pull the pin without knowing
Too big to handle, i’m going blind

No they’re never gonna stop
Never gonna stop
Trying to make you someone that you’re not
Someone that you’re not
They will make you question your reflection
Take it or leave it.....Don’t ever believe in the mirrors

Two sides to this coin
Two faces won’t join
Heads I win and tails you lose

When I look upwards
And you look downwards
Someone always has to choose

Which way to go, which side to keep standing
Too late to learn to fly when you’re landing
Too big to handle i’m going blind

No they’re never gonna stop
Never gonna stop
Trying to make you someone that you’re not
Someone that you’re not
They will make you question your reflection
Take it or leave it.....Don’t ever believe in the mirrors

Give it up.
Why don’t you give it up?

Its too much, too soon, too late to keep running
Too hard to pull the pin without knowing
Too big to handle i’m going blind

No they’re never gonna stop
Never gonna stop
Trying to make you someone that you’re not
Someone that you’re not
They will make you question your reflection
Take it or leave it.....Don’t ever believe in the mirrors

EXECUTIONER'S DAY

Waiting for the day
Blue eyes change their shade
Walking in step just to buy back the life that I'd sold
Stuck in the middle I don't know which way I should go

Show me the way
Show me the way from here
Tell me the truth
Tell me your hopes and fears
Give me a sign
Give me a sign to stay
Is this how it ends?
I'm just waiting for the executioners day

Praying for a change
New skies are here to stay
Building it up just to have something new I can break
Pushing you down just to see how much more you can take

Show me the way
Show me the way from here
Tell me the truth
Tell me your hopes and fears
Give me a sign
Give me a sign to stay
Is this how it ends?
I'm just waiting for the executioners day


SAINT ROUTINE

Close your eyes tell me what do you see
A stranger standing where a saint should be
Kill yourself so you don't feel pain
Let me break your heart all over again

And baby i'll tell ya
It makes me wonder

Why don't you run for your life
You know that something ain't right
Instead you find yourself
Believing in my perfect
Saint routine

I can see whats really going on inside
Not the kind to ever fantasize
Its fun to shake something oh so sure
Hard to stain something oh so pure

And baby i'll tell ya
It makes me wonder

Why don't you run for your life
You know that something ain't right
Instead you find yourself
Believing in my perfect
Saint routine

You're lost inside the silence, devoted to my cross
I take the heart your giving, you don't even feel the loss

Why don't you run for your life
You know that something ain't right
Instead you find yourself
Believing in my perfect
Saint routine


I'LL NEVER WRITE A LOVE SONG

Hey (hey) What did they say?
Is someone tryin'a tell you that i done wrong
I said Hey (hey) get out of my way
I told you I ain't gonna let it carry on
I ain't no prince for you
I told you that i'd never write a love song
I told you that i'd never put a collar on

So take (take)
Take another piece of me
It's so easy
It's so easy
Break (break)
Anything that you can see
Well if it's easy come
You know it's easy go (go)
I don't want it anymore
You're going crazy
You're going crazy
I told you that I'd never write a love song
Cos I wouldn't wanna sing it when it's all gone wrong

Last (chance) I've said it before
There's nothing you can say to make me come back
And I don't (dance) I'll say it once more
I'll never buy you flowers when i've been bad
You ain't invincible
I told you that i'd never write a love song
I never said i wouldn't put a foot wrong

So take (take)
Take another piece of me
It's so easy
It's so easy
Break (break)
Anything that you can see
Well if it's easy come
You know it's easy go (go)
I don't want it anymore
You're going crazy
You're going crazy
I told you that I'd never write a love song
Cos I wouldn't wanna sing it when it's all gone wrong

I told you that i'd never write a love song
I told you that i'd never put a collar on
I never said i wouldn't put a foot wrong
I told you that i'd never write a love song
