Treacle

I know it seems like you’re wading through treacle
Look at all of these people
They don’t know how you feel
They don’t know how you feel
And vice versa
I can’t be there but I’m thinking of you always
Blue sky cold like bubblegum sorbet
What ever happened to the universe parallel
Where everything was all sweet, all caramel
Now you’re spinning on the carousel, mad as hell
Got me wandering what you’re gonna do like Annabel
Picture you in the kitchen no sleep getting
Despair crouching in the corner like a blunt weapon
This is the hardest time
The dark before the dawn in a Tardis mind, but
Rest assured in you’re heart’s design
There’s a method to the madness every part’s divine
Watch
We’ve been here before I think it’s time to leave
The past could never poison everything you’ve done
All of this will fade into obscurity
Only looking back to see how far we’ve come
[CHORUS]
Don’t look back on this
With regret I know it’s
Something that you’ll have to
Get your head around to
Don’t look back on this
With regret I know it’s
Something that you’ll have to
Get your head around
I know it seems like you’ll burst at the seams
Like the worst of your dreams picked you first for the team
And you’re only seeing half of the scene
Like all the action’s happening off screen
Know what I mean?
We spill guts and leave the viscera glistening
I don’t always know what to say but I’ll be listening
This’ll stay for a while but in the end
I see an end to the struggle
Wild flowers in the rubble
Always remember, time the great healer
The great fate sealer for demons that seem realer
In the night time but when the day breaks
We see ‘em off like they don’t exist
Flick of the wrist
When you lost that you still had this
And it’s amazing through all the madness
We’re finding new levels of love up in the sadness
We’re finding new levels of love up in the sadness
Yeah
We’ve been here before I think it’s time to leave
The past could never poison everything you’ve done
All of this will fade into obscurity
Only looking back to see how far we’ve come
[CHORUS]
It’s alright, it’s alright, it’s alright (repeat)

If you read the news today
You could be forgiven
For thinking there’s no hope
For all of the human kind
If this cynicism
And that superstition
Became your position
Maybe it’s not that much of a surprise
All the media drama
Keeps rolling
It’s like wearing a balaclava
With no holes in
And all the lines they feed us
When they bang on their little drums
Is making it feel like
Feel like no-one likes anyone
[CHORUS]
Are we people people?
Are we people people?
Are we people people?
I don’t really know if we’re people people
x2
It’s harder to find your way
When you’re deep in the shadows
And most of what’s illuminated
Is the worst of the human kind
If all that suspicion
Is clouding your vision
With no opposition
Maybe it takes a hold inside your mind
While the media drama
Keeps rolling
It’s like wearing a balaclava
With no holes in
And all the lines they feed us
Contain the danger
That we could get lost
We could get lost in this echo chamber
[CHORUS]
You dug me out of this hole
you dug me out of this
You dug me out of this hole
you dug me out of this
Yeah it took so long
It took so long
We can be people people
I can see people people
I bet you know people people
Everyone people people

Wasp In A Coke Can

Should I try and be someone else today?
No-one likes the sad face clown
Dig out a smile and put it on display
I don’t wanna bring you down
Feeling like a kid in a dad suit
Arrested development
You been taking aim but you won’t shoot
Am I just your white elephant?
Putting on a front what a way to start
yeah
But I never want you to know
I’m sort of falling apart
because
I’m the type of human
Who wants you to like me
Yeah, I’m the type of human
Who wants you to think that I’m okay
I would love to be one of those people
Who couldn’t give two shits about
What everybody else is thinking
But that could only be a pipe dream for me
Cos I only feel a bit like that when I’m drinking
Stuck like a wasp in a coke can
Agony and ecstasy
But I can still find my hope, man
If you’re standing next to me
Putting on a front but I’m losing heart
yeah
Still I never want you to know
I’m sort of falling apart because
I’m the type of human
Who wants you to like me
Yeah, I’m the type of human
Who wants you to think that I’m okay
I get up, to get down
I get in, I get out
I get high, I get low
Run my mouth
Make a scene
Waking up to a dream
Nothing is as it seems
Is it you, is it me?
I don’t know, I can’t see
Telling lies like the truth
In my eyes is the proof
I keep losing my youth
I’m a flea, I’m a fool
I’m the man, I’m the boss
I get lost
I get lost
I get lost
I get lost
I get lost
I get lost
I’m the type of human
Who wants you to like me
Yeah, I’m the type of human
Who wants you to think that I’m okay
I miss that man I tell you
Tear it off
I get lost in my memories
Still the talk
Is constantly haranguing me
I run my mouth make a scene
They’re watching
Is it you is it me?
I don’t know who to be

Trouble To Share
04:00
|
|||
I’ve been here on my Jack Jones
Steady waiting by the bat phone
Or getting lost in the red tones
Another world in my headphones
I keep thinking of the old you
And everything I could have told you
It never seemed to be the right time
Now it’s forgotten like a cold brew
And I’m getting worried about you
Cos I can’t tell if you’re telling me
The whole truth about
Everything that’s going on with you
Anyway
Call me up
If you’re feeling low
I not going nowhere
You got trouble to share
Call me up
Give me a piece of your mind
I’m never going nowhere
I’ve got nothing but time
So many people tryna kill time
I can’t believe it’s not dead yet
Are you filling in a crossword?
Or are you whittling a chess set?
How you dealing with the distance?
Are you hiding from your neighbours?
Only another ghost in a ghost town
28 Days later
And I’m getting worried about you
Cos I can’t tell if you’re telling me
The whole truth about
Everything that’s going on with you
Anyway
Call me up
If you’re feeling low
I not going nowhere
You got trouble to share
Call me up
Give me a piece of your mind
I’m never going nowhere
I’ve got nothing but time
I only wanna see you smile like you used to
I only wanna see you smile like you used to
I only wanna see you smile like you used to
I only wanna see you smile like you used to
