if there is innocence here, let me capture it now
cos there is nothing sincere about the people i've found
i wanna sit in the dark and watch the moment you know
that this cage for your heart can artificially glow
she's the girl that couldn't help
but see the world like no-one else
don't you go steal a kiss, when you could rightfully buy
a better feeling than this, consume yourself til you die
oh it's so comforting to have a voice in my head
saying imagine the things that you have already said
she's the girl that couldn't help
but see the world like no-one else
she defies and she defines the mess i'm in
every time i start to sink

Cauterise

pick up the phone, hurry and call the ambulance
not for an injury, but for the confidence
she's begging me to talk, not to evade the light
no i'm not scared at all, i'm only petrified
that i'm getting old
cauterise
cauterise
i think the act is an overreaction
like some re-assured notion that we're expected by
if given choice, not when the cells are low and far
what makes a man makes a mess of a working heart
a ticking bomb
cauterise
cauterise
as you collected your thoughts, saving all your worth
did you detect the thought that you had missed a verse?
cos when you sleep with an old AM radio, guess all you need is one
and that's enough to know

The Next Best Thing

called in to see if you still catastrophise
if I make it worse, at least it passes time
shot the drinking bird, told the news to her
don't you love the sound, hailstones on the ground
if I called it what it was, you'd never have to know me
so I guess we'll call it love in conversation only
called in to see, but all I am yet to find
is you, thinking of those cold hard dollar signs
don't expect no grace from your guarded face
left the pharmacy, "just don't let it be for long"
if I called it what it was, you'd never have to know me
so I guess we'll call it love in conversation only
and I wait for something holy
so go right ahead and show me

Colour Between The Lines

i could have lied there forever
curtains open to the weather
and i'm only sleeping through headphones
should have had things done by tuesday
shoulders tense and hard like the rain
pour, pour, down on all the downhearted
it's the first night that i've felt this way
if it could stay
fall, i wont stop you
you wore my heart out
and got confused
pillow bent and shaped to my head
full up, stress and worry and death
i'll keep lights on writing a slow song
but it sounds like everything i ever wrote
played over and over
fall, i wont stop you
you wore my heart out
and got confused
i could have lied there forever
curtains open to the weather
and i'm only sleeping through headphones

Wolves

every lady and every gent,
raise your glass and repent.
kia kaha to burnt out flames,
i'll close my eyes and start again.
ooh, i never figured it out.
ooh, the wolves in the wild will howl
for my taste on the radio tonight.
got a new light and it's almost a friend,
it's full of warmth and love and halogen.
kia ora to all the pain,
i'm incandescent and working for change.
ooh, i never figured it out.
ooh, the wolves in the wild will howl
for my taste on the radio tonight.
in a house made of bricks,
i still let you in.
and the pot on the stove where you famously dove,
hadn't been on the boil too long.
so i gave you a towel and together we howled,
for a year we were lost in that song.
but i still let you in.
yeah i still let you in.
i still let you in.
i still let you in.
