The Stem and Leaf

We'll hit the town again, we'll hit the town You're not the only one to settle down You're looking fucking comfortable but you're looking gone You are the lonely one, so move it on. Where were you and your mezzanine? Become the man that you used to be Now we owe the difference to you Woe betide, Woe betide It's not a holiday, it's a break in two And for the life in me I just cannot see it in you You're singing from a carousel but it's out of time No longer running on the bell, two of a kind Where were you and your mezzanine? Become the man that you used to be Now we owe the difference to you Woe betide, Woe betide

Eyes awake too busy doing overtime Now I see what happens on the borderline But its the call out to someone on the day you almost died Your lifelines bold, no reason to be satisfied Nights draw in but it doesn't mean a thing to you A care free plan to qualify for a thank you But its the call out to someone when theres no-one to call home A sunrise slowly taking in the thunderbolt Forget these faces, it doesn't make a lot of sense When everyone's just wishing you all the best For its the tall ones above you who'll do anything to know Why you're shrinking underneath the microscope Show me, show me, show me how you do that trick When daylight comes you try to move away from it It's the call out to someone in the darkest candlelight Your lifelines bold, no reason to say goodnight And how i knew from just the way you joke, I'll never hold it over you But if I do, well there's a time to change, I'm having me an afterglow Eyes awake too busy doing overtime Now I see what happens on the borderline But its the call out to someone on the day you almost died Your lifelines bold, no reason to be satisfied

You cut a lonely face You’re doing me no good A simple line of fire from which you’ve understood From what you’ve left behind there’ll never be no clue What you’re about to find is beautiful and true But what is meant by a honeymoon? Check check now you’re in control Throw away the rubbish on your stereo Warm enough to hold the coldest of hearts Heaven knows a place for you you, that’s a start When I was a boy well I wanted to be like you, I wanted to be like you You could have an island, settle by the fire, burn away your minor light We could get along ok without each other, long enough to sleep tonight I couldn’t understand the fall out with your brother, families in harmony If it's bugging you inside just self address a letter

Time heals no careless evidence, I tried But you’ll forgive now so down deep inside And it’s hardly worth a listen Somehow fears are bound to find a setting sun You’ll have to ride the torment that’s begun, and it’s surely worth a listen “From today”, she said, “Waiting like this means I start to remember, what it feels to be afraid, won’t you stay? Because waiting like this means I start to remember.” Potions, pills, forever reminiscing time, There’s ways of searching so down deep inside And it’s hardly worth a listen Falling down, careless in your own sweet way Now don’t forget these words as you start to ache Because they’re always worth a listen Your campaign is just not enough There’s lies you can’t see so open your eyes now But your beat is your confidante So wise you can’t shake the moves
