Things got on top of me
Became unrecognisable
I said the wrong things, made stupid mistakes
I almost made the call
They were always there to haunt me
They will remain a memory
The music on my skin is there
So that I won't repeat
[Chorus]
Now I've gone, now I've gone
I've gone so far away
Now I've gone and I'm not sure
What's left to say
The first few months weren't easy
The next few, didn't care
If I started to fall hard again
I kept myself in check
Every now and then I wonder
What's going through their heads
And then I close my eyes
And I put those thoughts to rest
[Chorus]
Stepping on, stepping on
Keeping on, keeping on
Suppressing memories that repeat, repeat on me
Stepping on, stepping on
Keeping on, keeping on
Suppressing memories that repeat, repeat, repeat
[Chorus]

Lies

We're being lied to in the daily papers
We're being lied to through our TV sets
We're being lied to by the radio stations
On social media and the internet
We're being lied to on a daily basis
Every week, every month and every year
Stories being spun for entertainment
Votes being won based off our fears
What's true anymore? X2
There's 2 sides to every story
I don't know which to believe
Good or bad or equally useless
This is all too much for me
Am I a nuisance to be neutral
Because I don't want to be left or right
We're being lied to to cause a commotion
We're being lied to start a fight
What's true anymore? X4
Save me all your bullshit
Because I don't want to hear it
So save me all your bullshit
I'm not going to listen
We're being lied to
We're being lied to...
What's true anymore? X4

My Mind (Time)
02:45
|

I keep overthinking about things I haven't even done yet
My brain keeps overheating from the stress
My stomach turns and my chest seizes up, I leave teeth marks on my hands
It will be another sleepless night again
There's no way I'm calming down
I've lost control, I'm freaking out
I'm not the same man that I was the other day
I feel helpless, without hope
How do other people cope?
Am I weak? Am I worthless? Who am I?
I keep overthinking about how I could have done things better
I could have avoided all this in the first place
Different scenarios keep running through my mind
I could kick myself for ending up in this state
But I can't turn back the clock
Or flick a switch and turn this off
I think my mind must have a mind of its own
I'm about to hit the floor
I've never been this bad before
I might be older but I still don't think I've grown
All I need is time so that I can see
What is happening deep inside of me
I hope this is not how it's always going to be
All we need is time so we can see
With open eyes and so clearly
That this is not how it's always going to be
All we need is time
All we need is time
Yes this is not how it's always going to be
How it's always going to be

Stick It In The Water

There was once a young boy sitting by the lake
Wondering how much hard work it would take
And an old man sat beside him and gave the boy a coin
He said "these are all your troubles, son. This is what you do.."
[Chorus]
Stick it in the water giving it all that
Giving it all that you can give
Stick it in the water giving it all that
Doing all that you can do to live
Stick it in the water giving it all that
Giving it all that you can give
Stick it in the water
The boy became a spotty teen and had muddled his way through
Then his best friend asks him what to do
So he took his friend down to the lake and handed him a coin
He said "these are all your troubles, mate. This is what you do.."
[Chorus]
I don't know what you've been told
But there's a place where we can go to ease the pain
I don't know what you've been told
But there's a place where we can go and throw it all away
[Chorus]

Wasted Life

Benny had a problem
Could never get to school on time
Other days he'll be bunking off
Devoting them to joints and crime
Him and his mate Jamie
Went to hold up a local corner shop
The owner was a tough guy too
And thought he'd have a pop
And the bullet got Benny
And took him to the floor
And then Jamie quickly legged it
What a wasted life!
Suzie had a black
A present for her slow week
So she put on some extra make up
Then went back out on the street
It was business as usual
In the backseat of a car
She was doing all the specials
But she didn't get very far
And the blade drew blood
Over her entire body
Which was left in a shallow grave
What a wasted life
Everyone lives and everyone dies
But some people end up living much shorter lives

Through It All

Do you remember when we were jamming
When we had free time back in school?
We'd play some songs and do our own thing
Way down in the music room
There were those who didn't get me
Thought I was weird and called me names
but with you it was so easy
The music flowed as we played
[Chorus]
And when we're talking away something springs to life in me
Where would I be if you weren't here anymore?
So believe me when I say that I'm thankful everyday
That you've been there for me through it all
I used to have low self esteem
And I guess that I still do
But all those kind of thoughts just fade away
Every time that I'd hang with you
We would make each other die of laughter
Sometimes from nothing much at all
And I could count on you to raise me up
When I was the lowest of the low
[Chorus]
Good friends will always be there
My family have always been there for me X3
Good friends will always be there
Be there for me
[Chorus] X2
