I'm sick and tired of these back street blues today I'm tight-rope walking in two-tonne shoes today Getting up ain't as fun as it ought to be It doesn't seem to work that way for me So hold my hand hand please Hold my hand please I look around and I don't know where I am The mirror shows a face that I don't understand I stumble down and land right on my knees I could get knocked over by the breeze So hold my hand please Hold my hand please Every day is just the same When I hold my head in my hands and I feel dazed No-one sees the wood for the trees Until the axe comes down and brings you to your knees So hold my hand please Hold my hand please Hold my hand please Hold my hand please

It's been a long time since you made a sound Since you laid me down Since you turned my world around It's been a long time It's been a long time since you came around Made my heartbeat pound With you hair all flowing down It's been a long time Ooo, it's been a long time Ooo, it's been a long time It's been a long time since I made you smile Since I drove you wild Oh Lord it's been a while Its been a long time It's been a long time since my blood ran cold With a lust for life And a fear of growing old It's been a long time Ooo, it's been a long time Ooo It's been a long time It's been a long time It's been a long time It's been a long time It's been a long time It's been a long time It's been a long time It's been a long time I've had a hard time trying to not feel cold When a cold wind blows And it chills you to the bone I've had a hard time I've had a hard time trying to replace you With the birds and the booze Right now anything thing will do I've had a hard time Ooo, I've had a hard time Ooo, I've had a hard time

Oxygen 03:12
I know you're around on the other side of town Every day, every day Summer's passed and I missed my chance And it eats away But my heart is breaking now And my food ain't staying down My oxygen's run out My oxygen's run out Have you grown, have you got old? I'd sure like to know Do you ever think of me and smile Or do I make you moan? Cos my heart is breaking now And my food ain't staying down My oxygen's run out My oxygen There's a song on my radio That simply isn't right All you need is love Is a lie Cos my heart is breaking now And my food ain't staying down My oxygen's run out My oxygen's run out My oxygen's run out My oxygen's run out My oxygen's run out My oxygen's run out

Lemonade 04:21
I don't see you much anymore I really hope you know it's not your fault No not at all It's amazing to me How days just fade away And time becomes a memory A memory Independence is the key But it's the luxury Of all the dreamers who are free They'll never taste the air we breathe They're too enticing, too lip-biting Too just be dull and lonely And lonely I used to be a young young boy but now I'm getting on There's a cold place where we're heading and we all go there alone And the mischief will kill me Before I'm dead and cold We used to play when it was hot With paper planes and daisy chains But now the rain don't never stop We used to lie out in the shade And when life gave us lemons We turned them into lemonade Into lemonade I used to be a young young boy but now I'm getting on There's a cold place where we're heading and we all go there alone And the mischief will kill me Before I'm dead and cold We used to lie out in the shade And when life gave us lemons We turned them into lemonade Into lemonade I used to be a young young boy but now I'm getting on There's a cold place where we're heading and we all go there alone And the mischief will kill me Before I'm dead and cold Before I'm dead and cold Before I'm dead and cold Before I'm dead and cold

Jack 'n Jill 04:04
Oh Lord It's been a long while since I spoke to you I've had a hell of a time if you know what I mean And I'm sure you do Demons and devils Have taken their toll just like you said they would But I just can't leave them alone And go to work on my soul like I know I should I come up for air, Man, I can't breathe My head goes down but I can't sleep Mother, I'm falling apart at the seams tonight If you could look at your son In the witching hour he would give you a fright I come up for air, Man, I can't breathe My head goes down but I can't sleep Oh Lord It's been a long while since I spoke to you I've had a hell of a time if you know what I mean And I'm sure you do Demons and devils Have taken their toll just like you said they would But I just can't leave them alone And go to work on my soul like I know I should I come up for air, Man, I can't breathe My head goes down but I can't sleep

You always knew this time though it caught you by surprise You packed your bags and left your home For the soul in someone's eyes Boy amongst the stars You never thought you'd come so far As you did today You'll make your mother proud If you can set alight this town In a million ways Oooo you're the boy amongst the stars Even though some things didn't seem to go your way Oooo you're the one who bears the scars And you're waiting for the time that they fade away You've worn your medals quite some time And they cannot touch you now But nothing stays the same forever Though it does in your small town Boy amongst the stars You never thought you'd come so far As you did today You'll make your mother proud If you can set alight this town In a million ways In a million ways In a million ways Oooo you're the boy amongst the stars Even though some things didn't seem to go your way Oooo you're the one who bears the scars And you're waiting for the time that they fade away Oooo you're the boy amongst the stars Even though some things didn't seem to go your way Oooo you're the one who bears the scars And you're waiting for the time that they fade away
