'When We Get To The Bottom' By Paul Baggalby

You'll remember this day for the rest of your miserable life,
Because from now things will change but I don't know how you will survive,
I looked down from where I stood and my heart sank into a deep black hole,
There's no way to stop it so just lose all self control,

If we get to the bottom, lets get back to the top of the world,

So let's go to the party where everyone is playing the fool,
And drink the night away with no care for any of the rules,
I spoke to a man he said 'there's only one way to go',
'There's no way back to the top it's just something you need to know',


If we get to the bottom, lets get back to the top of the world,
When we get to the bottom, lets get back to the top of the world,
When we get to the bottom, there's no way back to the top of the world.

'Don't Wait For Me' by Paul Baggaley

Another night has passed and I still wait,
Untill tomorrow comes when I'll still break,
The world in two and my life in two,
I wish I could give the other half back to you,

Don't wait, Don't wait, Don't for me,

I got myself a gun and tried my luck,
But I just ended up with a bullet in my foot,
Now I can't run and I can't hide,
I feel like I'll be running my whole life from these vicious lies,

Don't wait, Don't wait, Don't for me,

I'm sat at home alone and I pray for you,
To return again and not be blue,
A heart I blew, a love in two,
I wish I could gain the other half back from you,

Don't wait, Don't wait, Don't for me.

'It's cold outside again' by Paul Baggaley

I used to wake up and smell your breath,
It used to be sweet when I'd stroke your hair,

But it's ok, because I still get to see your face,
I still get to see your face,

But it's not ok,
It's not ok to see you cry,

And it's cold outside again but I'll just warm myself,
You won't see me cry I guess but I still need your help,

But it's ok, because I still get to see your face,
I still get to see your face,

But it's not ok,
It's not ok to see you cry,

But this just isn't right,
It isn't how how we're supposed to spend our time,
I fucking tore it up and set fire to our lives,
Because this just isn't right,

Now I still get to see your face,
I still get to see your face,

But it's not enough,
It will never be enough, to get me through.

'Sad Lullaby' by Paul Baggaley

Why has everything,
Turned to stone,
I have never,
Felt so alone,

There is a weight over me,
I had it all and now I can't see,

But who will sing a sad lullaby,
For this child who knows he cannot die,
So he sings himself to sleep,
Without a tear, no not a single weep,

There's so many people,
In this room,
Among all the faces,
Mine is alone,

There is a weight over me,
I had it all and now I can't see,

But who will sing a sad lullaby,
For this child who knows he cannot die,
So he sings himself to sleep,
Without a tear, no not a single weep,

With every step I'll take 17 back,
And now the past is the begining,
There's no further I can can go back,
With every step I take 17 back.

'It's Cool, We Can Still Be Friends' by Bright Eyes

(Not my words, but I like them alot)

Yeah, you still kiss me, but it's just on the cheek
Yeah, you still kiss me, but it's just on the cheek
Yeah, you still kiss me sometimes, but it's just on the cheek
You pull away so easily

And I still call you, but I get your machine
And I still call you, but I get your machine
And if I'm lucky I guess, I get your roommate answering
But you're at the bar, or at Gene's

And we go to dinner, but you won't hold my hand
We sit at the same table, but we don't play with our feet
Yeah, we still go to dinner sometimes, but we don't sneak a kiss
When the waitress turns around

And we still watch movies, but we don't share the couch
And we still rent movies, but we don't share the couch
Yeah, we still watch movies sometimes, but you don't lay in my lap
The plot is slow, take a nap

And you even stay over, but now we stay in our clothes
Yeah, you'll even sleep over, but now we stay in our clothes
Yeah, you even sleep over sometimes, but we stay in our clothes
I'm only there so that you're not alone

And you say that I hurt you, in a voice like a prayer
Yeah, you say that I've hurt you, and your voice is like a prayer
Yeah, well maybe I hurt you sometimes, but let's contrast and compare
Lift up your shirt, the wound isn't there

I guess that your truth, is just the ghost of your lies
I guess your kind of truth, is just the ghost of your lies
Yeah, your kind of truth, darling, is just the ghost of your lies
I see through them all the time
So I'm pouring some whiskey, I'm gonna get drunk
Yeah, I'm pouring myself some whiskey, I'm going to get really fucking drunk
I'm pouring some whiskey right now, I'm going to get so, so drunk
That I pass out, forget your face, by the time I wake up.

'RSVP' by Paul Baggaley

We are gathered here to celebrate,
The life that we have lost and put away,
Now it’s all that I can see through the flowers and the trees,
I hear the soil say ‘this is where you now lay

So RSVP to my death march.

So don’t be afraid when you hear yourself say,
I’m safe in the dark in my own special way

So RSVP to my death march,
RSVP to my death march.

Father and son are tied together,
By the barrel of a gun,
You can try and you can try,
But you’ll never win the fight.

'Dead in Paris' by Paul Baggaley

It’s late in the evening and I’m still alone,
I look through the window at world moving below,
My thoughts turn to you now and wonder how you are,
Are you still in Paris or have you moved with the stars.

But I know,
It all ends so much faster than you’d ever know.
I couldn’t say,
A single word to you to stop this again.

I sit in the dark now awaiting your call,
And I know you have left so the phone won’t ring at all,
Never thought you could hate us the way that you did,
You ruined the surprise now and took away my only gift.

But I know,
It all ends so much faster than you’d ever know.
I couldn’t say,
A single word to you to stop this again.

Life as we know is a lesson we learn,
Just to take slowly or regret as you burn,
And as the memory fades,
I need you to know I suffer more everyday.

'Lost' by Paul Baggaley

I’m lost at sea,
I’m drowning in my own well of misery,
My boat’s capsized,
And I am the captain that’s choosing to die.

We’re going down so fast now,
I’m not coming home for long now.

But all we have is one last chance to make it out while we can,
And now all we have is one lost chance to make it out while we can.

I can feel,
My last train roll home as I’m left by the wheels,
A scream, love breaks,
So we all fall down as we made one last mistake.

We’re going down so fast now,
I’m not coming home for long now.

But all we have is one last chance to make it out while we can,
And now all we have is one lost chance to make it out while we can.

'All I Never Wanted' by Paul Baggaley

Can we please get this off our chests,
Before I explode into dust,
She turned to me and said ‘It needs to be this way’,
No matter how I tried I had no words to say.

Just stay for me, I never wanted this to end.

So if death is the end then I’m sure I’ve lost,
And I can’t pretend that I’ve forgot,
The words I heard now ‘Everything must be this way’,
And this to not to end my days.

Just stay for me, I never wanted this to end.

We are here and we see,
We are here so we speak,
We are here and we see,
WE ARE HERE AND WE SEE,
WE ARE HERE AND WE SEE,
WE ARE HERE AND WE SEE.

'Glasshouse' by Paul Baggaley

When you live in a glasshouse you should throw those stones,
At your neighbours while they’re sleeping in their homes,
So one day you’ll get yours and I’ll certainly get mine,
Because what goes around will come back in style.

So take no chances and give it a second thought,
Take no chances and think what was lost before.

So board up the windows and lock all the doors,
This house is not a home and it wasn’t that before,
Your face is so familiar though I’m not quite sure,
But this road I’m walking has been walked many times before.

Now take no chances and give it a second thought,
Just take no chances at all and think what was lost before.
