Dusk Dances 04:57
He'd be there every night when we'd leave He'd hold his paper under a patch quilt sleeve Defensive position, head down, feet ahead To the world he might as well already be dead He drinks in the lights, never says a word Nods at the bottles, no words are ever slurred Nostrovia to the table, whispered and slow A pauper in a pool room, once a king in the snow There's a Silhouette Dancing in the Dusk It does a pirouette And fades into the dust A handful thinks they know him well, to them he's a joke They never imagine him, alone at night time's stroke In a wine stained shirt, in a heavy soaked coat With a sob in his chest and an apology in his throat There's a Silhouette No prints in the snow It's time to pay the debt From 30 years ago There's a Silhouette Dancing in the Dusk It does a pirouette And fades into the dust He lives in dusk, Night's a single step away, Day was another place, the first dance of the ballet, He can still see her move, he sees her body sway As he carried her down, sobbing to the railway

Stay Away 03:46
You're out of touch You say too much Be a stranger, stay away from me Say c'est la vie Deny yourself Aspire yourself You're too good for her's what they'll say to you So adieu Stay away from me Stay away Stay away from me Stay away Voulez vous coucher is not my way I'd just be losing out Maybe you'll be good enough some day Today you're cut in doubt Life's a battle we all have to live So honey so should you We'll play the game but when it ends Your time is up, we're through Don't patronize me anymore I can't forget that feeling Maybe she is better than me Why look at me then hold her hand? Too late too meaningless Just walk on by me Take it from me To me you're not success Stay away from me Stay away Stay away from me Stay away Voulez vous coucher is not my way I'd just be losing out Maybe you'll be good enough some day Today you're cut in doubt Life's a battle we all have to live So honey so should you We'll play the game but when it ends Your time is up we're through Stay away from me stay away Stay away from me stay away Stay away from me stay away Stay away from me stay away

Deafodils 04:51
Deafodils I wont be there tonight I'll be falling around on my own I think this is it, I think you'll be fine Dont come and get me There will be no-one home Only a light and that cant be me I'm trouble, its why you follow Feel whatever this note instills While I try not to sound so hollow To all you pretty little deafodils You're my little honeysuckle And you feel that I dont care Sorry... I dont share. You're lying I say I rearrange the letters in my own damn name I could never be seen to Be that tame. I'm trouble, its why you follow Feel whatever this note instills While I try not to sound so hollow To all you pretty little deafodils

Fall Apart 03:40
Fall apart Fall apart please lets end this debate I once knew what i wanted to do My dreams have died but I’ll still see them through Losing face at a speed i can’t control No time to stop and when i do i overflow Please let me off this ride it's crushing my soul Caring too much is taking its toll Chorus Can't go back Now i know what i lack Step outside what are you afraid of? It’s raining now show me what you’re made of Fall apart does it have to end this way I’ll fall apart as you step on my face When we were young everything went our way We’ve said it all now there’s nothing left to say We’ll fall apart if we don’t change our ways I’ve seen your smile but you haven’t smiled in days It’s killing me to watch you lose your heart And we can’t agree so now we’ll fall apart
