The Road Less Travelled
04:50

|
There's no place like home
A home I've never known
Where all my fears and enemies are cast aside
No there's no place like home
I don't believe in God
But I worry at the thought
Of what's waiting for me when this weary world has given up
No I don't believe in God
Looking back I can't be certain where it went
Looking back I can't be sure of what it meant
On a road far less travelled, a road far less known
Would I be a different person, In a different world
It goes against my grain
We're all peasants once again
Nothing matters as I know I've made my choice
Oh it goes against my grain
Chorus x 1
There's no point in kicking dirt into my wounds
I don't think you realise who you're talking to
You can play it safe, you might know it all
But all I need is you to catch me when I fall into this world
Chorus x 2

Unspoken

I'm not much fond of being good
I use my efforts to avoid being what I should
And I know that you're doing this for me
Tryna help me be the person that I ought to be
Lift me up and let me fly
On your shoulders I will cry
'Nevermind' is on the stereo
And when I think I need a friend
Well it's you I need again
Take me where you know I need to go
I push the thoughts out of my head
Linger on a stare and over analyse instead
And sometimes I think it's built into my bones
Better left unspoken, better left alone
Chorus x 1
I'm not much good at being wrong
Admitting it's the hardest part of writing any song
Chorus x 2

These Four Walls
03:48
|
|||
|
I see that ivy climbing high
I fear it's time to say goodbye
And though my smile fails to ignite
I will delight in your demise
Here we go, I'm coming home
I'll ask my mother for another loan
And I said Daddy won't you help me so
These four walls are not my home
You're always there in my eyeline
You take my money, you waste my time
And while I pray to our devine
I say 'no more', I say 'I'll try'
Chorus x 1
You say some day, we'll have our own
We'll see each penny and where it goes
It may be dark, it may be cold
But we'll have somewhere we can call home
Chorus x 2

Mind Games
03:58

She waited many years afraid of what he'd said
His words like triggers ran around inside her head
Whispered to her late at night as she lay in bed
They said 'Listen to me, Lead or you'll be lead'
Is this the bitter sweet taste of your regret
Or is it everything you wish you'd ever said
You deserve just what you get, Roll up fast and place your bets
You can play it safe or put it all on red
So take a walk up to the brighter side of town
Set up camp and lay your head upon the ground
Count the stars and leave the mind games where you found them
You can listen to the light and see the sound
And so she fell into the deep end and she found
That despite the lack of air she never drowned
She pulled herself along until she found where she belonged
And learned to finally place her feet back on the ground
Chorus x 1
Instrumental
