Low Place Like Home You walked all over in your blunderstones In your own road movie with your one armed man Gonna make it to the problem page troubleshoot your life Gonna make it to the problem page need some time and space just to find yourself I hope you find yourself In a Low Place Like Home Low Place Like Home. You talked it over from your bedroom throne Making sense of nothing with your one armed man Read your future in the magazine search the stars for clues Read your future in the in the magazine tells you what to lose just to find yourself I hope you find yourself In a Low Place Like Home Low Place Like Home. You fall all over in your small town heels Catching hold of nothing like your one armed man Treat your life like a tragedy self-inflict abuse Treat your life like a tragedy precious else to choose crucify yourself I hope you find yourself In a Low Place Like Home Low Place Like Home.

Tie a cherry bootstring put your candy teeth in Choking on a loveheart hang up hang up hang up. Go on girls- solo Go on girls- take a chance Go on girls- trust it Go on girls- the truth is... Cut your hair wear a chip on your shoulder Get ahead get laid get it over Cheap show back seat martyr's pose-you're over and out. I'm checking out of my senses buying best defences Putting on the trousers hang up hang up hang up. Go on girls- solo Go on girls- take a chance Go on girls- trust it Go on girls- the truth is... So so... Single... So low... the truth is... You want the day to fit to a soundtrack Get a story get a life and get back You've got nothing to shout about- you're over and out. I'm checking out of my senses buying best defences Fired up on free will hang up hang up hang up Go on girls- solo Go on girls- take a chance Go on girls- trust it Go on girl- the truth is... So so... Single... So low... The truth is... [Back to head of page]
6 Underground Take me down 6 underground the ground beneath your feet Laid out low nothing to go nowhere a way to meet. I've got a head full of drought down here So far off losing out round here Overground watch this space I'm open to falling from grace Calm me down bring it round too way high off your street I can see like nothing else in me you're better than I wannabe. Don't think 'cos I understand I care Don't think 'cos I'm talking we're friends Overground watch this space I'm open to falling from grace. Talk me down safe and sound too strung up to sleep Wear me out scream and shout swear my time's never cheap. I fake my life like I've lived too much I take whatever you're given not enough Overground watch this space I'm open to falling from grace.

Close to something I'll never be. If I just stay here Close my eyes can you still see me? Obsolete very nearly something to see Still see me I can't wake up for sleeping Incomplete very nearly something to see See me there's a punishment needed Obsolete very nearly something to be Very nearly something to be. You can keep trying Drown in sleep to be flying See for miles something that I wanted to be I can't wake this dream prototype ends up has been Incomplete The consequence of something to be.

Unscrew the wine she'll throw a party line Stories extreme she's such a drama queen Cries through the night she choked on Marlboro lites Pure charm and grace she hates her pretty face She makes every move they make She takes everything they take She must be a Thelma and Louise She must be a post-modern sleaze. Straw spun from gold she craves a tortured soul All doom and gloom she plays an open wound She takes every scene they steal She fakes every pain they feel She must be a Thelma or Louise She must be a post-modern sleaze.

Waterbaby Your heart is served cold Your sights are set in perfect stone And when you go you go alone And when you stand you're on your own I wash the streets from your skin when you come home I wash the streets from your skin when you come home. We're nothing like friends You have no time to lend And if you're guilt then I'm the shame And if I'm hurt then you're the blame You wash my trace from your skin and you leave again You wash my trace from your skin and you leave again. Random laid plans 40 days of one night stands And when you go you go alone You walk the cross you made your own I wash the streets from your skin when you come home I wash the streets from your skin when you come home.

Roll up these doors are open Load up come next time Don't try to hurry me along Just walk ahead a little gone. Roll on roll off don't take that wrong. Roll on going down on me Roll off make it easy on me You can't think you're someone special on your knees We're throwing punches underwater Sink with me sink with me you're sinking with me. Roll on roll off something is sinking. [Back to head of page]
Wasted Early Sunday Morning You're not the sun it's just a light Waking early Sunday morning You're not my church it's just the bells Ringing sweetly through the house And in this sense of mine You're not an answer and I am not this prayer. You're still in reach I please myself Wasting early Sunday morning You're not my lead You're just my help Talk the edge off sheer denial And in this state of mine You're what I want nothing close to what I need. I breathe you in Suit yourself lose myself Breaking early Sunday morning You're not the sun you're not my church I still hold some self-control But in this sense of mine I'm still too high Look no hands. I breathe you in [Back to head of page]	Walking Zero Sacrifice my vanity kick off my heels A careless weight on your hatred Understand it's so simple a simple please To keep the faithful on a wounded knee To the madness I do confess I never see myself as blessed Confused unaddressed Like a saviour I do caress The truth is boredom more or less Unused obsessed My time is only given up to you Too much to choose It's not mine to contemplate if I can lose With this blood on my shoes. Compromise in full extreme cut off my heels Name a price on what's sacred. Guaranteed I've got something a royal disease Take a flood to clean these streets To the madness I do confess Forever see myself as blessed Immune obsessed Like a saviour I do caress The truth is boredom it's excess Take more give less My time is only given up to you too much to choose It's not mine to contemplate if I can lose With this blood on my shoes.

How Do Hey ho- who is this No one but me my dear Please come say how do The things I'll give to you A stroke as gentle as a feather Hey ho- I am here am I not young and fair Please come say how do The things I'll show to you Would you have a wondrous sight The midday sun at midnight Fair maid white and red Comb you smooth and stroke your hair.
