Problems

We were inseparable for all this time
But you've got your problems and I've got mine
They get in the way, change you and me
And now we act different to how we used to be

Deep at our core, we're almost the same
Which is why we drive each other insane
It's just a matter of sorting ourselves out
And to stop putting our friendship in doubt

We're heading down different paths it seems
But we have the same mindset, the same kinda dreams
We're too much alike to ever stop being friends
We fuck each other over but then make amends

Deep at our core, we're almost the same
Which is why we drive each other insane
It's just a matter of sorting ourselves out
And to stop putting our friendship in doubt

I guess all I'm trying to really say
I'd that I'm sorry me and you have turned out this way
We don't deserve the shit that we're going through
But let's not make it any worse, you help me and I'll help you

Deep at our core, we're almost the same
Which is why we drive each other insane
It's just a matter of sorting ourselves out
And to stop putting our friendship in doubt

Enjoy The Silence

I know you love me but I can't see why
I try to ask but I just start to cry
I'll say sorry for being a whiney fuck
You'll lean in to kiss me and tell me to shut up

I'll lie there and I won't feel a thing
You'll lie there and start to sing
I can't let go, not for one minute
I hate my head when I'm so lost in it

Cause your voice will always be my guide
For when I'm lost on the inside
Cause your voice will always be my guide
For when I'm lost on the inside

I need some air, so we go for a walk
We enjoy the silence, no need to talk
And I hope she knows how I feel inside
But I can't show love and I've really tried

So you'll lay me down and I won't feel a thing
And you'll lay down and start to sing

Cause your voice will always be my guide
For when I'm lost on the inside
And I'll love you more every single day
But you don't know that and I can't bring myself to say

Secret Reason to Smile

It hurts me more than she can ever know
But it seems there's just no letting go
I'm her secret reason to smile
That's how I've been living for a while

I know this is wrong
I can't take it anymore
So I'll say that I'm sorry
And you'll ask me "what for?"
"I'm sorry about the two of us
I should have told you before"

It hurts me more than you can know
So I ask you please just let go
I'll tell you now, we're both living in denial
If you think that I can be a reason to smile

I know this is wrong
I can't take it anymore
So I'll say that I'm sorry
And you'll ask me "what for?"
"I'm sorry about the two of us
I should have told you before"

I'm just another lover
No different from before
But I just can't help but feeling
That we could be something more
But every single part of me
Tells me that it's wrong
I think I've been a secret now
For far too long

Phosphenes

I just need a day or two to be alone
Need a couple of days without my phone
Can you hear me? I'm not leaving home
I don't wanna have to hear the world moan

I know I made plans but I'll just have to cancel
Yeah I know I made plans but they're too much to handle
I just wanna stay in bed all day
I just wanna sleep the day away

I can see the phosphenes from rubbing my eyes too long
Give it a couple of seconds and they'll soon be gone
I'll just lie back down, listen to a not so happy song
Cause you're right in that I'm always wrong

I know I made plans but I'll just have to cancel
I know I made plans but they're too much to handle
I just wanna stay in bed all day
I just wanna sleep the day away

Maybe tomorrow when I wake up
Alone and confused like a little lost pup
You'll call me and ask me what's up
I'll say I'm tired, that's all

Now I don't have any plans to cancel
I don't have anything to handle
I just stay in bed all day
And try to sleep my life away

Cup of Tea

I woke up about midday
You were hanging round, didn't know what to say
But you knew you were leaving, going at three
Told me you'd made me a cup of tea

You've moved on, doing things differently
I've not changed, still drinking my cup of tea

So I ate my toast and we talked it over
I drank my tea and felt more sober
We couldn't work it out so you left before three
Before I could offer you a cup of tea

You've moved on, doing things differently
I've not changed, still drinking my cup of tea

And now making tea just ain't the same
I still find myself calling your name
Telling you that our teas ready
For you to say you wanted coffee

Life's moved on, things move differently
A lot has changed, I don't even drink tea

Shut Down

Cause I hate myself but I hate you more
And those snide remarks when you slam the door
I can't help you out, if I don't know what you're looking for
I always used to help but not anymore

It's like you've shut yourself down
Turned off from the inside
And I don't know what to say
I've nowhere left to hide
It's like you've shut yourself down
Turned off from the inside
And I don't know what to say
I've nowhere left to hide

My feelings they, they tear me up
And I try to run but it's like I'm stuck
I can pretend that I don't give a fuck
Try to wish myself the best of luck

It's like you've shut yourself down
Turned off from the inside
And I don't know what to say
I've nowhere left to hide
It's like you've shut yourself down
Turned off from the inside
And I don't know what to say
I've nowhere left to hide

My luck paid off and I moved on
But I hate myself more now that you're gone
So I shut myself down, turned off from the inside
You didn't know what to say when I found your place to hide

Can You Speak English?

Nothing you say ever makes sense
It's like you're speaking in the future tense
Stuck in the middle, sat on the fence
Focusing in on the cracks and the dents

Cause you're words confuse me, delude me
They drive me insane
Can  you speak English?
Simple and plain
I don't know what's going on
Inside your brain
But I don't understand and
I can't take it today

You told me 'silence is the loudest scream'
I screamed 'I don't know what that fucking means'
You talk as if always in a dream
I guess I'll never know what you mean

Cause your words confuse me, delude me
They drive me insane
Can you speak English?
Simple and plain
I don't know what's going on
Inside your brain
But I don't understand and
I can't take it today

Try to speak with some logic in mind
Don't leave all trail of thought behind
There's a part of you that I'll never find
The accident left that part behind

Finally Kind of Over You

I can't talk to you when I'm stone cold sober
Cause you're the girl I never got over
You're like an old toy, one that I can't throw away
In the hope that you'll entertain me one day

You're like a headache, so strong I can't ignore
I'm sorry you're all I'm looking for
But no one else could give me anymore

I keep telling myself to let it all go
But I'm struggling and I just don't know
You make me feel different somehow on the inside
I'm still craving the love that you denied

You're like a headache, so strong I can't ignore
I'm sorry you're all I'm looking for
But no one else could give me anymore

I'm taking my painkillers to let it all go
And I'll call you up just to let you know
That I'm finally kind of over you
You're just one less thing I have to do

My headache is gone, you're easy to ignore
Not really what I was looking for
I think I deserve so much fucking more

Mistress Sleep You're A Slut

I'd be with you forever if I could
But Mistress Sleep you're a slut
Please be there when I wake up
Don't leave me like a lovesick fuck

Mistress Sleep is not kind to me
She plays with my head, invites me to bed
But when I'm there she doesn't care
Yeah Mistress Sleep you're a slut

You spend the night but in the morning you're gone
I know you out there with everyone
But I'm an addict and I need my fix
Mistress Sleep you give me my kicks

Mistress Sleep is not kind to me
She plays with my head, invites me to bed
But when I'm there she doesn't care
Yeah Mistress Sleep you're a slut

You keep me up every night
Trying to somehow make it right
I'm struggling to stay awake
Not sure how much shit I can take

Mistress Sleep has left me
She not in my head, nor in my bed
But I'm there and I care
That Mistress Sleep is a slut

Then She Called Herself A Loser Too

She called me a loser on the very first date
She told me she wasn't interested in being a mate
But the way she said those words
It kinda fucking hurt
Then she called herself a loser too

She said
"A loser by any other name
Would be just as lame
As you
You're a loser but I'm the same
Yeah, you're fucking lame
Me too"

She said "Let's be losers together"
She said "Let's be losers forever"
She told me that I'd never win
At fucking anything
She said "I'm a loser like you"

She said
"A loser by any other name
Would be just as lame
As you
You're a loser but I'm the same
Yeah, you're fucking lame
Me too"

Turns out she was right
She asked to stay the night
I let her stay
And the very next day
We began our loser life

She said
"A loser by any other name
Would be just as lame
As you
You're a loser but I'm the same
Yeah, you're fucking lame
Me too"

Leaves My Mouth Tasting Stale

Life isn't a fairy tale
It's more a nightmare
It leaves my mouth tasting stale
That no one seems to care
Your dreams of the future will all fail
Life takes away and leaves you nowhere
A revolutions started on a small scale
Sign up if you dare

We're sick of the way this whole world works
We live the same day without any perks
It doesn't feel right, it's just not for me
Conspiring at night when we should be free

It's just not for me
I reject this way of life
Can you not see
They live on the edge of a knife
You sit there smug and happy
With others in strife
We all should feel free
And worthy of a full life

We're sick of the way this whole world works
We live the same day without any perks
It doesn't feel right, it's just not for me
Conspiring at night when we should be free

What right have you got to live
When others must die
You have everything to give
Yet you just stand by
Help is a myth
And hope will soon die
You ask us to forgive
Fuck you, we won't even try
