Apologies Thank you, good night Time I make my way Hey, I'm sorry Doesn't feel right Get the bill, I'll pay A scene Just like any  A one story town Is it true There's not many Who can tell how to get out What are you waiting for What are you waiting for Stale air of an echo chamber Don't feel like going home Just an empty refrigerator Chilling on my own A scene Just like any  A one story town Is it true There's not many Who can help me get out What are you waiting for What are you waiting for Look there's the back wall We're closing in A race against time that No one can win What are you waiting for What are you waiting for What are you waiting for What are you waiting for

Smile You're on tape Caught on my camera Here in my mind you're Forever on display Etched Like on glass It's there in my memory Time it will pass but you're Never far away Hold on tight You're in for quite a ride All I am Leads back to you My sliver of hope My bottom line A giver of hope A final sign All I am Because of you And all this time My sliver of hope Was you OCD Idiosyncrasies My own little ways ran Circles round me You might Not recall It's there we began A smile that is all It took to set me free All I am Leads back to you My sliver of hope My bottom line A giver of hope A final sign All I am Because of you And all this time My sliver of hope Was you How did we get here Well here's how you know We found ourselves something The whole world to show How did we get here and Where will we go One thing's for sure You should know All I am Leads back to you My sliver of hope My bottom line A giver of hope A final sign All I am Leads back to you My sliver of hope My bottom line A giver of hope A final sign All I am Because of you And all this time My sliver of hope Was you

Forward Hold your head up high Onwards Don't look back, don't try To turn 'round In ruins all we've known We've reached the end of the road We called our own How do you break your own heart (How do you break your heart) Stand down lay down your arms (How do you break your heart) Why do you tear apart Break your own heart Downhill We are on our way Keep still Don't fear come what may Don't turn 'round In ruins all we've known We've reached the end of the road We called our own How do you break your own heart (How do you break your heart) Stand down lay down your arms (How do you break your heart) Why do you tear apart Break your own heart What's left is your call I'm in for the long haul Our victory or our downfall How do you break your own heart Stand down lay down your arms How do you break your own heart (How do you break your heart) Stand down lay down your arms (How do you break your heart) Why do you tear apart Break your own heart

Mexico 03:06
Everyone's talking about Mexico It's like it's some kind of new Berlin Where unemployed artists go to Do some more hanging out and getting drunk and Everyone's in Mexico Everyone's talking about Mexico You really should come here one day Everyone's just like you, you'd love it I'm sure you'll do, it's just so great 'cause Everyone's in Mexico Mexico Mexico It's warmer there Glare of the sun blinds our eyes and hides Whatever we are running from I might not find her there Still worth a try, don't you think So I wave goodbye Everyone's asking about Mexico Did you know it's where they go And leave us here where the nights are cold Where the past is now just put on hold I have my doubts but Everyone's in Mexico It's warmer there Glare of the sun blinds our eyes and hides Whatever we are running from I might not find her there Still worth a try, don't you think So I wave goodbye I'm off to Mexico I'm off to Mexico Mexico I'm off to Mexico I'm off to Mexico Mexico I'm off to Mexico

Shut out the noise, sit back Make yourself comfy, relax We're back in the swing of things Don't you think? Seems like we're right on track It's finally looking up We're getting the hang of this Don't you think? This is a two coffee morning Sliding into control A two coffee morning Giving way To another fine day A two coffee morning Giving way To another fine day Nice how it flows Nice how it's shaping up We'll get a feel for this Don't you think? This is a two coffee morning Sliding into control A two coffee morning Giving way To another fine day This is a two coffee morning Sliding into control A two coffee morning Giving way To another fine day A two coffee morning Giving way To another fine day

Fresh as a daisy A little wet behind the ears And still one card up your sleeve Isn't it amazing How we're spinning through the years While time its web will weave Hello hello hey Hello please tell him I said hello You can call me crazy A little dumb but you will see I'm not like you a bit naive When my eyes start glazing Hold my hand and let me be I've still one card up my sleeve Hello hello hey Hello please tell him I said hello Hello hello hey Hello please tell him I said hello Hello hello hey Hello please tell him I said hello

Blow me over like a feather Don't wait for a finer lover Or warmer weather This is as good as it gets Show me there where it just won't matter That the days are short Where your dreams don't shatter This is as good as it gets This is as good as it gets This is as good as it gets
