what's the plan
what was said
what was meant
when you said to me
we're going for the weekend
no you don't
no you can't
understand
what it meant to me
just one more chance to see them
(prechorus)
lovers recover
but never discover
what's wrong with me
what's wrong with me
lovers discover
but never uncover
what's wrong with me?
could be just a little while when
(chorus)
it's sunday
it's the weekend
time better spent off
with your best friend
it's sunday
it's the weekend
time better spent drunk
with your best friend
make a plan
while you can
tell them to get away from me
i'm pulling for the weekend
no you don't
no you can't
understand
everything i see
so down your drink to meet me
(prechorus)
(chorus)
(bridge)
and i'll admit i'm holding on
everybody's holding on
to the hope of one more song
everybody's holding on
and this has gone for far too long
this is going far too long
we'll fade out for one more song
(chorus)

if you want we can start a band
i want to be in the middle
of her saturday plans
so when they say gold rusts
lift your head up
they got some secrets they've been keeping
from the 90%
(prechorus)
i never notice that you're gone
i never listen what i'm told
i never surface on my own
ah fuck it
(chorus)
we are the center of the universe and
we are everything that you never wanted
before we make it they will come
but don't stop
no don't stop
no don't stop
until you're sure we're broken
attention
i have words
blame that needs to be set
it was her sweet misdirection
that threw me by the hand
so when that line is stuck
fills your head up
say how i did it for the girl
who hates the sound of my band
(prechorus)
i never made it on my own
i never wondered why you're gone
i never set foot out of town
ah fuck it
(chorus)
(bridge)
bidding wars and cocaine floors
i want to live in that minute
no regard for one more
cos when that line is stuck
drills your head up
say how i did it for the girl
who hates the sound of my band
bidding wars and cocaine floors
i want to live in that minute
no regard for one more
cos when that line is stuck
don't you give up
say how i did it for the girl
who hates the sound of my...
what?
(chorus)
+
nah nah why are we so broken
i'm pretty sure we're broken

I'm Not the One For You
02:44

sat by the window
wondering what you could be
when the light's on me
watched as you came home
wondering who we're gonna be
this time next week
<i'm so sorry>
(chorus)
I'm not the one for you
the one for you
the one for you
you play along so cool
but know it too
you know it's true
ran from the window
wondering where i could be
where they won't find me
watched as it came down
with my heart in my feet
for the sake of sleep
and i want you
til i'm confused
and i'll burn it down for you
(chorus)
(bridge)
and i see your eyes
i see your eyes
like no one
and i hear it's time
they say it's time
for crossing
and we slow it down
just long enough to lose
(chorus)

i
i found the truth
i was looking
lookin 'round for you
and everybody knows
everybodys knows you're a liar
and everybody knows
everybody knows you're a liar
i'm tired
tell me why'd you even call?
(chorus)
half a dozen times
says baby you ain't coming home
half a dozen times
say baby you ain't out alone
i
i've been confused
by the words that
that you tend to choose
when everybody knows
everybody knows you're a liar
and everybody knows
everybody knows you're a liar
this time i
gave in what've i got to lose?
(chorus)
(bridge)
and now the party's over
your fulsome friends back to the woodwork
so sad you're getting older
you're making time for getting sober
i'm not your best friend
don't you expect much from me
<verse>
and now the party's over
your fulsome friends back to the woodwork
so sad you're getting older
you're making plans for getting sober
i'm overjoyed
i'm dead inside
i'm everything
at the same time
i'm overjoyed
i am dead inside
i am everything
you are doing right
your instinct's right
you're not doing fine
your mother's right
you're not doing fine
your friends are right
you're not doing fine
i think you're right
you're not doing fine

Squall

i can't remember
where we were last summer
i drove to the water
nothing was familiar
i ran down the boardwalk
walked out on to the dock
got strange looks in the park
i checked in all the shops
am i looking for you
or chasing a dead mood
reliving what i knew
relieved there was no proof
to kill what i'm under
what i've built around here
do you ever wonder
what i just discovered
now
those were the best days of my life
just close your eyes and you'll be fine
we came in september
hoping they'd be thinner
got lost on the way there
could never remember
we stopped in all the shops
we ran down the boardwalk
the sun sank as we talked
stole sips from paper cups
this pointless reflection
twisted my direction
i'm taking each day in
divide them by section
so i'll get back to you
get back to what i knew
the wishes of a fool
no i can't be saved from myself

It's Not For Me to Say
03:51

someone comes through the wall when
you thought you'd seen it all
and throw it away
make some room for today then
you can't help it you call and
tell me what's going on
you'll throw him away
if that's what it will take
(prechorus)
we used to hang on the boardwalk
almost every single night
and you would care enough to say
i'm with a girl
another time
we used to hang out on the boardwalk
and i'd play the part you liked
yeah there was another girl
but then you took her place just fine
but I ran away
(chorus)
it's not for me to say
but you're killing him
with every day
that you're turning away
yeah you're killing him
killing him great
the past is coming on it
goes off where we went wrong
the subtle mistakes
all but drowned in the wake and
you can't help it you call and
i go and play along
and keep us in play
safe if the wind should change
(prechorus)
we used to hang on the rooftops
almost every single night
and you would care enough to say
i'm with a girl
another time
we used to hang out on the rooftops
and i'd play the part you liked
yeah there was another girl
but then you took her place just fine
but I ran away
(chorus)
(solo)

Dead to Rights
03:15

come this december
it's been 8 years since we found ourselves
in troubled weather
now you won't say when we told ourselves
(prechorus)
we don't want to know
what our parents know
we don't want to know what's beneath us
i don't want to know
what i ought to know
i got plans and they don't include
(chorus)
your life
i'm dead to rights
i can feel the grip getting tighter each time
you were sure of a new sign
this rock and roll mind
don't leave room for ties
it's moving slow but all i
have in my sights
come this december
it's been 12 years since we had the mind
i'd drive the winter
braving snow and the cold to be broke on the other side
(prechorus)
i don't want to know
what our parents know
i don't want to know what's beneath us
i don't want to know
what i ought to know
i got plans and they all revolve
(chorus)

We're Dying Out
04:50
|

|
the view from this porch seat
is all i'll ever need
a walk in the country
it's run away from me
someone from your hideout
tells me that you're gone
as if i wouldn't find out
know my own house
it really gets lonely here
yeah baby when you're not around
(chorus)
we're dying out
every word you say
is soaked in doubt
won't be long now
someone read our last rites
tell the world why
there's nothing left for us here
but baby we're not coming out
i find myself talking
of how it could've been
just looking for something
that i just put away
someone from your hideout
tells me you've been found
as if i ought to cry out
turn it around
it really gets lonely here
yeah baby when you come around
(chorus)
(bridge)
we're dying out
every word you say
is soaked in doubt
the view from this porch seat
is all i'll ever need
a walk in the country
has run away from me
(chorus)
(coda)
we're dying out
every word you say
is soaked in doubt

Take Me Out Tonight
03:16
|

|
i need you by my side
it's not a real love
it's just a strong lust
i'm working on my lies
it's not about lust
i think this is love
won't you
(prechorus)
take me out tonight
show me off and make me feel in style baby
take me out tonight
walk me out on the boardwalk baby
stay out until the morning breaks me
(chorus)
first you laugh at me
then you're having me
work my way in your life
first you're casting me
then you're back with me
work my way in your life
it gets me every time
your vintage get ups
they string me along
it gets me every time
your better made loves
they sober right up
won't you
(prechorus)
(chorus)
(bridge)
<i tried to sing a love song
but nobody sings along
i tried to sing a love song
but she says the words are wrong
i tried to sing a love song>
she's got it, i'm wondering
how everyone's so boring
i'm never gonna play along
she's got it, i'm wondering
how everyone's so boring
i'm never gonna be the one to save you
(chorus)

In the Sunset
04:18
|
|||
|
our choices were made
before we caught on that we could run away
now we waste our days
engulfed by our number of plans that could not change a thing
and i gave up on your answer
i gave up on your answer
(chorus)
and we bathed in the sunset
what has it ever meant
so far from the days when we were saved
and we bathed in the sunset
what could we ever expect
so far from the days when we got laid
said we'll be okay
the last words we heard as they made their escape
to find better days
we'd steal and we'd kill for a change but it all looks the same
and you pray for better weather
and i wish for someone better
(chorus)
