You drove us through stormy weather to this place we call our home We travelled here in coffins made of silver I wanna know, are we alone in the universe? I want to believe, so give me everything you have I'm walking free, out there there's no turning back There's no shame in living in a shell, out there there's no turning back I wasted time, I lost my temper, now we're not who we are Once I woke up in a time machine in Glasgow For all I know we're not alone in the universe There's only us now, there's nothing left Nothing to long for and to come home to Wake me up when the time has come, when we'll have learned to be the ones to let life unfold

Not Nothing 04:30
Here's to our life up against the wall Are we done? Are we just growing old? I still want you to be there when I quit, that's not nothing We've been here time & time again Now the coffee's three days old and the only mail we get are bills to pay I wonder if I'll see you in my dreams, that's not nothing The kids are alright, I never hurt anyone

When I'm up it feels like nothing's ever gonna bring me down But when I'm down there's nothing you can do to bring me around So I'll blame it on the city, I'll blame it on bad luck You know, it's just the same old pile of crap This time's for real, I swear you'll never have to see me or deal with me again When I'm up I ain't gonna let no one try and bring me down But when I'm down, lord I've been so down & out You can't just call me up and bring me around So I'll blame it on the city, I'll blame it on bad luck You know it's just the same old pile of crap This time's for real, I swear you'll never have to see me or deal with me again Will I make it happen – Will I fuck it up I'll leave it up to you to come say hello, just see if I care I guess you're sleeping with some boy somewhere It's still up to me to say goodbye This is when I jump, this is when I quit, please just make it stop

Shit Hits 05:05
Trust no one who says they'll stick around for life I'll be the first to let you down, the first one to lie Trust no one who says they'll stick around for life I'll be the first to let you down, the first one to go Nothing's lost until they cut me down Nothing's lost until I have my head and my crown We're not like our fathers, oh my brothers we will rise Above mediocre standards of envy and lies Nothing's lost until they cut me down Nothing's lost until I have my head and my crown It won't be that bad when the whole world goes mad We'll still have our hits after all has turned to shit I will stop at nothing but time We'll still have our hits after all has turned to shit No one's laughing, and nothing's on What did we buy the damn thing for? We got holes to fill, the holes are all that's real (T.V.Z.) So grow a spine or catch a cold (A.O.)

Dog People 04:15
I wish you could stay I don't work, it doesn't work with no one else I wish you all the best I don't work, it doesn't work with no one else instead Get down your head boy, and do one thing right I failed every test I don't work, it doesn't work with no one else instead I wish you could stay I don't work, it doesn't work with no one else I'll put the kids to rest I don't work, it doesn't work with no one else instead Get down your head boy, and do something right I failed every test I don't work, it doesn't work with no one else instead I want to fuck you again & again I know it all too well It was unconditional, it turned to cruel It ended way too soon Turns out we're no better than the rest of them I want to fuck you again & again
6.
I hear them talk about the weather For all I know it does not look good Just stay inside & your big day won't get ruined I hear them talk about the overthrow One voice, no clues, (even) less brains I hear them talk about the overthrow Like they got something to say I hear them talk about having kids Then, they switch to politics I hear them talk about their coup d'état But we made it harmless, yeah we're all harmless And I got nothing to say Way to go, you fucking pros Next thing, you'll be talking about love Way to shine, you fucking stars Next thing, you'll be talking about love
7.
If you want to let it die, come see me If you want to shine a light, please don't If you think the damage's done, come see me If you want to ease the pain, please don't You'll never have to cry again We grow up and grow apart, we go our separate ways I wonder what's the meaning of contemporary life It's the worst mess I've been in and still no land in sight I wonder, did you crack the secret code for feeling fine? You wanna join the damaged ones? Come see me If you want to shine a light, please don't
8.
The Way 03:05
If you gave up the way you are just for a while Then I could change the way I am just for some time I gave up on love, there's nowhere for me to hide Nowhere is safe but you
9.
I take comfort in walls I take comfort in malls I take comfort in nothing worth fighting for There's no comfort in lies, I told one it was one too much I take comfort in nothing worth fighting for You got a father's instinct, I got teenage dreams What's wrong with me? You got a mother's instinct, I got teenage wet dreams What's wrong with me? Let us speak eye to eye All the trouble of the world is on our mind A pat on the back, a knife to the side Always trouble on my mind
