Smoke Clouds

Cigarettes and drinking vodka,
Getting higher than the sky,
Is this all that your life's good for?
Just to tell another lie?
Roling fags and scrounging filters,
Scrimp and scrape for one ten bit,
Cheap deodorant, aftershave,
Don't waste your time you smell like shit.
Nightmares unfurling,
Behind your closed eyes,
Smoke Clouds untwirling,
To show you your life.
Greasy hair and blood shot eyes,
Looking over shoulders twice,
Frantic heart and shaking fingers,
Thousand thoughts race through your mind,
Group of people sat around you,
Don't pretend to call them friends,
A roll, a puff, a pass the risks,
Don't be thick, that's where it ends.
Nightmares unfurling,
Behind your closed eyes,
Smoke clouds untwirling,
To show you your life.

So I've Grown Up
03:52

It's a bit of a clique,
Still I guess it's that way,
Because it's true,
And there's so many songs about this,
You'd think we'd learn to listen,
But we all want to do thing our own way,
And everyone always says,
They know what to do,
But that's the funny thing about it,
No one ever knows until it's too late,
Everyone sits back and leaves it to fate,
What even is fate anyway?
Because in the end we always say,
So I've grown up,
Is this really what I wished for?
So I've grown up,
And I can finally do all the grown up stuff,
So,
I've grown up,
Is this really what I wished for?
Eating dinner on my own,
Spending hours staring at my phone,
So that I can pretend that I am not alone,
Walking down the road,
Heavy bags not helping aching bones,
Pretending that I know exactly where I'm going so that,
Nobody thinks that I might be an easy target,
Carefully averting eyes,
From the homeless broken hearted,
Getting in my cold bed at night and looking out at,
Another faceless block of flats,
So I've grown up,
Is this really what I wished for?
So I've grown up,
And I can finally do all the grown up stuff,
So,
I've grown up,
Is this really what i wished for?
And I know it's not all bad,
And sometimes I am so glad,
For the little things,
And there's so many things that I,
Can do now that I couldn't,
But sometimes,
I wish I'd listened,
But we all want to do things our own way,
And I always say,
I know what to do,
But that's the funny thing about it,
It's not true,
So I've grown up,
It's not quite what I expected,
So I've grown up,
And I'm doing all the grown up stuff,
So,
I've grown up,
And I should probably learn to accept it,
Cos I've grown up.

Synchronized

I look out at the distance,
But I don't see what's there,
My heart grows warm,
My mouth tugs up at the side,
As I see,
What's in my mind,
And what I see,
Is beautiful,
And tender,
And true,
I see,
When you smile,
I smile,
When you laugh,
It starts mine,
Our hearts,
Are synchronized,
And sometimes there's no need for words,
To say how we feel,
It's perfect,
When you're here there's no-one else,
Our hearts,
Are synchronized,
And sometimes there's no need for words,
I look back from the distance,
Look and see what's here,
My heart's still warm,
But your not here,
By my side,
It's just what I'm hoping for,
'Cause I want,
When you smile,
I smile,
When you laugh,
It starts mine,
Our hearts are synchronized,
And sometimes there's no need for words,
To say how we feel,
It's perfect,
When you're here,
There's no-one else,
Our hearts,
Are synchronized,
And sometimes there's no need for...

If You Fall In Love

If you fall in love with me through this dance,
I'll fall in love with the touch of your hands,
On my skin,
If you fall in love with me through this song,
I'll fall in love with you,
For just as long,
As I can,
For just as long,
For just as long,
For just as long,
For just as long,
The days are getting longer dear,
It's not long now that I'll be here,
And though there's reasons I could stay,
Life will take me on my way,
And there'll be many people there,
As I'm breathing in the city air,
And though it's not with you I breath,
I'll sing this as I go to sleep,
These moments and these memories,
Will be stolen by nobody,
Not from us by anyone,
They are as constant as the sun,
On a summers day when I was six,
And everything seemed far too big,
For anyone to ever understand,
If you fall in love with me though this day,
I'll fall in love with the oh so subtle way,
That you smile,
If you fall in love with me through this night,
I'll fall in love with you,
For just the right,
Length of time,
For just the right,
For just the right,
For just the right,
For just the right,
And I'll sing,
Ah- ah-ah ah-ah-ah ah-ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah ah-ah-ah ah-ah-ah
Ah- ah-ah ah-ah-ah ah-ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah ah-ah-ah ah-ah-ah ah ah
And we'll sing,
Ah- ah-ah ah-ah-ah ah-ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah ah-ah-ah ah-ah-ah
Ah- ah-ah ah-ah-ah ah-ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah ah-ah-ah ah-ah-ah ah ah
The days are getting longer dear,
there's not long now that I'll be here,
And though there's reasons I could stay,
Life will take me on my way,
And there'll be many people there,
as I'm breathing in the city air,
And though it's not with you I'll breath,
I'll sing this as I go to sleep,
If you fall in love with me through this dance,
I'll fall in love with the touch of your hands,
On my skin,
If you fall in love with me through this song,
I'll fall in love with you,
For just as long,
As I can,
For just as long,
For just as long,
For just as long,
For just as long.
