Silent Screams
You're the one with the stolen dreams
I'm the one whos' become a meme
You're the one with the faded smile
I'm the one with the jaded soul
And as I take it on the chin
I sit here and drink my Gin all night long
You're the cat that got the cream
I'm the one with silent screams
You're the one with a Woman's touch
I'm the one who drinks too much
And here I am now, an old has-been
who pens words of drunken dreams all in song
But no rules can apply
With the Belly Eye
You're the one who lost her mind
I'm the one who's lost in time
You're the one with a Woman's touch
I'm the one who drinks too much

Fifteen Years
I never got my Fifteen minutes of fame
Instead I got my Fifteen years of blame
And all those things you said, they got inside my head
It took me Fifteen years to sweep that shit away
So you can go and do
Whatever it is you do
To someone else, not me
And I hope for your sake they show you mercy
It's so hard to forgive
I never got my chance to level with you
We gave each other, Fifteen years of blues
And all those things we did, to make our hair turn grey
It took me Fifteen years to sweep that shit away

As You Were
Do they still say no
to your face, no matter where ever you go
And you'd pay to know
Yet you still don't know
As you were now
Do you really need us to explain
You're like a drill bit
That targets the cortex, in our brains
Help is on its way for you
Theres a special place for you
So you are our boss
and you're in charge of us
From nine to five
But must we bare the brunt
And must you be a pain
in our working lives

Listen with Mother
A drop of Mother's ruin
Sends my brain into overdrive
Mother's little helping hand
Bottled and sold across the land
Mother's little helper
Coddles' me and helps me thrive
A drop of Mother's ruin
Helps the soul really feel alive
Mother's little fighting juice
Helping Mother rule the roost
I should have listened to my Mum
Not done the things what I done
Listen with Mother, for she knows best

Welcome to the Big Time

Welcome to the big time
i never what to be, a burden upon your soul
i could never be, as great as 'he'
i could never take that role
Crawling through the holes and the tunnels of your mind
Passages for Passengers
You never know what you might find
Chorus;
Welcome to the big time
the belly eye
Walk along the fine line
Time to meet the no-one
the belly eye
All our work is now done
we fall down the rabbit hole
I could bake for you, a steak and kidney pie
with all the trimmings of a Sunday roast
We'll satisfy the belly eye
We'll have a drink or two, and sing some lullabies
and now you're winning we'll confront your ghosts
because its time to wave 'em bye bye
Chorus
And that it must end
the curtain must now fall
and as you applaud this underlying score
you'll see this freak show is now flawed
And now your ghosts have gone,
you've got them on the run
we can move on, ever closer
toward the end of the Sun
Chorus

Whats' in my Head

Whats in my head?
Anathema, Tea, Freaks, Hope
Whats in my head?
Another beer, Love, Sex, Dope
Its all in my mind
Curled up in a ball in the feotus position
Theres a world outside just waiting to scream
Now ive seen it all i Need my Physician
As never before was it this extreme
A bigger house, Cash, Meat, Beer
Whats in my Head?
My Wife, the Kids, the Bills, War
Its all on my mind
Turn your sad face away
The Hoodlums in grey are looking for trouble
As is the way of the 'Street Soldier'
We best run away, we'll be seeing double
Or else we could stay and stand our ground
The Belly Eye is in my Head
My little dog, my weight, Smoking, my fate
Whats in my head?
Space, love, cash, beer
Its all in my mind
And the world looks so small when they look down from Heaven
They think we're having a ball when we're having a war
And this is all I can scrawl as I think like a peasant
Drowned in alcohol like always before...

Generic Love Song
So down the rabbit hole we'll always fall again
And bless our magic souls we're in the wars again
so take what you need
I only ever wanted to be loved by you
but it seems our love is not enough to pull us through
I only ever wanted to be in love with you
Maybe our luck can pull us through
So once again we fix our smiling faces on
And look into the crowd and sing our sweet love songs
but we're crying inside
I only ever wanted, only the best for you
but it seems my best was never good enough for you
I only ever wanted, for you to feel it too
maybe our luck will will see us through
Do you think you can forgive me
For all the things I try to hide
Do you think you can forgive me
For these feelings inside
So bless our magic souls we fall apart again
And bless our tragic souls we try and start again
again and again
I only ever wanted to be loved by you
but it seems our love is not enough to pull us through
I only ever wanted to be in love with you
Maybe our luck can pull us through
