Behind the Smoke 03:28
lyrics
buy track
Feeling pressure not to be alone Sometimes better just to be unknown Promise to be there but don’t want to go Had other plans but couldn’t say no Watching the players fall into their roles Maybe it’s better if we didn’t know What it means to be the star of the show Behind all the smoke Jealousy seeping in Wonder where you coulda been Everyone behind a disguise Ideal life betrayed by the eyes Watching the players fall into their roles Maybe it’s better if we didn’t know What it means to be the star of the show Behind all the smoke

Broken Bridges 03:11
lyrics
buy track
Overworked and loaded down Drifting in and fading out Took too long to realize All the changes over time Wearing down, burning out Stone on stone, feel the load The bridge is closed we gotta turn around It seems we've said all we can say Silence serves in its own way Even if we were to let it go Can't get around what we both know No point now, all gone south Gave it a go, nothing to show The bridge is broken, better take it slow Taking it all into account Looking for a way to work it out Circling back over the dead end thoughts Turn it down or switch it off Take some time, quiet your mind Don't count the cost, it's not all lost The bridge is broken but we’re going across

Curtain Call 05:18
lyrics
buy track
See the lights all turn from red to green Look behind a veil of a dream Out of all the millions on the street Something pulled you into the scene with me Never knew how long this song would play Time slips and slides us on our way Lines around my eyes spread across my face Years passing by bending time and space Somewhere along the way your lines got Tangled up in mine I don’t know How or why or where we go from here So pour another glass of wine Stay with me let’s talk a while Maybe we can reconcile it all At the curtain call You like to act as though you don’t know Sometimes I wanna tell ya just where to go Yes okay so be that as it may Still got our day job dues to pay Somewhere along the way your lines got Tangled up in mine I don’t know How or why or where we go from here So pour another glass of wine Stay with me let’s talk a while Maybe we can reconcile it all At the curtain call So pour another glass of wine Stay with me let’s talk a while Maybe we can reconcile it all At the curtain call

Don't Make Me Move On 04:14
lyrics
buy track
Darling oh darling No I don’t want to go Still I find it hard to go along in the show Why ya gotta make me Make me move on Ah you know we got a good thing Yeah we have it all No need to give up on your own dream There’s plenty of time to make a final call Ya don’t gotta make me Make me move on You know I want you here with me I’d rather not be alone But if you choose to go your own way I just might have to stay here at home So please don’t make me Don’t make me move on Don’t you make me move on Please don’t make me move on Ah don’t make me move on

Heights 04:00
lyrics
buy track
Do you fear how high you’d fly How much you'd feel and see We could live a full life Just you and me Do you worry that it’d break you Would you collapse and break down Will you choose to take the safe road and never leave this town The highest height casts a lonely shadow Go that way and take it slow Let your heart break in two This pain might teach you something new Something new So you lean into trouble Get yourself caught in the night Try hard to be subtle but your heart’s taken flight You stay quiet for a while but you’re screaming in your mind Always want to see you smile but there's never enough time The highest height casts a lonely shadow Go that way and take it slow Let your heart break in two This pain might teach you something new We can find another way to stay this way You and me Time to leave it behind Imagine what we could be What we could be The highest height casts a lonely shadow Go that way and take it slow Let your heart break in two This pain might teach you something new

How We Fell This Way 04:56
lyrics
buy track
Look inside what you usually find, it’s not there Seems so strange, reflected image of the time Couldn’t see the change Yesterday didn’t even have to try, just fell in place Shift in scene, didn’t notice at the time We fell in between Hey now forget it everything’s okay Ain’t no need to talk about the cause or the blame Not even sure if we can ever say How we fell this way Changing roles finding new parts to play, while it all unfolds Won’t stay the same, everything’s got to flow Not set in stone Hey now forget it everything’s okay Ain’t no need to talk about the cause or the blame Not even sure if we can ever say How we fell this way

No Stable Spaces 05:35
lyrics
buy track
Come over here, sit next to me Looks like there’s something you wanna say I know there’s places we’ve both been Things we must keep locked and stored away Maybe we could trace it to the Moment you erased all of the Memories, and wiped the slate down clear Doesn’t matter whether It feels safe together Still gotta get over there No stable spaces here Knocked down tied up in all our fear No thought to all that came before Is there a story you wanna hear One to bring out the dream just a little more Maybe we could trace it to the Moment you erased all of the memories And wiped the slate down clear Doesn’t matter whether it feels safe together Still gotta get over there No stable spaces here Maybe we could trace it to the Moment you erased all of the memories And wiped the slate down clear Doesn’t matter whether it feels safe together Still gotta get over there No stable spaces here No stable spaces here No stable spaces No peaceful places Nowhere to rest while you're here

One and Done Featuring Rambling Steve Gardner 03:39
lyrics
buy track
Ain’t going nowhere, you're stuck in the mud Costing you too much in tears, sweat and blood Break through the frustration, one and done Quit your job before you run outta time Hit the road and leave it all behind We’ll have a hell of a run, one and done One and done, shades of grey One and done, better not overstay We’ll have some fun just this once, one and done Sunday morning, catch your mistake Too late this time to make a clean getaway Gave in to temptation, one and done One and done, shades of grey One and done, better not overstay We’ll have some fun just this once, one and done Come on now, just this once that’s all I said come on now, time to take the fall Come on now, take the fall You’re back to work now, routine setting in A world away from all the pleasure and sin Memory mixed with discretion, one and done One and done, shades of grey One and done, better not overstay We’ll have some fun just this once, one and done

Only One Chance 03:47

Find a way to keep your heart light While you walk this road Never gonna feel like the right time Got so far to go What you want it rides on the deep dive Tides are rolling in Fortune always favours a clear mind when you Fly into the wind Only one chance to play your move To get it right Break the chain of inhibition Like no one’s watching now Steady eye and keep your intention when you Fall into the sound Only one chance to play your move To get it right Only one chance to play your move To get it right Only one chance It’s time to move Let’s make this right

Outta Line 03:30

Looking out at the water flowing in Wondering what you're thinking, where you've been Swim inside your mind, waves roll by Standing right behind, something's outta line Outta line for you Outta line for me What can we do Tell me what do you see You put yourself right in the frame You know your way around inside the game And if I go or if I stay You'll be fine either way Either way we go, either way we stay What do we know about games people play Either way we go Either way we stay What do we know Outta line we go

People of the Screen 03:48

Eyes down, cross the street Bound by the screen Can’t say what they mean Hardly even speak Mass distraction steals your time, captivates your mind Strange attraction, look inside What’s not to like People of the screen People of the screen People of the screen People of the screen Sit together, side by side Finally found the time Might be better to set it aside Escape the pull of the light What to talk about in between Secrets that we keep Screens go up between you and me Walls that we don’t see People of the screen People of the screen People of the screen People of the screen People of the screen People of the screen People of the screen People of the screen

Safe Inside 04:08
lyrics

Safe behind the windows of a private limousine Hungry eyes on every side don’t wanna think about what it means Stumble through the markets and the beggars all be doubling down Cover up and close your eyes overwhelmed by the sights and sounds Ah let me be your guide I will find you a ride I know the way I know who to pay And I will keep you safe inside Safe above the masses in a five star executive suite So much scuffling down below barking mad dogs in the street Crazy traffic at the crossroads and the cars are going beep beep beep Watch em work around one another without anybody missing a beat Ah let me be your guide I will find you a ride I know the way I know who to pay And I will keep you safe inside Safe inside the company of my fine feathered family and friends Here take another cup of tea and let’s talk about the places you’ve been Oh my where to begin Singing in the morning and we’ll dance right to the end Sing and dance right to the end

Shiny New Thing 02:22

We saw the sunset go down on our dreams Everyone said don’t fret it’s not as bad as it seems Just gotta find a shiny new thing Caught in a moment, strolling over your mind Memories of an age when friends were easy to find We would always find a shiny good time Stuck in the same set Faded into the scene Couldn’t help but get swept Back into the machine Now ya gotta find a shiny new thing Just gotta find a shiny new thing Just gotta find a shiny new thing

Time to Let Go 03:50

Fading days Breaking waves Everything goes this way How do they know It’s time to let go Fall apart Right at the start Tried too hard to make your mark How could you know It was time to let go Stay in place Make it safe Some of these things just can’t be changed Maybe one day we’ll know but Now it’s time to let go Maybe one day we’ll know but Now it’s time to let go Yeah it’s time to let go
