The Fool 04:04
I’m in the downs You’re on the up Five years removed You couldn’t give a fuck Even still I thought I’d try my luck or fake it So I tried and tried to cut you off Your knife still cutting in my cloth Like an itch becomes a cough Becomes a plague I wish I never met you Still wish I could forget you Quite the same But you might say it another way You might save me some kind of space Quick to replace This exchange But I’d still answer if you rang My number has even stayed the same Quick to erase Things will change But I’m still stuck here just the same And I’m just hanging by a string The only thing to cling Must I refrain My hesitation still remains And I’m just stuck here feeling a pain That I can’t explain I’m looking back on our old memories And they’re getting the best of me Just like you I’m looking back on our old memories Oh and they’re getting the best of me Just like you Once did do Now tell me the truth I took all the clues Bent all the rules And left me the fool

The night that you’d planned We’d get together without all our friends I said I’d understand If you’d changed your mind I’d of met the demand It may be off-hand But really I’m just fine debating shitty australian bands I came your way and Said I’d be there if you just needed to vent Another nights hand The cards we had dealt left us to reprimand Another night spent And me left to wonder if you and I were never meant I said my goodbye’s It may be my last but not by my design Feelin’ alright Yet still feel the need to invite my demise Despite your advice But really I’m just happy to of made it out alive ‘Cause ninety on the five On course to collide I should be dead I should’ve died Another nights hand The cards we had dealt left us to reprimand Another night spent And me left to wonder if you and I were never meant And baby just yet If we left things alone it might be our best bet And don’t forget The times that we had I wouldn’t trade I won’t regret no

Go To Hell 06:08
Oh when the pain is creeping in slow And I should’ve know Oh but the signs keep telling me go And my body’s telling me no And I’ll that I’ve done Once more around the sun And I will succumb For now I remain numb I come undone I come unglued You made me run I won’t give up the gun Oh when I hear the bell Buyer’s market - nothing to sell Oh tell me to go to hell But I already fell Oh if things were the same Would I ever change Oh my fellow sinners Bask in the heat of the flames I come undone I come unglued You made me run I won’t give up the gun

Hounds 04:30
Stoned and alone on the basement floor Limbs strewn through the door I couldn’t take anymore You told me you’d moved on and settled down Right after I’d left town Quick little turn around I hadn’t guessed I hadn’t figured out No time for thinking now Stop the bleeding how? I didn’t leave you like I did before And for this I’m sure Though it felt quite more Call me and say that you could be so proud I hear your voice still loud Could pick it from a crowd Tell about how your just doing fine A new man - new time And a name the same as mine Stuck in the muck i tried and had no luck What a puny fuck Hands up and chin kept tucked Round for round Pound for pound He’s the underhound An underhand that left a man without a further sound
