Save the Coffee Boy 04:17
lyrics
buy track
The 456 say the fight begins, they lock the doors nothing can get in and nothing can get out and the air is poisoned. You point your gun at the foggy glass and I’m standing next to you so full of wrath that I don’t notice even now you’re dying. I’m used to my own immortality, but you’re vulnerable, we gotta get you out of here there’s gotta be something that I can do, Ianto. Chorus: Please, stay with me please, oh no, don’t you leave me, please don’t go don’t you leave me here all alone. and there’s nothing we can do. There’s gotta be an antidote, and I take it all back, you can have all the children of earth just don’t take this man away from me. Everybody in the building is screaming, lights are flashing, your eyes are gleaming. I hold you in my arms, but your breath is fading and it is all my fault, Ianto. Chorus You whisper ‘I love you’ just don’t speak, save your breath, and keep in mind all the good times that we had. How dare you think I could ever forget you, a thousand years time, I will still remember you, I promise you, I will, I will, I will And the memories of times we played hide and seek with that stopwatch of yours I will always keep with me. The adventures we went through, the bliss and the pain, the good and the bad times and whatever will remain. The lashings of coffee you would make for me, in the middle of the night when I couldn't think of sleep. You were there by my side, Ianto. I kiss you one more time before I pass out and I wake up between corpses and red blankets. And I’m hoping against any hope. Gwen is crying over your dead body, but there is no time to rest, because we’re still in war with the 456. Oh, Ianto. Chorus

Love Songs are for Lonely People 02:39

you arsonist set fire to my heart and left me burning in the dirt with nothing left to pray upon but my broken heart and a small key da dee da dee every secret, every lie another thing to glue between my thighs a school girl’s wolfsbane in a cup a whole year that has screwed us up that will make me struggle when I trip da dib da dib chorus: love songs are for lonely people love songs were only made for us let’s hope tomorrow there will be a pair of starcrossed lovers less you lone wolf had everything a man could want but you wanted claws and didn’t get fangs you got scales and a tail and a letter in the mail that said: ‘please say ‘i love you’ soon da doon da doon I want out and you want in we’ll meet somewhere in between kidnap the whole pack for a day and take your car to drive us far away and kiss until there’s nothing left to say chorus bridge: every promise that you make is a butchered Shakespeare quote I should hate but you say it and you mean it and sometimes it just those two who you thought would never fit because, Jackson, we fit we do, we do I do I do love you chorus

My Bottle Sings 04:02
lyrics
buy track
marble lover of liberty you're my marble love of low degree your jaw looks like it's carved from stone in your shadow I will stand alone and while my heart'll always stay a mess when I touch your bones it hurts a little less chorus: why why why my bottle sings why why why the gunshots ring why why why will you not let me see your wings like Apollo you're crowned by the sun you speak of days that are still to come your tongue is older than you'll ever be no alcohol has that effect on me after all my prayers with a mouth full of wine your stone-cold words still send shivers down my spine now we finally know what's going on cause a non-existent god did wrong with all our fingers dyed with blood there're still plenty of flags left to hold up and if schoolboys manage to save this land we'll still be strangers that like to hold hands chorus rising sun all clad in red I know this rising sun will set and when you've fallen from the sky I'll be there to hold you tight with cold white hands and broken skin praying that heaven up above will let us in and while the blood is seeping through your vest the people say we have been blessed a god has walked among us for some time chorus my my my we were born to fall my my my still you tried to conquer them all my my my love isn't worth your blood at all

The Weather 02:47
lyrics
buy track
the picture of a perfect town all radios turned onto white noise but before fear can climb your mind 'hello night vale' says a voice you might soon hear you're non-existent when you're pretty sure you're there share your fate with all the mountains and the moon up in the air chorus: this is the weather the voice claims and sure enough, it starts to rain hip hop rhythm, violin screeches it's all going down the drain only afterwards the sun will rise with a new song in its yellow eyes so every last man is advised while the melody is falling, stay inside now a short word from the sponsors so quick you won't even hear it come limbs of all kinds are in fashion now you should get your kids to sprout some and city council has proclaimed last night blue is disproved as a colour you can still use it as a feeling though it might make your life a little duller chorus today's proverb are the last words you'll say with your dying breath so we're very unhappy to say tonight's show will end with your death chorus

Brother Sister Twins 05:15
lyrics
buy track
Here I am now wondering how am I gonna live without him Here I am where can I find, where can I find some peace of mind caring brother, be my compass, be the water under the bridges that I've burned caring brother, never falter, price I payed for the lessons I have yet to learn and I turned around and you were gone how am I supposed to carry on with your blood on my hands the guilt and the anger I cannot contain the battles I’m fighting are lost all the same and now that I lost you the north wind is cold freezing my heart, freezing my bones already I miss you Not a stir now not a sound inside my heart on dusty ground but still Is think of her as mine not a stir how is it that the worst thing about leaving is leaving her behind wayward sister, ever changing, always grudging, always telling me you never liked to be a twin wayward sister, bitter vengeance will not get you anywhere believe me letting go is not a sin and the next time you see me you too will be gone after the battles we've lost the few that we've won I’ll wash the blood from your hands I’ll wash from your skin every flaw every stain I’ll teach them what it means to take your name in vain and now that I’m gone the south wind is warm healing your heart, healing your bones darling don’t miss me Here I am now still not sure what to believe in anymore I used to think that we could be soldiers with a common enemy truth is I begrudged you Theta, only waiting for a chance to outrun you in the field truth is I’d do anything to take back all the words I said but I was never first to yield Not a stir now anyway there’s nothing I could say to her to make her feel any less betrayed I used to think the world was at our feet, victory was sweet, luck was with the righteous truth is I mistook you for the child I used to dress alike truth is you were always more that that truth is that wherever death will take me a south wind will wake me I won’t look back
