Let's go out drinking
Come back thinking
Of new ways to pass the time
Yeah you're clever
But you'll never
Be the one to change my life
Why can't we like the same bands as you
For completely different reasons?
Why can't we worship with you
Without ever really believing?
Let's go out drinking
Come back thinking
Of new ways to take a life
Yeah you're clever
But you'll never
Be the one to take mine
Why can't we like the same bands as you
For completely different reasons?
Why can't we worship with you
Without ever really believing?
Why can't we like the same bands as you
For completely different reasons?
Why can't we worship with you
Without ever really believing?
Let's go out drinking
Come back thinking
Of new ways to pass the time
Yeah you're clever
But you'll never
Be the one to change my life

Paris

I'd like to meet you in Paris
I think you and the city'd go well together
To make me believe in anything
I'd like to get away from this
I think me and this place are hell together
If you can't imagine
I'll set the scene:
It's a darkened room
That the ghosts couldn't
Stay far away enough from
There's clothes on the floor that I've never touched
Smoke hangs in the air but you couldn't get enough
I never meant to make anyone love me
I'd like to meet you in Paris
I think you and the city'd go well together
To make me believe in anything
I'd like to get away from this
I think you and me are held together
By nothing more
Than hooks and string
Cos you're a romantic and I
Don't really know
What that means any more
I thought people weren't like they are on screen
You were much to much for me to believe
I never meant to make anyone love me

A Town Full of Light

Spent a night in your old flat
Reminds you life isn't fast as all that
You slept in your jeans again
Out of your head again
You'll find your way back
You blinked, you breathed in
It was summer again
And just for a second
You thought you could win
But you know better than that
In a town full of light
With a heart full of hope
And you can't give it up
And you can't let it go
Still it slips out of your hands
Nothing is sudden in real life
Everything changes in such slow motion
You missed the party
Cos your best friend was crying in the bathroom
She's a wreck
You're a ruin
You can't breathe
She can't speak
You can't breathe
She can't speak
Wipe those tears away
Nothing is sudden in real life
Everything changes in such slow motion
