My Lovely Friend I left a note I ran away, I could not cope I hid beside I slept behind a lorry tire I saw the lights The fuzz were blind, I hid from sight My father heard My whimpers, then he knew I… He brought me home And I just thought, what have I done? I bled my heart And in his lap I fell apart I wept, I moaned I can’t go on, I’m here alone He said in the end That all I needed was a… The drugs they numb Got work to do but what’s the point You lie in bed You’re locked up tight inside your head You’re tired, you’re bored Let’s see what shame your mind has stored You are my friend I’ll stay with you until the… I’ve been there too The dark it fades I promise you My heart I’ll lend I’ll be there soon my lovely friend.

Quiet With Others There’s a boy He threw a stone to crush his temper His arm too strong There’s jail for him His mother’s bitter She’ll cut him off It’s hard in there to trust a comrade So silence goes He’s quiet, he’s quiet with others He’s quiet, he’s quiet alone So this boy was searching for someone But he couldn’t speak He croaked, he croaked This boy He knows his locks are open But stays indoors For how? For why is he to trust it when silence goes? He’s quiet, he’s quiet with others He’s quiet, he’s quiet alone He’s quiet, he’s quiet with others So this boy was searching for someone But he couldn’t speak He croaked, he croaked

Stone Me 03:24
Stone Me The temptation dines The guilt ridden sigh My husband is sleeping Let’s have our fun Let’s roll around in bed My husband is sleeping Let’s have our fun Let’s roll around in bed The temptation dines The guilt ridden sigh Love, don’t cry for me Stone me down…me down…me down.

Recalling Dreams Did you know that I talk and I moan in my sleep? Did you know that I shake and I scream in my sleep? Did you know that I beg and I fight in my sleep? Did you know that I can not recall any dreams?

Sticks 03:29
Sticks Sticks and stones, it’s the only route I know Lead me on and I’ll loose it on the floor Fool me once and I’ll take it on the chin Trick me twice and I’ll loose it on the floor
7.
The Wall 04:23
The Wall I heard a record playing in the room next door A song of purest feeling, his heart laid out on the floor And every word he sang were words that I had fought to find That song was all I needed So I press my ear into the wall It’s the same sound. It’s the same sound that burns It’s the same sound Oh budge over Press your ear to the wall I’ll nudge over Press my ear to yours I heard a couple making love in the room next door The way she moaned reminded me of me a year ago When I loved a boy so dearly and we turned our beds into homes Now that sound had no meaning so I pressed my ear into the wall Oh budge over Press your ear to the wall I’ll nudge over Press my ear to yours Slowly tell me that you’re standing near…

Do as I please You take a seat Close to me Your hand don’t belong there, my friend No one knew I could not move I feel so frail I said to her, please don’t do it Please don’t do those things to me And she said to me, yes I’ll do it Yes, I’ll do as I please I raised my fists But failed to move I could not stop the madness, I’m ruined Perverted child I’m pure and true Make me like you I said to her, please don’t do it Please don’t do those things to me And she said to me, yes I’ll do it, Yes, I’ll do as I please
9.
Just Sleep 03:13
Just Sleep I held her stare I moved in and told her I didn’t care We drank until our legs wouldn’t move We started mumbling, mumbling, mumbling I kissed her head And all I got was a mouthful of curly hair Her eyes were like the fullest of moons And our night got troubling, troubling, troubling Don’t you cry Because I am your friend Don’t you dare regret the time we’ve spent Let’s just sleep until we are moved and I will hold you tight. Just sleep my friend…

Winter’s Coming We’re too young, far too young To feel this old To feel this old Trees start weeping, songs they’re keeping Safe from snow Safe from snow You’ll be leaving, trees are needing You to go You to go Winter’s coming, and heart starts numbing I’m so cold I’m so cold When you leave, I too must go You’ll return and you won’t see me I’ll be gone, out across the water And into that mess If you’re needing, and I’m still sinking I won’t go I won’t go I won’t go I won’t go
