Solutions
the devil you know / is back here again / the devil is stoned
he's making friends / we move / we break / the sun with shade
you come / we go / we're fast / we're slow / blood on your dress
hole in your sky / blanket is gone / permanent night / we're glued
we break / we all / dilate / we please / we pain / again
she checks her head / she's in the smoke / figuring which way
to turn / now she's got a rope / oh / we need solutions
a brave megaphone / we need solutions / a brave megaphone
she's broken your shoes / you look like winter you're all in a
bruise / handful of splinters / we brood / we flake / we torch
we take / rebound / rebirth / cocoon / i could be wrong
i could be right / do you think we'll make it / out of here alive
Headful of Ghosts
I stand around at American weddings / I stand around for family
At my best when I'm terrorist inside / At my best when it's all me
I was there when they took all the people / I was alone in a mental ravine
You breathe life when you break the walls downYou breathe life when
you set me free / Where is my head? / Where are my bones?
Why are my days so far from home? / Where is my head?
Where are my bones? / Can you save me from myself?
Free-thinking renegade social / Mister Moon Man now
Out of the slipstream of my possibilities / Got the boat so we don't
drown / These are the days that I'm split down the middle
No words to calm me down / Be sure that what you dream of
Won't come to hunt you down
PAGE 5“ The People That We Love
Speed kills coming down the mountain/ Speed kills coming down the street /
Speed kills with presence of mind and / Speed kills if you know what I mean / Got
to feel - woke up inside again Got to feel less broke more fixed / Got to feel when
I got outside myself / Got to feel when I touched your lips / The things we do to
the people that we love / The way we break if there's something we can't take /
Destroy the world that we took so long to make / We expect her gone for some
time/ I wish her safe from harm / To find yourself in a foreign land /Another ref-
ugee outsider refugee / How's it feel she's coming up roses / How's it feel she's
coming up sweet / How's it feel when it's all in spite of you How's it feel when
she's out of your reach / The things we do to the people that we love / The way we
break if there's something in the way Destroy the world that we took so long to
make We expect her gone for some time / I wish her safe from harm To find your-
self in a foreign land / Another refugee outsider refugee / What happened to you
Superman
crucified / for eternal sins / re-invent myself/shape my alter skin / try to
break the mold / severed hold / first you find your threshold bevels / breath-
ing out your toxic levels / long slow rope is hangin / now we know what's comin
/ oh superman /where have you gone / with a little more time and a six leaf
clover / just a little more head to make you bolder / ju
st a little more sound
been playing tricks you know she got sucked so dry / we destroy ourselves to
rise again / open up yourself like a jesus son /only way out is through way past
you / first you get to human levels run rightthrough your bullshit pedals/
long slow rope is hanging/ now we know what's coming / oh superman where
have you gone / with a little more time / and a six leaf clover / just a little
more head / to make you bolder / just a little more sound / ju
st a little more
sound / been playing tricks you know he got sucked so dry and you oughta know
/ how to lose/ long slow rope is hanging / Oh superman / what have you done /
with a little more time / and a six leaf clover / just a little more head/ to make
you bolder/ just a little more sound
Hurricane
Skies ripped open by the sun / Daylight comes but not soon enough
Speed down your track in search of you / Strapped to the back of
what we do / Anaesthetize these troubled nerves/ over to you to
make it work / Agents of change set headfires / I'd rather starve
than fake alive / Lost to the cities of the night / Lost in the world
to make it right / Heartbreak / Heartbreaking / Novocaine won't
help the pain/ I'm out of control / I'm a hurricane / Head and heart
are broken down / Out of control, I'm in a hurricane / Hurricane
Win some ground but I lose you / It's never explained how to make
it through /No rope, no cash, no serpentine /All love buried on a/
bonfire/Good to see you follow /Good to see you come again /Miles
of Water
Fugitive
We got the soul, we got the honey / Stay alive we keep on running
House is on fire we're petrol stained / We stay on the move we
ahead / of the flames / We are the new accelerators / Faster
we go before they make us / Maybe we did maybe we don't / Let's
see your face as you throw / the stone / I am a fugitive on the
run / I carry the weight of what I'v
e done / Those born of sweat
/ Through eyes of love / Bring more light / Than 5000 hurts /
It's not where you're from where you go / And what you believe
is more than you know / Open your head open your head / Hold
me close as we jump off the edge / I am a fugitive on the run / I
carry the weight of what I've done / So don't carry the weight /
Don't carry the weight / Don't carry the weight / Don't carry the
weight, weight, w
eight / You can't change the world / But you can
change what's to come / You can't change the world / But you can
change what's to come / I am a fugitive on the run / I c
arry the
weight of what I've done / So don't carry the weight / Don't carry
the weight

But our love, it

Reasons
watch the water feed the soil / so the circle is complete / see what you have
become / is the earth beneath my feet / i'll bring in the stains / your alabaster
feet /what's the space between /what you want and what you need / so you'll
never be lonely again / never be lonely again / waiting for this love / to bring
me close to you / waiting for this love / bring me close to you / who are you/
and where are you in my life / i was wondering how much of me/ is still alive/
i don't even know / if i can swim again / you know how cold it gets / with all
your struggling / try to find ourselves / seems real / it gets so hard at times /
you know just what to feel / waiting for this love / to bring me close to you
waiting for this love / bring me close to you / i got reasons / i got reasons /
watch the water bleed the soil / albinoed by the sun / we will try to keep our
feet / in the face of what we've done / try to find ourselves / see this, what we
made?/ tell me what you want / and what you have betrayed / home is still the
place / that we love the most / home is where you are
