In An Ideal World 03:58
lyrics
buy track
I wanna be your love song in a couple of years time I wanna be the weight that's lifted off your shoulders In an ideal world you'll be with me, you'll miss me In an ideal world I'd walk and walk with you You're sitting in the back of a car with the radio on Rolling a cigarette for two Singing along to the The Replacements It turns me on It turns me on You say you're breaking up and your eyes look at the floor You keep coming back for more You keep knocking at my door If you feel the way I do Then I've got to tell you "You can hang around 'till I'm coming down"

Exclude Me 04:46
lyrics
buy track
Pressed up to the bathroom door Girls talking shit about someone they met Don't even look at you Wash your hands twice, get out of my life tonight Elbows to the bar Ignored unless its sport or something relevant Have you heard of it? Exclude me more You know what I said In front of your friends you shake and turn your head Am I not cool enough to be at this party? Oh when did it start tonight? On the couch, there's a glass of red and a bunch of men Well, they pretend that their life is better than mine Am I rich enough? Am I cool enough? Am I smart enough? Do I talk too much? I don't wanna be left alone Dig me a hole so big My heart will never crawl out I just need something to do Something to hold Something to tear me apart Back to the start

Underneath It All 03:37
lyrics
buy track
Go to bed in the early morning (Dream those dreams away) You can't hear anyone at all (Make me feel okay) Wake in sweat Your life is ticking by Don't you cry A gentle suicide Is all you need to hurt the ones you love Don't you cry and don't leave your life behind For all your friends to find As they're looking through the blinds Where all your memories remain And so always does the pain If you wanted to be sure The shadows on the wall I'll be up at the crack of dawn tomorrow It's so strange to feel that pain Underneath it all Take a stand, put it back in place Wake up early in the day (Night has gone away) I can't feel anything at all (Make me feel okay)

Fly To Japan 04:14
lyrics
buy track
Back on that horse The bottle breaks You've done it before I'm digging up graves Moves on the chessboard They won't help Trying to see Just like your health Smile and laugh and you stare at the ground What's the point when nobody's around? And it's hard, so hard To feel like yourself in the big city A crystal drop in a melting pot Of pointlessness and pity A crystal drop in a melting pot Of pointlessness and pity Do what you can When the night is through Fly to Japan Go to the zoo Tomorrow you'll see reflections Tomorrow you'll be forgotten Smile and laugh and you stare at the ground Whats the point when nobody's around? I will be gone

Jersey Rd. 03:51
lyrics
buy track
Pick up the pieces of a damaged man She packed up all her shit and split in a minivan Didn't have much to live off, and no fuel at all She drove the coast twice with a bikie named Paul At the rest stop, they didn't serve champagne They took her in, grew her up, and kicked her back out again Satellites watch on, with a glimmer and a grimace As she torches her life and throws it in the furnace By the riverside you called me On a payphone not too far Can I come back in again? I almost lost the car Red sick silk on a mattress out of town I don't want to do this anymore I need a way out So she said Out there on the mantle A woman hosts a party Sold everything she had Just to get it started I'm in the background, watching it all Trying not to laugh or to see anyone fall Over and over and over again Try to get by with no thought for anything Or else you get caught up in other people's problems One or two is fine but then they become yours Shut up, be quiet, remember to breathe Like all teachers tell you when you were thirteen, yeah
