Die Laughing [ < top ]

Gimme something to breathe
Give me a reason to live
Close your eyes and see
What you have inside

I think I've gone insane, I can't remember my own name
I think I've gone insane

Now the dream is gone
And your friends just tell you lies
Then you realise
You're gonna die anyway

I think I've gone insane, I can't remember my own name
I think I've gone insane, I can't remember my own name
I think I've gone insane, I can't remember my own name
I think I've gone insane

Lost in a world with no reality
I'm frightened to move
I'm frightened to speak
And I will kill for a good night's sleep
I'm feeling, I'm feeling dead, dead, dead, dead

I think I've gone insane, I can't remember my own name
I think I've gone insane, I can't remember my own name
I think I've gone insane, I can't remember my own name
I think I've gone insane

I can't remember
I can't remember
I can't remember
I can't remember

Stop It You're Killing Me (Live) [ < top ]

The world is fucked, and so am I
Maybe it's the other way round, I can't seem to decide
Domestic refugees sink in the same boat as me
We suffer alone and these days I don't wanna go home

Idiots authority
Promising equality
So where is the land of the free?
Stop it you're killing me

Love is for the weak, or so you'd have me believe
The thought's killing me, no body but a head O.D.
Don't know what's worse, the loss of death or the gain of birth
I try to understand, I can't accept just what I am

Idiots authority
Promising equality
So where is the land of the free?
Stop it you're killing me

I'm leaving on a train that's six miles down
Can't feel no pain, can't feel you now
When you drift away I'm singing: "On my way I'm telling you"
I can hear you coming to, I can see you pushing through
Tell me can you see the, can you feel the rain

Idiots authority
Promising equality
So where is the land of the free?
Stop it you're killing me

Idiots authority
Promising equality
So where is the land of the free?
Stop it you're killing me

Yeah

Trigger Inside (Live) [ < top ]

Here comes a girl with perfect teeth
I bet she won't be smiling at me
I know how Jeffry Dahmer feels
(Lonely, lonely)

I was awkward as a child
Blueprint for my wretched life
Confidence I've been denied
(Lonely, lonely)

Something in my head
It won't switch off when I'm alone

I got a trigger inside, I got a trigger inside
I got a trigger inside, I get the feeling I've been cheated
I got a trigger inside, I got a trigger inside
I got a trigger inside, I get the feeling I've been cheated

My hands are shaking, my head's a mess
Trying to wring some words from my breath
I die before you, you're not impressed
(Lonely, lonely)

I look uglier when I cry
Want to punch that look from your life
One in the eye for the beautiful people
(Lonely, lonely)

Something in my head
It won't switch off when I'm alone

I got a trigger inside, I got a trigger inside
I got a trigger inside, I get the feeling I've been cheated
I got a trigger inside, I got a trigger inside
I got a trigger inside, I get the feeling I've been cheated

I got a trigger inside, I got a trigger inside
I got a trigger inside, I get the feeling I've been cheated
I got a trigger inside, I got a trigger inside
I got a trigger inside, I get the feeling I've been cheated

Cheated, cheated, cheated

Hello Leeds!

Evil Elvis (The Lost Demo) [ < top ]

I lost my way
But I'm coming back to mess with your head
And I'm feeling all alone
Got to get you, got to let you know

I can never have you so I will always hate you
I can never have you so I'll hate you
I can never have you so I will always hate you
I can never have you so I'll hate you

Are you on my side?
All these drugs have made me paranoid
And I'm feeling insecure
You're the only one that makes it worse

I can never have you so I will always hate you
I can never have you so I'll hate you
I can never have you so I will always hate you
I can never have you so I'll hate you

I can never have you so I will always hate you
I can never have you so I'll hate you
I can never have you so I will always hate you
I can never have you so I'll hate you
Hate you, hate you

Thank you very much
