Never Gonna Let You Down
04:08
|
|||
|
I know the song in your heart
And sing it to you
You were so hard to find
Difficult to leave
And way impossible to forget
Wherever you go
My heart goes with you
Goes with you
I’m never gonna let you down
I tell you 1 2 3 forever
I’m willing to do whatever it takes
That’s what friends are for, right?
Through hard-times we walked
Day and night
(On fire, no limits)
You made me brave
Made me fly so high
(Our memories and laughs will last)
Living in a lie
In loneliness and pride
Instructive failures
Mistakes are a fact of life
Together we will survive
Wherever you go
My heart goes with you
Goes with you
I’m never gonna let you down
I tell you 1 2 3 forever
I’m willing to do whatever it takes
That’s what friends are for, right?
Through hard-times we walked
Day and night
(On fire, no limits)
You made me brave
Made me fly so high
(So high)
I’m never gonna let you down
I tell you 1 2 3 forever
I’m willing to do whatever it takes
That’s what friends are fo-o-or
(Oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh)
(Oh oh oh oh) Our memories and laughs will last (Our memories, our memories)
(Oh oh oh oh) Our memories and laughs will last (Our memories, our memories)
(Oh oh oh oh) Our memories and laughs will la-a-a-a-ast

Taking Life For Granted
04:06
|
|||
|
You were never taught to show that you care
Every match you’ve won
Every single problem that was solved
Every single result
You think it’s due to yourself
That’s not fair, that’s not fair (At all)
Your actions are all on you
Left me in the dark so cruel
A lack in you
A lack of gratitude
The circumstances have to change
All you ever do is, take life for granted
An unbelievable world
You’re living in
You’re not giving in
All you ever do is, take life for granted
An unbelievable world
You’re living in
You’re not giving in
You accept without question or objection
There’s always a time to be judged
There’s a time for everyone
In time a reaction to the things we’ve done
Your actions are all on you
Left me in the dark so cruel
A lack in you
A lack of gratitude
The circumstances have to change
All you ever do is, take life for granted
An unbelievable world
You’re living in
You’re not giving in
All you ever do is, take life for granted
An unbelievable world
You’re living in
You’re not giving in
Uh-oh-oh-oh oh-oh
Uh-oh-oh-oh oh-oh-oh
Failing to appreciate
Your ways cause hearts to ache
Taking life for granted (Oh oh oh)
All you ever do is, take life for granted
An unbelievable world
You’re living in
You’re not giving in
All you ever do is, take life for granted
An unbelievable wo-o-o-orld
Wo-o-o-o-oh (Oh oh)
Wo-o-o-oh wo-o-oh wo-o-orld

Since the very beginning
I had a dream
A goal to reach
All this time I was led by you
Oh-oh-oh
So many years with ups and downs I struggled
I struggled so hard so hard so hard
To get this far
All I ever wanted was more
Look at you
(Uh uh uh uh) You’re shining bright
You’re a star
All I ever needed was you
Just like you
I want to be a star star
Supernova (Supernova nova)
One and only shining star

Lighting up my world so far
Ah-ah-ah ah-ah

You’re impressive
In you I see celebrity
There is no doubt you (Uh uh) light up the room (Light up up up)
Oh-oh-oh
Finally after all those years
It became suddenly clear clear clear
To me
Yeah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
All I ever wanted was more

I'll Be Your Safe
03:22

(I’ll be your safe)
I’ll hold you here under shelter
While the waves are raging
Round round round your heart
When you’re feeling lost and lonely
No hand to hold you if you
Fall, fall, fall apart
(Keep believing)
I’ll be your safe, your harbour
I’ll be your safe, yours forever
I’ll be your safe, I’ll be it for you
I’ll be your safe, harbour now
(Now) Hold on, hold on
(Don’t push it)
Don’t push it (Push it)
Don’t lose yourself (Lose yourself)
Out of reach for me to help
Let’s open up and go together
I’ll clear the road for you
(Whi-whi) While it’s hard
(Keep believing)
I’ll be your safe, your harbour
I’ll be your safe, yours forever
I’ll be your safe, I’ll be it for you
I’ll be your safe, harbour now
(Now) Hold on, hold on
(Don’t push it)
Don’t push it (Push it)
Don’t lose yourself (Lose yourself)
Out of reach for me to help
(Oh oh oh)
I’ll be your safe
(Oh oh oh oh oh) Your harbour
I’ll be your safe
(Oh oh oh oh oh) Yours forever
I’ll be your safe
(Oh oh oh oh oh) I’ll be it for you
I’ll be your safe
(Oh oh oh oh oh)
I’ll be your safe
(Harbour harbour, be your safe)
I’ll be your safe

Wake Up
03:16
|

|
Every morning I get an idea
I’m supposed to act right on it right on it
Can’t get out of bed
Too lazy and forget
Work is calling
So damn bad timing
Wake up wake up
What am I waiting for
Wake up wake up
My body’s like a broken car
I’ve run out of fuel
Run out of fuel
Wake up wake up wake up
Too much to do these days
Why do I complain
I’ve got all I need to live a wild life
So why can’t I wake up?
Every night I’m dissatisfied
Missed out on my exercise exercise
I wanna fill my days
Spending time on what I like
Health’s reduced
The work is my excuse
(ah)
(ah)
Wake up wake up
What am I waiting for
Wake up wake up
My body’s like a broken ca-a-a-ar
I’ve run out of fuel
Run out of fuel
Wake up wake up wake up
Too much to do these days
Why do I complain
I’ve got all I need to live a wild life
So why can’t I wake up?
It’s not that easy to be balanced that’s for sure
I’m realistic
I get what I deserve
(I get)
(ah)
(I get what I deserve)
Wake up wake up
What am I waiting for
Wake up wake up
My body’s like a broken ca-a-a-ar
I’ve run out of fuel
Run out of fuel
Wake up wake up wake up
I’ve run out of fuel
Run out of fuel
Wake up wake u-u-p

You said sorry one too many times
How can I believe in a lie?
Led by your false promises
My heart was stolen and mistreated
I left you to be on my own
Thank you for breaking my heart
Without you there’s no dark no dark no dark
Oh
Thank you for breaking my heart
For making me strong
I carry on
In other words you helped me through
Now I’ve broaden my horizon too
This is my new destiny
An opportunity without you
I left you to be on my own
Thank you for breaking my heart
Without you there’s no dark no dark no dark
Oh
Thank you for breaking my heart
For making me strong
I carry on
Finally I believe
Finally
To leave was the only way
Thank you for breaking my heart
Without you there’s no dark no dark no dark
Oh
Thank you for breaking my heart
For making me strong
I carry on
Finally I believe
Finally
To leave was the only way
Thank you for breaking my heart
Without you there’s no dark no dark no dark
Oh
Thank you for breaking my heart
For making me strong
Thank you for breaking my heart
Without you there’s no dark no dark no dark
Oh
Thank you for breaking my heart
For making me strong
I carry on

Through Open Eyes
03:48
|
|||
|
Sight
Is dulled and denied
Weakened by toxic devices that blind
The mind (The mind the mind)
Is covered by dust
Hurts when it fades away
Friends
Follow the trends (Trends)
Isn’t it time for this madness to end?
We fight
Keep shining a light (Light)
Searching for something we hope they will take in
Let them all be free
Let them all see
The world through open eyes
Let them all be free
Let them all see
The world through open eyes
Today
Faces have changed (Changed)
It’s easy to hide out behind what you fake
We cry (We cry we cry)
With pictures we type (Type)
Emojis from love to hate
Is the new way
Let them all be free
Let them all see
The world through open eyes
Let them all be free
Let them all see
The world through open e-eyes
We fade away (We fade away)
What we hear
Is what we say (Is what we say)
We imitate perfection
Convenient action
Sometimes too late
Their eyes are weakened
And blinded to see
What’s right in front of them
They’ll let it all in
(Ah ah ah ah)
They’ll let it all in
(Ah ah ah ah ah)
Let them all be free
Let them all see
The world through open eyes (The new way)
Let them all be free
Let them all see
The world through open eyes (The new way)
Let them all (Let them all let them all let them all)
Let them all in
Let them a-a-all
Let them see
Let them all in (Let them all)
Into the soul (Ah ah ah)

Don't Bully Me Again
03:44
|
|||
|
You still cross the line (I don’t blame you)
I’ve often tried to point it out
Drew attention to it
Communication seems to fail (I don’t blame you)
No one is perfect or a friend to all
As adults we tend to ignore
As adults we seem so strong
As adults we write it off as a normal part of life for all
Don’t bully me again
I’d rather live without the stress
Don’t bully me
Be friendly instead
Don’t bully me again
It has a negative effect on how I feel the way I think and how I act
I saw what your parents put you through (I don’t blame you)
You used to push me and the weak around in school
Today you haven’t changed at all (I don’t blame you)
No one is perfect or a friend to all
As adults we tend to ignore
As adults we seem so strong
As adults we write it off as a normal part of life for all
Don’t bully me again
(Ha ha ha) I’d rather live without the stress
Don’t bully me
Be friendly instead
Don’t bully me again
It has a negative effect on how I feel the way I think and how I act
Your heart’s so big my friend
I love you till the end (Love you till the end)
It’s time to let love in – let love in
To let love in
(Let love in)
(Buh uh uh uh uh uh) Don’t bully me again
(Ha ha ha) I’d rather live without the stress
(Buh uh uh uh uh uh) Don’t bully me
Be friendly instead
(Buh uh uh uh uh uh) Don’t bully me again
It has a negative effect on how I feel the way I think and how I act
(Uh)
(Buh uh uh uh uh uh) Don’t bully me again
(Ha ha ha) I’d rather live without the stress
(Buh uh uh uh uh uh) Don’t bully me
Be friendly instead
(Uh)
(Buh uh uh uh uh uh) Don’t bully me again
It has a negative effect on how I feel the way I think and how I act

The Deepest Love
03:27
|

|
Too much rejection
No conviction
Loneliness feels so new
I lie here in my bed
Teardrops and depressed
Give me your love instead
The deepest lo-o-ve
Emotions that matter
Devoted lo-ve
When can I have it
Your friends don’t like me
They deny me
To envy me is so cruel
I’ve been reflecting
Soul inspecting
Give me your love instead
The deepest lo-o-ve
Emotions that matter
Devoted lo-ve
When can I have it
-
A feather in the wind
A chance to love again
The dee-pest love
A feather in the wind
A chance to love again
The dee-pest lo-o-ve
-
The deepest lo-o-ve
Emotions that matter
Devoted lo-ve
When can I have it
The deepest lo-o-ve (The deepest love)
Emotions that matter
Devoted lo-ve (Devoted love)
When can I have it
(The deepest love) The deepest love
(When can I) Emotions
(When can I have it) That matter
(Enough)
Devoted love

When can I (Enough)
(When can I)
Have it (Have it)

This World
Is a dangerous place
This World
Where mistakes can be made
Following rules by the government
Stay home stay safe and isolate
We are afraid of the dark
People
Let’s stick together and be grateful
For not given up
People
Let’s work together and see the light
At the end of the tunnel tunnel
This World
An unpredictable place
This World
Where we want to feel safe
Protect our children and the old
Everybody talks but nobody knows
We're still afraid of the dark
(Afraid of the)
People (Oh oh oh oh)
Let’s stick together and be grateful (Oh oh oh oh)
For not given up
People (Oh oh oh oh)
Let’s work together and see the light
At the end
To survive in this World
We’ll have to prove to ourselves that
We’re not afraid of the da-a-a-ark
People (Oh oh oh oh)
Let’s stick together and be grateful (Oh oh oh oh)
For not given up
People (Oh oh oh oh)
Let’s work together and see the light
At the end of the tunnel tunnel
Mmm
There’s a bright light in you
This World
This World

Bandcamp is my favorite app. Without Bandcamp I would missed out on a lot of great music like Empathy Test! A wonderful album. Occasionally bombastic with nice synths and the voice of Isaac Howlett on top. Well done guys💪🏽
