| CandyassJoy Opposites | Joy Opposites | Joy Opposites | Joy Opposites | | Nothing left to hold on to but pieces of metaphors that Only help me to confuse the now and before (and before) We all go It seems like there's an answer, but it's buried in amongst the fallen words that have no meaning left at all any more Slow down slow down you're always telling me to stay down and out, don't bother getting up and slow down slow down you're always telling me to stay down down I'm sick of walking away, sick of learning to feel It's hard to say but the time and the place and the look on your face say it's real Like to say that all this counts for something I'm never sure but I Eat it up and turn into the thing that I was before and it Seems like there's an answer in there Buried in amongst the fallen words we like to taste Wish that I had never known all this Holding it together just another day |
| In My Bones (Album Version)Joy Opposites | Joy Opposites | Joy Opposites | Joy Opposites | | Take the weight away until I find my feet If I knew what I wanted we could move through the intricacies No time to fall apart and nothing left to see Never asked what I needed, just a pass from a friend I once had So it goes It's a gentle way of never letting go Sticks and stones to break them down, words to patch them up Without clues to the answer nothing new or original here It's just a matter of what they never needed to ask and never made it through Never took the chance, let them follow, abandoned and hollow, so low It's too much and too far Afraid of letting go but I feel it in my bones And so long to so much, I never needed it Cos I feel it in my bones Follow the tracks into the night, a little sober thinking Shake the feeling of missing out, you'd better pack that dissonance up, kick it out and forget it More in a day than I could ever be, I feign innocence as if it means a thing to someone else I'd do anything to make another chapter, not an easy dream but that's life now |
| SwirlJoy Opposites | Joy Opposites | Joy Opposites | Joy Opposites | | Learn to lose it all, lean into the fall An embrace that's tough to gauge and all you're left with is an empty space that's Nothing any more, no reason to call But I'd like to be amazed at something else for just a little change and Too much of everything to make out a little sympathy Coming back around the thought, on the track to something more And it's alright, I believe it and I told it to whoever's listening All the brightness that it brought, nail it down forget some more And it's alright, I believe it and I told it to whoever's listening out Step into the warm, hold your graceful form even when they try to break it And the cracks appear like time just gave up Learn to lose it all, lean into the fall An embrace that's tough to gauge and all you're left with is an empty place that's Just a skeleton of what used to be something so divine I know now what I didn't want to see before I know now and I never want to look away again “Say what you mean and then mean what you say if you Want to believe and then in turn be believed and...” Won't you take a look into the mirror？ No love, no lies, just a shock that's real |
| Somewhere Down The LineJoy Opposites | Joy Opposites | Joy Opposites | Joy Opposites | | I push away and then I leave a little silk on the outside One more day and then we're never coming back again Doesn't matter what you feel or what you think of it anyway It's just a question of it coming back around again It's like we're never going to make it happen I thought a minute and we're doing this all wrong It's like a hurricane without the action I count the seconds like they help with holding on Another will another way another time to forget now A wish so lonesome that it's given up the will to fight Save those tears because they'll help with the drought now, losing out now on the Only road that's left for people who care Fragments of something flow by and cover up, erase and Everything darker, everything better looking can you Wait for the moment, wait till they look away from here forever？ |
| Now & ThenJoy Opposites | Joy Opposites | Joy Opposites | Joy Opposites | | I've lost the feeling again It's not a joke that I get these days I don't know where it all went or when I'll ever get it back This is now that was then Can we ever expect the same？ I don't know where it all went or when I'll ever get it back Passing all the people who never looked and never even knew It's alright cos there's another when they need it and another they can fall into Backing all the bright and new, never thought about the how and who It's alright, it's just a cover when they need it, it's a miracle they're clinging to Stain to silver when the thoughts arrive Turns to dust between the eyes And I could never paint a love song Got to set this out before I lose the colour, the memory of what I looked for That can save me, that can help me out this time Trickling down between the lines, feeling it cut into the spine Think of another day so fine, I think of you````````````` All I can see is the roots, and I don't know where they're from Don't know where they're going to and that's for sure No-one believes in the truth cos it's darker where they're from But it's brighter where we're going to and that's for sure |
| King Of NothingJoy Opposites | Joy Opposites | Joy Opposites | Joy Opposites | | Feeling this might hurt sometimes I'm just saying. Not a negative answer Being this way turns my mind and I'm swaying back and forth to the the action Look away, not the time to say there's another day I'm just the king of nothing anyway Don't you know she said 'a sense of how to get this right isn't easy' Only comes with the fall and Feeling your way through the night in the dark where nothing matters anyway When you're done taking the minutes, you got a second？ We can... Talk talk passing the seconds I've got my mouth shut, I'm down on my knees I know the numbers never said it, they never really get it And maybe that's not all that I need Feeling this might hurt sometimes I'm not playing, just a dance with disaster Seeing this way takes some time and I'm aching, at a loss for distractions |
| Skim The SunJoy Opposites | Joy Opposites | Joy Opposites | Joy Opposites | | Push the button in the middle of my head, want no part of this I don't remember the times but discussions linger, words I might have said have no part of this And we do nothing but wait for the towers to fall, kiss the promise of something more Stolen shakes as it starts to dawn. Is this all？ This is all. See I don't know why, but it's useless This turning back the hands, so I'll see you on the other side Love to let this slide, it's so shameless Pretending nothing's wrong so I'll see you on the other side Suck the marrow from the middle, leave me fed, want a part of this？ Try to remember the steps back but memory's a friend who's upped and left, has no part of this Don't know what I miss more, the conscience or the safety of the net Look around for the fatal flaw, some shame that I haven't found it yet Don't need this any more, believe me when I say I won't forget Looks like we made it, sun sinks lower and I'm on the other side |
| Blossom ForecastJoy Opposites | Joy Opposites | Joy Opposites | Joy Opposites | | Too soon to say it's just a moment In time we'll forget it's like all of the other ones (oh) Too soon to see, it's just a moment In time we'll forget it's like all of the other ones Cover up and slide away Act like there is no forever Tease until it sits that way Unintentional but now I'm crawling on my knees to get there Suck it up and smile away Loosen up the broken tethers Crash and burn and pass away Nothing ventured nothing gained and I'm crawling on my knees to get there Cover up and slide away Act like there is no forever Tease until it sits that way Unintentional but now I'm Just a little on the... Facing up another... Push and pull for all I care Just a little on the... Spacing out and looking Give and take and it's all fair So now what are you waiting for then？ Not all you expected from it... What now？ An out？ But it's the easy way and I'm not one for faking these days From goddess To one of The masses moving down the tracks From goddess down To be one of us It's a fall without a safety net |
| AbidaJoy Opposites | Joy Opposites | Joy Opposites | Joy Opposites | | Wish it never started？ Say it once and never again Nothing really seems to phase me Nothing hurts, everything's repeatable Suffer the fainthearted Eyes to the back of the head I dreamed that nothing really seemed to shake me Nothing hurt as I spoke of the unspeakable They say the sorrow lies in parting another thing I misunderstand Everything aligned so perfectly And yet nothing fits and I'm tired of being comfortable Sugar turns to sour Sick and then it goes sweet again Taste it when I want to forget it On my teeth and tongue, is this all that I'm leaving with？ Over and over It's like the best kept secret that won't lie and it won't go and it won't die When everyone's indifferent it fades to insignificance Wish it never started Well that's twice now, I've done it again Losing all the things that made me？ Well that's a brave mistake and a funny way of letting go there we go now we're gone there we go Well that's a brave mistake and a funny way of letting go Up the stairs, he waits and the cast are counting the ways In which he tried to leave Up the stairs indifference begins to crumble and we're lucky to be alive |
| For The CrowsJoy Opposites | Joy Opposites | Joy Opposites | Joy Opposites | | Nothing really counts until it's left in pieces Nothing really hurts until you have to say goodbye and you don't know why But you do it Everything is left without that vital feeling Everything you touch it falls apart and starts to die and you don't know why But you do it Flatten down the edges, there's spaces in between I've got the thrill of the chase to get me by It's a simple 'erase' to dry the eyes Patterns on the ceiling, no others to be seen And when I'm given the space to take it on Have to give up the race before it's gone Like all the things I'll never be Discarded disappointments A broken secret left to keep but is there any point now？ Slipping past the questions and sick of what they mean But in the middle of getting out you find That there's little belief in reasons why Pissing on the embers like it matters to a dying flame Never took another but I wish it, back around again Missing all the meaning, nothing matters when you're all the same Give it up and let it go as long as you still have a name |
| SlipJoy Opposites | Joy Opposites | Joy Opposites | Joy Opposites | | On the run for cover Trip and let it pass and watch the days go by It's off my mind so Tell me there's another Way to make it turn around and mean what I I had in mind for.... You say it's not for nothing But it's easier to see And I swear I've had a piece of it from the start Give it up don't wait until it's Getting stuck in second gear and Never look like getting over Setting up to start again and Save it all for a rainy day When you realise it's gone anyway On the run for cover Trip and let it pass and watch the days go by It's off my mind so Tell me there's another Way to make it turn around and mean what I I had in mind for.... You say it's not for nothing But it's easier to see And I swear I've had a piece of it from the start Say it's not for nothing And believe that it'll be On the way to taking all of it back apart Back to the start |
| Cabeza*Joy Opposites | Joy Opposites | Joy Opposites | Joy Opposites | | Passing by the wayside just a moment from the pits Commas turn to full stops and it's looking like we've reached the end Bitten by the moonlight unaware of where we sit Letters slide off pages, rearrange themselves to 'start again' Too late it's past time for.... Can't say this, no line to see This doesn't fit any more I've counted all the places, forgotten all the ways in which it used to cover me Fell to the floor Don't want it to be wasted but giving up's the lesser of the evils that I see |
