SWEET SOUR (2012)

SWEET SOUR (2012)

Sweet Sour

Did you bite the hand that feeds you
Do you feel the need to talk about it
Now you're fighting for your corner
Sayin' that you oughta laugh about it
You should get a little braver
Do us all a favor, shout about it

Sweet sour [x3]

Pick up your stitches, better than your riches
Think about it
I know what you've been through
We don't really need to talk about it
It's just a little karma, tryin' to disarm ya
Shout about it

Sweet sour [x6]
Sour by the minute, but you're sweeter by the hour

You were none the wiser
Even though you tried to understand it
Try another spoonful, love is to be truthful
Dance around it
It's just a little karma, tryin' to disarm ya
Shout about it

Sweet sour [x2]
Sour by the minute, but you're sweeter by the hour

Sweet sour [x10]
Sour by the minute, but you're sweeter by the hour
 
 
Bruises

Take this life and this form
One and all
Wish that I could give you more
Gonna have to break the law

I've got more to give
Than I first thought to give
We'll have to make a pact
Or something like that

Something good
A little trouble in your neighbourhood
Or understanding that you're understood
Oh I kinda wish you were

Give yourself to the world, baby girl
Spread your wings and uncurl
To the world

You've got more to give
Than you first thought to give
We'll have to make a pact
Or something like that
Or something like that

Something good
A little trouble in your neighbourhood
Or understanding that you're understood
Oh I kinda wish you were

Something real
Another feeling that you never feel
Another reason that you wanna be alive
Just to watch the bruises heal

Something good
A little trouble in your neighbourhood
Or understanding that you're understood
Oh I kinda wish you were

Something real
Another feeling that you never feel
Another reason that you wanna be alive
Just to watch the bruises heal
 
 
Lay My Head Down

Was I asleep did you save me from disaster
Wake up and tell me I'm just imagining
Thought I would brave it cause I don't wanna live in doubt

Dreamt of escape but I'm nowhere near the feeling
Fell from a high but I never hit the ground
Can't hold the weight of your words heavy on my mind

So I'm gonna lay my head down on your shoulder and run,
Keep it away from my soul, I'm not holding it all
I'm gonna lay my head down on your shoulder and run,
All that we know will get old, and with you I'll unfold
I'm gonna lay my head down

Open your hand I know your heart line's the deepest
You will replace it a new love you will find
Say all you like but I'll make it better on my own

So I'm gonna lay my head down on your shoulder and run,
Keep it away from my soul, I'm not holding it all
I'm gonna lay my head down on your shoulder and run,
All that we know will get old, and with you I'll unfold
I'm gonna lay my head down

So I'm gonna lay my head down on your shoulder and run,
Keep it away from my soul, I'm not holding it all
I'm gonna lay my head down on your shoulder and run,
All that we know will get old, and with you I'll unfold
I'm gonna lay my head down
 
 
The Devil Takes Care Of His Own

If you flip the rug then you'll reveal an ugly seed
But the strength of 10 000 will never weaken me
With just like a razor blade you carve me half and half
Oh I'd better wait to kill the time

Didn't you read it in the detail
That if you're idle then you will fail
Now you wanna know an answer
Well if you dance then you're a dancer

The devil takes care of his own

Do you dare to speak his name there's evil at the root
Cruel or kind it's on your mind, go on and give the dice a roll
Never did believe in saying fortunes are foretold
Easy come and easy they will go

Didn't you read it in the detail
That if you're idle then you will fail
Now you wanna know an answer
Well if you dance then you're a dancer
Didn't you read about it?

The devil takes care of his own

Didn't you read it in the detail?
That if you're idle then you will fail
Now you wanna know an answer
Well if you dance then you're a dancer
Didn't you read it in the detail?
That if you're idle then you will fail
Now you wanna know an answer
Well if you dance then you're a dancer

The devil takes care of his own
 
 
Wanderluster

You've seen the world
And all the glory
Is what you want
The what you need
And when you go
Uh, you're gonna find out
All that you were
Was left to me

Wanderluster
Wander yeah
Wanderluster
Wander yeah

What you forget
I still remember
But far away
Not long ago
When you return uhh
I will be waiting
In spite of all
That's gone before

[2x]
Wanderluster
Wander yeah
Wanderluster
Wander yeah

Wander luster
Wander luster
 
 
Navigate

Everybody's back in town
Give me the armour and let me prepare
It can be easy or difficult, to steer
The heart and breath stops death, cheats death
It's clear
Time and tide wait for no man
Slowly realise as fast as you can
Thought I saw a glimpse of how you were at five
Ain't it strange how these things take you by, surprise

We are drifting on a deep sea
And I can't navigate the stars like my father
Oh we're drifting out to sea
Into deep water
If we're scared it puts us under

The more you talk the less you mean
You told me that when I was just seventeen
When it sinks in you will not always be here
Funny how all your small worries disappear

We are drifting on a deep sea
And I can't navigate the stars like my father

[x6:]
Oh we're drifting out to sea
Into deep water

If we're scared it puts us under

If you're thinking
What you know is
True then tell them
Let them notice
If your time comes
Ask the question
Were you tender
To those you hold dear

We are drifting on a deep sea
And I can't navigate the stars like my father

[x4:]
Oh we're drifting out to sea
Into deep water...
 
 
You're Not Pretty But You Got It Goin' On

You're tone deaf but you're singing a song,
You feel lost but you know where you're from
You're not pretty but you got it going on
Your head swims in electric blues
If all fails, you can't lose

You lie low but your cover is blown
You turned on but there's nobody home
You think straight but your mind is not your own
You feedback with the static shock
Your ears ring, your knees knock

I got all that I wanted
I got all that I need
I've got a plan for the future
And that's what I believe but my fingers are cold
She's so old
And I cannot believe that you wanna be here
On your own, in this cradle of love

You're tone deaf but you're singing a song,
You feel lost but you know where you're from
You're not pretty but you got it going on

You're tone deaf but you're singing a song,
You feel lost but you know where you're from
You're not pretty but you got it going on
 
 
Hometowns

In hometowns, suburban and transient
Romances, just like yours, are bound again,
To all you lovers, gather around you,
To see what you have become

No acting, while you're here, a lonely road
It's just kids having, more kids for
Fear of being alone
To all you lovers, gather around you,
To see what you have become

I was looking for the one
But I guess you'll do

No acting, while you're here, a lonely road
It's just kids having, more kids for
Fear of being alone
To all you lovers, gather around you,
To see what you have become

I was looking for the one
But I guess you'll do

In hometowns, suburban and transient
Romances, just like yours happen again.
 
 
Lies

All that you started will carry on, honey
It's wrote in a letter [?] upon, you fool me
You're givin' it up and you're movin' on
Cause you wanna be free
You're gettin' so easy to read

Lies are the truth
That you tell to yourself
Watch other fools
Who can take what they're dealt

You say it again just to rub it in, baby
How can you not have a little fun, doll face honey
Givin' it up and you're movin' on
Cause you wanna be free
You're gettin' so easy to read

Lies are the truth
That you tell to yourself
Lies are the truth
That you tell to yourself
Watch other fools
Who can take what they're dealt
Lies are the truth
That you tell to yourself

Lies are the truth
That you tell to yourself
Watch other fools
Who can take what they're dealt
 
 
Close To Nowhere

Though I long to,
Though I try to,
Figure it out I'm told,
There's no way of knowing.
Still I long to,
Long to know.

Hold on through it,
Pray I'll fool it,
Loosing it all I'm told,
At the rate I'm going.
Never learning,
Never close.

I will prove it,
Hold on to it,
Give it my heart and soul,
With the chance I'll loose it.
When I find you,
I will know.

Next to nothing,
Far from over,
Close to nowhere.
 
 
Such A Fool

Don't you know you're such a fool
To keep on actin' like you do
Don't you know you're such a fool
To keep on actin' like you do

You're a fool to play things cool
When you've got everything to lose

You hurt the ones you love the most
Every time you lose your head
You hurt the ones you love the most
Every time you lose your head

You shoot them down when they're too close
And you've lost another friend

'Told the girl you love the best
She can never get inside of you
'Told the girl you love the best
She can never get inside of you

And you started to regret
And you began to think things through

(Ooh)

Oh what a stupid thing to do [x4]
