Fall Inside

They made you a fool of yourself but now you’ve had enough
They told you it’s safe to cross but now you’re wising up
It’s time to act now your tyres and your pints are flat
How about that? How about that? How about that?
Then you fall inside
Then you fall inside
Again, again
Then you fall inside
Then you fall inside
Again, again
Tell me when
You buck the trend
You hoped they wouldn’t notice but they had their doubts
Your eyes glazed over and your tongue was hanging out
The time came round to wonder, I smelled a rat
How about that? How about that? How about that?
Then you fall inside
Then you fall inside
Again, again
Then you fall inside
Then you fall inside
Again, again
I’ll be here when
You buck the trend

Tell Me Why

If you can find me
I’ll confess my crimes
Paint your name
On every disused train
To cartoonish symphonies
Social philosophies
Try again
To slow the wheels in vain
Tell me why, tell me why
I defy you to defy
The horizon’s behind us
History is timeless
The lights they flashed
But now they fade
Tell me why, tell me why
I defy you to defy
Tell me why, tell me why
I defy you to defy

I Just Thought I'd Say

When you ring the bell
Telling everyone else
To tighten the belt
Say what a thousand people
Thought they felt
A thousand different
Hands were dealt
With a thousand different stories to tell
All taking part
Taking your time but
Don’t take it too far
Report the crime and
They’ll put you behind bars
It’s a dangerous game then
Saying what you mean
You’re all calling them names when
You just disagree
And I’m so disappointed
I just thought I’d say
I just thought I’d say
The siren’s lust
Taking hope from the hopeful
From dawn ‘til dusk
No mercy for the survivors
Of the exodus
Just enduring until
A new home is found
In a corrugate jungle
Before they burned it down
And I’m so disappointed
I just thought I’d say
I just thought I’d say

I Should've Known

Give it time…
Give it time…
Do you know what I mean?
Do you know what I mean?
Do you know what I mean?
Our world’s falling apart
Right from the start
I was told it’s how things are
Throwing stones
I should’ve known
Give it time…
Give it time…
Do you know what I mean?
Do you know what I mean?
Do you know what I mean?
Our world’s falling apart
Right from the start
I was told it’s how things are
I was told it’s how things are...
Our world’s falling apart
Right from the start
I was told it’s how things are
Throwing stones
I should’ve known

A knock upon my door
Another uniform
No one here is alone
When they’re tapping all our phones
She looked down at her feet
And sang in prophecy:
‘A darker night than hell
Though the dawn is darker still’
Freedom is your gun
But I’m telling you my son
There’ll be no escape
While ever you’re the only one
The others they look on
They think that nothing’s wrong
Sat on the production line
Isn’t it all too convenient to be anything but a lie?
I want to tell you, I want to know
This line is just too much to tow
A change is gonna come around here
Give me TV and I’ll get by
Work and work until I die
They’ll have your name and number
And the pennies off your eyes
How can I accept
That it’s just the way it is?
I’ve got to serve my time
And dream of how I could have lived
The train’s derailed and the rules you’ll bend
Our dreams are made to break in the end
A change is gonna come around here
Death and glory or the status quo?
The status quo? The status quo? The status quo?
A change is gonna come around here
