Andy
C’mon don’t let me flail,
a snowball left to dance,
in rooms of darkest pale,
I always play the fool,
waiting for the pass,
maybe a path to smooth,
nothing more to say,
so little bodes pure chance,
when you go away,
I rage against your news,
lilac as a lonely fast,
why it feeds our feuds,
is my life a freight train,
brakes always getting slammed,
help me to the tollgate,
tell me what to do,
pull over make a stance,
you're nobody’s fool,
spare this fool a chance.

Zac
standing by my lamp,
a tree, a bridge, shaking,
waiting here like a tramp,
listen to some muted song,
who would ever negate,
my need to belong,
better take a chance,
always play this game,
take a trip to France,
hope I’m not wrong,
looking at the rain,
stream against the bog,
ask how much this path,
shuffles my remains,
no more rounds to cast,
someone will come along,
say Heh Pal your great,
give a coin or locket,
makes me praise each day.

Wouldn't it be great,
to forget what we owe,
celebrate the remains,
kick the speeding wrongs,
when pavements shin our bones,
within us all our song,
keep lookout for the rain,
tumble down naked slopes,
play amongst the drains,
we'll just carry on,
fly with all we know,
assert in being strong,
fling our time away,
shiny as the fallen snow,
freight arrives anyway,
I’ll never let you down,
or worry about the loan,
you have no need to frown,
we will always grow.

Living here's no paradise,
It never makes the news,
always tries to be nice,
might as well be space,
streets around the moon,
everyone waiting on some date,
you can’t order life,
tell it what to do,
take out all the spite,
our song still resonates,
a feeling for a tune,
carrying all our weight,
a place to make us smile,
no matter what we do,
beneath orange lamp lights,
this is what we create,
singing with the crew,
home fills the easy nights,
searching for our youth.

Verity
Sometimes I ask why,
can we ever atone,
stars pale before my eye,
might as well be Mars,
for all I know,
we're still that far,
dreams beam on other times,
winds ride blue and cold,
here but out of sight,
if it's love you want,
don't get thrown,
remain calm,
when you hear me cry,
put away the phone,
it’s not enough to sigh,
say we’ll buy another car,
to keep away the gnomes,
you don’t need a war,
to see the coming cyclone.

Unity
You scatter good deeds,
like pennies on the bar,
kisses don’t change anything,
blow all my pay,
leave the door ajar,
what a terrible waste,
days wrung out like these,
a message in a bottle,
anything to break free,
it’s a different age,
you’d drive a Packard,
now you're a chaepskate,
what do you believe,
in this warm hazy fog,
salt of childhood dreams,
dancing on the waves,
am I the stuff you're not,
please just keep me safe,
love amongst the stars.

I need you now,
stepping off this train,
that much is certain,
roll me like a stone,
won’t see anyone anyway,
on the street or Metro,
there is not a clue,
how it will go today,
seeing what you’re due,
you arranged the loans,
introduced me to that crew,
made me be strong,
now what’s new,
my voice flares and fades,
maybe it’s not your issue,
when I used to moan,
you tried erase,
everything I called a home,
It's me just the same.
