Crowds are gathering at the picture house The line for the movie’s running all through town They can wait, they can wait, they can wait, for the picture to start They can wait, they can wait, they can wait, it’s part of the fun Telling stories that you wouldn’t believe So confusing tell me what will it be Take it all, take it all, take it all to the grave with you Take it all, take it all, take it all, I wanna be brave Simple sitting in the sunlight, looking at the shoreline, as the movie fades away Thinking ‘bout the good times surfing on a high tide that’s pulling away You told me your secrets just to hear how it sounds You wanted to speak it just to hear it out loud You’re allowed, you’re allowed, you’re allowed to make a mistake or two You’re allowed, you’re allowed, your allowed to push me away Simple sitting in the sunlight, looking at the shoreline, as the movie fades away Thinking ‘bout the good times surfing on a high tide that’s pulling away Pulling away, pulling away, you’re pulling away Pulling away, pulling away, you’re pulling away Lights are lifting at the picture houses The movie’s over and the truth come out Oh I will, oh I will, yes I will pay the price for it Oh I will, oh I will, yes I will pay the price Simple sitting in the sunlight, looking at the shoreline, as the movie fades away Thinking ‘bout the good times surfing on a high tide that’s pulling away Simple sitting in the sunlight, looking at the shoreline, as the movie fades away Thinking ‘bout the good times surfing on a high tide that’s pulling away

Since When 04:55
As the waters tumbles down rocky land, and the wind whips through the leaves The sound of rain as it trickles down, feels like it’s reaching out to me They are asking that we remember them as our cities gallop forth We’re taking more than we’re giving, drowning silence with noise Since when is the world not enough? The mystery within doesn’t please us? I am gazing out over Notting Hill from the life that I built At the endless sprawl of the people’s will and the Grenfell tower of guilt I wonder ‘when did I turn away from the earth and soul within?’ I was silent while these things were replaced with the glamour of zone one Since when is the world not enough? The mystery within doesn’t please us? Now I mostly don’t give to charity, except for ones that I trust And I want to help everyone in need, but I can only give so much Our times are so full of turbulence in our minds and in the streets And when even one makes a difference, many more will join with me Since when is the world not enough? The mystery within doesn’t please us?

Help 05:32
Ages fighting, writing, writing Taking nightly doses, doses Can’t sleep, can’t think, hardly hearing Almost living, breathing, seething Even though I see you when you’re falling, falling down I am here to find the words you’re calling, calling out Help, help, help, help Slowly leaving, waking, shaking Turning back to demons, demons Even though I see you when you’re falling, falling down I am here to find the words you’re calling, calling out Help, help, help, help Make the most of people, people Fleeting moments, drops in oceans Speaking words to free you, feel you I am here to love you, love you Even though I see you when you’re falling, falling down I am here to find the words you’re calling, calling out Love, love, love, love

So Divine 02:38
Strong enough to be ready to receive Hands that I can feel unwind and release Saying you are fine, you’re on my mind, you’re so divine and intertwined with me Walking down a path of life discovering Showing that the past can lie in history Saying you are fine, you’re on my mind, you’re so divine and intertwined Realise that you’re inside of me Countless years have gone by lifting curses to the sky Playing tunes out of the car, living life now as a child, as a child Is there fire in your heart? Is there fire in your heart anymore? Echoes in my mind, reaching out through time Now I take my turn upon this wheel of life Saying you are fine, you’re on my mind, you’re so divine and intertwined I realise that you’re inside of me

If you couldn’t lie you’d have to get it right every single time you were around You couldn’t try to play your tricks on us, it wouldn’t be enough to pull us down And we would break into harmony, it would set is free And every word you said would resonate, there would be no hate And I know how it goes, yeah we all tell lies and hide, in disguise But the truth it will show ‘cause we already know how it goes, it is already so Speak, speak If you couldn’t lie there would be no war, no reason for that We would be fine, a little vulnerable, we’d be honourable too And I have faith that truth is good for us, we can handle it At least we’d know that ground we’re standing on is solid And I know how it goes, yeah we all tell lies and hide, in disguise But the truth it will show ‘cause we already know how it goes, it is already so Speak, speak If you couldn’t lie we would give freely, without worry or regret ‘Cause we’d know that if we’ve fallen down, everyone around would have our back Speak, speak, speak, speak If you couldn’t lie

You And I 03:28
Spinning out into your day again Having made all your mistakes Do we lose or do we win this time? Can you learn to trust a friend? Give it time and rise, be the phoenix flying into the light It is worth the fight In a world that’s getting harder we’ll change it for the better you and I Feelings rush into your veins again Smiling softly through your eyes A little magic has returned this time But if you would lose your sight I will be there when the world is dark as hell I care, we will work on this together and change it for the better you and I Give it time and rise, be the phoenix flying into the light It is worth the fight In a world that’s getting harder we’ll change it for the better you and I

You picked me up from a wreckage, cleaned my face and washed me down You weren’t ashamed of my condition, you said everybody sometimes needs a hand Taught me to love, taught me to laugh Told me I would always be enough, and now I know That I’m not here to be anyone but me You gave me hope there’d be a future, that something good would come around I’d have to work, nothing is free now, but labour is what lifts me off the ground Taught me to wait, taught me to stay Showed me mercy, and told me That I’m not here to be anyone but me You gave me life, I’ll always be grateful, you breathed a little fire into my soul I’ll keep it warm, you know this is sacred, something that cannot be bought or sold Taught me to love, taught me to laugh Told me I would always be enough, and now I know That I’m not here to be anyone but me

Simple times, chasing never-ending memories of what we leave behind Every night, dancing with our shadows, playing with reflections of our time Tell me now, do you find yourself in circles going round? Wishing that you could still be with us when you’re burning out? We’re still here, we’re still here In the past, when life drove you crazy you’d be trying to be somewhere else But with time, cherishing your freedom, finding there’s no room for regret Tell me now, do you find yourself in circles going round? Wishing that you could still be with us when you’re burning out? We’re still here, we’re still here There’s a secret simple way, open up and let it come to you Memories you can’t replace, when you need us we will be with you We’re still here, we’re still here, we’re still here, we’re still here

Air 04:20
I can’t retain a smile on my face while this disgrace plays out You think you are outside the law doing what you want without thought Look around and see the air we breathe Is the same air for you and me What gives you the right to say you don’t need to care It’s the same air, the same, the same, the same, you should be ashamed At times it seems evil exists, rules our time, and nobody minds Not a soul complains, too scared to change the order of things, and so it goes on Look around and see the air we breathe Is the same air for you and me What gives you the right to say you don’t need to care It’s the same air, the same, the same, the same, you should be ashamed You’ll be a fool standing alone on top of the hill with no-one to tell How you poisoned the air, abusing your power, ignoring the cost to everyone else

Life moves around yourself, as you move around the edge, of a little point in space And when you change those flashes full of life touch you on the inside, and you do not remain So keep those treasured people ear, a thousand memories so clear, don’t compromise your way ‘Cause you get one time pon the earth, time that isn’t worth anyone who doesn’t spin like you So don’t waste your time with those who don’t know who you are Let in the light, ‘cause you are free, free Life is a million years young, and million times around the sun, you breathe it every day And we have freedom to remain with people who are vain, or to make a little change So don’t waste your time with those who don’t know who you are Let in the light, ‘cause you are free, free So step forward into life I want to see you shining bright, brighter than the sun And the path laid before your eyes will open up so wide if you should decide To not waste your time with those who don’t know who you are Let in the light, ‘cause you are free, free, free, free

Why are we afraid of taking the next steps in our lives? We settled on a course and we’re running out of time Why don’t we try just to change our direction? This path is wrong don’t be afraid to reject it ‘Cause the city’s burning down, motorways are jammed And they are spying on our every conversation Where are we, where are we heading, heading? Where are we, where are we heading, heading? Some of us resist, some of us take a different path Because we have a choice, doing what we can to change our course But who are you to say we must go down with this ship? We’re sinking fast because of things that you did So while the cities burn, and policies are jammed Here we are trying to turn this thing around Where are we, where are we heading, heading? Where are we, where are we heading, heading? Now the time has come for a peaceful revolution Some of us are now already living a solution We’re heralding the brilliance of a new direction We won’t let you decide the future of generations While every second counts we’re watching the tides turn As science comes around and backs our intuition Where are we, where are we heading, heading? Where are we, where are we heading, heading? Where are we, where are we heading, heading? Where are we, where are we heading, heading, heading, heading?

If you have a home to go to, a door that’s always open for you, family and friends who know your name Living in an ever-after, spending all your time together, knowing things will always be the same And if you find that you’ve nowhere to go, all that you need is right here For you, for you, for you For you, for you, for you If your past is out to get you, you’re struggling to find a way through, losing strength while fighting your way back Take a minute to imagine, words are nothing without action, step away ‘cause opposites attract And if you find that you’ve nowhere to go, all that you need is right here For you, for you, for you For you, for you, for you You’ll find it, don’t worry, you’ll find it, don’t worry For you, for you, for you For you, for you, for you
