Noise 03:31
Noise They make me wake up early in the morning Brave the cold and the endless stories Till I feel old and tired of all this noise And they talk about ways to make me pay for the air I'm breathing Till there's nowhere left to hide Till there's nowhere left to hide. Who will ever believe me? I know a girl who lost her mind And she told me this is no way to live your life. Wherever I walk I watch the people Drag their cages just behind them as they smile their way through ordinary lies Don't you know, she sells all of her time? She sells all of her time. I tried to tell myself I got the whole thing wrong That every little boy and girl would have a world to rely on But it turns out too many folk want to steal from the young ones And I'll have to wait for another generation I'll have to wait for another generation I'll have to wait for another time.

Bright Blue Sky The last time I looked up From the bottom of an empty cup I saw the walls closing in like a bad dream. But there goes a magic wand And I’m taken to a place where the wind blows strong, And the echoes of your voice amaze me. It seems like time disappears in the face of a bright blue sky. It seems like time disappears in the face of a bright blue sky. You never know till you look back How many times you believe that Home will become home one of these days. It’s a lesson I refused to learn Till a fire broke out and the wheel turned, Home is anywhere you’re not afraid. It seems like time disappears in the face of a bright blue sky. It seems like time disappears in the face of a bright blue sky.

Samye Ling 03:49
Samye Ling When I'm caught in between faith and reason What harm can it do to believe, When thought is nothing more than a memory Floating through my head like a breeze? Yesterday I sat beside the river And lost myself with you under the tree, Safe, even though I know That time will disappear like waves under the sea. I believe I know you, Samye Ling, Even though I know I've never been. I close my eyes and there inside Is all that I'll ever need. They tell me this is real, I don't believe them. The only thing I know is how I feel. Two days in a row I saw the river, and you're the only one who knows where I've been. I believe I know you, Samye Ling, Even though I know I've never been. I close my eyes and there inside Is all that I'll ever need.

Knock Three Times I know a place where you can shake the dust off your shoes, Where you can walk in and say the summer of love still makes all the rules, And there’s a green door, and a red door, And sometimes there’s a white door, If you smell the coffee beans And you remember the dream Of who you thought you wanted to be, Knock three times and I’ll let you in. I know a place where you can sing with the wrong crowd, Where you can walk in and say that was then and this is now. There’s a green door, and a red door, And sometimes there’s a new door, If you smell the coffee beans And you remember the dream Of who you thought you wanted to be, Knock three times and I’ll let you in. There’s a green door, and a red door, And sometimes there’s a new door, If you smell the coffee beans And you remember the dream Of who you thought you wanted to be, Knock three times and I’ll let you in.

Change 04:53
Change I wanna find my way in the world But every second that I think about that, I think of you first, yeah. And it might look like I’m in full flight When really I get by On a guilt trip trying with a tight grip To be anything, anything alive And I like change, yeah. I like deviation and contradiction, Not silent refusal baby, When I wanna know why. I wanna see your side of the world, But in a corner of my resolute mind I know I’ll never learn, no. Cos as the time flies I write the same lines Over and over again With a tight lip just in case I’m hard hit By a temperate gaze, And I like change, yeah. I like deviation and contradiction, Not silent refusal baby, When I wanna know why. I like change, yeah. I like deviation and contradiction, Not silent refusal baby, When I wanna know why.

I'd Know 03:42
I’d Know Your eyes are not the same colour. Your cheeks too red to bear his name. Your shirt’s too tight around your shoulders. I used to think of you every day. I bear temptation in my ordinary soul And you tried to be mine, You said he’d never know. He makes my tea for me in the morning. He taught me how to let it all go. He knows my every contradiction. It took me years to let him know. You seem surprised that I refuse to take you home, After all of the years, You said he’d never know. Your eyes, yeah your eyes Gave up hope, And I watched you go. I like to kiss him and to look him in the eye So he knows he’s not alone, I said that I’d know, yeah, I said that I’d know.
