LYRICS:

Wild Mountain Thyme:
​
Oh the summer time has come
And the tree's are sweetly bloomin'
And the wild mountain thyme
Grows around the bloomin' heather
Will ye go lassie go
​
And we'll all go together
To pull wild mountain thyme
All around the bloomin' heather
Will ye go lassie go
​
I will build my love a bower
By yon cool crystal fountain
And around it I will pile
All the wild flowers of the mountain
Will ye go lassie go
​
And we'll all go together...
​
But if my true love won't come
Then I'll surely find another
To pull wild mountain thyme
All around the bloomin' heather
Will ye go lassie go
​
And we'll all go together...
​
Quiet Mind:
​
That was bright lipstick you wore
And that was one look more
Than I can take with my ego
With my fragile heart getting blown apart
By someone new, yeah I’m a fool…
When I say I’m fine I’m fine
It’s just the lights are going down...
Gotta stop listening to myself
Gotta stop listening to the same old lies
There’s gotta be something more to this life
Gotta be more than this 9 till 5, 6, 7, 8, or 9
Yes I’m fine
Just miss my thoughts of you in my quiet, quiet mind.
Trying to not get too attached now
Cause I’ve been off that bridge before
Sitting there, with my confusion
With the lines I’ve crossed turning into knots
That come un-done
I’ve come un-done
Have you ever walked away and just missed some... missed someone?
One more time I’m gonna shout this
One more time and then I’m gone
THIS IS MY OWN PERSONAL PROBLEM
For every girl I’ve ever known
In this world, with our feelings
And our box-box ticks and our endless lists of what to do
Yeah I’m a fool…
When I say I’m fine I’m fine
It’s just the lights are going down,
Gotta stop listening to myself
Gotta stop listening to the same old lies
There’s gotta be something more to this life
Gotta be more than this 9 till 5, 6, 7, 8, or 9
Yes I’m fine
Just miss my thoughts of you in my quiet, quiet mind.

Little Obsession:
Well I remember what your sister told me Christmas eve
Secret words that your mother said about catching me
And I wish that she never told me cause I can’t get you out of my mind
Long hair and the youngest child it conflicts with conclusions of mine
But I know yes I know...
With the light in your eyes and the smile on your face
And the tears that you cry when your boyfriends away
The way that you laugh it’s the silence you hide
I’m miss-understanding just what you’re like...
It’s always all or nothing for me normally nothing at all
Been asked some pretty awkward questions lately like is it a girl or a boy you’re looking for
And I don’t know what I’m supposed to say or what I’m supposed to do
Guess I’ll wait for another week or so or a year or two for you...
With the light in your eyes…
Sometimes I dream of dying but it’s never alone
And I wish I could sing you a proper love song or pen you a pretty poem
If I could've done things a little different then I wouldn't have got involved
I would've turned my back on your sister and never listened to her but I know...
Inside every bone in your body kindness falls
There’s a heart full of patience and forgiveness and so much more
Gotta get over this little obsession cause it’s hopeless and it’s wrong
I never meant to get this encompassed I never meant to fall for you
With the light in your eyes…

The Trigger:
When the snow falls on the windows
When you’re back in your home town
When the wind blows on the emperor’s new clothes
Please don’t fall in line
Cause sometimes the butterfly flies away
And sometimes the soldier dies in vain
Next time that I’m going to pull the trigger
I’ll see your face in front of me
Next time that you’re looking into the river
Remember how good it is to breathe
I remember waiting for you
The conversations late at night
Your thoughts and dreams on everything
And the words you said to save my life
The words you said to save my life
When the snow goes If you’re hit by low blows
Will you call on me?
When the wind dies If you’re feeling fragile
Remember when we were free
Sometimes the rainbow turns to blue
And sometimes we don’t get to choose
Next time that I’m going to pull the trigger
I’ll see your face in front of me
Next time that you’re looking into the river
Remember how good it is to breathe
I remember how you scared me
How you’re the opposite to me
With your thick skin and your opinions
How you were lonely but you were free
How you were lonely but you were free
​
Sad Lost Selfish Son:
​
Step outside the world
Forgetting what you said to me
As you left me as you were walking away
Over your shoulder something cold like
We were never meant to be
There’s no chemistry
You left me stranded empty handed
Twisted into you
Fading into you
Where is the love when you need it the most
Where are you when I’m counting the cost of my lonely freedom…lonely freedom
Did I choose to be alone
Did I choose to be alone
So, Piss on everything
Cause I’m a sad lost selfish son
Cars crashed just 18
Locked out and the needles in
And I can feel it now I can feel it now
It’s cutting through my skin
Over your shoulder something cold like
There’s no love left within this heart of mine
You left me stranded empty handed
Twisted into you
Fading into you
Nothing without you
The back door slams and it blows out the candle
Like a vision she waltzes down the path and over the horizon
Disappearing into the mist of my imagination
All she ever was - was my fascination
But she’s gone…
So, Piss on everything…
​
​
Irish Charm:
Walking away again like a boxer growing old
Sound of lies and tears are falling and they’re landing on the floor
So hello nasty girl and goodbye beastie boy
It’s the end of me a friend so offend and turn away
I’m coming live from New York live right into you
I don’t know if I’m a fool if I’m a fool for liking you
Bring on your liquid skin and your Irish charms
Cause I’ve been waiting for you
Been waiting for you…
Well I don’t know what I should do
Turn my attentions to another girl
But it’s not that easy now as she’s walking out the door
So I try not to cry or to show to anybody that I care
I close my eyes and I sleep a little and I drink a couple more
I’m coming live from New York…
Ain’t it strange the way things change
The way dreams fade away
I see you now different somehow
But I still feel the same about you…

Roadtrip:
​
We're going roadtrippin', down the coast
We gotta VW, driving fast
We're flicking V signs at the cops we see
​
We're going roadtrippin', come with us
We've been giving up, giving f*cks
We're going roadtrippin' down the coast tonight
​
It's like the 60's we're getting high
It's like the 70's in California
We're like the Beach Boys we get around ra-ra-ra round
​
I kissed this blonde girl with black make-up
She sang a sad song about a poster boy
That she loved and touched but then he walked away
​
Picked up this old guy he was flying high
Called him Iggy Pop he was the passenger
And we sang along na-na-na na-na-naaaa
​
We're going roadtrippin', down the coast
We gotta VW, driving fast
We're flicking V signs at the cops we see
​
We're going roadtrippin', come with us
We've been giving up, giving f*cks
We're going roadtrippin' down the coast tonight
​
Sun's gone down, it's getting cold
Gotta turn around you gotta go home
And get a mortgage and a sh*tty job that pays
​
Or put the foot down, carry on
Burn the map, follow the sun
We're going roadtrippin' down the coast tonight
​
We're going roadtrippin'...
