The Resistance

You’ll see us standing on the corner
They’ve got us waiting in line
You know they treat us like criminals
Until they get us inside
It’s akin to abuse
Wrong shoes, wrong accent
Rules that we could never live by
“Your top lip’s a bit dusty mate, maybe this isn’t your night”
Another sucker with a lovely face
I wanna soften that shine
It’s not enough for the exhibition
It’s not enough just to pass the time
It’s not enough just to keep your distance
We’re joining the resistance
It’s not enough, it’s not enough
It’s not enough, it’s not enough
Now all the creeps are getting physical
And they cast their nets wide
But when the crowd becomes invisible
The crowd becomes tight
Now how can we refuse an old-school bust-up to even up the different sides?
“Your left hook’s a bit rusty mate, maybe this isn’t your fight”
It’s not enough for the exhibition
It’s not enough just to pass the time
It’s not enough just to keep your distance
We’re joining the resistance
It’s not enough, it’s not enough
It’s not enough, it’s not enough
It’s not enough
It’s not enough
It’s not enough
We’re joining the resistance
It’s not enough for the exhibition
It’s not enough just to pass the time
It’s not enough just to keep your distance
We’re joining the resistance
It’s not enough, we’re joining the resistance
It’s not enough, we’re joining the resistance

Getting On It
03:22
|

|
Another kiss, another manic affair
An addiction to making a noise
We take our chances on a wicked attempt to be messed up and one of the boys
We make decisions on sneaking suspicions
Cover our wounds up and head to the floor
You’ll never see there’s a violence in me ‘til it’s dressed up and out of the door
‘Til the worst of us has come to the fore
Hard to believe the feeling is still mine
Just underneath the surface, some other guy
I’m on my knees but I’ll be running all night
Don’t come find me
I’ll be alright
That’s the way we want it
Tonight we’re getting on it
Mild-mannered gentlemen
Inevitable sentiment
Once upon a real good time
You’re not just leaning on it
You took the wheels off it!
And now it’s time to get loose
For the story’s just a lie if we didn’t try
Hard to believe it’s been such a long time
Another leaf can turn in some other time
I’m on my knees but I’ll be running all night
Don’t come find me
I’ll be alright
That’s the way we want it
Tonight we’re getting on it
Hard to believe the feeling is still mine
Just underneath the surface, some other guy
I’m on my knees but I’ll be running all night
Don’t come find me
I’ll be alright
That’s the way we want it
Tonight we’re getting on it
Don’t come find me
I’ll be alright
That’s the way we want it
Tonight we’re getting on it

Numbers

Give the man a little credit
It’s not the way she’s supposed to have said it
Coming here and telling you lot I’ve got a tilt on, I’ve got a problem
Strange news this abuse
You know that I never lose
I’m always up more than down
If nothing else, can’t you tell?
I’m a professional
It’s not just on Sundays ‘cos I’m still here on Mondays
When the phone rings now I let the phone ring out
I keep it clinical ‘cos it’s critical given the space I need now
I don’t care it’s a lonely affair ‘cos the numbers will see me through
And they do
I believe in these numbers ‘cos they’ve been good to me
I believe
I do, I believe!
I believe in these numbers ‘cos they’ve been good to me
They’ve been good to me
They’ve been good!
You know I wasn’t born this lucky
It takes years to get this cocky
Skimming off the numbers from the people I hang ‘round
I take birthdays, anniversaries, anything that works for me
Letting go of family whose numbers let me down
And I say cut down these heathens with their aversion to adhesion
Killing my community with their senseless incredulity
These are numbers, not feelings
They’re the facts that fuel my dealings
And I take solace, I take pride
In how well they’ve done me by
But if there’s anything in all of this
If there’s one thing we shouldn’t miss
It’s belief in those numbers
That belief is a beautiful thing
I believe in these numbers ‘cos they’ve been good to me
I believe
I do, I believe!
I believe in these numbers ‘cos they’ve been good to me
They’ve been good to me
They’ve been good!
Belief is a beautiful thing...
I believe in these numbers
I believe
I do, I believe!
‘cos they’ve been good to me

Between Antipodes
04:27

Caught up in curtains, peering into the night
Cos we like to play detective like we’re starting a fight
No new perspective got us changing our minds
And we know
We need no reason for this
We need no reason for this
Load up on burdens on the way to get by
Local collective thinks we’re wasting our time
For love nor money could we close the divide
Cos we’ve all got the fear and we all love the ceremony
No need to get out
Tear into me
No time to breathe
I’m ignoring your contentions ‘til you’re next to me
If we’ve heard it all already
I’ll be knocking regularly now
Can’t help the reasonable, we’ll soon become invisible
Dance with me
I think we’re ready for neutrality
I think we’re ready if we agree to disagree
And we’ll be ready if you
Dance with me
Dance with me
Between antipodes
We never said it but the words were implied
There’s no time for illusions
This audience takes the prize
Their tunnel vision cuts its way through the night
Cos we’ve all got the fear and we all love the ceremony
There’s no need to get out so I say...
Tear into me
No time to breathe
I’m ignoring your contentions ‘til you’re next to me
If we’ve heard it all already
I’ll be knocking regularly now
Can’t help the reasonable, we’ll soon become invisible
Dance with me
I think we’re ready for neutrality
I think we’re ready if we agree to disagree
And we’ll be ready if you
Dance with me
Dance with me
Between antipodes
Dance with me
I think we’re ready for neutrality
I think we’re ready if we agree to disagree
And we’ll be ready if you
Dance with me
Dance with me
Between antipodes
Stop worrying the world’s all right
It’s just a scribble on the wall outside
It’s nothing if it’s not your fight
Stop worrying, stop worrying
Stop worrying the world’s all right
It’s just a scribble on the wall outside
It’s nothing if it’s not your fight
Stop worrying, stop worrying
Dance with me
I think we’re ready if we agree to disagree
Dance with me
Dance with me
Between antipodes

Colours Red

My truth be told
I step my feet in aggravation
How’re we to know?
It’s just how we were raised
So long ago
So taken by the tempers we have frayed
Long gone days...
I crossed the ocean
Followed me, did the rage
I tell myself “Must always act your age”
Back on the ropes and no more me left to break
I didn’t want it, didn’t want it anyway!
Truth be told
This whole life’s an education
Keep control
Forever and ever
Don’t let go!
I guess if all the colours bled
We’d only see red
My truth be told
We’ve spent these years so agitated
I think we’re ready to blow
I guess if all the colours bled
I think we’d only see the red
My truth be told
I step my feet in aggravation
Forever more
The conscience we will waive
I got a feeling if we’d even get closer then we’d be back to turn on our own
I crossed the ocean
Followed me, did the rage
I tell myself “Must always act your age”
Back on the ropes and no more me left to break
I didn’t want it, didn’t want it anyway!
Truth be told
This whole life’s an education
Keep control
Forever and ever
Don’t let go!
I guess if all the colours bled
We’d only see red
I guess if all the colours bled
My truth be told
I think we’d only see the red
I guess if all the colours bled
My truth be told
I think we’d only see the red

The Sea

You tore me to pieces
You tore the pieces black and blue
And when I figured it out
I thought I’d like to tear a piece off of you
You couldn’t bear to release me
You drove me undercover
Dancing with no other
And now the storm rains sweet
My torture’s complete
We’re going back to the sea
Back to the sea
You’ve taken everything away from me
We’re going back to the deep blue sea
Back to the sea...
I wanted nothing but to look in your eyes and to tell you you could be so cruel
I choose to forget the worst of the lies
Because forgiveness is the key to the truth
For someone trying to please me
You held me underwater
Tried to make me smaller
But I could not be drowned
I swallowed it down
We’re going back to the sea
Back to the sea
You’ve taken everything away from me
We’re going back to the deep blue sea
Back to the sea...
You’ve taken everything
You’ve taken everything
You’ve taken everything away from, away from me
You’ve taken everything
You’ve taken everything
You’ve taken everything away from, away from me
We’re taking everything
We’re taking everything
We’re taking everything away from, away from here
We’re taking everything
We’re taking everything
We’re taking everything
And going back to the sea...
Back to the sea
You’ve taken everything away from me
We’re going back to the deep blue sea
Back to the sea...
Back to the sea
