Conquer The World

Smoke hangs heavy in the air
Rain beats down without a care
The pair reflecting me
Do I dare test connectivity, coz
I've had enough of it
The morning after shit
And I can't believe I haven't started this before
I think I'll conquer the world today
And nobody will see it coming
Nobody will see me coming
I'll conquer the world today
And nobody will see it coming
Not for miles and miles and miles away
Could I trust a secret to you now
Filled with every reason how
I vowed just to keep face
Instead I've found that I'm out of place, but
This is the end of it
No more all talk bullshit
And I can't believe I haven't tried for something more
Something more
[Chorus]
So I think I'll try for something more
I'm so sick of knocking on these closed doors
And if not now, then when?
Yeah if not now then when...
So I think I'll conquer the world
I think I'll conquer the world today
And nobody will see it coming
Nobody will see me coming
I'll conquer the world today
And nobody will see me coming, no
So kiss goodbye to the old me
I'm falling entirely
Into a new life, into a new mindframe
I think I'll conquer the world
And live up to the sake of my name

City Boy

Take a drink, take the edge off yeah
Take a pill, take a deep breath, yeah
Well if you can't keep up I'll lend a hand
We'll drink whiskey in the promised land
I'm a bottom of the middle class city boy
By the skin of my teeth I get my joy, yeah
Whoa, City Boy, yeah, I'm a city boy
Take it slow, take your clothes off, yeah
Take your time, take your dreams on, yeah
Well it gets like a whirlwind in my head
Hell I'd much rather be with you instead
I'm a bottom of the middle class city boy
By the skin of my teeth I get my joy, yeah
Whoa, City Boy, yeah, I'm a city boy
I love the country, but my feet have seen more pavement in their time
That sits just right with me,
You know I love the way the stars look
Through the powerlines
I love to get away
But I can't shake the city from my veins
City boy, yeah, I'm a city boy
Well there may come a day the city dies
Till that day, here I'll reside
I'm a bottom of the middle class city boy
By the skin of my teeth I get my joy yeah
Ah how, City Boy, yeah, I'm a city boy
Whoa, City Boy, yeah, I'm a city boy

You & I
03:05

You and I, we make such a pair
Full of moments and secrets that no one else will share
The feeling of life is so so strong with you
Something no hardship can undo
Coz when all is said and done
We could count the reasons, one by one
But what matters most, what I believe
Is we had love and we tried
And I never will forget you and I
So, don't shed those heavy tears
See I's like to use my voice to let you forget your fears
And I'll love you forever, in whatever way I can
Coz you love the core of who I am
[Chorus]
You and I
Coz when all is said and done
We could count the reasons, one by one
But what matters most, what I believe
Is we had love and we tried
We have love, we have light
So laugh out loud if you cry, for you and I
And I never will forget, you and I

Day To Day
05:44

Another day, flashes slowly by
I send my wishes to hang kite high
Flying low, flying low
Another night on the scarlet pout
Dollar delicious get your best dress out,
But cut it low, cut it low
Day to day, night to night
I follow my heart like a fool
Lay my down, cast away and I'll
Be in euphoria soon
Day to day
Another night, sinks into sunset
Put on those high heels or your lad kit how you like it
Time to go, time to go
[Chorus]
Day to day, day to day
Fall back to the shadows,
Back where her eyes glow
Back to the shadows my girl
Day to day, night to night
I follow my heart like a fool
Lay my down, cast away and I'll
Be in euphoria soon
Day to day, hour by hour
I'm seconds away from the thrill
Lay me down, cast away
I've got no more cause to be still
Day to day...

Ghosts
04:25
|
|||
|
Come on fall to the other side,
Follow those blurry lines
With a drink or a bottle in hand
The scene of another kind
Our own little signs,
Shadow of sin from a promised land, so
Hold your lover, hold your friends high
Make no mistake we live and die by the night, if you're
Searching with no result, had all your answers culled
Bear in mind your time could lie with us
We are ghosts, look for us when the sun goes down
Come on pick up a subtle line,
Look for the morning light
The stars light out path and out plans
Dreams of another kind,
From the phantom side
Dead on arrival, hearts in our hands and
Hold your lover, hold your friends high
Make no mistake we live and die by the night, if you're
Tired of holding grey, feel like you'll fade away,
Bear in mind your time could lie with us
[Chorus]
We are ghosts
Get your fix steal, beg or borrow,
Drink and smoke like there's no tomorrow,
We are ghosts, gho-hoooooooo-ohh-a-whoooa-st's
:P
