Castaways
02:39

|
Stranded on an island,
full of many souls just like me.
Seperate ourselves,
Although that's not the cure the misery.
Fighting to stand on the tallest of hills.
To scream, to scream and scream.
Here it out for the Castaways,
That wish away all of their days.
Original from the start,
You really are a work of heart that's needed.
Locked out of your comfort zone,
It's hard to keep up with the rest.
Distance widens,
I know it's tough to live life differently.
Fighting to stand on the tallest of hills,
To scream, to scream and scream.
Here it out for the Castaways,
that wish away all of their days.
Original from the start,
You really are a work of heart that's needed.
Kicking and screaming,
Fighting not failing.
Kicking and screaming,
laughing not crying.

Number One Outlaw

It's one of those days where I'm dragging my feet and I'm throwing my weight around.
It's one of those days where I'm miserable at best.
A fly in a web,
I'm caught in something that I don't enjoy.
Stop, look and listen.
I'll be who I want to be.
Like a whirlwind,
Spiralling out of control.
Like a car crash,
I'm such a mess.
Like a train wreck,
Like a test subject,
That's been locked away for good,
Locked away for good.
Saying I'm okay is a disguise for my shadowy tracks.
My main goal in sight,
I'll put up a fight until I score.
Stop, look and listen.
I'll be who I want to be.
Like a whirlwind,
Spiralling out of control.
Like a car crash,
I'm such a mess.
Like a train wreck.
Like a test subject,
That's been locked away for good,
locked away for good.
I want to see the world from a new light.
I know there's more to life.
I'm the number one outlaw,
I'll break the rules they're setting me.
Like a whirlwind,
Spiralling out of control,
Like a car crash,
I'm such a mess.
Like a train wreck.
Like a test subject,
That's been locked away for good,
Locked away for good,
Locked away for good.

She
04:22
|

She's caught in a web,
Everything's trapped inside her head,
She's losing hope.
The world is no good,
Though she hates the thought of leaving,
She's wasting time.
Tied up by her own thoughts,
Loosened by her own actions.
Waiting for the words,
Why don't you say so?
There's a box where all the secrets hide,
The bitterness can be sweet tonight.
You can light one thousand lives just be,
Be your dream.
Judges everywhere it's always what's on the outside,
She's the odd one out.
The eyes that follow and always in the worst kind of way,
She keeps her head down.
Tied up by her own thoughts.
Loosened by her own actions.
Waiting for the words,
Why don't you say so?
There's a box where all the secrets hide,
The bitterness can be sweet tonight.
You can light one thousand lives just be,
Be your dream.
Seeming so well a smile can mask a pack of lies,
She's always smiling.
Just like a ghost people act like she's not there,
She's always there.
Tied up by her own thoughts.
Loosened by her own actions.
Waiting for the words,
Why don't you say so?
There's a box where all the secrets hide,
The bitterness can be sweet tonight.
You can light one thousand lives just be,
Be your dream.
The enemy lives on.
No escaping from the hurt.
She's believing,
She's hoping,
She's smiling,
She'll show them.
There's a box where all the secrets hide.
The bitterness can be sweet tonight.
You can light one thousand lives just be,
Be your dream.

Dark Horse
03:04

It's been years but I'm still holding out hope,
As well as holding out my hand for you to take.
The warmth and comfort from another one is what I crave the most.
How can I love when I'm afraid?
Too afraid to be left alone again.
How can I love when I don't trust?
Too many people have shown me why I shouldn't trust.
I don't look like much but give a chance 'cos,
I may surprise you they call me a dark horse.
The warmth and comfort from another one is what I crave the most.
How can I love when I'm afraid?
Too afraid to be left alone again.
How can I love when I don't trust?
Too many people have shown me why I shouldn't trust. (x2)

Stray

Well how do I start?
I'm the most stubborn person that I know.
I choose a direction but go the other way.
Lord, help me I'm the most stubborn person I know.
The famous last words will be,
I told you so.
Heat is swimming all around and the world just seems to be slowing down.
I'm stranded and I don't know where I'm going.
But all I can do,
All I seem to do is think of you.
I really should make a start,
I seem to be waiting for a dream that's not arriving.
I have this life but I'm too scared to live it.
Emergency, I'm afraid I'll end up a stray.
The famous last words will be,
I told you so.
Heat is swimming all around and the world just seems to be slowing down.
I'm stranded and I don't know where I'm going.
But all I can do,
All I seem to do is think of you.
The words I told you so,
Swim around like sharks in a tank.
The words what are you waiting for,
Flock like birds and I told you so.
I told you so.
Heat is swimming all around and the world just seems to be slowing down.
I'm stranded and I don't know where I'm going.
But all I can do,
All I seem to do is think of you.

Fence Girl
02:47

You see there's one way then another way,
and then there's the middle,
which seems like the easier place to be.
The fence through the middle is where I've taken root.
You see,
There's black or white.
Thick or thin.
High or low.
There's one two, three and four.
Too many roads to take.
Don't wanna make no mistakes.
Knocking on all the doors,
How do I make it when I'm just another fence girl.
You see, I can't make my mind up.
A yes or a no,
Which seems like the hardest place to be.
The fence I'm sitting on is also the safer place to me.
You see,
There's black or white.
Thick or thin.
High or low.
There's one two, three and four.
Too many roads to take.
Don't wanna make no mistakes.
Knocking on all the doors,
How do I make it when I'm just another fence girl.
I'm losing my heart,
Losing my hope.
How do I keep them close?
If you see them can you let me know?
There's one two, three and four.
Too many roads to take.
Don't wanna make no mistakes.
Knocking on all the doors,
How do I make it when I'm just another, oh I'm just another fence girl.
Oh, fence girl. (x3)

Buttercup
03:58
|

|
I'm shouting my loudest,
But no one can hear me.
Why can no one hear me?
I have a wild fire love for you,
Blazing through and through.
Why fall in love,
When you can fall apart?
What's up buttercup?
Glow like you did yesterday.
What's up my snowflake?
Sparkle like you do everyday.
And when they start to hear me,
It's your trait to come running back.
As sad as that may seem.
I had a wild fire love for you,
It's simmering down and down again.
I don't fall in love.
I fall apart.
What's up buttercup?
Glow like you did yesterday.
What's up my snowflake?
Sparkle like you do everyday.
How many times did I try?
A simple no would suffice.
I hope one day you know that you're the bad guy and I was your best kept secret.
What's up buttercup?
Glow like you did yesterday.
What's up my snowflake?
Sparkle like you do everyday.
