Beneath The Ice

There you are stepping on the cracks
And here am I trapped beneath the ice
We pretend that it's not over
And that no-one ever told us
We don't even notice how we are
The things we say and all the scars
That we carry
How did we
get here can we go back?
The years weren't kind
I've seen how you look at me these days
Beneath the ice
And late at night I gaze across the miles
To the pillow where you're sleeping
Only there 'cos there's no spare bed
I turn to face the wall
As the breeze blows through the window
I'm living here beneath the ice
I'm barely breathing
The colder that my body gets
I lose all feeling
How did we get here can we go back?
The years weren't kind
I've seen how you look at me these days
Beneath the ice
And there you are you don't hear a thing
And there am I hands over my ears
Time has gently bruised our hearts
As we slowly drift apart
How did we get here can we go back?
The years weren't kind
I've seen how you look at me
these days
Beneath the ice

It's Been A Long Time

I still remember you from school
We weren't close
But the things we used to do
Beneath the goalposts
And time has passed us by
So we look back
With a twinkle in our eye
It wasn't all bad
To all the girls
I’ll never forget
Linda, Susie, Nicola,
Karen, Anna, Samantha
Claire, Michelle and Andrea
It's been such a long time,
yes it’s been such a long time
I thought I'd ask you once
To the disco
But you wouldn't come with me,
I didn't think so
So I'd stand there all alone
During the slow songs
Everyone with someone else
And me with no-one
And every thought was just of you
You didn't see me
And my heart's an open book
You didn't read me
And the tragedy of youth
Is that it's fleeting
And the girls I wish I'd kissed
Would never meet me
To all the girls I’ll never forget
Linda, Susie, Nicola,
Karen, Anna, Samantha
Claire, Michelle and Andrea
It's been such long time, yes it’s been such a long
time
And you'll always be to me
As you were then
And the years that in between
Haven't aged them
And your names there on the page
All became one
Memories they start to fade
And then they're all gone
To all the girls I’ll never forget
Linda, Susie, Nicola,
Karen, Anna, Samantha
Claire, Michelle and Andrea
It's been such long time, yes it’s been such
a long
time

You don't get a cake and candles
Living in a town like this
Walking past the jailhouse
All the doorways stink of piss
And the bloom has left the rose
And all the roads are paved with dreams
That have been run over
And the poet's in the gutter
And are hopes are down the drain
Without a rhyme or reason
Washed away by acid rain
And the bloom has left the rose
And all the roads are paved with dreams
That have been run over
Told by an idiot to a fool
Cupid's blind oh what's the use
Tell me twice you know the rules
What did Rachel say, what did Selena do?
And the sunset on the gasworks
Reminds me of our love
And the chalk lines on the pavement
Mark when I have had enough
And the bloom has left the rose
And all the roads are paved with dreams
That have been run over

I'm waiting for someone
Who I don't remember
Under the bridges
The shadows of my father
The gods don't hear me anymore
The gods don't hear me anymore
So here we are
Ruled by old men with long memories
After George's death
I carefully chose my enemies
The gods don't hear me anymore
The gods don't hear me anymore
Tears come easy when you're young
And you don't know where you've come from
And they always tell you what you've done wrong
In the morning
I held my breath and nothing's changed
I closed my eyes I'm still to blame
I can't help feeling it' still the same
As the last time
Is life always like this I find it hard to tell
Is this what we're in for it never ends up well
I lost my taste, changed beyond recognition
I'm spinning plates
I love the world we live in
The gods don't hear me anymore
The gods don't hear me anymore
Ran out of space and not for the first time
Felt out of place, seems my mother was right
The gods don't hear me anymore
The gods don't hear me anymore
Tears come easy when you're young
And you don't know where you've come from
And they always tell you what you've done wrong
In the morning
I held my breath and nothing's changed
I closed my eyes I'm still to blame
I can't help feeling it' still the same
As the last time
Is life always like this I find it hard to tell
Is this what we're in for it never ends up well

And all the flowers
Well they have died
And since you ask
I never cried
There’s so much more
Besides I’ll never tell
The things you’ve seen they count for so much
All you believe you know you can’t trust
The truth you feel is one that you can’t touch
I’m jaded I’ve seen it all before
I’m jaded don’t tell me anymore
I’m jaded already know the score
I’m just too old for this, I’m just too old for this
Just you and me
It’s nothing much
But then again
It’s all we’ve got
Walking out together
Fist in glove
As important as this seems to be
Years from now it’s just history
Remembered by a few
With eyes top see
I’m jaded I’ve seen it all before
I’m jaded don’t tell me anymore
I’m jaded already know the score
I’m just too old for this
I’m just too old for this, I’m just too old for this
Close your eyes and make a wish
I don’t know what the difference is
Between your words and your promises
That trickle gently from your lips
I’m jaded, I’m just jaded, I’m jaded, I’m just jaded

When We Were Young

I remember walking home
Past your house I’m all alone
Looking up at your window
And hoping that you see me
You never knew that I was there
Too much to ask for you to care
So I stood there as the rain fell
And it drowned me
I think it’s probably for the best
That you and I we never met
And the thoughts I had inside my head
Just stayed there, just stayed there
And I doubt there’s too much poetry
In unrequited love and knowing me
In torn up notes and memories
Of when we were young
I wrote our love up on the wall
The council came removed it all
And all I’ve got left
Is the summons that they sent me
I told the judge just how I felt
He said he’d been young once himself
He’d like to help
But my hormones had betrayed me
I think it’s probably for the best
That you and I we never met
And the thoughts I had inside my head
Just stayed there, just stayed there
And I doubt there’s too much poetry
In unrequited love and knowing me
In torn up notes and memories
Of when we were young
I’ll always love you, you’ll never known me
That’s so much better, much less disappointing
I still remember, lipstick and mascara
Your old house number, how’s your father
