Ride Album

Take me for a ride away from the places I have known
If I stay around I'll just remember I'm alone
There's someone in my memory making me move on
What was grey and hazy, is black and white now I have gone

Drive me up to London now it's got too dark to see
My waiting is over, there's no visitor for me
Never let me talk to you, destroy the frozen past
It's a different time now things are moving much too fast

Float by today, now it's turning to grey
Raining my doubts let my thoughts slip away
You must have something and what it is I don't know
You must have something 'cause I can't let you go

Can't see the lights or the blue orange signs
Can't see the road or the long white lines
Feeling the ground through the pedals on the floor
Feeling death pounding at the door

Windows all open, chaos in my hair
Driving me round and leaving me there
Cover my eyes and we'll die driving blind
Cover my trail and we'll leave this life behind

Drive blind

All at once, too much light
Captured and frozen, hear no sound
Bright flashes penetrate
Glowing, flowing, lifting off the ground

Can't see the lights or the blue orange signs
Can't see the road or the long white lines
Cover my eyes and we'll die driving blind
Cover my trail and we'll leave this life behind

Drive blind

Lying still, staring out of the window
And all I can see is doubt
Watching as tonight moves in
Watching as the light fades out

Smokey rooms minds out of tune
Lights down on the time spent with you
Time moves into place
My memories fade
Is all I can see so true?

You treated me like a fool

Last night I had such a good time
But there's a price to pay
A night full of kicks, now the sun's in my eyes
And I feel so weary today

I want to close my eyes
I want to close my eyes
I want to ride and ride and ride
'Til I'm nowhere

Make your body a blanket
Let me rest my head
The world can wait for just a few minutes more
They might as well be dead

I want to close my eyes
I want to close my eyes
I want to ride and ride and ride
'Til I'm nowhere
'Til I'm nowhere
'Til I'm nowhere
'Til I'm nowhere
'Til I'm nowhere
'Til I'm nowhere
'Til I'm nowhere
'Til I'm nowhere
'Til I'm nowhere

I want to close my eyes
I want to close my eyes
I want to close my eyes

The way your hair hangs down it hides away your face
For you it's perfect when it seems like such a waste
And when I see you gliding past I make my plans
And then my plans slip through my fingers just like sand

I wish that life could be just like a photograph
One moment captured as you laugh your perfect laugh
But that's a daydream, things could never be so right
There's so much more to think about than black and white

Who said 'time heals all wounds'
I think it was me before I met you
Your silver chains have slit my wrists
When I fell in love, I never asked for this

All this time, and I still can't see
How your poisoned mind still poisons me
The silver chains around your neck
Cut my throat, when you turned your back

I've tried so hard to keep control
But the thought of you keeps tearing at my soul
I've tried so hard to keep control
But the thought of you keeps tearing at my soul

Unsure of emotions
And unsure of my stand
That time was so perfect
Who could ever understand?

So don't try to criticise
You don't know the change that's in my eyes
Plastic feelings and emotions
Your lifestyle is your only tie

It's time for a change
I'm not asking I'm telling you
I'm watching, I'm listening
But to touch seems the furthest sense away

Tomorrow's another day
Regret belongs to yesterday
But I'm screaming, I'm shouting
I'm sick of everything that's said

The stars are out tonight
And in my eyes there is a guiding light
That's keeping me awake
And making my dreams my only sight

It's time for a change
I'm not asking I'm telling you
I'm watching, I'm listening
But to touch seems the furthest sense away

Another stupid day
I'm confused and I can't explain
Why I'm having to run away
And find a new place to stay

And now I'm not so sure
If I've felt so low before
Why do I still want more?
'Cos you're killing me to the core

I thought I was in line
And happiness was mine
I was sure that I had found
Found my perfect time
