Resolutions 02:58
In with the old, out with the new, It’s a brand-new tradition that has nothing to do with the start of a New Year, so untie your shoes. You’re still the same person with nothing to prove. I am resolved. I am resolute that I could be happy here. So unpack that gym bag. Sit down grab a beer, We’re not getting six-packs that much it is clear. We’ll ignore fads and fictions or the chance to improve, You’re still the same person, with nothing to lose. I am resolved, I am resolute that I could be happy here. You. You are the resolution I’d like to keep.

You can hide your head in your hands if you’d like. Until it all goes away. But if you stand and look back at everything that you have done (you never know) You might live another day. I am scared that I am looking at this in the wrong way, there is still colour here. It’s easier to focus on the silver instead of all the grey. There is still colour here. I’m just a man with no great plans, but I’ll do the best I can. It doesn’t matter what they say. So now I stand before you all with all my fuck ups on display, can you help make them go away? I am scared that I am looking at this in the wrong way, there is still colour here. It’s easier to focus on the silver instead of all the grey. There is still colour here. (It takes some time to get it right, you’ll find a brand-new lease on life) I’m still right here. I'm alive.

Are you sure this is the right way back? Because we've been walking for miles and now the sky's turned red Are you sure we can't just lie on the couch? We'll use our clothes for sheets, we'll use pillows for beds You say you want to pack up, but now you're saying you're alright You want to get on the last bus, and I've been asking this all night Are you sure we haven't heard this before? Because now my eyes are blurred and your cheeks are red Downstairs this party's starting to bore Let's pick our shoes up, we'll hit this one on the head, she said You say you want to pack up, but now you're saying you're alright You want to get on the last bus, and I've been asking this all night We're leaving now, it won't be right. We won't get back till Morning Light.

Birds 04:15
The mind is such a precious thing. Sometimes your birds forget how to sing. The lights were on there’s no one home, the crown now sits on an empty throne. If I knew that you had had enough, I’d be right there to call your bluff. If I could take away everything, I’d take away everything. You taught me how to sing. If I could take away everything then I would. Your life is such a precious thing - you’re surprised by just how much you bring Beneath a smile you wear a frown, there’s no one here to keep you out With the weight of the world you’ve had enough, I’ll be right there to call your bluff. If I could take away everything, I’d take away everything. You taught me how to sing. If I could take away everything then I would.
