i put the kettle on , then sit in my old chair
look out the window ,see if any life's out there
the clock keeps it's pace , while i feel like i'm frozen in time
the room feels quiet in this home of mine
alone in a space you once filled
just an empty house , quiet and still
don't have anyone now
not even my old dog
sat watching the clock and waiting for god

chorus

waiting for god , until he comes along
waiting for god , ever since you've been gone
got a hole in my heart
that nothing can fill
so l'm waiting for god
until the room goes still

these bones creek
and the nights are long
i think about good times
and the ones that went wrong
the rain keeps tapping on the glass
just me, memories of you and the ghosts of the past
the younger years seemed short
and the old ones seem long
now i'm just waiting for god to come along

chorus

i'll just wait my turn and count the days
when love leaves loneliness always stays
i think about the younger me and what he would say
he wouldn't recognise this old man today
time goes faster the older you get
i'm just waiting for god
i haven't met him yet

chorus

verse 1

when i was young , the days lasted forever
i knew everything , couldn't tell me anything ever
living trouble free, not a care in the world
having fun and chasing girls
you never believe you will ever get old
don't listen to advice and what you're told
it's only later , you remember their words
old and young are two separate worlds

chorus

we were young , we lived for today
getting into trouble in stupid ways
they say , you'll regret it when your older
but you can't put an old head on young shoulders

no , no , can't put it on young shoulders oooo

verse 2

as the years pass and the body grows weak
you want different things than what you once seek
life changes in lots of ways
a different time from those glory days
you chased love but now its money
worrying times , just seem funny
you don't think about the lives you lost
just the expensive shopping cost

chorus


bridge

when i think back now to the advice i was given
i realise it was from experience of living
i find myself saying the same thing to this generation
they don't listen and take no inspiration
i just smile to myself and think , that was me
ooo to live again young and free

final chorus

cant out it on young shoulders ooo no no no
those young shoulders

verse 1
there are times i remember
others i want to forget
some are amazing
others filled with regret
some are dead
some still living
some keep taking
others still giving

chorus
heaven is only a heartbeat away
gunna keep singing
as the clock ticks away
i keep these memories
in my head
living in me , until i'm dead

verse 2

memories of what we were
the good and bad always there
i carry these like a weight
my glory and mistakes
the things i shouldn't have done
the times i nearly won
chorus

bridge

i have made these memories in my life
my daughter and my beautiful wife
my freinds , my mum and dad
the happy ones and the ones that still make me sad
with life there is always death
sometimes memories are all you get left

chorus

final
heaven is only a heartbeat away ooooo
i'm gunna keep singing until my last day

verse 1
you have done it again, same old you
promised change but didn't come through
we have been down this road a hundred times
tears and promises , just more lies
i keep taking you back , am i the stupid one
a new you appears for a short time and then their gone
its about time i got off this treadmill
this constant struggle is making me ill

chorus

i don't know why i never learn
my trust you definitely haven't earned
we get back together then apart again
at this point it's myself i blame

verse 2

you'r back again , same old game
i keep believing you , am i insane
i keep telling myself , this time were done
then a new you comes along
i think its me that needs to find a different way
you keep letting me down in different ways

chorus

bridge

i'm determined this time it's going to be done
these last years have been anything but fun
i think it's me that's just too trusting
the way you treated me is just disgusting
you'r never at fault , you put the blame on me
my friends all know , am i too blind to see
you have broken me down into something i'm not
this relationship is pure emotional rot

chorus

i don't know why i never learn

verse 1

there is something happening in this country today
you keep silencing the people in new ways
pass new laws to fix the problem
just getting worse nothing done
the parents weep for there son
when he was in his hour of need
he was demonised by the police
they were blinded to his pain
let down again and again

chorus
we are one country's people
silenced and not equals
listen to people and learn
if this continues , the country will burn

burn burn

verse 2
this claimed utopia is on its knees
are you deaf or ignorant to peoples pleas
quiet people have had enough
you'r refusal to listen , orders from above
the more you force its your mistake
you are breeding unrest and hate
people are good and want the best
you have pushed this
and created this mess

chorus

burn burn

bridge
you lie and shut people down
people feel rage in once peaceful towns
the more you contain and bottle up
the pressure builds and will erupt
some things you condem are you'r agenda
on others deafening silence , people remember
the lies the cover ups and the narrative you spin
people are awake , change before it begins

chorus

burn burn

one country's people treat us as equals

i just keep on falling,dont seem to have another way to go
no good things in my life, a permanent low
i take a step forward and life throws me back
perhaps its me thats broken, my mind is always under attack
fell like having nothing to lose , my life is set to terminal velocity auto cruise

chorus

i need a true north a shining light
to guide me through lifes darkest of nights
be my star and point the way
i need this light , its my darkest day

chorus

just keep falling more and more
waiting to hit the final floor
will i ever stop and where will i land
just keep falling im feeling truly dammed
its a cry for help, is this world deaf and mute
my darkness seems absolute

falling falling
chorus

someone catch me and stop this decline
darkest thoughts cloud my mind
show me a sign however small
only you can stop this never ending fall
falling falling

chorus

i just cant shake the dark inside
no body can see through these eyes
jaded by life always pushed back, life always pushing me further
inward with its constant attack
how much can one person take ,whoever wrote this life made a horrible mistake

chorus

falling falling

verse 1

another day without you
another missing part
one man alone is only half
alone in my thoughts
just the ticking of lifes clock

chorus

another lonly night , another sad day
its only for you i pray
just a shell in a empty sea
without you there is no me

2
minutes turn into hours
hours into weeks
just alone in my memorys
of you and me
when we were together
we danced as one
your love was my song

chorus


3

life has knocked me down
no desire to rise without you around
cant think , canr feal
i need you for my soul to heal

chorus

only for you i pray

one moment , one time , one euphoria high
feel the beat deep inside
feel my body tingling
come on dj what you bringing
waiting for the base to drop
want to dance and never stop

come on dj lay that bass on me
i need to feel finally free
i need to dance , i need to fly
i need that euphoric pure ecstasy high
come on dj give it to me
need to drop that base to feel free

waited all week for this night
that first drop , that first high
want to move my body in time
want to feel my soul rise
need that music to cleanse my mind
all my troubles left behind

repeat chorus

people on the floor feeling the high
needing more
as the music starts to rise
heart pumping faster
hands to the skys
waiting for that moment a euphoria release
come on dy drop that base

chorus

some people never feel this way
the pure freedom acstasy
drop that base

the rise of the pulse , the pure collective joy
just people connected to something more
this is a place where love is free
no anger , just love and pure ecstasy

come on dj drop that base on meeeeee
