Listen 03:50
LISTEN Sometimes I think/ I’m talking to a wall/ I’m talking to a room/ I’m talking to an empty house on an empty street all alone/ there’s no one here/ cause everyone around/ can’t seem to be/ why can’t they listen/ listen to me/ we’re going round in circles again/ we’going round in circles again/ I’ve got my ticket and I’m boarding the plane/ oh woah/ I’ll take my chances/ I’m leaving/ You never listen and it’s always the same/ oh woah/ I guess that we were just dreaming/ I see the lights/ they’re fading out/ no need to scream/ no need to shout if it don’t hit home/ cause everyone here/ and everyone around/ can’t seem to listen/ don’t hear a sound/ why can’t they listen/ listen to me/ we’re going round in circles again/ we’re going round in circles again/ I’ve got my ticket and I’m boarding the plane/ oh woah/ I’ll take my chances/ I’m leaving/ You never listen and it’s always the same/ oh woah/ I guess that we were just dreaming/ I’m not wasting any more time on you/ I’m not wasting any more time/ on you/ you/ you/ I’m wasting anymore time on this relationship/ no more sweat and tears/ I’m through with all the years of pain/ there’s nothing left to say/ there’s nothing left to do/ been through this all before/ turn the key and lock the door/ ooh ooh/ turn the key and lock the door/ I’ve got my ticket and I’m boarding the plane/ oh woah/ I’ll take my chances/ I’m leaving/ You never listen and it’s always the same/ oh woah/ I guess that we were just dreaming/ It’s all been said/ it’s all been done/ I’m getting out now/ this is over and done.

Promise 03:31
PROMISE When my time comes and it’s all done/ will you be there till the morning comes/ will you remember who I used to be and not the person that I have become/ will you be brave enough to hold my hand/ will you continue with what we both had/ will you be brave like I know you can/ and continue to carry on../ You gotta promise to be strong/ you gotta promise to carry on/ you gotta make it / just take it/ there’s no need to fake it/ this is where you belong/ Don’t cry for me because I will be fine/ you’re the only worry on my mind/ I know it’s harder for the one who gets left behind/ But you’ll find your way darling/ oh God I pray/ You gotta promise to be strong/ you gotta promise to carry on/ you gotta make it / just take it/ there’s no need to fake it/ this is where you belong/ Hold on to my voice/ (believe what you believe in)/ you always have the choice/ (don’t let the world deceive you)/ hold on to my voice/ (the truth that you believe in)/ you always have the choice/ You gotta promise to be strong/ you gotta promise to carry on/ you gotta make it / just take it/ there’s no need to fake it/ this is where you belong/ You gotta promise to be strong/ you gotta promise to carry on/ you gotta make it / just take it/ there’s no need to fake it/ this is where you belong/ you gotta promise and just hold on...

Tripping 03:27
TRIPPING He meant everything to me/ when they told me that/ I’d tend to disagree/ not a vow could be broken by a man so lovely/ look what you’ve done to me/ caught here in between/ Tripping/ pick me up off the floor/ what were you thinking/ I can’t this anymore/ lying on the floor where you left me once before/ get out of my head all the little things you did/ tripping/ I’m tripping on you/ If she meant more than everything/ well if you drifted for that/ perhaps I’d understand/ relationships broken down over one night love affairs/ what a fool to have been caught between the sheets/ Tripping/ pick me up off the floor/ what were you thinking/ I can’t this anymore/ lying on the floor where you left me once before/ get out of my head all the little things you did/ tripping/ I’m tripping on you/ don’t think you’re coming back around here/ saying the words I don’t want to hear/ sorry- who the hell is sorry/mouthing the words won’t cut it this time/ you went and put your ass on the line/ over baby it’s over/ over/ tripping/ I’m not tripping on you/ what was I thinking/ there’s not much left you can do/ lying on the floor/ leaves you begging me for more/ get out of my way/ leave you begging me to stay/ tripping/ I’m not tripping on you/ tripping/ tripping/ lying on the floor/ leaves you begging me for more/ get out of my way/ leave you begging me to stay/ tripping/ who’s tripping on who?
