I was born here, schooled here, got my degree
I was raised there, played there, got hit by disease
But they never feel quite like home to me

Second Thoughts
Standing by the car in the street
I don't know the next time we'll meet
Talked about my plans, we
Talked of where I would be
I don't know the next time we'll meet
Talked about my plans, we
Talked of where I would be

Star Shine
I wonder do you remember
A time when we used to sing
A time when we would laugh and smile
Much more than we do today
A time when we used to sing
A time when we would laugh and smile
Much more than we do today
Been Before (Comfort Zone)
The sun is shining down on me
As I walk on down the street
To a place I’ve been before
My shoes have seen much better days
But they keep me on my feet
In a place I’ve been before
As I walk on down the street
To a place I’ve been before
My shoes have seen much better days
But they keep me on my feet
In a place I’ve been before
Letter
It all started with the letter on her doorstep.
There was no stamp, and no return address
A dirty thumb had sealed it with a dirty smudge
The loop in the L, the angle of the T,
The handwriting was eerily familiar.
There was no stamp, and no return address
A dirty thumb had sealed it with a dirty smudge
The loop in the L, the angle of the T,
The handwriting was eerily familiar.
Spiral
Under a spiral of dying trees
A poet falls on crying knees
But no one hears his lying pleas
As they trickle away in the vying breeze
A poet falls on crying knees
But no one hears his lying pleas
As they trickle away in the vying breeze
Wrecking Ball
Here lie the monuments to past disasters
Landmarks unoriginal, she's seen'em all
See her try only once to mask the plaster
Nothing's gonna cover, gonna cover it all
Landmarks unoriginal, she's seen'em all
See her try only once to mask the plaster
Nothing's gonna cover, gonna cover it all
The Real You
Underneath the façade
Is just another mask
Waiting to fall
Waiting to fall
Dug beneath the surface
And found another earth
Under it all
Under it all
Is just another mask
Waiting to fall
Waiting to fall
Dug beneath the surface
And found another earth
Under it all
Under it all
You Knead Me
I don't want to feel like this anymore
I turn around face down I got my feet on the floor
I just wanna be myself and no more
I've been around this town more times than I can be sure
I turn around face down I got my feet on the floor
I just wanna be myself and no more
I've been around this town more times than I can be sure
Pro-Crass-Tea-Nay-Shun
I'll do it tomorrow, I said yesterday
I'll do it tomorrow, I said again today
Today's the tomorrow of yesterday
Today's tomorrow's yesterday
I'll do it tomorrow, I said again today
Today's the tomorrow of yesterday
Today's tomorrow's yesterday
Train To Nowhere
He’s on a train to nowhere
Looking out at packaged lives
Flashing by him in an instant
A motion-blur suburbia
Looking out at packaged lives
Flashing by him in an instant
A motion-blur suburbia
Nothing Left Of Me
Step into my reflection
And all that I can see
This world behind the curtain
There’s nothing left of me
And all that I can see
This world behind the curtain
There’s nothing left of me
Holding On
Standing in the centre of the marketplace
The smell of seafood and flowers all around
Can't say I notice, or that I really care
As I lean down and whisper in your hair
"Let's just stay here for a while"
My eyes are closed, so I can't see your smile
The smell of seafood and flowers all around
Can't say I notice, or that I really care
As I lean down and whisper in your hair
"Let's just stay here for a while"
My eyes are closed, so I can't see your smile
Beauty
She is beauty
And truth
Wrapped up in a smile
Night after night
In the moonlight
I see her face shining
Under water
And truth
Wrapped up in a smile
Night after night
In the moonlight
I see her face shining
Under water
Let Your Rain Fall
by Glenn Davies
5 April 2002
Let your rain fall
Let your rain fall
Come and wash away the tears
The tears of all those years
I spent without you

Let your rain fall

The tears of all those years

Angel In The Wings
He's got a million-dollar smile
And folks pay thirty bucks for his hairstyle
They've got all his autographed albums
And they pay to hear him sing
No-one ever sees or hears
The angel in the wings
And folks pay thirty bucks for his hairstyle
They've got all his autographed albums
And they pay to hear him sing
No-one ever sees or hears
The angel in the wings

She's There
It's the way she stirs her coffee
It's the way she turns her hair
It's the way she smiles at me
It's the way she's always there
When I need her
When I see her
She's there
It's the way she turns her hair
It's the way she smiles at me
It's the way she's always there
When I need her
When I see her
She's there
Rescue Me
Hello, it's me again
Seeing you made my day, walking out in the rain
I know we'll meet again
Maybe sooner than later if I have my way
But I don't know what you're thinking
How you feel about me now
My heart is slowly twisting
Rescue me, I'm upside down
Seeing you made my day, walking out in the rain
I know we'll meet again
Maybe sooner than later if I have my way
But I don't know what you're thinking
How you feel about me now
My heart is slowly twisting
Rescue me, I'm upside down
