A Certain Trigger
Album - 16 maggio 2005 - Debaser id 224790

Well I've been waiting
Here for hours
It's getting cold
Position closed
New direction
New dawn
Consider this
My informal complaint

I hope you felt cheated at home
With all your lies lies lies
How long has it taken for you
To look so fine fine fine

Don't waste your life
Just go outside

Well I've been waiting to forget
How the pieces just fell away
You left your hometown where you grew up

I hadn't noticed how your accent had changed
Did these lonely hands rob your time time time
When was the signal divorced from sign sign sign

Illumination
Accusation

I'd like to meet her
But she won't see me

You know that I would love to see you next year
I hope that I am still alive next year
You magnify the way I think about myself
Before you came I rarely thought about myself

Behind your veil I found the body underneath
Inside your head were things I'd never thought about

What's my view? Well, how am I supposed to know?
Write a review? Well, how objective can I be?

You know that I would love to see you in that dress
I hope that I will live to see you undress
The everyday is part of what consumes me
The hate i feel is part of what fuels me

I testify to having guilty feelings
I must confess, I'd like to be caught steeling

What's my view? Well, how am I supposed to know?
Write a review? Well, how objective can I be?

I'd like to wait to see how things turn out
If you apply some pressure

What happens when you lose everything?
You just start again
You start all over again

I like to wait to see how things turn out
If you apply some pressure

You know that I would love to see you...
I hope that I am still alive...

That's enough
I can't take anymore
Right out of vision
Right out of hope
You work me up
Just to tear me down
What's on your conscience?
Nothing happens in my town

I'll do graffiti if you sing to me in French
What are you doing here if romance isn't dead?
Mind your mouth as you walk with me
Take care oooh oh as you cross the street

That's enough
I've had it up to here
I've lost my vision
I've lost my hope
You work me up
Just to hand me down
You've lost your conscience
'Cause nothing happens in my town

I'll do graffiti if you sing to me in French
What are you doing here if romance isn't dead?
Stay in line on the foreign trip

Waking up
I need a lift

I'm losing more than I'll ever have,
I'm losing more than I'll ever give,
I'm losing more than I'll ever have,
I'm losing more than I'll ever give to you

Picture me with you but you couldn't do it,
Everything I said was true but I couldn't prove it

Your eyes are big when they're so close,
Why can't we say goodbye in public,
Your eyes are big when they're so close,
Why can't we say goodbye in public

Picture me with you but you couldn't do it,
Everything I said was true but I couldn't prove it,
And I'll admit there was a web but it wasn't me who spun it,
Now I've made my bed but you wouldn't lie down in it

I wrote my feelings down in a rush,
I didn't even check the spelling,
And closed the postcard of a painting
You are just another thing that I have yet to fathom,
Oooh you are just another thing I've yet to fathom

And I'm losing more than I'll ever have,
I'm losing more than I'll ever give to you

Picture me with you but you couldn't do it,
Everything I said was true but I couldn't prove it,
And I'll admit there was a web but it wasn't me who spun it,
Now I've made my bed, but you wouldn't lie down in it.

I sleep with my hands across my chest
And I dream of you with someone else
I feed my body with things that I don't need
Until I sink to the bottom
Don't act like it came as a surprise
Don't believe me? Then look into these eyes

This can't go on so I should just
Regret it, regret it
And even though I led you on
Forget it, forget it

I'm going missing for a while
I've got nothing left to lose
I don't listen to anything

I still remember how you moved
And I taste you scent upon my lips
How it started, I will never know
But now I've reached my limit

This can't go on so I should just
Regret it, regret it
And even though I led you on
Forget it, forget it

I'm going missing for a while
I've got nothing left to lose
I don't listen to anything

I'm going missing for a while
I've got nothing left to lose
I don't listen to anything

Do you ever want to wear your body out
Until there's nothing left to take?
The rain began to push you away
Has midnight come to soon again?

I'm going missing for a while
I've got nothing left to lose
I don't listen to anything

I've got nothing in defence
I've got nothing left to lose
I don't listen to anything

I sleep with my hands across my chest
And I dream of you with someone else

Thinking clearly never came as easy as it did for you
Driving this route out of town I wish you were still around

In the dead of night I always wondered whether you were true
Someone better than myself an offer you just can’t turn down
A morning flight, A wasted night
You crept back to your room…

Run around the back of your new man Limassol
Hold on, I couldn't trap you
We're gonna head for…new horizons Limassol

When it's all good, keep things close at hand

I could never bear to hear you struggling against the tide
Promises I couldn't keep
I couldn't admit I was in too deep

Saw the lights on in your window even though you said you'd gone
The darker nights have come again
Quicker than the year before

A morning fight
A wasted night
You slinked back to your room…

Run around the back of your new man Limassol
Hold on, I could never trap you
We’re gonna head for…new horizons Limassol

When it's all good
Keep things close at hand
And when it's all good you've got to
Keep things close at hand

I've met so many people who look the same
Most were forgotten but you still remain
Most of the time, I don't care
But London's so far away when you are there.
And so it saddens me to say
I'm only happy when I move away

I am young and I am lost
Every sentence has its cost
I am young and I am lost
You react to my riposte'

And we look out upon the sea

We look out upon the sea
The coast is always changing
I'll bring my camera out to sea
The coast is always changing'

Age makes no difference 'til you open your mouth
Use your time just to work things out
I know that you can't understand
When I tell you that this wasn't planned
And so it saddens me to say
I'm only happy when I move away

I am young and I am lost
Every sentence has its cost
I am young and I am lost
You react to my riposte'

And we look out upon the sea

We look out upon the sea
The coast is always changing
We'll take the train out to the sea
My heart is always changing

It won't be long before you've gone
I can't imagine leaving
It won't be long before you've gone
I can't imagine leaving

It won't be long before you've gone
I can't imagine leaving
It won't be long before you've gone
I can't imagine leaving

And we look out upon the sea

We look out upon the sea
The coast is always changing
I'll bring my camera out to sea
My heart is always changing
We'll take the train out to the sea
My pulse is always racing
As we look out upon the sea
The coast is always changing

And though it saddens me to stay
I'm still waiting for that day

Put away hard to find,
I don't remember why I started speaking,
A fast track operation,
Slow exertion over-ridden,
Unseen tough to catch,
I cant remember why I started drinking,
One track mind each and everytime,
Speed exertion country living,
Engage the men in trust,
I cant remember why I started hurting,
Another street light going down,
The night reveals itself to you,
Slipping under sliding down,
All I need is a certain trigger,
The path you take will never make you happy,
All I need is a certain spur

Once a glimpse was all I needed,
I don't remember why I had to give you back,
I just remember I kept all of your souvenirs,
Discarded traces of a love I never had,

Enforced and then enabled,
I don't remember why I started breathing,
Tied up turn him loose,
Slow desertion kept me hidden,
That's that no escaping,
I cant remember why I started thinking,
Wrapped up cuttin back,
Their inertia left you driven

Once a glimpse was all I needed,
I don't remember why I had to give you back,
I just remember I kept all of your souvenirs,
Discarded traces of a love I never had
X2

I wish that I could say that I don't need you anymore,
I heard every word you said and that is all
X2

Once a glimpse was all I needed,
I dont remember why I had to give you back,
I just remember I kept all of your souvenirs,
Discarded traces of a love I never had

I don't think your gonna get that early night,
I don't think your gonna get that early night,
I don't think your gonna get that early night,
I don't think your gonna get it

Just a glimpse was all I needed,
I don't remember why I had to give you back,
I just remember I kept all of your souvenirs,

If you're gonna talk about the things I need,
Then you're gonna have to find out what they are,
You remind me of a time when I was boring,
I recall a time when you could slip your noose

I wash my hands of you,
my feet wont hit the ground,
I often ask of myself,
When am I gonna learn,
I know you'll be content,
In the right line of employment

I never held you, you never hold me,
Its happening all over again,
I try and tempt you, you say I'm deluded,
When will this foolishness cease

Everytime I see you I start choking,
I prefer to keep my eyes wide open,
Ballerina poses get you nowhere,
Patience is a virtue when you're near me

I wash my hands of you,
my feet wont hit the ground,
I often ask of myself,
When am I gonna learn,
I know you'll be content,
In the right line of employment

I never held you, you never hold me,
Its happening all over again,
I try and tempt you, you say I'm deluded,
When will this foolishness cease

I know that you'll be content,
In the right line of employment,
I know you'll be fine, you'll be fine (in the right line)
You'll be fine, you'll be fine (in the right line)
I know you'll be fine,
Now that you're not mine

I never held you, you never hold me,
Its happening all over again,
I try to tempt you, You say im deluded,
When will this foolishness cease,
I attempted to snare you with old fashioned manners,
But patience was never my thing,
I said you were special, you know that I meant it,
Now im all over the shop

If you carry on like that you'll never make it,
If you cary on like me you'll never make it.

You've got to catch an early plane
And it's no surprise I'm standing still
Another minute more is all I need
And I'll never have enough

This room gets so cold in the winter
What will it take to heat this house?
I just want to feel comfortable
When there's only the two of us on my bed
My foot nearly brushes your leg
I can't draw it away; I can't push it forward
It lies stranded. It belongs to someone else.
We knew each other once
This can't be what you want..
But you didn't have to demolish me.

I don't remember losing sight of your needs
I don't remember losing sight of your needs

I am not an acrobat…
I cannot perform these tricks for you
Losing all my balance…
Falling from a wire meant for you

The sky is often used as a metaphor
And I suppose that's because it's so big and expansive
When a long strand of cloud sits just above the horizon
Leaving a strip of clear blue beneath it
It becomes the panorama
It'll turn your head three hundred and sixty degrees,
And the same line follows you round if the land is sufficiently flat
Really, nothing can be compared to it

I don't remember losing sight of your needs
I don't remember losing sight of your needs
Your needs…

I am not an acrobat…
I cannot perform these tricks for you
Losing all my balance…
Falling from a wire meant for you

I am not an acrobat…
I can't perform these tricks for you
Losing all my balance…
Falling from a wire meant for you

I know the night has reached that stage again
Where I never want to see my home
I know that you'll provide the brains
But who'll provide the brawn?
And if it comes down to me and him
You know I’d kiss you better…
I kept the message that you sent me

Bear with me…
If you're scared
My beliefs…
Make me bound

I think it's time we compiled a list
Of places where we shouldn't go
Now is not the time to lose your voice
Everyone should have a choice
And if you should ever fall
You know I'd kiss you better
I keep the letters that you send me…

Close your eyes…
If you're scared
My beliefs…
Will make you drown

You, are you so scared that you're just gonna let it happen?
You, are you so scared that you're just gonna let it happen?
You, are you so scared that you're just gonna let it happen?
You, are you so scared that you're just gonna let it happen?
