By the By

I’ve taken nothing, but it’s by the by
I’ll fake another “Sunday state of mind”
In the meantime
Even if I’m not my own “kind”
I don’t mind
I’ll find out, when we’re all out of luck
We never really get enough
I’ll find out, when we’re all out of luck
That I don’t want to give it up
Don’t need the funding, make up your mind
I’ll make it up or something, if on the line
You don’t need my peace of mind
Don’t take it for a sign
I don’t mean to be unkind
But I don’t care if you’re not fine

Profit / Loss
02:48
|
|||
We are looking at a list of people out of time
We are thinking how to make a mental compromise
We will not fake
We will not lie
You were never out of line
We know your price
You have your pride
You are only out of time
Paid out, sugar coated
Made out, never voted
Way down, overcoated
Safe now, no motive

Conversation History
03:19
|
|||
Take a breath
Think about whether we should think aloud
Follow up, make amends
I don’t know, it depends
All our conversation history
Are you faking it for me?
Take a moment, make me wait
Make a note, compensate
Right now I’m figuring out your type
By now I figure that you’re alright
Right now you never cross the line
Right now you’re a beautiful waste of time

Wait Around
03:58
|
|||
I’m a number, I’m a face
I’m a link to you you’re struggling to place
That’s a funny point of view
But then again, to me that’s nothing new
You don’t need to know me
You don’t need to wait
You don’t need to know my name
Hey, I can’t work out your deal
(Wait around, I need some time...)
Wait around for your reveal
Help, I don’t know how to feel
(Wait around, oh, never mind...)
Are you fake or are you real?
You want your common ground
Regrettably I don’t have much around
Think you want to work me out?
Regrettably I don’t think you’re allowed
Time enough to blink
Time enough to speak again
Not enough to think
Not enough to rearrange

Misery Chick
04:06
|
|||
Wide awake and still in bed
Faking all the interest
Pass it off as real intent
Liking people even less
You’re so young
You’re so right, always right
Feel like I know you
Daria we never met
But I miss you nonetheless
Don’t want to show you
Together we’d be such a mess
But I wish you all the best
Welcome in, be my guest
I like you more when you’re depressed
Never easily misled
You are not the subtlest
May not be plain to see
You’re not a mystery
I sort of want to pass your test
It’s rather cute to me
It’s your anxiety
Not cardiac arrest

Fine Lines
04:24
|
|||
Same times, in between
Fine lines and tight scene
Contradicting, you know how I heal?
You’re predicting that’s what I feel?
I make out that it’s easy on my own
I take it out, but then I take it all back home
I make out I listen when you’re speaking
I found out it’s you that I’ve been treating
Calm it down, she’s scared of what she’s feeling
Count it down, I’m scared of what I’m eating
So tight and so thin, fill out to fit in
Feels so defeating, but I’m not on pills
I dream of eating, but I’m not ill
You break it down and you hide it on the go
We figured out that you don’t know we know you know
I won’t sink, I’ll swim
I don’t think I’m not thin

No Makeup
03:37
|
|||
I’ve taken out the detail
Not making out to retell
It’s not what you think
A smile and a wink isn’t part of the deal
I’m starting to think
That you’ll never blink until I kneel
You made it easy, you made it all a game
I won’t forget you, but I might forget your name
It figured out with no break up
I’m nearly out of your makeup
Remember, I said you’re not easily read
Whatever the mail
But in your defence, you don’t know what I meant
You’re learning to fail
I could not get away, your calendar in mine
You were a holiday I remember all the time

Candlelight & Mirrors
03:33
|
|||
Don’t need a name, don’t need a reason, no tie
Don’t want a game, it’s not the season, no lie
I’ll make your miles into metres
May take a while without a mirror, and I...
Want you to know I’m on the line
You need to read between the lines
Want you to wake me up when you are on my mind
Don’t need to lie to make you fine
You need to read between the lines
Why won’t you wake me up before we’re out of time
You want to save, it’s quite appealing, too right
You’ll find a way, to be revealing, in time
I’ll take a smile over here in candlelight, a new idea in mind
I want to wake you up before we’re out of time

Another Round
03:44
|
|||
We wait a moment and settle down
We may come over if you’re around
You’re taking over and you say they’re not allowed
Learning how to kick them when they’re down
You’re never open when we are out
We’re kind of sober or thereabout
You’re making over all the faces in a frown
Finding any way to run them down
Don’t think I lost it, don’t think that I found
I never notice, when you’re not around
Don’t need a motive when I’m not allowed
Go through the motions, get another round
We’re out of funding in another town
She wasn’t under, you let her down
You’re taking over but beware of what I have found
What’s goes around me come around
Don’t need her, don’t need her now - I’m in no doubt
I’ll see her, I’ll see her around, I’m in not out
Another season, another crowd
Forever feeling forever cowed
I know you’re thinking it, I know you don’t feel proud
I know you’re thinking what you’re scared to say aloud

Inside Out
04:34
|
|||
I’m not invited (I’m not that excited)
Any way you write it, I want to stay home
May have forgotten, you think you’re post modern
Don’t lose your bottle, I think you’ve got it wrong
In the light, how you like, you will find a way
Up all night, on my mind, you will lie awake
I know I’m not your kind
Inside out and out of my mind and
Wish you were easy not to follow
I know what’s on my mind
Inside out and out of my life
I think I’ll leave it ‘til tomorrow
I got the letter (I thought you knew better)
I never even read it, I’d rather not know
Image is vital (looking suicidal)
Any way you like it, I feel at home
You know why I won’t lie, I won’t find a way
You’ll know why, in good time, life I while away
Put your disguise away
I’m naked, turn your eyes away
You’ll make it either way
I’d make it then, but not today
You may be right again
Don’t fake it and deny the pain
You seem to find a way
I bet you’ll make it, either way
