Them
Whoa u whoa u oh, take a moment to look,
Outside yourself, now,
Whoa u oh u oh, take a moment to feel,
What it’s like, to be ‘Them’
I’m so sorry, sorry I left you at the polling station,
With your selfie-stick, clicking endlessly,
Sorry, but faces are just places,
For you to put your hate, well no more - not on me
Whoa u whoa u oh, take a moment to look,
Outside yourself, now,
Whoa u oh u oh, take a moment to feel,
What it’s like, to be ‘Them’
To love their child,
To feel their pain,
To crash beyond,
Your paranoid plane
To be a part,
of their pleasure and their pain
You’re only miles away
Only miles away
Only miles
Whoa u whoa u oh, take a moment to look,
Outside yourself, now,
Whoa u oh u oh, take a moment to feel,
What it’s like, to be ‘Them’
I’m not sorry…

Unlike
And I’m sailing down that road,
And I know that you will not miss me.
A criminal in the code,
Camouflaged by your lack of noticing
I’m not taking what you’re baking,
I’m not posting what you’re faking now
I’m not tweeting what you’re tweeting
I’m not liking what liking what you’re liking now,
Don’t troll now…
And I know you’re going to fake it,
And I know you’re going to make sure,
All your friends and family,
Press that ‘Like’ button for sure!
You got to make sure it’s safe to be yourself!
Safe to be yourself!
Safe to be yourself!
Safe to be yourself!
Now we’re flying off that road,
You’re off the grid and soaring like a bird
Ghosts out of the machine,
We’re camouflaged by their lack of noticing
We’re not smoking what they’re toking,
We’re not posting what they’re faking now
We’re not tweeting what they’re tweeting
We’re not liking what they’re liking now
Don’t troll now…
I’m not just a data block
I’m not just a data block
I’m not just a data block
I’m not just a data block
I’m not just a data block
I’m not just a data block
We’re not just data…
And I know you’re going to fake it,
And I know you’re going to make sure,
All your friends and family,
Press that ‘Like’ button for sure!
You got to make sure it’s safe to be yourself!
Safe to be yourself! (But it’s not)
Safe to be yourself!
Safe to be yourself! (But it’s not)

Bottled Up
Found you by the riverside
Bag of bones and an empty bottle of beer
You swore you wouldn’t get that high
But you left me alone, left me here….
We used to play in the sun
Holding hands all night long
Now you’ll never know what you meant to me,
Empty bottle at my feet
If you only knew…
What I had to do
Every time you slipped and fell back into
That place where love couldn’t grow
That space where you had to know…
You were so bottled up
Found you by your beside
Blanket gone and blood on the mirror
You swore to God that you loved this world
As you drifted away…
We used to roll all night long
Radio on singing along
Now you’ll never know what you meant to me
Broken bottle at my feet
If you only knew…
What I had to do
Every time you slipped and fell back into
That place where love couldn’t grow
That space where you had to know…
You were so bottled up
