Satisfaction guarantee, if you join the company
Pension plan, quiet life, it’s alright.
Working hard is easy when you love your job right?
Anyway, I’ve got no choice, dept is just a part of life
Once a year I get away, drink toquilla everyday
Don’t really care about the place, a beach, a bar, I cant complain
I levelled up my life, mum and dad they did alright
But if they had a brain and looks like me, I’d be man of the century
This ain't the way stars aligned
Doctor prescribes to fix my mind
I cant believe a tragedy
It’s not as it seems, I live a dream.
The girl ain’t satisfied, never signed up for this life
Glances at the tele screen to wish away her wildest dreams
Honey please, won’t you leave?
The house is paid for, leave the keys
Nothing mends a broken heart, but a baby means we’d never part
Anyway that’s not the case, she loves me, we’ll be okay
She’s often out, I never doubt, she knows I’m the best around
Five bed house, facing south, privet school, swimming pool
Modern man, model wife, quiet village, simple life
This ain't the way stars aligned
The doctor prescribes to fix my mind
I cant believe a tragedy
It’s not as it seems, I live a dream.
This is the way your stars aligned
Living a lie, you lost your mind
You hate your life, you hate your wife
This ain't your dream its a tragedy
This is the way your stars aligned
Living a lie, you lost your mind
You hate your life, you hate your wife
This ain’t a dream you’re just a walking tragedy

Include My Madness

I’ve lost my sense of place and time
I’ve lost my things, I’ve lost my mind
War was won before I knew
And still I kept on chasing you
I was left breathing in all the smoke that you left behind…
(Shame)
The trenches lined my boots with lead,
I’m shellshocked inside your bed
(Shame)
Salute, my flag
Include, my madness
You’re searching to find another
And you know there is no other
Take me on
I’m the one
I wish my home was near my heart
But I have travelled way too far
My compass has no signal,
And I swipe because I’m single
The road is dark, my dreams are hard,
I’m selfish to think I can be loved
(Shame)
I overheat within your hands,
Snub the flame that floods our land
(Shame)
Salute, my flag
Include, my madness
You’re searching to find another
And you know there is no other
Take me on
You know there is no other
Take me on
You know there is no other
Take me on
I’m the one
Take me on
I’m the one
Salute, my flag
Include, my madness
You’re searching to find another
And you know there is no other
Take me on
I’m the one
Take me on
I’m the one
You know there is no other
You see me as another
I’ll be the one undercover
And I’ll be the last one laughing

Blood, Sweat & Broke

Blood
Sweat
Broke
Again
Tap and swipe your time,
Medicate for life,
Makes you feel alright,
Simplify my brain,
Pixel serenades,
Keep us out the way
They don’t see what we see,
They don’t eat the food we eat,
They don’t sleep near our streets,
Don’t care for my wellbeing
They’re not looking out for me
Looking out for you
They’re just watching what you do
It’s all Blood
Sweat
And I’m broke
Blood
Sweat
And I’m broke
(Broken)
I work hard to live
Life drained through a sieve
All that’s left is this
Work/life balancing
Rent takes everything
Blood and sweat, broke
Blood
Sweat
Blood
Sweat
And I’m broke
(Broken)
Blood
Sweat
Broken
(That’s me, that’s you)
Blood
Sweat
Broke
Blood
Sweat
Broke
Blood
Sweat
Broke
Oh I’m blood, sweat and broken

Storm

Picket fence, picket line
Out of cash, out of time
I smell something in the air
Breathe it in without a care
Internet, Cigarette
Brief description about yourself
Profile is looking fine
Cast the spell and swipe right
Shelter me from this storm
It's the newest sensation,
Notification,
Feel the vibration,
Feels like a storm
I never did find what I wanted in life,
But I found it on my phone and now it's in my bed
You're one of my kind and you're proving me right
Even though I try and hide it, it rears its ugly head
Shelter me from this storm
It's the newest sensation,
Notification,
Feel the vibration,
Feels like a storm
Feels like a
Feels like a storm
Feels like a storm
Feels like a storm
Feels like a storm
Feels like a storm
Feels like a storm
Feels like a storm
Feels like a storm
Feels like a storm
Shelter me from this storm

Fight

Common ground gets dusted in the boy's room
An atmosphere that you could cut through
The key unlocking all my demons
Ego pumps through my veins
My reflection in a knife cuts deeper than the blade
Flashing neon lights intoxicate the brain
Never coming back, never gonna be the same
Its a beast of a city
Its a beast of a city
She's living a life inside the disco ball
Reflecting my approach like a mile high wall
My pockets aren't deep but the ladder, It's tall
Its a beast of a city
Its a beast of a city
I'm never coming back, never coming back
I'm never coming back, never coming back
Common ground gets dusted in the boy's room
An atmosphere that you could cut through
The key unlocking all my demons
Ego pumps through my veins
I felt this burden for so long
I felt this burden for so long
I felt this burden for so long
I'm over
I'll never be the same
I'll never be the same
I'll never be the same
I'll never be the same
Common ground gets dusted in the boy's room
An atmosphere that you could cut through
The key unlocking all my demons
Ego pumps through my veins
Indecision floating like a weightless feather
Your mood swings round like the English weather
Ego brittle like the 0-zone layer
Its a beast of a city
Its a beast of a city
A wounded soldier is a dangerous man
Coupled with a country on its knees and hands
I'm ready for a fight but it's a hundred to none
Its a beast of a city
Its a beast of a city
My reflection in a knife cuts deeper than the blade
Flashing neon lights intoxicate the brain
Never coming back, never gonna be the same
Its a beast of a city
Its a beast of a city
I'm living her life inside the disco ball
Reflecting my approach like a mile high wall
My pockets aren't deep but the ladder, It's tall
Its a beast of a city
Its a beast of a city
