Disciple 04:30
You pulled me in with the promise of love and affection I couldn't see it was part of your deception You snook me in close behind your back To be a shield in a shameful act I dropped it all To be your loving Disciple I thought that I Would be worth nothing Without you o-o-o Without you Set me free from the pain When I remember your name Release me from the chains that you hold I'm fed up with the lies and your sick lullabies I'm tired of waiting on your reply, your reply All I wanted was your love To keep me warm on Wintry nights You pulled me in and said that I was all you needed But now you're gone I've learned to move on I bear the marks of a beat and broken heart I'll remember you as the love who tore me apart I dropped it all To be your loving Disciple I thought that I Would be worth nothing Without you o-o-o Without you Set me free from the pain When I remember your name Release me from the chains that you hold I'm fed up with the lies and your sick lullabies I'm tired of waiting on your reply, your reply All I wanted was your love To keep me warm on Wintry nights Set me free from the pain When I remember your name Release me from the chains that you hold I'm fed up with the lies and your sick lullabies I'm tired of waiting on your reply

When we're young we're told the same old story That we fit neatly in little boxes Just pink for Claire and only blue for Harry All other choice is only fantasy What if I want to play with dolls or Try on my sister's heels Don't even try they're not meant for you Instead be a knight and save a princess too What if I don't like sports and wanna paint my nails It's football for you and for your brothers too Don't try and escape this is your only fate I wanna wear bright colours neon pink and others I want the me inside to come to life I wanna show the world I can be who I need to Be happy for the rest of my life What if I wanna go outside with makeup and rainbow shoes You'll be shouted at and people will laugh It's not down to you it's whatever we choose What if I wanna sing my songs and wear a skirt along the way You're just a sheep now don't go astray There's no other place you're here to stay I wanna wear bright colours neon pink and others I want the me inside to come to life I wanna show the world I can be who I need to Be happy for the rest of my life I wanna wear bright colours neon pink and others I want the me inside to come to life I wanna show the world I can be who I need to Be happy for the rest of my life I wanna wear bright colours neon pink and others I want the me inside to come to life I wanna show the world I can be who I need to Be happy for the rest of my life

When I saw your photograph I thought that maybe it would last And maybe we could have a dirty old romance When the time to said goodbye an evil look shone in your eye And I knew that I'd unleashed the beast Please don't call And if you see me Don't say hello When I picked you up in the passenger seat I looked at you and my heart skipped a beat I knew it was wrong and we didn't belong But I followed my guts and we carried on Yes we had fun but it went on too long I brought it to an end said that we could be friends Then two years on you sing your song I wish you'd go so I could move on Oh love Oh love Please don't call And if you see me Don't say hello The other day when I crossed the street Out the corner of my eye I saw the fleet It was you and your friends sinking pints to no end Oh what I'd pay to disappear round a bend I thought you knew it was all discreet But I guess in your head you just missed the beat Oh how I wish I'd have given you the block I'll run half a mile if you ever come and knock Oh love Oh love

Mr. Bitches 02:54
It's Mr. Bitches So watch right here stay clear keep tabs on your gear Mr. Bitches is here for no tears nor fears This is best Spillane'd while you drain your brain On a vessel of champagne no games Irresistibly drunk off his satisfying touch You start to keel feel this is real No longer a third wheel Now a king feasting on his favourite meal Feeling omnipotent Strange because it feels different It builds and builds to be infinite What a perfect mess My mind has become impossibly cleft in twain I simply can't believe that I am right back here again The lust it never dies and it will send you back to that I really can't believe I'm here again and Mr. Bitches is back Ain't no qualm with his charm and the smile never fails Grab it while you can before the sinking ship set sails Steal your soul you're not on your own And prepare for the stench of smoke and Newcastle Brown ale It never fails My mind has become impossibly cleft in twain I simply can't believe that I am right back here again The lust it never dies and it will send you back to that I really can't believe that Mr. Bitches is back Spit your message out cause someone might listen Wasting kind words on someone you should be dissing The songs and signs are easily ignored But there's no escape from the fate we had before The urge to be a lamb astray itches The disastrous revelation of other witches He'll keep you in stitches Drop your britches for Mr. Bitches My mind has become impossibly cleft in twain I simply can't believe that I am right back here again The lust it never dies and I will never send you back I really can't believe that I am here and we are back to that My mind has become impossibly cleft in twain I simply can't believe that I am right back here again The lust it never dies and it will always send you back I really can't believe that Mr. Bitches ain't coming back

Perception 04:02
Looking at me you'd assume that I'd be Strict and uptight no fun in my life But oh boy how wrong you'd be Cause this old girl's not all that she seems If you could see me How I want to be seen If you could hear me Behind your wall Your perception is only a lie Told by your own eyes Behind this yellow shirt and tie Lies a hunger that will never die A lust for love sex and vice I don't know about you but this is life If you could see me How I want to be seen If you could hear me Behind your wall Your perception is only a lie Told by your own eyes With my collar on I can do no wrong Out in the streets or up in the sheets I'm not your average girl next door I'd rather be dead than be judged anymore If you could see me How I want to be seen If you could hear me Behind your wall Your perception is only a lie Told by your own eyes Your perception is only a lie Told by your own eyes Your perception is only a lie Told by your own eyes

Cold Machine 04:29
Who'd have thought with synthetic eyes I'd see Flesh and blood who was willing to love me I am lost zooming into your zooming into your eyes Who'd have known with a brain of wires I'd be Fighting with the microchips in me I am lost listening to your listening to your problems I cannot perceive your pain My sensors detect no shame All I wanna do is show you my love But my transistor frame can't express enough Trying to please you wanting to be near you Loving you is just so hard Married to a human I just feel confusion Every time you go and cry Those human tears are worthless Comments are superfluous I am just a cold machine Those human tears are worthless Comments are superfluous I am just a cold machine Who'd have known that with metal arms I'd be Holding her and calling her family But the time the time is running out And life is leaving her slowly Who'd have known after sixty years of love and pain She'll leave the world and die Leaving me alone leaving me alone baby I never perceived your pain But all of your love I gained Thought I'm left forever to roam My circuits light up recalling home Trying to please you wanting to be near you Loving you is just so hard Married to a human I just feel confusion Every time you go and cry Those human tears are worthless Comments are superfluous I am just a cold machine Those human tears are worthless Comments are superfluous I am just a cold machine Trying to please you wanting to be near you Loving you is just so hard Married to a human I just feel confusion Every time you go and cry Those human tears are worthless Comments are superfluous I am just a cold machine Those human tears are worthless Comments are superfluous I am just a cold machine

On the coast I roam searching for lost memories All the rock pools alone sing your distant melodies Oh when you're lost at sea My tears flow through tomorrow On the cliffs I climb and falling rocks rain down on me And as the lighthouse turns it projects your symphony Oh when you're lost at sea My soul yearns for new meaning Late at night I hear crashing waves Taking me back to our seaside summer days When the sun would beam down on our hair And we'd breathe in the golden sea air Then the tide washed away our affair Leaving me on the beach in despair There's a line in the sand when you're there There's a line in the sand when you're there My life will never be the same Since the fateful day when you chose oceans over me Oh now you're lost at sea My worst fear has come to be Then one day before dawn I heard a voice I recognised I rushed out at low tide to see my seaside bride Oh but it wasn't all it seemed Just false hope of you coming back to me Late at night I hear crashing waves Taking me back to our seaside summer days When the sun would beam down on our hair And we'd breathe in the golden sea air Then the tide washed away our affair Leaving me on the beach in despair There's a line in the sand when you're there There's a line in the sand when you're there Late at night I hear crashing waves Taking me back to our seaside summer days When the sun would beam down on our hair And we'd breathe in the golden sea air Then the tide washed away our affair Leaving me on the beach in despair There's a line in the sand when you're there There's a line in the sand when you're there Our love is only etched in the sand Our love is only etched in the sand Our love is only etched in the sand Our love is only etched in the sand
