This is a new side
A point that cannot be agreed upon
This is a blue night
A conversation with a charge
In evening wear they dine
It started out like any other
With smiles and candlelight
And now at odds with each other
How? They come home the flames are out
He makes a point, she raises her brow
Its not what was said but how
She turns her back, his eyes are down
See the first cloud rolling in
There will be more to follow
Soon enough to open up the sky
Its the first cloud of a storm
Many more will come along
It wont be long til the sun has gone
The winds are changing
Her looks his fortune can afford
His lines are ageing
For all his wealth she's growing bored
And in private they see red
They forget how it started
A snide remark cutting the silence
An attack waiting to be invited
Its out in the open now

Upside Down

Tuesday night in June
The introverts were out despite the rain
Hired for the entertainment
We were playing to ourselves
They sit with joysticks in their hands
Loud enough to beat the band
We pack up and load out
Another one to give me doubts
Word goes round the band
Of a house that's celebrating through the damp
A stones throw away, these people dance
And you're looking good but feeling bad
Well the night is young and far from over
You could chuck the car in second gear
To a room full of perfect strangers
Upside down, I saw you
On your hands you swept me off my feet
It felt like there was no one else
In a crowd, just you and me
With skin so pale and eyes so deep
They're brightly lit with dopamine
They night would carry on
But when it ends, where will we be
Cos I could see me happy with you
And when the music dies its time to call the cabs
Like Lester Burnham in a trance
This lonely sailor's just hit land
Hold out your hand for me to grab
We know this night is almost over
The rush of blood has made it clear
And if you call me up, you know I'll answer

My Lovely Armadillo

My lovely armadillo
My lovely armadillo
She's so lovely, she always cuddles me
She's so lovely, she makes good company
My lovely armadillo
My lovely armadillo
She's so lovely, she makes good company
She's so lovely, she's the one that keeps me going
When you see her roll around
Scratching dirt from off the ground
Looking up to see her face
She seems so happy
My lovely armadillo
My lovely armadillo
She makes me laugh when she rolls into a wall
She makes me giggle when she eats my pumpkin pie
Don't mistake it, she'll always be around
Nothing that you say will make her shy
She would do most anything and everything for you
But that's something I won't let her do

Wild At Heart

My sights are curling in the wind
Like tails in the sky
You catch a breath to take it in
I try to catch your eye
Wild at heart
You were wild at heart
At first I keep my distance til
I can run along your side
With that a moment passes
Then a fleeting goodbye
Shake me to my core
My heart of hearts begins to swell
I wanted you to stay with me
Curious that I can't pin you down to one place
And furious, I want to clip your wings
Stay with me
Its hard to picture everything
From such a height
The earth is just a breath away
From where the fallen lie
You were wild at heart
You were wild at heart
