"Hope & Glory"
When I arrive eyes wide fired up
Tried not to slide and let the side down
Now the plane's on the ground
I'll find a good profession
It's 1957
I've come to the motherland to make a home to put my bed in
This weather does my head in
Some people are less than kind I wish
Mama was here so I could unwind
But I'm supposed to be the good news
So I lace up these hard black shoes
And look - more work
These streets were never paved with gold
They simply make my feet hurt
They just make my feet hurt
Just a little money in my pocket and a little bit left for those I love
To have enough food on my table and a little bit more for those who call
And in this land of hope and glory
You'd think there's enough for us all
You'd think there's enough for us all
When I arrive eyes wide petrified
Tried not to cry and let the side down
Now the plane's on the ground
It's 20 years later
Mama's in the arrival lounge
I take a few seconds to kiss her
Then look around at what's happened to my home town
What's going on
But papa doesn't look too strong
Rush home in a cab, windows up
Now I hear dad cough:
"We gotta get in before they switch the lights and water off
for the night"
I have to get to know the guard dogs
Cause they bite
Progress just passed us by, to the right
Just a little money in my pocket and a little bit left for those I love
to have enough food on my table and a little bit more for those who call
and in this land of hope and glory
you'd think there's enough for us all
you'd think there's enough for us all
Just a little money in my pocket and a little bit left for those I love
to have enough food on my table and a little bit more for those who call
and in this land of hope and glory
you'd think there's enough for us all
you'd think there's enough for us all
[John Reid:]
The public needs to know that there may be other people out there who may be planning to attack against the United Kingdom.
That is why there're a number of other security operations underway.
There is still a very serious threat of an attack.
The threat level is at severe, indicating the high likelyhood of an attempted terrorist attack at some stage.
STAIND LYRICS - The Way I Am
"The Way I Am"
I'm not very good at just paying attention
I'm not very good at remembering things that you say
I'm not very good at persuing redemption
I'm not very good at concealing the hand that I play
[chorus]
It's the way I am, you'll never change
The way I am, or re arrange
The way I am, just let me be
The way I am, it's the way I am
I'm not really sure of the coming attractions
I'm not really sure of the illusions we read on the wall
I'm not really sure of the preaching we practice
I'm not really sure if we notice it before we fall
[chorus]
It's the way I am, you'll never change
The way I am, or re arrange
The way I am, just let me be
The way I am, it's the way I am
I'm not very good at just paying attention
I'm not very good at remembering things
I'm not very good at pursuing redemption
I'm not very good at concealing the hand that I play
When I'm trying so hard just to beat you
I'm not really good at controlling my fate
I'm not really good at controlling my anger
I'm not really good at subduing my hate
I'm not really good [x3]
[chorus]
It's the way I am, you'll never change
The way I am, or re arrange
The way I am, just let me be
The way I am, it's the way I am
I'm not very good at just paying attention
I'm not very good at remembering things that you say
I'm not very good at persuing redemption
I'm not very good at concealing the hand that I play
[chorus]
It's the way I am, you'll never change
The way I am, or re arrange
The way I am, just let me be
The way I am, it's the way I am
I'm not really sure of the coming attractions
I'm not really sure of the illusions we read on the wall

I'm not very good at pursuing redemption
I'm not very good at concealing the hand that I play
When I'm trying so hard just to beat you
I'm not really good at controlling my fate
I'm not really good at controlling my anger
I'm not really good at subduing my hate
I'm not really good [x3]
[chorus]
It's the way I am, you'll never change

HARD-FI LYRICS - Help Me Please
"Help Me Please"
There's no light in the hall,
There's no sound here at all,
Emptiness, emptiness rules,
I don't wanna come home?
You ain't sat in your chair,
No one calls no one there,
Just the clock, tick-tock, tears,
So many tears.
Help me please, I'm in need,
Cos being alone scares the life out of me.
Help me please, I'm in need,
Cos being alone scares the life out of me.
Breaking down on the stairs,
Hello loneliness, hello despair,
All of this, all of it's wrong,
You won't ever come home.
They can take what they please,
They can take what they please,
Everything, everything is free,
Have it on me.
Help me please, I'm in need,
Cos being alone scares the life out of me.
Help me please, I'm in need,
Cos being alone scares the life out of me.
Being alone scares the life out of me.
There's no light in the hall,
There's no sound here at all,
Emptiness, emptiness rules,
I don't wanna come home?
You ain't sat in your chair,
No one calls no one there,
Just the clock, tick-tock, tears,
So many tears.
Help me please, I'm in need,
Cos being alone scares the life out of me.
Help me please, I'm in need,
Cos being alone scares the life out of me.
Breaking down on the stairs,
Hello loneliness, hello despair,
All of this, all of it's wrong,
You won't ever come home.
They can take what they please,
They can take what they please,
Everything, everything is free,
Have it on me.
Help me please, I'm in need,
Cos being alone scares the life out of me.
Help me please, I'm in need,
Cos being alone scares the life out of me.
Being alone scares the life out of me.
TEENAGE FANCLUB LYRICS - Don't Need A Drum
"Don't Need A Drum"
I don't need a drum, to make a song
When I want to speak, I open my mouth
If no one listens, I don't care
I still disturb the air when I want to
If I could say, don't need a thing
What do postcards say anyway
What do? ? anyway
I still disturb the air when I want to
I don't need a drum, to make a song
When I want to speak, I open my mouth
If no one listens, I don't care
I still disturb the air when I want to
I don't need a drum, to make a song
When I want to speak, I open my mouth
If no one listens, I don't care
I still disturb the air when I want to
If I could say, don't need a thing
What do postcards say anyway
What do? ? anyway
I still disturb the air when I want to
I don't need a drum, to make a song
When I want to speak, I open my mouth
If no one listens, I don't care
I still disturb the air when I want to
DIDO LYRICS - See You When You're 40
"See You When You're 40"
I've driven round in circles for three hours
It was bound to happen that I'd end up at your
I temporarily forgot there's better days to come
I thought that I would give it just one more chance
Cos' I want, tonight, what I've been waiting for
But I found, tonight, what I'd been warned about
You think that you are complicated, deep mystery to all
Well it's taken me a while to see, you're not so special
All energy no meaning, with a lot of words
So paper thin that one real feeling, could knock you down
And I've seen, tonight, what I'd been warned about
I'm gonna leave, tonight, before I change my mind
So see you when your 40, lost and all alone
being comforted by strangers you'll never need to know
not sad because you lost me
but sad because you thought it was cool to be sad
You think misery will make you stand apart from the crowd
well if you had walked past me today I wouldn't have picked you out
I wouldn't have picked you out
Now I've seen, tonight, how could I waste my time?
and I'll be on my way, and I won't be back
cos I've seen, tonight, what I've been warned about
your just a boy, not a man, and I'm not coming back
I've driven round in circles for three hours
It was bound to happen that I'd end up at your
I temporarily forgot there's better days to come
I thought that I would give it just one more chance
Cos' I want, tonight, what I've been waiting for
But I found, tonight, what I'd been warned about
You think that you are complicated, deep mystery to all
Well it's taken me a while to see, you're not so special
All energy no meaning, with a lot of words
So paper thin that one real feeling, could knock you down
And I've seen, tonight, what I'd been warned about
I'm gonna leave, tonight, before I change my mind
So see you when your 40, lost and all alone
being comforted by strangers you'll never need to know
not sad because you lost me
but sad because you thought it was cool to be sad
You think misery will make you stand apart from the crowd
well if you had walked past me today I wouldn't have picked you out
I wouldn't have picked you out
Now I've seen, tonight, how could I waste my time?
and I'll be on my way, and I won't be back
cos I've seen, tonight, what I've been warned about
your just a boy, not a man, and I'm not coming back
THE BUTTERFLY EFFECT LYRICS - Overwhelmed
"Overwhelmed"
You've got me crawling out of a hole in the ground now
Pick me up, dust me off and then you push me around again
I watch you hit/kick, with the hatred you strike
Shamed to smile, broken teeth then you turn out the lights on me
I know why you want to hurt me so bad
You didn't mean to hurt me so bad
But you did
Now that you've got your hand tightly gripped around my throat
Broken back shortest straw and I'm beginning to choke
I'm sorry for the blood, these stains won't come out,
Can you see what you've done, what you did, what you've done to me?
Why are you hurting me?
Only you know
When you hit me again I know you
What you do? You did it to me,
When you hit me again I know you
You've got me crawling out of a hole in the ground now
Pick me up, dust me off and then you push me around again
I watch you hit/kick, with the hatred you strike
Shamed to smile, broken teeth then you turn out the lights on me
I know why you want to hurt me so bad
You didn't mean to hurt me so bad
But you did
Now that you've got your hand tightly gripped around my throat
Broken back shortest straw and I'm beginning to choke
I'm sorry for the blood, these stains won't come out,
Can you see what you've done, what you did, what you've done to me?
Why are you hurting me?
Only you know
When you hit me again I know you
What you do? You did it to me,
When you hit me again I know you
