Waiting Game 03:58
Waiting Game It doesn't get any easier Nothing seems to change I just get better at hiding my feelings Better at riding the wave of pain Oh oh oh oh oh-o-oh Oh oh oh oh Oh oh oh oh oh-o-oh Oh oh oh oh Chorus This is the waiting game, waiting game Playing the waiting game, waiting game Losing the waiting game, waiting for you Oh oh oh oh If I'm honest I can just about function I'm hiding a heart that's bruised black and blue You're there I'm here it's impossible Live half empty cup half full Chorus Bridge I know you ask for me, think of me, talk of me, dream of me, yearn for me, call for me, cry for me Forget me, forget me, forget me, forget me, forget me Let's ride out this storm together Swim with the fishes let them tear us apart I'll drag you up to the crest of my wave Be brave take a breath hold me hold my heart, my heart Chorus

Transference 03:15
Transference Everything you say I do to you you do to me  Everything you think I see is news to me  You feel me looking but my eyes have no desire to rest a single moment on the lies that fan your fire  Trans ference  Trans ference to me If only you could see what everybody sees If only you could stop the voices buzzing bees If ifs and ands were pots and pans I'd play the drums and try to beat some sense into your crooked mind that mental slum Chorus What you do to me could be done to him or her or he or she  What you do to me could be done to him or her or he or she  Leave the children, leave the children, leave them be One day when the dust has almost settled on the ground One day when tender wounds have ceased their weeping, hear the sound of your conscience in the distance such a tiny voice, I know Go on and dare yourself to listen and your confidence may grow  Chorus
3.
Slow Down 05:10
Slow down Slow down slow down What's here today will still be here tomorrow Slow down let your feet feel the ground Contemplate celebrate each fresh new moment The people on the surface of our world are spinning out of control Our world just keeps on turning and she keeps it nice and slow I’m jumping over shadows I’m staying in control (Last time) Come! Jump over shadows with me (riff to end) Slow down slow down Turn it off look up and breathe Slow down let your feet feel the ground Play your part in this life give of yourself and you will receive When your thoughts and feelings are spinning out of control Our world just keeps on turning and she keeps it nice and slow Chorus Slow down take a child's pace of life Take it easy and smile Slow down have the luxury to fall For it’s only in these moments that we learn how to grow tall Chorus Playout: Jump! Jump! Jump over shadows with me…

Watching Us 03:36
Watching us I lift my arm baby you climb inside Inside my warm bed baby you and me hide Hide from the outside safe from prying eyes Chorus He ain't watching us no more Lay my fingers on the scars of all that's gone before no no no No Calm after the storm baby we'll find our way Our way is paved baby with golden dreams Dreams we'll make real, maybe troubles in between He ain't watching us no more Lay my fingers on the scars of all that's gone before no no no No It's amazing what you do what you do what you do what you do when you're being controlled It's amazing what you do what you do what you do what you do when your heart unfolds It's amazing what they do what they do what they do what they do what they do to you We lift our heads baby into the light The light is warm baby-going to be alright You and me baby dance into the night I’m telling you He ain't watching us no more Lay my fingers on the scars of all that's gone before no no no No No

The Impossible Dream That girl has a broken heart That girl has a broken heart Used to read her like an open book Now she cannot even take a look at the possibility, of The impossible dream That girl had a fire in her heart That girl had a fire in her heart Used to give it till they tore it apart, tore it apart Now she's fighting to kill the bitter taste of lies, fights The impossible dream Suddenly woah oh oh no love hits her in a flash Like a dart through the heart Suddenly woah oh oh no She can't breathe, she might crash Suddenly she feels it, she feels it She open her heart unfolds, to The impossible dream That girl has a healing heart That girl has a healing heart You can read her like an open book Now she's trying hard to take a look at the possibility, of The impossible dream That girl has a fire in her heart That girl has a fire in her heart Scared to give it ‘cause they tore it apart, tore it apart Now she's fighting just to rebuild this life, in The impossible dream Suddenly woah oh oh no love hits her in a flash Like a dart through the heart Suddenly woah oh oh no She can't breathe, she might crash Suddenly she feels it, she feels it She open her heart unfolds, to The impossible dream She can try to keep on keep on running But that love will keep on keep on keep on coming - biting at her heels She can try to keep on keep on running But that love will keep on keep on keep on coming - messing how she feels Suddenly woah oh oh no love hits her in a flash Like a dart through the heart Suddenly woah oh oh no She can't breathe, she might crash Suddenly she feels it, she feels it She open her heart unfolds, to The impossible dream
