  1. The A TeamVer letra 4:18

    letra de The A Team

    White lips, pale face
    Breathing in snowflakes
    Burnt lungs, sour taste
    Light's gone, day's end
    Struggling to pay rent
    Long nights, strange men

    And they say she's in the Class A team
    Stuck in her daydream
    Been this way since eighteen
    But lately, her face seems
    Slowly sinking, wasting
    Crumbling like pastries
    They scream
    The worst things in life come free to us

    ‘Cos we're just under the upper hand
    And go mad for a couple grams
    And she don't wanna go outside tonight
    And in a pipe she flies to the motherland
    Or sells love to another man
    It's too cold outside
    For angels to fly
    Angels to fly

    Ripped gloves, raincoat
    Tried to swim and stay afloat
    Dry house, wet clothes
    Loose change, bank notes
    Weary-eyed, dry throat
    Call girl, no phone

    And they say she's in the Class A team
    Stuck in her daydream
    Been this way since eighteen
    But lately, her face seems
    Slowly sinking, wasting
    Crumbling like pastries
    They scream
    The worst things in life come free to us

    ‘Cos we're just under the upper hand
    And go mad for a couple of grams
    But she don't want to go outside tonight
    And in a pipe she flies to the motherland
    And sells love to another man
    It's too cold outside
    For angels to fly

    An angel will die
    Covered in white, closed eyed
    And hoping for a better life
    This time will fade out tonight
    Straight down the line

    And they say she's in the Class A team
    Stuck in her daydream
    Been this way since eighteen
    But lately, her face seems
    Slowly sinking, wasting
    Crumbling like pastries
    They scream
    The worst things in life come free to us

    And we're all under the upper hand
    And go mad for a couple grams
    And we don't want to go outside tonight
    And in the pipe fly to the motherland
    Or sell love to another man
    It's too cold outside
    For angels to fly

    Angels to fly
    Fly, fly
    For angels to fly
    To fly, to fly
    For angels to die

    letra de Drunk

    I wanna be drunk when I wake up
    On the right side of the wrong bed
    And never an excuse I made up
    Tell you the truth, I hate what didn’t kill me
    It never made me stronger at all

    Love will scar your make up
    Lips sticks to me, so now I maybe lean back there
    I’m sat here, wishing I was sober
    I know I’ll never hold you like I used to

    But a house gets cold when you cut the heating
    Without you to hold, I’ll be freezing
    Can’t rely on my heart to beat in
    ‘Cos you take parts of it every evening
    Take words out of my mouth just from breathing
    Replace with phrases like: When you leaving me?

    Should I?
    Should I?
    Maybe I’ll get drunk again
    I’ll be drunk again
    I’ll be drunk again
    To feel a little love

    I wanna hold your heart in both hands
    Not watch it fizzle at the bottom of a coke can
    And I got no plans for the weekend, so should we speak then?
    Keep it between friends
    Though I know you’ll never love me like you used to

    There may be other people like us
    Will see the flicker of a Clipper when they light up
    Flames just create us, but burns don’t heal like before
    And you don’t hold me anymore

    On cold days cold plays out like the band’s name
    I know I can’t heal things with a handshake
    You know I can change, as I began saying
    You cut me wide open like landscape
    Open bottles of beer but never champagne
    To applaud you with the sound that my hands make

    Should I?
    Should I?
    Maybe I’ll get drunk again
    I’ll be drunk again
    I’ll be drunk again
    To feel a little love

    All by myself, I’m here again
    All by myself, you know I’ll never change
    All by myself
    All by myself

    I’m just drunk again
    I’ll be drunk again
    I’ll be drunk again
    To feel a little love

    letra de Grade 8

    My mind is a warrior
    My heart is a foreigner
    My eyes are the color of red like a sunset
    I'll never keep it bottled up
    And left to the hands of the coroner
    Be a true heart not a follower, we're not done yet

    And I see it in your movements tonight
    If we should ever do this right
    I'm never gonna let you down
    Oh, I'll never let you down
    Now keep it on the down low
    And I'll keep you around so I'll know
    That I'll never let you down
    I'll never let you down

    You're strumming on my heart strings
    Like you were a grade 8
    But I've never felt this way
    I'll pick your feet up off of the ground
    And never ever let you down

    Now you're strumming on my heart strings
    Like you were a grade 8
    But I've never felt this way
    I'll pick your feet up off of the ground
    And never ever let you down, now

    My eyes are a river filler
    This drink is a liver killer
    My chest is a pillow for your weary head to lay to rest again
    Your body is my ballpoint pen
    And your mind is my new best friend
    Your eyes are the mirror to take me to the edge again

    Now, I see it in your movements tonight
    If we should ever do this right
    I'm never gonna let you down
    Oh, I'll never let you down
    Now keep it on the down low
    And I'll keep you around so I'll know
    That I'll never let you down
    I'll never let you down

    You're strumming on my heart strings
    Like you were a grade 8
    But I've never felt this way
    I'll pick your feet up off of the ground
    And never ever let you down

    You're strumming on my heart strings
    Like you were a grade 8
    But I've never felt this way
    I'll pick your feet up off of the ground
    And never ever let you down

    Hold my heart to stop me bleeding now, now, now
    And I'll never let you down
    Hold my heart to stop me bleeding now, now, now
    And I'll never let you down

    Hold my heart to stop me bleeding now, now, now
    And I'll never let you down
    Hold my heart to stop me bleeding now, now, now
    And I'll never let you down

    You're strumming on my heart strings
    Like you were a grade 8
    But I've never felt this way
    I'll pick your feet up off of the ground
    And never ever let you down

    You're strumming on my heart strings
    Like you were a grade 8
    But I've never felt this way
    I'll pick your feet up off of the ground
    And never ever let you down

  5. Wake Me UpVer letra 3:49

    letra de Wake Me Up

    I should ink my skin with your name
    And take my passport out again
    And just replace it
    See, I could do without a tan
    On my left hand
    Where my fourth finger meets my knuckle
    And I should run you a hot bath
    Fill it up with bubbles
    'Cause maybe you're loveable
    Maybe you're my snowflake
    And your eyes turn from green to gray
    And in the winter, I'll hold you in a cold place
    And you should never cut your hair
    'Cause I love the way you flick it off your shoulder

    And you will never know
    Just how beautiful you are to me
    But maybe I'm just in love
    When you wake me up

    And would you ever feel guilty if you did the same to me?
    Could you make me a cup of tea
    To open my eyes in the right way?
    And I know you love Shrek
    'Cause we've watched it 12 times
    And maybe you're hoping for a fairytale too
    And if your DVD breaks today
    You should've got a VCR
    Because I've never owned a Blu-ray, true say
    And I've always been shit at computer games
    And your brother always beats me
    And if I lost, I'd go all across and chuck all the controllers at the TV
    And then you laugh at me, and be asking me
    If I'm gonna be home next week
    And then you lie with me 'til I fall asleep
    And flutter eye lash on my cheek between the sheets

    And you will never know
    Just how beautiful you are to me
    But maybe I'm just in love
    When you wake me up

    I think you hate the smell of smoke
    You always tryna get me to stop
    But you drink as much as me
    And I get drunk a lot
    So I'll take you to the beach
    And walk along the sand
    And I'll make you a heart pendant
    With a pebble held in my hand
    And I'll carve it like a necklace
    So the heart falls where your chest is
    And now a piece of me is a piece of the beach
    And it falls just where it needs to be
    And rests peacefully
    So you just need to breathe
    To feel my heart against yours now
    Against yours now

    'Cause maybe I'm just in love
    When you wake me up
    Or maybe I'm just in love
    When you wake me up
    Maybe I fell in love
    When you woke me up

    letra de Small Bump

    You’re just a small bump unborn
    In four months you’re brought to life
    You might be left with my hair
    But you’ll have your mother’s eyes
    I’ll hold your body in my hands, be as gentle as I can
    But for now you’re a scan of my unmade plans
    A small bump, in four months you're brought to life

    And I’ll whisper quietly
    And give you nothing but truth
    If you’re not inside me
    I’ll put my future in you

    You are my one and only
    And you can wrap your fingers round my thumb
    And hold me tight
    You are my one and only
    You can wrap your fingers round my thumb
    And hold me tight
    And you will be alright

    You’re just a small bump unknown
    You’ll grow into your skin
    With a smile like hers
    And a dimple beneath your chin
    Fingernails the size of a half grain of rice
    And eyelids closed to be soon open wide
    A small bump, in four months you’ll open your eyes

    And I’ll hold you tightly
    And tell you nothing but truth
    If you’re not inside me
    I’ll put my future in you

    You are my one and only
    And you can wrap your fingers round my thumb
    And hold me tight
    You are my one and only
    And you can wrap your fingers round my thumb
    And hold me tight
    And you will be alright

    Then you can lie with me, with your tiny feet
    When you’re half asleep, I’ll leave you be
    Right in front of me, for a couple weeks
    So I can keep you safe

    ‘Cause you are my one and only
    You can wrap your fingers round my thumb
    And hold me tight
    You are my one and only
    You can wrap your fingers round my thumb
    And hold me tight
    And you’ll be alright

    ‘Cause you were just a small bump unborn
    For four months, then torn from life
    Maybe you were needed up there
    But we’re still unaware as why

    letra de This

    This is the start of something beautiful
    This is the start of something new
    You are the one that make me lose it all
    You are the start of something new

    And I’ll throw it all away
    And watch you fall into my arms again
    And I’ll throw it all away
    And watch you fall, now

    You are the earth that I will stand upon
    You are the words that I will sing

    And I’ve thrown it all away
    And watched you fall into his arms again
    And I’ve thrown it all away
    And watched you fall, now

    And take me back, take me home
    Watch me fall down to earth
    Take me back

    For this is the start of something beautiful
    You are the start of something new

  8. The CityVer letra 3:54

    letra de The City

    This city never sleeps
    I hear the people walk by when it’s late
    Sirens bleed through my windowsill
    I can’t close my eyes
    Don’t control what I’m into

    This tower is alive
    The lights that blind keep me awake
    Hood up and lace untied
    Sleep fills my mind
    Can’t control what I’m into

    London calls me a stranger, a traveller
    This is now my home, my home

    I’m burning on the back street
    Stuck here sitting in the backseat
    I'm blazing on the street
    What I do isn't up to you
    And if the city never sleeps, then that makes two

    The pavement is my friend
    It will take me where I need to go
    I find it trips me up
    And puts me down
    This is not what I’m used to

    The shop across the road
    Fulfills my needs and gives me company
    When I need it
    Voices speak through my walls
    I don’t think I’m gonna make it past tomorrow

    London calls me a stranger, a traveller
    This is now my home, my home

    I’m burning on the back street
    Stuck here sitting in the backseat
    I'm blazing on the street
    What I do isn't up to you
    And if the city never sleeps, then that makes two

    And my lungs hurt, and my ears bled
    With the sound of the city life echoed in my head
    Do I need this to keep me alive?
    The traffic stops and starts, but I need to move along

    London calls me a stranger
    This is not my home, home

    I’m burning on the back street
    Stuck here sitting in the backseat
    I'm blazing on the street
    What I do isn't up to you
    And if the city never sleeps then that makes two

    letra de Lego House

    I'm gonna pick up the pieces
    And build a Lego house
    If things go wrong we can knock it down
    My three words have two meanings
    But there's one thing on my mind
    It's all for you

    And it's dark in a cold December
    But I've got you to keep me warm
    If you're broken, I will mend ya
    And I'll keep you sheltered from the storm that's raging on now

    I'm out of touch, I'm out of love
    I'll pick you up when you're getting down
    And out of all these things I've done
    I think I love you better now
    I'm out of sight, I'm out of mind
    I'll do it all for you in time
    And out of all these things I've done
    I think I love you better now
    Now

    I'm gonna paint you by numbers, and colour you in
    If things go right we can frame it, and put you on a wall
    And it's so hard to say it, but I've been here before
    Now I'll surrender up my heart, and swap it for yours

    I'm out of touch, I'm out of love
    I'll pick you up when you're getting down
    And out of all these things I've done
    I think I love you better now
    I'm out of sight, I'm out of mind
    I'll do it all for you in time
    And out of all these things I've done
    I think I love you better now

    Don't hold me down
    I think the braces are breaking
    And it's more than I can take

    And it's dark in a cold December
    But I've got you to keep me warm
    If you're broken I will mend ya
    And I'll keep you sheltered from the storm that's raging on, now

    I'm out of touch, I'm out of love
    I'll pick you up when you're getting down
    And out of all these things I've done
    I think I love you better now
    I'm out of sight, I'm out of mind
    I'll do it all for you in time
    And out of all these things I've done
    I think I love you better now

    I’m out of touch, I’m out of love
    I’ll pick you up when you’re getting down
    And out of all these things I’ve done
    I will love you better now

    I guess that’s how I know you
    So hold you close to help you give it up

    You wanna be loved, you wanna be loved

    Give me love like her
    'Cause lately I've been waking up alone
    Pain splattered teardrops on my shirt
    Told you I'd let them go

    And that I'll fight my corner
    Maybe tonight I'll call ya
    After my blood turns into alcohol
    No, I just wanna hold ya

    Give a little time to me
    Or burn this out
    We'll play hide and seek
    To turn this around

    My, my, my, my, oh give me love

    And it's been a while, but I still feel the same
    Maybe I should let you go

    You know I'll fight my corner

    After my blood is drowning in alcohol
    No, I just wanna hold ya

    Give a little time to me
