Act Natural 03:57
Meet me 'round the back door, they won't see us careful of the neighbours, rumour says they're jealous we'll be sneaking out to the street when the coast is clear someone's on the TV, she's so pretty shake her little fist and read the manifesto guess they think we're stupid, they're right but we won't get burned breathe out, they've not caught us we don't pray to their black stone goddess at all act natural, soon we'll disappear just behind the precinct, the wall breaches they'll be burning cars and waving blackened banners we'll be making our break, for sure when we're past the square all the helicopters and loudspeakers punctuate the silence, tell us we're defeated guess they think we're under the thumb but they never learn breathe out, they've not caught us we don't pray to their black stone goddess at all act natural, soon we'll disappear fool your family, you can't trust them and how well do you know your friends? you seem alright to me, far as I can tell ask your questions, you see they're scared they're not as tough as they seem up there so one more to doubt, and one less under the spell breathe out, they've not caught us we don't pray to their black stone goddess at all act natural, soon we'll disappear

All My Jokes 03:12
Girls used to think I was handsome and clever or maybe felt sorry for me, or whatever maybe I used to be cool but you never know all of the things that I did in my 20s [there were standouts] oh I'm sure there were plenty probably seemed cute at the time but I'm getting old you've heard all my jokes, and all my stories heard all my jokes, and you still like me heard all my jokes, and yet you're still here with me you've heard all my jokes, and they're not funny heard all my jokes, but you humour me got all my germs, but you still like kissing me I'm starting to get just a little bit wrinkly mostly I smell pretty nice, but I'm stinky things about me over time that you've learned to love how could you still think I'm pretty [who knows?] standing on stage in last year's clothes thinking I'm punk in my chucks and my messy hair you've heard all my jokes, and all my stories heard all my jokes, and you still like me heard all my jokes, and yet you're still here with me you've heard all my jokes, and they're not funny heard all my jokes, but you humour me got all my germs, but you still like kissing me I'm cranky and angry [your hobbies are strange] a creature of habit [and that won't change] if there was a medal for patience you'd get the gold how can it be so many years? [you're still around] it's not like you're some kind of fool [better choices abound] thank you for sticking around and for being cool you've heard all my jokes, and all my stories heard all my jokes, and you still like me heard all my jokes, and yet you're still here with me you've heard all my jokes, and they're not funny heard all my jokes, but you humour me know all my tricks, but you still believe in me here with me. not leaving me alone.

They sold that beloved house 'cause there's nobody left to fill it I'm left to wonder what it means something I can't ask about 'cause we severed our lives completely sometimes I wish we were 17 salad days and sometimes nights were picked-over bones when you took flight now you're a vapour in my mirror it's been so long, how did it come to this? fading into nothing in my mind the best thing I've ever done is forget you Heard rumours you moved around were you trying to find your senses? I'm sorry that was pretty mean I've always been sure about how I never could stand forgetting as sentimental as it seems how can you casually discard years of our lives, we tried so hard something's missing from your memory surly girl, it isn't fair but knowing you're out there can't compare to not forgetting, and forgiving this seems so wrong, we weren't meant to be no better than strangers should we meet the best thing I've ever done is forget you
4.
Go ahead act up if you've got to you know darn well that everyone wants you despite ourselves we take you seriously the dumbest things that I ever do are mostly just the times when I'm with you 'cause you don't like responsibility go ahead start fights if you've got to I'll tell you tomorrow cops nearly caught you offending every sensibility around the place we all hang about shenanigans get you so chucked out they let you back out of curiosity you'll borrow if you can't beg or steal the consequences are barely real so either way you're getting things for free even you know you're a mess it doesn't make me like you any less 'cause you and I, we've got a history you notice things that I don't see you're not aware of the irony so when you're drunk you tell the truth to me confessing things and feeling sad as habits go it's pretty bad but when you're drunk you tell the truth to me
5.
Your Damage 04:38
Break free from whatever you wanted all of your plans feel so absurd one night and your attic gets haunted now it's the most of your concerns I don't know if it's still going through your head I don't think you'll be going home tomorrow pinch me and we'll see if we're dreaming it's pretty clear that you aren't sure can't stay but you aren't leaving what we are now is not what we were maybe so, it's still spinning 'round your head but I think you'll be coming home tomorrow so it's time for coming clean, pretend I don't know but I've waited for so long for you to say so don't say it if it's not respectable but I've waited for so long for you to say so for a moment, you forgot yourself for a moment, maybe I was someone else and when you're home tomorrow you'll have such regrets do you think you might come back again? break free and we'll see if you're damaged you could be anywhere in the world don't question if you can manage it's just a tear in the eye of a girl so it's not a perfect dream, OK it's a shitshow but I've waited for so long for you to say so I don't care whether or not it's such a blow 'cause I've waited for so long for you to say so but I've waited for so long for you to say so and I've waited for so long for you to say so I suppose I'm assuming what you said means I've got your heart and your sorry self will follow

There is a place we can go it isn't far from where we're sitting now the price is still pretty low you're going to get it when you see. oh. no sound just walking around who better to be than you and me? I've never seen you this way before I think I know how you feel it only lingers for a little while this isn't life but it's real there just were things you couldn't see. see? not fear, but stay kind of near it's not being brave all the same I'll never see you the same again we're not coming out you'll have to come and get us I guess we're not having doubts are you foe or friend? we're not coming out you'll just have to come and get us I guess we're not coming out. not yet well every word that you say sounds just a little more amusing now will echo after today you're lost and laughing here with me. stay the world's bright and honest tonight and we wouldn't dream of being mean I've never trusted this way before we're not coming out you'll have to come and get us I guess we're not having doubts are you foe or friend? we're not coming out you'll just have to come and get us I guess we're not coming out. not yet
