"Black Swan" (2009)




Superhuman Touch lyrics - athlete

I'm on fire and nothing's gonna hold me back
Endless blue sky and a pocket full of tricks to try
You pick a colour and I'll sing it for you
I know you feel the same way
Say, say, say you feel the same way.

Fingertips alive - superhuman touch
Can't get enough of this electric love
Burning the sun with just a wave of your hand
Sparks flying out in every direction
There's more of this to come I think it must be heaven
Burning the sun with just a wave of your hand

I'm on fire, golden echoes upon my face
Tell those dreamers
They can dream up all they like in this place
You pick a colour and I'll sing it for you
I know you feel the same way
Say, say, say you feel the same way.

Fingertips alive - superhuman touch
Can't get enough of this electric love
Burning the sun with just a wave of your hand
Sparks flying out in every direction
There's more of this to come I think it must be heaven
Burning the sun with just a wave of your hand

Just one day like this will keep me going on
Tender kisses will keep me going on

Fingertips alive - superhuman touch
Can't get enough of this electric love
Burning the sun with just a wave of your hand
Sparks flying out in every direction
There's more of this to come I think it must be heaven
Burning the sun with just a wave of your hand

Seems like heaven's broken loose
It couldn't be more beautiful
I just want to burn the sun with you
A messed up garden to inspire
The greatest minds in all their power
I just want to burn the sun with you
In just a wave of your hand.

The Getaway lyrics - athlete

I never really know who you are
You could be a ghost for all I know
whenever you're home
Picking up pieces of my heart
Like leaves that have fallen on our garden path

Who's gonna fly your plane
When you need to make your getaway?

But I'm still holding on
Calling you back home, calling you back

I never really know who you are
You could be a ghost for all I know
whenever you're home
Used to be closer than my skin
Turned a blind eye to the odds and I bet everything

Who's gonna fly your plane
When you need to make your getaway?

But I'm still holding on
Calling you back home, calling you back
You hear my flesh and my bones
They're calling you back home, they're calling you back

This house lives in silence for most of the year
You're a million miles away but you couldn't be nearer
Please break my heart just so I can feel
At least I would have something that I could believe

But I'm still holding on
Calling you back home, calling you back
You hear my flesh and my bones
They're calling you back home, they're calling you back

OH OH OH

Black Swan Song lyrics - athlete

I waded through the darkest fields you'd imagine
Your pretty face sketched on the barrel of my gun
And I know you'll be the first to welcome me
When I climb into eternity
Oh, oh

The forest always kept us warm
But it doesn't feel like home anymore
And I know there's bigger mountains where you are
And a better climate for my heart
Oh, oh

I've been racing the clock
And I've run out of steam
I am ready for my final symphony
Oh my body is weak
But my soul is still strong
I am ready to rest in your arms

Though many battles I have won
I lost too many friends I could count on
And I know they'll be the first to welcome me
When I parachute into eternity
Oh, oh

I've been racing the clock
And I've run out of steam
I am ready for my final symphony
Oh my body is weak
But my soul is still strong
I am ready to rest in your arms

And the rain beat down on the rooftops
But there was no sound
There was no sound
And all my friends and family carried me
They carried me home
Carried me home

I've been racing the clock
And I've run out of steam
I am ready for my final symphony
Oh my body is weak
But my soul is still strong
I am ready to rest in your arms
I've been racing the clock
And I've run out of steam
I am ready for my final symphony
Oh my body is weak
But my soul is still strong
I am ready to rest in your arms
Oh, oh

Don't Hold Your Breath lyrics - athlete

Don't hold your breath cause we're running in circles
Silence runs along phone lines
I feel like I am swimming through pavements
And then the dark throws me a lifeline

I'll be the sky that lights up with fireworks
Whenever November comes
And you could be the greatest thing that has happened to me
Though I don't know you now

Don't hold your breath
cause we've already been here
There are trees to remember you by
These trees are cold but they're anticipating
The sun is gonna give the kiss of life

I'll be the sky that lights up with fireworks
Whenever November comes
And you could be the greatest thing that has happened to me
Though I don't know you now

I'm blowing breath on the windowpane
Sketching your name with my finger
I'm blowing breath on the windowpane
Sketching your face with my finger

I'll be the sky that lights up with fireworks
Whenever November comes
And you could be the greatest thing that has happened to me
Though I don't know you now

I'll be the sky that lights up with fireworks
Whenever November comes
And you could be the greatest thing that has happened to me
Though I don't know you now

Love Come Rescue lyrics - athlete

Mother do you still love this child?
Baby on the run
Father would you forgive me now?
When you see what I have become

Love come rescue
Love come rescue

There's a swallow on the phone wire
Singing songs unto my pain
Songs I will remember
To life me up again

Love come rescue
Love come rescue
Love come rescue
Love come rescue

Light The Way lyrics - athlete

I was lost oh no
And my heart beat with the stereo
As the sun rose in your eyes
You shot a look that killed me

Can you work it out for yourself?
I couldn't work it out for myself

Keep it coming and I'll light the way home
Keep it coming and I'll light the way home
I'll be there to take your hurt
Even if I come off worse
Keep it coming and I'll light the way home
Keep it coming and I'll light the way home
I'll be there to take your hurt
Even if I come off worse

I was lost for words
Lost inside your dream world

Can you work it out for yourself?
I couldn't work it out for myself oh no

Keep it coming and I'll light the way home
Keep it coming and I'll light the way home
I'll be there to take your hurt
Even if I come off worse
Keep it coming and I'll light the way home
Keep it coming and I'll light the way home
I'll be there to take your hurt
Even if I come off worse

Keep it coming and I'll light the way home
Keep it coming and I'll light the way home
I'll be there to take your hurt
Even if I come off worse
Keep it coming and I'll light the way home
Keep it coming and I'll light the way home
I'll be there to take your hurt
Even if I come off worse

The Unknown lyrics - athlete

Let your world be wide open
And your fears be blown apart
May your voice be louder than bombs
Somewhere in silence find one to trust

Life your head up
Untie the knot
My little sunshine
Hope is never light-years away

Let your senses be ignited
By streams of neon singing in the dark
Connected to the planet
A million neighbours
A sea of stars

Life your head up
Untie the knot
My little sunshine
Hope is never light-years away

Leaders, lovers come and go
Outside forces you can't control
Oh I see you smiling at the unknown
Oh I see you smiling at the unknown

Life your head up
Untie the knot
My little sunshine
Hope is never light-years away

Life your head up
Untie the knot
My little sunshine
Hope is never light-years away

The Awkward Goodbye lyrics - athlete

My heart is a stone
You don't want to go there
But I don't mind if you try

If you should go
I'll be a soldier
But I can't fight without you

And outside love moves on
To an imaginary world
Where we both belong
In an imaginary world

My heart is a stone
You don't want to go there
But I don't mind if you try

We studied the cold
Yeah we made friends with it
And it brought us back
Our bodies intact

And no one knows how I love you
No one comes even close
And sunlight runs through my veins for you

And outside love moves on
To an imaginary world
Where we both belong
In an imaginary world

And no one knows how I love you
No one comes even close
And sunlight runs through my veins for you

And no one knows how I love you
No one comes even close
And sunlight runs through my veins for you

I put my hands up
'Cause this is so obvious
That look in your eye
Of an awkward goodbye

Magical Mistakes lyrics - athlete

You'll always be my pretty dancer
Spinning trails of fairy dust
Making moves like nobody else
On your own
If anybody needs a reason it's right here

Giving me shockwaves
Those magical mistakes
Sending shockwaves through my atmosphere
If anybody needs a reason it's right here

If those eyelids were the shutter to my camera
Maybe I would see the world in different light
You wear that smile like nobody else
On your own
If anybody needs a reason it's right here

Giving me shockwaves
Those magical mistakes
Sending shockwaves through my atmosphere
If anybody needs a reason it's right here

Stay gold
Keep your balance on the tightrope
Chasing after
My pretty dancer

Giving me shockwaves
Those magical mistakes
Sending shockwaves through my atmosphere
If anybody needs a reason it's right here

Giving me shockwaves
Those magical mistakes
Sending shockwaves through my atmosphere
If anybody needs a reason it's right here

Rubik's Cube lyrics - athlete

The world is too heavy
Too big for my shoulders
Come take this weight off me now

1000's of answers
To one simple question
Come take this weight off me now

Oh I'm like a kid who just won't let it go
Twisting and turning the colours in rows
I'm so intent to find out what it is
This is my Rubik's cube
I know I will figure it out

Lost in the playground
Late night nostalgia
Open the sky for me now

Friends round the fire
Outside in December
Open the sky for me now

Oh I'm like a kid who just won't let it go
Twisting and turning the colours in rows
I'm so intent to find out what it is
This is my Rubik's cube
I know I will figure it out

Credits roll over the edge of horizons
That I haven't discovered yet

Oh I'm like a kid who just won't let it go
Twisting and turning the colours in rows
I'm so intent to find out what it is
This is my Rubik's cube
I know I will figure it out

Oh I'm like a kid who just won't let it go
Twisting and turning the colours in rows
I'm so intent to find out what it is
This is my Rubik's cube
I know I will figure it out

"Beyond The Neighbourhood" (2007)




Hurricane lyrics - athlete

All the places we grew up,
We're playing hide and seek,
Disappearing wall when you'll sleep

Is it something we gotta get used to?
Is it something we gotta get used to? whoa.

Hurricane.
Oh hurricane.

All the millions that we marched with
It never made a sound, never made a sound on your lips.

Is it something we gotta get used to?
But we're not giving up the coastline so easily.

Oh hurricane.
Oh hurricane.

I don't wanna run,
I've been here since I was young
Whoa this city day could be gone within the hour.

Oh hurricane, what you gonna do to us this time?
Oh hurricane, what you gonna do to us this time?

Oh hurricane!

Is it something we gotta get used to?
[x2]
And it's something we gotta get used to..
And we're not giving up the coastline so easily.

Oh hurricane!

Tokyo lyrics - athlete

I am Tokyo
I am here
I am blazing lights
On your street.

I'm an upstart
Bound to cross you
I'm the hypocrite
By your side

She won't forget
And I won't forget

And no one around could tell us apart
Cause we want out something
And where something heart

I am Tokyo
I am here
I am neon signs
On your street

I'm an army
Of winter vines
Marching over your countryside

And she won't forget
And I won't forget

And no one around could tell us apart
Cause we ruined something
And where something heart.

There's never enough time
Only, only
Glove off, something bridge.

Pin prick to the heart
Can it go
I meant every spark

And no one around could tell us apart
Cause we ruined something
And where something heart.

We're burning thru town
Like there's nothing to lose
Cause we something
Something by heart... oh!

Airport Disco lyrics - athlete

It's just a blur of red and yellow
Lovers dancing to the beat
I saw you at the center of it all
The most beautiful thing

Oh, I want to take you home
With me tonight
I want to take you home
With me tonight

Some are here to remember
Some are here to forget
That we used you for nothing
And we couldn't care less

Oh, beautiful world.
Can I win you back?
Beautiful world.

Have you figured it out yet?
Have you figured it out yet?
So why don't you share it with us?

Just a blur of red and yellow
That everyone chose to ignore
We all sucked that beauty from you
And kept coming back for more

Oh, beautiful world
Can I win you back?
Beautiful world

Have you figured it out yet?
Have you figured it out yet?
So why don't you share it with us?

Oh beautiful world
Can I win you back?
Beautiful world

Have you figured it out yet?
Have you figured it out yet?
So why don't you share it with us?

Have you figured it out yet?
Have you figured it out yet?
So why don't you share it with us?
With us...

It's Not Your Fault lyrics - athlete

It's not your fault
You didn't see it coming
90 miles an hour
Gone so fast and now you're left with nothing
At all.

It's not your fault
I give up every part of you
That they could spare
Mixed between the petrol
And the one lie
And it's code

Their still in your eyes
And now that your gone to some place else
I can't save you
Because the brightest lights are closing in on us.

But their still your eyes
And now that your gone to some place else
I can't save you
So I'm giving every part of you away.

It's not your fault
Something
You made up to your bedroom every night
Leaves us chasing memories and trying to understand
We can't wait

But their still eyes
And now that your gone to some place
I can't save you
Because the brightest lights are closing in on us.

But their still your eyes
And now that your gone to some place else
I can't save you
So I'm giving every part of you away.

I'm not gone
What the hell just happened here?
I'm not gone
What the hell just happened?

The Outsiders lyrics - athlete

We can walk in straight lines
We can't see quite right
We've lost the plot
And we can't get it back
So lets lose ourselves
Lets lose ourselves

Can you spot the English here?

Let's pick a fight on whomever we like
Cause we're never wrong
Nobody likes us
We don't care
So let's lose ourselves
Let's lose ourselves

Can you spot the English here?

We can see it for real
But it doesn't make sense
We're the outsiders
We can see all this speech
Come staggering out
And we can climbs its way
To the top of that cloud

I'm away with the fairies now
[x4]

This familiar environment
Gets my lungs confused
I breath in every particle
That you drive thru
That you drive thru

Well can you spot the English here?

We can see it for real
But it doesn't make sense
We're the outsiders
We can see all this speech
Come staggering out
And it can its way to the top
Of that cloud

Oh I'm away with the fairies now
[x4]

Flying Over Bus Stops lyrics - athlete

I belong with your arms wrapped around my neck
Your lips glistening in the light
Awesome headlights passing by

Hold thought, I hold the thought
Walking back towards your house
Raindrops bouncing off the leaves
Down to our September kiss

Flying over bus stops and playgrounds
I'm here
Soaked right to the core
Stay here forever
I'm safe with you

If the words I've ever wrote
On the backs of envelopes
I could fold to paper planes
I would fly them thru your veins
Helicopters overhead
Wide awake at 3am
Now the ink runs to your heart
And you know just how I feel

Flying over bus stops and playgrounds
I'm here
Soaked right to the core
Stay here forever
I'm safe with you

Flying over bus stops and playgrounds
I'm here
Soaked right to the core
Stay here forever
I'm safe with you

Second Hand Stores lyrics - athlete

Let's fall in love again
Tap the windows
And rescue our friends
How long til this makes sense
Oh, oh

Let's fall in love again
Guard the windows
And rescue our friends
How long til this makes sense
Oh, oh

It's calling out loud and it's taking over
Bleeding right out of the summer sky
It's calling out and it's taking over
We give it our all, so we don't know why
We can't slow it down
It's way too fast
Slow it down
It's way to fast

We're going on a search in some
Second hand stores
Gotta get back what we all threw away
We're going on a search in the middle of nowhere
We don't know what we're doing but we gotta just give it a go
We gotta just give it a go

Let's fall in love again
Tap the windows
And rescue our friends
How long til this makes sense
Oh, oh

Let's fall in love again
Guard the windows
And rescue our friends
How long til this makes sense
Oh, oh

Now let's sing this song again
Cause it's been messed up for years
And let's make it ours again

Desperate like rainforest trees
Straining towards broken light
All fighting for their lives

Let's something something
Cause thats where this song began
Born out of true romance

It's calling out loud and it's taking over
Bleeding right out of the summer sky
It's calling out and it's taking over
We give it our all, so we don't know why
We can't slow it down
It's way too fast
Slow it down
It's way to fast

We're going on a search in some
Second hand stores
Gotta get back what we all threw away
We're going on a search in the middle of nowhere
We don't know what we're doing but we gotta just give it a go
We gotta just give it a go

Slow it down
It's way too fast
Slow it down
It's way too fast
[x2]

In The Library lyrics - athlete

Put your finger on my lips
We could be a grown up fairy tale
Swimming in a library
We're not going anywhere

She said I love it
Oh I love it when we touch
When we touch on something
We can't find it any something

Something on my own
In this ocean of words
These something on my own

Cover up the blankets
Cover up the blankets from the years
That our parents gave us
To keep out the cold
And the unknown
Something regrew
Into a forest of desire
Cut down some friends that I knew
Who were gonna start a forest fire

Something on my own
In this ocean of words
Something on my own.

Can't stop the spill.
Can't stop the spill.
Can't stop the spill.

She said I love it
I love it when we touch
When we touch on something
We can't find it any something

This Is What I Sound Like lyrics - athlete

Do you know what your fighting for
Well let's fight, let's fight.
Do you know what we're asking for
Cause i don't sometimes

I just wanna kick off at something
Go to town and then make a scene
We're not sure what were fighting for
But we'll fight

And just wanna give you something that i haven't got
I'm a walking advertisement of both light and dark
I'm not making any sense
I'm not making any sense
I mess up but don't forget
That this is what I sound like
This is what I sound like
Just to remind myself
That this is what I sound like

I was lost in a hotel bar I was lost, I was lost
Is someone out there just laughing at us
Cause it seems that way

Stop at nothing to get what we want
Too young to realize
We're all the same
I was lost in a hotel bar
I was lost

And just wanna give you something that i haven't got
I'm a walking advertisement of both light and dark
I'm not making any sense
I'm not making any sense
I mess up but don't forget
That this is what I sound like
This is what I sound like
Just to remind myself
That this is what I sound like

Best Not To Think About It lyrics - athlete

He sees the flames in her tears
Sketching on her skin and he knows
That it's come to an end
And it's no point pretending it's not

And it's a long way down, a long way down from here
And it's a long way down, a long way down from here

So she smashes the glass
And there's blood on her hands and her skirt
There's the wind and a sun,
A fresh air in her lungs once again

And it's a long way down, a long way down from here
And it's a long way down, a long way down from here

So he closes his eyes
And thinks 'Maybe I'll be surprised if I do
I just might fall into another realm
And make another home there with you'

And it's a long way down, a long way down from here
And it's a long way down, a long way down from here

It's best not to think about it
Just put your arms around me

It's best not to think about it
Just put your arms around me

It's best not to think about it
Just put your arms around me, oh

"Tourist" (2005)




Chances lyrics - athlete

Take all your chances while you can
You never know when they'll pass you by
Like a sum the mathematician cannot solve
Like me trying my hardest to explain

It's all about your cries and kisses
Those first steps that I can't calculate
I need some more of you to take me over

Take me over

If I had the chance to start again
Then you would be the one I'd come and find
Like the poster of Berlin on my wall
Maybe there's a chance our walls might fall

It's all about your cries and kisses
Those first steps that I can't calculate
I need some more of you to take me over

It's all about your cries and kisses
Those first steps that I can't calculate
I need some more of you to take me over

I know I because I cant calculate

How to respect you
How to start again
How to start again
How to start again

It's all about you

Half Light lyrics - athlete

The sun got stuck, as it's making it's way back down,
We find ourselves, in a familiar part of town

And all that I've seen means nothing to me without you

So when I see you next we'll make the most of it,
Tell the sun to start moving again,
The taste of your kiss I still got on my lips,
And ill take you there with me

Head crashed down, air conditioned myself to sleep,
The great night out, that will continue to the end of the week

And all that I've seen means nothing to me without you

So when I see you next we'll make the most of it,
Tell the sun to start moving again,
The taste of your kiss I still got on my lips,
And ill take you there with me

It's you and me connected to a satellite
It's you and me love through a machine
It's you and me connected to a satellite
It's you and me love through a machine

So when I see you next we'll make the most of it,
Tell the sun to start moving again,
The taste of your kiss I still got on my lips,
And ill take you there with me

Tourist lyrics - athlete

This European air
It always warms my face
I wish I could pass on
I will bring you stories
And bleary-eyed photos
Like a regular tourist
We don't go breaking down
I feel like nothing ever will
We don't go breaking down
I feel like nothing
Suitcases down our street
Are rolling once again
I roll away with them
Five days inside Zoo York
To lose myself with friends
I'm nowhere without you
We don't go breaking down
I feel like nothing ever will
We don't go breaking down
I feel like nothing ever will
We will never go breaking down
I feel like nothing
Just wanna be with you
My baby
Just wanna be with you
My baby
Just wanna be with you
My baby
Just wanna be with you
My baby
I'm counting up the cost of time
And when I waste some time away
We cannot save ourselves alone
Or live life on a mobile phone
I'm counting up the cost of time (just wanna be with you, my baby)
And when I waste some time away (just wanna be with you, my baby)
We cannot save ourselves alone (just wanna be with you, my baby)
Or live life on a mobile phone (just wanna be with you, my baby)
Just wanna be with you
My baby
Just wanna be with you
My baby
Just wanna be with you

Trading Air lyrics - athlete

Covered ground just to reach your house
I know we need to talk
but I can't catch my thoughts
Insides gripped scared of what you'll think
Words I cant repeat
could change all we've got

Set it off
someone better hit the alarm
Set it off
someone better help me disarm myself
I dont want no one else
All I want is you
All I want is you

Trading air once more from the start
I can open up a thousand paper cuts
People hear what they want to hear
but they wont change a thing
no they wont change a thing

Set it off
someone better hit the alarm
Set it off
someone better help me disarm myself
I dont want no one else
All I want is you
All I want is you

Disarm myself
I dont want no one else
All I want is you
All I want is you

Disarm myself
I dont want no one else
All I want is you
All I want is you

Wires lyrics - athlete

You got wires, going in
You got wires, coming out of your skin
You got tears, making tracks
I got tears, that are scared of the facts

Running, down corridors through, automatic doors
Got to get to you, got to see this through
I see hope is here, in a plastic box
I've seen christmas lights, reflect in your eyes

You got wires, going in
You got wires, coming out of your skin
There's dry blood, on your wrist
Your dry blood on my fingertip

Running, down corridoors through, automatic doors
Got to get to you, got to see this through
First night of your life, curled up on your own
Looking at you now, you would never know

I see it in your eyes, I see it in your eyes
You'll be alright
I see it in your eyes, I see it in your eyes
You'll be alright

Alright

Running, down corridors through, automatic doors
Got to get to you, got to see this through
I see hope is here, in a plastic box
I've seen christmas lights, reflect in your eyes
down corridors, through automatic doors
Got to get to you, got to see this through
First night of your life, curled up on your own
Looking at you now, you would never know.

If I Found Out lyrics - athlete

Out of energy
I dont know what to do with myself
Made it eventually
And now I resting on the very last breath

And all I needed was this one to get me back on my way
It wasn't long before I realised there was no time to waste
There was soul all around me
Everybody let go
It wasnt long before we realised
There was no time to waste

Like Im eleven again
I was the highest kid in the world
I reached a point with no end
Just looking out so I can take it all in

And all I needed was this one to get me back on my way
It wasn't long before I realised there was no time to waste
There was soul all around me
Everybody let go
It wasnt long before we realised
There was no time to waste

And all I needed was this one to get me back on my way
It wasn't long before I realised there was no time to waste

[Choir]
Ooohhhh soul
Ooohhhh soul

I thank you, for soul
No point unless you got soul
This world has got to have soul
Looking round for your soul

Digging down digging down digging down to your soul
That I found out that you got soul
You'll be holding out all your soul

Lifted up all your soul
Cos I thank you for soul

Yesterday Threw Everything At Me lyrics - athlete

Elevated to your side, Now i'm nervous
It's time to tell you honestly, so we can alter history

You are, first on my list,
When everything around is gone i know
You are, first on my list
When everything is shown up for what it is

Plastic flowers that fight for colour
Shadows floating on the ground, that always follow
Like international acclam, it comes and goes never the same

You are, first on my list,
When everything around is gone i know
You are, first on my list
When everything is shown up for what it is

And i will run with you
And sunlight will break into my eyes
And it seems you plugged in the world in
'cause sunlight is streaming from your eyes

You are, first on my list,
When everything around is gone i know
You are, first on my list
When everything is shown up for what it is

Let's take our time, it won't change over night
we got a chance we didn't have before
Let's take our time, it won't change over night
we got a chance we didn't have before

You are, first on my list,
When everything around is gone i know
You are, first on my list
When everything is shown up for what it is

Street Map lyrics - athlete

I would like to think our paths are straight
Disconnected from choices we make
That there is no reason why it can't be like you said

One day it's gonna happen
I dont know when
I'll be on your street
But I know one day it's gonna happen
You're gonna be swept off your feet

I would like someone to make a map
Mark my home and draw some lines that match
All of the reasons why
It can be like you said

One day It's gonna happen
I don't know when
I'll be on your street
But I know one day it's gonna happen
You're gonna be swept of your feet

I dont know when
I dont know why
I dont know when
I dont know why

One day It's gonna happen
I don't know when
I'll be on your street
But I know one day it's gonna happen
You're gonna be swept of your feet

But all that I know is it's gonna happen
I dont know when
I'll be on your street
But I know it's gonna happen
Your gonna be swept of your feet

Modern Mafia lyrics - athlete

Tell me something I dont know
cause we've been there ten times before
Make it up as we go along
And we're n so deep it can't be wrong
It's obvious that

This is modern mafia
They're scared of us, they're scared of us
It's time for us to redefine
So fix your eyes, fix your eyes
This is modern mafia
They're scared of us, they're scared of us
I dont' want to be on my own
I need a home, I need a home

Theres a look that's in your eye
Dancing like a samurai
In silence you're still listening
Cause somewhere somethings happening
It's obvious that

This is modern mafia
They're scared of us, there scared of us
It's time for us to redefine
So fix your eyes, fix your eyes
This is modern mafia
They're scared of us, They're scared of us
I dont' want to be on my own
I need a home, I need a home

This is modern mafia
They're scared of us, they're scared of us
It's time for us to redefine
So fix your eyes, fix your eyes
This is modern mafia
They're scared of us, They're scared of us
I don't want to be on my own
I need a home, I need a home

This is modern mafia
They're scared of us, they're scared of us
It's time for us to redefine
So fix your eyes, fix your eyes

Twenty Four Hours lyrics - athlete

People rushing left to right
There's pretty faces left to right
I'm just frozen staring into space

Faster than the speed of light
I'm holding on, I'm holding tight
Cause stars are gonna crash into this place

And it's caught wide screen so we dont miss a thing
Now I'm standing clear
cause all I waited for is

Closing in,
We've still got twenty four hours
We're closing in,
We've still got twenty four hours

This is more than daily bread,
It's three degrees, It's something else,
And you just take it all into your stride

Couldn't be an accident
Cause I cant see no ambulance,
I know that we will work it out this time

And its caught wide screen so we dont miss a thing
Now I'm standing clear 'cause all I waited for is...

Closing in,
We've still got twenty four hours
We're closing in,
We've still got twenty four hours

Closing in,
We've still got twenty four hours
Now we're closing in,
We've still got twenty four hours

It's not over, It's not over
We've still got twenty four hours
It's not over, It's not over yet
We've still got twenty four hours

I Love lyrics - athlete

Fire on the hill
fire in me still
I feel out of my league
but you turn around and say to me that
I love everybody here
and I agree
I love everybody here

Summers long gone out
Sun comes up like its been about a year
But I dont mind if we drink again my friend cos,
there is so much left to say

There is so much left to say
There is so much left to say
There is so much left to say

People for miles
opening up
People for miles
and focusing on
we'd be ok if we had
answers to questions and rhymes and in reasons
should leave it to me to be all the four seasons

You see I love everybody here
And I agree I love everybody here
I love everybody here
I love everybody here
Well I love everybody here
I love everybody here
Life is beautiful for sure
Cos I love everybody here

El Salvador lyrics - athlete

It's time to tear this place down
I've got the last gig on my mind
Not seen my friends in ages
Have i been left behind?

It's time to figure out why
I find myself in custody
With each and every question
Words come so easily

Fly to el salvador
I don't know why and i don't know what for
I've seen the picture for myself
Where did that label go?
I tried it out but it didn't work so
I'll choose the picture for myself

It's time to start all over
Take only one thing spare to wear
Head for the check-in lights and get up into the air
It's time to take new measures
Someone will put us up tonight
Far from our place of rest
I've almost got you in sight

Fly to el salvador
I don't know why and i don't know what for
I've seen the picture for myself
Where did that label go?
I tried it out but it didn't work so
I'll choose the picture for myself

First class and big hotels
(i can't quite put my finger on it)
Videos and global sales
(i can't quite put my finger on it)
Free drinks that you pay yourself
(i can't quite put my finger on it)

Fly to el salvador
I don't know why and i don't know what for
I've seen the picture for myself
Where did that label go?
I tried it out but it didn't work so
I'll choose the picture for myself

Westside lyrics - athlete

All the energetic people they all sparkle as they're walking down the street
Can't see their faces but i've noticed they seem to have big hands the stage is set, is the glamour,
Who's got my etnies?
Now you know that i can see you and you know that it is easy
To see me something has been on my mind, something has struck me kind of odd, look out for quicksand,
There is high ground
Who wants this rockscene?

We sing
Whenever you look you can see that everybody wants to be part of the rockscene
Whenever you look you can see that everybody wants to be part of the rockscene

Now the time has come and yeah the show it must stay strong
And are we all part of the latest craze or is this how we mend our ways
I can hear the taxi calling, telling me we haven't left yet.
As the lights go on we're out tonight somehow you seem to stand out
In a crowd you raise the tempo in the disco as you make this place your own
The stage is set, is the glamour i'm in this rockscene

[Chorus]
Whenever you look you can see that everybody wants to be part of the rock scene
Whenever you look you can see that everybody wants to be part of the rock scene
Whenever you look you can see that everybody wants to be part of the rock scene
Whenever you look you can see that everybody wants to be part of the rock scene

House on the rock
Surely it will last forever?
House on the rock
Don't you know it's now or never?
House on the rock
Surely it will last forever?
House on the rock

[Chorus]
Whenever you look you can see that everybody wants to be part of the rock scene
Whenever you look you can see that everybody wants to be part of the rock scene
Whenever you look you can see that everybody wants to be part of the rock scene
Whenever you look you can see that everybody wants to be part of the rock scene

When when when when whenever, rock scene [repeat]

One Million lyrics - athlete

There was just one at the top of a pile of one million
And she hasn't got a clue that she's become
A good samaritan
I missed her name before i blink from the scene she'd run away
If i got the chance to meet her once again
What would i hear her say?
It was just one of those things i needed to deal with
It was just one of those things
It was just one of those things i needed to deal with

There was just one at the top of a pile of one million
And there's no way of counting all our loss
What was i thinking of?
As it kicks off i kept myself to myself and looked away
Should've put my foot in but i just stayed
Wrapped up in my own world

It was just one of those things i needed to deal with
It was just one of those things
It was just one of those things i needed to deal with

There was just one at the top of a pile of one million
And she will be there for many years to come
Wondering where i am

It was just one of those things i needed to deal with
It was just one of those things
It was just one of those things that i should've dealt with
It was just one of those things

(this was just one of those things i needed to deal with
This was just one of those things
This was just one of those things i needed to deal with
This was just one of those things)

(this is just one of those things i needed to deal with
This is just one of those things)

Shake Those Windows Lyrics - athlete

Lives in edinburgh
Just across the road
Sometimes my stereo and in my aching bones
Its on the sugar hill and in your ringtone

Shake those windows
Songs and songs and beats and rhymes in life
This blackout it just helps to love those clear night skies

Just let the record play and bring it back again
You can't appreciate what we were into then
In two seconds the beat was recognised
And all the old school heads nodded back in time
And though we just met i've known you all my life

Shake those windows
Songs and songs and beats and rhymes in life
This blackout it just helps to love those clear night skies

Just let the record play and bring it back again
You can't appreciate what we were into then
Just let the record play and bring it back again
You can't appreciate what we were into then

Just let the record play and bring it back again
You can't appreciate what we were into then
Just let the record play and bring it back again
You can't appreciate what we were into then

Just let yourself go
Just let yourself go
Just let yourself go
Just let yourself go

Just let yourself go
Just let yourself go
Just let yourself go
Just let yourself go

Beautiful Lyrics - athlete

Bringing in the new sound
Make it in, oh please make it in
Oh i have been missing
Fill me in, please fill me in

Oh this is beautiful
I've got to soak it up
I've got to soak it up
Oh this is beautiful
I've got to soak it up
I've got to soak it up

Give me teeth that are golden
Grown up food to eat
Shine, shine that light
Make it in, bring it in

Oh this is beautiful
I've got to soak it up
I've got to soak it up

Oh-oh this is beautiful
I've got to soak it up
I've got to soak it up

Oh this is beautiful
I've got to soak it up
I've got to soak it up

Oh-oh this is beautiful
I've got to soak it up
I've got to soak it up

New Project Lyrics - athlete

There's a house at the end of the road
It's got no windows and it's hard to see what is going on in there
There's a man and he asks you what you want
He's got no reason but you feel like you can't just ignore what he says
Imagine he's all you've got
Imagine he's all you've got
There's a house at the end of the road
It's got no windows and it's hard to make out what you just came here for
Catch the sun through the trees as you are walking
Through the garden
You've just got to get in before they close the door

Imagine he's all you've got
Imagine he's all you've got

Imagine this is all you have come across
Imagine she's all you've got
Imagine this is all you will ever have
Imagine he's all you've got

You Got The Style Lyrics - athlete

Oh no
Gone and put my foot in it again
Think back i can't believe that it was me who said that
Last time
I promised i'd bite my tongue until i counted to ten
(five six seven eight nine and ten)
I said oh it's getting hot in here
Must be something in the atmosphere
Oh oh-oh oh oh

Oh it's getting hot in here
Must be something in the atmosphere
Oh i could be laughing about it
And making the most of the true british climate
Oh it's getting hot in here
Must be something in the atmosphere
Oh oh-oh oh oh

I've seen
The tension on the high street growing lately
It seems that you have to be careful who you look at
Sometimes
I can't see things the way you see them
But this is our home

I said
Oh it's getting hot in here
Must be something in the atmosphere
Oh i could be laughing about it
And making the most of the true british climate
Oh it's getting hot in here
Must be something in the atmosphere
Oh oh-oh oh oh

Yeah you got the style
And we've got the style
And they got the style
And everybody's got it

And you got the style
And we've got the style
And they got the style
And everybody's got it

And you got the style
And we've got the style
Oh oh

Oh it's getting hot in here
Must be something in the atmosphere
Oh i could be laughing about it
And making the most of the true british climate
Oh it's getting hot in here
Must be something in the atmosphere
Oh oh-oh oh oh

Vehicles & Animals Lyrics - athlete

It's the simple things like the robots stevie g draws
And the ease with which you seem to pull those tricks
There are moments of escape for every one of us
And the beauty in the times that we create
I saw you smiling
And i need my vehicles and animals
And i will be alright
And take me back to nineteen seventy nine so i can find my open eyes
He can play all by himself for many hours
I have never seen a kid who's so content
There is nothing from the outside that can touch him
Cos he's just learning how to be alone with one
I saw you smiling
And i need my vehicles and animals
And i will be alright
Take me back to nineteen seventy nine so i can find my open eyes
And i need my vehicles and animals
And i will be alright
Take me back to nineteen seventy nine so i can find my open eyes

Lying down on my bed
I just got another kick to the head
Oh yeah you're a part of me
Yet another branch on the family tree
Salt on my fingers salt in my cuts
Salt on my face and salt in my guts
It's been a battle but we've come through ok
Stop what you're doing and play

Cos we've got our vehicles and animals so
We're gonna be alright
There's no need for us to go back in time
Because we've found our open eyes

We've got our vehicles and animals
So we're gonna be alright
There's no need for us to go back in time
Because we've found our open eyes

Out Of Nowhere Lyrics - athlete

(Mmmmmmm
Mmmmmmm)
Seven out a twenty one knocked down now only fourteen left to go
I didn't know that i was next in line but it is not as if i had much time
Jet black all around me voices calling saying please don't go away
Last thing i remember drifting down this tunnel was bright light ahead

Out of nowhere it came and hit me on the head
Out of nowhere
I saw it over there before it hit you on the head
I saw it over there
Out of nowhere it came and hit me on the head
Out of nowhere
I saw it over there before it hit you on the head
I saw it over there

(Mmmmmmm
Mmmmmmm)

Seven out a twenty one knocked down now only fourteen left to go
Didn't know that i was next in line but it is not as if i had much time
Jet black all around me voices calling saying please don't go away
Last thing i remember drifting down this tunnel was bright light ahead

Then
When i came around somebody helped me to my feet and said i can't believe you're still alive
I seen twenty other people in the last half an hour who've been hit right between the eyes
It seems that somebody somewhere's on a mission to protect ya cos there's no way that you should've
Survived
Hurrah, hurrah, hurrah (hurrah)
We're still alive

Out of nowhere it came and hit me on the head
Out of nowhere
I saw it over there before it hit you on the head
I saw it over there
Out of nowhere it came and hit me on the head
Out of nowhere
I saw it over there before it hit you on the head
I saw it over there

Out of nowhere it came and hit me on the head
Out of nowhere
I saw it over there before it hit you on the head
I saw it over there

Out of nowhere

Dungeness Lyrics - athlete

I found a rope and a rubber glove
You found some pretty stones and they had holes so you could tie them together
Tie them together
Tie them together

And when we spoke there was silence
Cos there's no need to make a sound when you've got
Smiles instead
Smiles instead
Smiles instead

Go to dungeness
Let's go to dungeness
Let's go to dungeness
Let's go to dungeness

No tall latte in a rusty shed
Just shots of light and broken bike to stimulate your busy head
In dungeness
In dungeness
Try dungeness

Le Casio lyrics - athlete

Give it up another time never meant to overstep the line
Skip across to mexico to get away from all you know
Give it up another time never meant to overstep the line
Skip across to mexico to get away from all you know

Give it up another time never meant to overstep the line
Skip across to mexico to get away from all you know
