• Titre : Storm And Stress
• Album : Little Thoughts EP
• Année : 2004

Paroles :

Promise you'll say if it gets
Promise you'll say if it gets too much
Don't be so scared of corners
Don't be so tired of this life

You drink to laugh
You drink to cry
You wear me in
You wear me

You really suffer for it
You really suffer for your art
Don't be a martyr for it
Don't be a martyr for the cause
Your eyes tell it
Your eyes tell the truth

You drink to laugh
You drink to cry
You wear me in
You wear me

You're not always
You're not always right

A new fight for a last rite
A new fight for a last rite
You can fight a new fight
You can fight it's alright

You're the life of the party
You make my world spin around

The first time is the next time
This time is the last time
And this time is the last time
Cos this time I will fight

You're not always right

• Titre : Banquet
• Album : Silent Alarm
• Année : 2005

Paroles :

A heart of stone, a smoking gun
I can give you life, I can take it away
A heart of stone, a smoking gun
I'm working it out
Why'd you feel so underrated?
Why'd you feel so negated?
Turning away from the light
Becoming adult
Turning into my soul
I wanted to bite not destroy
To feel her underneath
Turning into my soul
She don't think straight
She's got such a dirty mind and it never ever stops
And you don't taste like her and you never ever will
And we don't read the papers, we don't read the news
Heaven's never enough, we will never be fooled
And if you feel a little left behind
I will see you on the other side
Cos I'm on fire
I'm on fire when you come
I'm on fire so stub me out

• Titre : Talons
• Album : Talons
• Année : 2008

Paroles :

And in the dark, it comes for me
Malevolent and without thought
Uprooting trees, destroying cars
Cold and relentless with arms outstretched

No boat nor brick
nor crucifix can hold it back
I have been wicked
I have been arrogant

And when it comes it will feel like a kiss
Silent about it
And when it comes it will feel like a kiss
And I cannot say that I was not warned or was misled
When it comes it will feel like a kiss

Awaken from dreams of drunken car crashes
You saddened my friends and claimed all my lovers
I try to stay still so it will not see me
Its talons rake the side of my face
I want you to be calm
You're such a slut

And when it comes it will feel like a kiss
Silent about it
And when it comes it will feel like a kiss
And I cannot say that I was not warned or was misled
When it comes it will feel like a kiss

And I didn't think I'd catch fire when I held my hand to the flame
And I didn't think it would catch up as fast as I could have run
Fate came a-knocking when I was looking the other way
A new disease came in the post for me today

And when it comes it will feel like a kiss
And when it comes it will feel like a kiss
And when it comes
(And when it comes)
And when it comes
(And when it comes)
And when it comes
(and when it comes)
And when it comes
It will feel like a kiss.

• Titre : Letter To My Son
• Album : Intimacy
• Année : 2008

Paroles :

I found myself at the point where we kissed first
On a rooftop overlooking the East London mosque

They said, they said, they said, they said
"You can't go around breaking young girl's hearts"
I say, I say, I say, I say
Keep it casual, easy ...

And you looked so right in that red dress

Oh how I'd love to be a rock for you
To be anything you could rely on

So I'll try, I'll try, I'll try, I'll try
But I'll get caught out
So we'll try, we'll try, we'll try, we'll try
But we forget the lines, forget the lines

And you looked so ... in the back of the car
Like you could start a hundred wars

See what trouble we could both cause
By the bedroom door, the kitchen floor
I tried, I tried, I tried
...
To be the father to a son
I tried, I tried, I tried

Forgive me ...
