Can we carry on this tug of war
If you won’t stop letting go of the rope
It slips to the ground and I stumble and fall
Swallowing dirt as I roll down the slope
I try to stand with the rope at my feet
You mock me as I lose my balance again
Maybe I should accept my defeat
Coming back for more I must be insane
We fought too hard to make it work
Too hard to let it go
But you won’t tell me what you need
And I'm losing all control
Now it seems the more I give
The more you pull away
And every promise we make we break
And I’m running out of words to say
Still we play this game of make-believe
Tell the lies to each other’s eyes
But it’s time we realised
We’re too compromised
Feel the tension reaching breaking point
Suspended in equilibrium
There’s no weakness left to exploit
The fantasy becomes delirium
We fought too hard to make it work
Too hard to let it go
But you won’t tell me what you need
And I'm losing all control
Now it seems the more I give
The more you pull away
And every promise we make we break
And I’m running out of words to say
Still we play this game of make-believe
Tell the lies to each other’s eyes
But it’s time we realised
We’re still compromised
We fought so hard to make it work
But I've got to let you go
Cos you can't tell me what you need
So I'm taking back control
I've got nothing left to give
And I need to walk away
Our last promise was make or break
And there's really nothing left to say
I won't play this game of make believe
No more lies to each other's eyes
Cos it's time we realised
We're too compromised
We’re too compromised
We’re too compromised
And it’s time we realised
We’re too compromised

I've woken up to ice and snow
Think I'll have a coffee before I go
Try to think things through
I'm all used up
But, hey, that's nothing new
I'll keep coming back
Coming back for more
I'll keep coming back
Coming back for more
I was there when you needed a friend
You don't need me now
So please don't pretend
Your eyes like a stranger
Deep pools without end
In which I keep falling
Down, down, down
Eyes like a stranger
Deep pools without end
In which I keep falling
In which I keep falling
In which I keep falling
Down, down, down
Try to escape, try to break free
The weight of my hope is pressing down on me
I'm a prisoner of reason, of empathy
As God is my witness
I have enough rope
Enough rope
To take me down
To take me down
To take me down
Take me down
I was there when you needed a friend
You don't need me now
So please don't pretend
Your eyes like a stranger
Deep pools without end
In which I keep falling
Down, down, down
Eyes like a stranger
Deep pools without end
In which I keep falling
In which I keep falling
In which I keep falling
Down, down, down
Take me down
I keep falling down
Deeper and deeper
Rescue me
Oh rescue me

A Game Of Whispers

I used to count on you
While you were keeping score
A simple game of numbers
All my indiscretions accounted for
Every moment made to measure
One by one we weigh the cost
Tip the scales in your favour
Sense of balance is all but lost
Believe what you want to believe
But I’m not your enemy
There’s no turning back for us
The lines have long been crossed
You turned the world against me
That’s not the real me
Your words stick to me like shadows
Sneaking by my side (Shadows by your side)
Twisted replicas of me
Misconstrued by your design (Fiction blurs the lines)
In this game of whispers
No one wins if no one lies
I’m reaching out to you
Across the battleground
Can we negotiate a truce
In this war of words and sound
What you see is what you get
So what do you think it is you see?
Distractions making demons
Where the angels used to be
You think you’ve knocked me from my cloud
But I let you keep me down
Looking through a single eye
Won’t change what you perceive
I’m not trying to deceive
That’s not the real me
Your words stick to me like shadows
Sneaking by my side (Shadows by your side)
Twisted replicas of me
Misconstrued by your design (Fiction blurs the lines)
In this game of whispers
No one wins if no one lies
Breakdown in communication
Deceit becomes an addiction
Breakdown in communication
Deceit becomes an addiction
Your words stick to me like shadows
Sneaking by my side (Shadows by your side)
Twisted replicas of me
Misconstrued by your design (Fiction blurs the lines)
In this game of whispers
No one wins if no one lies
They stick to me like shadows
Twisted replicas of me
In this game of whispers
No one wins if no one lies
