Concrete 02:56
‘Concrete’ Verse 1 Life in the city flashes by Too quickly to turn around Blurring into shapeless light Devoid of sight and sound And I find myself standing at the edge Abyss stares back at me Black, as black as black can be Bridge London never sleeps Chorus Underneath the stars We drift along the streets to clubs and bars Clubs and bars Clubs and bars Verse 2 Morning sounds the starting gun Ringing on my phone Trains full of everyone Dreaming they were home And I find myself standing at the edge Abyss stares back at me Black, as black as black can be Bridge Teenage dreams wash away on bloodstained concrete Chorus Underneath the stars We drift along the streets to clubs and bars Clubs and bars Clubs and bars BREAK Chorus Underneath the stars We drift along the streets to clubs and bars Clubs and bars Clubs and bars London never sleeps Teenage dreams wash away on bloodstained concrete Underneath the stars We drift along the streets to clubs and bars

‘Bring the Harlots’ Up-lighters lit The Ritz A monument to past excess Streets bustle with restless life The offices close for Friday night These buildings home to captured dreams Are fit to bursting at the seams London the city that I love The only one I ever trust A million blinking lights Bring the harlots out to fight For my attention A little sensation And to feel alive Agitated and alone Taxis take the people home Waiting in the cold dawn light A sea of grey sweeps either side These buildings home to captured dreams Are fit to bursting at the seams London the city that I love The only one I ever trust A million blinking lights Bring the harlots out to fight For my attention A little sensation And to feel alive

‘Changing Lanes’ Verse 1 Walking round the same town The faces they remind me of the same crowd I left behind but somehow it all seems, to never change Standing at the door Down the street of someone I aint seen since long ago A street that holds my naïve dreams did I Bridge Lose myself Caught up in city games Who got left behind When we became estranged Chorus So lets walk the walk we walked when we were young Before we lived life in the shade Coz those times meant far too much Verse 2 So we go out With one eye on the past drinking from first till last Remember times we’d shake it up now we Try and do it all again But it’s not the same A bitter sweet feeling rushes across my brain Sometimes you just can’t bring them back now Bridge Scars are a memory Of nights we ran ablaze Lives on the same track But now I’m changing lanes Chorus So lets walk the walk we walked when we were young Before we lived life in the shade Got a feeling that we’ve grown too much Now I want something more I want something more Bridge Did I sell out from what I wanted to be Have a lost sight of the tings I wanted to see Have I moved on or am I just trapped beneath Is this just how things are meant to be Chorus So lets walk the walk we walked when we were young Before we lived life in the shade Got a feeling that we’ve grown too much Now I want something more I want something more I want something more

Justify 04:38
‘Justify’ Sand slipping through my hands I’m lost in isolation Lonely desolate Far from my salvation My innocence was lost Compassion undermined As senseless retribution Marked our loves decline Why should I justify myself to you? When I’ve nothing Nothing left to prove My shadow cast for the last time Locked in resolution A course pre-determined And set for a solution I don’t know where I am Or where I’m going to Existential feelings Linger after you Why should I justify myself to you? When I’ve nothing Nothing left to prove And just one call One call from you Could end it all I never thought this love Would lead to our downfall
5.
'Atomic Heaven' Verse 1 See the bullets flashing by Watch them rip holes in the sky What chance for us to make a pact? But too much to destroy, let’s conquer land Bridge It’s atomic Heaven Atomic Heaven Verse 2 Enough to make a grown man cry As my faith in you begins to slide Like a movie scene that hits your heart As the final curtain falls their souls depart Bridge Someone throw me a lifeline Or will I see in my Lifetime Atomic Heaven Chorus Atomic Heaven Atomic Heaven Verse 3 Package fighter flights to foreign sands Can’t wash the blood immersing your hardened hands And all the guilt we’re feeling for A young boys dreams destroyed, you’ll pay them off Bridge Can’t you see past the story? There won’t be no tales of glory It’s Atomic Heaven Chorus Atomic Heaven Atomic Heaven SOLO Chorus Atomic Heaven Atomic Heaven Yeah it’s Atomic Heaven Oh Yeah it’s Atomic Heaven
6.
'Right and Wrong' Verse 1 Calling out, for somebody to clear my mind But no-one can judge, what is wrong and what is right Went to my friend, I was shaking on my feet It’s time to wake, be the man I’ve got to be Chorus You gotta know that I’m gonna stay Coz I know that this life is for real Verse 2 When things went wrong, always looked for a place to hide Now times have changed, got to seek what I’ve been needing to find Chorus You gotta know that I’m gonna stay Coz I know that this life is for real Middle 8 I don’t wanna wait This time I can’t fake Every feeling on my face is mine Opened my eyes to what’s between you and I SOLO Chorus You gotta know that I’m gonna stay Coz I know that this life is for real
