‘Set It Off’ It’s been a long time coming now And now we’re hear what’s to be done Sick of looking over my shoulder when We turn in circles we’re back at the start Coz I need answers I’ll ask her the questions Sometimes my life seems like a TV scene Feels like history is on repeat Am I too close to her past? When time is what she needs to get by I’ll wait for her answers But when I ask her the questions I hear nothing at all Should I just go by? Pretend everything’s fine (Stand up and fight) Must be another way for sure (Stand up and fight) Like I’m banging my head against the wall (Stand up and fight) I’m not the same guy I was before (Tell me is this what you want) Well man I just don’t know I wait for her answers But when I ask her the questions I hear nothing at all And I just can’t go by Pretend everything’s fine Man I’d rather be gone (I’m gonna set it off)

'When The Lights are Low' A cold night burns outside Burns like my desire God let me rest Shake these feelings from my mind No regrets Wish I could say that was no lie But words unsaid, stuck in my head When I left for the last time I didn’t want to leave I should’ve told you that night I can’t let you slip away Everytime it feels like the end of the line I’m back begging you to stay Seeing shadows when the lights are low But no-one else is in sight Shadows when the lights are low There’s nowhere to hide Oh my pride Left me blind couldn’t see the signs No defence Won’t you save this foolish heart of mine Coz all this time All this time thought I was holding the dice But now the lights are low See these tears I cry I know I did you wrong I should’ve made it all right Oh but now it’s too late Thought I was the one moving on with my life, see this mess of a man today I’m seeing shadows when the lights are low No-one else is in sight Shadows when the lights are low There’s nowhere to hide You know I’ll try and stand strong now girl Though it’s hard to carry on With half a soul Know I got to let you go But at the back of my mind You’re at the back of my mind And when the lights are low you come in from the back of my mind (MUSICAL BREAK OVER BRIDGE CHORDS, NO VOCALS) Now I’m seeing shadows when the lights are low But no-one else is in sight Shadows when the lights are low There’s nowhere to hide

‘Shimmer’ Verse 1 For some crazy reason, This has to be said right now. I can't change these feelings, I've tried but there's no way out. I'll just watch and wait. Verse 2 It hurts so much, Looking out at such a peaceful time. And I think of why, The moon shines so bright in the sky. But for now, I'll just watch and wait. Chorus Can you feel the silence? Alone with my thoughts Golden shimmer’s the light that hits my eyes. Shimmer from the moonlight, Shimmer from the moonlight. Verse 3 Please understand, Decisions have to be made, I've lived my life in the shade, Now I'm just longing to live for real, But for now, I'll just watch and wait. Chorus Can you feel the silence? Alone with my thoughts Golden shimmer’s the light that hits my eyes. Shimmer from the moonlight, Shimmer from the moonlight. Chorus Can you feel the silence? Alone with my thoughts Golden shimmer’s the light that hits my eyes. Shimmer from the moonlight, Shimmer from the moonlight. SOLO Verse 4 Everyone has a perfect compliment. Someone to share this space in time, I won’t rest until I find you. For now, I'll just watch and wait.

'Lay' I can’t get through Some things that’s gone before But to be with you I always want you more Lay your head down Wasted breath Wasted yours and mine I can’t tell you now What I want to say inside Lay yourself down and I forget myself It feels so good each time I touch you there Don’t know if it’s fated for us to reconcile All I know right now is that’s my truth It’s my truth Scared where I’m going to Holding back Haunted each moment think of when I saw you last But as she holds me now Exorcise my past So lay yourself down I fall over myself So beautiful embarrassed by the truth I tell She looks at me her eyes all open wide No mask to disguise what I knows the truth God knows the truth, oh yeah Scared where I’m going to It’s my truth It don’t matter what has gone before What’s here and now is all I want Can’t quite believe I’m here myself Scared watching myself fall Just don’t let me fall into nothing at all So lay yourself down
