It's All on Us

This one's too late for all we'd been planning out
'Cause people keep talking, they're not listening now
And we know what you're saying
People been talking, and they been talking loud
People keep moving, don't even bat an eye
This way of thinking is leaving my mouth dry
'Cause they don't know what they're seeing, they're blind
People are still talking oooh
I think there's something that we need to say
To stop this prejudice, it's causing us pain
Oh I think there's something that we need to say
To stop this prejudice, it's causing us pain
Or it's all on us
It's all on us
I go to the movies, I'm heading downtown
And all I'm overhearing is just putting me down
'Cause they don't know what they're saying, no no no, they're blind
Oh people keep talking
I think there's something that we need to say
To stop this prejudice, it's causing us pain
Oh I think there's something that we need to say
To stop this prejudice, it's causing us pain
Oh I think there's something
I said I think there is something that we need to say
Oh I think there's something
I said I think there is something that we need to say
(Right, are you guys up for doing a bit of a sing-a-long?
It's real easy, just goes like this)
It's all on us, it's all on us
It's all on us, it's all on us
(Lovely, keep that going)
It's all on us, it's all on us
Think there is something we need to say
It's all on us, it's all on us
To stop this prejudice, it's causing us pain
It's all on us, it's all on us
Oh I think there's something that we need to say
To stop this prejudice
Oh I think there's something that we need to say
It's all on us, it's all on us
To stop this prejudice, it's causing us pain
It's all on us, it's all on us
Nobody should be treated this way
It's all on us, it's all on us
So pull together, we can stop it today
It's all on us, it's all on us

Dreaming Awake
04:31

You'll go your own way
Just to find your way back home
You say you don't care
You'll die before you're old
But you won't go
And throw it all away
We're young, I know
But that's just today
We would go down, down, down
These trips are lonely
When no one's around, round, round
But we're only dreaming
We're only dreaming
Bought that new tab yesterday
They're telling me it's a price
That another has to pay
But I won't believe their lies
'Cause it's you I find
Dreaming awake tonight
But who am I
To go before my time
We're still coming down, down, down
These trips are lonely
When no one's around, round, round
But we're only dreaming
Ah ooh, we're only dreaming
Ah ooh, we're only dreaming
Well we spend most of our time
Finding ways to save time
Well we spend most of our time
Finding ways to save time
Well we spend most of our time
Finding ways to save time
Well we spend most of our time
Trying to find ways to save time
We're still coming down, down, down
These trips are lonely
No one's around, round, round
But we're only dreaming
Still coming down, down, down
These trips are lonely
No one's around
But we're only dreaming
Ah ooh, we're only dreaming
Ah ooh, we're only dreaming
-------------------------------------
We're only dreaming
But it hurts just the same
You know we're only dreaming
We're only dreaming
But it hurts just the same
You know we're only dreaming

Me+She

You were sweet and so pretty
A girl of the city
But you're sweetness wasted on me
You've gone off with the guy
That I've known since I was five
Knowing he'll treat you better than me
Only now that you're gone
And I sleep all alone
That guy, it should've been me
Darling, if you only wrote to me
Said something that's new to me
I like when you don't straighten your hair
Now this only poetry
I hang on to what could've been
I know that you don't even care
So go back to him
And leave me adrift
But think back to when we were there
I was far too blind to see what I lost

Alive

Five long days in the blistering sun
Left me out of love, I was caving in
But it's all good
It's all good
The nights were short, and the air was thin
Only comfort found in the paper tin
It's all good
It's all good
'Cause I got you to come back to
And in this peace I find
It makes me, makes me realise
I don't wanna die
As I feel the heat coming off my skin, I'm alive
But even a corpse stays warm for minutes
after its time
And now I see in me, in me
A strength, that I never thought I'd find
No, I don't wanna die
See the longing in your eyes
Sayin' I don't wanna die
