Turin Brakes Album

Oh let the sun be done
Let the air wash the city clean
Oh let the blue hour come,
For everyone...pace of this place slow down,
suits throw your phones to the ground,
with the blue in your lungs begun,
For everyone, for everyone the sun
We all need some...
Time to go fishing, Reels screaming
For all weary souls, The endless song for everyone,

If I was a farmer
instead of a faker
If I was realer
and not just some raker
Raking through a memory
that doesn't belong to me
Just someone I could have been
if I only kept walking...
Have another drink my son
Enjoy another cigarette
Cos it's time you realised...
you're just an average man
Alone on a motorway
you catch your breath
Cat's eyes lead everyway
to lonesomeness
Then you learn to hide your fears
and downsize your dreams
Still alive, still sincere
inside the scheme...
If this is darkness here
if this is darkness...coming

Well if this gets ugly,
I'd swear,
This ain't our last chance,
The vultures that circle,
My head,
Are flying alongside,
The world's turning.

I let somebody get under my skin,
Long distance losing is all that I've seen,
Now there's a river,
Now there's a river.

Nothing can save me,
My reserve betrayed me,
It calmed the hurricanes,
I'm burning to get there,
The middle of nowhere,
Storm warnings flicker while,
The world's turning,

I let somebody get under my skin,
Long distance losing is all that I've seen,
Now there's a river,
Now there's a river.

I let somebody get under my skin,
Long distance losing is all that I've seen,
Now there's a river,
Now there's a river.

Breathe in good, breathe out bad
Remind yourself of the things you have, it's easy
Pull a smile onto your face
Understand that making friends is easy
Tell yourself you will be OK
Remind yourself that you're not just in it for the money.
Oh the end, the end, the end
The end, the end
My friend, where's the end?
You're up you're down
You're in the ground in the end my friend
Where's the end?
I've found myself, deep down in the dirt
Got to get myself to my feet yeah
I tell myself it will be OK

You move so sweet
There's enough to write a book about it
When you speak
It takes a while for the words to settle down
They carry on into the next town
Stick through sand drag your name
Drag your name you're always falling down
Cover your face
Take a seat, you're always falling down
You burn so slow
You burn the way every candle wants to go when you dance
You take the breeze
You take the breeze and spin it right through me
Stick through sand drag your name
Drag your name you're always falling down
Cover your face
Take a seat, you're always falling down
There's some things you can't hide
You never touched the ground
You're always falling down
You have to see we're on your side

I'm the stone you've just thrown into the ocean
How many stones have you thrown?
Turin Brown, I'm going down for the very first time.
Now where's the truth in this?
I dared to dream but you were more violent than the worst hurricane.
Oh take me sailing again
Oh take me sailing again
You're taking aim,
your fiery flame infects the freedom fighter,
your love was just a fucking game.
So love me like my brother should keep me safe from harm
like nobody could yeah
I see the sorrow, it don't look too good.
Oh take me sailing again
Oh take me sailing again
But here in the ocean
currents drag me deeper down
but I'm the stone that can't be drowned
Oh take me sailing again
Oh take me sailing again
I'm the stone you've just thrown into the ocean

Naked and faking on a poorly lit stairway
Then we were getting down on a dance floor
Oh my love where did you go?
She turned her body and soul into
Air...I need you like air
Water...I need you like water
I've been away for a very long time
The roads and their refuge,
Keep you out of my mind
Arise, arise, I wanna take off and drive
and throw my arms into, the clear blue...
Air...I need you like air
Water...I need you like water
Here she comes, buzzing through my memory.
Here's the ghost, perfume trickles through the...
Air...I need you like air
Water...I need you like water
So try, try to reach me
Even if you can't see me

Batten up the hatches, here comes the cold
I can feel it creeping, it's making me old
You give me so much love that it blows my brains out

You need something better than the bacon and eggs
The creaking in the walls and the banging in the bed
You give me so much love that it blows my brains out

Summer rain,dripping down your face again
Summer rain,praying someone feels the same
Take the pain killer, cycle on your bicycle
Leave all this misery behind

My love giving me head, feeling very guilty,breaking the bread
Losing my attention, taking the world on
So batten up the hatches, here comes the cold
I can feel it creeping, it's making me old
You give me so much love that it blows my brains out

Summer rain,dripping down your face again
Summer rain,praying someone feels the same
Take the pain killer, cycle on your bicycle
Leave all this misery behind

My love, my love, my love, my love oh my love

Summer rain,dripping down your face again
Summer rain,praying someone feels the same
Take the pain killer, cycle on your bicycle
Leave all this misery behind

Summer rain,dripping down your face again
Summer rain,praying someone feels the same
Take the pain killer, cycle on your bicycle
Leave all this misery behind
Leave all this misery behind
Leave all this misery behind
Leave all this misery behind.

I'm gonna get me a bone today
under this big blue sky.
Under the tree where my last love laid,
now where beneath the leaves she lies,
I'm gonna dig a deep hole,
crack open this bone,
see where all the wonder went,
see where now it's all gone...
Look at the light, it's full of stars,
what's really happening?
Something wonderful,
it's not as bad as I was told,
to lose all that was loved,
it's the demons who drag you down,
but the angels pull you up...
Don't let the colours bring you down,
they'll get much brighter one day
you know all things must come around
if you leave them in their sway,
I'm gonna save it all in these photographs,
Keep something here for me,
When I'm dead and gone I'll laugh last,

Paint your panic attack
Lonely inside a lift
The smallest thing could strip to your skin
Feel your lonely skies
When times are hard, wave bye bye
Bye, bye, baby burning eyes of demise
Paint your lonely skies
Burning eyes, wave bye, bye, to your skin
You to your skin, baby bye
The smallest thing inside a lift
To your skin baby, times are hard
Paint your eyes, paint your panic back to demise
Strip your panic attack
Lonely eyes baby, burn to your skin
Inside a lift to your skies
Strip your panic attack
Lonely eyes baby, burn to your skin

Relax, relax, relax...my little brother
All that you'd been through...a lifetime
So cling on, cling on, cling on to me my little brother
And we'll laugh at the grand scheme of things...
Burned yourself down to the ground
You picked me out of from a crowd
You're losing it, I couldn't tell
'Till you hung yourself.
You hurt yourself, you burned the bridge
Mole-hills turned to mountains in your way
I've been there, in solitude
but I could never save you that day
You got lost in the grand scheme of things.
Burned yourself down to the ground
You picked me out of from a crowd
You're losing it, I couldn't tell
'Till you hung yourself.
But you are keeping me breathing
Your voice is keeping me moving.
There was a way out of this mess
Plenty of time, find a new place
Catch you some sunshine for your face
We were running on...empty

Opened my eyes, had a dream last night
that both my arms were broken,
evening time, help now or hold me down,
I feel my world is tumbling, spiralling down,
oh my love I can't let go,
something's wrong I can't let go
nature's cruel, she's laughing,
as I feel my way through the century,
as I slowly turn to house dust, tumbling down,
the rain comes down like a victory,
in sheets of shining memory, over and over,
circling around...
oh my love I can't let go,
something's wrong I can't let go
nature's cruel, she's laughing,
almost too much for my heart,
when it rains, oh tears my soul apart,
when it rains, almost too much for my heart,
in a dream, oh tears my soul apart,
the rain clouds move so slowly,

In the ether, in the ether's air
Would you be there? Would you be my friend?
In the morning, in the morning rain
In the binary of a data stream

On an airplane
On a radio
All around me
In the ether's flow

Under an orange sun
Running from what I've become oh...
What am I running from

You can't take a photograph of it at night
It lives in the code of a firefly buzzing
It vibrates through brickwalls, keeping their time
It cuddles the creeping chaos coming
I see it more clearly than ever before
I'm in it's invisible river aflowing
Through everything I've ever been through before
Heads up, something's really happening
