I stand alone waiting on the train
last carriage on the Edinburgh line
underneath the failing light
I catch the stare of her eyes
the train stops bored faces inside
some watch me approach
the woman on the platform side
go back there
go back now
take the blindness from your eyes
and look around
she recognised my face from college
wasted years, wasting time
avoiding our place
just to stand in line
we should've been sitting in a class
(but) we'd head off to calender park
through smoke I could see dreams in her eyes
chorus
and look around!
And look around!
I don't recognise the resignation in your eyes

A801

I looked at the gate
and thought to myself
I could leave this place
and no one would know
the night falls down
I could hear cars race
on the A801
I checked the gate
I turn back around
put the kettle on
looked at the computer
and got my checklist done
I went back outside
into the cold night
for the first time this year
I could see my breath
another winter comes
there are things I should've done
but these can wait
until the summer comes
chorus (what have I become?)

Speechwriter

where the years have become
moments in the heart
I wasn't ready for this
I can't hand it back
I stand in front of the crowd
gathered to hear my words
I must give them hope
where I feel none
I will pretend, I will act
until they wake up and I am past
is it from the heart
or will I stick to the facts
I cannot go back
there is an irony in that
my fragile legacy
dragged down from the right
I spent my whole life
destroyed by the thing I created
their eyes upon me
as I start to speak
I tell them be strong
and carry the weak
I will pretend, I will act
until they wake up and I am past

Fathers Verse

A fathers verse is already sung
From a song about a world that has gone
A fathers verse explains the world to his son
But the world has changed it has changed for everyone
A fathers verse was never written for this
Back into the cold, watching the sky
A fathers verse never thought of this
We pay a price for the mistakes that we bought
A fathers verse is sung by his son
A fathers verse is what he becomes
