Track Lyrics

Junk of the Heart (Happy) Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Junk of the heart is junk in my mind
So hard to leave you all alone
We get so drunk that we can hardly see
What use is that to you or me, baby?
[Pre-Chorus]
See, I notice nothing makes you shatter, no, no
You're a lover of the wild and a joker of the heart
But are you mine?
[Chorus]
I wanna make you happy
I wanna make you feel alive
Let me make you happy
I wanna make you feel alive at night
I wanna make you happy
Are you a good girl through the night?
[Verse 2]
We sink to be sunk, life is no race
When I'm not happy, I'm in disgrace
[Pre-Chorus]
So I spend time a-guessing on you, oh
You're a lover of the wild and a joker of the heart
But are you mine?
[Chorus]
I wanna make you happy
I wanna make you feel alive
Let me make you happy
I wanna make you feel alive at night
I wanna make you happy
Are you a good girl through the night?
Yeah
[Pre-Chorus]
Still I notice nothing makes you shatter no, no
You're a lover of the wild and a joker of the heart
But are you mine?
[Chorus]
I wanna make you happy
I wanna make you feel alive
Let me make you happy
I wanna make you feel alive at night
I wanna make you happy
Are you a good girl through the night?

Rosie Lyrics

[Verse 1]
See the same old crowd again
Wash my hands and shake my feet
And yes, I missed you all
Since I last saw you, I fell down the rabbit hole
As I wonder what we'd be like
Wrapped up, so up tight with you
Lust will do funny things
I don't want you to go out looking so good
And you look so good
[Chorus]
Rosie
Well, I feel your love and I want you to agree
To be
Still take your time but get to me
Rosie
[Verse 2]
She looked away as I mentioned my name
The street lights light up my shame
The world can take you and swallow you whole
But you're a big girl and I think that you already know
You've been bought and sold
Be careful with me
I see all that you see
And Troy died in a day for little Rosie
[Chorus]
Rosie
Well, I feel your love and I want you to agree
To be
Still take your time, roll your stone to me
Rosie, oh
[Outro]
Gonna find you now, I'll walk the beat
And you'll do me a pirouette in the street
And although we'll fall, we'll find our feet
Rosie, oh
Well, I wanted you so easily
Illusions past and now I see
An image is so different to reality
Rosie
Yeah, Ro-Rosie, oh

Taking Pictures of You Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I have a secret I want to tell you
Each time that I close my eyes, I can feel you
I run away with my imagination
And I am blinded by your light, you fill up the room
Oh-oh-oh, oh
[Verse 2]
I have a secret I need to tell you
Exquisite visions fill up my mind
[Chorus]
Do you remember me taking pictures of you
As the light came through?
You were running away
And I asked you for a place to stay
Do you remember me taking pictures of you?
Taking pictures of you
[Verse 3]
Now, I have a secret I need to tell you
I have been true and I needed no clue
We live in such extraordinary times
Exquisite visions fill up my mind
[Chorus]
Do you remember me taking pictures of you
As the light came through?
You were running away
And you asked me for a place to stay
Do you remember me taking pictures of you?
Such a wonderful thing to do

Fuck the World Off Lyrics

[Intro]
Yeah
[Verse 1]
And all I wanna do is get to you
Get to you, get to you
Let me fuck the world off just for you
Let me do that for you
[Verse 2]
And watch me tow the line back home
Get back home, just for you
I think I heard someone on London streets
People to meet, people like you
[Chorus]
And there will be waterfalls
For you to break through
If you so choose
I know you think too much to lose
[Verse 3]
So let me fuck the world off just for you
Let me do that for you
I know that I could make you so pleased
Pleased to be, to be with me
[Verse 4]
I feel like I'm on the end of the line
End of the line, just to get
Someone one London streets to tell
You my thoughts, just to you
[Chorus]
And there will be waterfalls
For you to break through
If you so choose
I know you think too much to lose
[Outro]
So let me fuck the world off just for you
Let me do that for you

Runaway Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Girl, I wanna be good to you
I never wanna do you no harm
I'm caught up in this fascination
Helping with your alarms
Ignore life if you want to, babe
Do what you've got to do
I need some time in the countryside
I wanna feel so brand new
[Chorus]
You make me runaway
You make me runaway
You make me runaway, angel
You make me runaway
Runaway
[Verse 2]
I see your name on the walls again
I painted you on my toes
Celebrate to resuscitate
We drink to ourselves
You collect lovers like gem stones
You talk of them as your friends
Dangle me from your wrist chain
Another one lost to the winds of change
[Chorus]
You make me runaway
You make me runaway
You make me runaway, baby
You make me runaway
Runaway
[Verse 3]
Still I try to be good to you
You'll always be my friend
I need some time to define my mind
I wanna be someone new
[Chorus]
Why don't we runaway?
Why don't we runaway?
Yeah, we can runaway, angel
Yeah, we could runaway
Why don't we runaway?
You make me runaway, baby
I wanna runaway
I wanna runaway

Picture Frame (live acoustic version) Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I didn't notice anything strange
About the picture in your picture frame
It was drawn of a fountain in your Paris
Bought for a fiver most probably
Didn't mean a lot to me, a lot to me
[Pre-Chorus]
You tell me that you'd never sell this
That the artist himself was beneath this
That life itself was within this
And I looked at the sky to worship the ground
[Chorus]
And you never asked for nothing at all
Even as the wolves glowered at your door
And you do your best to fold me and unfold me again
[Verse 2]
Time will make fools of us all
It's time to find meaning or control
Every time we go out now you pretend
Pretend we're not lovers, just friends
And it gets to me, gets to me
[Pre-Chorus]
You tell me the meaning of life is
To be happy and to give up loss
But you've never lost something you loved
But I turn around
How could I be angry at you?
[Chorus]
When you never asked for nothing at all
Even as the wolves glowered at your door
And you do your best to fold me and unfold me again
And unfold me again
Ohh oohhh
[Pre-Chorus]
And it gets to me, gets to me
Tell me the meaning of life is
To be happy and to give up loss
You never lost something you love
And I turn around
How could I be angry with you?
[Chorus]
When you never asked for nothing at all
But you ask me to come in from the cold
And to warm your bed as you fold me and unfold me again
And you never asked for nothing at all
