He’s Allerton-esque and you’re out of your comfort zone this train’s being held at the platform I’m prone orange noise on the board beneath remnant of Soho I’m a beacon of light and they suck all the air from the room he crumples up you would freak if you knew but out of love I’ll cover up gently... Just hold it together, boy Hold it together, boy Try to hold it together, boy Can you hold it together, boy? Vermillion skies reflect earth brown eyes flash fear take him back to your flat to hold hands until the bruise appears I could handle a piece of that but we were nowhere near embracing the past so long ago that parental advice what did they know how to pinpoint the instant that showed the horror before me... Just hold it together, boy Hold it together, boy Try to hold it together, boy Can you hold it together, boy? Hold on because a pin-prick could burst this imaginary of mine Your fantasies may vary but This whole thing’s getting way too much And time’s running out Our time’s running out The cuts were deep, I know We spilled our lives on rock’n’roll And time’s running out Our time’s running out We’re tumbling together Like Hellbent & Leather Surrounded by ghosts in the edit suite Don’t freeze frame, hell no Your life goes straight to video And time’s running out Our time’s running out Your fantasies may vary but This whole thing’s getting way too much And time’s running out Our time’s running out The cuts were deep, I know We spilled our lives on rock’n’roll And time’s running out Our time’s running out We’re crashing together Scars gouged out of leather Surrounded by stars of the blogosphere Don’t freeze frame, hell no Your life goes straight to video Time’s running out Hold on cos we’ve got ten hits to nail this Before you press rewind

The streetlights on standby Watchful and hissing and I… Imagine that they’ll flicker out around me No light in the hallway Left on the latch – I always… Knew this was gonna be a dark place The darkest yet, but… I wanna stay right here forever Please let us stay right there forever But we came apart on Marlborough Road Repeatedly I fell apart on Marlborough Road Plus one makes three now You don’t know what you lack Till it’s present… correct Keep smiling, no frowning Your looks could shoot the aeroplane down in… One second’s lapse of concentration But this smile is distorting Mix Glen’s – 11 in the morning I think perhaps I’ve reached the stage where The wind will change and… I will be stuck like this forever We could’ve been stuck like that forever But we came apart on Marlborough Road Repeatedly I fell apart on Marlborough Road A simple operation goes awry The King is Dead – I saw it in his eyes When all the money comes to nothing Baby, it’s a sin After the fire comes the flood The ceiling’s caving in So let it burn Let slip the dogs Bring hail and fog The ground will open up Let it burn Let all the dead inside my head Rise up and roam the earth Cos it’s time…
