it's just degrees of existence
whatever you're in for
whatever the preference
why you looking at me for ?
i don't know the answer
i dunno know the answer
it's probably different
it's just degrees of existence
don't let anybody else come in and change your mind
don't let anybody change your mind
despite all the critics
whatever you're after
whatever the moment
sourer or sweeter, shallow or deeper, harder or faster
whatever the instant
you've gotta run with it
it's just degrees of existence
don't let anybody else come in and change your mind
don't let anybody change your mind
one man's coal is another man's gold
you see beauty in curious holds
you're carrying on, where, i don't know
but you've gotta roam where you've gotta roam
and we'll agree on the difference
we can ever after
so send me a letter from somewhere amazing
that's not so amazing
that you swear is better
i'll figure an answer
we'll agree on the difference
it's just degrees of existence
don't let anybody else come in and change your mind
don't let anybody change your mind

Nowhere I Want
03:43
|

|
i've been hearing all kinds of history
got scared by ghosts in the corner
yeah i'm sure they have their stories
but they can stop before they start
what i don't know can't concern me
safe in a state of suspension
and i know where i wanna be told and i know where i don't x2
and i might have heard a rumour
but i didn't let it get too far
i've been turning down information
facts that are best left a mystery
cos i know where i wanna be told and i know where i don't
i know where i wanna be told and i know where i don't

Comfortable
03:43
|
|||
|
you look so comfortable
like a chair for sitting in
or a bed for lying on
where i can rest my head
feeling sure and confident
and away from emptiness
if there's room available
if you ever invite me in
you look so comfortable
like the arms of tenderness
like the arms of tenderness
a state worth being in
in an age of weariness
you look so comfortable
you look so comfortable

built you up
with a slip of the tongue
and there you were
you had to come
but you can't cut through
saw you out
'til you were done
drowned you out
'til i went numb
drowned you out -
dumb
you can't cut through
and i'm ready now
more than i ever was
what's that far off sound ?
i cannot tell
i cannot tell
you can't cut through

Dark Night of Yourself
05:26
|
|||
|
i was knocking on your door while you were shouting out the chorus
saying they better get it better
yeah you sure put 'em in their place
and waking every morning to relive yet another night of horror
and all the bits of shrapnel that came flying from your face...
who's gonna be left, who's gonna wanna take you by the hand and help you get through
the dark night of yourself
who's gonna be left, who's gonna wanna hang around and help guide you through
the dark night of yourself
looks like they've let one of them out
looks like they've let one of them out
the dark night of yourself
all the crashing, all the banging, just means people cease to hear you
it's just crashing, it's just bashing, you just become this bunch of noise
a ruckus in the playroom who bust nearly all that is about him
some trouble in the playroom
yeah i guess you're just a natural naughty boy
who's gonna be left, who's gonna wanna take you by the hand and help you get through
the dark night of yourself
who's gonna be left, who's gonna wanna hang around and help guide you through
the dark night of yourself
the dark night of yourself

we came as a favour
to pick up the blind
to look like the healer
to put them in line
and pure's our vision
it's plain black and white
the heathen will see when
we shed them the light
bless
they mean no wrong
bless them
they mean no harm
we go to those places
that they've not got quite right
point where the mistake is
put our sun in their sky
bless
they mean no wrong
bless them
they mean no harm
and let them hope that tommorrow
can live up to the hype
let them hope all they like
bless
they mean no wrong
bless them
they mean no harm
bless

Analogue Real To Real
04:05
|
|||
|
we got lost for a little bit
crossed our wires
had brand new ways of running counterfeits
of the way you are
how you feel
analogue
real to real
solid state
face to face
i'm feeling that
we got put on a little chip
forgot about what always is
the future days have got a skip in them
going one step forwards, two back
from the way you are
how you feel
analogue
real to real
solid state
face to face
i'm feeling that
and all that static is meaningless
fuzz online
it's just pie in the sky
ain't saying anything
like the way you are
how you feel
analogue
real to real
solid state
goodness sake ! - i'm feeling that
analogue
real to real...
the way you are
the way you are
the way you are
the way you are
the way you.......are.

Too Far Gone To Care
02:57
|
|||
|
and you're too far gone to care
your shoes hardly have hit the ground
been connecting all the sets
getting all that you can get
yeah you've really put the hammer down
best you keep moving
if you stop then it just makes an empty sound
if you're set to straight ahead
you don't have to turn around
yeah you're too far gone for that
you're too far gone to...
do you really find it so easy ?
does it all just fall all about you ?
do you wander through without seeing ?
or in a quiet moment do you know ?
all the questions you can only ask yourself
you know alone
when the earth stops moving
and it's orbit of you has slown down
when the wheel stops turning
you'll be too far gone to care
too far gone to care
and you wouldn't wanna turn around

What Would I Do..
03:34
|

|
what would i do without you to look over me ?
where would i be without you to look over me ?
where would i go
but right out of control ?
i don't know
where i would be without you to look over me
i'd be flailing
i'd be misshapen
i'd be falling out of line
i'd be mistaken..
and if the storms should still appear
like how you warned
like you said
and prophesised
imagined
into being..
what would i do without you to look over me ?
where would i be without you to look over me ?
where would i go
but right out of control ?
i don't know
where i would be without you to look over me

I regularly walk around Las Vegas listening to this and when I have downtime at work have also been reading about The Dead People (Shayne has) Known. He has come such a long way and grown so immensely over his long career. I'm really enjoying this album a lot. It has a a lot of feeling and soul to it. Even the photo on the cover has a homey sort of feel to it. Well done.

I've been enjoying the Bats since Daddy's Highway. They keep doing what they do and I keep enjoying what they do. What else can I say? Bat's entertainment?
