Another Way 04:17
ANOTHER WAY - VINCENT TUCKWOOD You could say "we’re out of options" You could say "we’re losing track" You could say "we’ve gone too far now" You could say "there’s no way back" But I won’t let you down No I won’t let you down This time You could say "I hardly know you" You could say "how can I trust You could say "you’ve got an angle" you could say "you’ll cut and run" But I won’t let you down No I won’t let you down There’s another way to square the circle to be more than they think we are There’s another way to stand together choose love and laugh in their face You could say "I fear the first step" You could say "and I fear the next" You could say "I fear the critics" You could say "and I fear the rest" But you won't let me down No you won't let me down There’s another way to square the circle to be more than they think we are There’s another way to stand together choose love and laugh in their face

CRUELLEST KINDNESS - VINCENT TUCKWOOD There’s a voice I heard somewhere along the way There's a place I’ve been where a thousand birds swooped and played There's a piece of me circling the moon and flying among the stars But when I come back down there’s a thousand scars where I cut myself I take it out on myself I turn myself inside and out For cruellest kindness For pieces of love wrapped in temporary blindness For cruellest kindness wrapped in temporary blindness And when I circle the moon and fly around the stars You steal the sun to pull me back to earth And still I try to ascend to fly among the birds You call me back to let me know I yearn for cruelest kindness

Oo-Whee 03:47
OO-WHEE - VINCENT TUCKWOOD You ask one thing just one thing that you need It is more than I am able You count to 10 and then ask me again It is more than I am able I jumped through your hoops been what I was not too It has all been at your bidding Ask for one thing just one thing I have left Well I'm sorry it's not an offer Oo-whee, it's not just 123 Is it what you want from me 'cause I am on my knees Oo-whee, what you want from me Can't you even see that I'm on my knees Today

Up 4 Air 03:31
UP 4 AIR - VINCENT TUCKWOOD I get to you when I talk too loud and put you down You'd rather be alone in crowds I point you out Reach out for me it's dark and cold down here Reach out for me just help me to come near You look for me and I'm not there I'm out your hair You say I'm blank, I keep it in behind this grin But that doesn't mean I'm playing hide and seek I'm not playing games or giving you a tweak Give me time my friend 'cause I'm coming up for air Give me time my friend just don't say your unaware Give me time There is time and I want you to be there Give me time my friend 'cause me I'm coming up for air

Travelling 03:03
TRAVELLING - VINCENT TUCKWOOD You can move so fast you stop traveling A bullet that's gone blind from the barrelling You’re racing time With your feet on fire it's all you know that asphalt melts you burn the road for people who are following you Just start traveling and take the time to lean the curve and hear the rhymes of people when they’re talking to you You can miss the point with the slightest push You can try to lose with your winning touch When your time is up It could end in a minute and you won't know it's gone It could end in the minute with all you have not done
6.
Just Love 02:33
JUST LOVE - VINCENT TUCKWOOD Let your knees shake Let your heart break Let it break Let your blood flow When it wants to Let it flow Let yourself go Down the wormhole Down you go Yes, you’ll know When it hits you When it hits It's love Just love Just love All it takes is one step then the next To the beat of the rhythm in your chest
7.
ROUGH DIAMONDS - VINCENT TUCKWOOD You are you and I am me And we could break so easily When they’re kicking us in shape And we can stand and take Their taunts and fears and crap complaints They can't stop us It's their weakness You know what's strange I'm half-and-half I forgotten how to laugh At the same time I feel 10 feet tall 6 feet wide I have got a smile inside They can’t stop us We are rising We could bend until we break We could fall to our knees Take all that we can take We are stronger than we think But when they get in your head It's tantamount to rape They looked for blame and they found us Though they cut and they run They will find they have not won They won't believe what they have done When you pull them from the earth Rough diamonds Catch the sun See the sun and the moon You’re catching them in your eyes

SHE SAYS SHE'S - VINCENT TUCKWOOD She says she's going down Says that she can take no more She says she sees the writing When she's face down on the floor She says that when he hurts her It's not just his fists that hit She says she's feeling lonely She says she's getting used to it She says he's got his rules She says he tells her right from wrong She says he demands quiet She says she's silencing her song She turns away before the tears can fall She looks away then I hear her whisper That through it all She says she wants to heal him She says she wants to heal him She thinks that she can heal him Well I'm not sure She says she’s going down Says she's nothing left to give She says he'll keep on taking She says this rape it knows no end She turns away before the tears can fall She walks away back to him And i’m not sure

Egg Flip 02:44
EGG FLIP - VINCENT TUCKWOOD I've seen you walking around Yes, and i’ve Seen you hanging round some other guy Tell me, what's your excuse? 'cause when it comes between me and him You've got to choose We seemed to have the best thing Yes, and we Should have spent the rest of our lives together Now you're cutting me loose When it comes between me and him You've got to choose Did you think it was easy Trading me in? All I know is you’ve got to see the truth It's me or him It's me or him

50 Reasons 04:13
50 REASONS - VINCENT TUCKWOOD If you told me you're lonely And who's to say you’re not? Who's to say I want anything of what you haven't got? You give me 50 reasons for who you choose to be 50 reasons that sound the same "it’s you, not me" If you asked me to save you And who's to say I could? Your saviour’s there in the mirror stare Just take a look Your 50 reasons haunt you They make you twice your age They make you cry and just whine again While you stay the same If you told me I'm hurting And who's to say I'm not? Who's to say I want anything of what you've got? I am waiting for you to come clean and come true I'm waiting for you to come true I am waiting
