Track Name: Safe To Say
It's safe to say
I have no idea what's going on in your head
It's not as if it matters now,
because it's not going anywhere
Your words are locked, out of sight
Somewhere dark, water tight,
I have no idea what you're thinking...


It's been a good couple of years
It's safe to say, I'll get over you my dear
It's safe to say I'll be missing you,
It's safe to say our friendship really grew
You've been a secret too long now
Kept your mouth shut and I don't know how
It's safe to say that we are through
But how I felt don't think you really knew

It's safe to say
That there's a great deal of growing up to be done
It's not as if it's in my hands now
I can't keep waiting for you
Your eyes light up, with a beautiful green
You can't understand, what you've just seen
If only you knew what you're feeling

It's been a good couple of years...

It's safe to say you're not saying anything...
It's safe to say my tears say everything...

It's been a good couple of years...
Track Name: What if
What if I fail?
I tried my best
So what if my best isn't good enough?

What if I lose?
What if I lose again
And lose again, do I try again?

What if I'm rejected? What if
What if I'm criticised? What if…
Do I let it pull me down?
Or do I push through?
Do I push through

What if I break?
Or I take a great fall?
Do I lie still on the floor

What if I'm stuck
If I hit a brick wall
Do I sit down and stall?

What if I'm rejected...
I’ve got to…

I’ve got to…

What if I am lost?
There's no choice you got
You either stay still and rot
Or you find home
Track Name: Blessings
If I woke up tomorrow, in a different body
Would you like me more?
There's this girl you see, as beautiful as anyone could be
And I'm so far from that

If I woke up tomorrow, in a different body
The mirror would be my friend, and not my enemy
I would see a smile, instead of my teeth
And I would put on my clothes without any grief

I need to count my blessings
Cos I can't go on hurting
Need to treat myself, like I would treat a friend
I need to count my blessings

If I woke up tomorrow, in a different body
I would go up to you, and start some kissin
If I were flawless then I would know
If I looked like her you'd never say no

I need to count my blessings...

If I woke up tomorrow, with a different mind set
The mirror would be my friend, and not my enemy
So strip your mind to uncover the lies
And see the green, in your striking eyes

I need to count my blessings...
Track Name: Jonny
Mystery Man,
I'm falling asleep
Just so I can talk to you
She hands me a picture, I wont forget
I strain my eyes, to see a silhouette
I see him waiting in the shadows
With anticipation, I turn to see, just as she says to me
Yeah she says to me

She says I haven't met my Jonny yet,
She says I haven't mine, oh no
And mother said that there's someone somewhere waiting for you
Oh no, you haven't met your Jonny yet

Blackened out man
What are you doing?
Are you listenin for a sound?
You're so familiar, and I know
There's nowhere else for me to go
I shade my eyes from the burning sun
And just as I tilt my hand, so I can see, she will say to me
Yeah she says to me

She says I haven't...

My Future Man,
What are you thinking?
Have you got your head in the clouds
Have you been dreamin, have you been yearnin
For someone to hold you close?
There's a part of you that has yet to see
Mystery Girl, who waits to see, just as she says to me

She says I haven't....
Track Name: The Never Ending Search
I want everything
Because I don't have the one thing
But that won't bring me happiness
So tell me, why do I waste my energy?

Once you stop looking you will find it
And once you find it you'll want something else
So you'll strive and struggle and you'll jump that hurdle
Only to start again

Try to live in the moment
But I feel so broken
I shatter with each morning break
When I turn and don't see a face

Once you stop looking…
Only to start again.

What are you waiting for?
It’s right at your front door
It's in your hands
To change the way you think

I want everything
But nothing compares to the one thing
But still, it won't bring me happiness
So hear me, stop wasting your energy

One you stop looking…
Only to start again.
Track Name: My Old Best Friend
I remember you my Old Best Friend
We’d laugh, we’d talk, and sing all night
And with our guitars we would share
The words in our hearts

I remember you my Old Best Friend
We’d smile, we’d cry, and play all day
No one else understood
Why we were laughing so hard

I remember you my Old Best Friend
We were always there for each other
I remember when you confessed that
You were a lesbian

I remember you my Old Best Friend
It wasn’t all song and play
I remember when you OD’d
And you had to go to therapy

How you doing my Old Best Friend?
I hope you’re okay, hope you’re okay, hope you’re okay (repeat)

How you doing my Old Best Friend?
I saw the paper and I don’t know what to say
I just hope you’re okay
I’m so sorry it turned out that way
I hope you’re okay

Keep your head held high
And remember the good times

I remember you my Old Best Friend
I remember you my Old Best Friend
I hope you’re okay, hope you’re okay, hope you’re okay
I think about you everyday.
