1.All The Way Down
Lyricist:Glen Hansard
You have taken me all the way down
Down upon my knees
You have broken me all the way now
Tell me how it feels
Some fight you gave
When I pushed you away from me
In the morning when your returning
I'll be fast asleep
In the darkness when you find this
I'll be out of reach
You have broken me all the way down
You'll be the last, you'll see
You'll be the last
And what chance had we got
When you missed every shot
In the morning when your returning
I'll be fast asleep
And in the brightness when you find this
I'll be out of reach
You have broken me all the way down
You'll be the last, you'll see
You'll be the last
2.Black Winged Bird
Lyricist:Dave Brian Geraghty
Night can't come quick enough
My faults shine in the sun
A train bridge of spies
Watches all the cars collide
I roll my green sleeves over Ruby
I don't blame you for doing it to me
Real girls don't take aim
Like kings do these days
I made my mind up to be a black winged bird
Never turn my head for how things were
Leave the bluest skies for boys to burn
And I'll soar on my way
Sad as the state of things we can't change
Now we're paper dolls all aflame
In houses that all look the same
Rows of regret
An arson for a wilderness
I hide my saints in the willow trunk
You started me on this junk
Now my black lungs are blue
But I'm still singing to you
3.Last Leaf
Lyricist:Dave Brian Geraghty
I know what it would take for me to be free
To always be silenced every time she spills tears
I can't ever leave you, baby I believe
Just want to be the one who shakes down the last leaf
Feel I'm hanging around only to test thread
If it's strong enough to hold me
Then I'm weak enough to live
But I can't ever leave you, baby I believe
Just want to be the one who shakes down the last leaf
Long time running from the strong lines that holds
It's all I've known, don't adjust your set
There are cracks on the pavement
So watch where you walk
I'm up in my room, can you be here soon?
You've put it across forbidden lines
If you never brought it back
I'd never know how where to find it
Long time running from the strong lines that holds
It's all I've known, don't adjust your set
The storm will pass, been up on the roof 'til now
Changing the tune
There are cracks on the pavement
So watch where you walk
Are you in the room?
Can you be here soon?
4.Some Surprise
Lyricist:Paul Anthony Noonan
Your lips come as some surprise
That they would want to come and meet mine
They never taste like the last time
Your lips come as some surprise
I was always a special child
With circuit boards for my insides
And all I dreamed of was flying high
So your lips came as some surprise
Your lips come as some surprise
That they would want to come and meet mine
They never taste like the last time
Your lips come as some surprise
I was never one of the boys
Throwing shapes and power ploys
In your arms a warmth I did find
In your seed I did recline
Your lips come as some surprise
That they would want to come and meet mine
They never taste like the last time
Your lips come as some surprise
Now that we've sat for a while
You showed me yours and I've showed you mine
Even after all this time
Your lips come as some surprise
Your lips come as some surprise
That they would want to come and meet mine
They never taste like the last time
Your lips come as some surprise
5.Too Many People
Lyricist:Oliver Patrick Cole
My hand it shakes, my belly aches, I shouldn't be here
But what can I do, 'cos I spent last night in our room
A second chance, a near escape, I learnt my lesson
But not so easily, and I left my weapon at the scene
What you gonna do about it now?
'Cos too many people love you and you're never around
What you gonna do it now?
'Cos they're always looking for you and you're never in town
My head it pounds, so many sounds, as reason wakens
To present it's case, 'cos my conscience always speaks too late
I wait until I get my chance to change the subject
But not too obviously, 'cos my weakness knows no subtlety
What you gonna do about it now?
'Cos too many people love you and you're never around
What you gonna do it now?
'Cos they're always looking for you and you're never in town
My hand it shakes, my belly aches, I shouldn't be here
But what can I do?
What you gonna do about it now?
'Cos too many people love you and you're never around
What you gonna do it now?
Who are you gonna run to when this all gets you down?
