The Hampdens Unreleased Songs Lyrics
1.Generation Y

Lyricist:Gavin Ross Crawcour, Julian Hamilton, Julian Andrew Hewitt,
Susannah Amy Legge

I'm sick and tired of apathy and Cobain tributes
Buy some time and make a bid for generation Y
Why can't I get it together?

Meet me tonight on MySpace I'll be there waiting
A back lit sky could be nuclear or just a late sunrise
The day is waiting

Another stolen glance on a Friday night
But you could never know
That this is not a life, it is an addiction

Across the bar, I watch you dance
But never mind
It's over now for generation Y

French Vogue knows that spiders cling to models faces
Another high-rise, a facsimile of the motto's of our youth
So long ago I don't recall them

A beating heart in a dark club
You're not from the town that I grew up in
My friends do all the things that other folks do

To keep the world from closing in
Take my hand and come back
To the town that I grew up in

Another stolen glance
(Throw out all the clothes you own)
On a Friday night
(Throw out all the things you know)

You could never know
(This is not a life it is an addiction)
Across the bar
(Throw out all your comfy shoes)

I watch you dance
(Throw out all your videos)
We never mind, it's over now for generation Y


2.Under The Volcano

Lyricist:Gavin Crawcour

Poster on the wall
Shows an outline of a man
It's almost like he's not really there

Faces white like smog
A beating heart in a dark club
Young enough to want but not to keep

I'm thinking it's alright
Heading for the fall
I hope you do it right

Would you subscribes your every move?
But every time you speak it's mean
Another drunken fight, a bedroom set on fire
Reading off the script to me

I'm thinking it's alright
Heading for the fall
I hope you do it right
The papers say you're fine

But your eyes have sunk so deep
You stood into the light
I know you can't survive, oh no

You seem wise
And darkened eyes
You seem wise

I'm thinking it's alright
Heading for a fall
I hope you do it right


3.The Belljar (Summer In The Hamptons)

Lyricist:Gavin Crawcour, Julian Hewitt

Following you on yesterday
Never suited me any way
I am not the only one
Looks bad and alone at the time

Slow thing goes we all cry on and
Hope is by the sea, I am feeling uptight
Nothing on the inside, soaking up the sunlight
Trying to make it alright

I know my keep the poor
Means I never have to travel far
Between any only fare
It's worth the pain and fear

Slow thing goes we all cry on and
Hope is by the sea, I am feeling uptight
Nothing on the inside, soaking up the sunlight
Trying to make it alright

Can't believe it's so hard
I can buy a sports car
Take it to the end times
Driving through the water

Slow thing goes we all cry on and
Hope is by the sea, I am feeling uptight
Nothing on the inside, soaking up the sunlight
Trying to make it alright

Can't believe it's so hard
I can buy a sports car
Take it to the end times
Driving into the water

I am feeling uptight
Nothing on the inside, soaking up the sunlight
Trying to make it alright

Can't believe it's so hard
I can buy a sports car
Take it to the end times
Driving into the water


4.Your Love Is A Lost Code

Lyricist:Gavin Crawcour, Julian Hewitt, Susannah Legge

Your love is a lost code
And this room's as cold as hell
And nothin' gets through
And you feel so alone

Sunlight breaks through
A drawn winter blind
And I would leave you
If I had the time

Days pass through me in the faltering light
But I don't ever get to see them slip by
Nothing good comes to those who wait
And dying never seemed so easy

Your love is a lost code
And your heart is breakin' up
You're takin' a handful
You can't bring them up

The room is cavin' in
And there's people standin' 'round
But they can't get through
They can't speak a sound

Days pass o'er me in the faltering light
But I don't ever get to see them slip by
Nothing good comes to those who wait
And dying never seemed so easy

You say, you scream inside
But you want to know
Well I'm ashamed
To leave you on your own

(I can't read the single lines you steal)
And I can't save you from yourself this time
So easy

Love is a lost code
Your love is a lost code


5.Croupier

Lyricist:Julian Hewitt, Susannah Legge

Yes, I saw you today
When things go I don't know
It's all in what you're telling
I can't see where it went

It's too hard to be there again
But it's close it's rubbing off
At the grand is where I swear I left you, all alone
At the grand is where I swear I saw your face

See it's hurting me and I know
When I can see it hurts you too
It hurts so bad but maybe not?
When things go I don't know

It's all in what you're telling
There's danger it's special
It's like I'm waiting for a sign
And I'm close I'm on the edge


6.4Real

Lyricist:Gavin Crawcour, Julian Hewitt, Susannah Legge

Are you out there?
Are you out there?
Are you settled to a city of freeze on

Everyone in the crowd moved on
Shouting out is going on and you rode on
But there's a million places you can go
And you don't even leave much space in the snow

What you say is something
What you do is nothing
What you done is a wondering
If I could have you

Live tonight by the waterfall
I went over the edge
I been into lonely sheets
Are you 4real?

Soon I'll have gone in it for seven years
There's a little piece here
I know every thing is gone
Are you looking for a ride
Or to motorcycle every sight?

What you rode on
And as soon I saw you walking past
And I kept a couple photographs
That I hold on

What you say is something
What you do is nothing
What you done is wondering
If I can have you

Lived your life by the waterfall
Fell in love with the air
I been into lonely sheets
Are you 4real?

What you say is something
What you do is nothing
What you done is wondering
If I can have you

Lived your life by the waterfall
Fell in love with the air
I been into lonely sheets
Are you 4real?
