/><br />Over me<br />Came all the rain and lights<br />Over me<br /><br />She took my hand and now there's no other<br /><br />Don't you see<br />She is never-ending?<br />She walked on stones<br />From Ellis End to Maryland<br /><br />Over me<br />Came all the rain and lights<br />Over me<br /><br />She took my hand and now there's no other<br /><br />And in this dream<br />We go on forever<br />We climb the stairs<br />Thought I was good for nothing<br /><br />And then<br />Over me<br />Came all the rain and lights<br />Over me<br /><br />She took my hand and now there's no

style="font-size:85%;"><br /><br />I left a message to myself<br />That girl ain't no good for your health<br />Unhooked my brother's telephone<br />Pretended nobody was home<br /><br />Your love weren't nothing but trouble - I guess I'm only now paying the price<br /><br />Don't let the same bee sting you twice<br />Don't let the same bee sting you twice<br /><br />Climbing up your mama's stairs<br />Oblivious to your affairs<br />But really how could I have known?<br />Your lies were seeds carefully sewn<br /><br />But now I know I should always have listened to dear daddy's advice<br /><br />Don't let the same bee sting you twice<br />Don't let the same bee sting you twice<br /><br />Well now ain't you meant to die after one sting, honey?<br />But you just keep on coming back for more<br />And I've been losing my mind over this and ain't it funny<br />I've still got no idea what it is you're looking for?<br />Oh, and here she comes again -<br /><br />And now you're standing at my door<br />Just too damn pretty to ignore<br />And i think that maybe I've gone mad<br />And your love really weren't so bad<br /><br />And then you claim it was a case of neurotic perception and I say "Maybe, well that sounds about right"<br /><br />And then I let the same bee sting me twice<br />Yeah I let the same bee sting me twice.<br /><br /><br /></span><span style="font-weight:

/>I can't seem to get to grips with it<br />I almost touched my fingertips to it<br />Why oh my oh my?<br /><br />Then the stars came out once the lights went out<br />And I could not speak so I had to shout<br />And then the moon passed sadly by.<br /><br />The joys are few and far between<br />I've got the doomsday app. on my iPhone screen<br />Honey, I've seen the truth and it's worth than it seemed<br /><br />Sins derived and sins original<br />Lies eclipsed and lies made visible<br />I'm turning my back on the world and fixing my eyes on the sky<br /><br />I can't seem to get to grips with it<br />I almost touched my fingertips to it<br />Why oh my oh my?<br /><br />Then the stars came out once the lights went out<br />And I could not speak so I had to shout<br />And then the moon passed sadly by<br /><br />Love will I see you again<br />'Cause I could do with some mending<br />Love, will I see you again<br />'Cause I'm through with pretending<br />Love, will I see you again?<br /><br /><br /></span><span style="font-weight: bold;font-size:85%;" >The Wishbone</span><span style="font-size:85%;"><br /><br />I said I wanted summer and the morning brought the sun<br />I said I need a lover and by the next night I had one<br />I said I wanted a hurricane and the wind blew hard and the wind blew strong<br /><br />Careful what you wish for<br />Tearing back the wishbone<br /><br />I wished to live forever but ain't that hard for you and me<br />There ain't no heart at the centre of the earth far as I can see<br />Now I think it's time that you lay your head in the bed you've made<br /><br />Careful what you wish for<br />Tearing back the wishbone.<br /><br /></span><span style="font-weight: bold;font-size:85%;" ><br />Grey Lynn Park</span><span

/>Now I'm walking in the dark<br />In Grey Lynn Park<br /><br />I was born and then I died<br />Don't keep no record of either side<br />But somehow I lose these thoughts with ease<br />Under Pohutukawa trees<br /><br />I'm walking in the dark<br />Of Grey Lynn Park.<br /><br /><br /></span><span style="font-weight: bold;font-size:85%;" >Us Godless Teenagers</span><span
