"ALWAYS NEVER"
Written by Imbruglia/Booker
Produced by D. Munday
There's colours in between us
But still it looks the same
You stand here before me
Waking me up with
It's wonderful pain
The bus is gone before us
Then you wake up
And your walking in circles
Shaking the hand
of bad habits again, again
This is right now
Trust me somehow
Let it be, just let it be
Walk out the door
Something better
Always never
Cos misery loves company
You can be sure
You're looking in the mirror
Mmm.. you're scratching off my skin
You think I didn't notice
The madness and
torture is drawing me in
The satellite is watching
Oh, then you come home
And switch on your sorrow
Boil up a bad mood
Shaking the hand of bad habits again
Always never, always never
Let it be, just let it be
Walk out the door
Always never, always never
Cos misery loves company
You can be sure

"BROKEN THREAD"
Written by Imbruglia/Corner/Howe/Pickering
Produced by "Line of Flight"
Waking early i hear myself breathing
Covered up in my hand me down
hand me down
Hiding under my patchwork freezing
With my wedding dress calling me,
calling me
I dress myself in dis-function
Do i drown you in sympathy,
sympathy
You could be my winter messiah
Scarred around and around me....
around me
Cause im sticked up like an
angel chord, i'm fixed up
They try to run and
hide somehere in there defense
And now want to hand me down again.....
On a broken thread, on a broken thread
I choose to set you on fire
no more wearing and tearing me,
tearing me
Your still my only desire
And now it seems like your leaving me,
freeing me, healing me

"COLD AIR"
Written by Corner/Coverdale-Howe/Imbruglia/Pickering
Waiting for the last leaf to fall
Can I hear a cry
for a dead man to crawl
Asleep like stones in the well
Empty as you leave your dry sea shell
Never seen you came this far
Never thought I'd hope this hard
(Like Air)
Always looking down upon yourself
(Like Air)
You live 2 feet above yourself
(Somewhere)
We will always be in parallel
(Out there)
It's a place without a hope in hell
(Like Air)
Haven't made a sound all week
Tryin to gather up some
promises to keep
I watched as the icicles fell
Pinned to the bottom or drowning,
its hard to tell
You may be human after all
Must you build yourself so tall
Trying to wash your trace off my skin
Cover up the footprints
I've been waking in
Easier to cut you cold
You can keep your waste of space,
I'm half way home.

"HIDE BEHIND THE SUN"
Written by Imbruglia/Thornalley
Produced by P. Thornalley
Tonight,
everything but me,
taken out to sea,
all gone.
A wish,
Written in the sand,
washed away tomorrow.
This time,
look what I've become
Didn't run,
run from what you've done,
didn't hide behind the sun.
And I wanted everything,
thought that you
could bring me
daylight.
A dream, burning in the sky,
leaves my spirits dry.
And you lied,
now look what I've become.
Didn't run,
run from what you've done,
Didn't hide behind the sun
Couldn't run,
lost in what
you've done,
look what I've become.
This time,
look what I've become
Didn't run,
run from what
you've done
Didn't hide behind the sun
Couldn't run,
lost in what you've done
Look what I've become

"JUST ANOTHER DAY"
Written by Imbruglia/Clark
Produced by G. Clark
Monday's eyes have got stuck
on the ceiling again
Then motivation just hung up
the phone on a friend
A bottle of wine and
this sorry excuse for a song
Nothing excites me and
I don't know where I belong
But I still look in the mirror
And I still get out of bed
It's just another day
It's just another day
Just like the other day
Sunday's lies have just written
themselves on the wall
I should be crying but nothing
can reach me at all
But I still look in the mirror
And I still get out of bed
And I still see your smiling face
So now your heels are dragging
It's been a long time running away
with your head in the clouds
What are you waiting for?
But I still look in the mirror
And I still get out of bed
And I still remember what you said
It's just another day(x3)
Just like the other day
(I don't know where I belong)
It's just another day
(Stuck on the ceiling again)
It's just another day
(Hung up the phone on a friend)
It's just another day
Just like the other day(x3)

"SHIKAIYA"
Written by Imbruglia/Clark
Produced by Gabriel/Clark
Five years old
And life had made me shy
I'm telling you
Shikaiya made me feel
like I could fly
And there she was
So crazy but she was on fire
A smile behind the door
of every answer to my questions
You made it seem like
anything was possible
That's where you stood
out from everybody else
Shikaiya , yeah
That's what you're about and
You should never lose yourself
Shikaiya , yeah
Down the phone
Years and miles apart
We try to find the magic
we used to bounce
From heart to heart
But you don't seem
to believe in anything today
I wonder if your dreams
got smashed upon the rocks
of Bateau Bay
You made me feel like
every wave is beautiful

"STANDING THERE"
Written by Imbruglia/Thornalley
Produced by Thornalley
Have you ever been strong
Have you ever known when
its time to walk away
Just walk away, yeah
Well i couldnt wait to see you
I was listening by the phone there
When you called
When you called and said what you said
All this time
All this time with the
fighting and screaming
It's breaking me its taken its toll on me
And its like where standing there
Hand in hand, just
waiting for the ground to give way
Waiting for the right words to say
So take your chance
And don't hold back
Cause time is all we've got around here
Time for me to wake up and
see you standing there
You're beautiful just standing there
Have you ever crossed the line
Cause theres nothing I wouldn't do for love
For this kind of love yeah
I'm trying to reach out
Trying to make you make you understand it
Understand the things that
I'd like between you and me cause
All this time
All this time with the fighting and screaming
It's breaking me
it's taken it's toll on me
