DANCING IN DEFEAT
David William
You nearly brought it down
Afraid of what would come
A fate you cannot change
No matter what they say
It's strange the way it goes
Cos suddenly I know
And everything's alright
My footsteps are in time
When you're dancing to defeat
And you've fallen on your feet
And you know it
When you're collapsing in a heap
And you cannot think to speak
In a moment you'll fall back in place
The truth is always there
Especially when it hurts
You're losing self-control
The doubts have taken hold
But you know you can't go back
You've come so far and that
Is why you'll carry on
A soldier on his own
When you're dancing to defeat
And you've fallen on your feet
And you know it
When you're collapsing in a heap
And you cannot think to speak
In a moment you'll fall back in place
No sign of action means I'm out the race
Cannot take the pace
A fear of falling grace
Forever banned
Forever and...
When you're dancing to defeat
And you've fallen on your feet
And you know it
When you're collapsing in a heap
And you cannot think to speak
In a moment you'll fall back in place
You'll fall back in place
You'll fall back in place
BEYOND CONTROL
David William
Tracing the road back
To figure out where you went wrong
Mysterious shapes form
From a distance and then they're gone
I'll occupy myself somehow
It makes me feel like I'm still young
Information all at once
Light a match and it all burns
So what have we bought that can't be sold
Caught in a trap beyond control
Questions arise
Waters unkind
Beyond control
Beyond control
Coincidence or chance to blame
The people who were there before
To cancel out all your mistakes
Then you realise you're making more
What have we bought that can't be sold
Caught in a trap beyond control
Questions arise
Waters unkind
Beyond control
Beyond control
Beyond control
Beyond control
DISCONNECTED
David William
Dilute the concept understand
When I was young it all made sense
Different words deceiving me
Witness a miracle or two
Turning the wheel inside of you
Faced with pressure to retreat
Disconnected from the people whom I belong
Disconnected all the pieces just scatter on
Powerful scenes you try to grasp
Taking it in's the final act
Watching your step along the way
Hundreds of people through the streets
Walking the miles but incomplete
Part of the jigsaw; the missing piece
Disconnected from the people whom I belong
Disconnected from the city where I was born
Disconnected from the people whom I belong
Disconnected all the pieces will scatter on
ECLIPSE
David William
LOOKING BACK
David William
Stop the clock and go back
But there's no turning back
Chemicals you eat fed by a machine
Now it's all gone wrong
We're back to where we were
I'm moving on oh no
It won't be long before
They realise oh no
Looking back is the only way forward
Looking back is the only way forward
Trace a line throughout time
The further you go the more it rhymes
Reasons obselete when you hear the beat
Now we're out of tune
What are we to do
I'm moving on oh no
It won't be long before
They realise oh no
Looking back is the only way forward
Looking back is the only way forward
The last thing you'll ever know
Is what people see inside your soul
I'm moving on oh no
It won't be long before
I realise oh no
Looking back is the only way forward
Looking back is the only way forward
