2016 B-sides & Extras Lyrics

Step into the Light — Live unreleased song from 2016

Oh all of your faith in simple shadows and your hope for something more
[?] any reason to be sure
You believe, there’s nothing more to add
You believe, it’s as simple as that

I don’t care about the aliens, ghosts, and fairies, all the voices in your head
It’s when your “I believe, it’s true, I know”, I start to get upset

Because you don’t know, you don’t know, you don’t know
You just want it all true
No, you don’t know, you don’t know, you don’t know
You just have to say you do
You can’t really know, you can only believe with a confidence born of deceit

The only angels you should hear are reason, honesty, equality and love
The only devils you should fear are hatred, ignorance, greed and a world full of people scared dumb

You believe, it’s as simple as that
You believe, there’s nothing more to add

I don’t care about your sinners, saints, and saviours, acting with mysterious ways
It’s when your “I believe it’s true, I know!”, I start to feel dismayed

Because you don’t know, you don’t know, you don’t know
You just want it all true
No, you don’t know, you don’t know, you don’t know
You just have to say you do
No, you can’t really know, you can only believe, ignorance borne of deceit

The only angels you should hear are reason, honesty, equality, and love
The only devils you should fear are hate and anger that scream in a world full of people scared dumb

You believe, it’s as simple as that
You believe, there’s nothing more to add

Because you don’t know, you don’t know, you don’t know
You just want it all true
No you don’t know, you don’t know, you don’t know
You just have to say you do

You can’t really know, you can only believe
It really is insane, all this crazy desperate need
For unknowable magic, strange supernatural power
You’re flying through space at a million miles an hour
For 4 billion years, the sun keeps coming up
It’s all too wonderful for words but for you it’s not enough
You should step out of the shadows, yeah, and step into the light

It Can Never Be the Same — Live unreleased song from 2016

Don’t worry, I smile
I’ll miss you, but it’s not like you’re gone
Don’t worry, I smile
It’s not like there won’t be another one

We laughed about last year
The games we played, the songs we sang
The way we danced all night
Don’t worry, I smile
We’ll do all those things again next time

And I kiss you
So soft, so cold, so pale,
The words are left unsaid
But we know, we always know

I can sing, I can dance, I can laugh
As if nothing ever changed
But without you, without you
It can never be the same
It can never be the same
It can never be the same

Don’t worry, I smile
I’ll miss you, but it’s not like you’re gone
Oh, don’t worry, I smile
It’s not like there won’t be another one
There won’t be another one
However long I wait
There won’t be another one
It will always be too late
There won’t be another one
We won’t do it all gain
There won’t be another one
With out it can never be the same
It can never be the same
It can never be the same

I can sing, I can dance, I can laugh
As if nothing ever changed
But without you, without you
It can never be the same
