Fairweather Lover Farewell my fairweather lover you loved me up but you left me down now you're workin' on another and you're makin' your way all over town You promised me you'd never leave you waited your whole life for me but I got sick and you got scarce like you wouldn't believe Farewell my fairweather lover you loved me up but you left me down now you're workin' on another and you're makin' your way all over town You may be hopin' that I'll get better before you go and settle down but I am gonna find me another for better things I'm bound Farewell my fairweather lover you loved me up but you left me down now you're workin' on another and you're makin' your way all over town Someone kind Stay by my side and if I fall apart arms open wide to hold me tight make everything alright until the days again are bright Farewell my fairweather lover you loved me up but you left me down but I just started feelin' so much better and I'm makin' my way all over town
2.	Kimberley MacGregor featuring Tzadeka - Hope Displaced 04:36	lyrics	buy track
Hope Displaced A life unravelling through the sands of time slipping away no longer youth no longer the luxury of untruth Time was on my side now time is sneakily stacking up against me a kick to the butt youth is beauty but no guts beauty runs away like time and my hair turns grey I still don't know where I'm going I've tried to forget where I've been and most of all I've tried to forget him The him the I've never seen The him that Disney promised me in the 80's Instead I get old pancake tits, rolls that fold happily never happened and the beast turned out to be a beast Stories unfold for the lies that ran cold and you ran rampant until you ran away Hope displaced, Heart sick too sharp to settle roots flailing to the breeze survival of the you figure out what fits whatever you convince yourself to believe (x2) And it will work cause the only thing that does is what you believe and as you pursue you'll still find that it's true That the truth is only what you believe
3.	Cheatin' on my Heart 02:18	lyrics	buy track
Cheatin' on my Heart You've been cheatin' on my heart but that's okay You've been pleading for a new start and promising me your heart you say what you do even though you know it ain't fair only lookin' for a stroke your ego stuck and busted broke you're messing up yourself and you're fucking with me you're cheating on my heart but thats okay well you had me for a second there convinced me that you really care I thought I saw it in your eyes but they were only telling lies you think it's gonna be some fun think you're foolin' everyone but in the end and until then the joke is on you you're cheating on my heart but thats okay bridge cause you might be makin' time on someone else's dime you don't care as long as you get your supply you're cheating on my heart and you think you're so smart but you're messing up so far and you're tearing us apart you're cheating on my heart but thats okay
4.	Nothin' at All 03:13	lyrics	buy track
Nothin’ at All I’m feeling complacent How do you shake the feeling When you can’t care x2 I just want be Full of joy and peace And all of those other things That I’m supposed to be I’m tired and I’m discouraged I’m feeling run down Tired of trying to be what I should be But what I never ever am And I’m really tired of making apologies For my honest to goodness feelings For the thoughts I’d rather banish For ghosts that haunt my head Thinkin’ maybe I’d be better off dead And no that’s not what I meant No, no that’s not what I meant I said no that’s what I meant I never meant nothing Never meant nothin’ at all I’m feeling displacement Alone though I know All these people around me But these people never found me And I guess I never found them either Cause we both had to be there And I haven’t been there in ages No I haven’t been there in ages I just feel angry I just want to be alone I don’t wanna see nobody I just stay at home And I really lack for nothing I know this problem is my own But I’m really tired of trying no, I just want to be alone And no that’s not what I meant…
5.	Wrong Way 05:02	lyrics	buy track
Wrong Way Spent a lot of years doing as you should Trying to be responsible and trying to be good A lot of nights spent in A lot of thick turned thin But you made your way when there was a way to be made Always your love was true Never did to no one as you wouldn’t want to you But the years and the tears took their toll on you Alone- although you made your home So things didn’t turn out like you planned Took more than you thought you’d stand Life resemblant reprimand did not turn out like planned So you work and you save all your youth away With just enough to show to keep you stuck in tow The rewards are few and far Far too far between; you begin to wonder why You work so hard to find life just pass you by When you’re doing what you should But there wasn’t anybody there to say You’re headed in the wrong way, the wrong way No there wasn’t anyone to say You’re headed in the wrong way, the wrong way
6.	No Lover 03:47	lyrics	buy track
No Lover Made me feel so fine for a time but he was the lyin' cheatin' kind he broke my bed and he robbed me blind but he was no lover, no lover of mine Now I know there's no use in tryin' Cause I'm all done I'm all done with cryin' He took my heart and he took my mind but he was no lover no lover of mine I ran away I ran like hell I almost ran myself into the ground A woman so fine won't come by again but you won't, no you won't you won't forget Cause you lie and you lie you lie like a snake leaving devastation in your wake but it's over now so don't make no mistake you were no lover, no lover of mine
7.	True 04:50	lyrics	buy track
True Well I loved you quickly and I loved you strong When it was right and even when you were wrong Never could say that love has gone away Only that I need to be alone CHORUS All that I'm wanting is for you to be true Even though I know I oughta be through with you There's gotta be better things that I can do Than to keep on playing this fool for you I couldn't quite figure why you'd hang around After slagging my name all over this town Wouldn't you be better then to leave me be If I was everything you've said of me Cause if the things that you said are true Then that would mean the crazy one is you How many days can I walk away Before you finally leave me be CHORUS Now that the dust settled on the ground I can see more clearly to what this did amount You bring me grief when you come around And then just the missing when you're gone I can't take the missing when you're gone CHORUS
8.	Brown Handed 03:55	lyrics	buy track
Brown-Handed I know you don’t think I ‘m talking bout you But I’ve seen all the nasty things that you do Like how you put down your own friend You’re a bully and you know that’s not the end Cause you know that you go and you Rally up your troops And if you ask me well I’ll tell ya that you’re no good You’re no Good You even kick your best friend When she’s down Then you go and you run her right outta town So tell me how does this make you strong? Cause in my mind it only makes you wrong And you can give it, give it, give it But you’ll never get it back from me There’s some things I can’t get past in our history Because I don’t like you Don’t like the things that you do Something you didn’t understand You throw all that shit around Look down Cause it’s all over, yes it’s all over your hands
9.	Certainly 03:03	lyrics	buy track
Certainly Certainly, that was the last time for you and me You stir up my feelings just to put me down again You play me, disarray me, and you leave me here in pain And I’m left alone with my grief With my grief as my reward For giving in to my own sin To my blunt disbelief Certainly, that was the last time for you and me I wanna be the only one or no one at all to you Can’t take the games or the lies you say So tell me something true If the kindness that I’ve shown just didn’t Get through to you Do you love me, do you love me not Oh tell me we are through Certainly, that was the last time for you and me And no I don’t need you to tell me What my instincts already know About the company you’re keeping or the places that you go Or what you left behind to get there and how it grieves your soul A door that never closed or opened Made a heart run cold Certainly, that was the last time for you and me
10.	I Wish 06:23	lyrics	buy track
I wish I wish I could write it all out I would stay up all night I would write it all right every pain every fear every doubt I wish I could sing it away I would sing til I was hoarse I would sing with such force I'd be singin' the whole live long day But you can't bleed your soul it gets out of control and hearts seem to break with every mistake that I make Now I'm tired I'm lonely and I'm blue and I can't even admit that I've been thinking of you... I wish I could cut myself free out of my cocoon with teeth push me out of my rut and you're liable to get cut there's only room here for me I wish I weren't so hard on myself I wish I was easier on me I could get there someday if I just got out of my way I can't even imagine where I'd be Just another lost soul drifting out of control really nothing much here to see Just another lone girl Making my way in the world wondering what I could have been But it's hard to stay grounded When you keep losing ground and the ground keeps on changing it keeps rearranging I wish that I wasn't so sad Or could make myself not feel so bad Who knows what I could do if I didn't sit home and stew Maybe nothing would change and I'd still feel better too
