Twenty Years From Now
Written by Michael Halls, arranged by Fables
Your hand's are shaking are you scared?
I don't know why it's only you and I around
And your face is like a portrait of my own
Twenty years from now
You seem frustrated with the world
And in my haze i've let this craziness continue
For far to many day's and night's somehow
Hope im not like this twenty years from now
Where does your smile go when you are down
I've searched for years but i've given up now
You say wait a while and we'll all find out
How hard it is twenty years from now
Twenty years from now
While you were far away from home
To what extent were you content with strangers doorways
That barely offered shelter from the rain
In twenty years is this all that you gained
You tried so hard to make ends meet
When you arrived you felt alive
You were deluded
Believed you had the world beneath your feet
Infact you broke your back for twenty years
Twenty years from now
I know how much we mean to you
And I hope that they
Love me
Like we love you - Track Name: Warning Signs

Warning Signs
Written by Michael Halls, arranged by Fables
Can you tell me why and how
You and I first fell in love
The memory escapes me now
Drifted with the clouds above
Seems that we were coasting by
Never stopped to talk it through
Wrapped up warm in you and I
Lost what made us me and you
Did you hear the warning signs
Running through this voice of mine
Telling you that over time
We had grown apart
People said you bleed me dry
Made me old before my years
Nothing but a useless tie
To everything I used to be
How did you ever steel my heart
I didn't feel you take it
Now we'll forever be apart
I'll never let you break it
You're underneath my skin
How did you get inside
I would have never let you in
If I had read the warning signs - Track Name: Music Box

Music Box
Written by Michael Halls, arranged by Fables
Opened the music box
Found you inside
I tried to pick the locks
All I had to do was wind
A beautiful carousel
Turned along to a chiming bell
You were a tiny figure
Alone as far as I could tell
Rings of dust around you
Tell that its been a while
You must be glad I found you
Stayed long enough to turn your dial
Closed my eyes to dream
And I was inside
Someone had painted tears
Falling from you porcelain eyes
Oh can you feel the gears turning underneath your feet
And is it telling you that
None of this is real
And you and I will never meet outside this daydream
Rings of dust around us
Darling has it been this long
Try let the music drown us
Any second now the gears will stop
In this music box
There is a hope
That I
Might find My love - Track Name: Sewn With Your Thread

Sewn with you thread
Written by Michael Halls, arranged by Fables
Strangers meet at times familiar
My awkward heart sits tight and
Your unfamiliar name tastes sour in my mouth
Routine nerves expected
And old consistent rhythms
We somehow both lost sight of cos you were not around
Sewn with your thread
Now there’s too many years between us
You never let me in and
You couldn’t fix the damage
And chose yourself instead
After all the silence
The gap that slowly widened
One thing still apparent
I’m sewn with you thread
Sewn with your thread
Now that our thread is unwinding
I feel us growing apart
I’ll be forever finding
Pieces of your thread inside my heart
That’s why I’m sewn with your thread - Track Name: Thomas

Thomas
Written by Michael Halls, arranged by Fables
Somewhere the wind moves the trees,
Somewhere an orchestra of leaves,
Are blowing your book open,
That’s where you are.
Somewhere the sand is a golden yellow,
Somewhere your footprints are covered by waves,
That’s where you are.
I ought to name my shadow after you,
Because you’re always with me with everything I do,
Thomas…………..
Somewhere you’re wrapped in a scarf and mittens,
I hear you laugh as the snow comes down,
You play till you feel like the frost has bitten,
I call out your name, just to hear the sound.
That’s where we are.
Your legs they shake as you feel that first kiss,
Her eyes are as blue as the sky above,
It’s over as fast as your heart is beating,
Oh Thomas won’t you tell me, if this could be love
Is that were you are.
Thomas is this where you are …I’d like to know - Track Name: Airs And Graces

Airs and Graces
Written by Michael Halls, arranged by Fables
Put on your airs and graces
You can go watch their faces turn red
No one will know your faking
Shed every single trace of yourself
Or you could give up
And start again
You’ve got a life outside of here
With real friends
The game is up
Your covers blown
Your gonna have to face this one alone
You are fooling no one
But yourself my love
Give it sometime and you’ll find my love
These people who seem so unkind my love
Are merely stuck in a bind my love
Because of the way life unwinds my love
And there’s good and bad in the best of us
Something to never forget my love
Some days even you and the rest of us
Can stereotype and be quick to judge
