Had a go at First Steps:

 

First Steps

 

Help me out, help me out

‘Cause I’m falling and I can’t get back.

And there isn’t any number I can call for that.

 

Oh, help me out, help me out

‘Cause I fall, and I was so scared

I know what was severed, and I’m rolling in

 

Even when the sun set

It burned my eyes

Even when the dark

Began to burn

 

And just because I roll, it dies

And turned to worse

To get the public reigns >>[ togehter for the grace of God] !?? :thinking:

I don’t know why.

 

---

 

The second and fourth verses make absolutely NO sense at all, so I'm positive I got pretty much all of them wrong. I just wrote what I could hear. :P

 

 

 

No its really well fitting what i can hear :p

i changed one line! i marked it in green...

My songs (these are all from the original links from rob):

 

The Fall of Man: 2:10

Bloodless Revolution: 2:37

The Man Who Swears: 1:46

The Man Who Swears ii: 1:02

First Steps: 1:29

Lovers in Japan: 1:29

Loveless: 0:31

Goodbye and Goodnight: 2:12

 

I got St. Stephen off youtube after I accidentally deleted it, and it goes for 1:17 - however at the end there is approx. 2 seconds of nothingness, so 1:15 would be the correct time. ^^

The last set of lyrics I've attempted! 8D

 

Goodbye and Goodnight

 

Look how far the river took us.

How far the river took my son.

But the boat’s gone ‘round the harbour,

And I gotta know the sinner

And I wait.

 

There’s a boat goin’ down the road and sea

A tumble will begin

It’s the world you’re living in.

 

The boat will sign the bottom,

And I hit down the bottom,

Oh, I can’t describe the state you put me in.

Oh, yeah.

 

And I’m so sorry,

I’ve been known to not hurry

And baby I hope that I’m sorry

‘Cause tonight…

^ You forgot First Steps!

 

wats new??

i have

Lovers in Japan demo - Bloodless revolution - St Stephane

 

new song??

 

The rest of the demo songs have been released, but via Rob's request they are only to be PM'd to members here to avoid major leakage. It won't stop it, but eh...

 

You can PM: coldplaykb, bear or perejro (I'd say PM perejro, he's been sending them out fastest and most recently) for the songs. Coldplaykb was the original PM-er, given the songs by Rob, but the others are PMing the songs they received, so you can get it from them as well. :nice:

Here are my interpretations of the lyrics I've posted in this thread - grouping them all together - sam's idea. ^^

 

Corrections and suggestions are MORE than welcome. 8D

 

St. Stephen

 

See a bird form a silver

Silver road of only sin

But I'm coming back, don't win

And the streets that rode the morning in.

 

Light that boat on this river

Gotta know where to begin

Come on out, the other soul of Stephen

And things will never be the same again

 

 

The Fall of Man

 

Sleep on the ocean

Sleep on the sand

I’ve been very busy since the fall of man

Son of the devil

You won’t understand

Now come on, baby,

That's a sudden end

 

Speak of the devil

Inside my head

You’ve been very busy since the world's gonna end

Tired of the symbol

The sun, the sand

Talk a little louder, I don't understand.

 

Gonna get the supper to the world tonight (hahahah, no. That’s what I’m hearing though, so sue me!)

??? I’m gonna fall asleep.

There’s a tiny little sin I've gotta do.

Got to say that I’m only holding up at night

Turn with the flow, or this storm

 

There’s a world outside, wanna let you in

There’s a world outside, not going in

There’s a world outside that wanna let you in

 

Love, love got over that storm

Before you get somewhere,

Oh, love got over that storm.

 

I've got a wife and kids in Baltimore, Jack.

I went out for a ride, and I never came back.

The Man Who Swears

 

awesome scatting

 

There’s a man who swears he’s God,

But I’m pretty sure he’s not.

There’s a man who walks around

Like he owns the fucking lot.

 

There’s a man who takes his time,

From the hands of a cuckoo clock

You can hear him walk around

‘Tick tock, tick tock, tick tock.’

 

awesome scatting

 

At first, it was easy

But now why’s it have to be so hard?

Heaven is a fire escape

You try to cling to in the dark

 

At first it was simple

But now it got too complicate

But the world just got a lovely time,

Or blame it all on my mistake!

 

Maybe I’ll find heaven?

One day, after dark?

Maybe you’ll find heaven is a place to part?

 

The Man Who Swears ii

----

 

Oh, shit, I forgot the middle bit of The Man Who Swears… *random mumbling*

 

Control the way we turn,

We are doing everything we can

We still can’t seem to switch it on.

And oh, my time ran out.

 

And I am floating up beneath the clouds

Trying to turn it on, it on.

 

And oh,

It’s you, baby.

I’m so sorry.

Baby, I’d’ve done it, turning me on.

 

----

That last bit is pretty much indecipherable, but I tried. @_@

 

First Steps

 

Help me out, help me out

‘Cause I’m falling and I can’t get back.

And there isn’t any number I can call for that.

 

Oh, help me out, help me out

‘Cause I fall, and I was so scared

I know what was severed, and I’m rolling in

 

Even when the sun set

It burned my eyes

Even when the dark

Began to climb.

 

And just because I rolled a dice

It turned to worse

Together for the grace of God,

I don’t know why.

Loveless

 

Loveless,

Just those three tiny words.

I’m falling, falling, falling, (Chris stuffing up :shy:)

Falling, falling ‘till I’m in.

Until I started tearing in

I’m all alone, how long will it take?

Da da da da da da da

 

Goodbye and Goodnight

 

Look how far the river took us.

How far the river took my son.

But the boat’s gone ‘round the harbour,

And I gotta know the sinner
