What Do I 03:52
I gave it all away Thats what I do I let it go astray That’s what I do What do I get out of this Is this something real? I dont know I dont know I opened up today That’s what I do I spilt my guts today That’s what I do What do I get out of this Is this something real? I dont know I dont know (repeat)

And the swallow comes and goes A hero’s heart is full They’ve taken all they can To give and never take The smile upon their face Take the ruby from my hilt You’re gonna cry your heart out Pick the gold leaf from my frame The sapphires from my eyes Work with me my friend You’ve sacrificed yourself To give away our lives And now our time must end You’re gonna cry your heart out

Gentleman 03:29
She’s getting dressed She’s going out So be a gentleman She’s had a smoke She’s had a drink So be a gentleman She’s going home She’s all alone So be a gentleman

Sitting in my slumber You’re gonna pull me under Tell me how to build a gun I dont feel like trying I’m all done with crying Tell me how to build a gun Guuuuuuun! Thinking is much harder When you’re feeling darker Tell me how to build a gun I dont feel like mixing I’m all done with kissing Tell me how to build a gun Guuuuuuun! Drowning in self pity I ain’t feeling pretty Tell me how to build a gun I dont feel like waiting Im all done self hating Tell me how to build a gun Guuuuuuuuun!

Went driving through the moors And came across a town Everything stopped Everything stopped You’re Not From Around Here The noise was deafening As we walked to the door Everything stopped Everything stopped You’re Not From Around Here The stares were saddening As silence cut the air Everything stopped In stranger town You’re Not From Around Here

Loner 04:26
Alone with my thoughts Making plans of course That I’ll never carry out Awkward social scenes Not equipped with means Can’t adapt...to it all I’m a freakin’ loner I’m a freakin’ loner I’m so happy in my skin Alone in a crowd Never speak out loud So worried how it sounds Please don’t get too close I want to be morose Can’t adapt...to it all I’m a freakin’ loner I’m a freakin’ loner I’m so happy in my skin

Gouge Away 03:58
Gouge away, you can gouge away Stay all day if you want to Missy aggravation Some sacred questions, you stroke my locks Some marijuana if you got some Gouge away, you can gouge away Stay all day if you want to Sleeping on your belly You break my arms, you spoon my eyes Been rubbing a bad charm with holy fingers Gouge away, you can gouge away Stay all day if you want to Chained to the pillars A 3 day party, I break the walls And kill us all with holy fingers Gouge away, you can gouge away Stay all day if you want to Gouge away Gouge away Gouge away Gouge away Gouge away

Human Safari 03:06
I’m an elephant With a gun I wouldn’t shoot you cos I’m not a prick I’m a whale With a, a harpoon gun I wouldn’t spear you cos I’m not a prick I’m going on a human safari I’ll take you down I’m going on a human safari I’ll shoot you down myself I’m young seal With a club I wouldn’t beat you cos I’m not a prick I’m a human With a heart I couldn’t love you cos I’m not a prick

about

“Outsiders is sonically a snapshot of where we are now and where we are going. Like most CFD songs, we tend to focus on observations, emotions or stories already told.

Some tracks deal with feeling on the outside of society. Which, by the way, isn’t a bad place to be.

As Bill Hicks once said ‘I get a kick out of being an outsider constantly. It allows me to be creative.’”
