Apology for the loss of subtitles for 95 seconds

# And when the fans # You won't find him

# You won't ever find him being unfaithful

# You will find You will find him next to me

# You won't find him trying to change the devil

# For money fame power out of grief

# You won't ever find him where the rest go

# You will find him Find him next to me

# Next to me, ooh Next to me, ooh

# Next to me, ooh

# You will find him You'll find him next to me

# You will find him You'll find him next to me

# When the end has come and buildings falling down fast

# I know there's no need for me to panic

# Cos I'll find him I'll find him next to me

# When the skies are grey and all the doors are closing

# And the rising pressure makes it hard to breathe

# All I need is a helping hand to stop the tears from falling

# I will find him Will find him next to me

# Next to me, oo-ooh Next to me oo-ooh

# Next to me oo-ooh

# You will find him You'll find him next to me

# I wanna be drunk when I wake up On the right side of the wrong bed

# And never an excuse I made up Tell you the truth I

# What didn't kill me It never made me stronger at all

# Love will scar your make-up Lip sticks to me, so now I maybe

# Lean back there I'm sat here wishing I was sober

# I know I'll never hold you like I used to

# But a house gets cold when you cut the heating

# Without you to hold I'll be freezing

# Can't rely on my heart to beat in

# Cos you take parts of it every evening

# Take words out of my mouth Just from breathing

# Replace with phrases like "When you leaving me?"

# Should I? Should I?

# Maybe I'll get drunk again

# I'll be drunk again

# I'll be drunk again

# To feel a little love

# I wanna hold your heart in both hands

# Not watch it fizzle at the bottom of a Coke can

# And I got no plans for the weekend

# So should we speak then? Keep it between friends?

# Though I know you'll never love me like you used to

# There may be other people like us

# Who see the flicker of a clipper when they light up

# Flames just create us but burns don't heal like before

# And you don't hold me any more

# On cold days Cold plays out like the band's name

# I know I can't heal things with a handshake

# You know I can change as I began saying

# You cut me wide open like landscape

# Open bottles of beer but never champagne

# To applaud you with The sound that my hands make

# Should I? Should I?

# Maybe I'll get drunk again

# I'll be drunk again

# I'll be drunk again

# To feel a little love

# All by myself, I'm here again

# All by myself You know I'll never change

# All by myself

# All by myself I'm just drunk again

# I'll be drunk again

# I'll be drunk again

# To feel a little love. #

# I'll be drunk again

# I'll be drunk again

# To feel a little love. #

You

You get

You get to

You get to Hackney by the 38 bus if you are coming from Piccadilly, the

253 from Stamford Hill. Straight from Stratford to Dalston.

Throughout history it's been known for being a bit edgy. East London

for me is very hard-working, very working class. It's not the most

glamorous part of the world to live It's a melting pot of different

races, creeds and colours. Sning the key for me being brought up in

Hackney is I saw the whole world on my street. There were mauritians,

next door was sib rot, Chinese -- Cypriot, Chinese, everything.

Hackney is at the centre of multiculturalism. There is

definitely lingo. I come from East London first and it travels

elsewhere. Wa'gwaan which is what's happening. Yol. Apples and paers,

stairs. -- pears, stairs. It has a natural vibe. A lot of creativity,

a lot of artistic value in the area. I would say Hackney has influenced

my music and what I talk about, because a lot of what I talk about

are my experiences. The heart-beat of music in London was East London.

I'm sure everywhere else will say the same, but we knew. We had that

Let's all go on an urban safari That means council-housed

On second thoughts, don't It's too late

He's got some front, ain't we all? What's politics, ain't it all?

All year round, all in all Just another brick in the wall

Get away with murder in the schools

Use four-letter swear words cos we're cool

We're all drinkers, drug takers

Every single one of us burns the herb

Keep on believing what you read in the papers

Council estate kids Scum of the earth

Think you know how life on a council estate is

From everything you've ever read about it or heard

Well, it's all true So stay where you're safest

There's no need to step foot out the burbs

Truth is here, we're all disturbed We cheat and lie, it's so absurd

Feed the fear That's what we've learned

Fuel the fire Let it burn

Oi! I said oi!

What you looking at You little rich boy?

We're poor round here Run home and lock your door

Don't come round here no more You could get robbed for

Real Because my manor's ill

My manor's ill For real

Yeah, you know my manor's ill My manor's ill!

You could get lost in this concrete jungle

New builds keep springing up outta nowhere

Take the wrong turn down a one-way junction

Find yourself in the hood Nobody goes there

We got an eco-friendly government They preserve our natural habitat

Built an entire Olympic village

Around where we live without pulling down any flats

Give us free money and we don't pay any tax

NHS healthcare, yes please Many thanks

People get stabbed round here There's many shanks

Nice knowing someone's got our backs when we get attacked

Don't bloody give me that I'll lose my temper

Who closed down the community centre?

I killed time there Used to be a member

What will I do now till September?

School's out, rules out Get your bloody tools out

London's burning I predict a riot

Fall in, fall out Who knows what it's all about

What did that chief say? Something 'bout the Kaisers

Kids on the street, no They never miss a beat

Never miss a cheap thrill when it comes their way

Let's go looting No, not Luton

The high street's closer Cover your face

And if we see any rich kids on the way

We'll make 'em wish they stayed inside

There's a charge for congestion Everybody's gotta pay

Do what Boris does, rob them blind

Oi! I said oi!

What you looking at You little rich boy?

We're poor round here Run home and lock your door

Don't come round here no more You could get robbed for

Real Because my manor's ill

My manor's ill For real

Yeah, you know my manor's ill My manor's ill!

Oi, oi, oi, oi

We've had it with you politicians Oi, oi, oi, oi

You bloody rich kids never listen Oi, oi, oi, oi

There's no such thing as broken Britain Oi, oi, oi, oi

We're just bloody broke in Britain Oi, oi, oi, oi

What needs fixing is the system Not shop windows down in Brixton

Riots on the television You can't put us all in prison

Oi! I said oi!

What you looking at You little rich boy?

We're poor round here Run home and lock your door

Don't come round here no more You could get robbed for

Real Because my manor's ill

My manor's ill For real

Yeah, you know my manor's ill My manor's ill!

# Hot sand on toes cold sand in sleeping bags

# I've come to know that memories Were the best things you ever had

# The summer shone beat down on bony backs

# So far from home where the ocean stood

# Down dust and pine cone tracks

# We slept like dogs down by the fireside

# Awoke to the fog all around us The boom of summer time

# We stood

# Steady as the stars in the woods

# So happy-hearted

# And the warmth rang true inside these bones

# As the old pine fell we sang

# Just to bless the morning

# Hot sand on toes cold sand in sleeping bags

# I've come to know the friends around you

# Are all you'll always have

# Smoke in my lungs or the echoed stone

# Careless and young free as the birds that fly

# With weightless souls now

# We stood

# Steady as the stars in the woods

# So happy-hearted

# And the warmth rang true inside these bones

# We stood

# Steady as the stars in the woods

# So happy-hearted

# And the warmth rang true inside these bones

# As the old pine fell we sang

# Just to bless the morning

# Guarantee we'll be feelin' all right

# Here to relive # And all of the ghouls

# But I like to keep some things to myself

# I like to keep my issues drawn

# It's always darkest before the dawn

# And I've been a fool and I've been blind

# I can never leave the past behind

# I can see no way, I can see no way

# I'm always dragging that horse around

# All of these questions Such a mournful sound

# Tonight I'm gonna bury that horse in the ground

# Cos I like to keep my issues drawn

# It's always darkest before the dawn

# Shake it out, shake it out

# Shake it out, shake it out Oh, woah!

# Shake it out, shake it out

# Shake it out, shake it out Oh, woah!

# So shake him off, oh, woah!

# And I am done with my graceless heart

# So tonight I'm gonna cut it out and then restart

# I like to keep my issues drawn

# It's always darkest before the dawn

# Shake it out, shake it out

# Shake it out, shake it out Oh, woah!

# And it's hard to dance with a devil on your back

# So shake him off, oh, woah

# And it's hard to dance with the devil on your back

# Shake it out

# Given half the chance would I take any of it back?

# Shake it out

# It's a fine romance but it's left me so undone

# Shake it out

# It's always darkest before the dawn

# Shake it out

# Oh, woah, oh, woah...

# And I'm damned if I do and I'm damned if I don't

# So here's to drinks in the dark at the end of my rope

# And I'm ready to suffer and I'm ready to hope

# It's a shot in the dark aimed right at my throat

# Cos looking for heaven Found a devil in me

# Looking for heaven Found a devil in me

# But what the hell I'm gonna let it happen to me

# Shake it out, shake it out
