Hangman 04:30
Close your eyes and all I see is your dark eyes gleaming up at me. Something special or so you say till you turned your back and walked away I'm waiting on someone to fill in all these blanks Spaces keeping me down, keeping me hang around To take all of these un-spelt letters and make something whole But some words only you know What did you mean to me, proclaiming that I was free When you lay me down in my tears to drown What did you mean to me proclaiming that I was free Everybody stand back, laugh at me And take a look at all I can be Close your eyes and all I see is your dark eyes gleaming up at me. Something special or so you say till you turned your back and walked away These guessing games you play are a mystery to me And everything you try and discover is just to cover up your controversy What did you mean to me, proclaiming that I was free When you lay me down in my tears to drown What did you mean to me proclaiming that I was free Now everybody just take a damn second look And take a leaf out of my written book Everybody stand back, laugh at me And take a look at all I can be Now everybody just take a damn second look And take a leaf out of my written book I'm wait for your love, I'm waiting for your love So come and cut me down I'm wait for your love, I'm waiting for your love So come and cut me down

Nightlife 03:37
Saturday night and I'm wading into town I'm going to a gig of a friend I know I don't care about the nu metal nobodies playing Cause I've got no where else to go This is my home this where I belong And there's no place I'd rather be Even if I'd be doing a million other things This is the night life for me And I know that somewhere down the road There'll be local rebels in hand They'll be ramming it in like there 'aint no tomorrow Waking up, don't even understant Lose yourself in a familiar cast of mirrors Try to reflect differently Even if I'd be doing a million other things This is the night life for me I'm sorry, hey babe, I think it's time to go You're past your expiry date, off the shelves now take a stroll And as you wander aimlessly through narrow streets, places you've never been You're happy go lucky And everything just goes your way This whole night life of mine's such a pain As I dine with fortune and fame Cause this whole night life's got all to gain Cause all they ponces are just to tame

about

As the band's first formal release, we feel Hangman wholly represents what we hope to achieve as Room16. Recorded at the beginning of 2011 between a flurry of gigs, this single captures the experiences we've had playing together for the last three years and our excitement for the year ahead. Thank you for listening!
