A good day
To watch the world pass you by
Pretend
There?s a friend in the herd
You ache for the real thing
But it?s hard to be sure
A shame
So much love had to die
When all the ones
That bait you come by
And all that matters
Shakes you to your core
Then you remember how it was
Before the clamor of a strange dilemma
Before the flicker of a cold-eyed change
It will never be the same
Regret
Leave...
My own life's a dream I make believe
A veil of blood ties, a worn out elegy
It won?t hurt, it won?t hurt anymore
My dark night, your mood is on the wane
And dawn will set her light to bring me home again
It won?t hurt, it won?t hurt anymore
When half the world lies alone in all their dreams
I?ll see the curtain rise with all tomorrow brings
It won?t hurt, it won?t hurt, it won?t hurt anymore, ...
They lie on the sofa,
He's got his hand inside her dress,
He says he adores her,
The word is she's crazy,
She likes the taste between her legs,
They say she's a goer,
The truth is it bores her,
She's bored, she's bored beyond belief,
There's nothing to do here,
She's been there,
She's done it,
She's seen it all,
It's taken place inside her head,
When no one can go there,
She's saving up for so...
Time stands still
When you fear your hope is gonna fade
Hope doesn't come
'Til you catch your fear and give it away
I'm waiting for the tide
The darkness of this night to fade into the night
And it won't be long, I hope it won't be long
Oh no
Told me they would come
Told me they were gonna take him away
He's the only one
He's the one that makes me feel this way
And don't you criticize
What you...
Sunken sky of silver grey
A shame they took the sun away
I could have done with some
Today the world's a shade of blue
Decidedly because of you
Honey I don't know why
I've seen the sign, the silhouettes
The darker side I know so well
I don't know where I've fallen
I don't know where I've fallen
Only one way to go
I won't miss you
Magic tales and pony tails
And fingernails that should've been c...
Impotence, the price of a dark affair
It's more than a bellyache
There's something alive in here
What do I, what do I care, now that it's over
What do I care I, what do I care, now that it's over
Splinters, shatter my one track mind
I lie on a sea of nails and thorns
Spitting out the same old line
Oh, what do I, what do I care, now that it's over
What do I care I, what do I care, now that it's...
Don?t look up unless you?re leaning on a wall
Or you?ll fall over, you'll fall over
Don?t look down until you?re ready for that fall
And you?ll be flying, you'll be flying
Don?t remember any memory at all
And you?ll be laughing, you'll be laughing
Look up at the big sky mind
It makes you feel so small
Don?t look back at all the things you?ll never know
That never ending, never ending
Don?t ret...
Where and why this journey lies
With faded sighs for every mile, I'm awake
Hunger bleeds in each in everyone of us
We chase our dreams unaware
And I never had the chance to say no
And I never had the chance to say no
Don't walk away
Where's the trust, the one in us?
Entwined, inclined and gladly blind, fade away
Hunger bleeds in each in everyone of us
And now I'm lost
And I never had the chanc...
Stood up at a border street
A souped up strut on swollen feet
My loss remembered incomplete
What memory knows I can't repeat
Offered army soul salvation
Sandwich choice of God and nation
Haloed voices, chiseled faces
Fill my head with empty spaces
Out of the breakdown of the whole
Back to the choices on repeat
Out of a life put on hold
Once again a bulldog baby
Classified as cheap and lazy
Inn...
Lost my ticket at the gate,
And now l'm cross and now I'm late,
The station has a lengthy cue,
And you said I could be with you,
But will you still be waiting,
When I finally get to,
Where you're waiting to.
Met you at the old school gate,
Where you were hanging with your mates,
You flicked your fingers through your hair,
It was chilly for that time of year,
My head went spinning into space,
J...
I've tried so hard, you know I can't do more
It's the turn of the card, it's the close of the door
The lies you told, you know they hurt so deep
So I'll go home and cry myself to sleep
And day after day, you've been treating me bad
Friends come up and say, "Why do you take all that?"
'Cause it's making me moan and it's making me weep
So I'll go home and cry myself to sleep
You play at love lik...
In a taxi chasing for the sun
All around us strangers everyone
With no hope for what they hope for
We could drive all of our tears away
Oh, run, run away
Maybe we could run away
Oh, run, run away
Maybe we could run away, oh
In a taxi ride that ends too soon
The city skyline tries to kick the moon
We have time for what they wait for
We can drive all of our tears away
Oh, run, run away
Maybe we ...
You're a centipede crawling down my spine,
You're the evil world of the nursery rhyme,
You're the drug in which I fly.
Drag me under,
Douse the tracks,
Dressed in anger,
Hit back, hit back, hit back.
You're an open wound that was left to bleed,
You're my only friend,
Don't be cruel to me,
I smash the looking glass against my head,
Let my senses burn as my body bled,
We are immigrants in a frac...
About the time that Daddy left to fight the big war
I saw my first pistol in the general store
In the general store when I was thirteen
Thought it was the finest thing I ever had seen
l asked if I could have one someday when I grew up
Mama dropped a dozen eggs, she really blew up
Really blew up, I didn't understand
Mama said,"The pistol is the devil's right hand"
The devil's right hand
The dev...
I dreamed you were standing
On the edge of the world
And I thought I heard you call out
With one foot on the rock
And one a cloud
Was it just the wind that I heard?
Close your eyes
This world won't stop spinning you know
Close your eyes
Why don't you just let go?
Thousands of people searchin' out there
Most of 'em lookin' for love
But nothing is something
That there's plenty of
In time we'll a...
High above the roof tops
Higher than the milky way
Slipping through the hourglass
Shooting up the desert plain
You are one life older than before
But you can't stop this chill
Now you're falling in slow motion
Though the air is still
If you close your eyes
Then I will take you all the way
Let me close your eyes
And I will take it all the way
You are on the outside
Hands upon the window sill
I ...
In the idle light of a fading day
There?s a past I lost
One I gave away
One I used to know
Caught in the dust
Of a desert plain
Waiting for
The rains to fall
It?s something that I feel, rain falls
Something that I feel when rain falls
More than a world away
It?s always here inside
In all that has overgrown
Almost underground
Could never be all erased
Only lost and found
One I left behind
Caugh...
Like an ordinary, like an ordinary thought
That drifts into a naked eye
How extraordinary, things are happening
Can't stop myself, i'm sinking into broken ice
I've a head that burns
Can I hold my head up
There's a storm around me
Love its violence, a fever rush
A push, a shove inside
Do I wanna do what i do
I wanna loosen the noose
And take a tumble as i roll the dice
I've a head that burns
An...
I know there's a certain amount
To what you're thinking
My hopes never seem to amount
To more than stopping smoking
Everyone knows better
I'll do it anyway
Everyone knows better, oh, yeah
Heroes never seem
To allow for self-expression
Lovers stick around
To allow what they think you're missing
Everyone knows better
I'll do it anyway
Everyone knows better
I'll do it anyway
Looking around to avo...
My love don't despair,
There's no other could compare,
Only lust can come between us,
And I know you wouldn't dare.
Oh, oh yes I know, oh,
Ah ha there's no other,
Only only you can do it better,
Only only you can do it better,
Only you.
My love you're not there,
They're betrayal in the air,
You're a cheater you're a liar,
Smell the perfume in your hair.
Oh heaven knows oh,
Ah ha here's the oth...
As the rain pours down
Washes out my thoughts of you
And the hurling sound
It's wallows up your name
Iconoclast, the hidden past you left before you came
You charmed my darkest hour
It's close again and things are not the same
I remember you, you're the one who came
Crawling from the past, like a falling flame
Did you hold it down, or give yourself away
Did you hold it back, or open up the gat...
Is it wrong to be alone?
An adventure of my own
A celebration of myself and me
Discovering what I can be
The half a couple fantasy
Oh, luck is on my side
I celebrate my life
Don't try to come
Don't pin me down with vows and flowers
I was brought up, I've been told
That a husband is the goal
What connotations in these loaded words
A spinster and a bachelor
I am whole all by myself
I don't need ...
What a nice surprise and have I spoilt your appetite?
And I told you once, I told you once
So let me tell you twice, I wanted to say
A toast to emotion
Raise your glasses high and turn them this way
A balance of hormones that makes you feel like no one else
Makes you just the sane
Here's to love, here's to hate
Here's to everything that makes me realise
This is a four letter word
Here's to fea...
Let the fear dislocate
Lest we frown upon the female aggressor
Makes no sense, goes against the gender
Let her anger curse the years of oppression
Blame the mother, sell the sister before she blows you away
Won't someone give her a gun, won't someone?
Won't someone give her a gun, won't someone?
In a lifetime full of changes
A woman's group is still a second-class convention
Look around who ha...
Here it comes the fool's parade
Another clueless masquerade
And they?re way too slow, a waste of space
Yes, they?re way too slow, get out of my way
Go away
In the way, in the way, in the way
In my way
In my way, in my way, in my way
Go away
Go away, in the way, in the way, oh
Here we go on a suckers ride
Hearts and minds are paralyzed
And they?re way too stupid, they?ll be just fine
Yes, they?...
Come slip inside,
Take a chair,
The final performance is almost here,
So it's time to go, l'll close the show,
The death of an actor who no one knows.
Now that the show is over,
Will I belong to you,
Now that the show is over,
Will I be, will I be, will I be,
On God's guest list.
The worm inside, the worm inside,
Culled from a lifetime of standing by,
Oh I followed all the golden rules,
Head l...
Satellites fall away
Every time I close my eyes
The sum of my own denial
Echoes for a thousand miles
Gravity pulls
Shadows on the runway
Sent to battle over me
Layers in reality
I?ll find an open road
Sleep out on the back seat
I need to see the sky
The color of the blue sea
I could be gone a while
We have come a long way
Further than our reason lies
All that still survives
Is stranger than we...
I wanna do great things
I don't wanna compromise
I wanna know what life is
I wanna know everything
I wanna do great things
I don't wanna compromise
I wanna know what love is
Is it something I do to myself?
All is fair in love and war
Or so they say and so the saying goes
But I've seen more broken hearts
Than you can count the bullets in a war
Oh, what do I know?
There's gotta be so much I don'...
Save your point of view
For the manic charm that he puts you through
When he wears your pearls, your ruby dress
And he looks so good with his sunken chest
There's a certain charm
To the pretty boy that is on my arm
He's my double friend, a boy and a girl
when he says:
Paint my face, lick your mouth
Fake a yawn and we'll go out and glow
We're on our way to somewhere in particular
I'll take you ...
It's the time of the scene,
They radiate a different heat,
Till the last big flame is stamped upon,
Along comes another, along comes another.
All stand up now, here comes the scene,
All stand up now, here comes the scene.
It's the turn of the clowns,
Let's build it up and knock it back down,
We could tear it up and start it all over,
Let's prey upon another,
Let's pray upon another.
All stand ...
My very ordinary sanguinary thoughts
Make you feel insecure
I don't care any more
Did my opinions kill your reputation
Ripped your elegant plans
That's the way that i am
Darling, your lonely nights
Have turned into lonely days
I just wanna know
Are you scared of the real thing
Are you searching for sympathy
Walking a wire on your own
Running round in syharitic circles
But the ghosts in your pa...
What I tell is a different story
What I have, I take, then give it all away
So, if you'd like to come this way
Then help me climb the walls that stand before me
I wanna know, if this is just a game?
Can anybody play?
Can everybody win?
Can you believe it?
I may be lost, I may be blind
I may be cursing most of the time but it's half the fun
And in this world we spin and shout
We want it all, we...
Stealing words along the silent smiles,
Sleepy town held me down,
waved good-bye,
World unfolds, seashore swirl,
horizon's the same,
Destiny breeds a life of isolation,
Give to me the bitter flesh of inspiration,
Watch me future seed a gift from god.
I don't belong here,
I don't belong here,
What I've said and done build a world in my arms.
Lay down your guns,
Lay down your sky,
We are dreamer...
Everybody's staring at my
Everybody's out to catch my eye
I've gotta think it over
I've gotta think it over
Everybody's got somebody to
All I wanted was a body to hide
I've gotta think it over
I've gotta think it over
I'm not a saint
I'm not a saint
I'm not a saint
I'm not a saint
Dog is barking, head is hurting
Car is chasing, hands are dirty
I've gotta think it over
I've gotta think it over
...
In the year when your bicycle broke
You were crying in the yard
But the world was a glorious game
New adventures stole your heart
It will come, it will go
But you hold on to what you know
You play your part
You play your part
You only full for what you really want to
In the year when the future was lost
You were fighting in the class
Headed west with your wits and your snarl
Left your parents ...
I think you ought to know
I think we've lost control dear
Whatever turned you on
You put it up your nose dear
And though the feeling was sublime
I think we're running out of time
'Cause when you found it, you'd fix it
Then lose it and then you'd go
Will you be long, will you be long dear
Will you be long, I'm waiting
No sleep at all, carry me home
No sleep at all, carry me home
Won't you take ...
Shattered glass, shooting stars, silver sparks
Come and shine on me
Take your time, don't hurry baby
Break a smile, when you come to me
I'm up on a high
Catch me if you fall
Up on a high
Your love fills me like a waterfall
Iris art, skin on skin, let me in
Take a ride with me
Take a trip, don't worry, baby
Love the way we satisfy a need
I'm up on a high
Catch me if you fall
Up on a high
Catch ...
Sugar smile savvy, the king of the kerb
Got a temper in the style of a bomb
Got his friends in his pocket or safe behind bars
All the local boys know what he?s done
He turns it on
He turns it on
He turns it on
Same boys doin' it for themselves
There?s somebody out there doin' it for you
Safe white, you?re paying out for your health
They?re the kings of the kerb
And everybody knows what they?re...
Lustra, there's something hiding
Behind your immaculate smile
You have always known, so let it out
Lustra, I fell your anger
Swell the radical in your style, girl
Take the cross you bear and throw it out
She's coming up, coming up
Breathe it in and let it out
Let it go, be yourself, take a shot
It's what you've always known now
You've always known now what you waiting for
Lustra, it's gonna ta...
In and out of prison
Sitting in a pit of a cell
Lick the blood of the wall
Razor blade love letter hell
So, you left me there
Didn?t care that they?d break down the door
Were you really late
Did you run away, left me to be caught
Where are you now?
Where are you now?
You?re supposed to be a friend of mine
You?re supposed to be a friend of mine, ohh
In and out of trouble
Pushed in a school full...
Inside it harbors
Desire bruises my skin
So near I?m hungry
I?d like to have more
In control, I?ve lost it
I?d like to try it again
It warms inside me
We?re moving one step closer each time
There?s nobody like you
Nobody like you
Nobody like you
Nobody like you anyway, oh anyway
There?s nobody like you
Nobody like you
Nobody can touch you
Nobody like you anyway, oh anyway
Everyone knows
We fal...
I get it on when I lay my fingers on, let me drift away
Take me to a place I have known before
Let me hear the words you know I adore
Let me slip away to a world I know
When you sing
Oh, oh, oh, oh, take me
I am a slave to your charms
Turn it on
And I wanna celebrate, I can hear your song
Rushing through my veins, it surrounds me now
Touching me inside, I can ride the sound
When you sing
Oh, o...
Boy I wanna know, you like a brother,
Boy I want the hole in you as well,
Boy you know you move, you're like no other,
Saving all that sweet ass for myself.
And it goes on and on, on and on,
All because of you,
And the reason's no reason,
It's in your lips, your legs, your body.
Boy you've got the source, you've got the answers,
Boy I wonder best who was well,
And it goes on and on, on and on,...
Amber leaves were falling,
Walls in dresses of grafiti,
The sky was a broken blue,
Take the desires of a madman,
With the wishes of a fool,
Equals me and you.
Time and time again I've drowned in my own desires,
Don't know why.
I jump in the ocean,
Land on a higher ground,
Stripped of a real emotion,
I'm one of the lost and found.
Breathing rocks deep underwater,
Tangled secrets sleep forgotten...
She leaves her brains at the door
She drops her guts on the floor
She only listens out for everyday noises
She very calmly ignores
The little things she abhors
She made her mind up to be tidy
It could change, it will never, it could change, it will never
It could change, it will never, it could change, it will never
It could change, oh
He keeps his fingernails neat
He cleans the car once a wee...
In all day, out all night
You and I see the sights in paradise
Very nice, take me home, do it 'til your hear aches
And then you'll know my mind
And if I stay, I'd only drive you mad
I'm not that stable, I'm not so right in a way
I find myself at odds wanting to be here
Never arrive
Love and peace, I'll at ease with naked greed
Hunger feeding, aim to please, what a teaser
Maybe I owe it to my o...
What's it all about? Ah, ha, ha
Spent my whole life praying for a chance to be here
And things are not the same as expected
It's been a hard time
Oh, to be wrong
There's no heaven in the sky, have you ever?
Well, here's your chance and you can't tell me
This is wrong, there's no heaven in the sky
Have you ever? Have you ever? Have you ever
Cared to scream?
First you steal my breath, ha, ha, ha...
I deny feeling inside for a long time,
and now I realize there are part of everyone,
like a sleeping hitler,
There's strength of destruction,
I thought part of me,
when pain is the opium.
But it's much too late to be judged,
How I wish I was blindly,
I wish I was blindly,
I wish I was blindly,
blindly loved.
For desire,
carry the cross of obsession,
a tumbling of launch,
I naturally poisoned,
...
Now if my eyes don't show you,
Cause they're fueled with fire,
And my pride, it builds a barrier,
As the flames are growing high,
And the future is a fugitive,
To my everyday desires,
And all I want is everything,
And more,
La di da di da di da di da da,
I'm so la di da.
I close my eyes,
I shut my mouth,
I close my eyes,
I shut my mouth,
La di da di da da da,
La di da di da da da da.
Now if yo...
Once in a while,
I'll be the figure on the sleeve, on the sleeve,
Is there anyone who understands me?,
Oh anyone anyone anyone more than you,
I've played blind men's games for a vision,
Just to see, just to see, just to see how low,
Would you like to see how low I go?,
Won't you see how low I go?.
Now that it's over I'm left on the floor,
Cold and I'm sober,
It is worse than before,
And I hate...
You should have been a rambler, a counterfeit gambler
Would you steal the sunflowers for me?
I see you've been fighting with Molotov writing
They tried to drag you under, I see
Did they try to tell you you're strange?
Did they try to push you away?
Hold on
Feed the fire, fan the flame
Till the world remembers your name
Till you found of the sight what you see
Feed the fire, fan the flame
Till ...
All that I put on
Hid behind a mask way too long
The part of me that has to run
Always found the path to your door
I need you to lean upon
Despite my claims of never letting on
I find myself strangely drawn
All that life becomes
Rarely dared to ask was I wrong?
I?d hit upon a perfect plan
Only to denounce who I am
I need you to lean upon
Despite my claims of never letting on
I find myself stra...
See that boy,
He's got the song of the century,
He's got the face that was meant to be,
On the covers of lavishing height.
Watch that girl,
Moves like the vamp on the disco floor,
Curses the crap that has gone before,
Makes me happy,
Not very bright.
Any offers? Any offers? Any resale?,
Any offers? Any offers? Any resale?,
Any of none.
New turn,
Talent is all that we understand,
Gullible suits...
Now the fire has gone away
I face you with a broken pen
And sympathy and gratitude dissolve into disarray
I relied, undisguised, followed all, you'd say
Was your weakness momentary
You're devotion temporary?
It's a question of taste
Like a slap in the face
Let the vain do what they do
Did you laugh at my innocence?
Custom made but gone astray
Erase you with a pencil head
I'm bulletproof now I ...
It is not too late to carry on
So you've made mistakes
And here's another one
Oh, but you deserve another chance
Chase it round until you face yourself
The world is flat and we are insane
And we have fallen off again
It really helps to know the way
What if you take more than you deserve?
What if you give all and you get nothing back?
Sell your soul not your stereo
Take your favorite songs and ...
I keep an open invitation
To a world of isolation
It?s an old right
I found a home in hibernation
Lost the self in preservation
Built the walls high
I joke about the bad times
To get me thru the good times
About all those long nights
I go wading through
Keep running down a one way
Giving all for a brand new day
But now I?m all out, nothing to lose
Nothing to lose, nothing to save
From a moment...
Today I can't seem to find what I'm searching for
Oh well, maybe tomorrow
I wait, devious thoughts but no inspiration at all
I have shut down
Generations lost in the haze of these apathy days
When everyone falls
Segregation, someone to blame
But the problems remain when everyone falls
Somewhere looking for shelter
I still can't find myself, I am alone
Aware, is it my color or culture, who can ...
Today I can't seem to find what I'm searching for
Oh well, maybe tomorrow
I wait, devious thoughts but no inspiration at all
I have shut down
Generations lost in the haze of these apathy days
When everyone falls
Segregation, someone to blame
But the problems remain when everyone falls
Somewhere looking for shelter
I still can't find myself, I am alone
Aware, is it my color or culture, who can ...
When the city comes alive,
When the debonaire are like fire-flies,
See the social satire lives,
See them dance on their beauty at the wheel,
Wonder how it feels,
Wonder how it feels to be you.
Oh little venus,
Dressed up to tease us,
Locked in the room upstairs,
She's combing her hair,
Oh little venus,
Smells of the sweetest,
Dreams of his thunder thighs coming around,
Oh, oh.
In the honey-coa...
I know the way the west wind blows,
The way temptation grows,
The way that fortunes flow.
La la la la la.
Wired on emotions,
They don't understand,
But we know better,
I know the way the preachers pray,
And who the angels save,
And where the devil plays.
La la la la la.
Wired on emotions,
They don't understand,
But we know better,
High from motions and we pave the way,
And we know where we wan...
Am I anyone to ease the way?
You want inner calm, I deviate
I'm not what you want to be, I'm not the same
Can't live in doubt, with or without finding out
And here it ends
I've given all that I really want
And if I reap what I sow
Maybe I'm not the only one
While I'm wide awake this to you I dedicate
Learn to read between the words
I hope you get what you deserve
Am I the one to compromise?
Ca...
I wanna get wired on something new
I wanna get high on something
I wanna get wired on something new
Every wide open space
It's the gaping holes that get to you
They frighten you
An echo of your emptiness
Every lie that you've fed
You can kiss my open spaces
I am safe from you
I'm better now, I'm better now
I wanna get wired on something new
I wanna get high on something
I wanna get wired on so...
Here and now, we are alone
Time, she will hold her breath
Only the worms and angels
Know our names
But they have not found us
Although they surround us
I feel the distance closing
Come along, for you and I know
We've lived through the centuries
We've ridden the darkest horses
All our lives
We hunted our enemies
We fought with a fallacy
It's time we were all God's children
Far away, the galaxie...
Life is easy, where you?re coming from
You take what pleases and you turn it on
Born from a wayward style that?s running wild
You?re the stranger that was ever known
You know I was living on doubts
You know I was living on odds
You?re my favorite
You started a fire
In the heart of a wasted life
I?ve got something to burn
Anytime, anyway you like
Take me closer than I've ever been
Paint a canva...
