music
its always been how i cope with shit
good and bad
always will be





I miss you
but I haven't met you yet
So special
but I it hasn't happen yet
You are gorgeous
but I haven't met you yet
I remember
but it hasn't happened yet

And if you believe in dreams
or what is more important
that a dream can come true
I will meet you

I was peaking
but it hasn't happened yet
I haven't been given
my best souvenir
I miss you
but I haven't met you yet
I know your habits
but wouldn't I recognize you yet

And if you believe in dreams
or what is more important
that a dream can come true
Ohhh Ahhh Ah Ah
I miss you

I'm so impatient
I can't stand the way it's
When will i get my cuddle?
Who are you?

I know by now that you'll arrive
by the time I stop waiting

I miss you!

-----


I may not always love you
But long as there are stars above you
You never need to doubt it
I'll make you so sure about it

God only knows what I'd be without you

If you should ever leave me
Though life would still go on believe me
The world could show nothing to me
So what good would living do me

God only knows what I'd be without you

God only knows what I'd be without you

If you should ever leave me
Well life would still go on believe me
The world could show nothing to me
So what good would living do me

God only knows what I'd be without you
God only knows what I'd be without you
God only knows
God only knows what I'd be without you
God only knows what I'd be without you
God only knows
God only knows what I'd be without you
God only knows what I'd be without you
God only knows
God only knows what I'd be without you
God only knows what I'd be without you
God only knows
God only knows what I'd be without you
God only knows what I'd be without you
God only knows
God only knows what I'd be without you
God only knows what I'd be without you
God only knows
God only knows what I'd be without you

I'm gonna pull you in close
gonna wrap you up tight
gonna play with the braids that you came here with tonight
I'm gonna hold your face, and toast the snow that fell

Because friends don't waste wine, when there's words to sell

I feel like love is in the kitchen with a culinary eye
I think he's making something special
And I'm smart enough to try
If you don't trust yourself for at least one minute each day,
Well you should trust in this, girl, cuz loving is coming our way.

If you can fix me up, girl, we'll go a long way
If you can fix me up, girl, we'll go a long way.

(Take my love in real small doses.)

I will stand by all this drinking if it helps me through these days
It takes a long time just to get this all straight.
I'll showcase on Route 7 when I find the right place
It takes a long time just to get this all straight
In my mind, this is my free-time
Cuz friends don't waste wine when there's words to sell.

(Take my love in real small doses)

I will stand by all this drinking if it helps me through these days
I've spent a long time corresponding in my own way.
I'll showcase on Route 7 when I find the right place
But it takes a long time just to get this all straight
In my mind, this is my free time...

To let it all away
Spend it all today
Spend it all today
It took time then I found you.

--------------------


Since I met you
this small town hasn't got room
for my big feelings,

violently happy
'cause I love you,
violently happy
but you're not here

violently happy
come calm me down
before i get into trouble

I tip-toe down to the shore,
stand by the ocean-
make it roar at me
and I roar back,

violently happy
'cause I love you,
violently happy
but you're not here

violently happy
overemotional
violently happy
I'll get into trouble
real soon
if you don't get here
baby!

violently happy
'cause I love you
violently happy
I'm aiming too high
violently happy
it will get me into trouble
violently happy
i'm driving my car
too fast
with ecstatic music on

violently happy
I'm getting too drunk
violently happy
I'm daring people
to jump off roofs with me

only you
can clam me down
I'm aiming too high

Soothe me...


--------------------


I know a place
Where I can go
When I'm alone
Into your arms
Whoa
Into your arms
I can go
I know a place
That's safe and warm
From the crowd
Into your arms
Whoa
Into your arms
I can go
And If I should fall
I know I won't be alone
Be alone anymore


--------------------


I'll sing it one last time for you
Then we really have to go
You've been the only thing that's right
In all I've done.

And I can barely look at you
But every single time I do
I know we'll make it anywhere
Away from here

Light up, Light up
As if you have a choice
Even if you cannot hear my voice
I'll be right beside you dear

Louder, louder
And we'll run for our lives
I can hardly speak I understand
Why you can't raise your voice to say

To think I might not see those eyes
It makes it so hard not to cry
And as we say our long goodbyes
I nearly do.

Light up, light up
As if you have a choice
Even if you cannot hear my voice
I'll be right beside you dear

Louder, louder
And we'll run for our lives
I can hardly speak I understand
Why you can't raise your voice to say

Slower, slower
We don't have time for that
All I want is to find an easier way
To get out of our little heads

Have heart my dear
We're bound to be afraid
Even if it's just for a few days
Making up for all this mess.

Light up, light up
As if you have a choice
Even if you cannot hear my voice
I'll be right beside you dear.

--------------------


Looking out the door I see the rain fall upon the funeral mourners
Parading in a wake of sad relations as their shoes fill up with water
And maybe I'm too young
To keep good love from going wrong
But tonight you're on my mind so (you'll never know)

I'm broken down and hungry for your love
With no way to feed it
Where are you tonight? Child, you know how much I need it
Too young to hold on and too old to just break free and run

Sometimes a man gets carried away
When he feels like he should be having his fun
And much too blind to see the damage he's done
Sometimes a man must awake to find that, really,
He has no one...

So I'll wait for you... And I'll burn
Will I ever see your sweet return, oh, or will I ever learn
Lover, you should've come over
Cause it's not too late

Lonely is the room the bed is made
The open window lets the rain in
Burning in the corner is the only one who dreams he had you with him
My body turns and yearns for a sleep that wont ever come
It's never over, my kingdom for a kiss upon her shoulder
It's never over, all my riches for her smiles when I slept so soft against her...
It's never over, all my blood for the sweetness of her laughter
It's never over, she is the tear that hangs inside my soul forever
Maybe I'm too young to keep good love from going wrong
Oh... Lover, you should've come over... 'Cause it's not too late...


--------------------


I always thought we'd be together
And that our love could not be better
Well with no warning you were gone
I still don't know what went wrong
You don't know what I've been through
Just want to put my love in you

No more nights
of blood & fire

All those special memories
Now I bleed for you - burn for me
Perhaps I was just dreaming
When I think these things had real meaning
You don't know what I've been through
Just want to put my love in you

Love eternal
Lust infernal
Bleeding, Burning
Needing, yearning

I see your face in every flame
With no answers I have only myself to blame
Of all the women I have know - they're not you
I'd rather be alone

No more nights
of blood & fire

--------------------


Way to fight
You never threatened to stop breathing
Countless times
When I wouldn't make a sound
To baby eyes
They whole thing is a fading senseless blur
Of concern
But I'm letting go of her

I don't know why it is
Isn't it obvious to me?
Its sympathy
I'm sure that after this
You don't fear anything at all
Resembling

All her might
Was it the force behind the family?
Bound and tied
Keep the bottle down
To our surprise
Suspect you had discipline or nerve
To convert
I just didn't think it'd work

I don't know why it is
Isn't it obvious to me?
Its sympathy
I'm sure that after this
You don't fear anything at all
Resembling

For what we give to this
What challenges persist
What battles we must fight
For what we give to this
A promise to resist
Stand with all your might

I don't know why it is
Isn't it obvious to me?
Its sympathy
I'm sure that after this
You don't feel anything at all
Resembling


--------------------


This is what you see
when you look in my direction:
Incandescent corsets draw eyes tight, like wires,
this is how it feels, calling out
but no one even hears
the signals that we send over the air
(over the air, over the air, over the air)

When you say my name,
I want to split it from your lips
And hide like whispers in the rain
When you say my name
I want to stop it in your lungs
And collect all of your blood to put in the radio

Is this how it feels when you don't even fit into your own skin?
And it's getting tighter,
Everyday I'm getting smaller
If I keep holding my breathe I'm going to disappear

When you say my name,
I want to split it from your lips
And hide like whispers in the rain
When you say my name
I want to stop it in your lungs
And collect all of your blood to put in the radio

There's nowhere to hide
They stole the love from our lives
And put the sex on the radio
There's nowhere to hide
They stole the love from our lives
And put the sex on...

If I keep holding my breath all of this will fade away
If you keep driving we'll be lying in the wreck
Changing the shape, folding like an envelope
to keep each other in
Shattered glass, broken looks and
Mascara gets washed away by windshield wiper blades,

When you say my name,
I want to split it from your lips
And hide like whispers in the rain
When you say my name
I want to stop it in your lungs
And collect all of your blood to put in the radio

Theres nowhere to hide
They stole the love from our lives
And put the sex on the radio
Theres nowhere to hide
They stole the love from our lives
And put the sex on the radio

Thats where we hide
The love and lies and sex on the radio

Your lipstick his collar dont bother angel,
I know exactly what goes on

When everything you'll get is
everything that you've wanted, princess
Well which would you prefer
My finger on the trigger, or
(me face down, down across your floor)
Me face down, down across your floor
(me face down, down across your floor)
Well just so long as this thing's loaded

And will you tell all your friends
you've got your gun to my head
This all was only wishful thinkin,
this all was only wishful thinkin
And will you tell all your friends
you've got your gun to my head
This all was only wishful thinkin,
this all was only wishful thinkin
let's go...

Don't bother trying to explain Angel
I know exactly what goes on when you're on and
How about I'm outside of your window
How about I'm outside of your window
Watchin him keep the details covered
You're such a sucker (you're such a sucker)
for a sweet talker

And will you tell all your friends
you've got your gun to my head
This all was only wishful thinkin,
this all was only wishful thinkin
(the only thing I regret is that I, I never let you hold me back)
And will you tell all your friends
you've got your gun to my head
This all was only wishful thinkin,
this all was only wishful thinkin

Hoping for the best just hoping nothing happens
A thousand clever lines unread on clever napkins
I will never ask if you don't ever tell me
I know you well enough to know you never loved me
(why can't i feel anything from anyone other than you)
Hoping for the best just hoping nothing happens
A thousand clever lines unread on clever napkins
I will never ask if you don't ever tell me
I know you well enough to know you never loved me
(why can't i feel anything from anyone other than you)
Hoping for the best just hoping nothing happens
A thousand clever lines unread on clever napkins
I will never ask if you don't ever tell me
I know you well enough to know...

And all of this was all your fault
And all of this

(I stay jealous)
I stay wrecked and jealous for this,
for this simple reason, I
just need to keep you in mind
as something larger than life
(she'll destroy us all before she's through
and find a way to blame somebody else)
I stay wrecked and jealous for this,
for this simple reason, I
just need to keep you in mind
as something larger than life
(she'll destroy us all before she's through
and find a way to blame somebody else)
I stay wrecked and jealous for this,
for this simple reason, I
just need to keep you in mind
as something larger than life!

--------------------


She said, Don't...don't let it go to your head.
Boys like you are a dime a dozen,
Boys like you are a dime a dozen.
She said...You're a touch over-rated.
You're a lush, and I hate it.
But these grass stains on my knees,
They won't mean a thing

And all I need to know is that I'm something you'll be missin'
Well, maybe I should hate you for this
Never really did ever quite get that far
Maybe I should hate you for this
Never really did ever quite get that..

I'd never lie to you
Unless I had to, I'll do what I got to
Unless I had to, I'll do what I got to
The truth...is you could slit my throat
And with my one last gasping breath
I'd apologize for bleeding on your shirt

Cuz I'm a wishful thinker with the worst intentions
This'll be the last chance you'll get to drop my name
Cuz I'm a wishful thinker with the worst intentions
This'll be the last time you'll get to drop my name

If I'm just bad news, then you're a liar
If I'm just bad news, then you're a liar
If I'm just bad news, then you're a liar
If I'm just bad news, then you're a liar
Maybe I should hate you for this
Maybe I should hate you for this

--------------------


I'm missing your bed
I never sleep
Avoiding the spots where we'd have to speak,
And this bottle of beast
Is taking me home

I'm cuddling close
To blankets and sheets
But you're not alone, and you're not discreet
Make sure I know who's taking you home.

I'm reading your note over again
And there's not a word that I comprehend,
Except when you signed it
I will love you always and forever

Well as for now I'm gonna hear the saddest songs
And sit alone and wonder
How you're making out
But as for me, I wish that I was anywhere, with anyone
Making out.

I'm missing your laugh
How did it break?
And when did your eyes begin to look fake?
I hope you're as happy as you're pretending.

I'm cuddling close
To blankets and sheets
and I am alone
In my defeat I wish I knew you were safely at home

I'm missing your bed
I never sleep
Avoiding the spots where we'd have to speak,
And this bottle of beast is taking me home.

Well as for now I'm gonna hear the saddest songs
And sit alone and wonder
How you're making out
but as for me, I wish that I was anywhere, with anyone
Making out.

Your hair, it's everywhere.
Screaming infidelities
And taking its wear.


--------------------


Turn out the light
Just say goodnight to yourself
May I remind you
When you find you
Are all alone is when you
Youve got to be strong
Thats when they call you in the night
Hes got your picture in his mind
Hes got your number on a paper
At his disposal anytime

Is it really true
Did you save yourself
For someone who could love you for you
So many times we just give it away
To someone who
Someone who

You met in a bar
The back of a car
And for a moment
You felt important
But not in your heart
Cuz my self esteem
Its been low
Go ahead and count,
Its been lower than low
I know the feeling
Of it stealing life out from under me

Cuz I want to learn
How you save yourself
For someone who
Could love you for you
So many times we just give it away
To someone who couldnt even remember your name
Did you save yourself
For someone who loves you for you
And loves me for me
Give it away
To someone who
Someone who
Can cherish your name

Cuz I want to learn
Did you save yourself
For someone who
Loves you for you
And loves me for me
Give it away
To someone who
Someone who
Can cherish your name

Cherish your name

Hey Victoria, do you still hide my letters
under the mattress you lay on with him?
Do you even remember putting them there?
I'd say probably not
But I'm here and I'm writing, by the light of the candle
That I once used when I'd write you

Oh Victoria, the girl in the flowered dress
It seems you've forgotten - is this some kind of test?
And if so, I hope I'm doing well
And on the Fourth of July while I sit and cry
You and Mr. Wonderful can have the time of your lives

Oh Victoria, did you have a good time in France?
Hey don't worry, 'cause nothing's going to change - you said
Words in the wind, well they certainly do come easy
Eight months now I've been waiting for you to come around
Beating my head against the wall - you never believed me
Why would you worry? Why would you worry?

All in all, I'd still say thank you. You showed me a life I never knew
All in all, I'd still say I love you. All in all, I surrender
All in all

--------------------


It's a little bit funny, this feeling inside
I'm not one of those who can easily hide.
I don't have much money but, boy, if I did,
I'd buy a big house where we both could live.

If I was a sculptor, but, then again, no
Or a man who makes potions in a travelling show.
Oh, I know its not much but its the best I can do.
My gift is my song and, this one's for you

And you can tell everbody this is your song.
It may be quite simple but, now that it's done,
I hope you don't mind,
I hope you don't mind,
That I put down in words,
How wonderful life is while you're in the world.

I sat on the roof and kicked off the moss.
Well a few of the verses, well, they got me quite cross.
But the sun's been quite kind while I wrote this song.
Its for people like you girl, who keep me turned on.

So excuse me forgetting, but these things I do.
You see I've forgotten if they're green or they're blue.
Anyway...the thing is...what I really mean,
Yours are the sweetest eyes, I've ever seen.

And you can tell everbody this is your song.
It may be quite simple but, now that it's done,
I hope you don't mind,
I hope you don't mind,
That I put down in words,
How wonderful life is while you're in the world.

I hope you don't mind,
I hope you don't mind,
That I put down in words,
How wonderful life is while you're in the world.


--------------------


Never knew I could feel like this
Like I've never seen the sky before
Want to vanish inside your kiss
Every day I love you more and more
Listen to my heart, can you hear it sing?
Telling me to give you everything
Seasons may change, winter to spring
But I love you until the end of time

Come what may, come what may
I will love you until my dying day

Suddenly the world seems such a perfect place
Suddenly it moves with such a perfect grace

Suddenly my life doesn't seem such a waste

It all revolves around you.

And there's no mountain too high
No river too wide
Sing out this song and I'll be there by your side
Storm clouds may gather and stars may collide
But I love you (I love you)
until the end of time

Come what may, come what may
I will love you until my dying day

Oh, come what may
Come what may
I will love you, I will love you

Suddenly the world seems such a perfect place.

Come what may, come what may
I will love you until my dying day

Roxanne,
You don't have to put
On that red light.
Walk the streets for money,
You don't care if
It's wrong or if it is right.
Roxanne,
You don't have to wear
That dress tonight.
Roxanne,
You don't have to sell your
Body to the night.

(Christian)
His eyes upon your face,
His hand upon your hand,
His lips caress your skin,
It's more than I can stand!

(Christian)
Why does my heart cry?

(Jacek Koman)
Roxanne

Feelings I can't fight,
You're free to leave me,
But just don't deceive me
And please,
Believe me when I say,
I love you.

Roxanne

(Christian)
Why does my heart cry?

(Jacek Koman)
You don't have to
Put on that red light.

That dress tonight.
Roxanne,

Why does my heart cry?

In my place, in my place
were lines that I couldn't change
I was lost,
Oh yeah

I was lost, I was lost
Crossed lines I shouldn't have crossed
I was lost,
Oh yeah

Yeah,
How long must you wait for it?
Yeah,
How long must you pay for it?
Yeah,
How long must you wait for it?
Oh for it

I was scared, I was scared
Tired and under prepared
But Ill wait for it

If you go, if you go
Leave me down here on my own
then Ill wait for you (yeah)

Yeah,
How long must you wait for it?
Yeah,
How long must you pay for it?
Yeah,
How long must you wait for it?
Oh for it.

Singing
Please, please, please
come back and sing to me
to me, me

Come on and sing it out,
Now, Now
Come on and sing it out,
To me, me
come back and sing

In my place, in my place
were lines that I couldn't change
I was lost, oh yeah
Oh yeah.......

--------------------


Got your tape and it changed my mind
Heard your voice in between the lines
Come around for another time
But nobody ever goes

All alone on the overpass
Wired and phoned to a heart of glass
Now I'm falling in love too fast
With you or the songs you chose

And all the stars play for me
Say the promise you long to keep

I can hear you singing to me in my sleep
I can hear you singing to me in my sleep

I've been living in your cassette
It's the modern equivalent
Singing up to a Capulet
On a balcony in your mind

In the city the lion sleeps
Pray to Sony my soul to keep
Were you ever so bright and sweet?
Did you ever look so nice?

And all the sounds dream for me
Mmm hmmm

I can hear you singing to me in my sleep
I can hear you singing to me in my sleep
I can hear you singing to me in my sleep
I can hear you singing to me in my sleep

And all the sounds dream for me
Dive me down in a soul so deep

I can hear you singing to me in my sleep
I can hear you singing to me in my sleep
I can hear you
I can hear you
I can hear you singing to me in my
I can hear you singing to me in my sleep

--------------------


Oh, am I fooling you?
Do you fall for it all
or do you just see right through?
Are you as cool as you believe?
Are you playing hard?
Are you waiting just to quietly clock my card?
Are you waiting for a moment to leave?

I don't know how I bent what you said
to what I believe you meant
I don't know anything at all
I'm standing in the push and shove
and I'm just within the rescue
of the labour of your love
I can't do anything but fall
a-fall, a-fall-fall-fall
Why do I feel like I can never find you?
Why do I feel like I'm the only survivor?
Why am I thinking of -
you and me and the labour of love?

One chance, one shot
That's all anybody ever got
newborn still warm
Naked in the rush hour
Dancing in my gutter
and if you want to find me
Call me, I'll be far from
the cars and guitars and
Everybody
Why do I feel like I can never find you?
Why do I feel like I'm the only survivor?
Why am I thinking of -
you and me and the labour of love?

And I never knew before
but I feel like a child in a cold, cold war
So strong, so tough
Sitting in suburbia, waiting for the wind up
And I don't want to dance
I just want to jump from the prison of circumstance
why am I thinking of -
you and me and the labour of love?
Why do I feel like I can never find you?
Why do I feel like I'm the only survivor?
Why am I thinking of -
you and me and the labour of love?

--------------------


All around me are familiar faces, worn out places, worn out faces
Bright and early for the daily races
Going nowhere, going nowhere
The tears are filling up their glasses
No expression, no expression
Hide my head I want to drown my sorrow
No tomorrow, no tomorrow

And I find it kind of funny
I find it kind of sad
The dreams in which I'm dying are the best I've ever had
I find it hard to tell you
I find it hard to take
When people run in circles its a very very
Mad World
Mad World

Children waiting for the day they feel good
Happy Birthday, Happy Birthday
And they feel the way that every child should
Sit and listen
Sit and listen
Went to school and I was very nervous
No one knew me
No one knew me
Hello teacher tell me whats my lesson
Look right through me
Look right through me

And I find it kind of funny
I find it kind of sad
The dreams in which I'm dying are the best I've ever had
I find it hard to tell you
I find it hard to take
When people run in circles its a very very
Mad World
Mad World

Bus stop, wet day, she's there, I say
Please share my umbrella
Bus stop, bus goes, she stays, love grows
Under my umbrella

All that summer we enjoyed it
Wind and rain and shine
That umbrella, we employed it
By August, she was mine

Every morning I would see her waiting at the stop
Sometimes she'd shopped and she would show me what she bought
All the people stared as if we were both quite insane
Someday my name and hers are going to be the same

That's the way the whole thing started
Silly but it's true
Thinkin' of a sweet romance
Beginning in a queue

Came the sun the ice was melting
No more sheltering now
Nice to think that that umbrella
Led me to a vow

Every morning I would see her waiting at the stop
Sometimes she'd shopped and she would show me what she bought
Other people stared as if we were both quite insane
Someday my name and hers are going to be the same

Bus stop, wet day, she's there, I say
Please share my umbrella
Bus stop, bus goes, she stays, love grows
Under my umbrella

All that summer we enjoyed it
Wind and rain and shine
That umbrella, we employed it
By August, she was mine


--------------------

I walked across an empty land
I knew the pathway like the back of my hand
I felt the earth beneath my feet
Sat by the river and it made me complete

Oh simple thing where have you gone
I'm getting old and I need something to rely on
So tell me when you're gonna let me in
I'm getting tired and I need somewhere to begin

I came across a fallen tree
I felt the branches of it looking at me
Is this the place we used to love?
Is this the place that I've been dreaming of?

Oh simple thing where have you gone
I'm getting old and I need something to rely on
So tell me when you're gonna let me in
I'm getting tired and I need somewhere to begin
And if you have a minute why don't we go
Talk about it somewhere only we know?
This could be the end of everything
So why don't we go
Somewhere only we know?
Somewhere only we know?

Oh simple thing where have you gone
I'm getting old and I need something to rely on
So tell me when you're gonna let me in
I'm getting tired and I need somewhere to begin

And if you have a minute why don't we go
Talk about it somewhere only we know?
This could be the end of everything
So why don't we go
So why don't we go

This could be the end of everything
So why don't we go
Somewhere only we know?
Somewhere only we know?
Somewhere only we know?

Coming out of my cage
And I've been doing just fine
Gotta gotta be down
Because I want it all
It started out with a kiss
How did it end up like this?
It was only a kiss
It was only a kiss

Now I'm falling asleep
And she's calling a cab
While he's having a smoke
And she's taking a drag

Now they're going to bed
And my stomach is sick
And it's all in my head
But she's touching his chest now

He takes off her dress now
Letting me go
And I just can't look
It's killing me
And taking control

Jealousy
Turning saints into the sea
Swimming through sick lullabies
Choking on your alibis
But it's just the price I pay
Destiny is calling me
Open up my eager eyes
Cause I'm Mr. Brightside

Coming outta my cage
And I've been doing just fine
Gotta gotta be down because I want it all
It started off with a kiss
How did it end up like this?
It was only a kiss
It was only a kiss

Now I'm falling asleep
And she's calling a cab
While he's having a smoke
And she's taking a drag

Now they're going to bed
And my stomach is sick
And it's all in my head
But she's touching his chest now

He takes off her dress now
Letting me go
And I just can't look
It's killing me
And taking control

Jealousy
Turning saints into the sea
Swimming through sick lullabies
Choking on your alibis
But it's just the price I pay
Destiny is calling me
Open up my eager eyes

--------------------


The evening fell just like a star
Left a trail behind
You spit as you slammed out the door
If this is love we're crazy
As we fight like cats and dogs
But I just know there's got to be more

So please call me, baby
Wherever you are
It's too cold to be out walking in the streets
We do crazy things when we're wounded
Everyone's a bit insane
I don't want you catching your death of cold
Out walking in the rain

And I admit that I ain't no angel
I admit that I ain't no saint
I'm selfish and I'm cruel but you're blind
If I exorcise my devils
Well my angels may leave too
When they leave they're so hard to find

So please call me, baby
Wherever you are
It's too cold to be out walking in the streets
We do crazy things when we're wounded
Everyone's a bit insane
I don't want you catching your death of cold
Out walking in the rain

And we're always at each other's throats
You know it drives me up the wall
But most of the time I'm just blowing off steam
And I wish to God you'd leave me
Baby I wish to God you'd stay
Life's so different than it is in your dreams

--------------------


I walked around my good intentions
and found that there were none
I blame my father for the wasted years
we hardly talked
I never thought I would forget this hate
then a phone call made me realize
I'm wrong

And if I don't make it known that
I've loved you all along
just like sunny days that
we ignore because
we're all dumb & jaded
and I hope to God I figure out
what's wrong

I walked around my room
not thinking
just sinking in this box
I blame myself for being too much
like somebody else
I never thought I would just
bend this way
Then a phone call made me realize
I'm wrong

And if I don't make it known that
I've loved you all along
just like sunny days that
we ignore because
we're all dumb & jaded
and I hope to God I figure out
what's wrong

And I hope to God I figure out whats's wrong
I hope to God i figure out whats wrong

If I don't make it known that
I've loved you all along
just like sunny days that
we ignore because
we're all dumb & jaded
and I hope to God I figure out
what's wrong


--------------------

Don't hold yourself like that
You'll hurt your knees
I kissed your mouth and back
But that's all I need
Don't build your world around volcanoes melt you down

What I am to you is not real
What I am to you you do not need
What I am to you is not what you mean to me
You give me miles and miles of mountains
And I'll ask for the sea

Don't throw yourself like that
In front of me
I kissed your mouth your back
Is that all you need?
Don't drag my love around volcanoes melt me down

What I am to you is not real
What I am to you you do not need
What I am to you is not what you mean to me
You give me miles and miles of mountains
And I'll ask for what I give to you
Is just what i'm going through
This is nothing new
No no just another phase of finding what I really need
Is what makes me bleed
And like a new disease she's still too young to treat
Volcanoes melt me down
She's still too young
I kissed your mouth
You do not need me

--------------------


Still a little bit of your taste in my mouth
Still a little bit of you laced with my doubt
Still a little hard to say what's going on

Still a little bit of your ghost, your weakness
Still a little bit of your face I haven't kissed
You step a little closer each day
That I can't say what's going on

Stones taught me to fly
Love taught me to lie
Life taught me to die
So it's not hard to fall
When you float like a cannonball

Still a little bit of your song in my ear
Still a little bit of your words I long to hear
You step a little closer to me
So close that I can't see what's going on

Stones taught me to fly
Love taught me to lie
Life taught me to die
So it's not hard to fall
When you float like a cannon-

Stones taught me to fly
Love taught me to cry
So come on courage
Teach me to be shy
'Cause it's not hard to fall
And I don't want to scare her
It's not hard to fall
And I don't wanna lose
It's not hard to grow
When you know that you just don't know


--------------------

Across the night
It was the moon that stole my slumber
Across the night
I fell in love with people sleeping

I fell tired
Asleep in a golden ocean
Eyes perspired
A spike in my fascination

I don't mean to make you cry
But these feelings run right through the night
And I'll only make you cry with these feelings

Across the night
It was the moon that stole my slumber
Across the night
I fell in love with people sleeping
Across the night
Across the night
Across the night
I hugged a man's arthritic shoulder

Sleepless, untamed
Without a leash on the light around me

I don't mean to make you cry
But these feelings run right through the night
And I'll only make you cry with these feelings

Across the night
It was the moon that stole my slumber
Across the night
I feel in love with people sleeping
Across the night
Across the night
Across the night
I hugged a man's arthritic shoulder
I hugged a man's arthritic shoulder

So let us be married
And have another baby

Cause I don't want to be lonely
I just want to be alone

Yeah, let's just get married
Shouting, Bay, bay, babies!
Oh, you'll never sleep at all
I don't want to be lonely
Oh, you'll never sleep at all
I don't want to be lonely
I just want to be alone

Never seen the sun shine
From higher points than sunrise
I don't want to be lonely
Never seen the sun shine
From higher points than sunrise
I don't to be lonely
I just want to be alone
Alone
Alone


--------------------


Miles away
There's hopeless smiles brighter than mine
And I need for you to come and go
Without the truth falling out

Old incisions refusing to stay
Like sun through the trees on a cloudy day

You brighten my life like a polystyrene hat
But it melts in the sun like a life without love
And I've waited for you so I'll keep holding on
Without you
Without you

Telephone
Socially scared and impaired
If the trees will bloom the wind can blow
Without the fruit falling out

Old incisions refusing to stay
Like sun through the trees on a cloudy day

You brighten my life like a polystyrene hat
But it melts in the sun like a life without love
And I've waited for you so I'll keep holding on
Without you
Without you

Feels like the wind blows
Holding you with us
She takes no other
False light and ashes
Blooming like winter

You brighten my life like a polystyrene hat
But it melts in the sun like a life without love
And I've waited for you so I'll keep holding on
Without you
Without you
Without you


--------------------


Got my fever down
Then weighed it up
And I know the sounds remaining
Won't strain all the silt from my eyes
Bleach the green from the pastures
Feast on the grey of the night
Straight from the vines refusal to shine

You're my favourite thing
You're my favourite
The one that I love
You're the one so I'd die for your love

Blind the deafened moon
Stimulate the tombs of angels
I'll open my heart, wont fall apart
So don't fall apart

You're my favourite thing
You're my favourite
The one that I love
You're the one so I'd die for your love

And I feel like letting go
And I feel like letting go

You're my favourite thing
You're my favourite thing
You're my favourite
The one that I love
You're the one so I'd die for your
Die for your love

--------------------


She said 'Meet me at the gates at eight
'Leave now, don't be late'
She said one day she'd walk away
'Cause I was always late
Thought things were okay
Didn't care though anyway
Say 'Sorry, babe, I had to meet a mate'
Tempting fate
We first met through a shared view
She loved me and I did too
It's now seven-fifty
Getting ready, better be nifty
Do my hair quickly
Step out, it's cloudy
Mate bells me to borrow money
I've got two henrys and a dealer to pay
Call up on geezers to rid these green trees
From my reeking jeans
Got a You-Think-I-Care air
Out glaring geezers' stares
I'm here and I'm there
Couldn't see past the end of my beer
What was getting near
All of the silence after the tears

I didn't know it was over
Till it was too late, too late
But if I ever needed you
Would you be there?

She said 'Meet me at the gates, don't be late'
But pretty soon the day came for change
And I was glad she never walked away
So I'm choosing what to wear
Doing my hair with an hour to spare
When my life went pear
She'd been there with a fixed stare

Big wheel climbed to the top
Geezers' stares bounced off
Standing at the top of this huge mountain
Smiling and shouting
Spring flowers sprouting
Not one inch of doubt in my mind
As I reached the gates
Came around the corner at a rate
Risked her love
But I was gonna set things straight
Never again am I gonna be late

I didn't know it was over
Till it was too late, too late
But if I ever needed you
Would you be there?

I said meet me at the gates
Leave now, don't be late
I waited for a while
Listening to her voicemail
Mind set sail
Then the facts turned me pale
Wind, rain, hail
My fears unveiled for my fair female
She'd walked away
Too little to late
I step up the pace
Walk past the gate
Rain runs over my face
Spirit falls from grace
I purchase a hazy escape at the alcohol place
In the Chase, I sat down, got a fat frown
Weeping and drown in my senses
For this love game's expensive
I walk in a trance
Got a wounded soldier stance
And the everyday geezers' stares throw me off balance
Now nothing holds significance
And nothing holds relevance
Cause the only thing I can see is her elegance

--------------------


In one single moment, your whole life can turn round
I stand there for a minute, staring straight into the ground
Looking to the left slightly, then looking back down
The world feels like it's caved in, proper sorry frown

Please let me show you where we could only just be for us
I can change, and I can grow, or we could adjust
The wicked thing about us is we always have trust
We can even have an open relationship if you must

I look at her, she stares almost straight back at me
But her eyes glaze over, like she's looking straight through me
Her eyes must have closed for what seems an eternity
When they open up she's looking down at her feet

Dry your eyes mate
I know it's hard to take, but her mind has been made up
There's plenty more fish in the sea
Dry your eyes mate
I know you want to make her see how much this pain hurts
But you've got to walk away now, it's over

So then I move my hand up and down by my side
It's shaking; my life is crashing before my eyes
I turn the palm of my hand up to face the skies
Touch the bottom of her chin and let out a sigh

'Cause I can't imagine my life without you and me
There's things I can't imagine doing
Things I can't imagine seeing
It weren't supposed to be easy, surely
Please, please, I'm begging, please

She brings her hands up towards where my hands rested
She wraps her fingers around mine with the softness she's blessed with
She peels away my fingers, looks at me and then gestures
By pushing my hand away to my chest, from hers

Dry your eyes mate
I know it's hard to take, but her mind has been made up
There's plenty more fish in the sea
Dry your eyes mate
I know you want to make her see how much this pain hurts
But you've got to walk away now, it's over

And I'm just standing there
I can't say a word
Because everything is just gone
I've got nothing
Absolutely nothing

Trying to pull her close out of bear desperation
Put my arms around her, trying to change what she's saying
Pull my head level with hers so that she might engage in
Look in to her eyes to make her listen again

I'm not gonna fucking just fucking leave it all now
'Cause you said it'd be forever, and that was your vow
And your gonna let our things simply crash and fall down
You're well out of order now, this is well out of town

She pulls away my arms, tightly clamped round her waist
Gently pushes me back as she looks at me straight
Turns around so she's now got her back to my face
Takes one step forward, looks back, then walks away

Dry your eyes mate
I know it's hard to take, but her mind has been made up
There's plenty more fish in the sea
Dry your eyes mate
I know you want to make her see how much this pain hurts
But you've got to walk away now, it's over

I know in the past I've found it hard to say
Telling you things, but not telling straight
But the more I pull on your hand and say
The more you pull away

Dry your eyes mate
I know it's hard to take, but her mind has been made up
There's plenty more fish in the sea
Dry your eyes mate
I know you want to make her see how much this pain hurts
But you've got to walk away now


--------------------

Where have you gone
My love
My friend
Somewhere without the rain
I feel afraid now
I feel alone
Will we meet again
Can you recall what we once knew
Somewhere without the pain
I feel afraid now
But not alone
We will meet again
I can't hear your voice
But you know I feel your soul
I can't hear your voice
But you know I feel your soul
Where have you gone
My love
My friend
Somewhere without any pain
I'm not afraid
Now I'm not alone
We will meet again

--------------------



Close your eyes
Let me touch you now
Let me give you something
That is real

Close the door
Leave your fears behind
Let me give you
What you're giving me

You are the only thing
That makes me want to live at all

When I am with you
There's no reason to pretend
That
When I am with you
I feel flames again

Just put me inside you
I would never ever leave
Just put me inside you
I would never ever leave you

--------------------

I stood on mountaintops
That overlooked the world
I can't find anything
Except a void inside
I went to places where
I could forget your name
I can't find anything
Except a void inside

I don't have anything
Because I don't have you
I don't have anything

What can I buy to make
The sky turn blue again
Where can I go to feel
Like I'm alive again
Show me the places
Where I can forget your name
I can't find anything
Except a void inside

I don't have anything
Because I don't have you
I don't have anything

I've been stripped of everything
Except some flesh that bleeds
And I've been robbed of everything
Except a soul, except a soul
That needs...you, sweet you

I don't have anything
Because I don't have you
I don't have anything


--------------------

you fell down of course
and then you got up of course
and started over
forgot my name of course
then you started to remember

pretty tough to think about
the beginning of december
pretty tough to think about
pretty tough to think about
yeah yeah
pretty tough to think about

you're looking down again
and then you look me over
we're laying down again
on a blanket in the clover

the same boy youve always known
well i guess i havent grown
the same boy youve always known
the same boy youve always known

think of what the past did
it could have lasted
so put it in your basket
i hope you know a strong man
who can lend you a hand
lowering my casket

i thought this is just today
and soon youd be returning
the coldest blue ocean water cannot stop
my heart and mind from burning

everyone who's in the know says
thats exactly how it goes
and if theres anything good about me
im the only one who knows

--------------------

Your flirts finds me out
Teases the crack in me
Smittens me with hope
Possibly maybe, possibly maybe, possibly maybe.

As much as I definitely enjoy solitude
I wouldn't mind perhaps
Spending little time with you
Sometimes, sometimes

Possibly maybe probably love,
Possibly maybe probably love

Uncertainty excites me
Baby
Who knows what's going to happen?
Lottery or car crash
Or you'll join a cult

Probably maybe, possibly love
Probably maybe, possibly love
possibly

Mon petit vulcan
You're eruptions and disasters
I keep calm
Admiring your lava
I keep calm

Possibly maybe probably love
Possibly maybe probably love

Electric shocks
I love them
With you dozen a day
But after a while I wonder
Where's that love you promised me?
Where is it?

Possibly maybe probably love
Possibly maybe probably love

How can you offer me love like that?
My heart's burned
How can you offer me love like that?
I'm exhausted
Leave me alone

Possibly maybe, possibly maybe, possibly maybe.

Since we broke up
I'm using lipstick again
I suck my tongue
In remembrance of you

Possibly maybe, possibly maybe
Possibly maybe, possibly maybe
Possibly maybe, possibly maybe

--------------------


All these accidents,
That happen,
Follow the dot,
Coincidence,
Makes sense,
Only with you,
You don't have to speak,
I feel.

Emotional landscapes,
They puzzle me,
The riddle gets solved,
And you push me up to this

State of emergency,
How beautiful to be,
State of emergency,
Is where I want to be.

All that no-one sees,
You see,
What's inside of me,
Every nerve that hurts,
You heal,
Deep inside of me, oo-oohh,
You don't have to speak,
I feel.

Emotional landscapes,
They puzzle me - confuse,
Then the riddle gets solved,
And you push me up to this

State of emergency,
How beautiful to be,
State of emergency,
Is where I want to be.

State of emergency,
How beautiful to be,

Emotional landscapes,
They puzzle me,
the riddle gets solved,
And you push me up to this

State of emergency,
How beautiful to be,
State of emergency,
Is where I want to be.

State of emergency,
How beautiful to be,
State of emergency,
State of, state of,
How beautiful,
Emergency,
Is where I want to be.

State of emergency,
How beautiful to be,
State of emergency,
Is where I want to be.

State of emergency,
How beautiful to be.


--------------------


while you are away
my heart comes undone
slowly unravels
in a ball of yarn
the devil collects it
with a grin
our love
in a ball of yarn
he'll never return it
so when you come back
we'll have to make new love


--------------------


she touched
my arm
and smiled

one of these days soon : very soon

love you til then
love you til then
feel my breath
on your neck
and your heart will race

don't say no to me
you can't say no to me
i won't see you
denied

i'm sorry you saw that
i'm sorry he did it

an echo

a stain...

a stain...

i can't say no to you
i can't say no to you
say nothing

freefalling

complete


--------------------


His embrace : a fortress
it fuels me and places
a skeleton of trust
right beneath us
bone by bone
stone by stone

If you ask yourself
patiently
and carefully:
who is it?
who is it?

Who is it - that never lets you down?
Who is it - that gave you back your crown?
and the ornaments are
they're going around
now they're handing it over
they're handing it over
handing it over

Who is it - that never lets you down?
Who is it - that gave you back your crown?
and the ornaments are
they're going around
now -- they're handing it over
handing it over

He demands a closeness
we all have earned a lightness
carry my joy on the left
carry my pain on the right

If you ask yourself
now patiently
and carefully:
who is it?

Who is it - that never lets you down?
Who is it - that gave you back your crown?
and the ornaments are
they're going around
and I'm handing it over
handing it over
handing

Who is it - that never lets you down?
Who is it - that gave you back your crown?
and the ornaments are
they're going around
now I'm handing it over

Wouldn't it be nice if we were older
And we wouldn't have to wait so long
And wouldn't it be nice to live together
In the kind of world where we belong

You know it's gonna make it that much better
When we can say goodnight and stay together

Wouldn't it be nice if we could wake up
In the morning when the day is new
And after having spent the day together
Hold each other close the whole night through

Happy times together we've been spending
I wish that every kiss was never ending
Wouldn't it be nice

Maybe if we think and wish and hope and pray
It might come true
Baby then there wouldn't be a single thing we couldn't do
We could be married
And then we'd be happy
Wouldn't it be nice

You know it seems the more we talk about it
It only makes it worse to live without it
But let's talk about it
Wouldn't it be nice

Good night baby
Sleep tight baby

Good night baby
Sleep tight baby
