No one really knows me
No one ever said
Surely isn't free
Surely...doesn't end, honey
Like a playing song in my head
Drifting on, here I am
Heading for the blue light
Shivered back again
Almost in the blue light
When you shivered back again, old friend
It's coming on, in my head...
(Playing on and on)
Something too hard will be ok
The things you do...
It's coming with you...
Here comes the blue light
Here comes the blue light
...Still playing on...
6 O'Clock I'm wasted
She is in my bones again
City's all gone right dead
May as well find my way
Save your books and your pills
I don't need them I'm there
You can do anything you want to
All you've got to do is try
I thought my best days had left me
My best years had left me behind
Then I felt them come back (to me)
And all the wild eyes
All the wild eyes no what I mean
It trees cut stars and eyes to heaven
I'll bend them back and bend them again
If my skin looks tired and ol from living
I'll turn right back and live it again
You better pray when the music stops
And you're left alone in your mind
Cause I'll be hearing music till the day I die
Then I heard it turn off
I swear I heard the screams
And all the wild eyes
All the wild eyes no what I mean
They're scared they've lost their dream
They press down on me
You know I thought I was there
Hello high are you?
Yes, well that explains it
Oh you were walking rould like some kind of angel
You were walking rould like some kind of angel
Hello high are you yes
Well that explains it
Well that explains it
Three long years
Waited for you but it crossed my dirty mind
There's baggage I know
But this plane takes off if there's no place to go
I know you know (x3)
I know
But I'm back on my feet again
Child we're back on our feet again
I guess it's time to feel the sun on our skin
I guess it's time to feel the sun on our skin
Wishing this would never end
Wishing this would never end
Wishing my life had no end
Oh child we're back on our feet again
There is no time for wasting moments
That we have longed to share
There was a day
When I almost prayed
That I could see you there by my side
By my side
Ain't love enough
Lord we're back on our feet again
Lord I'm back on my feet again
Guess it's time to feel the sun on our skin....shine on
Guess it's time to feel the sun on our skin....shine on
Saying things like "It never ends"
Yeah I believe that this will never end
Yeah I believe that this will never end
Yeah I believe that our love never ends
Yes I believe that our love never ends
Yes I believe that our love never ends
Yes I believe our love will never end
I just don't know
Child shine on
Let's get it on
Shine on
It will shine on (repeat)
Cause love's enough (repeat)
A simle and a hand mix like water with sand
As far as you're concerned
A road and a sign I know which one catches my eyes
And I, thought I heard it for a while
Then it all came to me
Sometimes I just don't know I believe in
Don't you wanna kow when I suffer
It doesn't show
A smile and a hand mix like water with sand don't you know?
I was thinking about moving back home
I don't really need to live here no no no no
I didn't I could I'm sure I would if I knew that
I didn't I couldl I'm sure I would if I knew that
A smile and a hand mix like water with sand
As far as you're concerned
A beautiful mind or a beautiful body
I know which one, I'm gonna end upon end upon
No change, I can change, I can change, I can change,
but I'm here in my mould , I am here in my mould.
But I'm a million different people from one day to the next...
I can't change my mould , no,no,no,no,no,no,no
Well I've never prayed,
But tonight I'm on my knees, yeah.
I need to hear some sounds that recognise the pain in me, yeah.
I let the melody shine, let it cleanse my mind , I feel free now.
But the airwaves are clean and there's nobody singing to me now.
No change, I can change, I can change, I can change,
but I'm here in my mould , I am here in my mould.
And I'm a million different people from one day to the next
I can't change my mould, no,no,no,no,no,no,no
Have you ever been down?
I can change, I can change...
Cause it's a bittersweet symphony this life.
Trying to make ends meet, try to find somebody then you die.
You know I can change, I can change, I can change,
but I'm here in my mould, I am here in my mould.
And I'm a million different people from one day to the next.
I can't change my mould, no,no,no,no,no,no,no
We've got ya sex and violence melody and silence
(Have you ever been down)
(I'll take you down the only road I've ever been down)
We could steal a car and listen to the stars
I can see you've choked on them too
Had enough of late night films
Just enough for an hour or two
Oh Blue show me something new
Oh blue show me something new
Blue I've got a question every time I hold you
Ye Blue I've got a question every time I swallow you it's true
Spike danced for 10 days long
We were just heading for the sun
You shot him down there's blood on my face
His heart's in the right place
What they gonna do to you
What they gonna do
Blue don't forget the word I warned you
Oh Blue don't let them push you don't let them destroy you
Meanwhile I'm searching with my brain blown eyes
See the world through my dirty lonely mixed up mind
Butterfly (repeat)
You could take the storm away forever every day
Cause you're mine
And I don't know what to say
You could let my smile disappear for a year
Cause you're mine
That's the only way I like it to be
Butterfly (repeat)
Now we get to the best part
It happens all the time, telling me all your lies
You get your kicks from seeing me on the floor
Tied to your bed
Tied to the things you said
Butterfly comming back
Butterfly comming back
Butterfly
I'm gonna keep catching that butterfly
In that dream of mine
I'm gonna keep catching that butterfly
In that dream of mine
In my lucid dreams
In my lucid dreams
Something now????
Through life no fun
I want to feel
I want to run
I'm gonna keep catching that butterfly
In that dream of mine
I'm gonna keep catching that butterfly
In that dream of mine
In my lucid dreams
In my lucid dreams
I'm gonna keep catching that butterfly
In that dream of mine
Keep catching that butterfly
In that dream of mine
I'm gonna keep catching that butterfly
In that dream of mine
I'm gonna keep catching that butterfly
In my private dreams
In my private dreams
In my private dreams
My lucid dreams
My forgotten schemes
I see through you
You see through me
I see through you
You see through me
Be with me
Be with me
I see through you
You see through me
I see through you
You see through me
To be in your eyes
To be in your eyes
Stormy clouds, new horizons
Come and get it, if you want to
So hop on the train coz it kills the pain
Blues player going to another town
Believe me this boy here is sinking
Just drinking
These streets, these times
They tie me down through with you
But I feel no pain
Stormy clouds, new horizons
You keep calling but it's hollow
I never heard you
I've waited for so long
No I want to swallow
Every part of you
Come on
Let the spirit inside you
Don't wait to be found
Come along with my sound
Let the spirit move you
Let the waves come up
They'll fuse you
I never met no one to deny a sound
I must be going insane
I called the doctor so he can relieve
He's got a little pill for me
Just a little luxury
Help me through my day
Come on
Let the spirit inside you
Don't wait to be found
Come along with our sound
Let the spirit move you
Let the waves come up
They'll fuse you
I never met no one to deny our sound
Come on
Come on
Come on
Come on...
There's only one life
There's only one life
Let it go
Let it go
Let it go
This is a big
Fuck you!
This is a big
Fuck you!
Come on!
Come on now
Child full of giving
Child full of hoping
Now it's gone
Now it's gone
And you're gonna run
Now it's gone
Now it's gone
And you're gonna run
This is where you've never been
And maybe one day you'll follow me
Look ok on the outside
Dead on the inside
And there's nothing to win
Aint no disease
Child full of giving
Child full of giving
Yes you were
Child full of hoping
Lying, dying, dead
Child full of hoping
But now it's gone
And you run
Now it's gone
Now it's gone
And you're gonna run
You're gonna run
You're gonna run
You're gonna run
And it feels good
Close the door
And take off those clothes
Dance with me till the morning shows
In your bed and in your skin
I'll be your whole
One whole soul
I need this feeling almost every day
Can't beat this feeling girl
I just gotta say
In your bed and in your skin
I'll be your whole
One whole soul
Turn out the lights
Let the damage
Didn't like pain
Till I lived in sin
Don't you
Don't you come on
Don't you
Do you
In your bed and in your skin
Didn't like pain
Till I lived in sin
So lets go for a ride
Go for a ride
I feel fine
Go for a ride
I'm feeling fine
Let's go for a ride
Go for a ride
Let's go for a ride
We will
Hey kids where's the gun?
Where's the old fun?
Hey kids where's your gun?
Who's going to have this fun?
Devil blows his wind down my road
Looking for some fragile minds
Maybe I could still get loose
Maybe we could dance to get loose
Hey kids where's your guns?
Don't you have no fun?
He said, "Hey kid, pick up the gun
Don't you like this one?"
He said, "Hey kid, pick up the gun
Don't you want a little fun?"
Devil blows cold down my road
Looking for some young bones for his work
You don't work, you can't eat
Devil's gonna dance on your bones, on your bones...
Hey kids, where's your guns?
Don't you like this one?
Devil blows cold down my road
You don't work, you can't eat
Hey kids buy some more
Hey kids buy some guns
...The Devil blows...
...The Devil blows...
And how long will I run for?
Who am I running from?
And it makes sense
The youth coming up and making you dance
Coz I've got something inside of me
So come on I could use the company
And how long will I run for?
Who am I running from?
But now I've seen my face on a cardboard wall
Nobody comes, nobody calls
And how long will I run for?
Who am I running from?
Teenage tears sting my eyeballs
In a town where I wasn't born
And I will never suffer
So come on, come on, come on
But now I see my face in a cardboard wall
Nobody comes, nobody calls
If your looking for me
I'm there and it's true
If your looking for me out there it's true
Oh lover I know this ain't what it should be
But let me take you home
I'll show you what you should see
I was gonna drive you home
I was gonna tell you who I wanted
I was gonna drive you home...
I'll never change for anyone
I know it's there but I just can't see it
I know it's there but I can't see it
A little light with you and me in it
I know it's there but I can't see it
I was thinking about the times I could have had
And whether they turn out good if they turn out bad
I was going to take you home
Show you things your lover wouldn't know
My angel, my lover, my angel
My mind lover, my mind lover
She's my mind lover
And I hope you're thinking of me
As you lay down on your side
Now the drugs don't work
They just make you worse
But I know I'll see your face again
Now the drugs don't work
They just make you worse
But I know I'll see your face again
But I know I'm on a losing streak
'Cause I passed down my old street
And if you wanna show, then just let me know
And I'll sing in your ear again
Now the drugs don't work
They just make you worse
But I know I'll see your face again
'Cause baby, ooh, if heaven calls, I'm coming, too
Just like you said, you leave my life, I'm better off dead
All this talk of getting old
It's getting me down my love
Like a cat in a bag, waiting to drown
This time I'm comin' down
Now the drugs don't work
They just make you worse
But I know I'll see your face again
'Cause baby, ooh, if heaven calls, I'm coming, too
Just like you said, you leave my life, I'm better off dead
But if you wanna show, just let me know
And I'll sing in your ear again
Now the drugs don't work
They just make you worse
But I know I'll see your face again
Yeah, I know I'll see your face again
Yeah, I know I'll see your face again
Yeah, I know I'll see your face again
Yeah, I know I'll see your face again
I'm never going down, I'm never coming down
No more, no more, no more, no more, no more
I'm never coming down, I'm never going down
No more, no more, no more, no more, no more
(Repeat and Fade Out)
In the bridges, in the arches Lie the Broken-hearted In the bridges, in the arches Die the Broken-hearted Tell me why, I just started
(1st voice:) (2nd voice:) Maybe we're gonna take ya Maybe we're gonna take ya Maybe we're gonna take ya Maybe we're gonna take ya Maybe we're gonna take ya Maybe You save me Maybe we're gonna take ya Maybe You save me Maybe we're gonna take ya Maybe You save me Maybe we're gonna take ya Yeah You save me
In the Subway when You walk home All those lonely names Some have long gone In the bridges, in the arches Where I lie, Broken-hearted
[Repeat Chorus]
Gotta go now, You gotta go now You gotta go now You gotta go now You gotta go now You gotta go now You gotta go now
Maybe we're gonna take Ya Maybe we're gonna take Ya Maybe we're gonna take Ya
Oh no, no, no, don't let me down again now now
(1st voice:) (2nd voice:) Oh no, no, no don't let me down again now now Maybe you save me Oh no, no, no Maybe you save me don't let me down again now now Maybe you save me Oh no, no, no Maybe you save me don't let me down again now now Maybe you save me

I've never felt this before
To see you dead on my floor
I can't recall a single day
That's gonna make this pain sail away
My senses have been so cold
Didn't know how to feel or hold
For a second I felt something new
For a second I believed in you
And I wanna know, and I wanna be, and I wanna feel
And I wanna know, and I wanna be, and I wanna feel
And I wanna know, and I wanna be, and I wanna feel
And I wanna know, and I wanna be, and I wanna feel
Could my friend weaken?
We could, my friend we can
We should my....
I wanna be part of....
Cos I wanna know, and I wanna be, and I wanna feel
Cos I wanna know, and I wanna be, and I wanna feel
You get the gun
We're on the train
I feel no pain, I feel no pain
You set the sights
But I'm already there
Do you care? Do you care?
I can't get it out of my head
When you said, "I want you dead."
I feel surprised that you wanted to know
Where the geese go
When it snows
I'm alright, I feel fine
'Cause it's inside, it's inside
I can't get it out of my head
When he said, "I want him dead."
You get the burn, we're on the train
I feel no pain, I feel no pain
You set the sights but I'm already there
Do you care, do you care
I can't get it wou of my head
When you said
I'm leaving
I felt surprised
That you wanted to know
Where the geese go
Leave at night
I feel fine
What is it inside of me, it's inside
And can't get it out of my head
When he said in my memory
So it goes...you come in on your own in this life
And you know you leave on your own
I'm just a boy, and a wifeless fella
Another drink and I won't miss her
To me you're like a setting sun, you shine and you're gone
(on the EP version, it's "You rise and you're gone". This is the No COme
Down version i'm transcribing to you)
Come back, come back again and again,
It's been years since i can remember when
Your world just spins whilst mine stands still
Nothing's changed in my gravity grave
grey skies no rain in my eyes
cold winds
blew her back here again
walking back home 'bout six past five
no one around your? the only boy alive
see through those blinds your with another guy
no one gonna save her i will
grey skies no rain in my eyes
cold wind
blew her back here my eyes
cold wind
blew her back here again
grey skies
no rain
goodbye
my pain
*In every man, in every hand
In every kiss, you understand
That livng is for other men*
I hope you two will understand
I've got to tell you my tale
Of how I loved and how I failed
I hope you understand
I've got to tell you my tale
Of how I loved and how I failed
I hope you understand
These feelings should not be in the man
In every child, in every eye
In every sky, above my head
I hope that I know
So come with me in bed
Because it's you and me, we're history
There ain't nothing left to say
When I will get you alone
Maybe we could find a room
Where we could see what we should do
Maybe you konw it's true
Living with me is like keeping a fool
In every man, in every hand
In every kiss, you understand
That living is for other men
I hope you know that I am me so come on
I'm thinking about history
And I'm living for history
And I think you know about me
Cause I am
And one and one is two
But three is company
When you're thinking about the things you do
And you're thinking about the things you do
I want to tell you my tale
How I fell in love and jumped out on my bail
I hope ypu understand there's more in a smile than in a hand
In every sky, in every kiss
There's something that I migght have missed
Why am I going to
A place that now belongs to you
But you were weak and so was I
Let's pick it up, let's even try
To live today, so why not smile
Don't dream away your life coz it is mine
Is that a crime (repeat) this life is mine
The bed ain't made but it's filled full of hope
I've got a skin full of dope
I've got a skin full of dope
So..here we go...
No knock on my door.
Baby , Till you see what living has done to me.
And I'm sure that life means more than this.
I took her to a room and I showed her myself,
She made feel proud and respectful,
There's nothing that this girl won't do for me,
For that I've gotta thank her , I mean it.
So..here we go...
A face in the crowd,
Jump up then jump down,
Baby.
Can you see through me?
Sure,I've been here before,
No knock on my door,
No love , in the car. *
Baby...
Please be my style.
Sure,I've seen it before,
No knock on my door,
Love in the car can be painful I know.*
Cry , I've cried every night.
I need to hold you Child,
Oh , But can you see me?
Knocking down your door.
Sure , There's times I have crawled,
And there is times I have dreamed,
Oh , but it seems that , must you need my love?
And I never seem to put it out , my love.
And I'm shaking,
I'm shaking,
and I'm shaking.
The straightest a crow flies
I'll leave this town behind
I'll say goodbye
So afraid that I
Told her things that I
Thought that I left behind
So see what living's done to me
My eyes are huge black balls
And I need company
I'll burn your books
That made your tags
The ones that made the pain
That I was alive
Is that a crime?
So afraid that I
I tried to tell her that I
Didn't like breathing and I
I wanted to live and if I
See the faces that I
I long to kiss and if I
Tread this path one more time...
When I go...I know, I know, I know
When I go...you'll know
Tell me, who do you see when you die in your dreams?
Tell me, who do you touch when you come in your dreams?
I know that sometimes I get lost
Been asking questions since the day I could talk
Life is sweet but when my bones get cold
Will you be there for me to hold?
Tell me, who do you see when you die in your dreams?
Tell me, who do you touch when you come in your dreams?
Tell me, who do you see when you die in your dreams?
Tell me, could it be yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
You holding me
Oh Lord, I guess I'll never know (repeat)
When you die in your dreams
Oh Lord, I guess I'll never know
Will I be holding you?
Oh Lord, I guess I'll never know
When I die in my sleep
Oh Lord, I guess I'll never know
Will I be holding you?
Oh Lord, I guess I'll never know
When you come in your dreams
Oh Lord, I guess I'll never know
Am I holding you
Oh Lord, I guess I'll never know
When you come in your dreams
Oh Lord, I guess I'll never know
Am I holding you
Oh Lord, I guess I'll never know
But how many corners do I have to turn?
How many times do I have to learn
All the love I have is in my mind?
Well, I'm a lucky man
With fire in my hands
Happiness
Something in my own place
I'm standing naked
Smiling, I feel no disgrace
With who I am
Happiness
Coming and going
I watch you look at me
Watch my fever growing
I know just who I am
But how many corners do I have to turn?
How many times do I have to learn
All the love I have is in my mind?
I hope you understand
I hope you understand
Gotta love that'll never die
Happiness
More or less
It's just a change in me
Something in my liberty
Happiness
Coming and going
I watch you look at me
Watch my fever growing
I know
Oh, my, my
Oh, my, my
Oh, my, my
Oh, my, my
Gotta love that'll never die
Gotta love that'll never die
No, no
I'm a lucky man
It's just a change in me
Something in my liberty
It's just a change in me
Something in my liberty
It's just a change in me
Something in my liberty
Oh, my, my
Oh, my, my
It's just a change in me
Something in my liberty
Oh, my, my
Oh, my, my
Why he's here I will never know
He makes you know you feel like somewhere to go
Mr. Sun just shine (on me)
Mr. Sun won't you shine? (on me)
Walking with a man called Sun
I think my journey's just begun
Do you think you might....?
He lifts you up and shines and then he's gone
But you know you need him more when he's gone
Mr. Sun just shine (on me)
Mr. Sun won't you shine? (on me)
In a moment you'd changed
Things weren't the same
You were talking at me not with me
And your tongue was burning up in flames
Are you coming back? Are you coming back?
When Monday comes you'll be alone with
The whole world staring at you
Hey my friend are we gonna make it till Monday?
Hey my friend friend you better leave now I'm gonna go my own way
You said I suffer from inner frustration
In a moment you changed
Things weren't the same
You were talking at me not with me
And your tounge was burning up in flames
And when you turn him off
Where does he go?
Where've the years gone?
I don't no
Hey my friend are we gonna make it till Monday?
Hey my friend are we gonna make it till Monday?
I've been on the shelf too long
Sitting at home on my bed too long
Got my things and now I'm gone
How's the world gonna take me?
Finding myself used to be hard
But now, I see the light
If love is a drug
Then I don't need it
I've been on the shelf too long
Sitting at home on my bed too long
Now it's time to hear my song
How are you gonna take it?
I've been on the shelf too long
I've been on the shelf too long
I've been on the shelf too long
e've got a lot of living to do
There's a door in my mind that's open wide
Come inside come inside
Jesus never saved me
He'll never save you too, and you know!
I've got a little sticker on the back of my boot
This is music
And now I see the light shining bright in my eyes
If love is the drug then it ain't for me
Well music is my life
And loved by me
I'm gonna move on the floor with my sweet young thing
Down down down we go till we reach the bottom
Of our soul with this is music
Stood before I sink
In a neon wilderness
Spill my last drink
Yeah, he was restless
Say good-bye to my new friends
Escape from loneliness
I found a new address
In the last room
I hear a boom
Someone else's distress
In a neon wilderness
Someone else's distress
In a neon wilderness
And I hear a boom
In a neon wilderness
He was restless
Escape loneliness
For a new address
In a neon wilderness
He was restless
Escape loneliness
For a new address
Imagine the future
Wke up with a scream
I was buying some feelings
From a vending machine
Say that I will see
Something more than I have
There's something inside of me
Crying out for something else
And if someone hears my scream
Put it in a letter to me
Slippery slidey road down
Life's an ocean too much commotion
Not enough emotion to satisfy me
Slippery slidey road down
It's slippery slidey road down
Hold my hand and we'll walk down
Dry those eyes and we'll walk down
Slippery slidey road down
Life's an ocean, life's an ocean
Too much commotion, too much emotion
One day maybe you will see the land
Touch skin with sand
You've been swimming in the lonely sea
With no company
Oh, don't you want to find?
Can't you hear this beauty in life?
The roads, the highs, breaking up your life
Can't you hear this beauty in life?
One day maybe you will cry again
Just like a child
You've gotta tie yourself to the mast my friend
And the storm will end
Oh, don't you want to find?
Can't you hear this beauty in life?
The times, the highs, breaking up your mind
Can't you hear this beauty in life?
Oh, you're too afraid to touch
Too afraid you'll like it too much
The roads, the times, breaking up your mind
Can't you hear this beauty in life?
One day maybe I will dance again
One day maybe I will love again
One day maybe we will dance again
You know you've gotta
Tie yourself to the mast my friend
And the storm will end
One day maybe you will love again
You've gotta tie yourself to the mast my friend
And the storm will end
I'd rather die than see you fly
Than see you try *x2*
It's like pushing up thoughts to get in your mind
I don't care what I find
It's like pushing up thoughts to get in your mind
I don't know what I'll find
You've got to move me up
So high it hurts
So high it works
But if you let me down
Don't bother to call just let me fall
I'd rather die than see you fly
Than see you try
It's like pushing up thoughts to get in your mind
I don't know what I'll find
It's like pushing up doors to get in your mind
I don't care what I find *repeat*
It's all I want
One way to go
All I want is someone who can fill the hole
In the life I know
In between life and death when there's nothing left
Do you wanna know?
You come in on your own
And you leave on your own
Forget the lovers you've know
And your friends on your own
Tell me if it's true
That I need you, you are changing
I've seen this road before down on the floor
It is hurting me
All I want is someone who can fill the hole in the life I know
In between life and death when there's nothing left
Do you want to know?
You come in on your own
And you leave on your own
Forget the lovers you've know
And your friends on your own
Lies I've got to get rid of this whole inside
The drugstore wife
I was dealing soul and other white
I won't shake your hands
'Cause death has no plans
But here we are the rolling people
Can't stay for long
We gotta go
So come alive with the rolling poeple
Don't ask why
We just know
I'm on a big jet plane
With my briefcase and crime in my veins
I'll be the first to toast
To my rowdy soul
But here we are the rolling people
Don't ask why
We don't know
So come alive with the rolling people
Don't ask why
We just go now
Yeah
Don't even know which way I'm going to
The lights are on and I am feeling blue
I hope you know which way I'm going to fly
Thank you for my life
I said good night, good-bye
You see me going
But here we are the rolling people
Can't stay for long
We gotta go
So come alive with the rolling people
Don't ask why
We don't know now
Yeah
She came in a dream, Lord
No way to describe it,
It was in my head
I burn but I don't scream
No way to describe it,
It is in my head
I have seen things that I can't explain
Looking in through that window pane
Open your eyes and let me in
Don't go to think that I don't care
So...I see the door
I see the door
I see the door
It came in a dream, Lord
No way to describe it,
It was in my head
What's life without a scream, lover?
No way to describe it,
It was in my head
I have seen things that I can't explain
Looking through windows, feeling the same
I have seen moments I'd like to share
Scared that you don't want me there,
My lover
Scared that you don't want me there,
My lover
(It's a battle, it's a battle...)
Eyes they open wide
Eyes they open wide
I like the way
It was hate the way it is now
Lack of time and a wasted week end
You wore your lies like a filmstar
Eyes they open wide
Eyes they open wide
I like the way it was
Hate the way it is now
I was thinking maybe we could go outside
Let the night sky cool you foolish pride
Don't you feel alive these are you times and our highs
So take your time
I wonder which cup you drink from I hope it's mine
You always do that something
Sonething I'm not sure of but just for today
Let go and burn away
Cause I read you mind
I need it because it takes me where I can't find
Because you always do that something
Something I'm not sure of
but just for today
Let go and burn away
I was thinking maybe we could go outside
Let the night sky cool you foolish pride
Don't you feel alive these are you times and our highs
Slide Away burn away
Slide Away burn away
I read you mind
Yes, there's love if you want it
Don't sound like no sonnet, my lord
Yes, there's love if you want it
Don't sound like no sonnet, my lord
My lord
Why can't you see
That nature has its way of warning me
Eyes open wide
Looking at the heavens with a tear in my eye
Yes, there's love if you want it
Don't sound like no sonnet, my lord
Yes, there's love if you want it
Don't sound like no sonnet, my lord
My lord
Sinking faster than a boat without a hull
My lord
Dreaming about the day when I can see you there
My side
By my side
Here we go again and my head is gone, my lord
I stop to say hello
'Cause I think you should know, by now
By now
By now
By now
By now
By now
Oh, by now
Oh, by now
Oh, by now
Oh, by now
So sister, you're hearing how I miss her
But I don't think that she's hearing my calls
So sister, you're hearing how I miss her
But I don't think that she's hearing my calls

Just in case you call

But where are you?
So sister, you're hearing how I miss her
But I don't think that she's hearing my calls

I want to see if you know me
I was born in a rented room
My mother didn't get no flowers
Dad didn't approve of me, do you?
I'm alive with something inside of me
And I don't think I'm coming back
So come on come in inside of me
Let's spread it all around
Give me your powder and pills
I want to see if they cure my ills
I've no time for love and devotion
No time for old fashioned potion
Take a look into my eyes
I tell you so many lies and then I'll let you go into the night
And I don't think I'm coming down
I'm alive with something inside of me...
And I can't seem to get it out
I'm gonna die alone in bed
This is a tale of a northern soul
Looking for his way back home
And my friend said, "Come in side of me
And your speakers are telling the truth
Comming through and into your room on a river of sound"
This is a tale of a northern soul looking for his way back home
And if he sees it I know I'll know (repeat)
And there's fighting on the street below
I know there's fighting on the street below
But I dont' care coz I'm a Northern Soul
And I'm looking for a way back home
Too busy staying alive (repeat)
Too busy living a lie, too busy living my life
Too busy stayihg alive
Oh, can you just tell me
It's all right (It's all right)
Let me sleep tonight
Oh, can you comfort me
Tonight (It's all right)
Make it all seem fine
I just can't make it alone
Oh, no, no
I just can't make it alone
Oh, no, no
There'll be no lullabies
There'll be no tears cried
We feel numb 'cause we don't see
That if we really care
And we really loved
Think of all the joy we'd feel
Oh, can you just tell me
It's all right (It's all right)
Let me sleep tonight
Oh, can you comfort me
Tonight (It's all right)
Make it all seem fine
I just can't make it alone
Oh, no, no
I just can't make it alone
Oh, no, no
I just can't make it alone
Oh, no, no
I just can't make it alone
Oh, no, no
Ain't got no lullaby, no, no
Ain't got no lullaby, oh, no
There is no space and time
Oh lord
There is no space and time
Oh lord
We have existence and it's all we share
We have existence and it's all we share
We have existence and it's all we share
We have existence and it's all we share
We have existence and it's all we share
Keep on pushing 'cause I know it's there
Keep on pushing 'cause I know it's there
Keep on pushing 'cause I know it's there
Keep on pushing 'cause I know it's there
Hello it's me, it's me
I want to touch you
It's me throwing stones from the stars
On you mixed up world
Been Circling round for 20 years
And in that time I've seen all the fires and all the liars
I've been calling home for 20 years
And in that time I heard the screams rebound to me
While, you were making history
I could see the fire
And I'll throw the fire back down
Alone in my room you're there on the floor
Open up your eyes let me get inside
Learnt to love on TV
Learnt to love on TV
Can I help you?
Can I guide you?
It amazes me how I broke free
Then got brought back in
Cause when the feelings there shattered and scared
I know you've won goodbye I'm gone
Alone in my room, you're there on the floor
Open up your eyes let me get inside
Said you learnt to come on TV then hold on to me
Can I help you? Can I guide you?
And I know
She's in the air
And I don't want it to go
I can breathe the air
But I don't want it to go
She got my woe
Got my hand
Took the dreams
Right outta my head
She bought the world
I paid the bills
I took those pills
It was wind in her sails
She climbed so high
I don't know why
High, on her own
And I know
She's in the air
And I don't want it to go
I can breathe the air
But I don't want it to go
Lookin' back on my life
You know that all I see
Are things I could've changed
I could have done
No time for sad lament
A wasted life is bitter spent
So rise into the light
In or out of time
Gonna rise straight through the light
In or out of time
Woke up one other day
The pain won't go away
I am growing
In peculiar ways
Into a light I pass
Another dream, another trance
This time, this time
This time I'm gonna rise into the light
In or out of time
Gonna find my way in life
In or out of sight
I'm still seeing things in black and white
Gonna rise straight into the light
In or out of sight
I'm gonna see the light
I'm gonna see the light
I'm gonna see the light
'Cause I know there is time
There is time
There is time
There is time
There is time
There is time
There is time
There is time
This time, this time
This time, this time
This time, this time
This time, this time
Sometimes in life
I see familiar faces
In rooms, in the sky
Like ????? we've tasted
That's just the way it goes
Y'know we nearly died
That's just the way life is
Feels so good to be alive
Three steps to heaven, man
I took two and I sat back down again
Three steps to heaven, man
I took two and I sat back down again
It feels so good
To be alive
Three steps to heaven, man
I took two and I sat back down again
Three steps to heaven, man
I took two and I sat back down again
We nearly died
Come on (repeat)
It' alright, alright
Alright (repeat)
Come on (repeat)
Time
Stands still
As you take
Your last pill
Into the half light
Another velvet morning for me
And now I'm trying to tell you
About my life
And my tongue is twisted
And more dead than alive
And my feelings
They've always been betrayed
And I was born a little damaged man
And look what they made
I said, don't you find
That it's lonely
The corridor
You walk there alone
And life is a game
You've tried
And life is a game
You're tired
Yes
I'm coming down
Your beauty is
A color surround
Into the half light
Another velvet morning for me
And now I'm trying to tell you
About my life
And my tongue is twisted
And more dead than alive
And my feelings
My feelings, they've been betrayed
And I was born a little damaged man
And look what they made
He said, don't you find
That it's lonely
The corridor
You walk there alone
And life is a game
You've tried
And life is a game
You're tired
And life is a game
You've tried
Signs ar right
The sighs are here
Who needs virtual world
When I can see it now
I can see it now, oh now, oh now, now
No-one goes no-one a cares
No-one seen it anywhere
She's breathing into lone dead stars
Have you ever seen it
I ain't seen nothing at all
Come see the water break my fall
No-one knows no-one comes
Have you ever seen the book?
The one on my shelf
The one entitled self death, self death
How to earn a million pounds
I can see it now oh the hearse
She's breating down in a hole in my head
In the dirty half light were
Time means nothing at all
I'm calling out to some one
Anyone who'll have me?
Does anyone need me?
Does anyone know how to cry?
What happens when I go?
What happens when it snows?
I bet you could if you want'd to end
It was in our hands from 6 to 10
It slipped right out again
There'll be no better time
There'll be no better way
There'll be no better day to save me
Save me
Yeah, save me
I hope you see like I see
I hope you see what I see
I hope you feel like I feel
And the world don't stop
There is no time for cracking up
Believe me friend
'Cause when freedom comes
I'll be long gone
You know it has to end
There'll be no better time
There'll be no better way
There'll be no better day to save me
Save me
Yeah, save me
Yeah, save me
I hope you see what I see
I hope you feel like I feel
Someone to stand beside me
Beside me
Beside me
Beside me
Beside me
Weeping willow
The pills under my pillow
Weeping willow
Pills under my pillow
Weeping willow
The Gun under your pillow
Weeping willow
Beside me
Beside me
Beside me
Beside me
I know I seem discovered
But I'm buried deep inside
There's a hole so wide
You can see through it day or night
Come on and let me try
It's you and me against the world
But the world is learning
So knock on my door
And let my world start turning
And I was feeling low
You show me where this boy should go
Meet me at the end of the road
I need someone to hold
Yeah I need someone to hold
It's you and me against the world
But the world is learning
So knock on my door
And let my world start turning
I see it's up to me
And now we'll watch me suffer
Oh I see it's up to me
And now we'll watch me suffer
And no wonder
It's you and me against the world
But the world is learning
Don't you knock on my door
And let this world start turning
Start turning
Turning
I hope you are learning
I hope you are learning
Babe, I hope you are learning yeah
