a matter of feeling

How does it feel when everyone surrounds you
How do you deal the crowds just make you feel lonely
What do you say when people are gonna try and pin you down
Acquiantences smile but theres no understanding
How after awhile you keep falling off the same mountain
Try to explain it but nothing really gets them that high

Steal away in the morning love's already history to you
It's a habit you're forming this body's desperate for something new
Just a matter of feeling this moments madness sure to pass
And tears will dry as you're leaving who knows you might find something to last

Emotion's a game saved up for a rainy Monday
But your laughter's the same cause it's been pouring on Sunday
Call up your numbers never let the zeros bring you down
How does it feel as time too heavy to hold
Whatever you desire for the moment is holy
Whenever you slow down to to see life is passing by

Steal away in the morning love's alredy history to you
It's a habit you're forming this body's despearate for something new
Just a matter of feeling this moments madness sure to past
And tears will dry as your're leaving who knows you might find something to last

You can steal away in the morning love's already history to you
It's a habit you're forming this body's despearate for something new
Just a matter of feeling this moments madness sure to pass
And tears will dry as you're leaving who knows you might find something to last
Oh, oh matter of feeling, oh matter of feeling
When it comes you're still away matter of feeling
When it comes you're still away matter of feeling
You know your tears run dry matter of feeling

hold me

Yeah this time shall we walk shall we run through my head you understand
Does the body you conceal need the touch of someone's hand
Actions violations to hurt they burn oh in your isolation what you can't you see
(What can't you see, what can't you see) I wonder if the light is down
(What can't you see, what can't you see) I wonder if they're listening

Hold me lay you shame away show me where your lover stay
Hold me lay your ghost away show me for yourself

You are lost and alone but a prisoner of your pride
When the passions you ignore you can never hide
Cause one of these days you're gonna find out cause one of these days you're gonna try
And what did I say to make you wind up with that fear of guilt inside
(What have you done, what have you done) I wonder if the light is down
(What have you done, what have you done) I wonder if they're listening

Hold me lay your shame away show me where your lover stay
Hold me lay your ghost away show me for yourself

Na na na na na na, na na na na na na, na na na na na na-ah
Na na na na na na hold me na na na na na na show me
Na na na na na na na na na

Hold me lay your shame away show me where your lover stay
Hold me lay your ghost away show me for yourself

careless memories

So soon just after you've gone my senses sharpend
But it always takes so damn long before I feel how much my eyes have darkened

Fear hangs a plane of gunsmoke drifting in our room
So easy to disturb, with a thought with a whisper
With a careless memory with a careless memory

On the table signs of love lies scattered
And the walls break with a crashing within
It's not as though as though you really mattered
But being close how could I let you go without some feeling
Some precious sympathy following

Fear hangs a plane of gunsmoke drifting in our room
So easy to disturb, with a thought with a whisper
With a careless memory with a careless memory
With a careless memory with a careless memory

Oh I walk out into the sun I tried to find a new day
But the whole place it just screams in my eyes
Where are you now cause I don't want to meet you
I think I'd die I think I'd laugh at you I know I'd cry
What am I supposed to do follow you
Outside the thoughts come flooding back now I was trying to forget you

So easy to disturb with a thought with a whisper
With a careless memory with a careless memory
With a careless memory with a careless memory
With a careless memory

Look out look out look out look out

planet earth

Only came outside to watch night fall with the rain
I heard you making patterns rhyme like
Some new romantic looking for the TV sound
I'll see you're right some other time love

Look now look all around there's no sign of life
Voices another sound can you hear me now this is planet earth
You're looking at planet earth
Bop bop bop bop bop bop bop bop this is planet earth

My head is stuck on something precious let me know
If you're coming down to land is there
Anybody out there trying to get through
My eyes so cloudy I can't see you

Look now look all around there's no sign of life
Voices another sound can you hear me now this is planet earth
You're looking at planet earth
Bop bop bop bop bop bop bop bop this is planet earth

Look now look all around there's no sign of life
Voices another sound can you hear me now this is planet earth
You're looking at planet earth
Bop bop bop bop bop bop bop bop this is planet earth
Bop bop bop bop bop bop bop bop calling planet earth
Bop bop bop bop bop bop bop bop looking at planet earth
Bop bop bop bop bop bop bop bop this is planet earth

hold back the rain

Yes we're miles away from nowhere and the wind doesn't have a name
So call it what you want to call it still blows down the lane
People tell me I haven't changed at all but I don't feel the same
And I've bet you've had that feeling too you can't laugh all the time

And if the fires burn out there's only fire to blame (hold back the rain)
No time for worry cause we're on the roam again (hold back the rain)
The clouds all scatter and we ride the outside lane (hold back the rain)
Not on your own so help me please hold back the rain

So what if the words ain't rhyming did you thing that it's just a game
I probably didn't even say that right and i really don't give a damn
Okay go off and wander I'm guilty just the same
Sometimes you're needed badly so please come back again
And if the fires burn out there's only fire to blame (hold back the rain)
No time for worry cause we're on the roam again (hold back the rain)
The clouds all scatter and we ride the outside lane (hold back the rain)
Not on your own so help me please hold back the rain

And if the stars burn out there's only fire to blame (hold back the rain)
No time for worry cause we're on the roam again (hold back the rain)
The clouds all scatter and we ride the outside lane (hold back the rain)
Not on your own so help me please hold back the rain
Hold back the rain, hold back the rain. hold back the rain
Hold back the rain (hold back the rain), hold back the rain
(Hold back the rain), hold back the rain (hold back the rain)
Hold back the rain (hold back the rain), hold back the rain

girls on film

See them walking hand in hand across the bridge at midnight
Heads turning as the lights flashing out it's so bright
Then walk right out to the fourline track
There's a camera rolling on her back, on her back
And I sense the rhythm humming in a frenzy all the way down her spine

Girls on film, girls on film, girls on film, girls on film

Lipstick cherry all over the lens as she's falling
In miles of sharp blue water coming in where she lies
The diving man's coming up for air cause the crowd all love pulling dolly by the hair, by the hair
And she wonders how she ever got here as she goes under again

Girls on film (two minutes later), girls on film
Girls on film (got your picture), girls on film

Wider baby smiling you just made a million
Fuses pumping live heat twisting out on a wire
Take one last glimpse into the night I'm touching close I'm holding bright, holding tight
Give me shudders in a whisper take me up till I'm shooting a star

Girls on film (she's more than a lady), girls on film
Girls on film (two minutes later), girls on film
Girls on film (see you together), girls on film
Girls on film (see you later), girls on film
Girls on film (what ya doing), girls on film

the chauffer

Out on the tar planes the glides are moving all looking for a new place to drive
You sit beside me so newly charming sweating dew drops glisten freshen your side

And the sun drips down bedding heavy behind the front of your dress all shadowy lined
And the droning engines throb in time with your beating heart

Way down the lane away living for another day
The aphids swarm up in the drifting haze
Swim seagull in the sky towards that hollow western isle
My envied lady holds you fast in her gaze

And the sun drips down bedding heavy behind the front of your dress all shadowy lined
And the droning engine throbs in time with your beating heart
And the sun drips down bedding heavy behind the front of your dress all shadowy lined
And the droning engine throbs in time with your beating heart
Sing blue silver

And watching lovers part I feel you smiling
What glass splinters lie so deep in your mind
To tear out from your eyes with a thought to stiffin brooding lies
And I'll only watch you leave me further behind

And the sun drips down bedding heavy behind the front of your dress all shadowy lined
And the droning engine throbs in time with your beating heart
And the sun drips down bedding heavy behind the front of your dress all shadowy lined
And the droning engine throbs in time with your beating heart
Sing blue silver, sing sing blue silver

More of this kind of camoflauge more than just color and shape
Who's going now

MY OWN WAY

I saw you at the airace yesterday April showers get out of my way
Fear of flying no not me
I'm never bothered what you say someone's kid just lives for today
It ain't your problem anyway

Cause I've got my own way, I can find my own way, cause I've got my own way
Cause I've got my own way, I can find my own way, cause I've got my own way

Number one public figure what a pain just puts another rattle in your brain
Take another green but it's not the same
So now you're on the sandland everyday dancing with the bulls in any old way
Running like a fox to keep up with me

Cause I've got my own way, I can find my own way, cause I've got my own way
Cause I've got my own way, I can find my own way, cause I've got my own way

I'm on 45 between 6th and Broadway, 45 between 6th and Broadway 45
I'm drinking 7UP between 6th and Broadway 7UP between 6th and Broadway, 7UP

Cause I've got my own way, I can find my own way, cause I've got my own way
Cause I've got my own way, I can find my own way, cause I've got my own way

NEW RELIGION

I've been now sauntering out and down a path sometime
Come on it takes me nowhere which I know
Faces everywhere pulling grins and signs and things
Telling me not there man it's no go (don't go there boy)
I need a reason I can't think without one now too much learning go to show
Call it treason maybe catch her don't know how too many things to much to know
I bring my timing in seagulls gather on the wind lady screaming lady leave me out
Cause sometimes people stare sitting down electric chair
Steaming crowds they gather and they shout
Take another chance boy carry the fight you can take him if you're fast
Didn't I say if you're holding on you'd be laughing at the last
I get along fine with them friends of mine but you have to make the choice
You're singing out of tune but the beats in time and it's us who makes the noise
Don't know why this evil bothers me
So why is he trying to follow me
How many reasons do they need
I might just believe this time
I'm talking for free I can't stop myself it's a new religion oh
I've something to see I can't help myself it's a new religion

Okay my reasoning might be clouded by the sun but someone see the departmental lie
You know this peace time jabbing fist and stabbing knife
Only get one look before you die
Take another chance boy carry the fight you can take him if you're fast
Didn't I say if you're holding on you'd be laughing at the last
I get along fine with them friends of mine but you have to make the choice
You're singing out of tune but the beats in time and it's us who makes the noise
Don't know why this evil bothers me
So why is he trying to follow me
How many reasons do they need
I might just believe this time
I'm talking for free I can't stop myself it's a new religion oh
I've something to see I can't help myself it's a new religion

Ooo gotta take pay for the saint's and sinners in regulation hats and scarves and things
Walk in formation down the lane they carry their cross make a church bell ring
(Bring the army down) Army majors pull a mean cool truth they're lying by the swimming pool
Searching for the undeniable truth that a man is just a fool
Take another chance boy carry the fight you can take him if you're fast
Didn't I say if you're holding on you'd be laughing at the last
I get along fine with them friends of mine but you have to make the choice
You're singing out of tune but the beats in time and it's us who makes the noise
Don't know why this evil follows me
So why is he trying to bother me
How many reasons do they need
I might just be right this time
I'm talking for free i can stop myself it's a new religion oh
I've something to see I can't help myself it's a new religion yeah
I'm talking for free I can't stop myself it's a new religion oh
I've something to see I can't help myself it's a new religion

RIO

Moving on the floor now babe you're a bird of paradise
Cherry ice cream smile I suppose it's very nice
With a step to your left and a flick to the right you catch that mirror way out west
You know you're something special and you look like you're the best

Her name is Rio and she dances on the sand
Just like that river twisting through a dusty land
And when she shines she really shows you all she can
Oh Rio, Rio dance across the Rio Grande

I've seen you on the beach and I've seen you on TV
Two of a billion stars it means so much to me
Like a birthday or a pretty view
But then I'm sure that you know it's just for you

Her name is Rio and she dances on the sand
Just like that river twisting through a dusty land
And when she shines she really shows you all she can
Oh Rio, Rio dance across the Rio Grande

Hey now woo look at that did she nearly run you down
At the end of the drive the lawmen arrive
You make me feel alive, alive alive
I'll take my chance cause luck is on my side or something
I know what you're thinking I tell you something I know what you're thinking

Her name is Rio and she dances on the sand
Just like that river twists across a dusty land
And when she shines she really shows you all she can
Oh Rio, Rio dance across the Rio Grand
Her name is Rio she don't need to understand
And I might find her if I'm looking like I can
Oh Rio, Rio hear them shout across the land
From mountains in the north down to the Rio Grande
Do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do

Is there something I should Know

Please please tell me now, please please tell me now
Please please tell me now, please please tell me now

I made a break I run out yesterday tried to find my mountain hideaway
Maybe next year maybe no go
I know you're watching me every minute of the day yeah
I've seen the signs and the looks and the pictures that give your game away yeah
There's a dream that strings the road a broken glass for us to hold
And I cut so far before I had to say

Please please tell me now is there something I should know
Is there something I should say that'll make you come my way
Do you feel the same cause you don't let it show

Oh oh, oh, oh people stare and cross the road from me
oh oh, And jungle drums they all clear the way for me
Can you read my mind can you see in the snow
And firey deamons all dance when you walk through that door
Don't say you're easy on me you're about as easy as a nuclear war There's a dream that strings the road with broken glass for us to hold
And I cut so far before I had to say

Please please tell me now is there something I should know
Is there something I should say that'll make you come my way
Do you feel the same cause you don't let it show

Please please tell me now is there (please please tell me now)something I should know
Is there (please please tell me now) something I should say
That'll (please please tell me now) make you come my way
Please please tell me now can you see (please please tell me now) what makes me blow
Can you (please please tell me now) see how much I'd die
Everytime (please please tell me now) it passes by
Please please tell me now what it (please please tell me now) takes to make it show
Is there (please please tell me now) something I should know
Is there (please please tell me now) something I should know

NEW MOON ON MONDAY

Shake up the picture the lizard mixture with your dance on the eventide
You got me coming up with answers all of which I deny
I've said it again but could I please rephrase it
Maybe I can catch a ride I couldn't really put it much plainer but I'll wait till you decide
Send me your warning siren as if I could ever hide

Last time la luna I light my torch and wave it for the new moon on Monday
And a firedance through the night I stayed the cold day with a lonely sattelite
New moon on Monday and a firedance through the night
I stayed the cold day with a lonely sattelite

Breaking away with the beast of both worlds a smile that you can't disguise
But every minute I keep finding clues that you leave behind
Save me from these reminders as if I forget tonight

This time la luna I light my torch and wave it for the new moon on Monday
And a firedance through the night I stayed the cold day with a lonely sattelite
New moon on Monday and a firedance through the night
I stayed the cold day with a lonely sattelite

I light my torch and wave it for the new moon on Monday
And a firedance through the night
I stayed the cold day with a lonely sattelite
New moon on Monday and a firedance through the night
I stayed the cold day with a lonely sattelite
New moon on Monday and a firedance through the night (firedance through the night)
I stayed the cold day with (I light my torch and wave it for the) a lonely sattelite
New moon on Monday and a firedance through the night (firedance through the night)
I stayed the cold day with a (I light my torch and wave it for the)
New moon on Monday and a firedance through the night (firedance through the night)
I stayed the cold day with a (I light my torch and wave it for the)lonely sattelite

HUNGRY LIKE A WOLF

Darken the city night is awire steam in the subway earth is afire
Do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do
Woman you want me give me a sign and catch my breathing even closer behind
Do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do

In touch with the ground I'm on the hunt I'm after you
Smell like I sound I'm lost in a crowd and I'm hungry like the wolf
Straddle the line in discord and rhyme I'm on the hunt I'm after you
Mouth is alive with juices like whine and I'm hungry like the wolf

Stalked in the forest too close to hide I'll be upon you by the moonlight side
Do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do
High blood drumming on your skin it's so tight you feel my heat I'm just a moment behind
Do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do

In touch with the ground I'm on the hunt I'm after you
Scent and a sound I'm lost and I'm found and I'm hungry like the wolf
Strut on a line it's discord and rhyme I howl and I whine I'm after you
Mouth is alive all running inside and I'm hungry like the wolf

Hungry like the wolf, hungry like the wolf, hungry like the wolf

Burning the ground I break from the crowd I'm on the hunt I'm after you
I smell like I sound I'm lost and I'm found and I'm hungry like the wolf
Strut on a line it's discord and rhyme I'm on the hunt I'm after you
Mouth is alive with juices like wine and I'm hungry like the wolf
Burning the ground I break from the crowd I'm on the hunt I'm after you
Scent and a sound I'm lost and I'm found and I'm hungry like the wolf
Strut on a line it's discord and rhyme I howl and I whine I'm after you
Mouth is alive all running inside and I'm hungry like the wolf

UNION OF THE SNAKE

Telegram force and ready I knew this was a big mistake
There's a fine line drawing my senses together
And I think it's about to break
If I listen close I can hear them singers oh-oh-oh
Voices in your body coming through on the radio-oh-oh

The union of the snake is on the climb
Moving up it's gonna race it's gonna break through the borderline

Nightshades on a warning give me strenth at least give me a light
Give me anything even sympathy there's a chance you could be right
If I listen close I can hear them singers oh-oh-oh

the reflex

The Reflex - Duran Duran

You've gone too far this time but I'm dancing on the valentine
I tell you somebody's fooling around with my chances on the dangerline
I'll cross that bridge when I find it another day to make my stand oh-woah
High time is no time for deciding if I should find a helping hand oh-whoa
Why don't you use it try not to bruise it buy time don't lose it
Why don't you use it try not to bruise it buy time don't lose it

The reflex is a lonely child just waiting by the park
The reflex is in charge of finding a treasure in the dark
And watching over lucky clover isn't that bizarre
Every little thing the reflex does leaves you answered with a question mark

I'm on a ride and I wanna get off but they won't slow down the roundabout
I sold the Renoir and the TV set don't wanna be around when this gets out
So why don't you use it try not to bruise it buy time don't lose it
Why don't you use it try not to bruise it buy time don't lose it

The reflex is a lonely child he's waiting in the park
The refelx is in charge of finding a treasure in the dark
And watching over lucky clover isn't that bizarre
Every little thing the reflex does leaves you answered with a question mark

So why don't you use it try not to bruise it buy time don't lose it
Why don't you use it try not to bruise it buy time don't lose it

The reflex is a lonely child just waiting by the park
The reflex is in charge of finding treasure in the dark
And watching over lucky clover isn't that bizarre
Every little thing the reflex does leaves me answered with a question mark
Oh the reflex what a game he's hiding all the cards
The reflex is in charge of finding a treasure in the dark
And watching over lucky clover isn't that bizarre
Everylittle thing the reflex does leaves you answered with a question mark

the wild boys

The Wild Boys - Duran Duran

Wild boys, wild boys, wild boys, wild boys
Wild (wild) boys (boys, boys)
The wild boys are calling on there way back from the fire
In August moon's surrender to a dust cloud on the rise
Wild boys fallen far from glory reckless and so hungered
On the razors edge you trail because there's murder (murder, murder)
By the roadside in a sore afraid new world
They tried to break us looks like they'll try again

Wild boys (wild boys) never lose it wild boys (wild boys) never chose this way
Wild boys (wild boys) never close your eyes wild boys always shine

You got sirens for their welcome there's bloodstain for your pain
And your telephone been ringing while you're dancing in the rain
Wild boys wonder where is glory where is all you angels
Now the figureheads have fell (fell, fell) And lovers war with arrows over secrets they could tell
They tried to tame you looks like they'll try again

Wild boys (wild boys) never lose it wild boys (wild boys) never chose this way
Wild boys (wild boys) never close your eyes wild boys always shine

Wild boys wild boys wild boys wild boys wild boys wild boys wild boys

Wild boys (wild boys) never lose it wild boys (wild boys) never chose this way
Wild boys (wild boys) never close your eyes wild boys always
(Wild boys, wild boys) never lose it (wild boys, wild boys) never chose this way
Wild boys (wild boys) never close your eyes wild boys always
Wild boys (wild boys) never lose it wild boys (wild boys) never chose this way
Wild boys (wild boys) never close your eyes widl boys always wild boys (wild boys)

SAVE A PRAYER

You saw me standing by the wall corner of a main street
And the lights are flashing on your window sill
All alone ain't much fun so you're looking for the thrill
And you know just what it takes and where to go

Don't say a prayer for me now, save it till the morning after
No don't say a prayer for me now, save it till the morning after

Feel the breeze deep on the inside look you down into your well
If you can you'll see the world in all his fire
Take a chance like all dreamers can't find another way
You don't have to dream at all just live a day

Don't say a prayer for me now, save it till the morning after
No don't say a prayer for me now, save it till the morning after
Save it till the morning after, save it till the morning after

Pretty looking road I try to hold the rising floods that fill my skin
Don't ask me why I'll keep my promise melt the ice
And you wanted to dance so I asked you to dance but fear is in yor soul
Some people call it a one night stand but we can call it paradise

Don't say a prayer for me now, save it till the morning after
No don't say a prayer for me now, save it till the morning after
Save it till the morning after, save it till the morning after
Save it till the morning after, save it till the morning after
Save a prayer till the morning after, save a prayer till the morning after
Save a prayer till the morning after, save a prayer till the morning after
Save a prayer till the morning after

A VIEW TO A KILL

Duran Duran - A View To A Kill (Art Of Noise Mix) - Duran Duran

Meeting you with a view to a kill face to face in secret places feel the chill
Nightfall covers me but you know the plans I'm making
Still over sea could it be the whole earth opening wide
A sacred why a mystery gaping inside the weekends why until we

Dance into the fire that fatal kiss is all we need
Dance in the the fire to fatal sounds of broken dreams
Dance in to the fire that fatal kiss is all we need dance into the fire

Choice for you is the view to a kill between the shades assasination standing still
First crystal tears fall of snowflakes on your body
First time in years to drench your skin with lovers rosy stain
A chance to find a phoenix for the flame a chance to die but can we
Dance into the fire that fatal kiss is all we need
Dance into the fire to fatal sounds of broken dreams
Dance into the fire that fatal kiss is all we need
Dance into the fire when all we see is the view to a kill

COME UNDONE

Come Undone - Duran Duran

Mine, immaculate dream made breath and skin
I've been waiting for you
Signed, with a home tattoo,
Happy birthday to you was created for you

(can't ever keep from falling apart
At the seams
Can't I believe you're taking my heart
To pieces)
Oh, it'll take a little time,
Might take a little crime
To come undone now
We'll try to stay blind
To the hope and fear outside
Hey child, stay wilder than the wind
And blow me in to cry
Who do you need, who do you love
When you come undone
Words, playing me deja vu
Like a radio tune I swear I've heard before
Chill, is it something real
Or the magic I'm feeding off your fingers
(Can't ever keep from falling apart
At the seams
Can I believe you're taking my heart
To pieces)
Lost, in a snow filled sky, we'll make it alright
To come undone now

andy taylor - when the rain comes

There's a change of heart
And you're in a race
And you don't know where it ends

In another world
Where you're upside down
Trying to make amends

Whoa, I don't believe what I see and I hear
Whoa, I can't explain what is here but it's here
Whoa

When the rain comes down
When the rain comes down

Time to start with a different face
I gotta get out of here
I'll take my chance in a different place
Now my mind is clear

Whoa, I don't believe what I see and I hear
Whoa, I can't explain what is here but it's here
Whoa

john taylor - i do what i do

notoriety

You say I never pay attention
What makes you think I look the other way?
You let me be the judge
I don't believe what they say

Your name came up in conversation yesterday
My best bet was to feign indifference
You've got an awful reputation by the way
The table made a joke at your expense
Didn't believe a word
I don't believe what they say
It smacked of jealousy
I know it's only notoriety

My reputation might precede me baby
Forget the rumours and the hearsay
You think I never pay attention to you
I guess you think I look the other way
I don't care what you've heard
Why d'you believe what they say?
I'll come to your defense
You know it's only notoriety

To hell with our outrageous fortune baby
We've got a sea of troubles in our sights
We don't need recklessness or caution
To catch the gossip-mongers dead to rights
Let them all speculate
They ain't got a clue anyway
Just use your common sense
You know it's only notoriety

Hear no evil and speak no evil
See no evil lest it come your way

Power trippin'

Don't wanna push you around
You know I think that you're boss
Let's work out some middle ground
Say heads or tails and then toss

Power trippin' - taking turns
The things you want to teach you need to learn
Power trippin' - it's your go
I'll share the drive-in with you - quid pro quo
You know which buttons to push

I like being under your thumb
Better to squeeze than to crush
I love it when you succumb
Power trippin' - switching roles

I know you like it when I lose control
Power trippin' - swapping sides
Let's just relax, kick back enjoy the ride

Long as we're set up in the partnership
We take our turns being on a power trip
Don't care which one of us is running the show
Long as it's R&B and rock&roll

I know you're such a power house
No need for such a display
I can't visit your dog house
It's too far out of my way

Power trippin' - takin' turns
The things you want to teach you need to learn
Power trippin' - it's your go
I'll share the drive-in with you - quid pro quo

You call the shots and I'll call the tune
I'll crack the whip and you rule the room
I'll wear the pants and you pull the strings
Don't waste your energy on foolish things

The ace I'm holding is meant for you
I couldn't pull a power trip on you
As long as one of us is in control
Turn up the power and let's rock and roll

scared

You never said you'd love me like you do
You said you'd never hurt me like you do
You can't seem to decide
If you're in love with me

Scared

You say you're losing your identity
You say you've sacrificed your freedom to me
You won't commit to me
'Til I submit to you

Scared

You're not the only one who feels confused
Sooner or later you will have to choose
I can't make up my mind
Where I will draw the line

Scared

She loves you - she loves you not
She's only scared
Forget me - forget me not
You're only scared

She can rock it

She got goose-egg power-chords
And a nasty 2 & 4, she can rock it
She can tap in 32
She can show you her tattoo - she can rock it

What good's a rock without a roll?
It's a sorry lookin' donut if it doesn't have a hole
She gets so hot, she's infra-red
She can show you a position that's prohibited

She's got kisses like cocaine
She's got access to a plane - she can rock it
Check out her anatomy
In her trashy lingerie - she can rock it

She's got an axe, she's got a rig
You know she'll never miss a beat-
And she ain't never missed a gig
She'll pin you down, she'll knock you out
She can wrestle with your ego
'Til your pride goes out

She can rock it

She's a shake that comes with fries
Never listens to your lies - she can rock it
She can set your pants on fire
She can strip you to the wire - she can rock it

She can nail you to a frame
Say that you're the one to blame - she can rock it
She can tell you what to wear
She can strip your conscience bare
She can rock it

shut up

Get 'em off me, get 'em off me

Get their hands and their legs from above me
When you want it and you need it
But you can't seem to quite understand it

Get 'em off me, get 'em off me

Take their legs and their elbows from around me
Schizophrenia don't mean that you're living -
In the world not a dream

I said shut up, you're not incurably ill
You got the motivation, you got the pill
Don't mess it up, I go down on my knees
Don't blow it big time babe, I'm begging you please

I said shut up

I said shut up
What you complaining about?
You got the tonic money, you got the truth

Don't mess it up
Let's stick together on this
We got everything and more, so baby -
Why should we quit?

I said shut up

still in your heart

The night you met, it was a magic start
All the connections were made in your heart
Following you everywhere, you could feel her eyes -
A glimpse of somebody, takes you by surprise

Another place and day, now where's she gone?
You can't forget her face, or things you left undone
Re-run memories from the start -
The time has flown
All the time you've been appart
And she's still in your heart

Try as you might the recollections stay
Like a photographic memory of each day
You can feel her by your side in an empty room -
And words like 'forever', you spoke too soon

Another place and day, now where's she gone?
You can't forget her face, or things you wish you'd done
Re-run memories from the start -
The time has flown
Where's end ending and the start?
Is she still in your heart?

Taxman

Let me tell you how it will be
There's one for you, nineteen for me
'Cos I'm the taxman - yeah, I'm the taxman

Should five percent appear too small
Be thankful I don't take it all
'Cos I'm the taxman - yeah, I'm the taxman

If you drive a car I'll tax the street
If you try to sit I'll tax your seat
If you get too cold I'll tax the heat
If you take a walk I'll tax your feet

(Taxman)

'Cos I'm the taxman - yeah, I'm the taxman

Don't ask me what I want it for
(Taxman Mr. Clinton)
If you don't want to pay some more
(Taxman VAT)
'Cos I'm the taxman - yeah, I'm the taxman
And my advice for those who die
(Taxman)
Declare those pennies on your eyes
(Taxman)
'Cos I'm the taxman - yeah, I'm the taxman
And you're working for no one but me
(Taxman)

Some like it hot

We want to multiply, are you gonna do it?
I know you qualify, are you gonna do it?
Don't be so circumscribe, are you gonna do it?
Just get yourself untied, are you gonna do it?

Feel the heat, pushing you to decide
Feel the heat, burning you up, ready or not

Some like it hot and some sweat when the heat is on
Some feel the heat and decide that they can't go on
Some like it hot, but you can't tell how hot 'til you try
Some like it hot, so lets turn up the heat 'til we fry

The girl is at your side, are you gonna do?
She wants to be your bride, are you gonna do it?
She wants to multiply, are you gonna do it?
I know you won't be satisfied, until you do it!

Feel the heat, pushing you to decide
Feel the heat, burning you up, ready or not

Some like it hot and some sweat when the heat is on
Some feel the heat and decide that they can't go on
Some like it hot, but you can't tell how hot 'til you try
Some like it hot, so lets turn up the heat 'til we fry

Feel the heat, pushing you to decide
Feel the heat, burning you up, ready or not

Some like it hot and some sweat when the heat is on
Some feel the heat and decide that they can't go on
Some like it hot, but you can't tell how hot 'til you try
Some like it hot, so lets turn up the heat 'til we fry

Some like it hot.. some like it hot
Some like it hot.. some like it hot
Some like it hot... some like it hot
Some like it hot... some like it hot!

say the word

There's a skill, it's nothing we could learn at school
With a will to survive beneath this rule
Money thrives as corruptions president
Waste the life of the yong and innocent
But after all and the resistant can be disobeyed
So, when we call, please don't think twice or be afraid
Hey, mister, say something

Say the word - if your eyes are open (this time we try)
Say the word - before this love is broken

(say the word)


The lights are down, but you don't sleep so tight
The words around that we play for keeps tonight
As we all know even the best made plans go wrong sometimes
But if it blows well be the ones they victimize
Hey, mister, say something

ha

The Flame

I could feel the breeze blowing chance
Blowing through my doorway
Warm and restless just as you walked by
Inside of smoky halls a circle drawn
And voices call
To raise some magic wind in my world
Strange coincidence each time you look my way
This sinking feeling scares me
Know my weakness call it dejavu
Never puy my trust in fate suprises do arrive so late
Why should I be suprised by you
Straight to the heart straight for this precious shining
How do you dare step into my flame
One from the heart, one for this precious shining
How can you steel my flame
Sometimes cards are drawn and the tables turn
The waiting game is over
Take this dealers hand and steal away the dawn
Don't give me any chance to wander back from this innocence
Don't give me any chances at all

missing

And as I wander down to where you lay
The blood rushed up to meet the roses
In your hair
I thought I saw you smile
But now I don't see you anywhere
Whispering your love song in my ear
How can you touch me
When you're not really there?

Stumbling out I made my way towards the open door
Climbing fast the sun broad streaming
Laughter down into your empty gaze
Where can I find out
How I want to join in your games
I hear you calling
I hear you ... calling calling calling calling
Whispering your love song in my ear
How can you touch me?
How do you really dare?

goodbye is forever

Sometimes you have no choice
Sometimes you've got no voice to say
Say if you will the words--
Say if your world is so gray
We can decide this
There'll be no tears--
No tradgedy
Sure I wouldn't break and cry, if...
You walk away--
Believe me

Hey, goodbye
Goodbye is--forever
Hey, forever
Goodbye is--forever
And ever...

Sometimes it makes no sense,
This side of cruel coincidence
Caught up in our own barbed wire
To set us free
Belive this--

Hey, goodbye
Goodbye is--forever
Hey, forever
Goodbye is--forever
And ever...

The Promise

Whose tears on a gaping voice
Who's stretching arms match
The hunger of mine
There lips will they never join
But always draw me closer
And further entwined
With a promise dealer understand
All freedoms fade away
To a point of view
Where many different pathways meet
And we're standing on this precipice
With nothing much to gain save
But the deep blue screams
Of falling dreams
With our next move
Heaven hide your eyes
Heaven's eyes will never dry
The shades of a thousand steel
Come flashing by my face
In the fury of war
In desolation and abandoned fields
The hungry make their stand
When they'll stand for no more
Hear the passion in their voices
See the heaven in their eyes
Their hopes and schemes are waiting
Dreams of less than paradise
And sometimes we make promises
We never mean to keep
For blackmail is the only deal
A promise dealer sees
Heaven hide your eyes
Heaven's eyes will never dry

Lady Ice

- rose arcana (instrumental)
- lady ice


Lady Ice slips into her soul
Lady Ice leaves a house so cold
Lady Ice did you know
That the world was lonely too
Drifting snows
Searching plains and high
TUrning stones as she looks
For the heart somebody stole

She knows the violation
In lovers arms without occasion
But who knows where to find
A true heart for Lady Ice
Mesmerised
In the candle flame
Compromised by the cruel bands
Of steel around her breasts

She knows the desolation
Of lover's arms their isolation
But who knows where to find
A true heart for Lady Ice
Lady's eyes slip away
To the part she plays in school
She knows of roles and hideaways
Suppose she knows but turns away
SHe knows where to find
A true heart for Lady Ice

Lady Ice
Step outside your soul
lady Ice do you know
That the world is frightened too

Keep Me In The Dark

When the evening sunlight's fingers
Stretch across the floor
Cover up your eyes with feathers
Softly close the door
Take me in your heavy lips
Take me where the shadows slide
i need your blind for secret
honeys pass and blues
The lacey intrigue of this weekend
Should not be abused
You can take me where you want
But could you take me all the time
Away yeah oh wait a little longer
Don't go too far
I wouldn't lie
I wouldn't like you
Keeping me in the dark

Tender is the truce I'm tasting
But watching you dictates
Heady nights of sleepless wasting
A face I can't escape
We could wave the world goodbye
To all of the boys cheerio
Away yeah oh wait a little longer
Don't go too far
I wouldn't lie
I wouldn't like you
Keeping me in the dark

Help me cause I'm sinking deeper
Tell me what to say
When without words you call me closer
Each time you turn away
Something inside you cries
But it is something I'll never find
Away yeah oh wait a little longer
Don't go too far
I wouldn't lie
I wouldn't like to think you were
Keeping me in the dark

Election Day

Wild kind of look to the day
opening eyes impale neon flickers.
She moon
she turning away
the city's her slave.
He's cheating his mistress.
She's moody and grey
She's mean and she's restless - so restless.
All over you as they say
Rumours or rivals yell at the strike force.
Hi guys
by the way
Are you aware you're being illegal?
It's making your saviour
Behaviour look evil.
Maximum big surprise
Your smile is somethiI@g I@ew.
I pull my shirt off and pray
We're sacred and bound
To suffer the heatwave.
Pull my shirt off and pray
We're coming up on re-election day.
Stretching my luck down the way
to your invlLanon stretchlng my body
Use your intuitive play
'cause maybe we have more playtime than money.
Maximum big surprise
she knows something new.
I pull my shirt off and pray
I'm saving myself to suffer the heatwave.
Pull my shirt off and pray
we're coming up on re-election day.
By roads and backways a lover's chance down wind
Cut open murmurs and sounds becalm hands on skin
Saving some time to slip away we could dance!
Shouldn't be asking wild and scheming
could be my election day.
Maximum big surprise
you know something new. . . .
Re-election day !

El Diablo

Enter newborn players and gather
Weight their innocence
Only the brightest shine
But not forever
Many lights die
Many tears rain
When those tears run dry
On a mountain madness day
You were just in time
For a foolish deal for love I sold
Can't stand another howling day
Inside this empty skin
While the beacons burn
I'll say
Await return
From so far away
One life with the devil do I play
For so long
El diablo is to blame

Oh...
Oh el diablo, el diablo
Won't you sell me back my soul
Oh el diablo, el diablo
Won't you sell me back my soul

Wedding is on the wind
Does she blow my way
She can dance and she can sing
She will tear your heart away
While the promise burns
I'll stay
And you will return
From so far away
One life within the devil do I play
It's been for so long
El diablo is to blame
One life but the devil is in my way

Oh...
Oh el diablo, el diablo
Won't you sell me back my soul
Oh el diablo, el diablo
Won't you sell me back my soul

Zoom In

Stood on the line
You understand
I've been waiting forever
Come rain come shine
In the wind in the snow
In the filty weather
You've got it all worked out
Ya but it knocks you out
But I'm zooming in

Now she arrives
In a flaming crash
Like a falling star
Heading straight for the dive
Gonna make some cash
With the avatar

You got it all worked out
I know you know
I don't want you to go
Ya but it knocks you out
I'm zooming in on you on you

Don't look back you're a heart attack [x4]
You've got it all worked out
Ya but it knocks you out

We're not alone
In the 2nd life
There are millions like us
Right here
In the stones
In the air too bright
All the new insiders

You've got it all worked out
I know you know
I don't want you to go
Ya but it knocks you out
I'm zooming in on you on you

Na na na na na na
I know you know
I don't want you to go
Na na na na na na
I'm zooming in and out on you

Who Do You Think You Are

I'm giving you the news your domination's through
You gave the best you've got now I'm out on top
If you're in any doubt listen to me I've gotta right to say
If you know what it's all about who do you think you are
Don't wanna be your enemy if I'm not the one you want me to be
And I've gotta do things the way that I do
Always trying to control who do you think you are
Our time on earth is running through (It's not a question of my pride)
Sometimes I bring it again to you (Ever wonder how I feel inside)
And sometimes I play along but man I've gotta mind
You've gotta live with yourself for the rest of your life
Do you understand everybody asks that type of question who do you think you are
Why do you feel ashamed when you can't explain there are things I say to other people
It's just occurred to me the possibility the thought that you might really want to be me

White Lines

Free rock, free rock, free rock, free rock
Ah, ah, ah, ah
White ooo white, white ooo white, white ooo white, white ooo
(White lines) Vision dreams of passion (blowing through my mind) and all the while I think of you
(High fry) A very strange reaction (burns to unwind) the more I see the more I do
Something of phenomenon turn your back to come along cause white lines blow away
Blow, rock, blow
Ticket to ride the white line highway tell all your friends hey go my way
Pay your toll sell your soul pound for pound it costs more than gold
The longer you stay the more you pay my white lines go a long way
Either up your nose or through your veins with nothing to gain except killing your brain

Free (say rock come on ya'all) rock (say freeze come on)
Free (say rock come on ya'all) rock (say freeze come on)
Free (say rock come on ya'all) rock (say freeze come on)
Free (say rock come on ya'all) rock
Ah (higher baby), ah (get higher baby), ah (get higher baby) Ah (and don't never come down) freebase
White lines (pure as the driven snow) connected to my mind
(And now I'm having fun baby) high fry (it's getting kinda low)
Cause it makes you feel so nice (I need some one on one baby)
Don't let it blow your mind away (baby) go on to your little hideaway
Cause white lines (what do white lines do) blow away
Blow, rock, blow
A million magic crystals painted pure and white
A multi-million dollars almost overnight
Twice as sweet a sugar twice as pure as salt and if you get hooked baby
It's nobody elses fault so don't do it

Free (say rock come on ya'all) rock (say freeze come on)
Free (say rock come on ya'all) rock (say freeze come on)
Free (say rock come on ya'all) rock (say freeze come on)
Free (say rock come on ya'all) rock
Put 'em up, put 'em up, put 'em up, put 'em up
Ah (higher baby), ah (get higher baby), ah (get higher baby)
Ah (and don't never come down) freebase

Don't you get too high (don't you get too high baby)
Turns you on (you really turn me on and on)
Could you ever come down (my temperature is rising)
When the thrill is gone (no I don't want you to go)
A streetkid gets arrested gonna do some time
He got out three years from now just to commit more crime
A businessman is caught with 24 kilos
He's out on bail and out of jail and that's the way it goes
Rock cake sugar sugar cake cake sugar sugar cake
Atheletes rejected govenors corrected gangsters thugs and smugglers
Are thoroughly respected the money gets divided the women get excited
Now I'm broke and it's no joke it's hard as hell to fight it don't buy it

Free (say rock come on ya'all) rock (say freeze come on)
Free (say rock come on ya'all) rock (say freeze come on)

What Happens Tomorrow

Child, don't you worry
It's enough your growing up in such a hurry
Brings you down, the news they sell ya
To put in your mind that all mankind is a failure

But nobody knows
What's gonna happen tomorrow
We try not to show
How frightened we are

If you love me, I'll protect you
However I can
You've got to believe
It'll be alright in the end

Fighting because we're so close
There are times we punish those who we need the most
Though we can't wait for a saviour
Only got ourselves to blame for this behaviour

And nobody knows
What's gonna happen tomorrow
We try not to show
How frightened we are

Would seem lonely
If you were the only
star in the night?

You've got to believe
It'll be alright in the end
You've got to believe
It'll be alright again

Time is a ribbon, a silent icy river (froze us all)
Running deep, deep and fast
Enough to get lost down in the flow
Crashing around
These tiny lives mean everything

And nobody knows
What's gonna happen tomorrow
So don't let go
Now we've come this far

Hold my hand please
Understand me
You're never alone

We've got to believe
It'll be alright in the end
(Nobody knows)
You've got to believe
It'll be alright my friend
Da, da, da, da

And yes we believe
It'll be alright again
(Nobody knows)

We Need You

Time will see we're not searching for a wild excuse
To put emotions back on hold
Too much has gone down we know what you're doing
But do you feel the same way
You look sharp inside your pointed shoes
I have this picture hanging in my room
And I refuse to take you down or shake you down
We could bring you gently round if that's what you choose
For a point of view coz words like sand just get blown away
All those things we'd like to say

We need you [Repeat ad lib and end]

Watching The Detectives

Nice girls not one with the defects cellophane shrink wrapped so correct
Red dogs under illegal legs she looks so good that he gets down and begs

She's watching the detectives oh he's so cute she's watching the detectives
Oh and they shoot

They beat him up until the tear drops start but he can't be wounded cause he's got no heart
Long shot of that jumping sign invisible shivers running Cut the baby taking off her clothes close up of the sign that says we never close
You snatch a tune you match a cigarette she pulls the eyes out with a face like a magnet
I don't know how much more of this I can take
She's filing her nails while they're dragging the lake

She's watching the detectives oh he's so cute
She's watching the detectives and they shoot
She's watching the detectives oh he's so cute
She's watching the detectives oh as they shoot, shoot, shoot

They beat him up until the teardrops start but he can't be wounded cause he's got no heart
You think you're alone until you realize you're in it
Our fear is here to stay love is here for a visit
They call it instant justice when it's past the legal limit
There's someone scratching at the window I wonder who is it
The detectives come and check if you belong to the parents
Who are ready to hear the worst about their daughters disappearance
Though it nearly took a miracle to get you to stay
It only took my little fingers to blow you away
She's, she's watching oh she's watching oh
She's watching the detectives oh and they shoot
She's watching the detectives oh and they shoot
she's watching the detectives oh as they shoot, shoot, shoot

Want You More!

You had plans all along
Musta seen me coming down a mile reove the ground
Coz I am weak where you are strong
It's a thrill that makes me curious
Whatever I'm thinking of
You always seem to know
Coz nothing is good enough
There's always something to keep me guessing
What if it's real, what if you're just faking?
What if you knew you could?
What if you get off on manipulating?
Why does it feel so good?
Drivin' the car turn up the sound
Gets yer head in a hailstorm, man I'm gonna feel the blast
I pick you up - you throw me down
And it only gets more serious
What could you be thinking of?
You never let it show
Coz you give me just enough
There's always something
You keep it coming
What if it's real,what if your just faking?
What if you knew you could?
What if you get off on manipulating?
Why does it feel so good?
Why do I want you more? Why do I want you? Why do I feel so torn?
Why do I want you more? Why do I want you?
Why do I want you more?
What could you be thing of?
You never let it show
Coz you give me just enough
There's always something, you keep me coming
Just keep it coming
What if it's real, what if you're just faking?
What if you knew you could?
What if you get off on manipluating?
Why does it feel so good?
Why do I want you more? Why do I want you?
Why do I want you more?
Why do I want you more? Why do I want you? Why do I want you more?
Why do I want you more? Why do I want you? Why do I want you more?
Why do I want you more? Why do I want you? Why do I want you more?

Undergoing Treatment

We are undergoing treatment
Watching others in the news
Studying our worst reviews
They say we'll get over it
Disappear like dinosaurs
To the sound of small applause
Resign to the mid-price section

If you see me walking in the garden
Don't ever ask me for an autograph
If you ever catch me in the arcade
Don't even stop me for a photograph

We are undergoing treatment
'Til our ethic fits the scene
Laid out in Q Magazine
They crave our conformity
Mediocre to the bone
Terrified testosterone
But why do we still face the music?

If you see me walking in the garden
Don't ever ask me...

Now and then you get the strangest notion
That there's something missing
But it keeps you guessing
Wild ambition can you really blame us?
Can you entertain us?
Can you give a little more?

If you see me walking in the garden
Don't ever ask me for an autograph
If you ever catch me in the arcade
Don't even stop me for a photograph

We are undergoing treatment
But will the doctors ever cure
These delusions of grandeur?

U M F

Going to the top here we stand in the shadow of the master plan
Making trouble wherever we can stir it up, stir it up, stir it up
Can't you see this boy is going cheap knocked down to a basement deal
But I really won't stop till I get to the top take it from me
I'm waiting here on my knees and i love the way you tease me ow such a beautiful person
Don't play rough easy when you know your stuff say please and sure enough
So kind I'm making love to the ultimate mind, the ultimate mind, the ultimate mind

Come on take a look put it to me baby you could feel love come tumbling down
I just wanna wrap myself in you baby we can tell the world we're fooling around

Ultimately I sense you toying with me it's a case of wait and see
But right now I'm gonna keep my pants on
A to Zed she's doing it to my head we don't need to go to bed
You'll find to make love to the ultimate mind

Put it to me baby you could feel love gonna wrap myself in you baby we could tell the world
Talk me round let's do it right hear and now I don't want you cooling down
Turn it up, turn it up, turn it up, turn it up
We can fit reality's two way split personality life's a bitch but I'm fine
Making love to the ultimate mind heaven's bent completely innocent
We all gotta pay the rent and in time we'll learn to compromise
Talking tall but I feel invisible can you see me after all that I said there's only one thing for it

Take a look put it me baby you could feel love come tumbling down I just wanna wrap my self in you baby we can tell the world we're fooling around
Come on take a look put it to me baby you could feel love come tumbling down
I just wanna wrap myself in you baby we can tell the world we're fooling around
Come on take a look put it to me baby you could feel love come tumbling down
I just wanna wrap myself in you baby we can tell the world we're fooling around
Come on take a look put it to me baby
I'm making love to the ulitmate mind, ultimate mind, ultimate mind

Too Much Information

Destroyed by MTV I hate to bite the hand that feeds me so much information
The pressure's on the screen to sell you things that you don't need
It's too much information for me
Hey TV child look into my eyes here by intervention I want your attention
Promotion boy in a suit and tie he wants you to use it you're too shot to lose it
It's pumping down the cable like never so before
A cola manufacturer is sponsoring the war here comes the news with with love from me to you

Destroyed by ABC I hate to bite the hand that feeds me so much information
The pressure's on the screen to sell you things that you don't need
It's too much information for me
Turn on the tube hits you with a groove advertising music we want you to choose it
These teeth are white trainers ultra-bright this band is perfect just don't scratch the surface
We've covered all the angles the survey people say
Just put us on the cover we'd be smiling anyway this video was made with love for you

Destroyed by BBC I hate to bite the hand that feeds me so much information
The pressure's on the screen to sell you things that you don't need it's too much information
Destroyed by MTV I hate to bite the hand that feeds me so much information
The pressure's on the screen to sell you things that you don't need
It's too much information for me

Dialate your mind (repeat) Gotta give it to me gotta listen to me gotta give in to me now I'm on the line
Gotta give it to me gotta listen to me gotta give in to me now I'm in your mind
I try (information) yes I try (too much information)
Why should I try (information) cause I try (too much information)
Gotta give it to me gotta listen to me gotta give it too me

Too Late Marlene

Waking out of nowhere
And I let you in
Til my imagination went for a spin
I seen you every night
Been making out since then
And still I wonder why everybody's saying
That ice is thin.

And I think I know you
Just a little bit by nowA
And I think I can show you
You see baby, I don't want to fight about it

Send down your rain
Then who's to blame
And you'll understand
Because its' much too late to change

Awaken to this hunger
And then watch my heat
Grow paler than the moonlight
That you made me eat
And if we run our lives
Along a one way street
We'll always wonder why everytime
It still tastes just as sweet

Send down your rain
Then who's to blame
You'll understand
Because it's much too late to change
I will explain
We're to much the same
No I won't leave
Because it's just too late Marlene

To Whom It May Concern

Telephone call for Mr. Bones
Dear Mr. Bones we've had enough and you can try to pull us down
With your pinstrip weasel stuff but word travels in this town
I wouldn't write home about you we're better off without you without you Mr. Bones

Some people feed on other people's trouble some people beat on other people's meat
Some people want to bleed us dry and some people wanna drown on your feet people

He said boys I'll get you more but you gotta pay me by the hour
Anyway you're just another bore who believes he's a superpower
(I wouldn't write home about you)
And you can talk about loyalty but I hope you realize
(We're better off without you, without you)
Since you ate my royalties without you, without you Mr. Bones
This good-bye and as such here and after shall be referred
Notwithstanding or foregoing statements unpreferred
Don't claim you understand when you've not heard a single word a dickey bird

Some people feed on other people's trouble some people beat on other people's meat
Some people wanna bleed us dry and some people gonna drown on your feet
Some people

To The Shore

Oh when your nine day feed is up and you've drained your loving cup
Come stands reeling to the shore oh when the brave are coming out
The dry fight and the dusty shout see you crawling on the floor
And diamond stars shining glitter bright gorging your sanhedralites
Words are falling to the floor glad stand pouring fruit trees
And now they glisten on the waterline sing home you are at the shore
I'm moving crissie pretty flowers in the shuttermaze
Haul up all your petty desires leave them lying down they fall
Wash away the rusty disease of your brown town days in our silver sea
Leave it dying at the door feather yellow your time to leave
Open out your arms and breathe
Oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh to the shore now
Oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh to the shore now come on

The Valley

These are days of hit and run
In the stream with everyone
Is a moment of our lives

On a wandering river
Going on together
Many journeys to arrive

I've been walking
Through the valley
Through the tall grass
And the shadows
And I feel it
I can see it
Yes I need it
I believe it

Through the city
And the towers
Turning minutes
Into hours
And I feel it
I can see it
Yes I need it
I believe it

When I think I'm being strong
And I lose direction
then a life starts looking mischievous
Finding revelation
Out of desperation
Always stretching time
But it's never long enough

You think you're happy
Think you're free
But maybe we're just
Comfortably dizzy

I've been running
Through the valley
Through the tall grass
And the shadows
And I feel it
I can see it
Yes I need it
I believe it

Through the city
And the towers
Turning minutes
Into hours
And I feel it
I can see it
Yes I need it
I believe it

I've been running
Through the valley
Through the tall grass
Through the shadows
And I feel it
I can see it
Yes I need it
I believe it

Through the city
And the towers
Turning minutes
Into hours
And I feel it
I can see it
Yes I need it
I believe it

The Sun Doesn't Shine Forever

At the end of the rainbow
Found each other there
Strange, we never thought the colours would fade
Be easy to walk
But it's much harder to stay
Why, oh why, are we reckless today?

You and I
Got to hold on together
Because in this life
Maybe the sun doesn't shine forever

Could say that I'm sorry
But there's no one to blame
Anger seems to dissolve into tears
Been so many good times
Not only despair
Somehow we'll find the love we can share

You and I
Got to hold on together
Because in this life
Maybe the sun doesn't shine forever

You and I
Make this life for each other
Because I believe
We've got enough for when the sun doesn't shine
You and I
Got to hold on together
Because in this life
Maybe the sun doesn't shine forever

The Seventh Stranger

Those words are all remainders echos growing in the heart of twilight
They lay back laughing at naievity's star
Awakened all those whispers the dusty shadow of a passing favor
I wouldn't say that you were ruthless or right I couldn't see from so far
Was I chasing after rainbows one thing for sure you never answered when I called
And I wiped away the water from my face to look through the eyes of a stranger
For rumors in the wake of such a lonely crowd
Trading in my shelter for danger I'm changing my name just as the sun goes down
In the eyes of the stranger

Can't tell the real from reflection when all these faces look the same to me
In every city such a desolate dream
Some days are strange to number some say the seventh sounds a little bit stranger
A year of Sunday's seems to have drifted right by
I could've sworn in one evening and I'm not seized in desperation
No steel reproaches on the table from before
But I still can feel those splinters of ice
I look through the eyes of a stranger
For rumors in the wake of such a lonely crowd trading in my shelter for danger
I'm changing my name just as the sun goes down in the eyes of the stranger

I must be chasing after rainbows
One thing for sure you never answer when I call
And I wipe away the water from my face to look through the eyes of a stranger
For rumors in the wake of such a lonely crowd trading in my shelter for danger
I'm changing my name just as the sun goes down
Walking away like a stranger
From rumors in the wake of such a lonely crowd trading in my shelter for danger
I'm changing my name just as the sun goes down in the eyes of the stranger
In the eyes of the stranger
In the eyes of the stranger
