Shelter Filmography

• Release (1998)

Shelter

An unassuming dilapidated log cabin possesses the ability to transform the unconscious of its inhabitants into tangible reality. The cabin hungers for souls to come to it and become part of its "population." To this end, it employs a group of gatherers, forces within the cabin which can appear in human form. Each gatherer-recognizable as a character from universal mythologies-represents a facet of the human psyche.

I find shelter in this way
Under cover, hide away
Can you hear when I say
I have never felt this way
Maybe I had said something that was wrong
Can I make it better with the lights turned on
Maybe I had said something that was wrong
Can I make it better with the lights turned on
Can I be, was I there
It felt so crystal in the air
I still want to drown whenever you leave
Please teach me gently how to breathe
And I'll cross oceans like never before
Birdy Shelter lyrics found on
So you can feel the way I feel it too
And I'll send images back at you
So you can see the way I feel it too
Maybe I had said something that was wrong
Can I make it better with the lights turned on
Maybe I had said something that was wrong

Years spent out in the rain
Thrown in the mud
Come dry us again
We've got nothing to show
Nowhere to go
Give shelter again
Oh, throats are dry
Let us sing, oh
Bones are cold
Bring us heat, oh
Mountains high
Let us dream, oh

You never change
You stay the same
You are my hope of glory
I will never have to be afraid
Through the course of time and all my life
You've been my place of shelter
Here beneath You love I will remain
I will sing that
CHORUS:
You are my refuge
In You alone I place my trust
Here in the shadow of Your wing
You are my refuge
The maker of the stars above
Still You make Your home inside of me
You shelter me
You are Lord of all
My mind recalls
The times that You've been faithful
Now I know Your love is here to stay
Through the course of time and all my life
You've been my place of shelter
Here beneath Your love I will remain
I will sing that

Rain come down, come falling down
Purified with no shelter
All at once you leave all at once
Testify that what you want is mine
And the dreams are waking me
All the dreams I'm wanting you
She'll close her eyes
And dream of shelter
She wonders why
She dreams of shelter
And all she wants is your shelter
She wants your shelter
Rings and chains then no rings and chains
In the box put your memories
Holy day, give your love away
Then you'll say that what you need is time
And the girl is shaking
All her dreams you're breaking in two
She'll close her eyes
And dream of shelter
She wonders why
She dreams of shelter
And all she wants is your shelter
She wants your shelter
And the girl is shaking

You never change
You stay the same
You are my hope of glory
I will never have to be afraid
Through the course of time and all my life
You've been my place of shelter
Here beneath Your love I will remain
I will sing that
You are my refuge
In You alone I place my trust
Here in the shadow of Your wing
You are my refuge
The maker of the stars above
Still You make Your home inside of me
You shelter me
You are Lord of all
My mind recalls the times that You've been faithful
Now I know Your love is here to stay
Through the course of time and all my life
You've been my place of shelter
Here beneath Your love I will remain

I remember at school there was always some fool
teaching us about the past
Pictures of kids, starving, eating out of bins
Man we all had to laugh
It¡¯s hard to believe we were told with relief
It couldn¡¯t happen now of course
It¡¯s easy to expound with your head in the ground
I¡¯ve since learnt that and more
What is there to do I¡¯m allright so are you
but outside there are TB streets
You can cry a lot say ¡®Oh! my God!¡¯
but as an action it is incomplete
put money in the hands of those who understand
Give shelter of the roofless heads
It¡¯s hard to deny when you open your eyes
and listen to yourself insteadAnd you¡¯ll think you¡¯ve gone crazy
but you hope it will pass
It¡¯s a sickening feeling maybe it won¡¯t last
It shouldn¡¯t be happening at this point in time
With these houses standing empty

If I lose all respect for you
Can I still call you friend?
Why expose myself to disappointment
Over and over again?
The cycle has to end
(chorus)
Can someone give me shelter
From the pouring rain?
If the water washed your lies away,
Maybe I could trust you again
If anything remained
I'm tired of masking anger,
With humor and diplomacy,
I want to scream out all the fucked up things
We both know about you
Embrace the honesty
(chorus)
I'm sick of the pain,
Give me one good reason,
To believe that you'll change
I wonder how we got this far,
After all these years,
I still don't know who you are.
Like a dream I've fallen down,
I need to wake up,
before I hit the ground
If the water washed you away,
Could I be myself again?
If the water washed you away,
Could I be myself again?
If the water washed you away,
Could I be myself again?

We gon do it like this, do it like this, word
Check it out yo, yo, yo
Chorus: (2x)
Through difficult times it's hard to maintain
Lookin for the shelter that blocks out the rain
Stress and pain could leave a mark on the brain
But one thing's for sure black God remains
[beretta 9]
Through difficult times lots of unexpected
My pops disapproves cause I wanna make records
But check it, my home life for second, I feel neglected
I bounce the first chance I get, I stop to think a second
I wreck it, damn I'm gonna need a place to sleep
No major cream
I call up the God supreme
I analyse, I'm plannin up a strategy
Fuck a fantasy I'm dealin with reality
Mentality that's wilder than the average cat
I snatch a cream and sell a nigga's candlewax
I hit the tracks, I hold cycle with my brothers
All is understood, peace lies amongst each other
But meanwhile, I maintain to keep the same
I smoke a bone every now and then to ease the pain
But through the struggle I know that only God remains
Chorus (2x)
[shogun assasson]
The streets is bugged
Seein young soldiers pedal drugs by the pound
The scheme is to catch cream at a fast rate
Start movin the product from state to state
Lay up and watch the profits inflate
Now you're a big time hustler, full time heavyweight contender
But you must remember
That your thoughts must be cold just like december
Stay low key so you won't catch a case
Throws comin in from the fiends who smoke base
Madman clientele, see your apartment start to swell
The last thing on your mind is a jail cell
You're blind, all you see is money
Lost in the illusion of luxury
It's a shame, you're in the game for the fame and the name
So spin the wheel of misfortune
I heard with the sling that escorts ya
Now your life is in jeopardy
Because you the brothers that's livin in the army
Chorus (2x)
Keep calm and don't expose and weak points
We'll all line up and fight together
I say, we must all stay together as a single unit

I was born in the city, there's no flies on me.
Life can't deliver no surprise to me.
Got a head full of trouble, the world's weight on my
back
I'm a fighter, I survive like that.
I'm a modern enigma I am living proof,
Cold eyes speaking volumes ff my troubled youth.
I believe in the future,from mistakes I have grown,
Leaving the shadows which were once my home.
Need your hand to help me over,
Need your shoulder,
Need your light to bring me closer,
To your shelter.
Been so long in the bitter city air I breath,
Seen a million believers cry in disbelief.
I won't give in to the pressure, keep my spirit intact
'Cause I know when I need you,you will watch my back
CHORUS:
Need your hand to help me over
Need your shoulder
Need light to bring me closer
To your shelter
Need your hand to help me over
Need your shoulder
Need your light to bring me closer
To your shelter
They can't take you away from me
When they try it only makes me stronger
Through the dark it's your light I see
Helping to show me the way
Knowing I'll be safe in your shelter
Knowing I'll be safe in your shelter
Knowing I'll be safe in your shelter
Knowing I'll be safe in your shelter

I need your shelter. I've had enough. Oh, I need your help. Just through my eyes I see, thinking that this world revolves around me. And with myself as the center, I'll never see, what is illusion and reality. NAMA OM VISNU-PADAYA KRSNA-PRESTHAYA BHU-TALE SRIMATE BHAKTIVEDANTA SVAMIN ITI NAMINE. I'm all tied up and my eyes are shut. And these chains I've made they're too tough to cut. By me, by me, I need someone who's free. Inattentive, insensitive, for what others have found. Letting false ego drag me around. I'm confessing, I'm missing all I can learn. I'm not humbling, I'm crumblig and now I'm concerned. I'll never fulfill these desires, I need something hire. Please save me from this fire

See I could spend forever here and never wanna stop
'Cause baby you are making my day
Dont tell me what it takes my dear to keep you in one spot
I'm crazy good at finding a way
For all of my days I'll be brave I'll be stronger
And always keep a hand on my pride
If I build it with care it will last that much longer
I'll always give you somewhere to hide
I'll give you shelter
Out of the rain
I'll make a good day
Out of the pain
And if you got a long way down
I'll feel the same
I'll give you shelter
Out of the rain
So let me kiss you head to toe
Upon this tabletop
'Cause baby you can have it your way
I'll keep you safe and warm you know im never gunna stop
'Cause babe I think we'll make it someday
For all of my days
I'll be happy to hold you
And always go that extra mile
If I build it with care
I'll be there like I told you
I'll always give you reason to smile
I'll give you shelter
Out of the rain
I'll make a good day
Out of the pain
If you got a long way down
I'll feel the same
I'll give you shelter
Out of the rain
When I get you alone
Darling you satisfy me
I'm always at home
When it's you standing by me
Don't give this away
Baby please stay
I'll give you shelter
Out of the rain
I'll make a good day
Out of the pain
And if you got a long way down
I'll feel the same
I'll give you shelter
Out of the rain
And if you've got a long way down
I feel the same
I'll give you shelter
Out of the rain
I'll give you shelter
Out of the rain
I'll give you shelter

Consumed by this greedy disposition
I give no thanks for all that's been given to me
See I'm so concerned with selfish ambition
I see what I want and look past what I need
It's time
To forget myself
It's time
To forget myself
Tell me where to find shelter
Somewhere here
Tell me where to find shelter
Somewhere here
Impatience takes its toll
It's such a hefty fair for me to pay
Indifference takes control
I guess I'll keep that outside at bay
'Cause I don't care
If I ever change
No I don't care
If I ever change
Tell me where to find shelter
Somewhere here
Tell me where to find shelter
Somewhere here
Somewhere here
Tell me where to find shelter
Somewhere here
Tell me where to find shelter
Somewhere here
Tell me where to find shelter
Somewhere here
Tell me where to find shelter
Somewhere here
'Cause I don't care
If I ever change
No I don't care

Consumed by this co-disposition

Now I'm drowning in the sunshine as it falls down from the sky
There's something stirring in my heart, bright colours fill my eyes
It's from here to the far horizon your beauty does unfold
And oh, you look so lovely, dressed in green and gold
I can almost touch the ocean, shimmering in the distant haze
As I stand here on this mountain on this loveliest of days
Around half the world I've drifted, left no wild oats unsown
But now my view has shifted and I think I've just come home
To the homeless and the hungry, may we always open doors
May the restless and the weary find safe harbour on our shores
May you always be our dreamtime place, a spirit's glad release
May you always be our shelter, may we always live in peace
Now I'm drowning in the sunshine as it falls down from the sky
There's something stirring in my heart, bright colours fill my eyes
It's from here to the far horizon your beauty does unfold
And oh, you look so lovely, dressed in green and gold

Cold obscurity falls on me
Into my soul the winter to return
Whips of the storm shivered i hear
I waited for you, but you didn't come
Monotomy of misterious stars
Hit a nail to the coffin of dusk
My soul has crashed down under the beats
Just the loneliness gives shelter to me
A not happened embrace, a not happened kiss
One face what charms me in the dark
My knees hit the floor, it was a moment only
I'm sleeping, i will wake up somewhere else
I can't smell the scent anymore
That her skin breathed above silk pillows
[Chorus:]
I hate, when i feel
That the world
Turns its back on me...
And just the loneliness
Gives shelter to me!
I feel that the wild burning desire
Is calmed by the steps of happines
The bright, shinning, rising sun is nice to me
When the first ray comes and rests by my side
Bride of darkness stood before me
Between walls and doubts
[Chorus:]
I hate, when i feel
That the world
Turns its back on me...
And just the loneliness

Look in me. Can you see that some things should never be?
There's no shelter, so this is really me.
When you look in my eyes you see something that's just not right.
There's no shelter, so this is really me.
When I fall once again. I will fall like there is no end.
There's no shelter, so this is really me,
Crush the walls, built together.
Piece by piece, like no other.
Now you see what it's done to me.
There's no shelter, so this is really me.
Crush the walls, built together.
Piece by piece, like no other.

Shelter, oh
I've been branded
I've been washed up and left for dead
I've been cast out from this world
I'm in exile
I'm stranded on the streets
Ain't got no place left to run
No one wants me anymore, anymore, anymore
Now they hunt me down
C'mon and take me to the shelter
SHELTER give me what I want tonight shelter
SHELTER take me undercover tonight
SHELTER
I've been tortured
I've been raging in the breach
In this wicked worldPersecution
I've been carrying my cross
I've been down there on my knees
No one wants me anymore, anymore, anymore
Now they hunt me down
Come on and take me to the shelter
SHELTER give me what I want tonight shelter
SHELTER running undercover tonight shelter
SHELTER
Come on and take me to the shelter
SHELTER give me what I want tonight
(Give me your love) Shelter
SHELTER Sleeping on the streets tonight
(Give me your love) Shelter
SHELTER give me what I want tonight
(Give me your love) Shelter
SHELTER give me what I want tonight

I find shelter, in this way
Under cover, hide away
Can you hear, when I say?
I have never felt this way
Maybe I had said, something that was wrong
Can I make it better, with the lights turned on
Maybe I had said, something that was wrong
Can I make it better, with the lights turned on
Could I be, was I there?
It felt so crystal in the air
I still want to drown, whenever you leave
Please teach me gently, how to breathe
And I'll cross oceans, like never before
So you can feel the way I feel it too
And I'll mirror images back at you
So you can see the way I feel it too
Maybe I had said, something that was wrong
Can I make it better, with the lights turned on
Maybe I had said, something that was wrong
Can I make it better, with the lights turned on
Maybe I had said, something that was wrong
Can I make it better, with the lights turned on

Petal and Tarts
PETAL
See me on the street, just a vagabond
I'm a beggar, I'm a thief
But I'm some mother's son
You don't see the hunger
Or the good in me
Just a hand reaching to ya
Wanting something for free
Call me a taker, I've got nothing to give
Call me a loser, I'm just trying to live
With a bit more love, love, love
I could be someone
I could be someone
PETAL
Isn't that a shame. Boo. Now then... Count me in...
Call me a taker, I've got nothing to give Call me a loser,
I'm just trying to live
With a bit more love, love, love
I could be someone
I could be someone
PETAL
Did ya like that one? Did ya?
Mash it up, mash it up. Rewind!

Please savior of here
Give me shelter from fear
I need answers to this
Crazy world that's so mixed
With this pain that leaves us
Lifeless and so dead-souled
We all need to break this mold
I'm so sure, you'll blame me for this all
What's so wrong, you claim to call this love
I'm so sure, you'll blame me for this all
What's so wrong, you claim to call this love
Drips hit the floor, who cares at all
Flesh sheared and torn, sleaves hide remorse
Stardom branded skin, traps pain within
Expectations, never reaching
I'm so sure, you'll blame me for this all
What's so wrong, you claim to call this love
I'm so sure, you'll blame me for this all
What's so wrong, you claim to call this love
I'm so sure, you'll blame me for this all
What's so wrong, you claim to call this love
I'm so sure, you'll blame me for this all
What's so wrong, you claim to call this love

You muthafucker better come up
We're comin' back yo
Straight to ya face
We're comin' back yo
Straight to ya face
You gotta come up (3x)
Shed your skin like a snake
You're nuthin but a wannabe boy you're a fake
You're asking for a one now you're asking for a three
You better drop that coz that style's not for me
When I'm not visible you stab my back
Now you got news with a boom with a shack
You look like Peewee Herman burnout on crack
You said you're pretty cool but I think you suck
Chorus:
Tell me now all your reasons before you fade away
Try to play with the system I'm sure you never care
You can never see so come play with me
Boy you gonna burn
Boy you gonna burn
Boy you gonna burn
Boy you gonna burn (2x)
Go away, go away
I make you blue
Every time I come through like a glue I stick to you
I don't even care about your crew
I'm always high like Bob Marley
I hate all those who hate me
I'll leave all your fuckin ashes in the cemetery
One day I will fly like a butterfly
I will glide I will fly right in your sky
I feel everything is clear
Time to take away your fear
Repeat Chorus:
Watch your back when I come so slow hey yo
You know I hate to see you go
I'm tired of this I'm tired of that
Just hold on to your seat I'm gonna show you what I got
Where you at where you gonna be
I wanna see you movin' as you dance with your enemy
You and me are about to see disaster is coming like John F. Kennedy
You can never see so come play with me
Boy you gonna burn
Boy you gonna burn
Boy you gonna burn
Boy you gonna burn (2x)
Go away go away please go away go away

[Verse 1]
There is shelter underneath your wing
A fortress won't be shaken.
There is refuge in the tower
That is higher than I.
A fortress won't be shaken.
There is refuge in the tower
That is higher than I.
[Pre-Chorus]
And I tried to do justice
And to love mercy.
I want to walk humbly with my God
[Chorus]
Hope will keep you warm a little longer
and Faith won't leave you gone,
It makes you stronger.
Love will find you
Love will find you
Yeah
[Verse 2]
The broken run and seem so alone.
There's a hand to hold that never lets go.
but Hope replaces tears
and our hearts will see God
Glorify
[Pre-Chorus]
And I tried to do justice
And to love mercy.
I want to walk humbly with my God
[Chorus]
Hope will keep you warm a little longer
and Faith won't leave you gone,
It makes you stronger.
Love will find you
Love will find you
[Bridge]
To love Him
To know Him
is to go where He sends us, to go.
To love Him
To know Him
is to go!
[Pre-Chorus]
And I tried to justice
And to love mercy
I want to walk humbly with my God.
[Chorus]
Hope will keep you warm a little longer
and Faith won't leave you gone,
It makes you stronger.
Love will find you
Love will find you
Hope will keep you warm a little longer
and Faith won't leave you gone,
It makes you stronger.
Love will find you
Love will find you
Yeah
To find you!
Wherever you are!
Wherever you've been!
Wherever you're going!

Here I am this is my shelter
Here I'm at one with these trees
And all these birds sing to my rhythms
And these waves they comfort me
Do what you will, while your able
Find what it is that you seek
Only I'll fly, fly, fly above the ocean
I will fly so high above the sea
If it's shelter you're searching for
One that I cannot provide
Well, I wish you well on your journey
I hope your dreams they come alive
I hope your dreams back down and they, they thrive
Do, do, do
[Incomprehensible]
Do, do, do
[Incomprehensible]
Do, do, do
[Incomprehensible]
Well, I filled my cup with the answers
And I filled my cup with your lies
You topped it up with your mysteries
And all those secrets I denied
Do what you will, while you're able
Find what it is that you seek
Only I'll fly, fly, fly above the ocean
I will fly so high above the sea
If it's shelter you're searching for
The one that I cannot provide
Well, I wish you well on your journey
I hope your dreams they come alive
I hope your dreams back down and they
Well they thrive
I hope your dreams they come alive
Well, I hope your dreams back down and thrive
Yeah now
Do, do, do
[Incomprehensible]
Do, do, do
[Incomprehensible]
Do, do, do

I find shelter, in this way
Under cover, hide away
Can you hear, when I say?
I have never felt this way
Maybe I had said, something that was wrong
Can I make it better, with the lights turned on
Maybe I had said, something that was wrong
Can I make it better, with the lights turned on
Could I be, was I there?
It felt so crystal in the air
I still want to drown, whenever you leave
Please teach me gently, how to breathe
And I'll cross oceans, like never before

And I'll mirror images back at you
So you can see the way I feel it too
Maybe I had said, something that was wrong
Can I make it better, with the lights turned on
Maybe I had said, something that was wrong
Can I make it better, with the lights turned on
Maybe I had said, something that was wrong

Haven't seen you lately,
How you been?
Are you comfortable
Or scared inside there?
Now I heard
You toughened up your skin,
Well that's wonderful,
'Cause life's not real fair,
You can never hide from the
Truth inside,
You can't run into
Your shallow reason,
When you search your soul,
Fill the empty holes,
Hope you find it
When the truth's in season,
I hope you know
Your sin's allowed,
Hear me through the
Silent sound
Soul to soul,
You're gonna have to
Shelter me,
Everybody take a fall,
You're gonna have to
Shelter me from the candle to the
Lonely years,
You externalize to calm
Your senses,
All your drive is covered
By your fear,
Not sensible,
But so defenseless,
You can say it's me,
I can point at you,
I can stand and claim
I'm Old Prince Charming,
I don't mean to preach,
Different tongue I speak,
But the attitude is so
Arming.
I hope you know I understand,
I'm guilty of my
Heart's demands
I'm driving in the coming rain,
I'm needing what you

Just come softly to me in the shelter of my heart
I watch you from the window working this vicious road
You shudder when the wind blows girl you're looking beat and cold
Don't know you situation but you look so alone to me
In my imagination this is what the message reads
Reaching out calling out for your love babe just come softly to me
Reaching out calling out for your love for your love babe in the shelter of my heart
Trust my intuition you're the one I've got to know
I give without condition wouldn't try to save your soul
Money or reputation doesn't mean a thing to me
Special communication it's the only thing we need
Reaching out, calling out just come softly to me
Calling out, hear me now in the shelter of my heart
Reaching out calling out for your love babe (in the shelter of my heart)
(Reaching out, here me now calling out do you read me)
Reaching out calling out for your love for you love babe just come softly to me
(Reaching out, here me now)
Here there is no hurt to feel here is safe for lips unsealed in the shelter of my heart
Reaching out calling out for your love babe just come softly to me
Reaching out calling out for your love for your love babe in the shelter of my heart

Tears coming down
I'll dry them now
Yeah
There'll be no crying tonight
Cause I'm coming in
I'm gonna make you feel better
Girl you need a little shelter yeah
Hello how long you gonna be outside in the cold
I know you feel safer alone
And I know that you're thinkin'
You're never gon' love again, no
Chorus:
Girl you, you, you don't have to worry about me
As long as me and you in love you can let it fall Put it on me
And I can be your shelter (girl I feel your pain)
Let me be your shelter (come in out of the rain)
Let me be your shelter (come and hear what I'm sayin)
Let me be your shelter, your shelter
I don't understand why you're playin
If your world's comin down then I wanna cover you
Girl dry your eyes and come inside you're safe now
Aw yeah yeah
If he did you wrong you can blame it on me
Assume all the damages now it's all on me
And be for certain that I'll never hurt you
I'll protect you
Tears coming down, I'll dry them now
I won't let you go and I'll never let you down
Girl I swear!

Tears coming down

Tears coming down

We're building a shelter
on the edge of mount Verona
It's a corrugated palace
with a tree lined avenue
If you're frightened of the future
and you're watching o'er your shoulder
If you're getting kind of anxious and nervous
Come and stay here till it's through
This a'int no ark of Noah
no mockery of history
a taxi ride to nowhere
just a drifting boat at sea
Repeat
My sister is working
for every day pleasure
the car in the driveway gleaming
the kids watching MTV
She was born to the Parish
says there's no way of leaving
says her rainbow is slowly fading ... fading
This aint no ark of Noah
no mockery of history
a taxi ride to nowhere
Just a drifting boat at sea
This aint no ark of Noah
no mockery of history
a taxi ride to nowhere

Once in a while
You been better listenin' to the fools for a change
I can see it in your eyes
It's the ones not like you
You despise
I'm no different than you, it's just that I do whatever I want to
That's what sets us apart I was free from the start, now your leavin'
Tell me whose heart is bleeding?
So, once in a while
You been better listenin' to the fools for a change
One comes around follows and the truth becomes harder to swallow
So, bang, bang they shoot you down
No one says a word as your body hits the ground
Oh pick her up and put her down
The crowd screams aloud "She's not breathing"
And the only hands that reaches, is the one alone
You've been cheatin' my friend
Tell me whose heart is bleeding again?
So, once in a while
You been better listening to the fools for a change
Oh once in a while

If I had a child, I would shelter it from harm
If I had a child, I would hold it in my arms
If I had a child, I would love it as my own
If I had a home
If I had a mom, I would shelter her from harm
If I had my mother, she would never lose her grace
If I had a mother, she would shelter me from harm
Oh, if I had a mom
If I had a love, I would shelter it from a broken heart
If I had a heart, I'd surrender it to my love
If I had my father, he would smile
If I had my dad, he'd be so kind
If I had a dad, he would tell me I was good

They're crowded into the smallest spaces
While outside, all of nature cries
It's known to be cruel and unfair
But there is no place to hide
Oh, I've seen a part of people that I never really wanted to share
Oh, I've seen a part of people that I never knew was there
Shelter, give them shelter from the coming storm
Shelter, give them shelter from the coming storm
I can't sleep - haunted by their faces
The sadness in their eyes
It hurts so much to see them helpless
It makes me want to cry
But still there is so much left unanswered
For so many innocent lives
They closed the door and are letting nobody in
And only the strong will survive
Shelter, give them shelter from the coming storm
Give them shelter, give them shelter from the coming storm
I've seen the anger and I've seen all the dreams
And I've watched their existence torn apart at the seams
And though I may seem helpless
I will do all that I can do
I've seen a part of people that I never really wanted to share
Oh, I've seen a part of people that I never knew was there
Shelter, give them shelter from the coming storm
Give them shelter, give them shelter from the coming storm
Shelter, give them shelter from the coming storm

Petal and Tarts
PETAL
See me on the street, just a vagabond
I'm a beggar, I'm a thief
But I'm some mother's son
You don't see the hunger
Or the good in me
Just a hand reaching to ya
Wanting something for free
Call me a taker, I've got nothing to give
Call me a loser, I'm just trying to live
With a bit more love, love, love
I could be someone
I could be someone
PETAL
Isn't that a shame. Boo. Now then... Count me in...
Call me a taker, I've got nothing to give Call me a loser,
I'm just trying to live
With a bit more love, love, love
I could be someone
I could be someone
PETAL
Did ya like that one? Did ya?

I guess you don't need it
I guess you don't want me to repeat it
But everything I have to give I'll give to you
It's not like we planned it
You tried to stay, but you could not stand it
To see me shut down slow
as though it was an easy thing to do
Listen when
All of this around us'll fall over
I tell you what we're gonna do
You will shelter me my love
And I will shelter you
I will shelter you
I left you heartbroken, but not until those very words were spoken
Has anybody ever made such a fool out of you
It's hard to believe it
Even as my eyes do see it
The very things that make you live are killing you
Listen when all of this around us'll fall over
I tell you what we're gonna do
You will shelter me my love
I will shelter you
Listen when
All of this around us'll fall over
I tell you what we're gonna do
Hey you will shelter me my love
I will shelter you
If you shelter me too
I will shelter you

You've been trying to believe in what you do
Always looking for a reason to go through
This incompatibility has
Got you focused on another dream, and yeah
Giving meaning to the purpose just don't kick
All this running round in circles makes you sick
There's allot of technicalities and
There's allot of things you just don't see, and yeah
Cause I want to know -
Will you ever find the way:?
Follow your heart, follow your senses
Walking a one way road - longing shelter
It might be hard, it might be easy
Walking a one way road - longing shelter from the storm
Times are changing but song remains the same
Kind of dated, kind of retro, kind of lame
Do you really even understand why
Nothing's going quite the way you planned, and yeah
Are you ready to indulge into the truth -
Of the consequences captured by your youth?
Take a good look at the way you're going
Are you moving without even knowing? Yeah!
Cause I want to know -
Will you ever find the way:?
Follow your heart, follow your senses
Walking a one way road - longing shelter
It might be hard, it might be easy
Walking a one way road - longing shelter from the storm
A one way road - longing shelter from the storm
A one way road - longing shelter from the storm
From the storm:.
Cause I want to know -
Will you ever find the way:?
Follow your heart, follow your senses
Walking a one way road - longing shelter
It might be hard, it might be easy
Walking a one way road - longing shelter from the storm
A one way road - longing shelter from the storm
A one way road - longing shelter from the storm

Well alright, you gave it all up for a dream
Fate proved unkind, to lock the door and leave no key
You're unsure, well baby I'm scared too
When the world crushes you
Let me be your shelter, shelter
From a storm outside
Let me be your shelter, shelter
From the endless night
Disillusion has an edge so sharp
It tears at your soul and leaves a stain upon your heart
I need you, to wash mine clean
You've felt it too, and you need me
Let me be your shelter, shelter
From a storm outside
Let me be your shelter, shelter
From the endless night
You're struggle with darkness has left you blind
I'll light the fire in your eyes
You're struggle with darkness has left you blind
I'll light the fire in your eyes
Let me be your shelter, shelter
From a storm outside
Let me be your shelter, shelter
From the endless night
Let me be your shelter, shelter
Let me be your shelter, shelter
Let me be your shelter, shelter
Let me be your shelter, shelter
Let me be your shelter, shelter
Let me be your shelter, shelter
Let me be your shelter, shelter
Shelter, shelter, shelter, shelter
Shelter, shelter, shelter, shelter

How the mind can wander
How the heart can stray
Suddenly You're on the edge of darkness
How it makes me ponder
How I'm led away
Down a path that leaves me worn and tarnished
Battling with the will within
I have known all along that I should lean on You
'Cause I'm never strong enough
To fight it on my own
Shelter me, the ways of the world are at my feet
Shelter me from the desires that deceive
You are the fortress I need
Shelter me
Well, how the mind can alter
How the heart can change
When You set Your sights on holiness
And though at times You falter
It's the only way
You can find a place of peace to rest
Safe from danger surrounding me
Safe from looming defeat
When temptation is at my door
Lord, I need a harbor be my soul's retreat
Shelter me, the ways of the world are at my feet
Shelter me from the desires that deceive
You are the fortress I need
Shelter me, yeah
You will never leave me stranded, fending for myself
When the enemy advances, You are there to help
Standing in the gap for me, whenever I grow weak
You are my deliverer, the refuge that I seek
I should lean on You
'Cause I'm never strong enough to fight it on my own
Shelter me, the ways of the world are at my feet
Shelter me from the desires that deceive
You are the fortress I need
Shelter me
Shelter me
Shelter me

To all who are looking down
Holding on to hearts still wounding
For those who've yet to find it
The place is near where love is moving
Cast off the robes you're wearing
Set aside the names that you've been given
May this place of rest in the fold of your journey
Bind you to hope
You will never walk alone
In the shelter of each other
We will live
We will live (Never walk alone)
In the shelter of each other
We will live
We will live (Your arms are all around us)
If our hearts are turned to stone
There is hope we know the rocks will cry out
And the tears aren't ours alone
Let them fall into the hands that hold us
Come away from where you're hiding
Set aside the lies that you've been living
May this place of rest in the fold of your journey
Bind you to hope
We will never walk alone
In the shelter of each other
We will live
We will live (In the shelter)
In the shelter of each other
We will live
We will live (You will never walk alone)
In the shelter of each other
We will live
We will live (In Your arms are all around us)
In the shelter of each other
We will live
We will live (In Your arms are all around us)
If there is any peace
If there is any war
We must all believe
Our lives are not our own
We all belong
God has given us each other
And we will never walk alone
In the shelter of each other
We will live
We will live (We will never walk alone)
In the shelter of each other
We will live
We will live (In the shelter)
In the shelter of each other
We will live
We will live (Your arms are all around us)
In the shelter of each other
We will live
We will live (In Your arms are all around us)
In the shelter of each other
We will live
We will live (In Your arms are all around us)
In the shelter of each other
We will live
We will live (In Your arms are all around us)
In the shelter of each other
We will live
We will live

Said it's wrong but you know that
The look on his face means he'll be back again.
(so see you later.)
Saturday on the night train,
With uptown boys who rail cocaine downtown.
Keep her waiting.
But it's a long time and you're not home.
Don't you feel like you're alone?
But it's a long time and you're alone.
Don't you know you can come home?
You don't feel, but you look fine.
No dial tone on the main line. (say)
Laughing out to no one's joke.
Looking 'round but it's remote,
You won't see no one you know.
But it's a long time and you're not home.
Don't you feel like you're alone?
But it's a long time and you're alone.
Don't you know you can come home?
Running, wait, don't you look 'round.
Running, running, running east bound, downtown.
Got nothing for you.
Shelter is waiting for ya!
I'm still waiting for ya to come home.
But it's a long time and you're not home.
Don't you feel like you're alone?
But it's a long time and you're alone.
Don't you know that you can come home.

misery's pouring down
impossible to ignore
everywhere he goes
his head gets filled with more
never mind direction
the clouds will always haunt
like a knive above his head
killing without a sound
always on the run
knowing he can't hide
unable to reach his shelter
'cause his shelter lies inside
doomed to walk the earth
with this burden on his mind
trying to erase the scars

Shelter, oh
I've been branded
I've been washed up and left for dead
I've been cast out from this world
I'm in exile
I'm stranded on the streets
Ain't got no place left to run
No one wants me anymore, anymore, anymore
Now they hunt me down
C'mon and take me to the shelter
SHELTER give me what I want tonight shelter
SHELTER take me undercover tonight
SHELTER
I've been tortured
I've been raging in the breach
In this wicked world
Persecution
I've been carrying my cross
I've been down there on my knees
No one wants me anymore, anymore, anymore
Now they hunt me down
Come on and take me to the shelter
SHELTER give me what I want tonight shelter
SHELTER running undercover tonight shelter
SHELTER
Come on and take me to the shelter
SHELTER give me what I want tonight
(Give me your love) Shelter
SHELTER Sleeping on the streets tonight
(Give me your love) Shelter
SHELTER give me what I want tonight
(Give me your love) Shelter

I've been sleeping in these hotel beds,
And I can't find no, no damn rest,
And I just need a place to rest my head,
And I always find second best, oh,
She will be my shelter,
I knew it once I felt her,
She will be my shelter,
I knew it once I felt her,
And I ain't got any more energy,
And I can't find no, no damn release,
And I turned triumph into tragedy,
And I can't find no, no damn release, oh,
She will be my shelter,
I knew it once I felt her,
She will be my shelter,
I knew it once I felt her, yeah, ooh,
Yeah, that she's gonna be my shelter, yeah, ooh,
I just knew it once I felt her, yeah, ooh,
Yeah, that she's gonna be my shelter, yeah, ooh,
She will be my shelter,
I knew it once I felt her,
She will be my shelter,
I knew it once I felt her, yeah, ooh,
Yeah, that she's gonna be my shelter, yeah, ooh,
I just knew it once I felt her, yeah, ooh,

Day after day, night after night,
Under a bloody sky
Bullets fall like rain
I'm caught in the cross-fire
Of mad men, fear and lies
This is no honeymoon picture postcard,
I'm sending from the battlelines
Lines are drawn
on each side of the streets
The neighbours are strangers here
They never speak
And the smoke in the sky above
is blotting out the sun
There are hard times up ahead
for our daughters and our sons
And all the kings and their desires
Making life's blood fan the fire
When all we want is shelter from the storm (shelter
from the storm)
Sweet kisses in our lover's arms
We all waiting for the storm to break
And let the sunlight shine within
And pray to God we see a new horizon
In no-mans land,
Where no-one gives a damn
And the lives are blowing away
On the winds of deserts sands
And inside my heart I know
stirs a quiet pain
'cos there's nothing left to lose
and there's nothing left to gain
And all the kings and their desires
Making life's blood fan the fire
When all we want is shelter from the storm (shelter
from the storm)
Sweet kisses in our lover's arms
We all waiting for the storm to break
And let the sunlight shine within
And pray to God we see a new horizon
When all we want is shelter from the storm (shelter
from the storm)
Sweet kisses in our lover's arms
We all waiting for the storm to break
And let the sunlight shine within
And pray to God we see a new horizon
And let the sunlight shine within

[Amardon:]
Running away, hours or days
Finally I'm free the gates before me I see
Holding the stones must find a place to hide
Must keep them away, from the demonic shrine
My army is fighting for me
For the stones, or we'll never be free
Keepers of light.
Shall behold their might.
To arms of gods I will give my life.
Escaped from the dark.
Their light in my heart.
Divine was their meaning to keep me alive.
Now take these stones, hide them like gold
To place filled with love, This is what spirits told
We must fight for the stones, to last standing man
We won't see tomorrow, they'll destroy this land
My army is fighting for me
For the stones, or we'll never be free
Keepers of light
Shall behold their might
To arms of gods I will give my life
Escaped from the dark
Their light in my heart

if this was a cavern of concrete
in a forest with trees like towers
I would have a place to seek retreat
from their poisoned plastic flowers
if this was a shelter I would endure
in a world with faceless strangers
I would have a place to feel secure
