[Instrumental]
Every day of every year you live your life in hope and fear,
That each small sin and imperfection is buried deep beyond detection.
But one by one the ghosts return, and each selects it's place to burn,
Into your soft and breaking heart, and this is how the aching starts.
The jokes about the ugly kid.
The things you said but never did.
The people torn and crushed and battered.
The ones you broke but should've flattered.
Oh, you should have run whilst you had time.
Oh, you should have left the past behind.
The boy from the chemist is here to see you.
The laughing stops cause he's too near you.
The girl you left that always loved you.
Returns to earth from miles above you now.
So wash away the dirty skin, there's always worse remains within.
The tangled web and bitter mesh, but each shall have their pound of flesh.
No sympathy, no charity, no false pleas of humility.
No money back, no guarantee, no great escape for you and me.
Oh, you should have run whilst you had time.
Oh, you should have left the past behind.
The boy from the chemist is here to see you.
The laughing stops cause he's too near you.
The girl you left that always loved you.
Returns to earth from miles above you now.
And everyone that's ever suffered, friend or foe or wives or lovers.
They'll come back to have their day.
In time you find your mind has no escape.
Don't believe that you can hide, don't believe they'll be denied.
They'll come knocking at your door, this is what they've waited for.
The chance to even up the score.
The boy from the chemist is here to see you.
The laughing stops cause he's too near you.
The girl you left that always loved you.
Returns to earth from miles above you now.
And everyone that's ever suffered, friend or foe or wives or lovers.
They'll come back to have their day.
In time you find your mind has no escape.

If Joan of Arc had a heart,
Would she give it as a gift
To such as me who longs to see,
How a legend oughta be
Had dreams to give her heart away,
Like an orphan along the way
She cared so much,
Enola Gay
You should have stayed at home yesterday
Ah-ha words can't describe
The feeling and the way you lied
These games you play
They're going to end in more than tears some day
Ah-ha Enola Gay
It shouldn't ever have to end this way
It's eight fifteen
And that's the time that it's always been
We got your message on the radio
Conditions normal and you're coming home
Enola Gay
Is mother proud of little boy today
Ah-ha this kiss you give
It's never ever going to fade away
Enola Gay
It shouldn't ever have to end this way
Ah-ha Enola Gay
It shouldn't fade in our dreams away
It's eight fifteen
And that's the time that it's always been
We got your message on the radio
Conditions normal and you're coming home
Enola Gay
Is mother proud of little boy today
Ah-ha this kiss you give

Rain, rain, go away
I couldn't take you one more day
There's broken glass here on the floor
And I can't take this anymore
Stay, stay don't leave now
I'll do anything but let you go
My hands are cold, my eyes can't see
You can't do this, not to me
Rain, rain, go away
I can't stand this one more day
I'll close my eyes, I'll shut my brain
I can't stand this fucking rain
I can't stand the rain
Give me what I want
I need everything I can take
Division of everything
All you have
Principles never worked before
I want everything I can take
Everything I can take
When I was only seventeen
My head was full of brilliant dreams
My heart would call and I would glady go
At twenty one the world was mine
And I was yours and you're divine
And nothing else would matter to us so
I don't believe in destiny
I don't believe in love
I don't believe that anything
Will ever be enough
Man you should have seen us
On the way to venus
Walking on the milky way
It was quite a day hey hey...
Walking on the big stuff
Acting like we're real tough
Baby we were on our way
So what do you say hey hey...
As time goes by reality
Destroys your hope and dignity
There's nothing left but shadows on the wall
But just remember who you are
And where you've been you've come so far
And never ever let them see you fall
I don't believe in miracles
I don't believe in truth
I don't believe that anything
Can recreate your youth
Man you should have seen us
On the way to venus
Walking on the milky way
It was quite a day hey hey...
Walking on the big stuff
Acting like we're real tough
Baby we were on our way
So what do you say hey hey...
Let's move, Let's shake
Let's bleed, Let's fake
Let's go for broke
Let's make mistakes
Let's see, Let's win
Let's pray, Let's cheat
Let's have another dance
Let's watch our feet
Let's die in the arms
Of the girls we love
Let's sell our souls
To the man above
Let's move, Let's go
Let's hop, Let's start
Let's paint the town
Let's break a few hearts
We'll run, We'll shout
We'll thrash, we'll cry
But we'll never grow old
And we'll never die
Lying on a bed
With Apollo in my arms
Doing everything we should
And being killed by her charms
I've got Apollo in my heart
She's tearing me apart
She looks like an angel
Held here in my arms
Though I close my eyes
And I turn away
I'm not letting go
No, not at this stage
Because knowing is only half of it
No matter what they say
And seeing her is believing
From miles and miles away
She's closed her eyes
And she's turned away
She's letting go
And I know she'll say
Let's die in the arms
Of the girls we love
Let's sell our souls
The Autumn leaves were falling
As we raced against the sun
And all but friends stop calling
They assumed the race was run
And no one here can understand or reason
What we¡¯ve done
We can¡¯t provide the answer
But we can provide the gun
It always looked so easy
When we watched it while we¡¯re young
We always found a reason
To be cheerful having fun
Don¡¯t blame the moon
Don¡¯t blame the sun
Just tell me everything will be done
Don¡¯t blame the stars from up above
Just tell me everything is done for love
The energy of arrogance
Is wasted on the young
The power of all the thoughts
We have is greater than the sum
Don¡¯t believe your brothers
They will break you one by one
Don¡¯t believe your daughters
They will never bear you sons
*Repeat Chorus
It always seemed so easy
When we watched it while we¡¯re young
We always found a reason to be cheerful having fun
Don¡¯t blame the moon
Don¡¯t blame the sun
Just tell me everything will be done
Don¡¯t blame the stars from up above
Just tell me everything is done for love
She walks real slow
Talks like an animal
What am I
Supposed to do
I¡¯ve tried to explain
My heart¡¯s not a radio
But I can¡¯t seem
To get to you
Face to face
Tears on a heart of stone
When she talks
I walk away
It seems to me
It¡¯s just a waste of time
These are words
I know she¡¯s heard before
She¡¯s the girl
Guess I¡¯ll always know
And I¡¯ve tried
I¡¯ve tried
She always seems to know
The morning after
But not before
I haven¡¯t slept
Worrying
I know I promised
To come see you
But now I have these
Things to do
All in all
It seems to me
You don¡¯t understand subtlety
Shall I make it obvious
Do you really want me to make up?
She doesn¡¯t talk
For days and days
And when she does
She always says
That I act real slow
Behave like an animal
What am I supposed to do?
And I¡¯ve tried
I¡¯ve tried
But she always seems to know
We don¡¯t make sense
Love and Violence
We don¡¯t make sense
Love and Violence
You say you gotta go now
Well, that's okay
Run away
Like some lost child
You say, I never cared much
That's no lie
Run away
Don't waste your time
You never listen
You never did
But before you walk away
There's just one thing, I've got to say
Stay
Why won't you stay?
Run away
Like some black rose
You say, I never loved you
So you're taking sides
But when there seems no reason
It's just jealousy and pride
You never listen
Oh, you never did
But before you walk away
There's just one thing, I've got to say
Stay
Why won't you stay?
Run away
Like some black rose
But before you walk away
There's just one thing, I've got to say
Stay
Why won't you stay?
Run away
Like some black rose
Stay
Why won't you stay?
Run away
Like some black rose
Stay
Why won't you stay?
Run away
Like some black rose
Kisses over oceans
Like scarlet colored knives
The Universal Wheel
That dominates our lives
Kisses over oceans
Like scarlet colored knives
The Universal Wheel
Save it for the next time
Hands over my head
Faintest sound of lightning
Faintest sound I heard
I?ll never, no, no
I?ll never
All around my body
All around my feet
Please they are watching now
Placed around my feet
All around my body
Please they are watching now
Save it for the next time
Hands over my head
Faintest sound of lightning
Faintest sound I heard
I?ll never, no, no
I?ll never
I?ll never, no, no
I?ll never
All around my body
Everything is as it should be
From motion and heart to the scenery
From make do and mend to the new Paris trend
You said that you learnt but it happens again
What's a heart that refuses to be
Fortunes gained lost on the street
I couldn't believe this would happen again
The things you said and I called you my friend
Each time we tried we failed as before
From laissez faire to the knock on the door
But everything is as it should be
When you give your heart to me
From mo, mo, mo, mo, motion and heart
To heart, heart, heart, heart, heart and move
From mo, mo, mo, mo, motion and heart
SOUVENIR
It's my direction
It's my proposal
It's so hard
It's leading me astray
My obsession
It's my creation
You'll understand
It's not important now
********In conversation
********In combination
********I tell the truth
********My feelings still remain
All I need is
Co-ordination
I can't imagine
My destination
My intention
Ask my opinion
But no excuse
My feelings still remain
My feelings still remain
Everyday
A new start
A cheap affair
A sordid truth
We'll never learn
To guide our hearts
We'll never find
What we deserve
She's leaving
She waited for so long
She'd pretend
Thant she cared
Invent some tale
Just to gain his heart
But no more dreams
She didn't dare
She washed her hands
Of this whole affair
She's leaving
She waited for so long
But as she left
She gave her heart
Abandoned hope
And turned for home
I thought I'd ask
But then again
The more we learn
The less we know
And all the order in our lives
Left some time ago
Along the way
We are the ones who never cry
Like we don't care
Today
Me at home and you out there
And on your way
It's gone so far and now it seems
It's only me
Who cares
I know it helps the times you asked
Though never gained
A little hope to set you free
Less restrained
And though the order in our lives
Left some time ago
We are the ones who never cry
Or so we're told
It's gone so far and now it seems
It's only me
Me at home and you out there
along the way
Me at home and you out there
along the way
Me at home and you out there
along the way
I?m going to get you
(Trash)
For the lies you?ve been telling
(Trash)
And I?m going to tell
(Trash)
The people you call your friends
(Trash)
I?m going to break
(Trash)
Every bone in your body
(Trash)
That perfect little body
(Trash)
That?s been so close to mine
(Trash)
Trash, trash, trash, trash
Trash, trash, trash, trash, trash
Trash, trash, trash, trash
Trash, trash, trash, trash, trash
Trash
We?ve been together
(Trash)
Just as long as I remember
(Trash)
But your mouth is a weapon
(Trash)
That is worse than any knife
(Trash)
Trash, trash, trash, trash
Trash, trash, trash, trash, trash
Trash, trash, trash, trash

Trash, trash, trash, trash
Trash, trash, trash, trash, trash

Here we come again
Like a message in the pouring rain
And every now and then
I still call your name
Like partners in crime
Every once in a while
The the fishes at sea
It's just the life we lead
We're going up
We're going down again
We're going up
We're going down again
Watch us fall
And time stood still
In a distant town
I know you
I know you much too well
Last year you said
It's time to settle down
Last time I saw you
You were still running around
Going up
Going down again
Watch us fall
Watch us fall
Remember when you said
It's time to settle down
Well last time I saw you
You were still running around
Going up
Going down again
We're going up
We're coming down again
Watch us fall
Watch us fall
Watch us fall
According to Andy McCluskey, there are NO LYRICS to this song, he purposely sang in a mumbled voice because he culd not come up with any lyrics that would work for the track. The band laid the track first, liked it, but Andy couldn't put words to it, so he just mumbled a bunch of stuff that sounded good and they kept it on the track!!!
I discovered a big town
On the crest of a wave
Throwing money at strangers
Taking candy from babes
Shaking hands in a big top
As the rain came down
I though it would not stop
Sending letters to paris
From the empire state
Taking pictures from the top
There's alot of things
For you to do
There's alot of dreams
That won't come true
I grew up in a big town
The lessons were not hard to learn
If you want them to love you
Then you must not love them in return
Spent the night at a party
Where I drank so much
I fell under your spell
Eight o'clock in the morning
And the daylight makes me
Look and feel like hell
There's alot of things
For you to do
There's alot of dreams
That won't come true
There's alot of things
For you to do
There's alot of dreams
That won't come true
When you live in a big town
There are sights and sounds
That make you want to cry
When you live in a big town
There are sights and sounds
That make you want to cry
When you live in a big town
There are sights and sounds
That make you want to cry
When you live in a big town
There are sights and sounds
Come take me down to your heart of gold, and I will hear your song.
Cover me up in your fantasy world, where I can do you no harm.
And hold me now close to you.
Fear the thoughts I am sending.
Hold me now close again.
This dream is almost ending.
Come take me down to your victory waltz, and I will break your heart.
Gaze once again at the promise we made, that I have torn all apart.
And hold me now close to you.
As though we're still pretending.
Hold me now close again.
Music for your tape recorder.
I hope you will enjoy it.
Extra, extra...
This is Helena, this is Helena.
Extra, extra...
This is Helena, your M.C. today.
The more I see you
The more I want you
Somehow this feeling
Just grows and grows
With every sigh I become
More mad about you
More lost without you
And so it goes
Can you imagine
How much I love you
The more I see you
As years go by
I know the only one for me
Can only be you
My arms won't free you
And my heart won't try
Each time I look at you
Is like the first time
Each time you're near me
The thrill is new
And there is not a single thing I wouldn't do for
The rare delight of the sight of you
And there is not one single thing
I wouldn't do for
The rare delight of the sight of you
And the more I see you
The more I see you
The more I see you
The more I see you
The more I see you
The more I see you
The more I see you
The more I see you
And the more I see you
The more I see you
The more I see you
The more I see you
The more I see you
Everyday
This is where we start
This now take our hearts
Away
Thus we reach the end
The beginning and the end
You see
I could not try
And here you and I
Parting due to me only
And now
Eternally this field remains Stanlow
No heart or head or mind
No season could erase
We set you down to care for us, Stanlow
A vision fading fast
A million hearts to one
So restrained, she turns away, Stanlow
I've seen her face in every day
The same routine along the way
Tonight in the rain alone
And then again it's been so long
Since one single promise kept
All to say to reason
We wanted a heart to say what we want to
A morning comes just as it left
The warmer feeling seldom owned
And tonight all I see alone
And as she turned we always knew
The way you moved I can't explain
The mood subsides and grows again
I've lived alone, I've held a hand
I've tried to care and understand
What is faith and when belief?
And who knows how these things deceive
I never said and though I tried
If I could leave and sleep tonight
I can't imagine
How this ever came to be
Can't imagine
We always stick together
Like we're something made of glue
And justify the passion
Saying one is more than two
But if you don't believe the words
They're surely to come true
There's one thing that's so obvious
But it's something you won't do
Because you stand above me
But I know you don't
You say you love me
But I know you won't
We always say we're happy
When you know it's never true
But I was just so frightened
Of the things you'd say and do
But if you don't believe the words
They're surely to come true
It's starting to be so obvious
That it's something you won't do
Because you stand above me
But I know you don't
You say you love me
But I know you won't
But if you don't believe the words
They're surely to come true
There's one thing that's so obvious
But it's something you won't do
Because you stand above me
But I know you don't
You say you love me
Those girls are laughing now
They take my breath away
And all these dreams I'ce had
Come back to me
The light is never on
They haven't fixed it yet
But catholic girls, they never fear
They grew up with that
Those girls are always dreaming
They need your sympathy
Their vision's fading now
Changing by degree
So take me away
Life is never this strange
Counting your blessings
When you're out of rain
Those girls are laughing now
They take my breath away
In all these dreams I've had
the dead girls say
Counting our blessings like an extra day
We turn and walk away
Counting our blessings like an extra day
We prayed you wouldn't stay
The dead girls never care
They never were that way
The dead girls never peak
On a ship to nowhere
On a dark and tranquil sea
I'm sinking with a cargo
Of the things that cannot be
On the far horizon
The final sunsets fall
And Tuesday becomes Wednesday
Becomes any day at all
Everything we do
Nothing remains true
I am frightened, I'm a liar
And I'm tortured by desire
Every single day
In all the simple ways
I am torn apart inside
By the things I've tried to hide
Down the dusty roads we go
And down the leafy lanes
And down the long and winding road
The landscape stays the same
Everything we do
Nothing remains true
I am frightened, I'm a liar
And I'm tortured by desire
Every single day
In all the simple ways
I am torn apart inside
By the things I've tried to hide
Everything we do
Nothing remains true
I am frightened, I'm a liar
And I'm tortured by desire
And every single day
In all the simple ways
I am torn apart inside
Talking loud and clear
Saying just what we feel
Lying in the grass
With the sun on our backs
It doesn¡¯t really matter
What we do or what we say
With every little movement
We give ourselves away
Opposite and opposite
Decisions are reversed
Facing one another
With words that couldn¡¯t hurt
With every little word
You¡¯re getting closer to me
Talking loud and clear
Saying just what we feel today
Talking loud and clear
Saying just what we feel
Lying in the grass
We¡¯ve got time on our hands
Body next to body
With silence all around
We understand each other
But didn¡¯t make a sound
Promises and promises
Of vows we shall return
Facing one another
I thought my heart would burn
You turn to move away
But then get closer to me
Talking loud and clear
Saying just what we feel today
God only knows this isn't heaven.
The promises made, we never keep them.
Chorus:
We're walking on air, we're taking our time.
But God only knows this isn't reason or rhyme.
I've had this feeling I don't believe in.
It's happened before, I just reject it.
Repeat chorus
These are the feelings, I know their outcome.
It's useless pretending, I'd like to beat them.
Repeat chorus
We're walking on air, we're taking our time, this time.
But God only knows, this isn't reason or rhyme.
We're walking on air...
Chorus:
I've got a telegraph in my hand.
Words on paper, written in sand.
We've got telegraph, right across this land.
It doesn't mean a damn thing.
We don't understand.
But who needs telegraph anyway?
Repeat chorus
We've got telegraph, right across this land.
It doesn't mean a damn thing.
We don't understand, we never understand!
God's got a telegraph nn his side.
It makes him powerful, gives him pride.
Even in america, God bless america!
They understand the value of the telegraph.
Hand in hand, hand in hand...

What's a heart that refuses to be

>From laissez faire to the knock on the door

When you give your heart to me
From mo mo mo mo motion and heart
to heart heart heart heart heart and move
from mo mo mo mo motion and heart
to heart heart heart heart heart and move
It worries me this kind of thing
How you hope to live alone
And occupy your waking hours
We're taking sides again
I just wept I couldn't understand
Why you started this again
And every day you send me more
It makes it worse is this a plan of yours
To ensure I don't forget
I'd write and tell you that I've burnt them all
But you never send me your address
And I've, I've kept them anyway
So don't ask me if I think it's true
That communication can bring hope to those
Who have gone their separate ways
It hardly touched me when it should have then
But memories are uncertain friends
When recalled by messages
Coded messages
Poison letters
I love and hate you
at the same time
I need you don't need you
is that such a crime
I wouldn't walk down the road
to say goodbye
I couldn't give you up
to some other guy
I wouldn't do anything
that you asked me to
but you know
that it's true
I still love you
I want you to help me
to make up my mind
I need you to hear me at least
some of the time
I wouldn't blame you
if you had to run away
I couldn't stand to live
like this another day
but I would sell my soul
to get you back today
cause you know
that it's true
I still love you
I wouldn't blame you
if you had to run away
I couldn't stand to live
like this another day
but I would sell my soul
to get you back today
cause you know
that it's true
I still love you
and you know
that it's true
I still love you
and you know
that it's true
I still love you
La femme accident¡¯s
Got everything you want
You never have to know
She¡¯s hanging on your every word
She clings to your heart
She won¡¯t let you depart
Oh this mine
But she¡¯s with you all the time
She¡¯s crying like a fragile child
But if you get to know her
She¡¯s not a little girl
And if she gets to know you
You can¡¯t escape her world
La femme accident
A woman full of want
Her hearts on the line
You haven¡¯t go the time
She suffers like some Joan of Arc
She says there¡¯s just no justice
in this world
She¡¯s paradise for a day
La femme accident
What reason could you want
Just use her and turn away
La femme accident
Got everything you want
She¡¯s paradise for a day
If Joan of Arc
Had a heart
Would she give it as a gift
To such as me
Who longs to see
How an angel ought to be
She seems to give
Her heart away
Like an orphan on the wain
She cared so much
She offered up
Her body to the flames
Once again he's all alone
Here I am the king of stone
Gave away the love he'd know
Just to be the king of stone
The only life he's ever known {the empty world that he'd made his own}
But I don't believe I'm made of stone
Now you've seen me
Now you don't
Can you hear me
Because quite soon you won't
So save your whispers
For some other man
Because I can hear you you
And I know who I am
Once again he's all alone
Here I am the king of stone
Once again he's all alone
Here I am the king of stone
Once again he's all alone
A little catholic girl
Who¡¯s fallen in love
A face on a page
A gift from above
She should have known better
Than to giver her heart
She should have known better
Than to ever part
Without me
Without me
I gave her everything
That I ever owned
I think she Understood
But she never spoke
She shouldn¡¯t oughta try
To be that way
She shouldn¡¯t have to go there
Ever again
Without me
Without me
Now listen to us good
And listen well
Listen to us all
And everything we tell
We should have known better
Than to giver her away
We should have known better
To this very day
Without me
Without me
Now listen Joan of Arc
All you gotta do
Is say the right words
And I¡¯ll be coming through
Hold you in my arms
And take you
Right away
Now she's on her way
To another land
We never understood
Why she gave her hand
She shouldn't oughta promise
Because it's just pretend
I know she doesn't mean it
And she'll leave again
Without me
Without me
Without me
Without me
If you leave, don't leave now
Please don't take my heart away
Promise me, just one more night
Then we'll go our separate ways
We've always had time on our side
Now it's fading fast
Every second, every moment
We've gotta make it last
I touch you once, I touch you twice
I won't let go at any price
I need you now like I need you then
You always said we'd still be friends someday
If you leave I won't cry
I won't waste a single day
But if you leave don't look back
I'll be running the other way
Seven years went under the bridge
Like time was standing still
Heaven knows what happens now
You've gotta say you will
I'll touch you once, I'll touch you twice
I won't let go at any price
I need you now like I need you then
You always said we'd meet again someday
I touch you once, I touch you twice
I won't let go at any price
I need you now like I need you then
You always said we'd meet again someday
If you leave
If you leave
If you leave
Don't look back
Our one source of energy
The ultimate discovery
Electric blue for me
Never more to be free
Electricity
Nuclear and HEP
Carbon fuels from the sea
Wasted electricity
Our one source of energy
Electricity
All we need to live today
A gift for man to throw away
The chance to change has nearly gone
The alternative is only one
The final source of energy
Solar electricity
Electricity
Electricity
Electricity
Electricity
Electricity
E . . .
[Incomprehensible]
There's a flame of hope
Burning in my heart
And there's a strange emotion
Tearing me apart
'Cause I know, I know
'Cause I know
There's a flame of hope
Calling out your name
When my arms embrace you
It extinguishes the flame
'Cause I know, I know
'Cause I know
I never wanted another
Come over to me and discover
How I want to be near you
And you need to be far away
You always seem to make me feel at home
Hey you
People like
I never knew, I never knew, I never knew why
You make me wanna cry
I never knew, I never knew, I never knew why
Forever live and die
I look at all of the people
Doing it over and over
You never get any older
I wish that you could be here
I look at you and I
Make the same mistakes
Hey you
People like
I never knew, I never knew, I never knew why
You make me wanna cry
I never knew, I never knew, I never knew why
Forever Live and Die
I never knew, I never knew, I never knew why
You make me wanna cry
I never knew, I never knew, I never knew why
Forever Live and Die
Repeat to fade
