I know there's a certain amount
To what you're thinking
My hopes never seem to amount
To more than stopping smoking
Everyone knows better. I'll do it anyway
Everyone knows better oh yeah
Heroes never seem
To allow for self-expression
Lovers stick around
To allow what they think you're missing
Everyone knows better. I'll do it anyway
Everyone knows better. I'll do it anyway
Looking around
To avoid what's in front of you
Good intentions
Wrapped round like some old sweater
A vain hope
That it might be good for you
You mind is made
Make your mind up
Make your mind up
Make your mind up
We like to make the same mistakes
Sunshine
A ray of hope in a hopeless situation
Suntanned
Your reward for the hopeful hours that you spend
Burning
Everyone knows better. I'll do it anyway
Everyone knows better. I'll do it anyway
Everyone knows better. I'll do it anyway
Everyone thinks they know better
I'll do it anyway
Looking around
To avoid what's in front of you
Good intentions
Wrapped round like some old sweater
A vain hope
That it might be good for you
Shattered glass, shooting stars, silver sparks
Come and shine on me
Take your time, don't hurry baby
Break a smile, when you come to me
I'm up on a high
Catch me if you fall
Up on a high
Your love fills me like a waterfall
Iris art, skin on skin, let me in
Take a ride with me
Take a trip, don't worry baby
Love the way we satisfy a need
I'm up on a high
Catch me if you fall
Up on a high
Catch me if you fall
You love fills me like a waterfall
Love. Love. Love. Love.
Love. Love. Love. Love. Love.
Slaughterhouse nursery rhyme
Numb it with your anodyne
Seraphim serpentine
Wrap me in your anodyne heart
I'm up on a high
Catch me if you fall
Up on a high
Catch me if you fall
Lustra
There's something hiding behind your immaculate smile
You have always known, so let it out
Lustra
I fell your anger swell the radical in your style, girl
Take the cross you bear and throw it out
She's coming up, coming up
Breathe it in and let it out
Let it go, be yourself, take a shot
It's what you've always known now
You've always known now
What you waiting for
Lustra
It's gonna take as long, as long as it will take
To strike a match to your silence
Take the pain you bear and burn it out
She's coming up, coming up
Breathe it in and let it out
Let it go, be yourself, take a shot and give it out
Coming up, coming up
Breathe it in and let it out
Let it go, be yourself, take a shot
It's what you've always known now
You've always known now
What you waiting for
Lustra
Don't you know where's no tomorrow
In a sense, there's no way out
Innocence is all you're born with
Inner sense dictates the way you wheel
The way you deal with knowing who you are
Lustra
You know where hell is when you
Fight the maze of denial
Do it
You've gotta take a shot
Give all you've got for your dreams girl
She's coming up, coming up
Breathe it in and let it out
Let it go, be yourself, take a shot and give it out
Coming up, coming up
Breathe it in and let it out
Let it go, be yourself, take a shot
It's what you've always known now
I get it on
When I lay my fingers on
Let me drift away
Take me to a place I have known before
Let me hear the words you know I adore
Let me slip away to a world I know
When you sing
Oh oh oh oh take me
I am a slave to your charms
Turn it on
And I wanna celebrate
I can hear your song
Rushing through my veins, it surrounds me now
Touching me inside, I can ride the sound
When you sing
Oh oh oh oh take me
I am a slave to your charms
Turn it on
Can I lay my fingers on?
Soaking in the way you shine
Your rhythm slides around my mind
I've really got it now
Serenades that nearly split my senses
Oh so special
Turn it on
When you sing
Oh oh oh oh take me
I am a slave to your charms
Turn it on
And I wanna celebrate
Get it on
Get it on
Get it on
It is not too late to carry on
So you've made mistakes, and here's another one
Oh, but you deserve another chance
Chasing 'round until you phase yourself
Chorus:
The world is flat and we're insane
And we have fallen off again
It really helps to know the way
What if you take more than you deserve?
(more than you deserve)
What if you give all and you get nothing back?
Sell your soul - nature's stereo
Take your favourite songs and sail away
Chorus:
The world is flat and we're insane
And we have fallen off again
The world is round and we are mad
And world opinion's where it's at
Don't make this so
Don't take the blow
The world is flat and we're insane
I won't be sad, I won't be sorry
I've no regrets and I don't worry
I'll roll this sail and I won't let go
I'd rather wait until tomorrow
There are some who do, and some do not (there are some who don't)
There are some who can't and we're the other ones
Shave your face - let your body go
Take your favourite songs and sail away
Chorus:
The world is flat and we're insane
And we have fallen off again
The world is round and we are mad
And world opinion's where it's at
Don't make this so
Don't take the blow
I wanna get wired on something new
I wanna get high on something
I wanna get wired on something new
Every wide open space
It's the gaping holes that get to you
They frighten you
An echo of your emptiness
Every lie that you've fed
You can kiss my open spaces
I am safe from you
I'm better now, I'm better now
I wanna get wired on something new
I wanna get high on something
I wanna get wired on something new
Every scan I've erased
Leave a memory that will prey on you
An overspill
I hope it will, I hope it will
All the time I have wasted
Tasted bitterness
Now I confess, you waste my space
At any time, at any rate
I wanna get wired on something new
I wanna get high on something
I wanna get wired on something new
Now you're up against a wall
It's the other side that scares you
And you're groping through the hole
And you're hoping for a way out
Your strength is on it's last legs
You could be somewhere else
Instead you're blinded by the way out
The way out and it's right here
I wanna get wired on something new
I wanna get high on something
I wanna get wired on something new
I wanna get high on something
High above the roof tops
Higher than the milky way
Slipping through the hourglass
Shooting up the desert plain
You are one life older than before
But you can't stop this chill
Now you're falling in slow motion
Though the air is still
If you close your eyes
Then I will take you all the way
Let me close your eyes
And I will take it all the way
You are on the outside
Hands upon the window sill
I am on the inside
Carving up the hunter's kill
If you wouldclose your eyes
Then I can take you all the way
Let me close your eyes
And I will take it all the way
Cruising on a missile
Cruising on a desert plain
Wading through a minefield
Wading through the monsoon rain
Surfing on an oil spill
Surfing on a perfect wave
Porn upon the airwaves
Rituals of the mating game
'Cause if you close your eyes
Then I can take you all the way
Let me close your eyes
And I will take it all the way
'Cause if you close your eyes
Then I can take you all the way
Let me close your eyes
What I tell is a different story,
What I have, I take, then give it all away,
So if you? d like to come this way,
Then help me climb the walls that stand before me.
I wanna know,
If this is just a game,
Can anybody play,
Can everybody win,
Can you believe it,
I may be lost, I may be blind,
I may be cursing most of the time
But it? s half the fun,
And in this world we spin and shout
We want it all we want it now,
They said? oh shut your mouth
You don't know what you talk about?.
I wanna know,
If this is just a game,
Can anybody play,
Can everybody win.
Another show another scene,
The city sleeps below you sing a lullaby,
Another show another scene and,
I can? t imagine the world without me,
I can? t imagine the world without me,
I can? t imagine the world without me, hey,
I'm on a roll, I'm on a roll, la la la la.
I'm on a roll la la la la,
I'm on a roll la la la la,
I'm on a roll la la la la,
Me me me me me me me me me,
Time stands still
When you fear your hope is gonna fade
Hope doesn't come
'Til you catch your fear and give it away
I'm waiting for the tide
The darkness of this night to fade into the night
And it won't be long, I hope it won't be long
Oh no
Told me they would come
Told me they were gonna take him away
He's the only one
He's the one that makes me feel this way
And don't you criticize
What you can't understand
He's the pulse inside my hand
He's the only one, he is the only one
I see, hear, taste, I breathe him
Seven years and thirteen days
Oh, I wouldn't forsake him
My own disturbed angel boy
I would wait a thousand years for you
Breathe into your heart
Let me taste the color of your core
Memory rewind
To the heady time we had before
Coming up, I'm coming down
Reaching up and falling down
The time is coming 'round
And it won't be long
I hope it won't be long
I see, hear, taste, I breathe him
Seven years and thirteen days
Oh, I wouldn't forsake him
My own disturbed angel boy
I would wait a thousand years for you
Coming up, I'm coming down
Reaching up and falling down
The time is coming round
And it won't be long
I know it won't be long
I see, hear, taste, I breathe him
Seven years and thirteen days
Oh I wouldn't forsake him
My own disturbed angel boy
I see, hear, taste, I breathe him
Seven years and thirteen days
Oh I wouldn't forsake him
My own disturbed angel boy
I would wait a thousand years for you
I would wait a thousand years for you
As I cradle what you told me to
Still defined by wounds that grow in you
Opened ashes bleeding as you die
I never felt besides, I only lied
Have I forgiven you, I forgiven you
Am I becoming you, I becoming you
Will I grieve for you, will I die for you
Have I forgiven, am I becoming you
Create a focus for my decline
...your drifting fine
I cannot bleed for you, I cannot cut your lines
Another... to push deeper as we die
Have I forgiven you, I forgiven you
Am I becoming you, I becoming you
Will I grieve for you, will I die for you
Have I forgiven, am I becoming you
You cannot touch me now
I cannot hurt you
Do you bleed with me
Do I grieve for you
Have I forgiven you, I forgiven you
Am I becoming you, I becoming you
Will I grieve for you, will I die for you
Stood up at a border street
A souped up strut on swollen feet
My loss remembered incomplete
What memory knows I can't repeat
Offered army soul salvation
Sandwich choice of God and nation
Haloed voices, chiseled faces
Fill my head with empty spaces
Out of the breakdown of the whole
Back to the choices on repeat
Out of a life put on hold
Once again a bulldog baby
Classified as cheap and lazy
Inner pity meat mutation
Pay the price for approbation
Welcome to the new dictators
Power, drugs and imitators
Out of the breakdown of the whole
Back to the choices on repeat
Out of a life put on hold
Mother's dressed in alligator
All good children love to hate her
Out of the breakdown of the whole
Back to the choices on repeat
Out of a life put on hold
Save your point of view
For the manic charm that he puts you through
When he wears your pearls, your ruby dress
And he looks so good with his sunken chest
There's a certain charm
To the pretty boy that is on my arm
He's my double friend, a boy and a girl
when he says:
Paint my face, lick your mouth
Fake a yawn and we'll go out and glow
We're on our way to somewhere in particular
I'll take you somewhere, where you haven't been
And I'll show you a good time, like you've never seen
Here comes the big rush
There's a special ring
To his Cuban heels and his six-pack swing
His mother's clothes are his new disguise
And his good advice when he says:
Vanity's a virtue, lets no one in to hurt you
I'll take you somewhere, where you haven't been
And I'll show you a good time, like you've never seen
Here comes the big rush
You're one of the boys
Pump that pipe dream, sell you something
New, new, new
We're on our way to somehwere in particular
I'll take you somewhere, where you haven't been
And I'll show you a good time, like you've never seen
Here comes the big rush
You're one of the boys
Pump that pipe dream, sell you something
pump that pipe dream, sell you something
Impotence, the price of a dark affair,
It's more than a bellyache,
There's something alive in here.
What do i, what do I care now that it's over,
What do I care i, what do I care now that it's over.
Splinters... shatter my one track mind
I lie on a sea of nails and thorns
Spitting out the same old line.
Oh. what do i, what do I care now that it's over,
What do I care i, what do I care now that it's over.
Now you shoot me down,
Serenade my ears my heart I'm falling falling,
Echoing your sound.
Winter's breath all fall down,
Spin me out and spin me round,
Enter darkness enter lies, oh no.
What do i, what do I care now that it's over
What do I care I what do I care now that it's over
Now you shoot me down, serenade my ears my heart
Inside it harbors
Desire bruises my skin
So near I? m hungry
I? d like to have more
In control, I? ve lost it
I? d like to try it again
It warms inside me
We? re moving one step closer each time
There? s nobody like you
Nobody like you
Nobody like you
Nobody like you anyway, oh anyway
There? s nobody like you
Nobody like you
Nobody can touch you
Nobody like you anyway, oh anyway
Everyone knows
We fall, slow motion
I taste your breath in my veins
Like waves, vibrations
It? s coming up again
Let me climb inside you
Caress your fever tongue
Spread my wings around you
And we can slide
There? s nobody like you
Nobody like you
Nobody like you
Nobody like you anyway, oh anyway
There? s nobody like you
Nobody like you
Nobody can touch you
Nobody like you anyway, oh anyway
Everyone knows
I? ve always craved
I tried to feed the hunger of an empty grave
You? ve shown me secrets I? ve not forgotten
I? ll give you all the love that I take, that I take
Inside it harbors
Desire bruises my skin
So near I? m hungry
We? re moving one step closer each time
There? s nobody like you
Nobody like you
Nobody like you
Nobody like you anyway, oh anyway
There? s nobody like you
Nobody like you
Nobody can touch you
Nobody like you anyway, oh anyway
There? s nobody like you
Can you? Can you? Can oh, oh, oh
There? s nobody like you
Can you? Can you? Can oh, oh, oh
There? s nobody like you
You're moving in a circle,
I'm coming on in a little dizzy spells,
And the room is all forlorn,
We could be stuck in substance hell,
Some more of this is what we need,
So hand in hand and off we sway.
I'm not that close, I'm not that close to you,
I'm not that close, I'm not that close to you.
Your face is taking pictures of itself,
I close my eyes and sighs explode,
We sellotape the telephone,
And all the little voices grow,
Some more of this is what we need,
So hand in hand and off we sway.
I'm not that close, i'm not that close to you, oh oh oh,
I'm not that close, I'm not that close to you,
It's only the state I'm in and i'm about to come down,
It's only the mess within in about to come out.
La la la la la, la ...
It's only the state I'm in, I'm about to come down,
It's only the mess within is about to come out,
I'm not that close, I'm not that close to you,
I'm not that close, I'm not that close to you.
Is it wrong to be alone,
An adventure of my own,
A celebration of myself and me,
Discovering what I can be,
The half a couple fantasy.
Oh luck is on my side,
I celebrate my life,
Don't try to come,
Don't pin me down with vows and flowers.
I was brought up, I've been told,
That a husband is the goal,
What connotations in these loaded words,
A spinster and a batchelor,
I am whole all by myself,
I don't need nobody else.
Oh luck is on my side,
I celebrate my life,
Don't try to come,
Don't pin me down with vows and flowers.
Oh luck is on my side,
I celebrate my life,
Don't try to come,
Don't pin me down with vows and flowers.
Father ruler king computer
Father ruler king computer
Father ruler king computer
Hello destiny is this what you want from me,
Don't anybody try to stop me.
Oh luck is on my side,
I celebrate my life,
Don't try to come,
Don't pin me down with vows and flowers.
Oh luck is on my side,
I celebrate my life,
Don't try to come,
Don't pin me down,
Let the fear dislocate,
Lest we frown upon the female agressor,
Makes no sense, goes against the gender,
Let her anger curse the years of oppression,
Blame the mother, sell the sister,
Before she blows you away.
Won't someone give her a gun, won't someone,
Won't someone give her a gun, won't someone.
In a lifetime full of changes,
A woman? s group is still a second-class convention,
Look around who has the power,
Am I a big mouth with a fix of paranoia,
On your side, on your side,
Not here for the ride.
Won't someone give her a gun, won't someone,
Won't someone give her a gun, won't someone.
Oh oh a gun.
Half the population, one percent of wealth,
Half the population, one percent of wealth,
Blame the mother sell the sister,
Blame the mother, sell the sister,
Oh before I blow you away.
Won't someone give her a gun, won't someone,
Won't someone give her a gun, won't someone,
Won't someone give her a gun, won't someone,
I've tried so hard, you know I can't do more
It's the turn of the card, it's the close of the door
The lies you told, you know they hurt so deep
So I'll go home and cry myself to sleep
And day after day, you've been treating me bad
Friends come up and say, "Why do you take all that?"
'Cause it's making me moan and it's making me weep
So I'll go home and cry myself to sleep
You play at love like a child plays games
One day I'm in then I'm out again
You change the rules and I just can't win
You've broken me now so I give in, yeah, yeah
I've been through worse but I don't know what
Oh, I gave to you, everything that I got
So take this heart or what's left to keep
And I'll go home and cry myself to sleep
So I'll go home and cry myself to sleep
Cry myself to sleep
Cry myself to sleep
Cry myself to sleep
Cry myself to sleep
Cry myself to sleep
Here it comes the fools parade,
Another clueless masquerade,
And they're way too slow,
A waste of space,
Yes they're way too slow,
Get out of the way.
Go away,
In my way,
Go away,
In the way oh.
Here we go a suckers ride,
Hearts and minds are paralyzed,
And they're way too stupid,
They'll be just fine,
Yes they're way too stupid,
A waste of time,
Everybody's looking for something,
Everybody's looking for clues,
And they're way too late,
They missed the news,
And they think they're great,
With their fucked up points of view.
Go away,
In my way,
Go away,
In the way oh.
All because you thought for yourself now,
Naughty girl you thought for yourself now.
Go away,
In a taxi chasing for the sun,
All around us strangers everyone,
With no hope for what they hope for,
We could drive all of our tears away.
Oh oh ho run run away,
Maybe we could run away,
Oh oh ho run run away,
Maybe we could run away,
Oh oh ho.
In a taxi ride that ends too soon,
The city skyline tries to kick the moon,
We have no time for what they wait for,
We can drive all of our tears away.
Oh oh ho run run away,
Maybe we could run away,
Oh oh ho run run away,
Maybe we could run away,
Oh oh ho.
You and I against the walled in generation,
You and I could kick the walls away,
We have no time for what they wait for,
We can run fast we can run far.
Oh oh ho run run away,
Maybe we could run away,
Oh oh ho run run away,
Maybe we could run away,
Oh oh ho run run away,
Maybe we could run away,
Oh oh ho run run away,
Maybe we could run away,
In all day, out all night
You and I see the sights in paradise
Very nice
Take me home, do it 'til your hear aches
And then you'll know my mind
And if I stay
I'd only drive you mad
I'm not that stable, I'm not so right in a way
I find myself at odds wanting to be here
Never arrive
Love and Peace
Ill at ease with naked greed
Hunger feeding, aim to please, what a teaser
Maybe I owe it to my own ways
But then I know my mind
You see, I know, I've been there before
And if I stay
I'd only drive you mad
I'm not that stable, I'm not so right in a way
I find myself at odds wanting to be here
Never arrive
If I stay
I'm not the type of girl
Waitin for someone
Waiting at home there's a way out
And only time can tell
Will be here, Will I begone
In all day, out all night
What a nice surprise,
Well have I spoilt your appetite,
And I told you once,
I told you once,
So let me tell you twice,
I wanted to say,
A toast to emotion,
Raise your glasses high,
And turn them this way,
A balance of hormones,
That make you feel like no one else,
Make you just the sane.
Here's to love, here's to hate,
Here's to all the things that makes me realise,
This is a four letter word,
Here's to fear, here's to fate,
Here's to all the things that makes me realise,
This is a four letter word oh oh.
It's coming loud and clear,
God I fancy you my dear,
Well I might be wrong,
I might be wrong,
I might need glasses all along,
My deepest emotions,
Nothing more than chemical equations,
Symphonies of stimulants,
Swimming round in a beating gland,
Really caused a traffic jam.
Here's to love, here's to hate,
Here's to everything that makes me realise,
This is a four letter word,
Here's to fear, here's to fate,
Here's to all the things that makes me realise,
This is a four letter word,
Here's to love, here's to hate,
Here's to everything that makes me realise,
Here and now,
We are alone,
Time she will hold her breath,
Only the worms and angels,
Know our names,
But they have not found us,
Although they surround us,
I feel the distance closing.
Come along,
For you and I know,
We've lived through the centuries,
We've ridden the darkest horses,
All our lives,
We hunted our enemies,
We fought with a fallacy,
It's time we were all God's children.
Far away,
The galaxies soar,
The stars are exploding still,
I wish we could fly away,
Fly away.
Here and now,
For you and I know,
True love is deathless,
These crumbling days are ending,
By my side,
Let's walk in the garden,
We'll sleep in the ivy,
Everybody's staring at my
Everybody's out to catch my eye
I've gotta think it over
I've gotta think it over
Everybody's got somebody to
All I wanted was a body to hide
I've gotta think it over
I've gotta think it over
I'm not a saint
I'm not a saint
I'm not a saint
I'm not a saint
Dog is barking, head is hurting
Car is chasing, hands are dirty
I've gotta think it over
I've gotta think it over
I'm not a saint
I'm not a saint
(It's the way I feel inside)
I'm not a saint
I'm not a saint
You were grounded,
Hadn't eaten or slept for days,
When I found you,
You're washed out,
Your life, your loves,
Everyone founders,
But you are a spell that I'm under.
Alive, live for the rest of your life,
You're alive, live for the rest of your life,
It's the way it goes.
You were wounded,
Suck the poison from your vein,
Sow a seed for you,
A fever once again,
Your life, your death,
Everything's wrong,
But you are the heart of this song.
Alive, live for the rest of your life,
You're alive, live for the rest of your life,
You're alive, live, live, live, la la la la la la live,
You are alive, you are alive.
It's the way it goes,
It's the way we are,
It's the way we chose,
It's the way we are.
My life your death,
Everyone founders,
But you are a spell that I'm under.
Alive, live for the rest of your life
You're alive, live for the rest of your life
You're alive, live, live, live, la la la la la la live,
Sugar smile savvy, the king of the kerb
Got a temper in the style of a bomb
Got his friends in his pocket or safe behind bars
All the local boys know what he? s done
He turns it on
He turns it on
He turns it on
Same boys doin' it for themselves
There? s somebody out there doin' it for you
Safe white, you? re paying out for your health
They? re the kings of the kerb
And everybody knows what they? re worth
Sugar smile savvy, the king of the kerb
Keeps the order in this part of the town
All the shadows in the alley, the shapes at the bar
Like to service him when he does the round
He turns it on
He turns it on
He turns it on
Same boys doin' it for themselves
There? s somebody out there doin' it for you
Safe white, you? re paying out for your health
They? re the kings of the kerb
And everybody knows what they? re worth
Safe from home and safe from greed
A little protection is all that you need
Safe from home and safe from greed
They? re just a rocket machine
Same boys doin' it for themselves
There? s somebody out there doin' it for you
Same boys doin' it for themselves
There? s somebody out there doing it for you
Same boys doin' it for themselves
There? s somebody out there lookin' it for you
Safe white, you? re paying out for your health
They? re the kings of the kerb
They? re the kings of the kerb
They? re the kings of the kerb
She leaves her brains at the door,
She drops her guts on the floor,
She only listens out for everyday noises,
She very calmly ignores,
The littie things she abhors,
She's made her mind up to be tidy.
It could change, it will never,
It could change, it will never,
It could change, it will never,
It could change, it will never,
It could change.
He keeps his fingernails neat,
He cleans the car once a week,
He keeps an eye out for resistitle bargains,
But everynight in his sleep,
He dreams of sex on the street,
He longs for pantyhose and roses.
It could change, it will never,
It could change, it will never,
It could change, it will never,
It will change, it could never,
It could change, change,
Oh!.
All these years, all this time,
Learn to suffer, compromise,
Turn away, tolerate,
Learn to suffer what you hate.
And it could change, it will never,
It could change, it will never,
It could change, it will never,
It will change, it could never,
It could change, change.
You got me walking alone,
You got me walking alone,
You got me walking alone,
You got me walking alone.
You should have been a rambler,
A counterfeit gambler,
Would you steal the sunflowers for me,
I see you've been fighting,
With molotov writing,
They tried to drag you under, I see.
Did they try to tell you you're strange,
Did they try to push you away,
Hold on.
Feed the fire, fan the flame,
Tiii the world remembers your name,
Till you found of the sight what you see.
Feed the fire, fan the flame,
Till the world remembers your name,
Something hot in a cold country.
Hold on to your spirits,
You're a pain, not a poet,
You're special and they know it,
They can see,
They throw a net that pins you to the ground,
Don't let their blindness bring you down,
Be stubborn and enioy it like me.
Did they try to tell you you're strange,
Did they try to push you away,
Hold on.
Feed the fire, fan the flame,
Tiii the world remembers your name,
Till you found the fire that you see.
Feed the fire, fan the flame,
Till the world remembers your name,
Something hot in a cold country.
I won't see you falling,
Hold on hold on.
Feed the fire, fan the flame,
Till the world remembers your name,
Till you find out the sight that you see.
Feed the fire, fan the flame,
Till the world remembers your name,
Something hot in a cold country.
I won't see you falling,
I wanna do great things,
I don't wanna compromise,
I wanna know what life is,
I wanna know everything,
I wanna do great things,
I don't wanna compromise,
I wanna know what love is,
Is it something I do to myself.
All is fair in love and war,
Or so they say and so the saying goes,
But I've seen more broken hearts,
Than you can count the bullets in a war,
Oh what do I know,
There's gotta be so much I don't know.
I wanna do great things,
I don't wanna compromise,
I wanna know what life is,
I wanna try everything,
I wanna do great things,
I don't wanna compromise,
I wanna know what love is,
Is it something I do to myself,
Something I do to myself.
What is life apart from memories or
Dreams and friendships we have known
And it smells childhood tales
Contemplating clothes that you have worn
Oh what do I know
There's gotta be so much I don't know
I wanna do great things,
I don't wanna compromise,
I wanna know what life is,
Is it something I do to myself,
Something I do to myself.
Never wanted many things,
Except the chance to learn,
From my mistakes
Funny how you never learn,
But know them when they,
Come around again,
Oh what do I know,
There's gotta be so much I don't know.
I wanna do great things,
I don't wanna compromise,
I wanna know what life is,
I wanna try everything,
I wanna do great things,
I don't wanna compromise,
I wanna know what love is,
Is it something I do to myself,
Something I do to myself,
Something you do to yourself.
In the year when your bicycle broke
You were crying in the yard
But the world was a glorious game
New adventures stole your heart
It will come, it will go
But you hold on to what you know
You play your part
You play your part
You only full for what you really want to
In the year when the future was lost
You were fighting in the class
Headed west with your wits and your snarl
Left your parents in the past
? 78 was the year you explored
Tore your clothes and shaved your head
Joined a band with a broken down van
Thought your life was really swell
It will come, it will go
But you hold on to what you know
You play your part
You play your part
You only full for what you really want to
You only full for what you really want to
Save it all, save it all
Save it, wipe your tears away
Save it all, save it all
Save it, wipe those tears
It has gone, it has gone
But you hold on to what you know
You play your part
You play your part
You only full for what you really want to
You play your part
You only full for what you really
Full for what you really
In and out of prison
Sitting in a pit of a cell
Lick the blood of the wall
Razor blade love letter hell
So, you left me there
Didn? t care that they? d break down the door
Were you really late
Did you run away, left me to be caught
Where are you now?
Where are you now?
You? re supposed to be a friend of mine
You? re supposed to be a friend of mine, ohh
In and out of trouble
Pushed in a school full of fools
I? m a natural animal
Bent by the rules
You know what I? ve done
It? s in everyone, lurking in the cold
And you taught me all that I? ve ever known
Why let me go?
Where are you now?
Where are you now?
You? re supposed to be a friend of mine
You? re supposed to be a friend of mine, ohh
You're a li-li-life
Save [Incomprehensible] my own
Save [Incomprehensible] my own
Where are you now?
Where are you now?
Where are you now?
Where are you now?
Li-li-life
Today I can't seem to find what I'm searching for,
Oh well maybe tommorrow,
I wait, devious thoughts, but no inspiration at all,
I have shut down.
Generations, lost in the haze of these apathy days,
When everyone falls,
Segregation someone to blame but the problems remain,
When everyone falls.
Somewhere looking for shelter I still can't find myself,
I am alone,
Aware is it my colour or culture who can tell,
Should we be hated for ourselves,
Where should we go.
Generations lost in the haze of these apathy days,
When everyone falls,
Segregation someone to blame, but the problems remain,
When everyone falls.
Are you with me sometime or never,
Are you with me sometime or never,
Or never, never, never,
Don't let me down.
Generations, lost in the haze of these apathy days,
When everyone falls,
Segregation, someone to blame, but the problems remain,
When everyone falls,
Generations, lost in the haze of these apathy days,
When everyone falls.
Today tommorrow sometimes never,
Today tommorrow sometimes never.
Today tommorrow sometimes never,
Today tommorrow sometimes never,
Now the fire has gone away
I face you with a broken pen
And sympathy and gratitude dissolve into disarray
I relied, undisguised, followed all, you'd say
Was your weakness momentary
You're devotion temporary?
It's a question of taste
Like a slap in the face
Let the vain do what they do
Did you laugh at my innocence?
Custom made but gone astray
Erase you with a pencil head
I'm bulletproof now I hide
But somehow I was happy then
Do you know, how lost, how lost, how lost?
Was your weakness, momentary
Your devotion, temporary?
It's a question of taste
Like a slap in the face
It's a question of taste
Let the vain do what they do
Did you laugh at my innocence?
I don't want to live forever
I just want some, oh, oh, oh, oh
I don't want to live forever
What's it all about ah ha ha,
Spent my whole life praying for a chance to be here,
And things are not the same as expected,
It's been a hard time.
Oh to be wrong,
There's no heaven in the sky,
Have you ever,
Well here's your chance and you can't tell me
This is wrong
There's no heaven in the sky
Have you ever, have you ever, have you ever
Cared to scream.
First you steal my breath ha ha ha,
And now I'm short on trust,
I stand up for the test,
And then I lie down.
Oh to be wrong,
There's no heaven in the sky,
Have you ever,
Well here's your chance and you can't tell us,
This is wrong,
There's no heaven in the sky,
Have you ever, have you ever, have you ever
Cared to scream,
Cared to scream.
Let me take you down,
'cos I feel divine,
Like some holy cow,
On a fallen shrine,
Like a waterfall,
Made of alcohol
Oh why, tell me why.
Waiting for a friend ah ha ha,
It's been a long time,
I'm waiting here again,
Such a long time.
Long, long, long,
Long, long, long,
You, oh you bring me down,
You, you kill me,
You kill me,
I think you ought to know,
I think we've lost control dear,
Whatever turned you on,
You put it up your nose dear,
And though the feeling was sublime,
I think we're running out of time,
'Cos when you found it, you'd fix it,
Then lose it and then you'd go.
Will you be long, will you be long dear,
Will you be long, i'm waiting,
No sleep at all, carry me home,
No sleep at all, carry me home,
Won't you take me there.
I serenade the walls,
Young people have it all dear
And surely life is a gas,
We never had it bad dear
Oh was it pointless from the start
Or did we cultivate the arts
I swim in circles, in puddles, in trouble and then I go
Will I be long, will I be long dear,
Will I be strong, you're waiting
No sleep at all, carry me home,
No sleep at all, carry me home,
Won't you take me here,
I don't feel good inside,
I don't feel good inside,
My darling don't you cry, home, home.
No sleep at all, carry me home,
No sleep at all, carry me home,
Won't you, won't you home home, won't you take me there,
I'm ready home, home, won't you take me there,
I'm willing home, home, won't you take me there,
