Islands call out to me
Like the highlands that I always see
In my dreams of home
I am never alone when I am there
Islands like so many dreams
Are like canyons but off the main stream
And there’s no one there
The dreamer is always alone
And the mighty blue ocean
Keeps rolling on every shore
Like the spirit that binds us together
We are so much more than islands
Islands belong to the sea
Like the dark sands of my memory
When the morning comes
They are stepping stones to the sun
And the mighty blue ocean
Keeps rolling on every shore
Like the spirit that binds us together

I don't have to leave anymore
What I have is right here
Spend my nights and days before
Searching the world for what's right here
Underneath and unexplored
Islands and cities I have looked
Here I saw
Something I couldn't over look
I am yours now
So now I don't ever have to leave
I've been found out
So now I'll never explore
See what I've done
That bridge is on fire
Going back to where I've been
I'm froze by desire
No need to leave
Where would I be
IF this were to go under
It's a risk I'd take
I'm froze by desire

Islands, from the first time we saw
We could wait for this moment like rocks on the shore
You can never be closer somehow
For the moment that lasts is this moment, now
When the night’s on fire, oh will you keep the candlelight burning
Hold on to your heart’s desire
When you see one burn into the wind, another one’s turning
The truth can fly much higher
We are islands, but never too far, we are islands
And I need your light tonight and I need your light tonight
We are islands, but never too far, we are islands
And I need your light tonight and I need your light tonight
Islands, never been to before
And we climb so high to where the wild bird soars
There’s a new path that we’ve found just today
I was lost in the forest and you showed me the way
When the night’s on fire, oh will you keep the candlelight burning
Hold on to your heart’s desire
When you see one burn into the wind, another one’s turning
And the truth can fly much higher
We are islands, but never too far, we are islands
And I need your light tonight and I need your light tonight
We are islands, but never too far, we are islands
And I need your light tonight and I need your light tonight
We are islands, but never too far, we are islands
And I need your light tonight and I need your light tonight
We are islands, but never too far, we are islands
And I need your light tonight and I need your light tonight
We are islands, but never too far, we are islands

Islands in the sea are so much like me
They don't ever change, no emotion, no emotion
Islands on the land, dry like desert sand
Islands in the city, all alone it's such a pity
It's masquerade
Just painted faces
When will it change
Islands in the seas, what's come over me
We are both surrounded by the water, empty water
Give me mystery and the fear it brings
Anything at all to break up the monotony
It's masquerade
Just painted faces
When will it change
Never
Islands in the sea are so much like me
But they don't ever change, no emotion, no emotion
Islands on the land, dry like desert sand
Islands in the city, all alone it's such a pity
Islands in the sea
Islands in the sea
Islands in the sea
Islands in the sea
Forever, islands in the sea
Forever, islands in the sea
Forever, islands in the sea

Islands from the first time we saw
we could wait for this moment, like rocks on the shore
we can never be closer somehow
for the moments that lasts, is this moment now
Chorus
When the nights's on fire will you keep the Candlelight Burning
Hold on to your hearts desire
When you see one bird into the wind another one's turning
And the two can fly much higher
We are Islands but never too far, we are Islands
And I need your light tonight, and I need your light tonight,
We are Islands but never too far, we are Islands
And I need your light tonight, and I need your light tonight
Islands never been to before and we climb so high
to where the wild birds soar, there's a new path that
we found just today I was lost in the forest and you
showed me the way

You tell me that you've found a better way
I tell you that it isn't fuckin sane
Everything that I wanted has broke down
They all think that I'm just a fuckin clown
Everybody's telling me I gotta move faster.....
Everybody's telling me I'm a fuckin bastard!
All my dreams were just islands in the sky.
I tell you that the world's a scary place
You tell me we're caught up in the same race
Everybody's worried that they'll never get their share
I get left behind cause I wasn't ever there
They all think I'm mad

I want to rule the islands
And I want to rule the sea
But if you're not coming back
I will sleep eternally
And I want no heavy diamonds
And pearls crush my teeth
I just want my sailor
To sail back to me
Captain has a treasure
He says I hold the key
But old mangroves
And sweet winds blow songs
Of you and me
I want to rule the islands
And I want to rule the sea
But if you're not coming back

We were lying in bed, staring at the moon, and I was wondering if I was supposed to be in love.
But we couldn't quite decide if the moon was full, but I thought, well, tonight it's full enough.
And this morning I was casually trying to sniff my fingers on the way back home.
I could smell you and I felt like a little boy.

You tell me that you¡¯ve found a better way
And I tell you that it isn¡¯t fucking sane
Everything that I wanted has broke down
They all think that I¡¯m just a fucking clown
Everybody¡¯s telling me I gotta move faster¡­
Everybody¡¯s telling me that I¡¯m a fucking bastard!
All my dreams were just islands in the sky (Repeat 4x) Listen | Buy
I tell you that the world¡¯s a scary place
You tell me we¡¯re caught up in the same race
Everybody¡¯s worried that they¡¯ll never get their share
I get left behind ¡®cause I wasn¡¯t ever there
But everybody¡¯s telling me I gotta move faster¡­
Everybody¡¯s telling me that I¡¯m a fucking bastard!
All my dreams were just islands in the sky (Repeat 4x)
They all think I¡¯m mad
Everything I had just broke down¡­
They all think I¡¯m mad
Everything I had just broke down¡­
But everybody¡¯s telling me I gotta move faster¡­
Everybody¡¯s telling me that I¡¯m a fucking bastard!
All my dreams were just islands in the sky (Repeat 4x)

(VERSE 1)
(Off shore) Either sink or swim
(I saw) What kind of boat I’m in
(Much more) Although I can’t forget you
The light is growing dim
(BRIDGE 1)
Feet are falling on foreign ground
Luck in short supply
I feel like Crusoe before him found
All gone pass me by
I walk on beach, I sleep on sand
I walk in water, salty sea got a hold on me
Daylight come, be it now or never
(CHORUS 1)
Lost on some horizon
No man is an island
(No man is an island)
(No man is an island)
(VERSE 2)
(Jackdaw) He don’t bother me
(Wild boar) He keep me company
(Panther) My only consolation
In my calamity
(BRIDGE 2)
Lady Luck or Lady Death
Must pass this shore some day
I hope she’s coming, I ain’t seen her yet
Come to take my soul away
Light my fire on the top of hill
So all the ships can see that I’m a prisoner here
And come before I disappear
(CHORUS 2)
Lost on some horizon
No man is an island
Banished here to prolong my silence
No man is an island
(No man is an island)
(No man is an island)
(No man is an island)
(No man is an island)
MIDDLE VERSE
(No man is an island)
(No man is an island)
(No man is an island)
(No man is an island)
(No man is an island)
(No man is an island)

Islands from the first time we saw
we could wait for this moment, like rocks on the shore
we can never be closer somehow
for the moments that lasts, is this moment now
Chorus
When the nights's on fire will you keep the Candlelight Burning
Hold on to your hearts desire
When you see one bird into the wind another one's turning
And the two can fly much higher
We are Islands but never too far, we are Islands
And I need your light tonight, and I need your light tonight,
We are Islands but never too far, we are Islands
And I need your light tonight, and I need your light tonight
Islands never been to before and we climb so high
to where the wild birds soar, there's a new path that
we found just today I was lost in the forest and you
showed me the way

Love bird, you flew into my window
Now in the sticky love nest sits a widow
The tree it fell on all the people
Gathered there to watch it topple
Now turn around, it's burning down
The city we live in
Should we mumble lies?
Take them by surprise?
Let them have their way with us?
Wounds be by old enemies
Broke my heart to see
Foundations ripped apart
And investments fade away
I guess we got off to a bad start
No oxygen
What is the outcome?
Hungry humans
We've got to enslave them
We'll burn those bridges
When we come to them
I'm not just their leader
I'm also one of them
The food supply has been depleted
The river's ran dry just when it was needed
The rats come out to take it over
Singing, squeaking, "We built this city"
It's hard to breathe
But we couldn't leave
Nowhere left to go
Almost everybody died
Drank the tears from those who cried
We shriveled from the sodium
And a map was found with an X on it
So we followed it there
And what did we find?
An underground design
As we entered in to our surprise
Oxygen
Rivers of playgrounds(?)
The ancients just stayed down
They never stopped moving
We stumbled towards them
But they locked all the barn doors
So we had to dig deeper
We had to dig deeper
And the deep was dark
I wanted to sleep forever
Wake up later, maybe never
We had to build a civilization
Let the planet focus on the planet's rotation
We tried, we tried
We really tried
But no one could do it
Happily(?) alive
Never learned how to survive
We were humans being useless
No oxygen
What is the outcome?
Hungry humans
We've got to enslave them
We'll burn those bridges
When we come to them
I'm not just their leader
I'm also one of them
We’re freed into oblivion
No traces of civilized living eating the earth
We're fading to oblivion

A building fell on me
Crushed my will
And took my brother ooh
How could I have known
The windows would be closed
There was nowhere to leave
There was nowhere to go
The endlessness of lines
Drawn across time
Wrapped my finger to you
But you've gone beyond ooh ooh
I went back to look for you
Sifting through the living room
The living room
Fell into a hopeless nest
Misery tattooed, you
Back in, back in
You're never coming back
No matter what
The endlessness of lines
Broken like twine
Drawn across time
In a pointless line
A building fell on me
Crushed my will
And took by brother

Bones bones brittle little bones
its not the milk you seek
its the sun you need
and the sleek sleek skeleton i hold
where are the hidden folds
wheres the meat that you eat
total boy
tells me stories
sometimes they make me sorry
i need another
i need another
sugar doughnut and muffin baby
this world is going crazy
i think i'm through listening to you
bones bones brittle little bones
its not the milk you see
its just the sun you need
and the sleek sleek skeleton i hold
where are the hidden folds
where is the meat that you eat
gonna make some plans
wait and see
turn it off
turn me on
open your eyes look around you
fuck what you heard
you were lied to
sweetheart
sick body part
sickheart
sweet body part
bones bones brittle little bones
its not the milk you seek
its the sun you need
and the sleek sleek skeleton i hold
where are the hidden folds

Gone away, gone away, I miss you
All the way, will I see you again?
Sitting here, sitting here, the car is outdoors
When you come back, we'll get away
Then the alarm went off
Alarms went off, I heard it
I hope to God I don't hear gunshots
And the windowpane is closed
The way some violence sings pretty
Sirens in the distance closing in
Blending in, the casualty shrieking
Casually I headed for the highway
Sold you out, sold you out
Told them all the things that you'd done
Sold you out, sold you out
Tell me all the things that you had done
You were so devout, you were so committed to me
Then I got away
I was right outside, Going to drive away

Right from the start i was stabbed in the heart
Didn't know i wasn't breathing
Didn't know i had been bleeding
Open my door thought i was alone but
Someone was hiding
In the dark room in my home
Hey (honey?), you will remember some of it
But if you solve it
You will remember all of it
Creeper in my home
Crawled in through the window
I grabbed the kitchen knife
Couldn't stick it in
No, Creeper had his own
Shining in the moonlight
My home was very cold
And something didn't feel right
Right from the start i was stabbed in the heart
Didn't know i wasn't breathing
Didn't know i had been bleeding
open my door thought i was alone but
Someone was hiding
In the dark room in my home
Right from the start i was stabbed in the heart
Didn't know i wasn't breathing
Didn't know i had been bleeding
Open my door thought i was alone but
Someone was hiding
In the dark room in my home
Right from the start i was stabbed in the heart
Didn't know i wasn't breathing
Didn't know i had been bleeding
Open my door thought i was alone but
Someone was hiding

Wandering
Through the cold again
It's been cold outside
And it's getting cold again
Wondering
Why won't you let me in
It's been cold outside
And it's getting cold again
Someone is sleeping
Drowning out all that screaming

I miss my wife
I miss my best friend
Every night
I miss my home
I miss my own bed
And my old life
Ooh x4
I lost my love
It brought me so low
As described above
I lose desire
Into my mood swings
Into the fire
Ooh x4
I can feel my face
I can feel my face
I don't want to know where the feeling goes to some better place
I can feel my face
I can't feel my face
I don't want to know where the feeling goes to some better place
I don't want to know where the feeling goes to some better place
Ooh x4
I miss my wife
I miss my best friend
Every night
I miss my home
I miss my own bed

Passed him by a long time ago
But didn’t stop to pick him up that day even though he
was late
We drove by
A year later my family moved, he moved to the same town
far away
We became friends, smoked cigs, played ball together in
all kinds of weather
We worked on our jump shot
Bucky little wing, you flew away
His name was Charles, he was my friend
We got along, but in the end
Bucky little wing, you flew away
It was tough being weak, while Bucky was strong
His daddy died in a car wreck
And I got sick of being pushed around
Standing my ground when Bucky had my back
Hiding in a bush and it’s okay
We started rolling with a different crew
Before I knew it we drifted to
Bucky little wing you flew away
Once some racist kids, this is what I heard, pushed him
underneath a moving truck
It swerved but got his head on accident
They ran like devils in the night
Word was he died. I didn’t cry but oh, oh how I tried
Monday came and he did too, so he didn’t die
Just some violet bruises and one shut eye
Can’t believe that he survived, he was like a ghost
after that day
But he was just so mighty you might say
His name was Charles, he was my friend
We got along but in the end
Bucky little wing you flew away

Rack of lamb of God
We serve you instead in a bed
That's sweet to sleep forever
In outer space
Track saquatches
Through the snowy climbs of Canada
Are you an upright bear?
Are you even there?
Do you exist?
So sexy
So cold
So british
Try like hell
Explore anew in the carousel
Things don't change
Things don't change
Love everyone
As long as everyone's to blame
Space space space is the place
And the sun is fun fun fun
Severed body won't run
So take your sweet time
Frozen heads up in outer space
In a box
They crash back to earth
Crash back to earth
and they've brought
back with moon rocks
I think I spotted a yeti
Yet I didn't die
I'm not sure
Was it fur?
Was it alive?
They're coming home
But, my how the tundra has grown
Since you've been gone
Everyone's gone
Bye x 60
Rack of lamb of God
We serve you instead outta' bed
That's sweet to sleep forever
It's sweet to sleep forever
Except in outer space
Track saquatches
Through the snowy climbs of Canada
Are you an upright bear?
Are you even there?
Do you exist?

Don't I love you?
Isn't the sky gray?
Isn't the moon blue?
La dah dah dah
And don't I love you?
Until one hundred
Mmm, go unfed
Don't I love you...
And when I turned around
You had gone underground
And when I tried to coax you out
You didn't make a sound
Don't I love you?
Isn't the sky gray?
Isn't the moon blue?
Don't I love you
While my arms surround you

The capillaries of the community
are hemorrhaging on everything
They found your bones in the homes of a thousand little
gnomes
who’ve taken pieces for decoration
They'd opened up their mouths
Seemed like peaceful little mouths inside they found
a mouthful of pieces
But they wanted pieces of you, pieces of you
pieces of you, pieces of you
Somebody died here
I hear it was you
They loved the attention
they got from killing you
The capillaries of the community
are hemorrhaging on everything
The capillaries of the community
their hemorrhaging on everything
They put their fingers in your sockets
if you could hear the way they talk, its madness
uh uh uhhh
and what they got out of your pockets:
a couple coins, a key for lockin', it's sadness in your
face
But they wanted pieces of you, pieces of you
pieces of you, pieces of you
Pieces of you, made from pieces of you
Pieces of you, made from pieces of you
Little birds collapse in your arms
breaking into two
Beat a man to death with their hands
Did they regret anything?
It's a cold cold world
we swam into
It's cold cold water
