Breakdown
Breakdown
I'm gonna leave you baby so far behind
'Cause you're upset and twisted and you're out of your mind
And you know I don't love you and we're wasting our time
Come on give me a reason, help me make up my mind
There are cold days in this winter
But it's not by my design
I'm a victim of your misfortune
In a terminal decline
Breakdown, breakdown, breakdown, breakdown
Breakdown, breakdown, breakdown, breakdown
Breakdown, breakdown, breakdown, breakdown
Breakdown, breakdown, breakdown, breakdown
I'm gonna leave you baby so far behind
'Cause you're fucked up and twisted and you're out of your mind
And you know I don't love you and we're wasting our time
Come on give me a reason, help me make up my mind
Make up my mind
I don't know what lies in the future
I don't know how long it will last
You could lose yourself in the task
My heart is on fire but it's burning low
I can't get much higher, there's no where to go
Breakdown, breakdown, breakdown, breakdown
Breakdown, breakdown, breakdown, breakdown
Breakdown, breakdown, breakdown, breakdown
Breakdown, breakdown, breakdown, breakdown
Breakdown, breakdown, breakdown, breakdown
Breakdown, breakdown, breakdown, breakdown
Breakdown, breakdown, breakdown, breakdown
I'm always late
But I caught you in time
To escape from the scene of the crime
Louder than cymbals
All out or rhyme
I give up 'cos I don't know the time
I can't decide
Won't let you rescue my pride
Tell me the truth
I have a picture of you
You have a picture of me
We could steal away in the night
Or catch the earliest flight
We've fallen in
So let's swim
You're out of my league
But I'm depending on you
You're all that I need
So why don't you say it's true
You're out of my league
Like a picture hung on a wall
Not a word to speak
Lost for a cause
You could give me so many things
But without your love
All of it stinks
My only crime
Is the state of my mind
On loan to you
I've got a picture of you
You have a picture of me
We could steal away in the night
Or catch the very first flight
We've fallen in
So let's swim
You're out of my league
But I'm depending on you
You're all that I need
So why don't you say it's true
You're out of my league
You are the only one I need
And you mean everything to me
I can't get you out of my mind
You've got the face I want to see
(Yours is a)
Your never in when I'm around
(I come round)
When I turn up you turn (tie) me down
If you lie to me I believe you
Yes I have to believe you
Stop if you've got love
Take all your faith and make it good
Bow down surrender
Follow love
And make it yours
For ever more
Why don't you
Stop if you've got love
Don't lose this race it's just too good
I hope it's me you're thinking of
Because I feel the need
You never know what's going on
But you tell me that I am wrong
If it was up to me I would leave you
But it isn't, I believe you
I would do anything I could
Just to make sure you understood
(It seems to me you understood)
That I wouldn't ever deceive you
Though I'd want to, I could not do
Stop if you've got love
Take all your faith and make it good
Bow down surrender
Follow love
And make it yours
For ever more
Why don't you
Stop if you've got love
Don't lose this race it's just too good
I hope it's me you're thinking of
Because I feel the need
Close you lips
We shouldn't speak of this
I'm not the first person to know
It's only me
Out in the cold
Let me feel joy
I really need it
rush in my blood
I want to feel it
And I'm sure
When it's begun
One into two
Always leaves one
Look at the rain
Look at it falling
Into my world
Why are you calling
Won't you come home
I will not hurt you
Will not deserve you
Will not desert you
Look at the rain
Can't you see
you were so indiscreet
Stole all the change off me
How could I know that you would cheat?
Is it what I've done,
I could be, I could become?
I don't need someone else
This is me, beside myself
Look at the rain
Look at it falling
Into my world
Why are you calling
Won't you come home
I will not hurt you
Will not deserve you
Will not desert you
Look at the rain
I've been walking in the rain
Just to get wet on purpose
I've been forcing myself not to forget
Just to feel worse
I've been getting away with it all my life (getting away)
However I look it's clear to see
That I love you more than you love me
However I look it's clear to see
I love you more than you love me
I hate that mirror
It makes me feel so worthless
I'm an original sinner but when I'm with you
I couldn't care less
I've been getting away with it all my life
Getting away with it all my life (Getting away)
However I look it's clear to see
That I love you more than you love me
However I look it's clear to see
That I love you more than you love me
I love you more than you love me
More than you love me
I thought I gave up falling in love
A long long time ago
I guess I like it but I can't tell you
You shouldn't really know
And it's been true all my life
Yes, it's been true all my life
I've been talking to myself
Just to suggest that I'm selfish
(Getting ahead)
I've been trying to impress
That more is less and I'm repressed
(I should do what he said)
However I look it's clear to see
That I love you more than you love me
However I look it's clear to see
That I love you more than you love me
I love you more than you love me
I love you more than you love me
Getting away with it
I've always thought of you as my brick wall
Built like an angel, six feet tall
Six feet tall
And when you go away, I start to weep
You're too expensive girl to keep
Isn't it sweet?
I don't know where to begin, living in sin
How can we talk? Look where you've been
I've counted the nights of living in sin
How can we talk? Look where we've been
Take my independent point of view
I've loosened my wallet, thanks to you
Don't do me any favors Hark, the herald angels sting
Please repair my broken wing
Why won't you look at me? I live and breathe
(We can make it all the time, to live or die)
Blame it on appearance It might seem
A shame that we're Not you or me
It's not the way that you would listen
Or the way you comb your hair
It's the fact that you are missing
How I feel when you're not there
I went through all the months of January
Locked up in this cell
I'd like to be at home, but on my own
I didn't do too well
Look at me, I always get the blame
But I can't even learn to spell my name
I like to read, I like to write
But where I live I learn to fight
So don't you ever say that we're the same
I don't need a doctor telling me I'm full of juice
It's not a statement that I'm making, but the plain and simple truth
I went through all the months of January
Locked up in my cell I'd like to think of home, when I'm alone It doesn't work too
well
you're all that I need
you remind me of me
you come from my soul
you're part of my tree
I don't know what I'm saying
cuz I'm so out of touch
I don't mind if we stay in
cuz I love you so much
They got it all wrong
cuz they don't understand
Just words in this song
and it comes from my head
and I find myself flying
at the edge of the world
we both need each other
like a boy needs a girl
and they got it all wrong
what does it cost to shut your mouth
let's pack our bags and we'll both head south
I'm feeling strange
I've lost my sight
you're out of range
but it's alright
I'm so busy praying
I was down on my knees
I didn't know what I was saying
I just wanted to please
I was thrown out of jail
for behaving to well
I was given my freedom
I was robbed of my reason
They got it all wrong
What does it cost to shut your mouth
let's pack our bags and we'll both head south
I'm feeling strange,
I've lost my sight
you're out of range,
it's early but I'm leaving
a new dawn and a new religion
help me and I will try
lend me the hand of (life?)
show me that I can fly
just stand there by my side
how many words are written
you can read but you don't listen
it's there in front of you
take a look it's quite a view
oh how could I know
reaping the seed that can't be sown
It happens all the time
but not when you're around
why do some people shine
while others search the ground
it's like walking in the snow
it's happening right now
it's got to be somehow
hello stranger you're the reason
that I live and that I keep on breathing
sing me a lullaby
don't let this baby cry
I'm lost inside my mind
fresh water pure will clean me
renew the force within me
just something I must do
Sometimes we find ourselves
Looking for something new
We stand outside ourselves
Not knowing quite what we should do
I am in debt to you
I owe respect to you
But you've got to learn it's gonna turn
Into neglect for you
And though
You caught me naked
I didn't enjoy it
In fact I regret it
Let's make it happen
Why can't you understand
I am a fraction
A part of a broken man?
I hope you understand
It's part of my action plan
To bury you in the sand
The tide's gonna turn
When will you learn
To stop hiding inside yourself?
I bet you wish you were someone else
Tell me, when will you learn?
The day's getting longer
And you're getting common sense
So get right down off that fence
Ain't it time that you turned?
And though
You got me thinking
You could be faking
Your ego's inflated and I'm sick of waiting
Let's make it happen
Why can't you understand
I am a fraction
I am a broken man
Let's make it happen
Why can't you understand
I am a fraction
Part of a broken man?
My soul is in rapture
If only we could both hold on
Let's cause a reaction
I don't know
If we could get lost in a city this size if we wanted to
And I don't know
If I could survive without seeing you
And every time I see your face
I feel out of place
It's so easy, why are you leaving?
Is it just because I've grown afraid of you?
I wish we were at the beginning
It would be so good to be with you
See that girl? She's over there
I don't need her, she don't care
I could be one in a million
You don't want me but I don't care
I'm independent when there's no one there
I'm not a substitute and it's wearing thin
Why can't you see that I won't give in
There's a rumor how can it be true
The way that people talk it's as if they knew
And though I try I hope you understand
If I'm alone with you it could get out of hand
*Please don't make me wait
In front of you
Love comes too late
(We're) In a spin
Confused within
It must be fate
Love comes too late
I believe it was meant to be
But when you threw me out I guess it made me see
It would be a drag from my point of view
That's the kind of thing that I'd expect from you
What can I do I'll never be the same
Another day without would drive me insane
It's a real life drama that I can't work out
Don't think about it let me take you out
(*Repeat 2 times)
It must be fate
Love comes too late
Comes too late
Comes too late
Comes too late
Comes too late
Talking of my attributes, the things I do so well
As anyone who's in cahoots with me will readily tell
I've lived up here, I've been down there, I've bought so I could sell
And if I drove a faster car, I'd drive it bloody well
How can I change? I live without restraint
And I would try the patience of a saint
Thinking of my attitudes, talking one on one
I may disagree with you, but look where you've come from
And all that you've got, I thought that I would faint
But I would try the patience of a saint
And I would try the patience of a saint
I would try the patience of a saint
I'm talking to myself (to myself)
I'm talking to the one that I know best
Bury me with gratitude, you can go to hell
Why should I care? I'd rather watch drying paint
But I would try the patience of a saint
And I would try the patience of a saint
I would try the patience of a saint
And I would try the patience...
It's never too late, I heard you say
How can you turn and go away
I'm staking my claim to some degree
Don't bring the secret home to me
Better to live than to know
Better the noise that we love an' hate
Remember the moments we've loved
Whenever I feel like I'm in a state
There used to be a way but there ain't no more
Tell me why, because we need it
I used to run away but I can't no more
'Cause I feel that I can beat it
There used to be a way but there ain't no more
There used to be a way but there ain't no more
How can we be free?
We both need each other like sister and brother
You mean that much to me
Better to live than to know
Better the noise that we love an' hate
Remember the moments we've loved
Whenever I feel like I'm in a state
There used to be a way but there ain't no more
Tell me why, because we need it
I used to run away but I can't no more
'Cause I feel that I can beat it
There used to be a way but there ain't no more
There used to be a way but there ain't no more
There used to be a way but there ain't no more
Tell me why, because we need it
I used to run away but I can't no more
'Cause I feel that I can beat it
I'm never gonna do what you want me to
It's a perfect situation
I'm trying hard to understand
You make my life a celebration
And then you never let me down
If you want to go
I just can't say no
If you want to go
I just can't say no
You've got me hanging on a string
I find it hard to turn the other cheek
You know it doesn't mean a thing
I could be through with you within a week
It's a perfect situation
I'm trying hard to understand
Is it still infatuation
Between a woman and a man?
There never was a minute on my own
I never felt I needed anyone
It's the perfect situation
I can't hope to understand
If you want to go
I just can't say no
If you want to go
I just can't say no
If you want to go
I just can't say no
If you want to go
I just can't say no
If you want to go
I just can't say no
If you want to go
I just can't say no
If you want to go
Not a trace of emotion remains inside
Two hearts broken lay down by the riverside
Single handed they tried to escape from me
With a turn of the wheel it was drivin' me
Drivin' me crazy, oh baby
You're driving me crazy, oh baby
You're driving me crazy, oh baby
You're driving me crazy, oh baby
This love was born instead of hate
Celebrate our love
(Celebrate)
Let me feel the right vibration
Celebrate our love
(Celebrate)
And until the end of time
Celebrate what's mine
Make it good and let it shine
Celebrate our love
Revelation, a fate that just can't decide
They lay drown in the flow of the rising tide
There's a side of your life that you never see
It is real, this I feel and it's drivin' me
Drivin' me crazy, oh baby
You're driving me crazy, oh baby
You're driving me crazy, oh baby
You're driving me crazy, oh baby
Gotta find, gotta find, some peace within our time
(Until the end of time, until the end of time)
(Celebrate)
Gotta find, gotta find, some peace within our time
(Until the end of time, until the end of time)
(Celebrate)
This love was born instead of hate, celebrate our love
(Gotta find, gotta find, some peace within our time)
(Until the end of time, until the end of time)
(Celebrate)
Let me feel the right vibration, celebrate our love
(Gotta find, gotta find, some peace within our time)
(Until the end of time, until the end of time)
And until the end of time
Celebrate what's mine
Make it good and let it shine
(Gotta find, gotta find, some peace within our time)
Celebrate our love
This love was born instead of hate
Celebrate our love
(Celebrate)
Let me feel the right vibration
Celebrate our love
And until the end of time
Celebrate what's mine
Make it good and let it shine
Early morning with a sigh
She opens both her eyes
Praying for a safe return
Lost in the darkest night
This day the jury has adjourned
Her love has taken flight
She is coming home
To visit me tonight
She is coming home
To visit me tonight
Taken from the arms of another
Woken from the deepest dream
Patiently she waits for her lover
Perhaps her life is not what it seemed
Come to me and see my endeavor
Like a leaf she falls to the ground
In the dust that gathers forever
We are spirits making no sound
She is coming home
To visit me tonight
She is coming home
To visit me tonight
Taken from the arms of another
Woken from the deepest dream
Patiently she waits for her lover
Perhaps her life is not what it seemed
Taken from the arms of another
Woken from the deepest dream
Patiently she waits for her lover
I'm always late but I caught you in time
To escape from the scene of the crime
Louder than cymbals, all out of rhyme
I give up 'cause I don't know the time
I can't decide
Won't you rescue my pride
Tell me the truth
I have a picture of you
You have a picture of me
We could steal away every night
Or catch the earliest flight
We're fallen in, so let's swim
*You're out of my league
But I'm depending on you
You're all that I need
So why don't you say that it's true
You're out of my league
But I'm depending on you
You're all that I need
So why don't you say that it's true
You're out of my league
Like a picture hung on a wall
Not a word to speak, lost for a cause
You could give me so many things
But without your love, all of it stinks
My only crime
Is the state of my mind
Hold on to you
I have a picture of you
You have a picture of me
We could steal away every night
Or catch the very first flight
We're fallen in, so let's swim
Now, my head is spinning
At the back of my mind, I think I'm winning
I was somebody falling for one who was not
Somebody tired of dreaming
Now it's already dawning that this time I've got
Someone who won't leave me feeling...
Disappointed, once more
Disillusioned, encore
I could love you, for sure
So you're not disappointing at all
Disenchanted, once more
Disillusioned, encore
I could love you, for sure
So you're not disappointing at all
Listen, as you call my name
Just one syllable said, then spoken once again
From the sound of your voice, the promise you make
You're somebody I can believe in
Someone who won't leave me feeling...
Disappointed, once more
Disillusioned, encore
I could love you, for sure
So you're not disappointing at all
Disenchanted, once more
Disillusioned, encore
I could love you, for sure
So you're not disappointing at all
At the back of my head, I believe what you said
Dream...
Disappointed, once more
Disillusioned, encore
I could love you, for sure
So you're not disappointing at all
Disenchanted, once more
Disillusioned, encore
I could love you, for sure
So you're not disappointing at all
Have you ever been a victim in a violent fight
When you know it's not true and you know it's not right
Got not one ounce, inch of control
You got lust for blood runnin' in your soul
You know if every person upon this earth
Became the image of the mother in a violent birth
We could sow the seed, toss up the sand
And heal this brutal beat-up land
If there's a place to be why don't you come with me
Listen to your father, listen to your brother
Take every chance that comes, maybe you'll find someone
We don't need to argue, we just need each other
There's a mirror on the table, if you feel you could use it
Don't be ashamed, go ahead just do it
Protect your cranium, let it explode
Put your faith in the mother lode
Now if all this seems to be eccentric
Be aware be sure I meant it
The tunnel of love has got no end
Close your lips
We shouldn't speak of this
I'm not the first person to know
It's only me out in the cold
Let me feel joy, I really need it
Rush in my blood, I want to feel it
And I'm sure when it's begun
One into two, always leaves one
Look at the rain, look at it falling
Into my world, why are you calling?
Won't you come home? I will not hurt you
Will not deserve, will not desert you
Look at the rain
Can't you see?
You were so indiscreet
Stole all the change off me
How could I know that you would cheat?
Is it what I've done
I could be, I could become?
I don't need someone else
This is me, beside myself
Look at the rain, look at it falling
Into my world, why are you calling?
Won't you come home? I will not hurt you
Will not deserve, will not desert you
Look at the rain
Look at the rain, look at it falling
Into my world, why are you calling?
Won't you come home? I will not hurt you
Will not deserve, will not desert you
Look at the rain, look at it falling
Into my world, why are you calling?
Won't you come home? I will not hurt you
Will not deserve, will not desert you
My name is not important, it's a signal, a sign
It means I'm doing what I do because I do it all the time
I get a lot of fun emotion, I get none if I use ya
I would crawl across the ocean so I could not abuse ya
My life's deteriorating at a quarter to eight
Because I wrote myself a letter and I mailed it too late
I got a knock on the door, I got a nail on the floor
I got a nail in my head but it don't hurt me no more
It's an open act of defiance
And it's aimed direct with you
We could form some kind of alliance
We could do what we wanted to do
And the young would live forever
And the sun would shine through the blue
If we got our hands on this nation
We could do what we wanted to do
With all the time I'm sweatin' I've got you on my mind
You're gonna lead me into trouble, you will leave me behind
Well, I am not coming to ya, I'll only confuse ya
There's a label on you, I'm gonna rip it in two
It's an open act of defiance
And it's aimed direct with you
We could form some kind of alliance
We could do what we wanted to do
And the young would live forever
And the sun would shine through the blue
If we got our hands on this nation
We could do what we wanted to do
It's an open act of defiance
And it's aimed direct with you
We could form some kind of alliance
We could do what we wanted to do
And the young would live forever
And the sun would shine through the blue
If we got our hands on this nation
Inside my imagination
There is an imitation of life
You captured me for an instant
Still in your camera and in your life
The head of a hungry pack of hounds
Will track me down
Say it's not over
Let's say a prayer
Let's turn it over
Show that we care.
Walk in the desert
Lie in the shade
We'll be together
Don't be afraid.
Say it's not over.
I'll move to the other side of town
I'll lead you to the underground
We'll live within our hollow space
We're in a dream we both embrace
And if tomorrow is undone
You'll never hear me
Say it's not over
Let's say a prayer
Let's turn it over
Show that we care.
Walk in the desert
Lie in the shade
We'll be together
Don't be afraid.
Say it's not over.
Say it's not over.
Say it's not over.
Say it's not over.
Inside my imagination
There is an imitation of life
You captured me for an instant
Still in your camera and in your life
The head of a hungry pack of hounds
We're in danger so I'm told
It's the end of time and the world is old
You meet a stranger you don't want to see
Dance to the sound of his pen makin' history
*You know that
One day and it won't be long
We'll stand in this place
Undercover
Licensed to be wrong
One day and it won't be long
We'll stand in this place
And discover
**I'm not ashamed to tell you
But you know its over
Naked is the beauty
Cryin' on my shoulder
Starts to face rejection
What used to be affection
I thought it was my duty
Like I was a soldier
I'd like to pay you but my funds are thin
I'm so in love with my shirt but I'll throw it in
Why can't you understand what I am going through
It's a bad situation what can I do
(*Repeat)
(**Repeat)
Like I was a soldier (Repeat)
Is it any wonder how the world spins it's lonely days for me, like a record with it's bruises skips a beat of history. In between the grooves is where I lie, wondering where this lover hides.
To the girl with the marble eyes, can it be that you've taken me by surprise? The wind and rain have carried your fame to my front door in spite of my heart's refrain. Capulet and Montegue, never even heard of me and you. I'll keep this secret of how I adore, this passion girl that I was looking for.
Somehow here we are standing in the rain again. If we could only run away, take this train to better days.
To the girl with the marble eyes, can it be that you've taken me by surprise? The wind and rain have carried your fame to my front door in spite of my heart's refrain. Capulet and Montegue, never even heard of me and you. I'll keep this secret of how I adore, this passion girl that I was looking for.
Can I feel that it's all around, in your eyes there lies this perfect sound.
Uhhmmm . . . . I digress.
I don't plan or conspire
I don't want to get no higher
It's your lack of ambition
Well, they tell me that's what it's missing
All the guns out on the western front
Are quiet now
Well, it's nice to hear the world
Breath a sigh
CHORUS
It's like the colour of your skin
You know, it doesn't mean a thing
Nor do the clothes that we're wrapped in
It doesn't matter if you're thin
And though I lay awake at night
I know your arms will hold me tight
And I thank God we got it right
Here in this city late at night
We are each like no other
We are unique to our mother
We are foals in the stable
But we leave home when we're able
But we all need someone
Like the Earth needs the Sun
And our fate will be found
In this life in the ground
Don't you get it wrong
CHORUS
What you need
Love is satisfaction
Is so unreal
I like the feel
But it goes away
It comes too soon
Life is satisfaction
Me and you
We could be in harmony
Love is satisfaction
There is a place
If we must believe
When people go wrong
Our children will see
The color of us
And what we've become
You think we are first
We're second to none
We're second to none
Why does it take
An eternity
Five seconds late
And I could be free
It's what you need (love is satisfaction)
Me and you (love is satisfaction)
It comes too soon (love is satisfaction)
For me and you
There is a place
If we must believe
When people go wrong
Our children will see
The color of us
And what we've become
You think we are first
We're second to none
You are the only one I need
And you mean everything to me
I can't get you out of my mind
You've got the face I want to see
You're never in when I'm around
When I turn up you turn me down
If you lie to me I believe you
Yes I have to I will leave you
*Stop if you've got love
Take all your faith and make it good
Bow down, surrender, follow love
And make it yours forever more
Why don't you stop if you've got love
Don't lose this grace its just too good
I hope its me you're thinking of
Because I feel the need
You never know what's going on
But you tell me that I am wrong
If it was up to me I would leave you
But it isn't. I believe you
I would do anything I could
Just to make sure you understood
But I wouldn't ever decieve you
Though I'd want to, I could not to
(*Repeat)
La la la la (Repeat)
Stop if you've got love (Repeat)
Please, let me in cause my house is falling down
There's trouble all over the town
Let me begin and I'll tell you a story how
Dracula hunted me down
Show me that you care
And of my presence you are aware
We don't need to shout
Or make a fuss, we are devout
CHORUS
Well, I'd like to make a call to my kid a (hoo, hoo)
And I'd show him all the things that I did (hoo, hoo)
Well, I'd show him all the things that I did
Show him all the things that I did
Some people always come late
Others arrive in a dreadful state
I didn't get there at all
The gun's in the holster and it's too small
Who's that outside my door?
The house is falling in, it's world war again
Who's that outside my door?
Who's that outside my door?
CHORUS
Well, I'd like to make a call to my kid a (hoo, hoo)
(Hoo, hoo)
(Hoo, hoo)
(Hoo, hoo)
(Hoo, hoo)
(Hoo, hoo)
You're voice is breaking up, get off the phone, come and see me
These times are hard enough to be alone, I want you with me
And much to my regret, it's you I can't forget, tears on your shoulder
Don't look too far, surrender me my heart then come with me
Will we still be together in a year from now
Or do we hate each other, we're gonna get through somehow
Has it turned the world into a nightmare
Will it be farewell, only time can tell
Will we still be together in a year from now
Or do we hate each other, we're gonna get through somehow
Has it turned the world into a nightmare
Will it be farewell, only time can tell
You'd make the angels wait and stop the sun, if I let you
What good is two when it's reduced by one, how will you value your love
You'd better save your breath, give us both a rest until tomorrow
This second you want me, you know I'll come, you are the one
Will we still be together in a year from now
Or do we hate each other, we're gonna get through somehow
Has it turned the world into a nightmare
Will it be farewell, only time can tell
Will we still be together in a year from now
Or do we hate each other, we're gonna get through somehow
Has it turned the world into a nightmare
Will it be farewell, only time can tell
Will we still be together in a year from now
Or do we hate each other, we're gonna get through somehow
Has it turned the world into a nightmare
I can feel the undertow
Of a force that I don't know
Reaching deep into the night
It just makes me feel alright
And sometimes when I'm alone
When I need to speak to you
I call you up when you're at home
To exchange a point of view
It just makes me feel alright
It just makes me feel alright
It just makes me feel alright
It just makes me feel alright
The things I see I can't describe
A blind emotion I can't hide
Are you aware of my existence
Do you view me with indifference
I'm walking 'round within a circle
I'm falling down before the hurdle
At the end of every season
The wrong place without a reason
In the strangest kind of way
I don't want to let you down
But I hear it every day
I'm the angry man in town
And I don't know what to do
No, I don't know what to do
If it's love that makes you ill
I can take that bitter pill
And it makes me feel alright
And it makes me feel alright
It just makes me feel alright
It just makes me feel alright
The things I see I can't describe
A blind emotion I can't hide
Are you aware of my existence
Do you view me with indifference
I'm walking 'round within a circle
I'm falling down before the hurdle
At the end of every season
The wrong place without a reason
Come down from your throne
Leave your body alone
Somebody must change
You are the reason I've been waiting
For so long
Somebody holds the key
CHORUS
Well, I'm near the end
And I just ain't got no time
And I'm wasted and I
Can't find my way home
Come down on your own
And leave your body alone
Somebody must change
You are the reason
That I've been waiting so long
Somebody holds the key
CHORUS
(Home, home)
Can't find my way home
(Home, home)
Can't find my way home
Can't find my way home
CHORUS
Can't find my way home
Can't find my way home
Can't find my way home
Can we meet on the street maybe tomorrow
See the world at our feet, naked and hollow
I'll even climb crystal and fine for you to see
With every step that I take, every move that you make
Stay with me in this foreign land
Just long enough for me to make you understand
You could be my guiding light, the darkest of them all
You'd be the rise before my fall
And yet we'd both get along fine
Better than most some of the time
When I'm with you, I am on fire
You are the chill and my desire
Can we meet on the street maybe tomorrow
See the world at our feet, naked and hollow
I'll even climb, crystal and fine for you to see
With every step that I take, every move that you make
What do you crave what I can't possess?
You always ask for more until there's nothing left
These hollow words make a wrong arrest
They beat upon my door, a spirit haunts forever more
But still I hope and sometimes I pray
It won't be hard, we'll find a way
Color my dream, show me I'm real
Turn on the light, then let me feel
Can we meet on the street maybe tomorrow
See the world at our feet, naked and hollow
I'll even climb, crystal and fine for you to see
With every step that I take, every move that you make
Can we meet on the street maybe tomorrow
See the world at our feet, naked and hollow
I'll even climb crystal and fine for you to see
I used to think that I was lonely
When I was a young boy
Doing what they told me
Too many lessons in the school class
Stated my allegiance
Mixing with the wrong class
I lived at home with all my family
Even had my own key
It was given to me I like to be alone
There was never any friction
Starring in my own film
It was my addiction
You don't have to wait
The world will carry on
They stare in your face
But it won't stay for long
Blessed be our nation
And sit upon her throne
Don't ever hesitate
Just carry on
You don't have to wait
The world will carry on
They stare in your face
But it won't stay for long
Blessed be our nation
And sit upon her throne
Don't ever hesitate
Just carry on
Your older boys were rather surly
Livin' in the wrong place
Made me grow up early
But it was my home
As I complete my own existence
Staring at my own life
Fading in the distance
Down I stand in time
Smiling faces of the neighbors
Proud of their endeavors
Gonna play forever
Watch TV at home
You don't have to wait
The world will carry on
They stare in your face
But it won't stay for long
Blessed be our nation
And sit upon her throne
Don't ever hesitate
Just carry on
You don't have to wait
The world will carry on
They stare in your face
But it won't stay for long
Blessed be our nation
And sit upon our throne
Don't ever hesitate
Don't get it wrong
Don't ever wait
Don't hesitate
Don't ever wait, ever wait
Ever wait, ever wait
Don't hesitate
Hesitate, hesitate
You don't have to wait
The world will carry on
They stare in your face
But it won't stay for long
Blessed be our nation
And sit upon our throne
Don't ever hesitate
Don't get it wrong
You don't have to wait
The world will carry on
They stare in your face
But it won't stay for long
Blessed be our nation
And sit upon our throne
Don't ever hesitate
Don't get it wrong
Don't wait just carry on
Don't wait we'll get along
Blessed be our nation
And sit upon our throne
Don't ever hesitate
Just carry on
Na na na
Na na na
Na na na
I'm shaking like a leaf on a tree
Do you understand? Will you come with me?
Don't make a sound, don't even breathe
They'll understand, why don't we leave?
We can steal a ride on a bus
Drive down a road, all covered in dust
Head north by north west, till we reach the coast
We'll find an address that don't get the post
When she's gone
Even though she won't be long
It just tears my world apart
Puts a hole right through my heart
She let me see her new tattoo
It was my name, written in blue
A mark of pain across her chest
I was the lover on her breast
So come with me and don't be afraid
We could be free out of the shade
Your life has begun, come on, let's run over the ground
In an air raid, we've got the gun, don't be afraid
When she's gone
Even though she won't be long
It just tears my world apart
Puts a hole right through my heart
Only when this girl has gone
Will I know if I am wrong
Who would choose a life of one
I can't carry on when she's gone
When she's gone
Even though she won't be long
It just tears my world apart
Puts a hole right through my heart
Only when this girl has gone
Will I know if I am wrong
Who would choose a life of one
I can't carry on when she's gone
When she's gone
Even though she won't be long
It just tears my world apart
Puts a hole right through my heart
Fate just took a wrong turn
It would appear that we don't agree
And without warning sign I stopped just in time
When you ran straight in front of me
Well I don't listen to the rumors
And I don't care who you have for tea
I think you'll find that the thief commits the crime
At the end of the book you'll see
You tore me right down, you've got a hold on me
I can't believe it's true but I believe in me
It's been so long, it's been so long
Don't ever talk to strangers
You never know what they're gonna say
And it may be a surprise right in front of your eyes
They get up and they walk away
So the next time you see me listen
'Cos I've got something I want to say
You've got the wrong attitude and you act like a fool
And you will pass by within a day
You tore me right down, you've got a hold on me
I can't believe it's true but I believe in me
You tore me right down, you've got a hold on me
I can't believe it's true, it's just the end of time
You tore me right down, you've got a hold on me
I can't believe it's true but I believe in me
You tore me right down, you've got a hold on me
I can't believe it's true but I believe in me
It's been so long, it's been so long
It's been so long, it's been so long
My imagination wants to see
The vivid colors of reality
There's a place out there beyond my grasp
A revolution in a looking glass
I've got to get this problem off my chest
I'm sick and tired of bein' second best
I rearranged my credibility
A fund raiser for a restless sea
Don't ever doubt me
What's come over you?
Won't you forgive me?
What are you gonna do?
Don't ever doubt me
What's come over you?
Won't you forgive me?
What are you gonna do?
What will you do?
I can't contain what's in my head
I'm losing words that I must have read
Do you remember the time we spent?
It seems that we were the main event
Have you a reason to behave like this?
Maybe you need a psychoanalyst
If you keep pushing me out of the door
For sure, you'll never see me again
No one to talk to
What am I gonna do ?
You're never there
Right when I need you
Give me a cause
Give me a reason
For your applause
I'll commit treason
And in my mind I know I'm right
It's the same thing every night
You're not to blame so don't you cry
You don't need me so hurt my pride
In all that time, I know we tried
Line by line and side by side
And still I pray that we'll get by
But it don't seem real and I don't know why?
And in my mind I know I'm right
It's the same thing every night
You're not to blame so don't you cry
You don't need me so hurt my pride
And in my mind I know I'm right
It's the same thing every night
Why do you cry, you're not to blame?
When will you change this sad refrain?
Sad refrain
Oh, when will you change
This sad refrain
When will you change
You must think that I'm a fool
This twisted tenderness just leaves me cool
You've got me in a mess, you know it's true
Out in the wilderness here without you
Right outside, it's a cruel world
Something's happenin', it's distractin'
You're just bad news girl
Never let that feeling die
All you've got to do
Is tell a little lie
(Tell a little lie)
(Tell a little lie)
Don't you know it's true?
I will never let you down
Spread this message all around
That I hope and that I pray
You can turn my life around
Take a look out there
We're under house arrest and you don't care
We could always be friends
But you were careless right till the end
I feel guilty, oh it's such a shame
It's frustratin', it's a sad thin'
And there's no one else to blame
Never let that feeling die
All you've got to do
Is tell a little lie
(Tell a little lie)
(Tell a little lie)
Don't you know it's true?
I won't ever let you down
Spread this message all around
That I hope and that I pray
You won't take my love to town
Tell a little lie, tell a little lie
That's all you have to do
Is tell a little lie
(Tell a little lie)
(Tell a little lie)
Don't you know it's true?
Right outside it's a cruel world
Something's happenin', it's distractin'
You're just bad news girl
Never let that feeling die
All you've got to do
Is tell a little lie
(Tell a little lie)
(Tell a little lie)
Don't you know it's true?
I won't ever let you down
Spread this message all around
That I hope and that I pray
You won't take my love to town
Tell a little lie, tell a little lie
That's all you have to do
Is tell a little lie
(Tell a little lie)
(Tell a little lie)
Don't you know it's true?
Don't you know it's true?
(Don't you know it's true?)
Hey don't you know it's true?
(Don't you know it's true?)
Don't you know it's true?
(Don't you know it's true?)
Hey don't you know it's true?
(Don't you know it's true?)
Don't you know it's true?
Don't you know it's true?
Don't you know it's true?
You keep calling but I'm not at home' to give me your explanation
I'm not waiting on the telephone with a feeling of frustration
I always thought that if you understood
You'd clean up this mess and you'd do me some good
I don't need you anymore, I'm not the man you're looking for
I don't need you anymore, I'm not the man you're looking for
Can't you see there's nothing in your head and your body's on vacation
I keep hearing what I never said, you got me in your conversation
Now it's too late and you get what you see
I don't like this hatred, it just isn't me
I don't need you anymore, I'm not the man you're looking for
I don't need you anymore, I'm not the man you're looking for
I don't need you anymore, I'm not the man you're looking for
I don't need you anymore, I'm not the man you're looking for
I don't need you anymore, I'm not the man you're looking for
I don't need you anymore, I'm not the man you're looking for
I don't need you anymore, I'm not the man you're looking for
You may be a star in your own mind
But you're greatly deluded in my mine
I heard reports that you drink
And you take drugs most of the time
And that your life is in danger
And that you were involved in a crime
Is it over?
Is it over?
Will you come home now?
Is it over?
Is it over?
Don't you let me down
You're the architect of your own excess
Join the queue at the start of line
In a wilderness with an empty sky
The clouds are gone and the dessert is dry
The prodigal son is returning
He shouldn't be walking the streets
They tell me that children are starving
He's got everything that he needs
Is it over?
Is it over?
Will you come home now?
Is it over?
Is it over?
Is it over now?
Won't you come home now?
Won't you come home now?
Won't you come home now?
Won't you come?
Won't you come home?
Won't you come home now?
Won't you come home now?
Won't you come home now?
Won't you come?
Won't you come home?
Won't you come home now?
Won't you come home now?
Won't you come home now?
Won't you come?
An ordinary man was not much in demand
He lives a quiet life, his wife don't understand
But underneath it all, this is suburban hell
He's up against the wall, you know, he's obviously unwell
She didn't like the things he did
He said that he couldn't live without her
He made her cry just like a kid
I think this player needs a transfer
It's a fragile situation, will he lose his head
Or make a change in his location and just go back to bed
I'll catch you when you fall and if you stumble, call
This driving rain has got to end
Just call me when you need a friend
Your life is down and out, the flame is burning out
And when you're down it makes me suffer
You're a girl just like no other
Sometimes he feels so small, he turns to alcohol
She doesn't like the taste, but then it's better than his face
This connection will not mend, how I pray that you'll be happy
But you're in a downward trend, leave this place and make it snappy
Just undo this combination, you know it is upto you
It's time you saved your reputation, I think it's overdue
People throwing lives around, don't you think it's sad
While half the world is getting on, the other's getting mad
Oh, people taking lives away, don't you think it's sad
While the world is having fun, the other half is bad
I'll catch you when you fall and if you stumble, call
This driving rain has got to end
Just call me when you need a friend
Your life is down and out, the flame is burning out
And when you're down, it makes me suffer
Satisfy your every wish
I can be a part of this
You'll never forgive me
But what do I care
I'd like to stay but it can't be
It's kind of juvenile of me
There's something I'm missing
Why can't we agree
I heard this sound for a thousand years
Such a sad song it goes forever on
I heard this sound for a thousand years
Such a sad song, it goes forever on
I know I tried to change my mind
So much of you I can't define
Whenever you're near me
Whatever you do
I fall apart if you're not there
I couldn't leave I wouldn't dare
You're always within me
Whatever you do
I heard this sound for a thousand years
Such a sad song it goes forever on
I heard this sound for a thousand years
Such a sad song, it goes forever on
I lied to you it was a sin
So please forgive me once again
I'll never betray you
As long as you're there
I heard this sound for a thousand years
Such a sad song it goes forever on
I heard this sound for a thousand years
Let's sit up down
I'm here alone all by myself with no one else
I need someone to share these thoughts about myself
I don't know who I can trust
(Trust)
(Oh yeah)
This picture's starting to rust
And as I press upon myself a form of torture
I write these words for someone else just like an author
I don't know who I can trust
(Trust)
I don't know who I can trust
Everybody, won't you come with me?
We'll take a ride across the sea
When we get there if we don't drown
I'll turn your whole life upside down
(Upside down)
And later on with each illegal breath I take
I lose resistance for an instant to my fate
How I'll miss you when you are gone!
Oh yeah
I'm a number lower than one
I'm on my own, I think this stuff is getting stronger
I'm wide awake and I can't take it any longer
How I'll miss you when you are gone!
I'm a number lower than one
Everybody, won't you come with me?
Help me find what I can't see
I'm sick of crawling along a ground
Help me turn my world around
Everybody, won't you come with me?
Everybody come with me
If I don't find what I've come for
You won't see me anymore
Sometimes it's hard just to find some piece of mind
It feels like I am going crazy almost all other time
And if we can't live this way then what will I do?
Like my father and my mother, I'm depending on you
You've got to fight just to keep your piece of mind
You've got to hold on tight, don't cross that line
Sometimes I cry like a baby when I look outside
I'm on a losing streak, driving through moss side
Like a river deep or the ocean wide
Like a river deep or the ocean wide
Like a river deep or the ocean wide
There's a crack in a wall but I just can't hide
(Can't hide, can't hide, can't hide, can't hide)
Can't hide, can't hide, can't hide, can't hide
Can't hide, can't hide, can't hide, can't hide
Can't hide, can't hide, can't hide, can't hide
Can't hide, can't hide, can't hide, can't hide
There's not a hope
While you're in this kind of mood
Too much to drink
But not enough to lose
You tore me apart
Now I've got to suffer
I wish I'd been around
When you started this
Give me a chance
I'd show you what I could do
You're in a trance
And I'm not so fond of you
You may be a friend
But not my relation
But you're the only person
I ever knew
And it's too late to wash my hands
We're caught in a trap set for a man
There is a wind
That blows in the northern sky
Holdin? me back
No matter how hard I try
If I had the sense
I'd leave here tomorrow
I wouldn't even bother
To say goodbye
But it's too late to wash my hands
We're caught in a trap set for a man
Would you lie to me?
You thought I was wrong
You deserted me
When it all went wrong
Would you lie to me?
Would you lie to me?
Would you lie to me?
You thought I was wrong
You deserted me
When it all went wrong?
And it's too late to wash my hands
We're caught in a trap set for a man
But it's too late to wash my hands
(Would you lie to me?)
We're caught in a trap set for a man
(Would you lie to me?)
We're caught in a trap set for a man
Every time I watch TV on the news is something major
I'm a prisoner, set me free turn this atoll into vapour
Genocide put on the side it's always new
Politicians want to share their point of view
United Nations are demanding
Foreign troops have made a landing
City dealers at an auction shares are falling fast
Suicide is not an option waiting for the crash
I walk this wild road can you tell me
Will I reach the end
This endless night goes on
But I still can't find my way home
Misguided youth are mixing juice with alcohol
Desert states are praying for the rains to fall
Peace in Ireland is an issue
Goodbye bombs we're gonna miss you
The southern ice has almost gone
The silly fools just carry on
I walk this wild road can you tell me will I reach the end
This endless night goes on but I still can't find my way home
I walk this wild road can you tell me will I reach the end
This endless night goes on but still I carry on
This world's out of reach but I don't want it
The people are creeps that live here on it
It's always the same it's not gonna change
When we go to school with Saddam Hussein
I'd cry all night if I could change it
Ask Jesus Christ could He arrange it?
Is there anyone out there who cares?
If a child can run free
When u passed me, passed me by, by
You let, let out a spark fly
Sent voltage through my veins, veins
A feel-good type of pain, pain
You sent shocks straight to my heart
My motion sensor, sensor alarm goes off
Each, each time, each time you pass
I'll light. light up so fast, light up so fast fast
You're my elec-, electronic love
Zap, zap me up with your love device
Hit me like a supersonic sub
With your, with your electronic eyes
Currents moving up and down,
Send, send me spinning round and round
Like wheels turning round the clock
Can't sleep, I can't make this stop, stop
You, you got me on a switch
You, you turn me, on, you turn me on
My circuit breakers smoking overload
Call, call 911, call, call 911 911
You're my elec-, electronic love
Zap, zap me up with your love device
Hit me like a supersonic sub
With your, with your electronic eyes
I'm wired with your elec- electronic love
Gimme the gin, hold the tonic, I'm drunk
With your elec- electronic love,
Elec-elec-electronic
Hit me like you're supersonic
You're my, you're my elec-, electronic love
Zap, zap me up with your love device
Hit, hit me like a supersonic sub
With your, with your electronic eyes
You're my, you're my elec-, electronic love
Zap, zap me up with your love device
Hit, hit me like a supersonic sub
With your, with your electronic eyes
Electronic supersonic
Call, call 911, call, call 911
