Save me from drowning in the sea
Beat me up on the beach
What a lovely holiday
There's nothing funny left to say
This sombre song would drain the sun
But it won't shine until it's sung
No water running in the stream
The saddest place we've ever been
Everything I touched was golden
Everything I loved got broken
On the road to Mandalay
Every mistake I've ever made
Has been rehashed and then replayed
As I got lost along the way
There's nothing left for you to give
The truth is all that you're left with
Twenty paces then at dawn
We will die and be reborn
I like to sleep beneath the trees
Have the universe at one with me
Look down the barrel of a gun
And feel the Moon replace the Sun
Everything we've ever stolen
Has been lost returned or broken
No more dragons left to slay
Every mistake I've ever made
Has been rehashed and then replayed
As I got lost along the way
Save me from drowning in the sea
Beat me up on the beach
What a lovely holiday
There's nothing funny left to say.
I traced the footsteps through the multi-colored avenues
That wind their way down to the sea
I see the birds that fly beneath the darkened sky
They are the messengers of dreams
Mandalay, now I know what you try to be
Mandalay, now I wish you were here with me
Pages filled with science fiction
Without fear of contradiction
Walking through the fields of evergreen I see a turn and walk away
And from the east there comes a breeze that flows up high into the blue
Mandalay, now I know what you try to be
Mandalay, now I wish you were here with me
The sound of retribution
In total disillusion, Mandalay
Mandalay, now I know what you try to be
Mandalay, now I wish you were here with me
Amidst the confusion
The only conclusion
Mandalay of the misty eyes
Have gazed into the coming door
The leaves that turn to gold and brown
I've watched them falling to the ground
Mandalay, now I know what you try to be
See love
She knows
Will leave her
See how it leaves her
Her love
Her love won't heal
She warned you
See how it feels now
She won't take up too much room
'till you're sure
She loves you
I won't give up on your truth
'till you're sure she loves you
She knows no truth
Or reason
See how it leaves her
It's too late to prove
Your heart lies
Her love is deeper
She won't take up too much room
'till you're sure
She loves you
I won't give up on your truth
'till you're sure she loves you
Any time you
Find me out
So many good reasons
Haven't I said enough
She knows no truth
Or reason
See how it leaves her
She won't take up too much room
'till you're sure
She loves you
I won't give up on your truth
When when I met you
Evidently
You knew
And then if your kiss
I was full
Evidently
Since without you
Unfolding
This time last year, you were here
This time last year, you were here
This time last year, you were here
Said I miss you
I cannot choose
Tell me you should often do something
Without you here i'm into
Cut out in two
Since without you
Unfolding
This time last year, you were here
This time last year, you were here
This time last year, you were here
In all my innocence
I'm running 'round
In circles you won't allow
Against your bittersweet indifference
I'm running 'round
This time last year, you were here
This time last year, you were here
If truth could speak
I need another
I swear it's due
I need another
When I
Get scared
When I recover
I'm sure that there
Can be another
And your life is chained
Close to another
Her shell is deep
Inlaid with trouble
A life for less
A new removal
You shed your skin
And love another
And your back isn't sore anymore
And your feet touch the ground
As you step from the wall
And you gave all you could
Given all that you saw
But dappled with love
Can you see who you are
A lot gets said
You lose another
You shed a load
And gain another
You're back in deep
You know it's over
You find yourself
And love another
And your back isn't sore anymore
And your feet touch the ground
As you step from the wall
And you gave all you could
Given all that you saw
But dappled with love
Can you see who you are
Still looking for more
Must you love another
Must you lie
Must you judge
Must you take another
On you go in the dark
One day you'll discover
That you can't understand
How to love another
Dappled with love love love
Can you see who you are
You know
You know
There's still a sense i
Have you've stolen these days
All your love is here
If love is given in to
Hope you're fooling yourself
It's as if you knew knew knew all along
It's enough now
It's your loss now
It's just that I'm low
It's enough now
It's your loss now
It's just I don't know
You know
You steal the sunlight
How you steal your own scene still
Oh no no you're reasonable
If hope is given in to
How we need to be now
It's as if you knew
You knew all along
It's enough now
It's your loss now
It's just that I'm low
It's enough now
It's your loss now
It's just I don't know
I pulled a loose thread
I gathered you in
Discovered I could
A pivot for your sun
You invited me in
As if it's nothing
We tread on old ground
As if it's nothing now
It's like I hardly see the sky some days
It's like you hardly said a word
It's like I hardly see the sky some days
And I'd do better if I turned my head
Knowing you did
I wouldn't be here
If you could have said no
I wouldn't have come here
If ever I had known
It's like I hardly see the sky some days
It's like you hardly said a word
It's like I hardly see the sky some days
And I'd do better if I turned my head
Knowing you did
Knowing you called
Knowing you held her
Knowing you kissed
Knowing you did all this
It's like I hardly see the sky some days
It's like you hardly said a word
It's like I hardly see the sky some days
And I'd do better if I turned my head
Sometimes
The reflection I see
Bears no
Ressemblance to me
Sometimes
I look around the place I live
And wonder
How I came to choose the things I did
In the morning
He smiles
At the start of another day
He smiles
Kisses my shoulder
Cradles his body
Behind mine
Shin to toe to tigh to mind X5
Sometimes
I wake and know the time will come
The day unfolds
Someday
That everything will resonate
Flowers bloom
In desolate places
In the morning
He smiles
At the start of another day
He smiles
Kisses my shoulder
Cradles his body
Behind mine
Shin to toe to thigh to mind X4
Shin to toe to thigh to mind to mine
Sometimes it seems
All the birds are flying south
While I am grounded
One day I'll wake
And everything will resonate
Flowers bloom
In desolate places
In the morning
He smiles
At the start of another day
He smiles
Kisses my shoulder
Cradles his body
Behind mine
Shin to toe to thigh to mind X4
Come
Like a baby to the breast
Every inch of you to test my skin
Deepen cracks and pour in more
Still standing at the door in tears
And I feel and do you feel
Enough love
Or do you feel, or do you feel
Enough love is too rare
Still
Leaving me untied in hands
That you tied and locked away alive
Here
I can't stand another scene
Can't face another day in here
And I feel and do you feel
Enough love
Or do you feel, or do you feel
Enough love is too rare
Do I feel, do you feel
Enough love
Or do you feel, or do you feel
Enough love is too rare
You could weather me if I turned to stone
If I turned to stone something like a statue
You could keep me hidden in your garden
Then no-one need ever know
And I feel and do you feel
Enough love
Or do you feel, or do you feel
Enough love is too rare
Do I feel, do you feel
Enough love
Or do you feel, or do you feel
I counted down
Just like you did before you said
It's too short how long I said
Is too short
Who's to blame
I contemplate if it's true
I'm born to remain star-crossed seems
He couldn't be respectable
Discreet
And if I found
What she said was true
What she said about you
What she said trust you
I should have known
When you said that you'd choose me
All that I want
Is to see some truth reflected
And to learn somehow
And to be strong somehow
In the state of mind
I'm in
And if I found
What she said was true
What she said about you
What she said trust you
I should have known
When you said that you'd choose me
Seperate stay strong
Seperate be bold
Seperate be brave
Seperate you'll grow
Seperate be brave
Seperate stay
And if I found
What she said was true
What she said about you
What she said trust you
I should have known
Three, four, three, four ...
I want you now as then
Don't tell me you want to stay
Too much time now has passed
Too too soon nothing to do
I was only thinking I would right
Now and then i need a little sting
I was only trying not to second guess
Why you came but
Since I left you
I'm chasing opposites
Things that you do
Pay on my mind till I sets hard i can't
I can't see when you go
I can't see when you go
Silence away, silence with things
No reason why should stay
When you know what to say
To talk me
Talk is cheap
That look of yours
Too too cold
Now the cold
Could you feel ( could you feel )
So ravage and misunderstood
Everything cha, cha, changed
Nothing remains
So consider now
When it was easy
Knowing what you do and what you gave
I was sealing knowing what was to be
My mistake but
Since I left you
I'm chasing opposites
Things that you do
Pay on my mind till I sets hard i can't
I can't see when you go
I can't see when you go
Silence away, silence with things
No reason why should stay
When you know what to say
To talk me
That you will never see X6
That will never step on me
A sense of, since i left you
Since I left you
I'm chasing opposites
Things that you do
Pay on my mind till I sets hard i can't
I can't see when you go
I can't see when you go
Silence away, silence with things
No reason why should stay
When you know what to say
I won't know another
'Til I know
I won't know another
'Til I know
Even though I keep on telling you
But still oh no, no
I won't know another
'Till I know
Here, only love
Don't invent me
'Til you need me
Will I fall in now?
Only love, don't invent me
'Til you need me
I won't love another
'Til I learn
I won't love another
'Til I learn
Even though I keep on telling you
But still oh no, no
I won't know another
'Til I know
Here, only love
Don't invent me
'Til you need me
I fall in now
Only love, don't invent me
'Til you need me
Here, only love
Don't invent me
'Til you need me
I fall in now
Only love, don't invent me
'Til you need me
Here, only love
Don't invent me
'Til you need me
I fall in now
Only love, don't invent me
'Til you need me
Here, only love
Don't invent me
'Til you need me
I fall in now
Only love, don't invent me
You can depend on certainty
Count it out and weigh it up again
You can be sure, you?ve reached the end
And still you don?t feel
(You know about anything)
Do you know you?re beautiful?
Do you know you?re beautiful?
Do you know you?re beautiful?
You are, yes you are
You can ignore what you?ve become
Take it out and see it die again
You can be here for who?s a friend
And still you don?t feel
(You know about anyone)
Do you know you?re beautiful?
Do you know you?re beautiful?
Do you know you?re beautiful?
You are, yes you are
Innermost thoughts will be understood and
You can have all you need
Do you know you?re beautiful?
Do you know you?re beautiful?
Do you know you?re beautiful?
You're not seventeen
To be missing him like you do
Knowing him like you do
He said, "How can I"
Still be missing you
I'll be missing you
'Til you're missing me
How can I feel
I'm not innocent
And I know that I could
I'm not seventeen
And I know that you're not to blame
And if I could reason
I'd settle this thing
Still be missing you
I'll be missing you
'Til you're missing me
How can I feel
'Til you're touching me alone
Still be missing you
'Til you talk to me alone
I'll be missing you
'Til you talk to me eternal
'Til you're missing me
Come to me yourself
How can I feel
Still be missing you
This is how I'll be missing you
'Til you're missing me
How can I feel
'Til you're touching me
Still be missing you
'Til you talk to me
I'll be missing you
'Til you talk to me
'Til you're missing me
How, how, how can I feel
'Til you're touching me
Still be missing you
'Til you talk to me
I'll be missing you
'Til you talk to me
'Til you're missing me
( metalic voice )
All turning back to your life
All in vain
All coming back here to me
All in vain
All knowing all innocence
All in vain
All giving all suffering
All in vain
Here love is all you need
Here love is all you need
Here love is all you need
Here love is all you need
Keep hearing your inner voice
Only dear
Keep hearing your inner thoughts
Only dear
Keep selling your inner life
Only dear
Keep telling your little lies
Only dear
Here love is all you need
Here love is all you need
Here love is all you need
Here love is all you need
Here love is all you need
Here love is all you need
Here love is all you need
Here love is all you need
( metalic voice )
Here love is all you need
Here love is all you need
Here love is all you need
Nothing you say can hurt me now
Into the space, I fell, I fall
A strange river is deep and I
Into the dark I dive
I took leave
Kissing the day
Took leave
Kissing your mouth
Supportively
Kissing the day
It took some time for me to try
To learn to love this child of mine
Not for nothing she survived
Into this space, I feel to find
I took leave
Kissing the day
Took leave
Kissing your mouth
Supportively
Kissing the day
Your saddest hour
Is too late so cry
Your tears could be
Your saddest now
I took leave
Kissing the day
Took leave
Kissing your mouth
Supportively
Kissing the day
I took leave
Kissing the day
Took leave
Kissing your mouth
Supportively
Now I can trust you now
As I feel at ease
How lost in you should I be
Now I can see you clear
As the day begins
How lost in this should we be
Share and say you'll bring
To me deep love
You can't say that it's too soon to say how you feel
Share and say you'll bring
To me deep love
Just don't say that it's too soon to say how you feel
Now as I touch you here
As the day begins
How lost in this should I be
Share and say you'll bring
To me deep love
You can't say that it's too soon to say how you feel
Share and say you'll bring
To me deep love
Just don't say that it's too soon to say how you feel
Share and say you'll bring
To me deep love
You can't say that it's too soon to say how you feel
Share and say you'll bring
To me deep love
Similar not the same
You will allow a low light
Will sunlight heal the core of your body
And the sound I hold so dear
Who wouldn't sing for love?
And who wouldn't do all of that?
Looks like I've been the sole nobody
And now I couldn't follow this
I believe, I believe now
See you a lot near the site
And to you I throw a low light
And the sight of you is so in my body
And the sight I hold so dear
Who wouldn't sing for me now
And who wouldn't have done all of that
Looks like I've been a friend to nobody
And now I couldn't lead you home
I believe, I believe now
I believe, I believe now
The sunlight heal the core of your body
And the sound I hold so dear
Looks like I've been a friend to nobody
And now I couldn't lead you home
(I believe, I believe)
The sunlight heal the core of your body
(I believe)
And the sound I hold so dear
(I believe)
I believe, I believe now
Her words
Have left me
Discharged like
A space
She stepped in to
Reveal
The doubt
I've felt
What if i
Take a little more
Than you need
What if i
Say I believe in me
Adequate for qualified
Oh to be
All that I say I can be
Her world
Has shown me
It's not just me
Who needs more
Just to be this
And need no more
Must be so much relief
Must be all
What if i
Take a little more
Than you need
What if i
Say I believe in me
Adequate for qualified
Oh to be
All that I say I can be
But what if I need her
Her words
Have left me
What if i
Take a little more
Than you need
What if i
Say I believe in me
Adequate for qualified
Oh to be
All that I say I can be
Oh mommy mommy
Oh mommy mommy, yeah
I stood too near the gaslight and I cried
The dirty city mist had seeped too deep inside
It took me on some kind of heady ride
It's only Charlie Parker died
And I don't want, I don't want
And I don't want the night to end
Oh daddy daddy
Oh daddy daddy, yeah
Waiting half my life on platforms underground
The other half I wasted as a desperate clown
My problem now is that you're not around
In dark delicious dreams of you I'll drown
And I, I don't want
I don't want the night to end
Oh baby baby
Oh baby baby baby baby baby, yeah
Wrapped around your soul is where I wanna be
But in the night blue music's all I seem to see
The drunks out in the rain down on one knee
And what, and what is to become of you and me
And I don't want
I don't want the night to end
I don't want, I don't want
I don't want the night to end
I don't want the night to end
Give to you
Only so you'll believe
And my desire
I'm dead without
Your rush and pull
Hard to forget
It numbs the soul
I need to know
Relishes fear
That you wear so well
It leaves me colder
Hating this thing
I always see
I'm always saying something
I always said
It's not the end of something
I'll stand alone
I never meant to hurt you
I always do
It makes no sense
But you forget
This time it's clear
To you I'm here but
Your love's the same and
Intent aside
We're night and day
Still you forget
How it numbs the soul
I need to know
Only with you that
I keep myself from all I know
Hating this thing
I always see
I'm always saying something
I always said
It's not the end of something
I'll stand alone
I never meant to hurt you
I always do
It makes no sense
What I do
I never mean
Je sais je sais
Je sais je sais
I always see
I'm always saying something
I always said
It's not the end
I understand
What I did
I never meant to hurt you
I always do
You couldn't even bring yourself to stay, oh no
You had to go, spoil it all
I know you had to go
Now I find these endlessly
Colorblind days to fill
You never will
(Take this life)
Take this life
Take it all
In your hands
You were mine
I could smile
You understand, fine
Again, I dream
You come to me
(Come back to me)
And comfort me
But now I dream
Where did this time go?
Where did this time go?
Did your love go
I know you have to go
Spoil it all
And now I know
You never will
(Take this life)
Take this life
Take it all
In your hands
You were mine
I could smile
You understand, fine
(Take this life)
Take this life
Take it all
In your hands
You were mine
I could smile
Again
Just what you said was cold advice
I discovered sticks go with knives
I discovered I could've die in your chains
Still I feel, so won't you stay
Oh, babe
(Take this life)
Take this life
Take it all
In your hands
You were mine
I could smile
You understand, fine
(Take this life)
Take this life
Take it all
In your hands
You were mine
I could smile
I'm trying to think this through
I'm trying to make this my best
And finding it makes no sense
I'm trying to live through this
Incredible and bleak sky
Incredible undertow i'm
I'm trying to make this my
Endeavour to hold on to the time
My heart is on the line
You'll find
The simple things
The time reveals
Will heal your mind
In simple things
The time reveals
You will be mine
Remember the truth will out
Remember the truth will find you
Remember the truth will out
Remember the lies you fed us
Incredible oversight
Incredible time to tell i'm
Trying to live with this
Endeavour to get through all of this
My heart is on the line
You'll find
The simple things
The time reveals
Will heal your mind
In simple things
The time reveals
You will be mine
It's close, it's near
It's close, it's near
It's close, it's near
It's close, it's near
The simple things
The time reveals
Will heal your mind
In simple things
The time reveals
You will be mine
She happened to you
A bright star
A sentient beauty
Ever lost in her light
You kept her denied
Everybody knows it's you
I should leave you alone
I should leave you to be
I should learn to let go
You'll be safer now everybody loves you
Even now
As i sleep now
Am i losing the light
Will i be denied
Everybody knows it's you...
All my fear
Everybody sees all my fear
Running down like you said
All that I fought
When you know that I should be
One solitary flame you remain
Been so long
Shouldn't be the last to hear
And a young love shouldn't be like this
And you won't look the same to me
And I don't know how long you'll remain
Speak low
And I feel light
I've fallen at your feet
I raise my voice to hear you speak
I'm lost to you
High
I feel alone x4
Say please
And I go weak
Your hands around my arms
The strength you have to hold me down
I'm asking you
I feel alone x4
Come to me and speak low
Come to me and speak low
Please
I go weak
I've fallen at your feet
I raise my voice to hear you
Speak I'm lost to you
I want you now as then
Don't tell me you want to stay
Too much time now has passed
Too too soon nothing to do
I was only thinking I would do right
Now and then I need a little sting
I was only trying not to second guess
Why you came but
Since I left you
I'm chasing opposites
Things that you do
Play on my mind till I so tired I can'tt
I can't see when you go
I can't see when you go
Silencing me, telling me things
No reason I should stay
When you know what to say
To taunt me
Talk is cheap
That look of yours
Too too cold
Now the cause
Could you feel ( could you feel )
So ravaged and misunderstood
Everything cha, cha, chained
Nothing remains
So consider now
When it was easy
Knowing what you do and what you gave
I was silly knowing what was to be
My mistake but
Since I left you
I'm chasing opposites
Things that you do
Play on my mind till I sets hard I can't
I can't see when you go
I can't see when you go
Silence away, silence with things
No reason why should stay
When you know what to say
To taunt me
That you will never see X6
That will never step on me
A sense of, since i left you
Since I left you
I'm chasing opposites
Things that you do
Play on my mind till I sets hard i can't
I can't see when you go
I can't see when you go
Silence away, silence with things
No reason why should stay
When you know what to say
Can't we talk
Set it right
Can't we talk
Anymore
All this time
Only you
Nothing more
All this time
It looks like
You won't be staying round
Given the time
And your mood
You look a lot like her
And you look so like
You won't be staying around
Here in this half light
You look a lot like her
Is it all
Lost and gone
Could you give
Me some room
Room to be
Room to heal
Worth as much
You will be
It looks like
You won't be staying round
Given the time
And your mood
You look a lot like her
And you look so like
You won't be staying around
Here in this half light
You look a lot like her
You decide
What I meant
What is right
You decide
Please believe
I will be
Here for you
I will be
It looks like
You won't be staying round
Given the time
And your mood
You look a lot like her
And you look so like
You won't be staying around
Here in this half light
You look a lot like her
Don't imagine
I'll be losing sleep now it's done
Waited so long
Trapped, imploded, suspended at your feet
Crooked but sure i'll shine like i did when i met you
When i wrote on the steps down by the river
Imagine, i've wasted more
I would kiss you but won't take more
Trapped, imploded, suspended at your feet
Crooked but sure i'll shine like i did when i met you
When i wrote on the steps down by the river
About strength in shining armour
About mirrors and rusting tears
You and I
Taken that vow
You know he's
Taken by now
Upset you
Talked you all 'round
In sympathy oh girl
Walk by the sea
Forgive me all my sins
Sift through my memory
And find where I begin
Lie in the warm sand
And dig in my heels
Cry for my dead child
Forget how that feels
Closer to home
He cuts you
Close to the bone
He won't leave you
It's too far to crawl
And everyone knows
Walk by the sea
Forgive me all my sins
Sift through my memory
And find where I begin
Lie in the warm sand
And dig in my heels
Cry for my dead child
Forget how that feels
Walk by the sea
Forgive me all my sins
Sift through my memory
And find where I begin
Lie in the warm sand
And dig in my heels
Cry for my dead child
Forget how that feels
I can feel me rising
I can feel me rising
Walk by the sea
Forgive me all my sins
Sift through memory
And find where I begin
Lie in the warm sand
And dig in my heels
Cry for my dead child
Forget how that feels
