I only ever want to see you,
When someone tells me that I need to.
Supposed to be your resurrection,
You should've left it on reflection.
Well there's something I'd like to say,
To you
Never be the same again,
Standing in the rain again,
Feeling lots of pain again,
December 28 again,
Your famous boxing day again,
You'll never be the same agian.
So you just tell the same old story,
And strike another Englands Glory.
Well there's something I'd like to say,
To you
Never be the same again,
Standing in the rain again,
Feeling lots of pain again,
You're pushed out of the frame again,
December 28 again,
You'll never be the same again.
I saw you standing in the rain again,
I saw you feeling all that pain again,
I bet you wanna go where people go,
You're gonna leave a strain again,
I saw you standing in the rain again,
I saw you feeling all that pain again,
Never be the same again,
What is life if your not there?
Why should I even care?
All alone inside my head
Watch the walls close in instead
I'm not supposed to bring you down
Your not supposed to turn me round
What are dreams if not made real?
How am I supposed to feel?
What's your love without some hate?
Should I act or hesitate?
It's a comfort when you
It's a comfort when you
It's a comfort when you smile
Well I know there is something about you girl
Though they say that nobody can change the world
In your eyes there's a smile
There's a soothing camomile
Makes it feel worth my while,
waiting for you girl
You move me
You move me
You move...
I must say I was smitten so long ago
I got caught pulled right down by your undertow
Just like the stars always shine
Just like them you can't be mine
Sing a sad Valentine all about you girl
You move me
You move me
You move...
I know it's time to stop believing
every part of me is wrong
I know it's time to start believing
'cos I need to carry on
Without you girl
You move me
You move me
Throw me a line
A plea for mankind, tell me
What did you find?
Weeping and wailing
It's happened before
They're planning a war
firing - spherical balls
Blowing those brains in
All I want is something
I can't find
Oh well never mind
Give me some peace
A blessed release from all
this blistering heat
and weeping and wailing
Take me to Greece
A blessed release from
all this West versus East
Pack so much hate in
All I want is something
I can't find
Oh well never mind
Throw me a line
A plea for mankind won't you tell me
What did you find?
When you were weeping and wailing
All I want is something
I can't find
You think that you can make
things easy on yourself
But in truth you make them harder everyday.
Full well I know your folly
Full well you'll guess my aim
If I could be the one you sometimes turn to
in times of need with your heavy regret
I know that I would triumph
I know that I would stay
Don't wanna walk through the eye
of any needle
Don't wanna watch the sand just fade
to grey
Full well I know my schisms
Take, what you want, 'cos this ship's going down
Fate, let it run, even though she's not around
You can feel the warmth coming from her face
For someone else trying to take your place
And you know she's almost gotten over you
There's a secret world where you try and hide
You wanna live but your dead inside
'cos you know she's almost gotten over you
Your remembering that smile the last look in her eyes
Your heart beats like a hummingbird's
You created, she destroyed
The thing that you enjoyed
You don't believe another world
You can feel the warmth coming from her face
For someone else trying to take your place
And you know she's almost gotten over you
There's a secret world where you try and hide
You wanna live but your dead inside
Been around for ages so it won't change now,
Pleasing shallow faces and I don't care how,
Some little starry young thing robs me blind,
All the time, I try,
My finger leaves an imprint in your wet intent,
You keep receiving flowers that were never sent, yeah,
Some little scabby young thing sucks me dry,
Friday night, she's got to slow down
And the pavement's alive on Sunday,
In my feet keep the time, stop me falling,
This one,
You're the only one,
You're the only thing,
When your change goes right...
(mumbles like "stone roses t-shirt" and "his hearts in the right place")
She's ringing in the changes and she feels quite sure,
Be closer to the distance than I been before,
Some little scabby young thing sucks me dry,
Friday night, she's got to slow down,
And the saints are alive on Sunday,
And my feet keep the time that stopped me falling,
Well let me talk about this one,
You're the only one,
You're the only thing,
When your change goes right...
Let's talk about this one,
You're the only one,
You're the only thing,
You're the only one,
(Lets talk about the way you cut yourself,
And it was just tomato sauce,
All the times, I can't get inside)
Everyday I wake up I see footprints on the ceiling,
didn't realise they came from me
All we ever wanted here was something to believe in
Heaven's closed down, Mecca's obsolete
Well it's a hallelujah day and I'm a Walther P.P.K.
If I told you my story, man you wouldn't believe it
'cos the things I've seen and do are hard to percieve
And so I'll stop my talking now and draw back the curtain
Only thing you're finding out
Nothing's for certain. Nothing's for certain
Watching my head go round
She's watching my head go round
She's watching my head
Watching my head go round
It can't be that easy sharing someone with a demon
Go and find yourself out on the street
No smoke without fire they say,
now Adam's burning Eden
Nothing ever turns out like it seems
Well it's a Hallelujah day, and I'm a Walther P.P.K.
If I told you my story, man you wouldn't believe it
'cos the things I've seen and done are hard to percieve
And so I'll stop my talking now and draw back the curtain
Only thing your finding out
Nothing's for certain
Nothing's for certain
Found a little piece of nothing and I clung on.
Because even nothing feels like something
when something's gone
It's summertime, on the planet helpless
You gotta save yourself,
don't wanna scarlet necklace
Say what you mean
Mean what you say
Say what you feel
Feel what you say
Found the head of a marble angel,
down Sadness Glade
For the sins of my long-gone fore-fathers,
I've surely paid
Your eyes are blue, they're just like Minton china
Keep doing what you do
And you'll be non the wiser
Say what you mean
Mean what you say
Say what you feel
Well you started by yourself
and then you lived with someone else
but you can't go back the way it was before
And I can see it in the eyes
I just know when things aren't right
and nothing seems to matter anymore.
It doesn't matter anymore (x3)
Well how does it feel when you're on your own their now,
how does it feel when I'm on my own terms now,
goin all the way and I don't care what you say,
no way, no way, no way.
Well you started out as one
another one made twice the fun,
but you tried to do some digging and got buried,
well its happened twice before
and you know it'll happen more,
now I can't feel my legs like I'm being carried.
It doesn't matter if I
try counting out on all my five fingers
where I'm supposed to go
I tried hanging round with all the dead ringers
people I used to know.
Well how does it feel when you're on your own their now,
how does it feel when I'm on my own terms now,
goin all the way and I don't care what you say.
Cos don't you know that ooh
I've started again, started again
and if I didn't have you
I'd have to pretend, have to pretend.
when nothing is right where do I go
and what do I say and who do I know
With our heads to the side nobody
quite knows where they are
A trio of lies, trying to knock you
off your guard
With our heads to the side
With our heads to the side
You give me criminal ways in a
subliminal haze
Ironstone Izadora's the name
Got the mark of Cain I hang on
a chain around my neck
I'll say it again, pleasure or pain
what's coming next?
Move your head to the side
Move your head to the side
You give me criminal ways
in a subliminal haze
Ironstone Izadora's my name
Ironstone Izadora's my name
Tell me why she tells those lies
when she lies with you?
Tell me why its no surprise
Gazing down on rows of houses where my body's laid.
Floating over hills and mountains, airbone renegade.
I don't know why I don't even hesitate,
I don't know why I don't.
First communion tainded union,
Burn them down everyone.
Scribbled scriptures,
What's the point my son.
I don't know why I don't even feel afraid,
I don't know why I don't even hesitate.
The room slows down,
soon I'll be coming round.
Gazing down on rows of houses, guess who pulls the strings?
Keep the money, feelings, everything.
But I don't know why I don't even hesitate
How does it feel to feel the way?
The self-same way you've felt most everyday
When you were young that feeling kept you strong
Now you don't know if you can carry on
I don't wanna hurt you baby
I don't wanna hurt you darling
We just need to carry on
I was the only child of five
I had to struggle hard to stay alive
Walking on water now with open arms
Just singing a hymn for those you thought had gone
I don't wanna hurt you baby
I don't wanna hurt you darling
We just need to carry on
How does it feel to feel the way?
The self-same way you've felt most everyday
When you were young that feeling kept you strong
But now you don't know if you can carry on
Time, comes down very hard
No matter how you try
You'll never get by
Self dissintergrating not worth educating
All I want to do is drag you down,
I climb out of my fox hole
my own sweet chicken pox hole,
All I want to do is snuff you out
Tell me if I could be like I was last night again,
trying to convince you that black was white again,
oh you say you know
I know you don't
I've got a picture in my mind,
sat on a chair near a broken blind with you,
A little scene left way behind,
sat in the church of the broken spine with you.
Lay back watching football with no interest at all,
why can't I just never see it through,
Tell me if I could be like I was last night again,
you could be wrong and be oh so right again,
oh you say you know I know you don't (x2)
I've got a picture in my mind,
sat on a chair near a broken blind with you,
A little scene left way behind,
Behind the man
Behind the tree
Behind the man
Behind the fence
Behind the way of pure deceit
Behind the way I take offence
Behind the face
Behind the glass
Behind the first
Devastation in slow motion on a wing and a prayer
Big, big city colours, small people despair
It's just an analgesic love song but it's wearing me out
All you disenfranchised children it's time to come out
And it feels like I'm home again
And it feels like we've got to shelter from the rain
You say that you can, but I'm more of a man
You can't hold me down
You say that you will, but I still got the will
You can't hold me down
And if everybody's mobile, why don't nobody move?
Just your Intel, hard-sell lifestyle disrupting your groove
I got a face down ball gown angel
I wish she were mine
And this analgesic love song that makes me drive blind
And it feels like I'm home again
And it feels like we've got to shelter from the rain
You say that you can, but I'm more of a man
You can't hold me down
You say that you will, but you can't break my will
You can't hold me down
You say that you can, but I'm more of a man
You can't hold me down
No, No
You always seem to me, to be so understanding,
Now you go away and leave me empty-handed,
Your fashions changed and now you know,
I'm way outside my only home,
Wanna go outside so I can keep my clothes on,
I've seen it all a million times, I wanna keep my clothes on,
If I can change your mind now,
If I can make you climb down,
Then I'll feel such a fool,
You always seem to me to have the right perception,
I'm in a different place, I'm at the wrong reception,
Your fashion changed and now you fold,
You leave me standing in the hope,
Wanna go outside so I can keep my clothes on,
I've seen it all a million times, I wanna keep my clothes on,
If I can change your mind now,
And if I can make you climb down,
If can change your mind now,
Then I'll feel so secure,
If I can change your mind now,
And if I can make you climb down,
If can change your mind now,
When I was young my father said,
Just close your eyes and I'll be there,
You shrink my soul, you shrink my soul,
And then he'd say, I won't be home,
So let it all go,
Just let it all go,
How then?
I never meant to ask you out,
I never need to read your mind,
But you shrink my soul,
You shrink my soul,
And then you say, I've always known,
So let it all go,
Because we all know,
Can you tell?
Oh yeah
Well let me take this opportunity,
I'll try and make amends,
Oh well I feel there's nothing left to say,
Don't waste your time on the kiss of life
We're the walking dead now
Don't even try in your nine to five
We're the walking dead now
Look overhead, listen what I said,
you'll see our little halo's
Someone should've told you I'm on the run,
five weeks seven days I need a gun, yeah.
I'm the public enemy number one
five weeks seven days
Inside, there's no place to hide
We ain't got no shelter
You can't come inside,
there's no place to hide,
'cos we ain't got no shelter
Someone should've told you I'm on the run,
five weeks seven days I need a gun, yeah.
Someone should've told you I'm on the run,
five weeks seven days so give me some, yeah.
I'm the public enemy number one
five weeks seven days I need a gun, yeah
I'm the public enemy number one
five weeks seven days
We've got no culture,
We ain't got no shelter,
We're the walking dead now
I'm the public enemy number one,
Now I know that you think that I'm miserable,
But you have to understand,
There's a hole in my soul, it's considerable,
And I need a helping hand,
There were times when I said,
I've been waiting for someone like you,
(Someone just like you)
If I see you again,
Well there's one thing that I'm gonna do,
Walk on by,
I changed my mind,
I take myself to another time,
Because my home is not my own,
And it is just like I've never known you,
When they say we're alike in a million ways,
Well I say I'm not so sure,
(Say I'm not so sure)
Because when you're away it's a holiday,
As opposed to being a war,
Do you cry to yourself?
Do you almost lose your mind?
Are you seeing someone else?
Well those people are so hard to find,
Walk on by,
I changed my mind,
I take myself to another time,
Because my home is not my own,
And it is just like I've never known you,
I said ooh, ooh, can't you see,
I need a helping hand,
I said it's true, it's cruel,
I won't come into land,
Do you cry to yourself?
Do you almost lose your mind?
Are you seeing someone else?
Hope he's the understanding kind,
Don't you know when you go,
Got to get back where you're supposed to go,
Don't you know when you go,
Got to get back where you're supposed to go,
I said ooh, can't you see, (can't you see)
I said ooh, won't you believe, (won't you believe)
High time for nothing, there's a clock in the prison cell.
Superfly sells me something, made me come out of my shell.
Now I don't even have to tell you, you already know.
Any map in any station, pick a line and go !
You've always got the street lights,
Shining on your hard times,
Don't it make your shoes shine,
Starin at the street lights.
Hey street lights wont you save me?
Bringing down aircraft with your eyes don't amaze me.
The former number one contender
Squealing on a spike,
You keep screaming no surrender, go and ride your bike.
You've always got the street lights,
Shining on your hard times,
When the top one hundred earner's coffins have been nailed.
When you stop the lovely sisters opening your mail,
And when the reason you're drinking isn't solely to get wrecked.
It'll be hard times for something
wouldn't hold my breath.
You've always got the street lights,
Shining on your hard times,
Don't it make your shoes shine,
I'm sick of hating,
I'm so sick of hating here,
I'd give anything just to get away,
The cattle's straying,
Though I never joined your herd,
And I earned more than you do, in one day,
And I never changed mind,
So take me just as you'd find me,
Come and sit down by my side,
Or better still sit behind me,
Sit behind me,
I'm sick of sleeping,
I'm so sick of sleeping here,
Though I'm happy when I keep my eyes closed,
The cat is creeping,
Because he thrives on the absurd,
And his brains are lemon curd and champagne,
Of course I never change my mind,
You know just where you can find me,
Come and sit down by my side,
I think you've taken a shine to me,
Took a shine,
And I never changed mind,
You know just where you can find me,
Come and sit down by my side,
Or better still sit behind me,
Can I take you from all sides,
Because you've taken a shine to me,
Took a shine,
I'm sick of waiting,
I'm sick of waiting,
I'm sick of waiting,
You, you're ringing alarms,
Skin hangs loose from your arms,
Tell me what's the appeal?
I keep looking back,
At a photograph,
Didn't realise,
That the photograph was you,
You're going through drawers,
Say it's for a good cause,
Tell me what's the appeal?
If the lights come on,
Then that means you're gone,
And two streets away,
Feels just like you've won, oh,
You took a ride to the other side,
And then you let yourself go,
You think you know what you really want,
But you're fading fast, oh,
All I know is you can't come back again,
How you gonna get out?
(How you gonna get out?)
You, you say what you like,
You like what you say,
There's no natural feel,
I keep looking back,
At the photograph,
At the frozen smile,
That keeps staring back, oh,
You took a ride to the other side,
But you let yourself go,
You think you know what you really want,
But you're fading fast, oh,
All I know is you can't come back again,
You took a ride to the other side,
And then you let yourself go,
You think you know what you really want,
But you're fading fast, oh,
All I know, is you won't come back again,
How you gonna get out?
How you gonna get out?
There I was, just standing in your shadow,
Just standing in your pool of shade venere.
Here I am, still yellowed by the summer,
Still sufferin in silence loud and clear.
Well I catch the train, it takes me back
We leave the rails and the carriage snaps.
There I was, just lying in the kitchen,
Just listening to voices through the tiles.
And they said the one thing you can count on,
Is you can count on nothing here my child.
Well you dig my grave, and pat my back,
And I turn grey, on the beaten track.
But you hardly notice.
What do you say when they roll a grenade
And it almost takes your breath away.
Talking to Joe with the head of a crow
And it all goes pear-shaped.
There I was, just standing in your shadow,
(Doo do do do do do)
I don't wanna let you down
I see what you're doing now
Well it's a crime
What you've been through
See how I changed my ways
Strung out since yesterday
And I
I wont be lonely
I wont be lonely, like you are now
Simmer down, yeah yeah
Open out, yeah yeah
Do it now
I wont be lonely
I wanna know me, is new in town
Stuffed out a hurricane
I came through the last chicane
It's time, to push on through
I heard Robert Nester called
"Freedom for one and all"
And now
Just look at me
I'm a silver breeze
I'm a passing cloud
So simmer down, yeah yeah
Open out, yeah yeah
Do it now
Yeah yeah
Yeah yeah
Simmer down, yeah yeah
Open out, yeah yeah
Do it now
Do it now
The sun comes out
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
Thought there was nothing left for me
I gave up on destiny
'til she came floating by
I felt like I'd always known her face
Hail Mary full of grace
You're drinking my lake dry
But my eyes are streaming
And my head is spinning
And I don't know how I don't know why
You stop speaking and my heart stops beating
And I don't know how I don't know why
Thought there was nowhere left to go
She's like a prisms colour flow
So constant and unreal
Things sort a happen so it goes
In a town of fallen souls
I find it hard to feel
But my eyes are streaming
And my head is spinning
And I don't know how I don't know why
You stop speaking and my heart stops beating
And I don't know how I don't know why
Thought there was nothing left for me
I gave up on destiny
'til she came floating by
But my eyes starts streaming
And my head starts spinning
And I don't know how I don't know why
You stop speaking and my heart stops beating
I'm pleased to meet you Mr. Brown,
It's good to see you out with your Lady wife,
I'm living on this side of town,
I'm gonna have to take you out with my trusty knife,
Can you see?
When you listen and you notice,
That there's rubies in the glass,
All you answer, all you answer,
And you talk about it,
Say: Hey, why do you always lie?
You said I was closer than I thought,
Now you tell me the sun don't shine,
You said I was closer than I...
You understand it's not a game,
The money's in your coat and I think it's mine (I think it's mine),
You know, to me you look the same,
I do this every day and it works out fine,
Can you feel?
All you needed, all I wanted,
Were those rubies in the glass,
All you answer, all you answer,
And you talk about it,
Say: Hey, why do you always lie?
You said I was closer than I thought,
Now you tell me the sun don't shine,
You said I was closer than I thought,
All I ever want to,
How would you know?
How would you know?
Can you feel?
Can you notice? Can you feel it?
It's those rubies in the glass,
Oh you answer, oh you answer,
And there's rubies in.
(dont go changing me in a real way
oh hold on, oh hold on, oh hold on
yeah, yeah, changing me in a real way
oh hold on, oh hold on, oh hold on, hold on
Let me relate the tale of how I evened up the score.
I said I can't take anymore without my baby.
And let me relate the tale of how I barricade my door,
So I just can't hear a word of what you're saying.
You send a message through my soul,
I don't believe a word you said,
You say you'd like to take control
of all the feelings in my head,
You know I won't stop breathing
not untill I'm past believing now.
I'll take you beyond the pale while I end up on the floor,
If you could pass me up that score that you still owe me,
And let me try and make the sale, of all the things I owned before,
I said I'd like to eat my meat with vodka gravy.
You send a message through my soul,
I don't believe a word you said,
You say you'd like to take control
of all the feelings in my head,
You know I won't stop breathing
not untill I'm past believing.
You send a message through my soul,
I don't believe a word you said,
You say you'd like to take control
of all the feelings in my head,
You know I won't stop breathing
If I could have the one thing,
I would ask that you were closer by,
We all fade to nothing,
And the cloud surround me that's no lie,
I wonder away sometimes,
As the light surrounds me here I stand,
Wearing jeans in heaven,
No one really wants to hold your hand,
Just forever,
It's just forever,
Why don't you say goodbye to whatever,
Only forever,
It's just forever,
So why don't you say goodbye to your heaven,
If I could have the one thing,
That I so desire of my time,
It would be a small thing,
No one really wants you to retire,
Just forever,
Only forever,
Why don't you say goodbye to whatever,
It's just forever,
Only forever,
So why don't you wave goodbye to your heaven,
Let me give you half a chance to score,
You'll never find out,
Let me give you half a gap to score,
It's just forever, (It's just forever)
Only forever, (Only forever)
Why don't you say goodbye to whatever,
It's just forever, (It's just forever)
Only forever, (Only forever)
Why don't you wave goodbye to your heaven,
I'm here forever, (I'm here forever)
It's just forever, (It's just forever)
Why don't you wave goodbye to your heaven,
It's just forever, (It's just forever)
Only forever, (Only forever)
There's nothing like London in the rain,
There's nothing like falling from a moving train,
You know the killer's changed, the killer's changed, the killer's change,
Oh but he kills the same, he kills the same, he kills the same,
I belong back in London,
There's nothing like waiting for your call,
There's nothing like shaking in the Albert Hall,
You know the killer's strange, the killer's changed, the killer chain,
Oh but he kills the same, he kills the same, he kills the same,
What are we doing here?
Isn't everything clear?
I belong back in London,
I belong back in London,
I belong back in London,
I suppose that I'm all right now,
When all you ever gave was nothing,
I suppose you taught me well now,
When all I ever learned was something,
I suppose that I'm all right now,
I'm all right now and I suppose it,
They suppose they taught me well now,
You taught me hell now and no one knows it,
All right now, all right now, all right now,
There's no horses left to bet on,
And all your pretty purse is blown away,
Someone shows me I've been stepped on,
And now I'm left with nothing more to say,
And I propose we're not all right now,
But I'm all right now, and I propose it,
They suppose they taught me well now,
You taught me hell now and no one knows it,
You're getting sucked in little by little,
And I suppose you feel all right now, all right now, don't feel,
You're getting shot down a little by little,
And I suppose you feel all right now and no one knows it,
( I've got nothing and I feel fine)
(I'm right now, I'm right now)
Have you lost your feeling?
Have you lost your sense of breathing?
Have you gained that tainted feeling?
So, so cold,
Someone poisoned what you're eating,
You're getting shot down, you're getting pushed in, a little by little,
And I suppose you feel all right now, all right now, don't feel,
You're getting shot down a little by little,
And I suppose you feel all right now, all right now, don't feel,
You're getting pushed in a little by little,
And I'm all right now and no one knows it,
And no one knows it, and no one knows it,
BURMA PURRESENCE
SOMETIMES IFEEL ,SHE'S ALRIGHT ,SHE'S OK
SHES NOT TIRED.
WITH EVERY WORD THAT IS SPOKEN
WERE MORE BROKEN

And now I'm walking round and round
With a smile
Cos I'm thinking 'bout myself, for the first time
And I, don't walk the same streets
As everybody else, never have
Oh well the one I tried didn't last
Have the last laugh

And I cant seem to find no way (yeah, yeah)
And all I can do it to keep you to myself
Shall I stay or shant I?

Shall I stay or shall I?
Shall I stay or shall I, yeah?
Shall I stay or shall I, yeah?
Shall I stay or shall I, yeah?
Shall I stay or shall I, yeah?
When it stops I can see so clear,
And like a star I can disappear,
You're only half the way you were,
And your other half is calling,
So when you take a look around,
You'll realise it's only leaving,
So come on, come on, come on,
Out here,
So come on, come on, come on,
(You're only half the way you were)
(You're only half the way you were)
(You're only half the way you were)
(You're only half the way you were)
I can't lie my left hand is shaking,
I'll be fine once my head stops aching,
So just take back the clothes you stole,
Cause now you're in control it's clear,
But you're only half the way you were,
You're only half the way you were last year, (last year)
So come on, come on, come on,
Out here,
So come on, come on, come on,
(You're only half the way you were) [sung constantly in background]
When I was nine you gave me the sign,
It showed me so well,
I thought it hard at the time I committed a crime,
But you never can tell,
How do I explain the way, (the way I feel)
I'm not exactly here,
You know I've been blinded out on a golf course, ???? yeah
So come on, come on, come on,
So come on, come on, come on,
You're only half the way the were (x 8)
I didn't know at the time I committed a crime,
But you never can tell,
How do I explain the way, (the way I feel)
I'm not exactly here,
Well I'm coming home again
on a future missing plane
and there's water on the window
a message in the rain
Just when I thought all was lost
nothing could describe it
If you' re fighting for a cause
nobody should hide it
Here's my excuse, here's my excuse
and I don't know any better
who do you lose, who do you lose
when you don't know any better
Well I'm driving home again
try to lose the pain she gain
and the radio explains
someone else just took my place
Here's my excuse, here's my excuse
and I don't know any better
Falling for you, falling for you
cause I don't know any better
You think we are all the same..
Looking through my window,
I can see a thin glow,
I don't get depressed though,
I'm casting lazy shadows,
It's all I need to stop me thinking,
Every single day though,
I throw myself away though,
It's all I need to stop me thinking,
Get my head-straight, get my head-straight, get it straight,
Don't you ever, don't you, don't, don't you ever let go,
You take it all back, take it back, take your money back,
Don't you ever, don't you, don't, don't you ever let go,
All I need's to stop me thinking,
Looking through this window,
I need a change of view though,
Looking through last year though,
But all I saw was you, though,
You're all I need to stop me thinking,
Get my head-straight, get my head-straight, get it straight,
Don't you ever, don't you, don't, don't you ever let go,
You take it all back, take it back, take your money back,
Don't you ever, don't you, don't, don't you ever let go,
All I wanted was to chicken out,
And simmer down,
You've got your head gear on again,
And you feel like you've been left out,
Don't you ever, don't you, don't you ever, don't you,
Don't you ever, don't you, don't you ever, don't you,
I've gotta get my head-straight, get my head-straight, get it straight,
Don't you ever, don't you, don't you never, don't, let go,
And that is all right,
Get my head-straight, get my head-straight, get my head,
Don't you ever, don't you, don't, don't you ever let go,
And that is all right,
Get my head-straight, get my head-straight, get my head,
Don't you ever, don't you, don't, don't you ever let go,
And that is all right,
You take it all back, take it back, take your money back,
Don't you ever, don't you, don't, don't you ever let go,
Is there somewhere we can stay together,
Somewhere we can make the same mistakes yeah,
Looks like Michaels dad will face the river,
Don't you change, rearrange what I've said,
I need something that is more substantial,
Fashions change, will they change what I wear?
Don't run inside,
I can't find the time,
Just to relieve my mind,
And then your ruler goes on,
And you change the way,
How I perceive the day,
In any other way,
And you always feel so rare,
Like you'd never think so,
They'll surround you when I'm there,
And you'll never think so,
Still you've got your health and that's the main thing,
Oh no,
Looking at myself I'd say the same thing,
Don't let Michael change your face, not ever,
Don't you change, rearrange what I've said,
I need something that is more substantial,
Platform sale, go and see your council,
Don't run inside,
I can't find the time,
Just to relieve my mind,
Its heavy breathing time,
And then your ruler goes on,
And you change the way,
How I perceive the day,
In any other way,
And you always feel so rare,
And you'd never think so,
They'll surround you when I'm there,
And you'd never think so,
And you always get so green,
And you'd never think so,
Such a beautiful machine,
And you'll never think so,
And then your ruler goes on,
And you change the way,
How I perceive the day,
Bless my holy soul I'm connected to a God,
Lets not talk about my addictions anymore,
I'd like to by you all a lovely drink,
Because my money stinks,
Will you understand the position that I'm in,
Would I be the same if I hadn't made it big?
Here we go again, on a mission to the stars,
Make-up on my face, covers those unsightly scars,
I'd like to say your always in my dreams,
But this ain't what it seems,
Will you understand the position that I hold,
Will it feel the same, if I'm gonna lose control?
Lose control
(Will you understand, will you understand?)
We don't talk about your afflictions anymore,
Notice on my face, "there's a place, there's a place"
Will you understand the position that I hold,
Will I feel the same, if I'm gonna lose control?
Will you understand?
Can you understand?
Will they understand?
Now as I walk along the shore,
Do the dance of the chicken's claw,
This snakes growing inside of me,
I, I can only be so butch,
While the mans talking double Dutch,
This place got zero gravity,
I don't know a thing so I don't say a word,
You tell me I'm the king but I sing like a girl,
You always tell me things that I don't want to hear,
The frequency's not clear,
She said she climbed the steepest climb,
But if you're that way inclined,
She said she's gonna work it out,
Holy Moses this town can't keep you down,
Looks like you just lost your crown,
In a town that's not worth any shelf,
I don't know a thing so I don't say a word,
You tell me I'm the king and then get me referred,
You always tell me things that I don't want to hear,
The frequency's not clear,
Feels lively, feels lively, feels lively,
I don't know why the wind blows,
I don't know why the trees grow,
I don't know why there's black snow,
At the end of my rainbow,
Why it's cold in the summer,
Why it's warm in the winter,
I sign my giro in biro,
Drinking lager or bitter, oh
You can stand beside me,
You can walk behind me,
You can stand beside me,
You can walk behind me,
Why don't we all just go home,
Why don't we all just go home,
I don't know why the flames burn,
I don't know why my head aches,
I don't know which way to turn,
I don't know how to slam on the brakes,
I don't know why the wind blows,
I don't know why the trees grow,
I don't know why there's black snow,
At the end of my rainbow,
You can stand beside me,
You can walk behind me,
You can stand beside me,
You can walk behind me,
Why don't we all just go home,
Why don't we all just go home,
Why don't we all just go home,
Pleasure is a feeling rarely tasted,
Leisure was just time I spent and wasted,
But I always know that even though,
We're side by side we'll never work it out,
Or justify what we're about,
Knowing is much better than not knowing,
Things that I'd be knowing could bring, down a Boeing,
I always say that it's okay,
It won't be long before I've finally found,
My head is itching for a crown,
I can't hide all my life,
Shout it out - are you?
Shout it down - are you?
Another day and another night,
Another path to choose,
With someone I once knew,
I just want to be with you,
Gaining the attention of the nation,
Purely through my half-baked observation,
But I always know that even though,
We're side by side we'll never work it out,
And all I feel right now is doubt,
I can't hide all my life,
Shout it out - are you?
Shout it down - are you?
Another day and another night,
Another path to choose,
With someone I once knew,
I just want to be with you,
I just want to be with you,
I just want to be with you,
Want to be with you,
When they say they want you,
They never really want you, no,
When they say they need you,
They never really need you, no,
I'm at a bus stop waiting,
And you're just devastating,
You stay at home with Rachel,
You know it's simulating,
You sit at home with Rachel,
And let her set you straight yeah,
You're only trying to twist my arm,
You're only trying to twist my arm,
You're only trying to twist my arm,
You're only trying to twist my arm,
You're only trying to twist my arm,
You're only trying to twist my arm,
And if they say they need you,
They never really need you, no,
And you should stop complaining,
And organise a chaining,
You're only trying to twist my arm,
You're only trying to twist my arm,
You're only trying to twist my arm,
You're only trying to twist my arm,
You're only trying to twist my arm,
You're only trying to twist my arm,
It's like I said,
You're just trying to twist my arm,
Don't lose my head,
It's the cold that keeps me warm,
How many times,
Have I sat in a car park waiting,
To hear the way you're saying,
I've sat in a car park waiting,
To hear the way you're saying, (To eat away your pain)
It's the cold that keeps you warm,
I dont know what it's like I said,
Lie, I had to lie, I had to say
What I felt inside.
I can't sleep, I just can't sleep,
I walk for miles but I see no trees.
Don't you know that they don't understand?
All the days are similar in plan
They'll turn the lights out when I die.
They'll turn the lights out when I die.
And it's good to know you're with somebody half as good as me.
They'll put a statue up outside,
And I can watch with pharaohs eye's,
And then they'll all know I was somebody.
Kate, you're all washed out,
you've had your time now it's just about,
That time to give it in, cos someone's waiting to step right in.
Don't you know your shoes are out of style?
It's good to spit it out before you smile.
They'll turn the lights out when I die.
They'll turn the lights out when I die.
And it's good to know you're with somebody half as good as me.
They'll put a statue up outside,
Just like the pharaohs did a high,
And then they'll all know I was somebody.
All I really know is all I see, I'm half the way,
And all I really see is half I know.
So what is it that makes me loath the way I am?
So what is it, what does it mean?
Sometimes I just don't know where I'm going to,
Yeah, will you help me pass away my time,
And sometimes I just can't see any reason to,
I have never been that wise,
So cast your eyes but it's over,
Saturday's, the day now,
You got it all wrong,
There's a traffic jam in memory lane,
I'm gonna try to trick myself out,
You got it all wrong,
and I find it hard to find my eccentricity,
Yeah, will you help me throw away my time,
You fire the cars that give you electricity,
I think you know it,
Hardly exercise its minds,
I just can't believe we're down this far,
I just can't believe we slipped this far,
I just can't believe I'm down this far,
In this memory lane, traffic jam,
So cast your eyes but it's over,
Cause Saturday's a day now, you got it all wrong,
And there's a traffic jam in memory lane,
I'll never try to trick myself out, you got it all wrong,
Think of the times you had,
Why did they pass so slowly?
Think of the things you said,
The way I believed them holy,
Yes, well we know when I find the time,
I'm gonna run right up and down the line,
Everything I said,
Why did I even bother?
Everyone wants to fly,
Finding it hard to hover,
Yes, well you know when I find the time,
I'm gonna run right up and down the line,
Yes, well you know when they saw up the stairs,
There's gonna be no one to greet me there,
But I'm starting to feel like I just can't stand,
Everything moves so slowly, so slowly,
Walking around and holding hands,
With people that just don't know me,
Don't know me, don't know me,
It's a shame,
It's just like a game,
Sinking another beer,
Using the stolen plastic,
Starting to disappear,
Boil me down in acid,
The thorns and the flies on an English rose,
I'm gonna burn your eyes and stain them gold,
I am alright now I suppose,
But I'm starting to feel like I just can't stand,
Everything moves so slowly, so slowly,
Walking around and holding hands,
With people that just don't know me, they don't know me,
And it's slowly revolving
Above and below me,
It's a shame, It's a shame,
They say they don't want you around,
They say they don't want you around,
I'm starting to feel like I just can't stand,
Everything moves so slowly, so slowly,
Walking around and holding hands,
With people that just don't know me,
And it's slowly revolving,
Above and below me,
It's a shame,
It's a game,
It's a shame,
You work like a drone,
Go home and jump on our bones,
Is it wild how the long recline,
Use the telephone,
Long side of the track,
We'll say that's where we met,
You should take heed of a greater need,
I'm not made of stone,
Is anybody listening,
Don't care, it's what you're pissing in,
Cause where we're going now,
They don't put you down,
They don't stare you out,
Where we're going now,
Used to see you feeding your greed,
You're leading me to feeling the need,
In the wounds of your old platoon,
You should let it bleed,
Nothing ever happens as planned,
Living with a claw for a hand,
Stuck in a show with a girl in tow,
And the laughter's canned,
Is anybody listening?
You're stuck with us through thick and thin,
Where we're going now,
They don't let you down,
They don't stare you out,
Where we're going,
Where we're going now,
Where we're going now,
Where we're going now,
Where we're going now,
Every day I sit at home and sharpen up the knives
but it's alright, it's alright.
Today is the tomorrow that I dreamed about last night,
so shine a light, shine a light, but I...
Just wanna feel what I felt before, but I
I want you to know that I need it more.
Well the blind lead the blind
are the saints still alive since the last time?
At the end of the line
was I cruel to be kind in a past life?
Sharpen up your knives.
Every day I chip at stone while you are on your way,
up to the stars, up to the stars.
I don't know where I'm going to,
I don't know where you are,
but it's a start, but it's a start, and I'm...
Just gonna say what I, said before but I,
I want you to know that I need it more.
Well the blind lead the blind
are the saints still alive since the last time?
And I don't wanna stay,
don't wanna go away in a past life.
It's not alright
I've given up on horses hooves,
And I'm feelin more,
than just blue ribband blues.
And his advice,
before I dropped
Was be sincere,
whether you mean it or not,
People waste time, gotta make time
They ain't got no place to go, C'mon now
I try to make time in my own life
But you're moving way too slow to catch up now
And when it comes down to opinion exactly where I stand
And if it comes down to religion I worship my old man
So c'mon now, it's alright
People waste time, gotta make time, Lord
People waste time, gotta make time, Lord
'Cos when I hit the groove I get the feeling
I stand up and show I'm self believing
Lord, Lord
Your trying to swallow up all your dad's pills
But they won't set you free it's a let down
And I'm the only man here can do that dear
Come see and you'll believe it's alright
You see a man's gotta know his limitations
you take it just so far
And if it comes down to the nation
I'll be your superstar
So c'mon now, it's alright
People waste time, gotta make time, Lord
People waste time, gotta make time, Lord
'Cos when I hit the groove I get the feeling
I stand up and I show I'm self-believing
Lord, Lord
Lord, Lord
Poor Mr Brown was so romantic he didn't deserve to die,
Now I've made myself clear twice,
The way he was felled was oh so tragic for him and his Lady wife,
Who said life always turns out right,
I'm sorry to blow your expectations you always said I'd go far,
But you know that times are hard,
There's no need to give no explanations I'll see you back in the bar,
Now can you hear me?
Yeah can you feel me?
Can you feel me?
And I know I've been a let down,
Another coma in a dead town,
And I know I've been a let down,
I've taken the job down memory lane now I don't really rate the pay,
But the view's as clear as day,
I'm been bowing my teeth out with your pliers come back when you've more to say,
Now can you hear me?
Yeah can you feel me?

And I know I've been a let down,
Another coma in a dead town,
And I know I've been a let down,

Poor Mr Brown was oh so tragic he didn't deserve a try,
Now can he hear me?
Yeah can he feel me?

(And I know I've been a let down,
Another coma in a dead town,
And I know I've been a let down,
Another coma in a dead town,)
Can you see me?

Can you see me?
Can you hear me?
Can you see me?
Can you hear me?
Can you see me?
Can you hear me?
Can you see me?
I used to feel I had it all in my hands,
It all came crashing down on me, yeah,
With lipstick on my overall,
And it makes me feel so over awed,
I'm sinking fast,
La, la, la, la, la, la, la India yeah,
La, la, la, la, la, la, la India yeah,
Well, there's just something that I wanna say,
And that I wanna say,
You always feel so beautiful,
I wish there's somewhere I could get away,
That I could get away,
To somewhere warm and beautiful,
Hey, everybody here I am,
I'm the only man, who's ever had a problem,
In the whole world, again,
And lately I've no time for friends as I was before,
I'll be again, don't think too fast,
Well, there's just something that I wanna say,
And that I wanna say,
You always feel so beautiful,
I wish there's somewhere I could get away,
That I could get away,
To somewhere warm and beautiful,
Oh, you're so jealous of the things that I've become,
You know, that you can't come back this time,
You know, that you can't come back this time,
Well, there's just something that I wanna say,
And that I wanna say,
You always feel so beautiful,
I wish there's somewhere I could get away,
That I could get away,
To somewhere warm and beautiful,
Oh, you're so jealous of the things that I've become,
You know, that you can't come back this time,
You know, that you can't come back this time.
(Don't you know that you can't come back this time)
Do you know where I'm coming from?
Well you just don't feel like anyone
Is this the way that you've become?
There's a tree near a patch of grass
We can go and talk about the past
Anything you want to ask
You've got a heart of Gold
You've got a heart of Gold
It's gonna get you nowhere at all
I fear it's gonna get you nowhere at all
In the swell, on a sea of waves
You can find time to appreciate
That I was just a mess that you made
At the dawn of the setting sun
all the seasons mingle into one
And everyone gets blood from stones
You've got a heart of Gold
You've got a heart of Gold
It's gonna get you nowhere at all
Do you ever feel like saving
someone way past saving?
Don't you know we haven't got much time
I wish that I could find the way
to make you stop what doing
You've got a heart of Gold
You've got a heart of Gold
I'm gonna let you know
You've got a heart of Gold
Pretty girl lying in the gutter now,
You shouldn't have been so clever with your mouth,
You lose but you're always satisfied,
Go out then and get yourself some style,
Look at the state you're in,
Oh will you look at the state you're in,
Keep calm and keep it to yourself,
There's no harm if you're left upon the shelf,
You lose and you're always satisfied,
Go out then and get yourself some style,
Look at the state your in,
Oh will you look at the state your in,
I always thought that life would be this way,
I always thought that life would be this way,
Do you think that you're fine,
Cause you spend all your time to enjoy yourself?
Do you think that you're fine,
Cause you try all the time to enjoy yourself?
You're a gutter girl,
Pretty girl they never stand a chance,
We all know you love everything in pants,
You lose and you're always satisfied,
Go out then and get yourself some style,
Look at state I'm in,
Oh will you look at the state I'm in,
I always thought that life would be this way,
I always thought that life would be this way,
Do you think that you're fine,
Cause you spend all your time to enjoy yourself?
When you've used all of mine,
You can spend all your time to enjoy yourself,
It's your game, now play it,
But can you hear what I'm saying?
I always thought that life would be this way,
I always thought that life would be this way,
Do you think that you're fine,
Cause you spend all your time to enjoy yourself,
When you spend all of mine,
Get my clothes to her,
And the only thing I wanted her to take,
But I never said a word,
I'll explain myself so nothing else remains,
I'm on fire, well I let go,
I'm on fire, well I let go,
Burning her down,
It's typical of her,
If there's something wrong, she makes it worse again,
But I'm free as a cage bird,
I'll explain myself so nothing else remains,
I'm on fire, well I let go,
I'm on fire, well I let go,
I'm on fire, well I let go,
I'm on fire, well I let go,
There's a long way to go,
You're so down 'cause you can't get out,
And you never get born again,
Because you feel so down,
I've never said a word,
I'll never try to explain,
That you feel the same thing for her,
So I'll never call your name,
I'm on fire, well I let go,
I'm on fire, well I let go,
I'm on fire, well I let go,
I'm on fire, well I let go,
Fifteen years I've been like this,
Fifteen years I've felt like this,
Well I was trying to find a better life,
You hardly noticed,
Make it good and take your time,
You hardly noticed,
You hardly noticed,
And I was walking along the finest line,
Fifteen years I've been like this,
You hardly noticed,
Have a dream that won't get fixed,
You hardly noticed,
I just feel right out of it,
Cause all things come right back to me,
I'm gonna have to meltdown,
It's my only way,
You're gonna get to know me,
When you smile again,
I sometimes feel I'm left in line but,
I don't want nobody,
I don't need nobody,
Fifteen years I've been like this,
It's some fifteen years I've felt like this,
I just feel right out of it,
All this comes right back to me,
I'm having to meltdown,
It's my only way,
You're gonna get to know me,
When you smile again,
I sometimes feel I'm left in line but,
I don't want nobody,
I don't need nobody,
This little bed in the spare room,
This room feels like a graveyard,
Lay me to bed in the bathroom,
This room feels like a graveyard,
When feel I'm left in line but,
I don't want nobody,
I don't need nobody,
Can anybody possibly,
Try to show me how we're connected,
The best of you's the worst of me,
Then you pull me down like a dead weight,
When every house on every street,
Seems to call my name as I walk on by,
It's a crazy world, I know,
When you're going down,
It's a crazy world, I know,
But I'm sticking round,
I try to find a decent place,
Where I can lay my head, but I can't stay,
There's nothing left for me to say,
But you turn me round, now I'm facing the wrong way,
And as for all your stupid lies,
It can put yourself with the muse and mice,
It's a crazy world, I know,
When you're going down,
It's a crazy world, I know,
But I'm sticking round,
All I should say,
All I should say,
All I should say,
We said yesterday,
We said yesterday,
We said yesterday,
And the sun's gonna say it all,
Roll on yesterday,
Because you're a lonely man,
Roll on yesterday,
When every house on every street,
Seems to call my name, walking by,
The best of you's the worst of me,
And you call my name and you're in my arms,
It's a crazy world, I know,
But I'm sticking round, round,
It's a crazy world, I know,
You may think I'm out of hand,
You may think I don't understand,
Because I walk in another world,
It's one I made up by myself,
You may think I'm underhand,
Don't you know I'm a special man,
I don't say yes,
I wish I didn't mean it,
Well come and take a walk into my world,
I'm here all by myself,
If you wanna come you don't need a reason,
You may think I'm underhand,
But on my beach there's a different sand,
Because I walk in another world,
It's one I made up by myself,
I don't say yes,
Well I feel that I don't really mean it,
Well come and take a walk into my world,
I'm here all by myself,
If you wanna come you don't need a reason,
Settle down this is my world,
I'm here all by myself,
When my kingdom comes you won't need a reason,
I used to think my world was over, (Take a walk into my world)
You smell that faceless take you over, (Take a walk into my world)
I bet you think my world is over, (Take a walk into my world)
Well come and take a walk into my world,
I'm here all by myself,
When my kingdom comes you won't need a reason,
Tell me it's all right,
Tell me it's all right,
Tell me it's all right,
Just say that it's all right,
Tell me it's all right,
Tell me it's all right,
Tell me it's all right,
Just say that it's all right,
Everything's all right,
Everything's all right,
Everything's all right,
Found a little piece of nothing And I moved on Because even nothing feels like something When something's gone
Summertime, on the planet helpless You gotta help yourself Go on and scarlet necklace
Say what you mean, and mean what you say Say what you feel, and feel what you say
Found the head of a marble angel Down Sadness Glade For the sins of our long gone forefathers I've surely paid
You're eyes are blue Just like minted china Keep doing what you do And you'll be none the wiser
you raise me right to the ground
and i cry just like the wind
it ain't nobody's fault
but it's only hurt and there only words
and we float just like the river through this town
with our Cantonese and our livers hanging out
and we both sit here together through the doubts
but it's only hurt and there only words
it's amazing just just now fire fall
from the horse running next to a chain as battalions call
but it's only hurt and there only words
and we float just like the river through this town
with our Cantonese and our livers hanging out
and we both sit here together through the doubts
One morning in Bolivia, the leader of the partisans And two of his companions Were forced to flee the mountains for their lives
Through green and dusty villages they sped along the little roads The peasants smiled and shouted as they hurried by Jesus called out to every one, "Don't think that we are leaving They only tried to frighten us with guns, we shall return"
Continue with your work Continue with your talk You have it in your hands To own your lives, to own your lands
The people smiled and shouted And they ran along a little while Then stood and watched Their hands were restless and empty
The body of Jesus was in the jeep That they blew up before it reached the plane The priest was proud to bless him For what there was of him remaining in the afternoon
Continue with your work Continue with your talk You have it in your hands To own your lives, to own your lands
There is no one who can show you The road you should be on They only tell you, they can show you And then tomorrow they are gone
The smell of oil and incense fill the room in this adobe hut Where on the table lies the body of a man His face is pale and young, his beard is dark and curled Pennies hold his eyelids from the evening light
People from the village those who knew him, those who killed him Stand inside the door, their hands are restless and empty They watch the priest make silent crosses in the air And pray to God inside their hearts for their own souls
Continue with your work Continue with your talk You have it in your hands To own your lives, to own your lands
There is no one who can show you The road you should be on They only tell you, they can show you And then tomorrow they are gone
Continue with your work Continue with your talk You have it in your hands To own your lives, to own your lands
There is no one who can show you The road you should be on They only tell you, they can show you And then tomorrow they are gone
Continue with your work Continue with your talk You have it in your hands To own your lives, to own your lands
There is no one who can show you The road you should be on They only tell you, they can show you And then tomorrow they are gone
It's a bitter pill Everyday they make me swallow it down And it's against my will
Well I spend a lot of time just hanging round waiting In the broken down places that you really wouldn't wanna see Well I spend a lot of time just hanging round hating All the broken down people that you really wouldn't wanna be
And it's so bitter, believe it So won't you come in and feel it
All education's gone Everyday I'll start out in the right and drift into the wrong
Well I spend a lot of time just hanging round waiting In the broken down places that you really wouldn't wanna see Well I spend a lot of time just hanging round hating All the broken down people that you really wouldn't wanna be
And it's so bitter, believe it So won't you come in and feel it
And I realise you think we're antisocial And the reason why's the love you never showed us
And it's so bitter, believe it So won't you come in and feel it
Tell me something I didn't know Tell me something I didn't know Tell me something, tell me something, tell me something I didn't know
Tell me something I didn't know Tell me something, tell me something, tell me something I didn't know
Hey hey, good times You're in so many lives Why don't you walk into mine?
I've waited here for a lifetime But you never showed your face I'm sorry if I've been wasting my time
Chorus: I lied to myself I lie and I know I can't figure out how my story goes But, I lie to myself And there's no Holy Grail So why don't you come and lay your body down on my bed of nails?
Hey hey I'm down Well I'm stuck in a hole and I can't see any way out Remember when we were younger And I showed you what to say And now it seems I've lost that hunger Why don't you lay Why don't you lay Why don't you come and lay your body down?
I thought it would last a lifetime It only lasts a day You've started wasting my time Why don't you come and change the way
Chorus: I lie to myself I lie and I know I can't figure out how my story goes I lie to myself I lie all the time I can't figure out why what's yours ain't mine
I just got back from Palisade Tried so hard to stop these shakes Felt so out of sight, out of my mind
We all go smack through a ferret hole And when I start to lose control Lazy shiver sparkle intertwine
Worlds collide I'm walking through Palisade Really feels like a dream As she's towering over me
We all set sail on our ship of fools New York via Liverpool Measures make our future so divine
We're cap gun hot with a heavy soul Well don't stop now I'm on a roll Threat will never besiege me to recline
I don't know what it is Too many frequencies
Worlds collide I'm walking through Palisade Really feels like a dream As she's towering over me Over me, over me, over me
You'll be right You're walking through Palisade Really feels like a dream Really feels like a dream Really feels like a dream Really feels like a dream It really feels like a dream It really feels like a dream
Standing in the half light sets me off And after all this time, coming here's strange There's still no paper hanging in the hall And if there's carpet down, I'd be amazed As I immerse myself in alcohol She's still walking on eggshells
Oh, when nothings like you want it Don't forget to remember How we both used to feel And when you used to smile at the camera None of those pictures were real
And you're selling up with no regret I'm sorry now those scenarios are dead The person that I need, I haven't met The people that I've met, I'll never need And as I immerse myself in vitriol Well she's still casting those dead spells
Oh, when nothings like you want it Don't forget to remember How we both used to feel And when you used to smile at the camera None of those pictures were real
You have made your choice I hope you stick with it Hunt down a clan Destroy the ground with it Say what you say But some things remain well it's always the same
Don't forget to remember Fight for your right I hope you stick with it Hunt down a clan And destroy the ground with it Say what you say But some things remain Honey, please well, don't forget to remember How we both used to feel And when you used to smile at the camera None of those pictures were real None of this was ever real
La la la la...
Don't forget to remember
La la la la...

They say come back to earth and start getting real yeah I say come back to earth and start getting real, I know I cant

Forgive me, give me one more try. You're not the only one that can make me sigh. Why don't you lift me lift me from the mire? Too busy staring cold at your magic eye.
Well I get this feeling I get this feeling jumbled around, around, around inside my mind
Its easy to crease me like a page Why do I think this way at such a tender age?
You just released me I'm let out of a cage I'm staring at the back from a battered cage
Well I get these feelings I get these feelings rolling around, around, around inside my mind
I take another pill to make me feel better take another pill to make me feel better Slow down
Life comes down hard It takes everything, it won't be long 'Till all this hell surrounds me, hell surrounds me Oh
She eased in time We tried everything, tried as we might But there was no sollution, no sollution at all
And it's crawling in my head I feel it I don't wanna make you mine Like I said, I just wanna need you I don't wanna spend the time, like I said I Just wanna need you
Crawling in my head I feel it
Say, so it goes You were praying to the holy rose Anf she said no surrender, no surrender at all
And it's crawling in my head I feel it I don't wanna make you mine Like I said, I just wanna need you I don't wanna spend the time Like I said, I just wanna need you
Crawling in my head I feel it
it's gonna take some time for all your scars and burns to heal. I'm sitting watching your skin peel. It can while flowers feel the minds beneath your ears Your should've picked another field.
I'm walking round I'm upside down I'm the wrong way around
That I live, and I breathe, that I'm seen Sold Unseen.
What I want To be real. I cant think. Cant feel.
it's gonna take some time for all your hopes and dreams to die Exactly just like mine. I got lost in transit searching for a sign of the times I'm trying to cross the great divide.
I'm walking round I'm upside down I'm the wrong way around
That I live, and I breathe, that I'm seen Sold Unseen.
What I want To be real. I cant think. Cant feel.
There's no light, where you fall, Then a voice screams out and tells you: You've lost it all.. Borrowed time, is the only thing that you own. They'll surround you wearing swanskins, and take you where you don't belong.
You're calling out.. You're in harms way. A gun behind, Your shoulderblades
No way out, of trying to feel.. And i can hear you breathing faintly, and it whispers through the reefs. Oh you're like the sand in a bag full of holes. You're the dew that's evaporating, and i'm the grass that's left alone.
You're calling out, You're in harms way Throwing hand grenades onto heavens' gate.. No way out
