I've got you under my skin
I've got you deep in the heart of me
So deep in my heart that you're really a part of me
I've got you under my skin
I've tried so not to give in
I said to myself this affair won't go so well
But why should I try to resist when baby I know more
than well
I've got you under my skin
I've got you under my skin
And I've got you deep in the heart of me
So deep in my heart that you're really a part of me
I've got you under my skin
I'd sacrifice anything come what might
For the sake of having you near
In spite of a warning voice that comes in the night
And repeats, repeats in my ear
Don't you know fool you can never win
Use your mentality wake to reality
But each time that I do
Just the thought of you makes me stop before I begin
'Cause I've got you under my skin
I've got you under my skin
I've got you deep in the heart of me
So deep in my heart that you're really a part of me
'Cause I've got you under my skin
oooohhhh
ooohhh ooohhh
oooohhhh
ooohhh ooohhh
I've got you under my skin
I've got you deep in the heart of me
So deep in my heart that you're really a part of me
I caught you knockin' at my cellar door
I love you baby can I have some more
Ooohhh the damage done
I hit the city and I lost my band
I watched the needle take another man
Gone, gone the damage done
I sing the song cause I love the man
I know that some of you don't understand
Milk blood to keep from runnin' out
I've seen the needle and the damage done
A little part of it in everyone
For everything I am will never be a bore
And no ones going to get my place
And they'll pretend I'm one but I am never yours
And no ones going to get my place
She passed around again and had seat for sure
And no ones going to get my place
You can't believe in the love around you
You can't discover
You can't recover
You can't believe in the love around you
If you can't recover
You can't discover now
You can't believe in the one you left for dead
For everything I am will never be a bore
And no ones going to get my place
And they'll pretend I'm one but I am never yours
And no ones going to get my place
She passed around again and had seat for sure
You can't believe in the love around you
You can't discover
You can't recover
You can't believe in the love around you
If you can't recover
You can't discover now
Look into my eyes and see my pain
Now that I lost what I thought I'd gained
Sorrowness and fear is all I taste
Now I understand what I had to waste
My love
Look into the fires you left behind
Smoke and ashes sear my mind
Unconcerned and in denial
Clip my wings, put me on trial
My love
Now there's only me
God has made me weak
Now there's only me
Gone is apathy
Look into my eyes and see my pain
Now that I lost what I thought I'd gained
Sorrowness and fear is all I taste
Now I understand what I had to waste
My love
Now there's only me
God has made me weak
Now there's only me
Gone is apathy
History's in the mind of the teller
Truth is in the tale
History's in the mind of the teller
Truth is in the tale, the tale
Truth is in tale
You feed this disease
Which you shelter underneath the scars
And dream of bitter themes
Rendered helpless by those wicked charms
But please don't believe, when I say it's hard to breath
Save me even as you break me
Every time you rape me
Leave me coming all undone
Praise me turn your back and hate me
Every time you waste me keep me underneath your thumb
You bleed on the sheets
Whisper softly how you love the stars
Then plead on your knees
Pledge your promises to do no harm
But please just let me be
I still find it hard to breathe
Save me even as you break me
Every time you rape me
Leave me coming all undone
Praise me turn your back and hate me
Every time you waste me keep me underneath your thumb
Save me even as you break me
Every time you rape me
Leave me coming all undone
Praise me turn your back and hate me
Every time you waste me keep me underneath your thumb
Save me you'll turn your back and break me
Every time you rape me
Well now I found myself
Wish I was someone else
My hands are stained with love
Wish I could take it away
I hid behind the shell
In time the pain will melt
My hands are stained with love
Wish I could fake it
I gave my life away
There's nothing left to say
I gave my life away
You take it in your way
You take it in your way
My selfish enemy
Still has the best of me
Empty and feeling numb
Wish I could take it away
I can't control the need
To weak to not concede
Wish I was deaf and dumb
Wish I could fake it
I gave my life away
There's nothing left to say
I gave my life away
You take it in your way
I gave my life away
There's nothing left to say
I gave my life away
You take it in your way
I can't pretend we're the same
I can't pretend we're the same
I can't pretend we're the same
Oh now I found myself
Wish I was someone else
My hands are stained with love
Wish I could FAKE
I gave my life away
There's nothing left to say
I gave my life away
You take it in your way
I gave my life away
There's nothing left to say
I gave my life away
You take it in your way
Throw your dollar bills
And leave your thrills
All here with me
And speak but don't pretend
I won't defend you anymore you see
It aches in every bone
I'll die alone
But not for you
My eyes don't need to see
That ugly thing
I know it's me you fear
If you want me hold me back
Frail, the skin is dry and pale
The pain will never fail
And so we go back to the remedy
Clip the wings that get you high
Just leave them where they lie
And tell yourself, "You'll be the death of me"
I don't need a friend
I need to mend so far away
So come sit by the fire
And play a while
But you can't stay too long
It aches in every bone
I'll die alone
But not for pleasure
I see my heart explode
It's been eroded by the weather here
If you want me hold me back
Frail, the skin is dry and pale
The pain will never fail
And so we go back to the remedy
Clip the wings that get you high
Just leave them where they lie
And tell yourself, "You'll be the death of me"
Frail, the skin is dry and pale
The pain will never fail
And so we go back to the remedy
Clip the wings that get you high
Just leave them where they lie
And tell yourself, "You'll be the death of me"
Hold your eyes closed
Take me in
Hold your eyes closed
Take me in
Frail, the skin is dry and pale
The pain will never fail
And so we go back to the remedy
Clip the wings that get you high
Just leave them where they lie
And tell yourself, "You'll be the death of me"
Frail, the skin is dry and pale
The pain will never fail
And so we go back to the remedy
Clip the wings that get you high
Just leave them where they lie
As beautiful as fire,
Against the evening sky,
You fuel the lost desire,
I no longer want to die
Take me by the hand,
And see beyond the light
Strip away the fences,
Leave me needing, leave me high
I know you're so, so low
that I can't...
Take me away (x3)
coz I don't wanna lose control
Take me away (x3)
coz I don't wanna lose it all
Relieved of all the pain,
You let me see again,
Delivered from my shame,
Now I am lost for what to say.
Cleanse and pure and weak,
I suffer when I dream,
I need to find a purpose,
I need to feel you needing me.
I know you're so, so low
that i can't...
Take me away (x3)
coz I don't wanna lose control
Take me away (x3)
coz I don't wanna lose it all
Pure and weak,
I suffer when I dream.
Cleansed of me,
I suffer when I dream.
Want you to stay,
You take the pain away,
I want you to stay,
I need you here to keep me sane.
Want you to stay,
You take the pain away,
I want you to stay...
Take me away (x3)
coz I don't wanna lose control
Take me away (x3)
coz I don't wanna lose it all
Want you to stay,
You take the pain away
I want you to stay,
I need you here to keep me sane.
Want you to stay,
You take the pain the away
I want you to stay
Do you feel little nervous now?
Has someone come along, played you for a fool?
If that's what they told you back home, don't worry
Everything's real cool
So what's your countdown, man?
Have you been in this situation before?
It's ten minutes till your glory now
We may never see you anymore
Please, take me to the moon
Please don't worry
I'll be coming home soon
Out past where the world meets the sky
Some things are better left alone
At least that's what they told me back then
Now I'm finding the rest out on my own
So won't you tell me your countdown, man?
If you're tired of playing you're only living fool
Don't you know that your sky is wide open?
Someday your mother will be quite proud of you
Please, take me to the moon
Please don't worry, I'll be coming home soon
Please, take us all, take us all to the moon
Now is the time, we're in no hurry
We'll all be coming home soon
It's everything you'd wish for
But only if you believe, yeah
Please, take me to the moon
Please don't worry, I'll be coming home soon
Please, take us all, take us all to the moon
Now is the time, we're in no hurry
We'll all be coming home soon
The sky is wide open
Mary Mother will be quite proud of you
One with the sunrise
What's that sound you're listening for?
Sounds like you want some more
Going round once or twice
Someone thought it might be nice
But we don't care about
We don't care about it, no, no
What's that sign you're feeling for?
Sounds like you want some more
Funny how took in the day
Same feelings yesterday
But we don't care about
We don't care about it, no, no
What are we looking for?
Darkness and calmness
What are we looking for
Don't you know?
What's that touch you're feeling for?
Looks like you want some more
Funny how it touches you
Once it makes you want it more
But we don't care about
We don't care about it, no, no
What's that feeling you're looking for?
Feels like you want some more
Your pities are taking more
They are taking more
But we don't care about
We don't care about it, no, no
What are we looking for?
Darkness and calmness
What are we looking for
Don't you know?
What are we looking for?
Darkness and calmness
What are we looking for
Don't you know?
No, no, no, no
That's what you're feeling
If you'd be my lady friend
Would we find peace at all?
Please come see my better side
I won't be at [Incomprehensible]
Lisa's gone home, my lady friend
But thankful for everything
If I got to know my lady friend
Maybe she would love me
God, I feel just like lady bug
Think I'll fly away, lady bug
Oh, lady bug, she's on her way
Lights my bed and lights my day
But she won't know that I'm the only one, well
I don't wanna be like Elvis
I don't wanna be like Jim
I just wanna be myself right now
I'll be better off than them
God, I feel just like lady bug
Think I'll fly away, lady bug
Lady bug came all the way
Lights my bed and lights my day
But she won't know that I'm the only one
Lady bug was here today
Was on her own and on her way
But she won't know that I'm the only one
'Coz I don't wanna be like Elvis
I don't wanna be like Jim
I just wanna be myself right now
I'll be better off than them
God, I feel just like lady bug
I wanna see another summer
Not a year long rain
I'll leave my door wide open
I want the freaks to be happy again
When the dogs come with their mouths wide open
To take me away
Yeah, the dogs will come with their mouths wide open
To take me away
Goodbye for a lifetime
Don't wanna say goodbye for a while
I wanna swim in the water
Watch all the faces swim by
I wanna be the solution
But everyone is just the same as I
When the dogs come with their mouths wide open
To take me away
Yeah, the dogs will come with their mouths wide open
To take me away
Goodbye for a lifetime
Never wanna say goodbye for a while
Goodbye for a lifetime
Don't wanna say goodbye for a while
I cross the finish line, it's over
And take a ride on my machine
And everyone is free to follow me
But my direction will never be seen
When the dogs come with their mouths wide open
To take me away
I know those dogs will come with their mouths wide open
To take me away
Goodbye for a lifetime
But don't wanna say goodbye for a while
I'll say goodbye for a lifetime
I don't wanna say goodbye for a while
Never wanna say goodbye
(And then I'll sail my sinking ship into the sun)
Don't wanna say goodbye
(I'll hear the screams and feel the waves from everyone)
Never wanna say goodbye
(In the end when all is done I'll start anew)
Don't wanna say goodbye
You walk into the room with a smile
Only heaven knows what you do to me
And there's no tellin' why you've come at all
'Cause I can't be seen or heard
As the seconds fly, minutes go
Something crazy is comin' over me
It's you I'm missin' and I thought it'd be easier
Like sunshine chasin' clouds away
She walks in the room with a smile
Only heaven knows what she's bringing me
And there's no tellin' why she comes at all
'Cause I can't be seen or heard
As the days fly, and the years go
Somethin' crazy still comin' over me
She's one hit, one smile, after all I'm to blame
But I want more than I thought I would
But then I guess, she came straight into my heart
Now she floats just like the angel from up above
One angel, watching over me
She's my fallin' angel and we're in love
One angel, what you do to me?
One more, been chasin' her day long
And now here I go out again
Said, I'd be there, 'cause I got nowhere to go
I wanna be there, 'cause I got no one
Now she floats just like the angels from up above
One angel, watching over me
She's my fallin' angel and we're in love
One angel, what you do to me
One angel, she's my one angel
If I can't find a way
Could someone ahead of me point towards what I've known
And where I'm supposed to be
My head hurts, it's ill from noise
My favorite place to play
I can't wait to be here for only the seventh time
I don't need to be here anyway
And he won't care who's going to trip and fall
Happened several years back
Missed his chance, and that was all
Who's gonna pick it up, get back out
Push the gas until I get by
If I can't find a way
Could someone ahead of me point towards what I've known
And where I'm supposed to be
Help, help, help, help
Water everywhere, none to drink
My life's on auto pilot, and I can't even think of the last time I fell
For the so called what's her face
Until I get by
If I can't find a way
Could someone ahead of me point towards what I've known
And where I'm supposed to be
Help, help, help, help
Hey man, what I don't remember
Is putting on your glasses
And walking around Mr. K-Mart store
Imitating your silly walk
With your hunched over shoulders
Until I get by
If I can't find a way
Could someone ahead of me point towards what I've known
And where I'm supposed to be
And who I'm supposed to be, yeah
And what I'm supposed to be
Climbing the walls
Safe until the moment, I close my eyes
I'm climbing the walls
Don't know if I can make it through the night
I'm gonna find my way
Someday maybe I'm going to come down
And I'll start all over again
Can't afford this high that's all around me
We all wanna live forever
And I'm starting it all today
I am climbing the walls
I am climbing the walls
And now here I am with a stranger
And I'm faced again with a needle
How am I supposed to relate to you?
Help stop me now if you would
'Cause I could fly from here and make it feel good
And I could rule the world but I'm misunderstood
And I'll start all over again
I can't afford this high that's all around me
We all wanna live forever
We all wanna be something someday
Ready to taste whatever's yet to come
And I'm starting it all today, today, today
I am climbing the walls
I am climbing the walls
Climbing the walls
Don't know if I can make it through the night
We all wanna live forever
We all wanna be something someday
Ready to taste whatever's yet to come
And I'm starting it all today, it all today, today, today
I am climbing the walls
Climbing the walls
Climbing the walls
Talk to me so slow that I can hear you
'Cause what you say makes so much sense to me
And here I'll stand with nothing on my mind
Forgetting everything I'm supposed to say
As I start learning more you'll whisper to me
And tell me what to wish for when I dream the day away
'Cause I know you're the one to teach me something
Like who I am and how to make my way
And when all these things become clear
I'll thank you for making all these things seem so clear, so clear
Take me to your favorite places
Where no one knows me, they all know you
I'll hide my fears and stand right by your side
As the whole world looks up at you
I hope that you stay shaven clean and somewhat sober
The bottle runs like water, but to me it's all the same
Stay with me and be a father
Teach me how to read and write my name
And when all these things become clear
I'll thank you for making all these things seem so clear, so clear
Just when you think I am crazy, shy, and have no feelings
I'll look at you and slowly say your name
I'm thinking someday, maybe, I'll be just like you
And I'll never cry and I'll never be afraid
But not until all these things become clear
And I thank you for making all these things seem so clear
Thank you for making all these things seem so clear, so clear
He can't explain his everything to break his fall
The one who hit his big fat lip, his glasses fall
She's come out right, she's in his sight, on knees he'll crawl
He lost the fight, home for the night, sick of it all
Stop killing me, you've led me on
And I can't take it, take it
Stop giving me your head and all
That you drag with it, with it
She no longer stares and no longer cares about anything
But she can't frown though there's so little left for him
The last to know, she can't explain
Her everything to break his fall
Stop killing me, you've led me on
And I can't take it, take it
Stop giving me your head and all
That you drag with it, with it, with it, with it
Stop killing me, you've led me on, you're killing me
Stop killing me, you've led me on
And I can't take it, take it
Stop giving me your head and all
That you drag with it, with it
Stop killing me, you've led me on
And I can't take it, take it
Stop giving me your head and all
That you drag with it, with it, with it, with it
Sitting in your room alone playing with yourself
Do you like it, really like it?
You're all alone, this cannot be, just you and no one else
Do you like it, you really like it?
Now you're staring at the sky
Wondering how the clouds can be formed
Are the pictures in your head the same drawings from a reverie?
Water in the air and then deformed
Is it changing what you see?
Just stare through your window
Creating your own little show
And passing through the fields and counting the rows
You're counting the rows as you go by
The driving machine pouring water on the stones
Of the California roads you fly by
If you stare too long, if you stare too long through your window
It's easy to cry
Hey Johnny, now who's the boss, how's the weather inside
Do you like it, do you really like it?
Oh, we get away with everything, you see that we're outside
And we like it, we really like it
Why so somber through the glass?
Get up off your butt and come join us
See you play the day away
So please don't get hysterical
I know you can't come out 'cause you're grounded
Just stare through your window
Creating your own little show
Passing through the fields and counting the rows
You're counting the rows as you go by
The driving machines are pouring water on the stones
Of the California roads you fly by
If you stare too long, if you stare too long through your window
It's easy to cry
Oh, but it's over now or has it just begun?
You're still bound by your stupid rules
And all your friends are outside, the clouds in the sky
And they're hoping you'll be there soon
You wanna feel the wave
(Feel the wave)
See the tide
(See the tide)
And stare at the big blue sky
You wanna see the sun
(See the sun)
And the moon
(And the moon)
And to your rules goodbye
You wanna feel the wave
(Feel the wave)
With your eyes
(With your eyes)
To see outside again
You wanna feel alive
Movie klip
SÃ¥ klapper I i takt
jeg si'r til mig selvgodt nok og lykke og held
tonight, all right, I might, just fight
så klapper jeg en knægtså klapper det perfekt
and here we go
SÃ¥ ta'r I til Paris
jeg si'r til mig selv
oh god, mon det er farvel?
oh god, I hope not, don't start, I'm hot
så ta'r jeg ind på Shell
for så gi'r det jo sig selv
and round we go
Jeg ser et movie klip
og tror at du vil slip'andre ind på dig - ah ah
jeg hvisker - ah ah
SÃ¥ ryger I tobak

fuck det, jeg har det godt nok og vel
igen, så læng' I sing this song
så ryger jeg i bund
for du er både sød og ond
I love to long
Jeg ser et movie klip
og tror at du vil slip'andre ind på dig - ah ah
I washed with water and stared at him over again
My silly faces were changing from pale to red
And how did I get here? Now I can't turn my head
Sometimes we hear what's softly spoken yet still seem so afraid
And when we're healing all that's broken
We turn to you and say
"I think you're right where you belong"
I touched my hand upon Elvis and I can't complain
I touched, only felt on his canvas and I'll do it again
Why are we even holding on so long?
And we still touch you barely breathing
You seem to have had it made
We're feeling fairly open but who am I to say?
"I think you're right where you belong"
I'm staring over and over, and over again
And I'm wondering, if I'd ever been here and when?
Hey, Ali also won our hearts long ago
But honestly I, too, move so slowly yet seem to make the grade
And when I'm feeling rather lonely
I turn to you and say
"I think you're right where you belong"
Hey, hello, are you my only friend?
And I'm wondering when I'll see your face again
Hey, hello, are you my only friend?
So now, I'm wondering when I'll see your face again
Hey, hello, are you my only friend?
I'd love to hang with you someday
I'd love to hang with you someday
I'd love to hang with you someday
I'd love to hang with you someday
I'd love to hang with you someday
I'd love to hang with you someday
I'd love to hang with you someday
I'd love to hang with you someday
Welcome to the party, are you having fun?
We're going on a magical ride
Driving to the limit and when we're done
You will not believe your eyes
Hold onto your ticket, let's go to the show
Bring your friends and stand in line
When you get inside it's time to let it all go
And you'll be begging for another ride
It's time to see the sky
The winter and the summer
Come ride with us
And feel the love of one another
Won't you ride my superstation?
Won't you ride my?
Won't you ride my superstation?
Won't you ride my?
Once you come aboard, you can never go
Back to your place in life
Call your mom and dad and say, "I told you so"
You're staying until the end of time
You came to see the sky
The winter and the summer
So shake the hand of
Your new sister and your brother
Won't you ride my superstation?
Won't you ride my?
Won't you ride my superstation?
Won't you ride my?
Won't you ride my superstation?
Won't you ride my?
Won't you ride my superstation?
Won't you ride my?
Won't you ride my superstation?
Won't you ride my?
Won't you ride my superstation?
Won't you ride my?
Pretty lady, she's so hot
Wish that she was by my side
All those feelings just don't fade
Love the color of her hair, she's something
This pretty lady's always on my mind
Well, how much far and how much time?
Where's my lady friend tonight?
She's something
This pretty lady's always on my mind
Now, if she won't mind I'd like to say
She is cool in every way
And I like her by my side
Where we go, we don't ask your name
And we'll try to treat you just the same
Like we did before, this is not the end, my friend
'Coz if you wanna be a star, you'll comeback again
Pretty lady dancing slow
The one I'd like to get to know
She don't love me I can tell
I wish she did 'coz I would tell her somethin'
This pretty lady's always on my mind
Now, if she won't mind I'd like to say
She is cool in every way
And I like her by my side
And now where we go, we don't ask your name
And we'll try to teach you just the same
Like we did before, this is not the end, my friend
'Coz if you wanna be a star, you'll comeback again
We go, we don't ask your name
But we'll try to teach you just the same
Like we did before, this is not the end, my friend
'Coz if you wanna be a star, you'll comeback again
Stone bridge suicide
Lose a life to keep my pride
Walk through, hold my hand
Sister's done all she can
Been far, now we're blind
I can't recall what's on my mind
Sleep some, please don't die
I figured we'd go out tonight
If I can't save you
I'm sure no one will
But I'll never hurt you
If you play along
Hand me the reigns and
I'll steer us through the sunshine
There's only one problem though
Never done this before, never done this before
Hey there, friendly young spaceman
Are they laughing at you?
You know, I can't understand why you don't get along
If you could just see that you're wonderful
They'd think you're wonderful too
I'll sit by your side and I'll help you along
Hey, friendly young spaceman
Just a flash on my radar
Falling from space, man?
I believe in you
Are you the star that I wished upon
Or a flash on my radar?
Hey there, lonely young spaceman
Are you looking for someone?
So, you're still feeling lonely, you're not alone
'Cause we're all passengers here
Trying to make our way home
Trying to make our way home
Hey there, friendly young spaceman
Are they laughing at you?
You know I can't understand why you don't get along
If you could just see that you're wonderful
They'd think you're wonderful too
I'll sit by your side and I'll help you along
Hey, friendly young spaceman
Just a flash on my radar
Falling from space, man
I believe in you
Are you the star that I wished upon
Or a flash on my radar?
Hey there, lonely young spaceman
Are you looking for someone?
Hey, friendly young spaceman
Just a flash on my radar
Falling from space, man
I believe in you
Are you the star that I wished upon
Or a flash on my radar?
Hey there, lonely young spaceman
Are you looking for someone?
Are you looking for someone?
Are you looking for someone?
Are you looking for someone?
Are you looking for someone?
Are you looking for someone?
Are you looking for someone?
Come, lay down next to me
We'll feed our desires do whatever may come
And we'll get high, watch all the colors are bleed into one
With all the sounds, the beautiful sounds
Is it me or is my imagination running wild?
Some things are not what they seem, no
You know, I'd ask you to come into my world for a while
But I know it's only a dream
I was looking down into you
Alone as you slept without a care in the world
Just you and I, together forever but we lost what we found
In all the sounds, the beautiful sounds
Is it me or is my imagination running wild?
Some things are not what they seem, no
You know, I'd ask you to come into my world for a while
But I know it's only a dream
Why do you think you're over
All the people who together held your hand?
Now, I know, I'll see you forever more
As I drown in sleep and dream of you instead
Is it me or is my imagination running wild?
But some things are never, never, ever what they seem
You know, I'd ask you to come into my world for the night
But I know it's only a dream, yeah
I never need to wake
Now, I never want to end this sleep
Who is watching over, who is watching over you?
Who is watching you tonight?
Is it me or is my imagination running wild?
Is it me or is my imagination running wild?
Is it me or is my imagination running wild?
I'd sing a song for you, you know I'd even change my tune
I'd pull you up when you drown in the water, baby
Jump the highest mountain, swim across the ocean blue
Could never imagine you with another, baby
Am I having a breakdown? Am I going insane?
You do me then leave for another girl
I wake up every morning crying you're not there
I get the feeling that you're looking for a new beginning
You change your mind every minute
One day you want me then the next you leave, it's never-ending
I'm getting used to it
Don't tell me how to get to you, to get back in your heart
You make it hard, should I even bother? Baby
My tongue is tied in two and I believe I need another drink
I know you love to watch me sink to the bottom, baby
But I'm having a breakdown, am I going insane?
You do me then leave for another girl
I wake up every morning crying you're not there
I get the feeling that you're looking for a new beginning
You change your mind every minute
One day you want me then the next you leave, it's never-ending
I'm getting used to it, I'm getting used to it
I don't care what you do now
I don't care what you do now
I get the feeling that you're looking for a new beginning
You change your mind every minute
One day you want me then the next you leave, it's never-ending
I'm getting used to it
You say you want me now
But when you need me, just forget it
When two and two are five
You're gonna go to work like any other day
But things might be much different
Your God might be a vengeful one
Your desk might catch on fire
The church will hold a picnic,
and Jesus and Elvis will get in free
When two and two are five
They'll change the world, make the faithful pay
The trees of the field and maybe the lilies -
They will comfort you
But in the twinkling of an eye there will be nothing,
Two shakes of somebody's tail - no still small voice
Meanwhile I'm gonna sleep all day,
get half drunk each night
I'll be the nothing that is, I'll be the nothing that will be
I'm gonna sleep all day, get half drunk each night
I'll be the nothing that is, I'll be the nothing that will be
And in the darkest corners between conscience and faith
(Lord get my room ready, nothing is adding up)
We'll meet the terrible angel
Straddling our pitiful fathers
Meanwhile I'm gonna sleep all day,
get half drunk each night
I'll be the nothing that is, I'll be the nothing that will be
I'm gonna sleep all day, get half drunk each night
I'll be the nothing that is, I'll be the nothing that will be
Even when I was a little girl -- even then
No one could tell me why, no one convinced me,
Through the cathedral,
The high windows spilling crimson light
Cross the deceived ones, no evidence of grace in their eyes
But when I saw the father, shaken, spent like spare change,
On his knees and under the gun
Then I wondered what would become of me
You might have told me that love is not enough
You might have lied and told me that it was,
The gilded cage and the holy three
Don't tell the truth as far as I can see
And in the end you choose someone, something, and
Others fade from view
And the world outside your lives exhausts you
Therein lies the ritual, you harbor no curiosity for the
High windows, the crimson light, or the deceived ones -
Dying randomly
But when I saw the father, shaken, spent like spare change,
On his knees and under the gun
Then I wondered what would become of me
You might have told me that love is not enough
You might have lied and told me that it was,
The gilded cage and the holy three
Oh Louisa, oh my darling,
It wasn't supposed to be this way
Who'd have thought, after all
It wasn't supposed to be this way
But I was wrong, (and here is where you have to
imagine the rest)
WRONG
I was wrong, (It's different than words now)
On a missing person afternoon
It's a Monet, like a daydream
Glowing in the wandering light
You had an angle, I had mine
Needles in the haystack
But I was wrong (and here is where you have to
imagine the rest)
WRONG
I was wrong, (It's different than words now)
On a missing person afternoon
I imagine where you are, I imagine what you can see
I imagine where you are, what you can see
I'll remember you, but I imagine
Almost in the same breath
The colors fade, in the dusk
You pull your sweater close around you
I was wrong, (there's a mystery on the road tonight)
WRONG
I was wrong, (and either way it's a leap of faith)
On a missing person afternoon,
Missing person afternoon
I know, you'll do it, you'll do it for this
One day you'll think he's the one
You'll follow him over oceans, he'll promise you the world
He will parade you around the seas
He'll murmur his affection, his devotion
He will convince you to leave the deep
He'll promise you the world
(But) if you'd do it anyway, why would you do it for love?
If you'd do it anyway, why would you do it for love?
If you'd do it anyway, why would you do it for love?
Do it for...
love..
('cause you want the ocean and not what he's giving you)
you want the ocean and not what he's giving you
you want the ocean and not what he's giving you...
Your legs will go first, to needles and pins,
and then your voice
You promised him you'd come back forever
he promised you the world
If you'd do it anyway, why would you do it for love?
If you'd do it anyway, why would you do it for love?
If you'd do it anyway, why would you do it for love?
If you'd do it anyway, why would you do it for love?
Do it for...
If I were blind
Would it all come down to this?
Would you still love me?
And if I were wrong
Would it still be the same fade to black
As I reach for you?
Falling, falling away, I am falling
Falling away from love again
If there were time
To say everything and no more
Although it's indistinct
And if there were days
And nights alone, again
Would you still reach for me?
Falling, falling away, I am falling
Falling away from love again
Because if you were blind
It would all come down to this
I would still love you
And if you were wrong
It would still be
The same fade to black
'Cause I am falling, falling in love, I am falling
In the gloaming, oh my darling
When the lights are soft and low
And the quiet shadows, falling,
Softly come and softly go
When the trees are sobbing faintly
With a gentle unknown woe
Will you think of me and love me,
As you did once, long ago
In the gloaming, oh my darling
Think not bitterly of me
Though I passed away in silence
Left you lonely, set you free
For my heart was tossed with longing
What had been could never be
It was best to leave you thus, dear,
Best for you, and best for me
In the gloaming, oh my darling
When the lights are soft and low
Will you think of me, and love me
This is the last time, this time I will win
It took a long time to gain this weight,
It will take a long time to lose it again
I will have only water for a week, then maybe carrots,
and celery, and if I lose then Sunday I'll have brown rice
Because someone will adore me when my ribs show clearly
and I'm thin even when I sit down
Someone will admire my gorgeous arms and legs
when I'm only one hundred pounds
I bought a doctor's scale on sale today
It takes up half the bathroom, and it's really ugly,
but I know it's going to help me reach my goal
I get so dizzy when I stand up fast, and I don't feel like
dancing but I know I'm gonna do it this time, for sure
Now I walk past the fatsos eating doughnuts,
with cream filling, icing, jimmies, and I am so glad I am not
like them
Because someone will adore me when my ribs show clearly
and I'm thin even when I sit down
Someone will admire my gorgeous arms and legs
when I'm only one hundred pounds
Last night I dreamed I ate a chocolate cake, and when I
woke up I was sure it was true so I weighed myself just to
make sure and drank a diet coke
Me and Rex took the car, ha, ha, stay home, stay
We're gonna run over all the neighborhood cats
'Cause they tease us from the other side of the fence
We're gonna go in the swamp and you can't hose us off
Dog dreams, dog dreams
Please don't wake us up
No bad dog, no stay
No basement, no way
No choke chain, no dry food
No fetch game, no, no, no
No bad dog, no stay
No basement, no way
No choke chain, no dry food
No sit, lie down, roll over, shame
Me and Rex took the car, ha, ha, stay home, stay
We're gonna go through everyone's garbage
Have the dinners we deserve
We're gonna find some great smelling bitches
And see if they meant what they said from the end of the leash
Dog dreams, dog dreams
Please don't hose us off
No bad dog, no stay
No basement, no way
No choke chain, no dry food
No fetch game, no, no, no
No bad dog, no stay
No basement, no way
No choke chain, no dry food
No sit, lie down, roll over, shame
No bad dog, no stay
No basement, no way
No choke chain, no dry food
No fetch game, no, no, no
No bad dog, no stay
No basement, no way
No choke chain, no dry food
No sit, lie down, roll over, shame
Bad dog, bad dog
Bad dog, bad dog
Bad dog, bad dog
I'd settle for less but I'd hold you accountable
Knock on your door but I wouldn't take "no" for a ride
A month in the country, a day by your side
Two years in the forest, I can't see the trees if you hide
And if I forgot, could you make me remember
The piece of myself that I left winding by
It's on the top current of love's final breeze
There at the still point,
That's where I'll be
We would find hindsight at the edge of the world,
Love at the end of indifference
We'd be the lovers that time could forget
Distance would forge us, make us stronger in the end
And if you forgot, could I make you remember
The piece of yourself that you gave long ago
It's on the top current of love's final breeze
There at the still point,
That's where I'll be
At the still point, at the still point
At the still point of desire
At the still point, the still point
At the still point of desire
At the still point, at the still point
At the still point of desire
We'd be forever, a month in the country,
A day by your side, two years in the forest
A decade of hopeful, a terrible leap,
When it all comes out in the wash
I will love you
I will love you
At the still point, at the still point,
At the still point of desire
At the still point, at the still point
At the still point of desire
At the still point, the still point
At the still point of desire
At the still point, at the still point
Amelisa, it's May and blossoms 1957, single, but bold
I see you, belle of the ball and
hometown sweetheart, gifted
I want to tell you seize this day,
Let someone else go tend tradition,
Take what's yours
No one else can tell your fire, paint with your words,
sing with your voice,
Take what's yours
Amelia, I see you all in white and lovely, blinded, by love
And he too, is beautiful, and young, and blind
I want to tell you he's the wrong man, you'll look
Back
You were told that this is what you want, but it will hurt you
(You can't live for someone else)
But you live
For me
For me
For me
He would do things to make your life easier
but never talk to you - know you at all
You were his showpiece,
charming as you entertained all his fancies
I wish I could have seized that day and torn it
from your history
(For me)
Now it comes down to a life that might have soared
(for me)
But I can tell your fire, paint with your words,
sing with your voice
Nobody can take what's mine
From me
From me
From me
Sometimes I'm happy, mostly I'm not,
I like to be alone a lot
And I don't know how I got this way,
Everything around me seems so crazy
My life is a rented hotel for the poor
The rooms are bare, and I'm afraid to close the door
But I keep the light on in the hall
And the perfume of the lover on my hands
And in a twinkling we will all be changed
And I'll wait for you, and I'll wait for you
In a twinkling we will all be changed
And I'll wait for you, I'll wait for you
'Cause they'll come barefoot, little angels,
Barefoot, little angels, and take us away from here
They'll come barefoot, little angels,
Barefoot, little angels, and take us away from here
(The scene is set and the light is on,
Set, and the light is on in the barefoot ballroom
The scene is set and the light is on,
Set, and the light is on in the barefoot ballroom)
Sometimes she comes at a quarter to two,
Wearing her love like a costume
She takes it off, she's barefoot,
Sometimes I remember this dance,
Mostly not
And in a twinkling we will all be changed
And I'll wait for you, and I'll wait for you
In a twinkling we will all be changed
And I'll wait for you, I'll wait for you
'Cause they'll come barefoot, little angels,
Barefoot, little angels, and take us away from here
They'll come barefoot, little angels,
Barefoot, little angels, and take us away from here
(The scene is set and the light is on,
Set, and the light is on in the barefoot ballroom
The scene is set and the light is on,
My mother moved the furniture when
she no longer moved the man
We thought nothing of it at the time
She painted walls, painted smiles,
Checked herself in the mirror one more time,
Then yoked her heart to a whim
But the history of desire is such that just one word -
just one touch could send it reeling
She passed go again and again
never collected her two hundred
Or landed on the purple with the Jones'
She wanted to be a different person
She sat down, finally, and he walked away
He walked away
She listened to the angel - she said to flatter
She said to coo - she said it won't matter
I thought I was by myself, but I cannot kill
the angel in the house
Even in my wildest heart, I cannot kill
the angel in the house
the angel in the house
the angel in the house
You hang on to the pieces of the game that don't talk back
Don't sneak around
Movable objects, but, where were we?
Don't let anything happen
We're back to the wheel, back to fire, onto the high wire
'Cause she listened to the angel - she said to flatter
She said to coo - she said it won't matter
I thought I was by myself, but I cannot kill
the angel in the house
Even in my wildest heart,
I cannot kill the angel in the house
the angel in the house
the angel in the house
the angel in the house
the angel in the house
the angel in the house
Where'd you get that dress?
Where'd you learn to walk like that?
Don't talk back
Tell me where you've been - maybe I don't want to know
Oh, Lord, why me?
You were so much, so much mine, now I reach for you
and I cannot find you
So much, so much mine, now I reach for you
and I cannot find you
So much mine
So much mine
So much mine
You know you've got my hands,
and you've got your father's eyes -
lovely, bold eyes
I know that it's not fair, but things aren't always what they
seem - and now I worry so -
Where you'll lay your head, where you'll sleep tonight,
Way up high, why, oh why can't I
Someone's pillow's cold, someone loved you so,
And bluebirds sang, "There's no place like home"
(They sang)
Where's the heart in me that made the one in you so cold,
Please don't go
'Cause I know where you got that dress, I know where you
learned to walk like that
'Cause you were so much, so much mine
now I reach for you
and I cannot find you
So much, so much mine
now I reach for you and I cannot find you
(Where you'll lay your head, where you'll sleep tonight,
Way up high, why, oh why can't I
Someone's pillow's cold, someone loved you so,
And bluebirds sang, "There's no place like home"
They sang)
So much mine
So much mine
So much mine

Evil in my head, in my head, inside this private hell
I'm not feeling very well

Frustration, disgust, aggravation, disgust, mental hell
I'm not feeling very well
I'm not feeling very well
Day, day after day, it never changes, always the same
Day after day, day after day, day after
Demons in my head, in my head, inside this private hell

I was sitting by the phone
I was waiting all alone
Baby by myself I sit and wait and wonder about you
It's a dark and dreary night
Seems like nothing's going right
Won't you tell me honey how can I go on here without
you?
Yes I'm down and feeling blue
And I don't know what to do, oh-oh
Ring, ring, why don't you give me a call?
Ring, ring, the happiest sound of them all
Ring, ring, I stare at the phone on the wall
And I sit all alone impatiently
Won't you please understand the need in me
So, ring, ring, why don't you give me a call?
So, ring, ring, why don't you give me a call?
You were here and now you're gone
Hey did I do something wrong?
I just can't believe that I could be so badly mistaken
Was it me or was it you?
Tell me, are we really through?
Won't you hear me cry and you will know that my heart
is breaking
Please forgive and then forget
Or maybe darling better yet, oh-oh
Ring, ring, why don't you give me a call?
Ring, ring, the happiest sound of them all
Ring, ring, I stare at the phone on the wall
And I sit all alone impatiently
Won't you please understand the need in me
So, ring, ring, why don't you give me a call?
So, ring, ring, why don't you give me a call?
Oh-oh, ring, ring, why don't you give me a call?
his is my life
This is my time
Show me the light and I'll go there
Give me the wine
Bitter and sweet
And a little bit of bread, that's all I need
No no, I don't want to go from Zanadu
I think I'll leave it all to you
This is my life and I don't care
This is my street
Oh you restless feet
Carry me on to anywhere
Take the fear
Take it away
And give me some hope for one more day
I saw a ghost behind the door
When the kids were coming home from the war
With broken dreams and nothing more
I heard a woman singing her song
And it was good, warm and strong
She made cry, I don't know why
There's a woman singing her song
And it was good, warm and strong
She makes cry, I don't know why
I don't want to bring you down
I think it's good to be here
This is my life and I don't care
This is my life
This is my time
Show me the light and I'll go there
This is my life
This is my time
We are the revolution and the institution
We are the sons of God and you're demise
We'll cut loose the dogs We're gonna burn your boots
We're gonna start another war
We're right
You're wrong
the end justifies the means
We are the next invasion and the resistance too
We are the wing commander
We are the henchmen
We are the cast of thousands
We are the civil war
And we're about to save your soul
We're right
You're wrong
the end justifies the means
And we know and we feel
We've got the rights on our side
Time will tell you will see
We've got the rights on our side
We're the detonator
We are the bomb squad
We're on every side we're anyone
We are the insurrection
We are the front brigade
We are the prisoner and the guard
We're right
You're wrong
No one's at your service,
you've got to help yourself
Trip it up and keep 'em down,
we all got the same chance
The system of corruption
will get it your way
No problem with the money,
when you're not the one who pays
What you are is what you get
and you got what you deserve
What the hell did you expect?
What you are is what you get
We're all born equal,
according to the rich
Dreams are not enough,
if you're going for the top
What you are is what you get
and you got what you deserve
What the hell did you expect?
What you are is what you get
Doubt is the brother of shame
Yeah! I did eat some of that pig,
Go ahead!
Smash and grab
(Payday my favourite day of the month.
I'm a big man on payday)
Pull yourself together
Crawl back to the top
They're gonna kick you down again
They're never gonna stop
What you are is what you get
and you got what you deserve
What the hell did you expect?
What you are is what you get
What you are is what you get
and you got what you deserve
What the hell did you expect?
Oh mama, can't you tell
Oh mama, can't you tell
If you want my love will you ring my bell
Oh mama, can't you tell
Oh mama, can't you tell
If you want my love will you ring my bell
I know it's written in my face
It's time for us to find a secret place
I've got things to tell
If you ring my bell
Forget your sorrows and lonely nights
What time tomorrow will be alright?
I hope you feel the same
I wanna call your name
Oh mama, can't you tell
Oh mama, can't you tell
If you want my love will you ring my bell
I'm so angrious, I'm longing for
I kiss your face and close the door
I've got things to tell
If you ring my bell
Forget your sorrows and lonely nights
What time tomorrow will be alright?
I hope you feel the same
I wanna call your name
Oh mama, can't you tell
Oh mama, can't you tell
If you want my love will you ring my bell
Oh mama, can't you tell
Oh mama, can't you tell
If you want my love will you ring my bell

Oh mama, can't you tell
Oh mama, can't you tell
Ring my bell - (If you want my love will you ring my
bell)
Oh mama, can't you tell
Oh mama, can't you tell
If you want my love will you ring my bell
Oh mama, can't you tell
Oh mama, can't you tell
If you want my love will you ring my bell
If you want my love, want my love
Ring my bell
If - If you want my love, want my love
Ring my bell
Ah! - Ring my bell, Ring my bell, Ring my bell!
I'[G]ve been[Cadd9] away for 50 days now
I'[Cadd9]m br[G]oken and I wanna go home
I haven't seen you in a long, long time
I'm making love to you on the phone
Another hotel in another town
There's nothing here to see at all
Too many miles on too many roads
and too many long distance calls
Chorus: I wanna go[Em]home
[D]I wanna[C] go home
[G]I'm tired of travelling
[D]tired of all the same roads
[C]tired of everything
Another day another week
going up and down these roads
I'm looking through the windshield
but I've seen it all before
I fill my head with fantasies
to take the edge off the days
But I'm out of stories and things to tell
'cause everything looks the same
Chorus
Going to the same old places
time after time
Sometimes I wonder
if this is what it's all about
Staring at a picture of you
wishing I were back home
I need something bad right now
bad to make it feel good
don't run away, so inclined to take the easy way
don't cause a scene, don't decide you are through
you're not so tough, things are rough, find a better way
something gets a hold of me when my head gets inside of you
call you, this is for you
i will see you from a new view
new tokyo is calling you
you've got a way that distracts me from my everyday
not much to say, on our way, so let us through
we're not afraid of the harmful things that you might say
you might be right, we might be wrong
be strong, get ready to...
we're not giving up
even after heavy casulties
things are looking up
songs are catching like it's some disease
when you wake up on sunday morning
when you wake up but i'm still asleep
there is something that you抮e tired of hiding
there is something that you抮e trying to keep
i'm not saying that it抯 time to go home
i'm not saying that it抯 time you move on
everyone抯 to blame
we抮e all the same
and it抯 just a game
you don抰 seem to give damn about me
you don抰 even want to set me free
i am tired of this situation
i am tired will you let me be
everybody
everyone
needs that someone
anyone
to turn to when this world gets old
it抯 all downhill from here you know?
this is all over now
i'll leave and you抣l be a memory
when you say goodbye
i'll leave and you抣l be a memory
you don't have to run away cause you're ok with me
and you don't have to be afraid cause it's alright with me
i have only myself to blame
it's a shame, is it true?
all the clues point to me, is it true?
that's not me now i'm through
i would have guessed you would have passed this test
so i confess to all this mess
i know what i've been told and that"s how the story goes
everyday people call themselves emo
it's just a bad disguise is it something hidden in their eyes
