I bet he feels like an elephant
Shaking his big grey trunk for the hell of it
You know, that you're dreaming about being loved by him
Too bad your chances are slim
And it's not like Mr Shock to get shy
When my eskimo is on top
He's got friends but you get the feeling
That they wouldn't care too much if he'd just disappear
Here comes
He pulled the mirrors off his cadillac
Because he doesn't like it looking like he looks back
Somebody grabbed his collar
He cried the whole way home
This could be the day that we push through
It could be the day that all our dreams come through
For me, turning at the end just to look
I, am too terrified to try our best
Just to let the wind fade in, and you can't it guess
Life obsessed
Let us dance you wake up mystified
Oh I feel so... in my sleep
Let the... step in too closer...
... could this be, yeah
Do you let the... feel
The... is changing,
And as my thing I...
I can't run,
My voice turning...
My hand just sitting in and
Whoa, and I'm getting closer
Will I ever get up
Does it even matter
Do I really need this?
Who shall I command now?...
Whoa, and I'm getting closer
Will I ever get up
Does it even matter
Do I really need this?
Nothing ever changes
No matter how long you do your thing
Look the same,
Please don't get answers from eyes
You know that mine can't lie
Quite as well as yours
Just let the spare moment flow
Rounding steps as I go
Through the open doors
Please don't deflate from a sigh
I'd hold still every time but I'd start to shake
I wander around for days
Wondering what I'll say
When they want the truth
You will never know how hard I try
To keep from waning while waiting at the start
The depth of every touch is real as you need
But words don't do any favors for me
You will never know how hard I try
To keep from waning while waiting at the start
The depth of every touch is real as you need
But words don't do any favors for me
You will never know how hard I try
To keep from waning while waiting at the start
The depths of every touch is real as you need
But words don't do any favors for me
You will never know how hard I try
To keep from waning while waiting at the start
The depth of every touch is real as you need
But words don't do any favors for me
You will never know how hard I try
To keep from waning while waiting at the start
The depth of every touch is real as you need
When I get up I've dreamt too long
Everything else is half as strong
I could see though, outside my head
They got it right, I got it wrong
I've let too much of it slide through my fingers
Fear that has fouled all the love I could bring her
Shook off her optimistic hand
I am too fixed on what I've planned
Who is the one who can't let go?
I will miss out, hell, don't I know
I've let too much of it slide through my fingers
Fear that has fouled all the love I could bring her
I've let too much of it slide through my fingers
Fear that has fouled all the love I could bring her
I've let too much of it slide through my fingers
Fear that has fouled all the love I could bring her
But don't remind me of home, there's everywhere I'd rather go
It's true that some things have to change
And don't remind me of home or I might notice where I am
It's true that some things have to change
I know some things have to change
It's true that some things have to change
I know some things have to change
And gazing out the window as I ascend into the sky
But I'm the one who's left behind
I'm the one who's left behind
There is nothing that is safe
I know some things have to change
Yeah, I do, yeah, I do
Now that all these walls are down,
Wonder what I'll tell you
You can do what you want, as long
as the cotton is high and strong,
We should be like this all the time,
for the Earth, one day, will die.
Count the number of beings you are,
I could never see your eyes
And I can't see past the lies
Which is why I still run for us
In the meantime, here comes the
I know you like your own kind
And that pulls me out of line
Which is why I get drunk to make up for a long time
Why won't you make up your mind?
Give me a sign
Why won't you make up your mind?
Give me a sign
Am I wasting my time
Living in my head?
You'll be sorry when I
Make up mine instead
Why won't you make up your mind?
Give me a sign
Why won't you make up your mind?
Give me a sign
Am I wasting my time
Living in my head?
You'll be sorry when I
Senses taking over, thought to set me free
I tried to get up but it was pouring down on me
Keeps on getting deeper, desperately to be,
Said there's some guy interested in dragging it out of me
Ooooh, it's what I need, ooooh
Tell me you're in love to let it show
Just (?) magic, I was far enough to see it
Better than to get just what a stranger did to me
Is it 'cause I love, is it 'cause I don't, well, I just don't know
Keep on asking me, darling, let me see it, keep on asking
Shifting, shifting, shifting aloud
Like it makes so much difference to me
Huffing, puffing, marching around
Like I know how much better it should be
I know it looks like I disagree
Nine tenths of the time
But I don't really mind
But I don't really mind
But I don't really mind
But I don't really mind
Childhood puppy is old and gruff
Your mother wants to give him away
Pillar of strength was lifted off his deathbed
Three weeks ago today
But I don't really mind
But I don't really mind
But I don't really mind
But I don't really mind
But I don't really mind
But I don't really mind
But I don't really mind
But I don't really mind
But I don't really mind
But I don't really mind
But I don't really mind
But I don't really mind
But I don't really mind
But that's only when I think of you,
Some vision that I hold on to,
You know it's everything I do,
You know it's everything I do.
Can almost stand competing with the others
Can almost hear the fun that I should be having.
Instead of all this dreaming...
But it's only when I think of you,
The mover I could turn into,
There must be something I can do,
There must be something I can do.
But I just don't know
How to feel right,
A beautiful girl
Is wasting my life,
I'm playing a part
As somebody else,
While trying so hard
To be myself.
I just need to hear
Somebody say,
That this will make sense one day.
I guess I'm alright
But they're all doing so well,
What I would give
To be under that spell...
You'll know soon
You'll know soon
You'll know soon
You'll know soon
You'll know soon
In so many ways
I'm somebody else
I'm trying so hard
To be myself.
I just need to hear
Somebody say
That this will all make
Sense one day.
Well it's getting late
I'd better go
I made it this far
Lazy bones and no concern sees forty one mosquitoes flying in formation,
I'm alright, but my pet cockroach died of starvation.
Sleep till late, I won't mind if we do nothing today.
Come and stay, bring your friends, who needs floor space anyway?
So do you not want me to come over?
So do you not want me to come over?
Not much we know
So off we go.
Ahhh Ahhh
The other side of the land,
they like my brain,
they don't waste time
and they don't wait.
They can do what they want,
as long as I don't have to concentrate.
Broken drums, thriving dreams, not much else between these walls.
One more, I am already gone but duty calls.
Not much we know,
So off we go...
Please don't get answers from eyes
You know that mine can't lie
Quite as well as yours
Just let the spare moment flow
Rounding steps as I go
Through the open doors
Please don't deflate from a sigh
I'd hold still every time but I'd start to shake
I wander around for days
Wondering what I'll say
When they want the truth
You will never know how hard I try
To keep from waning while waiting at the start
The depth of every touch is real as you need
But words don't do any favours for me
You will never know how hard I try
To keep from waning while waiting at the start
The depth of every touch is real as you need
But words don't do any favours for me
You will never know how hard I try
To keep from waning while waiting at the start
The depths of every touch is real as you need
But words don't do any favours for me
You will never know how hard I try
To keep from waning while waiting at the start
The depth of every touch is real as you need
But words don't do any favours for me
You will never know how hard I try
To keep from waning while waiting at the start
The depth of every touch is real as you need
Out of this zone, try to deceive, I'm so alone, nothing for me
I guess I'll go home, try to be sane, try to pretend all of it happened
Oh, there's no tree, lonely old me, whoopsee daisy, I thought I was happy, oh
Out of this zone, now that I see, I don't need them and they don't need me
I guess I'll go home, try to be sane, try to pretend all of it happened
There's no need to be, lonely old me, whoopsee daisy, I thought I was happy, oh
Ah, why won't they talk to me? (I thought I was happy)
Ah, why won't they talk to me? (I thought I was happy)
Ah, why won't they talk to me? (I thought I was happy)
Ah, why won't they talk to me? (Aaaah-aaaah...)
Ah, why won't they talk to me?
But I don't really care about it anyway
I wouldn't listen to a word any others say
They just talk about themselves all day
One day they'll be standing beside me
Ah, why won't they talk to me?
Ah, why won't they talk to me?
Ah, why won't they talk to me?
Ah, why won't they talk to me?
Said you wouldn't be home late tonight
I gave up waiting at seventeen past midnight
Now my only company's a half full glass of wine
You leave me no choice but to plot my revenge.
It's been so long since I held your hand, you don't know how hard it can be.
I Thank god I've been blessed with a patient mind
Because what I want to happen won't happen in a very long time.
Said the voice from afar:
Don't you know it doesn't
have to be so hard? Waiting for
everyone else around to agree,
might take too long
When it won't be so hard,
(it won't be so hard)
Well it's true, yes, but you
won't get far telling me
that you are all you're meant
to be, when the one from my
dream is sitting right next
to me and I don't know
what to do
Oh alter ego.
Get them to love you,
while they may depending
on your words and wealth,
the only one who's really
judging you is yourself.
Nobody else.
If I could part,
it wouldn't be so hard.
Well it's true yes, but you
won't get far telling me that
you are all you're meant to
be when the one from my
dream is sitting right next
to me and I don't know
what to do.
Nothing that has happened so far has been anything we could control
I have just been waiting for the perfect time to tell you I don't know
Maybe I'm just reading into it a little deeper than I should
We would make it easy, we would take it slowly if only we could
- Hey, what are you doing out here?
- You're thinking about everything, aren't you?
- I know it's crazy, but just don't think of it like that
- Nothing has to mean anything
- Come on, come back inside
Elodie, look at me unless you're trying to hurt me
Heavy blow, down I go, now I just want to let go
Is it right? Is it wrong? I don't know, it's not the cause I'm fighting for
Anymore but it sucks to keep on running
Eventually, there will be a time for clearer thinking
For now I weep, can't get to sleep, I try to hold a good feeling
I just get one, here it comes, there it goes and we just might
Lose the fight, yeah, but it's alright, it wasn't our decision
Nothing that has happened so far has been anything we could control
I have just been waiting for the perfect time to tell you that I know
Every man is happy until happiness is suddenly a goal
You're always trying
to hide in the night
and blink at the door
You'd let it go
though you'll never know
when it all may be gone
we close our heart
we shut down our world
to rumors you know
Tore down the shield
your future reveals
where the feel's yet to go
You've gotta open up your mind and feel the love in your life
You've got to open up your heart feel the love in your life
You've gotta open up your mind and feel the love in your life
You've got to open up your heart feel the love in your life
love in your lifer heart
And feel love in the light
They won't decide
watch time glassing by
then float away
you cant get ill
just typewrite on in
to the rows we could play
dissatisfied
you always have tried
to divert with goodbyes
though what you seek
who knows it could be
right in front of your eyes
You've gotta open up your mind and feel the love in your life
You've got to open up your heart feel the love in your life
You've gotta open up your mind and feel the love in your life
You've got to open up your heart feel the love in your life
love in your life
I wanted her, I wanted her
But she doesn't like the life that I lead
She doesn't like the life that I lead
Doesn't like sand stuck on her feet
Or sitting around smoking weed
I must seem more like a friend in need
And I boast that it is meant to be
But in all honesty I don't have a hope in hell
I'm happy just to watch her move
And in all honesty I don't have a hope in hell
I'm happy just to watch her move
And she doesn't like the friends that I make
Doesn't make friends for friendship's sake
She just gets bored sitting by the lake
Her soul won't surface and her heart won't ache
And I boast that it is meant to be
But in all honesty I don't have a hope in hell
I'm happy just to watch her move
And I thought they could cure his disease
But in all honesty he didn't have a hope in hell
Everything you ever told me
could have been a lie, we
may never have been in love.
Stuck on thinking that there is
always something to lose,
or a hit from above.
I don't need what I'm holding on to.
I wish I knew.
But meanwhile
Fluctuations are aching my
soul, Expectation is taking its
toll. Fluctuations are aching
my soul'cause everything you
ever told me could have been
a lie we may never have
been in love.
And then I will escape, I'll
never ever have to see another
disappointed face, no one to
please. Every now and then,
it feels like, in all of the universe,
there is nobody for me.
I told myself I wouldn't care,
no I wouldn't care.
But when she said she'd come
round I combed my hair,
yes I checked my hair.
Fluctuations are aching
my soul, Expectation is
Remember me, I'm the one who had your babies, ahh
Remember me, I'm the one who had your babies, ahh
Remember me, I'm the one who had your babies, ahh
Remember me, I'm the one who had your babies, ahh
Remember me, I'm the one who had your babies, ahh
Remember me, I'm the one who had your babies, ahh
Remember me, I'm the one who had your babies, ahh
Remember me, I'm the one who had your babies, ahh
Remember me, I'm the one who had your babies, ahh
Remember me, I'm the one who had your babies, ahh
Remember me, I'm the one who had your babies, ahh
I'm the one who had your babies, I'm the one who had your babies
I'm the one who had your babies, I'm the one who had your babies
I'm the one who had your babies, I'm the one who had your babies
I'm the one who had your babies, I'm the one who had your babies
I'm the one who had your babies, I'm the one who had your babies
Oh, remember me, I'm the one who had your babies, ahh
Remember me, I'm the one who had your babies, ahh
Remember me, I'm the one who had your babies, ahh
All those things I ever thought would never end
I think there now old memories since we ran the band
Watch the airplanes swaying, coming in to land
Then my world is hanging in someone else's hands
And if I've done something, you have to let me go
Think of me as someone, someone that you know
But if I don't hear something, pretty soon from now
Ill disconnect completely, see how that works out
I wasn't daring not much at chances
Oh my darling, why won't you answer?
Seven AM, midnight is over
Sun's coming up now, I guess it's over
Playing his guitar while he's dying of cancer
Oh my father, why won't you answer?
Seven AM, midnight is over
All I give, are little clues, maybe one day I'll get through
There is nothing I can do, I just keep on lying to you
I only need to say it's true, only I already knew
But there is nothing you can do, I just keep on lying to you
Should my cover ever blow, would you ever let it go?
There is something you should know, but hell if I'd ever let it show
So here I am trying to be strong, it was known, now my shadows long
I guess I'll go and tell you just as soon as I get to the end of this song
To the end of this song, to the end of this song
To the end of this song, to the end of this song
Yeah, I'll be alone, take all you can
Please understand that it never really was love
All I give, are little clues, maybe one day I'll get through
I know where you went
but I don't know how you got there
I know where you went
but I don't know how you got there
Silver tongue hill
Where you talk up
what I'd play down,
I would speak up,
but I wouldn't know what to say.
Lucidity, come back to me,
put all five senses back
to where they're meant to be
Oh it's hard to tell,
it breaks down,
there is a will, there is a way
Wondering around like spare
time never knew it,
I might suck fizzle
or I might just float away
And we'll go running off tonight,
high above, where we won't even need
to reach the sky, my love.
Oh there will be a change in the air,
nobody will be anybody else.
Lucidity, come back to me,
put all five senses back
to where they're meant to be.
Oh where we'll go,
tip toe, tread boldly right down
(Gotta be above it, gotta be above it, gotta be above it, gotta be above it)
(Gotta be above it, gotta be above it, gotta be above it, gotta be above it)

And I know that I gotta be above it now
(Gotta be above it, gotta be above it)
And I know that I can't let them bring me down
(Gotta be above it, gotta be above it)
And I gotta bite my tongue as a face in the crowd

(Gotta be above it, gotta be above it, gotta be above it, gotta be above it)
This time I'm just gonna take it all, I'm never gonna shake it up
Just goes by to make it so all those things don't affect me now

Know that I gotta be above it now
(Gotta be above it, gotta be above it)
And I can't let them all just let bring me down

Soothing repeat,
I look down at my feet,
It's a hypnotist's arm,
And it works like a charm.
But I won't be deprived,
Real worlds, surreal life,
Do or die,
There is time,
Go to sleep,
You'll be fine.
In the morning you'll find,
Real life was such a grind.
Off I go, day is done
Feel it come
I don't know how long it's gonna stay with me
I'll let desire be
Desire go
Dare I face the real world
Everyday
Back and forth
What's it for?
What's it for?
Back and forth
Everyday
Everyday
Back and forth
What's it for
I don't know
I'll get out, won't have to...
Check my watch
I don't have the verve to belong to this dead side
Why I ever tried
It feels like I only go backwards baby
Every part of me says "go ahead"
But I got my hopes up again, oh no, not again
Feels like we only go backwards darling
I know that you think you sound
silly when you call my name
But I hear it inside my head all day.
When I realise I'm just holding onto
the hope that maybe
your feelings don't show...
It feels like I only go backwards baby,
Every part of me says go ahead.
Then I got my hopes up again, oh no, not again.
Feels like we only go backwards darling.
The seed of all this indecision isn't me, oh no
'Cause I decided long ago
But that's the way it seems to go when trying
so hard to get to something real
It feels...
It feels like I only go backwards, darling
Every part of me says go ahead
I got my hopes up again, no no, not again
Feels like we only go backwards darling
It feels like I only go backwards, baby
Every part of me says go ahead
I got my hopes up again, no no, not if it
Feels like we only go backwards darling
It feels like I only go backwards, baby
Every part of me says go ahead
I got my hopes up again, no no, not if it
Feels like my life is ready to blow
Me and my love, we're taking it slow
I hope she knows that I love her along
I just don't know where the hell I belong, oh no
I often miss the lady's trail
200 hundred things I've tooken away
I saw her love get drown in love
I tried to feel but it over flowed
Feels like my life is ready to blow
Me and my love, we're taking it slow
I hope she knows that I love her along
I just don't know where the hell I belong, oh no
She remembers my name, could be going way out
It's all going to change, she remembers my name
She's the only person around, please don't forget me (?)
Don't go (?) and it all just went out, yes, I'm holding this down
No more getting it wrong, I'll be frozen here long
If forever we'll see, no more guessing for me
Oh, now (?) to you and it all just came out
Cracks in the pavement underneath my shoe
I care less and less about and less about you
No one else around to look at me
So I can look at my shadow as much as I please
All the kicks that I can't compare to
Making friends like you're all supposed to
You will never come close to how I feel
You will never come close to how I feel
Space around me where my soul can breathe
I've got body that my mind can leave
Nothing else matters, I don't care what I miss
Company's okay
Solitude is bliss
There's a party in my head and no one is invited
And you will never come close to how I feel
You will never come close to how I feel
Movement doesn't flow
Quite like it does when I'm alone
I'll be the one who's free
You and all your friends
Can watch me, today
Don't ask me how you're supposed to feel
You will never come close to how I feel
You will never come close to how I feel
You will never come close to how I feel
