I'm fighting wars that I did not choose
I'm hosting a game when my ego is bruised
I'm pointing a gun towards my oldest friend
I'll carry a hurt to the bitter end
You won a lifetime
I've rose but it ain't mine
Chorus:
You know a lot sorrow
In my game that drown
You know a lot of sorrow
For getting all that chance
I know I left you lonely
You always leave me down
You know a lot of sorrow
And it's so, so, so, so
I'm falling apart and my everything
I'm chasing my tail as to chase your dream
In... and sins all my lovers be true
Keep ignoring the signs, darling you prevail!
Cause you won a lifetime
I've rose but it ain't mine
You saw my lifetime,
So I'm blue and...
Chorus:
You know a lot sorrow
In my game that drowns
You know a lot of sorrow
For getting all that chance
I know I left you lonely
You always leave me down
You know a lot of sorrow
And it's so, so, so, so
Do you know I love you so?
In my heart that's when you're...
I know you leave me lonely
I know you leave me lost
Still my heart goes like so and so, and so
Chorus:
You know a lot sorrow
In my game that drowns
You know a lot of sorrow
For getting all that chance
I know I left you lonely
You always leave me down
You know a lot of sorrow
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Two people, just meeting, barely touching each other
Two spirits, greeting, tryna carry each further
You are one, and I am another
We should be, one inside each other
You can see inside me, will you come inside me
Do you wanna ride, inside my love
You can see inside me, will you come inside me
Do you wanna ride, inside my love
Two strangers, not strangers
Only lacking the knowing
So willing, feeling
Infinite growing
While we're here, the whole world is turning
We should be, one, fulfilling the yearning
You can see inside me, will you come inside me
Do you wanna ride, inside my love
You can see inside me, will you come inside me
Do you wanna ride, inside my love
You can see inside me, will you come inside me
Do you wanna ride, inside my love
You can see inside me, will you come inside me
Do you wanna ride, inside my love
So you're afraid, what about me?
Dare to claim that you can't breathe
Hold my hand or I'll take yours
Don't let go cause how I feel
Is what you've made me
Though I'm hanging on a sign, I'm insecure
You got me walking on a line, still I need you more
And all the things I feel I hold 'em back from you
And all the dreams I dream I'm sure they'll hold no truth
I'm insecure
So you're afraid, what about me?
Stole my heart for all to see
Here I am, take me I'm yours
Dry my tears cause I can see
Just what I've made me
Though I'm hanging on a sign, I'm insecure
You got me walking on a line, still I need you more
And all the things I feel I hold 'em back from you
And all the dreams I dream I'm sure they'll hold no truth
I'm insecure
I realize that it's me being so cold
Trapped in a box where my heart's been for so long
I realize that it's me being insecure
I realize that it's me being so cold
Trapped in a box where my heart's been for so long
I realize that it's me being insecure
Feel I'm waiting on a sign, I'm insecure
Though I'm hanging on a sign, I'm insecure
You got me walking on a line, still I need you more
And all the things I feel I hold 'em back from you
And all the dreams I dream I'm sure they'll hold no truth
Hold your breath don't cry they're coming
*Tainted* secrets *don't die* they're coming
And if you wait for dawn to fade
You should see the dark
And as the gold defines your pain
Chorus:
I can feel your heart
Open from the start
I can feel your soul
Yearning to my call?
I can feel you
Hold my hand don't hide cos they're comin
Fallin angels fly by and they're comin
So if you wait for dawn to fade
You should see the dark
And as the gold defines your pain
Chorus:
I can feel your heart
Open from the start
I can feel your soul
Yearning to my call?
I can feel you
I can feel you're heart
You're heart
Why do you lie?
Tie me up in ribbons try to fly me like a malay kite
Thought I'd stay round
Asking you to say three words to me!
Smells like a ride...
Better start running cause its me you...
Dare to test me?
I'll teach your class from different points of view!
And in this course there's just no room for you.
Chorus:
Now I'm no more tied down by your laugh, out to drown,
You're a hater, such a hater
Was a perfect cut out by you stuck with a doubt
A hater, you're a hater
See I won't let you steal my thunder
For you I won't fall under
So sad to see you searching for a hate campaign
Your hate won't slow me down, down, down, down
Calm your bitch fit
Better learn to drive before you pull up at a quick fit,
Join the mile high, seat belt signs still on so take a seat!
Fi Fi Fo Fum Crush the tiny man with just a little slip of my tongue
So you need me
I hope you write a mix-tape RIP
For all the stupid things you said to me!
Chorus:
Now I'm no more tied down by your laugh, out to drown,
You're a hater, such a hater
Was a perfect cut out by you, stuck with a doubt
A hater, you're a hater
See I won't let you steal my thunder
For you I won't fall under
So sad to see you searching for a hate campaign
Your hate won't slow me down, down, down, down, down, down,
Follow me in the dark so sadness
Got me bad a bit to do with madness
See how bad you crave attention
So I'll pray for your redemption!
Won't let you steal my thunder
For you I won't fall under
So sad to see you searching for a hate campaign
Your hate won't...
Chorus:
Now I'm no more tied down by your laugh, out to drown,
You're a hater, such a hater
Was a perfect cut out by you, stuck with a doubt
A hater, you're a hater
See I won't let you steal my thunder
For you I won't fall under
So sad to see you searching for a hate campaign
Your hate won't slow me down, down, down, down, down, down,
Easy come, easy go, that's just how you live
Oh, take, take, take it all but you never give
Should've known you was trouble from the first kiss
Had your eyes wide open, why were they open?
Gave you all I had and you tossed it in the trash
You tossed it in the trash, you did
To give me all your love is all I ever asked
'Cause what you don't understand is
I'd catch a grenade for ya
Throw my hand on a blade for ya
I'd jump in front of a train for ya
You know I'd do anything for ya
I would go through all this pain
Take a bullet straight through my brain
Yes, I would die for you, baby
But you won't do the same
No, no, no, no
Black, black, black and blue, beat me 'til I'm numb
Tell the devil I said, hey, when you get back to where you're from
Mad women, bad women, that's just what you are, yeah
You'll smile in my face then rip the brakes out my car
Gave you all I had and you tossed it in the trash
You tossed it in the trash, yes, you did
To give me all your love is all I ever asked
'Cause what you don't understand is
I'd catch a grenade for ya
Throw my hand on a blade for ya
I'd jump in front of a train for ya
You know I'd do anything for ya
I would go through all this pain
Take a bullet straight through my brain
Yes, I would die for ya, baby
But you won't do the same
If my body was on fire
Ooh, you'd watch me burn down in flames
You said you loved me, you're a liar
'Cause you never, ever, ever did, baby
But darling, I'd still catch a grenade for ya
Throw my hand on a blade for ya
I'd jump in front of a train for ya
You know I'd do anything for ya
I would go through all this pain
Take a bullet straight through my brain
Yes, I would die for you, baby
But you won't do the same
No, you won't do the same
You wouldn't do the same
Ooh, you never do the same
I've been waiting for you
It's been so long
I knew just what I would do
When I heard your song
The next thing I felt was you
Holding me close
What am I gonna do?
I let myself go
Nothing left to say
Take my breath away
Whispering your name
Tie me up in chains
No one puts it down like me
Strength I carry none
Make me beg for more
Climbing up the walls
Banging down the doors
No one let you hear my scream
Like ooh
Your love's so cruel
You make me wanna go, go, go, go, go, ooh ooh
All the things you do
You make me wanna go, go, go, go, go, go, ooh
Captured effortlessly
That's the way it was
Happened so naturally
I did not know it was love
You filled my heart with a kiss
You give me freedom
You knew I could not resist
I needed someone
Nothing left to say
Take my breath away
Whispering your name
Tie me up in chains
No one puts it down like me
Strength I carry none
Make me beg for more
Climbing up the walls
Banging down the doors
No one let you hear my scream
Like ooh
Your love's so cruel
You make me wanna go, go, go, go, go, ooh ooh
(Nothing left to say)
(Take my breath away)
All the things you do
(Whispering your name)
(Tie me up in chains)
(No one puts it down like me)
You make me wanna go, go, go, go, go, go, ooh
Because who are you
To make me hmmm
And it's you ooh
And you go, and you go
Your love's so cruel
You make me wanna go, go, go, go, go, ooh ooh
(Nothing left to say)
(Take my breath away)
All the things you do
(Whispering your name)
(Tie me up in chains)
(No one puts it down like me)
(Hook: Delilah)
As the darkness turns to day, only you stand in the way,
No stops when you're on a run, understand who you've become.
You're the fire in the rain, only greatness will remain,
Push up, yes I raise the bar, don't be afraid of who you are,
You are, you are, who you are,
You are, you are, don't be afraid of who you are
[Verse 1: Wretch32]Growing up I liked G-banks,
But everyone was saying he was too cocky,
I noticed when you're the new champ,
There ain't nothing you can do properly,
That's why I'd rather run my race,
Before I think about how they judge my face,
I came to be the best so my training was immense,
24 hours and I won't even break a sweat,
I won't even take a rest cause to sleep when your dead's enough,
Main side of mileage on my price is still wearing off,
Had to put smiling to the side and get serious,
Wanna join me you're free to, that's the Wretch in ya,
I bet it feels like I'm directing ya,
Mr Tom-Tom going in and out your area,
It's a long run, you feel hate till you're scared of love,
I'm just trying to paint the picture, is it clear enough?
[Hook: Delilah]As the darkness turns to day, only you stand in the way,
No stops when you're on a run, understand who you've become.
You're the fire in the rain, only greatness will remain,
Push up, yes I raise the bar, don't be afraid of who you are,
[Wretch 32:]Tell me if you're with me,
I said I'm traveling at wind speed, ye-e-eah,
Tell me if you're with me, yea
Because I'm traveling at wind speed, ye-eah.
[Verse 2: Wretch 32]Wake up on a high,
and then I cross my heart and hope to fly,
With one question on my mind,
If you gotta stay grounded how the hell do ya touch the sky?
Assuming we're born to die,
But it's what you do between that deters if you're alive,
You only kill your dream when you open up your eyes,
And impossible's just a word that we recite,
It's a word that we've relied on for way too many years,
When they've put a man on the moon, planes in the air,
Probably said Houdini was a fraud before he disappeared,
Zuckerburg never had a penny to a millionaire,
Are you listening with your vision ears, ride to the willful,
Off in different years, I've engaged in a busy year,
I died trying to make my paradise, but I'm living it.
[Hook: Delilah]As the darkness turns to day, only you stand in the way,
No stops when you're on a run, understand who you've become.
You're the fire in the rain, only greatness will remain,
Push up, yes I raise the bar, don't be afraid of who you are,
[Wretch 32:]Tell me if you're with me,
I said I'm traveling at wind speed, ye-e-eah,
Tell me if you're with me, yea
Taking on the ows me,
They can do it then
Everything we add is there.
All the things you don't mean,
You won't get my big tea.
There's nothing you could do it then,
If you think that I might take you back,
Well, you don't know me.
I don't need you, go and find it
If you ever looked so real,
I don't want it, I don't need it.
In case it never taste so sorrow
Touch it never sound so sweet,
Get feeded, soon you'll be...
Don't care if I disrespect,
Is someone's they ever ment, oh
Just stop if we ever met,
Oh oh, it's time to walk away,
No one see me get up, set
Is someone's they ever ment, oh
Just stop if we ever met,
Oh oh, Oh oh, oh oh!
Sitting on my couch now,
Sipping on your regrets,
I don't hear a thing he says
And I don't give a damn, no.
I'm quiting these crowns down,
Nothing I can do it then,
Why you wanna make me beg?
You don't understand now!
I'm taking back all my powers
Nothing ever taste so sweet,
Get feed up to your pieces.
Don't care if I disrespect,
Is someone's they ever ment, oh
Just stop if we ever met,
Oh oh, it's time to walk away,
No one see me get up, set
Is someone's they ever ment, oh
Just stop if we ever met,
Oh oh, oh oh!
Oh, I'd like to kick you down,
Oh, die another day.
Baby baby, you're my sweet baby.
How I let you alone, no one home,
Remember me, you remember you?
I'm over you!
Don't care if I disrespect,
Is someone's they ever ment, oh
Just stop if we ever met,
Oh oh, it's time to walk away,
No one see me get up, set
Is someone's they ever ment, oh
Just stop if we ever met,
You hide me deep beneath your heart
I understand
Who you lend your love could tear you apart
But I could only recognize your face at night time
Morning shadows cloak the one thing I can't find
You and all the things you do
And all the things you say
And all the things I feel you think
The one I thought I knew
Is dying to be saved
I pray one day you rescue him
And get to see you again
I'm gonna catch you
And get to see you again
Time you put up a fight
And get to see you again
I'll drag you back to everything that we once knew
Before I let you give in
And get to see you again
You know I love you
And get to see you again
But you I do not like
And get to see you again
Don't wanna be with a man that's stuck pretending
That he's not able to win
And get to see you again
You grasp my fears of broken love
And claim them yours
You've opened doors then shared in the path
But I can only recognize your face at night time
Morning shadows cloak the one thing I can't find
You and all the things you do and all the things you say
And all the things I feel you think
The one I thought I knew
Is dying to be saved
I pray one day you rescue him
And get to see you again
I'm gonna catch you
And get to see you again
Time you put up a fight
And get to see you again
I'll drag you back to everything that we once knew
Before I let you give in
And get to see you again
You know I love you
And get to see you again
But you I do not like
And get to see you again
Don't wanna be with a man that's stuck pretending
That he's not able to win
And get to see you again
These situations pass us by
You seem to lead a double life
And I know that it is only meant to hide
Your feelings kept down deep inside
But I can see all of the things you do
Trapped behind the one I thought I knew
And get to see you again
I'm gonna catch you
And get to see you again
Time you put up a fight
And get to see you again
I'll drag you back to everything that we once knew
Before I let you give in
And get to see you again
You know I love you
And get to see you again
But you I do not like
And get to see you again
Don't wanna be with a man that's stuck pretending
That he's not able to win
Twenty-one
I stumbled fore they came to get you,
You locked yourself away.
Steady on
The guilty trials they'll send to test you,
I swear i cried that day.
But I'll wait for you to waken
I'll find the words to say and
I'll smile and take a picture on the day,
You turn twenty-one.
So blow out the candles
Make a wish and celebrate,
I know I'm here, see more with each day you're gone away.
Twenty-one
The day they cut your spirit from you
Scarred my heart with pain,
Freedom on to inside a cage they kept you
And watched you die that way.
But I'll wait for you to waken
I'll find the words to say and
I'll smile and take a picture on the day,
You turn twenty-one.
So blow out the candles
Make a wish and celebrate
I know I'm here, see more with each day you're gone away. (x2)
Gone away (x4)
So blow out the candles
Make a wish and celebrate
I know I'm here, see more with each day you're gone away. (x2)
I am strong when I'm quiet
I never let you see me stall
I can hate what you say and still smile
Only play on an open court
I am the ringleader of my own circle
Fall on my knees and I won't bleed
Set me on fire and I'll fall to sleep
The pain of my scolds sets me free
I can not Breathe (yeah)
Let me be free (yeah) from myself
Drown me in silence and suddenly I'm floating
I rip me apart with one look
Use my heart as a crutch for my ego
And hope that I never never fall in love
I can not Breathe (yeah)
Let me be free (yeah) from myself
I must survive
This wonderful punishment called life
Use my heart and unravel it
My innocence is all gone
Torn apart and I can't handle it
My innocence is all gone
I can not Breathe (yeah)
Let me be free (yeah) from myself
I must survive
This wonderful punishment called life
I am strong when I'm quiet
I never let you see me stall
I can hate what you say and still smile
Only play on an open court
I am the ringleader of my own circle
Fall on my knees and I won't bleed
Set me on fire and I'll fall to sleep
The pain of my scolds sets me free
I can not Breathe (yeah)
Let me be free (yeah) from myself
Drown me in silence and suddenly I'm floating
I rip me apart with one look
Use my heart as a crutch for my ego
And hope that I never never fall in love
I can not Breathe (yeah)
Let me be free (yeah) from myself
I must survive
This wonderful punishment called life
Use my heart and unravel it
My innocence is all gone
Torn apart and I can't handle it
My innocence is all gone
I can not Breathe (yeah)
Let me be free (yeah) from myself
I must survive
This wonderful punishment called life
Until you ask yourself
Why you never felt this way before,
You're trying hard to wait
When you know its so long,
So much more
Because you're looking for something everyone finds
and all that keeps going 'round your mind
is things still aren't right but right now they can't be wrong.
And so you slowly pull back
your heart still in tact
excuses make up for things that you lack
Surrounded by lies 'till one day your on your own.
And so you win, so you run, but you cannot hide
You try to say what your voice denies.
Along the way mistakes that you've made,
you'll have to escape
the troubles you may face.
And so you run but you cannot hide
You try to say what your voice denies.
Next time your kind, your left to decide
which way do you ride
the answers in the gospel.
How can you fight the fear
when it breaks you down and leaves you cold.
You could be far from here
its the only place you can call home.
Because you're looking for something everyone finds
and all that keeps going 'round your mind
is things still aren't right but right now they can't be wrong.
And so you slowly pull back
your heart still in tact
excuses make up for things that you lack
Surrounded by lies 'till one day your on your own.
And so you win, so you run, but you cannot hide
You try to say what your voice denies.
Along the way mistakes that you've made,
you'll have to escape
the troubles you may face.
And so you run but you cannot hide
You try to say what your voice denies.
Next time your kind, your left to decide
which way do you ride
Life is a ride where you choose
And you decide if you wait or jump in front of the line
But whilst you wait you will learn
That hesitating can only cause wasting of time
If you remove all the brakes in your life
You will not see that people have started fading
The ones closest to you, will move along and you will be
The one left evading
Don't say you're ready to leave
You won't leave, come back into my life
Tabitha, mummy and me
We'll pretend everything is just fine
You'd always start and I, wish you would stop too
Think what you had and went, think what you had and went to worst
I know you don't wanna go
Ooh I just want you back home
Life is a strange fairytale
Someone you knew so well can one day hit you as shark
Cause you don't think that one day they'll have to go away
And when they do, you'll feel lost
How do you protect a child from missing something
They just can't hide
Is it a really worthwhile, all this
All loved things (?) seem to come at a cost
Don't say you're ready to leave
You won't leave, come back into my life
Tabitha, mummy and me
We'll pretend everything is just fine
You'd always start and I, wish you would stop too
Think what you had and went, think what you had and went to worst
I know you don't wanna go
Ooh I just want you back home
Too late, too soon, it's not fair
I want, she wants, we need you there
I know you don't want and so does she
We're all just hoping for a remedy
Don't say you're ready to leave
You won't leave, come back into my life
Tabitha, mummy and me
We'll pretend everything is just fine
You'd always start and I, wish you would stop too
Think what you had and went, think what you had and went to worst
I know you don't wanna go
Ooh I just want you back home
I know you don't wanna go
I just want you back home
Steal my eyes and I will see you through on this bitter sweet journey
Take my hand and I will lead you to the so called end
Hold me tight and I'll forgive you for making me stay
Tell me lies and then I'll leave you, cause lies are made of fear
You better be strong for me
I said you better be strong for me
Steal my eyes and I will see you through on this bitter sweet journey
Take my hand and I will lead you to the so called end
Hold me tight and I'll forgive you for making me stay
Tell me lies and then I'll leave you, cause lies are made of fear
You better be strong for me
I said you better be strong for me
I said you better be strong for me
You know you better be strong for me
Steal my eyes and I will see you through on this bitter sweet journey
Take my hand and I will lead you to the so called end
Hold me tight and I'll forgive you for making me stay
Tell me lies and then I'll leave you, cause lies are made of fear
You better be strong for me
I said you better be strong for me
You know you better be strong for me
I said you better be strong for me
I said you better be strong for me
Strong for me
Strong for me
I said you better be strong for me
You know you better be strong for me
Take my hand, hold on tight
Don't feel shame if you like
You and I, we are safe,
So high to play these games with me!
When you give me so irate
Make me wait for you
The time it takes to hate always fades too soon
Cause I could tell that you want me when...
So why did you make me wait
Keep me so irate,
Chorus:
So irate, so irate
Boy you!
You're so irate, so irate
Boy you!
I'll start fight for...
Seems like I'm half away to fall from you
You always seem to keep me so irate
Make me wait for you
The time takes to... always fades too soon!
Cause I can tell that you want me when...
So I... keep me so irate,
Chorus:
So irate, so irate
Boy you!
You're so irate, so irate
Boy you!
(Kiss me so) so irate
(Kiss me so) so irate
Boy you!
(Kiss me so) so irate
(Kiss me so) so irate
Ay, ay, ay, ay
(Kiss me so) so irate
(Kiss me so) so irate
(Boy you)
(Kiss me so) so irate
(Kiss me so) so irate
Thought it was love, memories scope the lies
That lead me far from here, here, far from here
Trying hard to silence all you say but
You stay in my ear, you stay in my ear
Because everything you didn't want
Became a part of me
All the things you asked for
I just could not see
Everything you are, everything you are
Everything you are, left a broken heartbeat
[Chorus]
Through the darkest shades of grey
I see beauty in the rain
I find myself, I find myself
Go and... go and free walk alone in the night
Through the darkest shades of grey
I see beauty in the rain
... light, call out to a stranger and I
But it was youuuhuuu, youuuhuuu
Sleeping alone I cried out, for you in my dream
No matter how hard I try to change you
You won't change with me
Because everything you didn't want
Became a part of me
All the things you asked for
I just could not see
Everything you are, everything you are
Everything you are, left a broken heartbeat
[Chorus]
Through the darkest shades of grey
I see beauty in the rain
I find myself, I find myself
Go and... go and free walk alone in the night
Through the darkest shades of grey
I see beauty in the rain
... light, call out to a stranger and I
So let me run away, run away now
I got to run away, run away
I'm gonna run away, run away
So let me run away, run away now
Watch me run away, run away now
I'm gonna run away, run away
So watch me run away, run away now
[Chorus]
Through the darkest shades of grey
I see beauty in the rain
I find myself, I find myself
Go and... go and free walk alone in the night
Through the darkest shades of grey
I see beauty in the rain
... light, call out to a stranger and I
I've been trapped inside the books
Only drowning in my thoughts
I've been searching for a light
Hoping it will lead me out
I've been climbing up the wall
Screaming someone help me up
Hoping you would hear like oh
Say you will lead on now
Only you can keep me safe
So I'll just stay here in your arms
Holding you goes to I'll be there as
It waits inside my heart
Laying still in your embrace
I'ma sleep when you're awake
Place a kiss upon my head
To match the smile on my face
There's not a bridge that I won't cross
To stop me missing you so much
Without you here I am numb
I won't fall to feel your touch
Only you and you alone
Can speak the words I long to hear
Holding you so close
Your whisper sounds like music to my ear
In my sleep, walk with me
We'll sing lullabies
You and I were meant to flyyy!
I'm afraid in case I wake
This dream is where I'll stay
I will never ever love another guy
Can't you see, longing for me
Only you and you alone
Can speak the words I long to hear
Holding you so close
Your whisper sounds like music to my ear
I've been waitin' for you
It's been so long
I knew just what I would do
When I heard your song
The next thing I felt was you
Holding me close
What am I gonna do?
I let myself go
Nothing left to say
Take my breath away
Whispering your name
Tie me up in chains
No one puts it down like me
Strength I carry none
Make me beg for more
Climbing up the walls
Banging down the doors
No one let you hear my scream
Like ooh
Your love's so cruel
You make me wanna go, go, go, go, go, ooh ooh
All the things you do
You make me wanna go, go, go, go, go, go, ooh
Captured effortlessly
That's the way it was
Happened so naturally
I did not know it was love
You filled my heart with a kiss
You give me freedom
You knew I could not resist
I needed someone
Nothing left to say
Take my breath away
Whispering your name
Tie me up in chains
No one puts it down like me
Strength I carry none
Make me beg for more
Climbing up the walls
Banging down the doors
No one let you hear my scream
Like ooh
Your love's so cruel
You make me wanna go, go, go, go, go, ooh ooh
All the things you do
You make me wanna go, go, go, go, go, go, ooh
Because who are you
To make me hmmm
And it's you ooh
And you go, and you go...
Your love's so cruel
You make me wanna go, go, go, go, go, ooh ooh
All the things you do
Cinnababy why are you so lonely?
He holds you tight but never do you cry.
And if you hold my heart, I'll be heartbroken
Because your hands are tied.
Rent a baby see how much it loves you
Leave your dream but first you must have won
Buy a house cause then you'll be safe from me
Cause you'll be locked inside.
Cinnababy why are you so lonely?
You shine out
Cinnababy you're my one and only
I'll never let you go.
Cinnababy look how tall you've grown now
So strong that I can barely help you up
You can drive but let me steer you home now
You just enjoy the ride, enjoy the ride, enjoy the ride.
Flashing lights make it hard to see through
All the smiles and laughs
Stormy clouds may come but I'll still shield you
From the stowing rain, stowing rain, stowing rain.
Cinnababy why are you so lonely?
You shine out
Cinnababy you're my one and only
I'll never let you go.
Go-o-o-o-o x2
Cinnababy why you still so,
Cinnababy why you still so,
Cinnababy why you still so lonely?
Hold your breath don't cry theyre coming
*Tainted* secrets *don't die* theyre coming
And if you wait for dawn to fade
You should see the dark
And as the gold defines your pain
[Chorus:]
I can feel your heart
Open from the start
I can feel your soul
Yearning to my call?
I can feel you
Hold my hand dont hide cos they're comin
Fallin angels fly by and theyre comin
So if you wait for dawn to fade
You should see the dark
And as the gold defines your pain
[Chorus:]
I can feel your heart
Open from the start
I can feel your soul
Yearning to my call?
I can feel you
I can feel you're heart
You're heart

I'm too much
Or not enough
Maybe everyone else is messed up
Well anyway
I can't seem to stay in just one state of mind
Waiting round for something better
I'm the one that wouldn't let her
Now I'm back and forth
I get bored when she's no perfect find
Cause it's one thing
Or another
I don't even know why I bother
One thing just tears her down
Cause it's one thing
Or another
I don't even know why I bother
Something I just can't get around
Consider the possibility
That you've been had but not by me
We're just kids
Don't worry about this
My course is run and I'm so tired
Until the next one comes inspired
I feel bad and I should
I made her sad and I knew it would
Cause it's one thing
Or another
I don't even know why I bother
One thing just tears her down
Cause it's one thing
Or another
I don't even know why I bother
Something I just can't get around
I need to learn
To wait in turn
Cause now I just step blindly
And I'm only happy when
I can close my eyes and I just die there
And forget about about acting kindly
(Cause it's always one)
Cause it's one thing
Or another
I don't even know why I bother
One thing just tears her down
Cause it's one thing
Or another
I don't even know why I bother
Some things I just can't get around
Can I get a T (T)
And if you hit me with the A L L Y
Then you'd see why the Hall is here for ya'll
The mini mall is calling us all again
So kids pack us your moms car
Back up the windstar kick it in drive
and arrive at the mega mart
Slide the side hatch with pride
cause your ties match
And booty dooty like your name is eddie thatch
W W T H D we like to kick it at the univesity
but all work and no play makes us crazy so
we jump in the bumping SUV
hit the street get the sweet tunes on one
do a donut on your mommas front lawn
and sooner than you know
you found the rock n roll show
at the tizzy hizzy we'll be gone
Were in the mini mall
working the carnival
we like to play it all
welcome to Tally Hall
(whoo)
(Whos to blame?)
The audtomated players I proclaim
yellow tie the sauve fellow writes
harmophonic tunes of how love bites
Red the proud loud guy we adore
(is my amp too high?) no turn it up more!
So Gray in the back sippin yeah i can hear
knock down the shots like Bill and Beer
Send home the locksmith
Greens got the keys to unlock the rock in the
act if you please
Now open the case, give blue the bass
and jiggle your badigle all over the place
Were in the mini mall
working the carnival
we like to play it all
welcome to Tally Hall
Were in the mini mall
working the carnival
we like to play it all
welcome to Tally Hall
Can I get a click flick off of the switch
and we'll ignite the night in pitch
Singin songs you like to hear
And the world will dissapear
Then we'll be glowing in the dark
Lighting up the park
Revealing that the Hall is the place
that aimes to please
with unpredictable games and antiquities
The collectable so delectable
The unreliable style's undetectable
Like I might rap like an English Chap
Take you by the knickers and a bum your slap
You didnt think we had the gull
everybody welcome to Tally Hall
Were stereo sonic, were anamatronic
were rappin with the robolectronicabonics
A quick distraction a mechanic attraction
got a penny in your pocket for the slot
rock
Hey ho dont you know its a good old fashion
puppet show, thats right quite the set
were the marionet quintet
We think were playing in a band
But we'd love to give you all a hand
Were in the mini mall
working the carnival
we like to play it all
welcome to Tally Hall
We think were playing in a band
But we'd love to give you all a hand
We think were playing in a band
But we'd love to give you all a hand
We think were playing in a band
But we'd love to give you all a hand
Now and then an old friend of mine,
I've not seen for some time,
Will stop by and ask me where I been,
What's on my mind.
They wonder why I'm not drinkin',
And still painting this old town red.
I tell them I'm serving Jesus now,
And the old man is dead
[Chorus:]
And the man you see before you,
May look a lot the same,
I may wear the same clothes,
And have the same old name.
But you're looking' on the outside,
If you could see inside instead,
You would see a brand new man,
Cause the old man is dead.
I used to live such a wicked life,
I had no peace inside.
I was lost in darkness,
Searching for the light.
Then one night in a little church,
After hearin' what the preacher said,
I gave my life to Jesus,
And the old man is dead.
[spoken] Ladies and Gentlemen, curl PT Chester with boys are proud to present Bumbo Chumbo and the Zimbabwe Songbirds!
Do you see banana man
Hopping over on the white hot sand
Here he come with some for me
Freshly taken from banana tree
(1, 2, 3, 4)
Banana man me want a tan
Give me double on the bonus one
Give me more for all me friends
Dis banana flow never end
Do you want a banana?
Peel it down and go mm mm mm mm
Do you want a banana?
Dis banana for you
Tonight we dance around the flame
Then we get to play the spirit game
Spirit names we shout out loud
Shake the thunder from the spirit cloud
Morning songbirds in the tree
Chant a tune to let the spirits free
Then we see them in the night
Spirits jumpin by the fire light
Do you want a banana? (Do you want a banana)
Peel it down and go mm mm mm mm
Do you want a banana? (Do you want a banana)
Dis banana for you
(oh ho ho) (ahhh)
Look you your too uptight you know
You can laugh and kick it back and go (weee)
But without a rhythm or a rhyme
You do not banana all the time
Fly away from city on the run
Try to make a little fun
(ah huh ah huh ah huh ah huh ah huh ah huh ah huh)
Look you come to the bungalo
Africans you tell me dont you so
Dont you love the pumping of the drum
Make you shake until the bum go numb
Let the bungo play you till you drop
Dis banana never stop (never stop, never stop)
Forget all your troubles and go with the flow
Forget about whatever you may never know
Like whether whatever you are doing is whatever you should and whether anything you do is every really any good
And then Forget about banana when it sticks in your throat
And when they make you wanna bellow but your stuck in a choke and you forget about the yell from the colorful men that'll make you take another and make a mock of your plan
Bungale Bungalo make up your mind and tell me no ummmm shhh
Well its nine o'clock and its getting dark
and the sun is falling from the sky
I've never left so early and you may wonder why
*whistle*
(talking in the background - srry i cant get what they're saying)
Tomorow morning on the plane
No banana make you go insane
Floating back to busy town
No banana make you want to frown
Do you want a banana? (Do you want a banana)
Peel it down and go mm mm mm mm
Do you want a banana?
Dis banana for
To leave from this tale follow closely ahead
Prepare to exist by the living & dead
Too slow or too kind or too wary of those too at ease
Past all the buried impressions of then
Sullen drawn eyes and expressions to mend
Continued through mirrors left broken to sing and be heard
Through when it seems all the senses are lost to absurd
So the part where we are
Trapped in active depart
In the fate of the stars
No not one who we are
No control pumping heart
Button pressed mind in art
Mind control
Mind restart
To leave from the present with no source of sound
They laugh because silence is never around
Ignored and forgotten the past may continue to breathe
Feared not a rest by this desolate friend
Whose patience revealed what intent comes to send
With a stare at a hole in the world comes a lust to be high
Above all the dark nested clouds that keep guard of the sky
So the part where we are
Trapped in active depart
In the fate of the stars
No not one who we are
No control pumping heart
Button pressed mind in art
Mind control
Mind restart
Step onto the ferris wheel
Round for day & night
Lost in what's forever more
Complacent in its reasons for
Give & Take &
Sleep & Wake &
Pray for Day & Night to come
Again we see there's certainty in
What we feel and what we've heard
Again we see there's certainty in
We were playing in the sand
And you found a little band
You told me you fell in love with it
Hadnt gone as I planed
When you had to bid adieu
Said you'd never love anew
I wondered if I could hold it
and fall in love with it too
You told me buy a pony
But all i wanted was you
mmmmmm oooo mmmm ooo mmmmmm
I've been sleeping in a cardboard box,
Spending every dollar at the liquor shop,
And even though I know I haven't got a lot
I try to give you love until the day you drop.
I've been training like a Pavlov dog,
Sent my independence out to take a hike.
All you got to do is activate my bell,
And I'll fetch you anything you like
Going once,
Going twice,
Every man here has a price.
Over where,
Over there,
Sold to not a single lady in here
I've been here like a thousand times,
Dated every woman in the atmosphere.
I've been to every continent,
Broken all the hearts in every hemisphere,
And if I'm not the type of guy you like to circumvent,
Just remember not to love me when I disappear
I graduated at the top,
I like to take advantage of the bourgeoisie,
So if you have a fantasy of being a queen,
Maybe you should blow a couple bucks on me.
Going once,
Going Twice,
Won't these gentlemen suffice?
Any here,
Any there,
Any motions any where.
Going twice,
Going thrice,
Guess this means we'll go four times a lady,
I promise I'll be all you'll need,
Ever need,
You'll never have to shop around.
- Don't shop around.
And I'll give you all you'll ever need,
Ever need.
Don't worry; I will never let you down,
Let you down,
Don't worry; I will never let you down.
So many ladies,
Are hunting for mates,
And the prospect are good,
But the date's never great.
Over here,
Over there,
Over where,
Anywhere.
They're too busy,
For winning,
The bidding,
Juno was mad;
He knew he'd been had
So he shot at the sun with a gun
Shot at the sun with a gun
Shot at his wily one only friend
In the gallows or the ghetto
In the town or the meadow
In the pillows even over the sun
Every end of the time is another begun
You understand
Mechanical hands
Are the ruler of everything (ahh)
Ruler of everything (ahh)
I'm the ruler of everything
In the end
(Backwards: Ohohohohohohoho he's a jack rabbit he's running away look at him he's jumping around!)
Do you like how I dance?
I've got zirconium pants!
Consequential enough
To slip you into a trance
Do you like how I walk?
Do you like how I talk?
Do you like how my face
Disintegrates into chalk?
I have a wonderful wife
I have a powerful job
She criticizes me for being egocentric (ha ha ha)
You practice your mannerisms
Into the wall
If this mirror were clearer
I'd be standing so tall
I saw you slobber over clovers on the side of the hill
I was observing the birds
Circle in for the kill
I've been you
I know you
Your facade is a scam
You know you're making me cry
This is the way that I am
I've been living a lie
A metamorphical scheme
Detective undercover brotherhood
Objective: obscene
Oh no, no
Oh yeah
Do you hear the flibbity jibbity jibber jabber
With an oh my god I've got to get out of here or I'll have another
Word to sell
Another story to tell
Another time piece ringing the bell
Do you hear the clock stop when you reach the end
You know it must be never ending
Comprehend if you can
But when you try to pretend to understand
You resemble a fool
Although you're only a man
So give it up and
Smile
Do you hear the flibbity jibbity jibber jabber
With an oh my god I've got to get out of here or I'll have another
Word to sell
Another story to tell
Another time piece ringing the bell
Do you hear the clock stop when you reach the end
You know it must be never ending
Comprehend if you can
But when you try to pretend to understand
You resemble a fool
Although you're only a man
So give it up and
Smile
You understand
Mechanical hands
Are the ruler of everything (aah)
Ruler of everything (aah)
I'm the ruler of everything
In the end
Without looking down
Gliding around
Like a bumbling dragon I fly
Scraping my face on the sky
Oh no, no
I have little thing
It's probably just a fling
there's two girls I like a lot
I think they're really hot
I'm not sure if they know
how my love began to grow
it took a lot of time
right now it's solely mine
today
I drew a mural of the things I'd like to love
and where my heart subsides
is with two girls with great eyes
(spoken)
if they just give me a chance
I'de show them what they want
and teach them what they got
and I'd tickle each and every one of their fancies
and I'd take the key to my heart
and open it and let the love shine through
Mary Kate and Ashley I hope you understand
that I love you a lot and I wanna be your man
and I think
that it'd be totally cool if I hung around your apartments
and I rolled into school
Mary Kate!
I saw you on TV
you dressed up like a bee
remind me of the time
how it's gone and it's gone and it's gone
it's sadness every day that passes without you
and I really wanna really wanna really wanna hold you both tight
and tell you you're mine but instead I sing
Mary Kate and Ashley I hope you understand
that I love you a lot and I wanna be your man
and I think
that it'd be totally cool if I hung around your apartments
and I rolled into school
(spoken)
yeah...
I could play them a song
uhh. there's probably hundreds of songs out there
hmm...
maybe I could play them two songs!
Yeah!
cus there's two of them!
yeah!
Mary Kate and Ashley I hope you understand
that I love you a lot and I wanna be your man
and I think
that it'd be totally cool if I hung around your apartments
and I rolled into school
I know that life without you and you would be sad
I know it'd be bad
Mary Kate and Ashley I hope you understand
that your loveliness blossomed and I wanna hold your hands
and I think
that it'd be totally cool if I hung around your apartments
and I rolled into school
Mary Kate and Ashley I hope you understand
(once you learn to love me life will be alright)
that I love you a lot and I wanna be your man
and I think
(once you learn to love me life will be alright)
that it'd be totally cool if I hung around your apartments
and I rolled into school
once you learn to love me life will be alright
once you learn to love me life will be alright
I suppose you're quite content
In your swimming pool
All you pink skinned babes are the same
And you can't stay forever young
So get out here and see the sun
You're only six inches away from becoming one
I was in your shoes before
Or lack thereof
And things worked out for me
There's a dozen people here
And they're waiting for you
It's your party you can cry if you want to
What if I told you
I could show you something
What if I told you
I could make you live
Follow my instruction
Swim in the direction
Of my voice
Hear my voice
Of my voice
Hear my voice
You think that you've seen it all
In your little ball
Man you're wrong and she's been waiting
Long and hard to kiss your head
And hold your hands
And hold you while you fall asleep
What if I told you
I could show you something
What if I told you
I could make you live
Follow my instruction
Swim in the direction
Of my voice
Hear my voice
Of my voice
Hear my voice
Ba Ba Ba
Ba da Baaa
Baaa Ba da Ba Ba-ee-ah
Ba Ba Ba
Ba da Baaa
Baaa Ba da Ba Ba-ee-ah
What if I told you
I could show you something
What if I told you
I could make you live
Follow my instruction
Swim in the direction
Of my voice
Hear my voice
Of my voice
If I could go back to last night at the dance
I'd ask you to dance with me
If I could approach you for your number
I would call you as soon as I got home
The first time I saw you I saw you
My heart fell to pieces
The first time I imagined being closer
It could have happened
Last night I had my chance (ohh ahh)
To hold you in my arms and slowly dance (ohh ahh)
But I coulndt ask you at the time
And I know its just the same (oh oh oh oh)
And I feel its just the same (oh oh oh oh oh)
And I know its just the same (oh oh yeah)
And I feel
Its just the same
I forgot what it feels like
to feel something good
I remember now
I dont care if some other guys in your life
I hope you could love me
Last night I had my chance (ohh ahh)
To hold you in my arms and slowly dance (ohh ahh)
But I coulndt ask you at the time
And I know its just the same (oh oh oh oh)
And I feel its just the same (oh oh oh oh oh)
And I know its just the same (oh oh yeah)
And I feel
Will I adore you on a Thursday night
WIll I remember you on Saturday
And Ill just think of all the time
And I know its just the same (oh oh oh oh)
And I feel its just the same (oh oh oh oh oh)
And I know its just the same (oh oh yeah)
There's lots of pretty people here
Sharing soltries and passing letters and
There's lots of questions answered and
Metaphysical astronomical songs
Words printed all on papers
That seemed too mystical
It's so magical
People that dance and compute that
No one's better then you
La la la
La la la
La la la
La la la
There's kings in distant cities
Who rule their persons and
Make them happy and
We won't forget about all the
Servisory congratulatory
Even the animals know that something's brewing
And they're all cooing
Cause in the end I'd like to say
No one's better than you
I hope you're happy now
I've revealed the truth
I've even written this whole song about you
And not about me
And not about me
Please don't just laugh and clap right now
This is serious
I'm not delirious
I've waited very patiently
Just to let you know
Who should run the show
Cause we all know these are the facts
Nothing to retract
Nothing too abstract
Concluding in the song
I'll say
No one's better than you
No one's better than you
No one's better than
I have been trying
To write a haiku for you
Some things I just can't do
Maybe you're beyond
Ancient Asian poetry
Or maybe it's just me
I have been trying
To get this haiku just right
All night for you alright
I'm through!
Maybe this poem
Was lost in the sauce we spilled
That never got refilled
I've never thought much
Of formulaic verse anyway
And rhymes are not my fort–
I have been trying
To get this haiku just right
All night for you alright
I'm through!
I'm trying not to try too hard
But you're hard to write down right
So I pen these trite attempts
At haikus for you tonight
La da dee diddum
Lada da dum doo diddle
Dum doo la dee do
There that's sufficient
I wrote a haiku for you
Well I tried at least
And that's not so bad
I'm working here
Can that be said for you?
I'm trying not to try too hard
But you're hard to write down right
So I pen these trite attempts
At haikus for you tonight
Words don't work like Webster says
They trip me up all night
I'm just trying to write for you
One time I tried to sing
About spring and a storm
But you know
How it goes
Blah blah blah blah
Blah blah blah blah
Blah
All along
Won't you please stop complaining
I'm playing a song
But all the rain comes down the same
Falling to from where it came
On the ground then back around
Up into the sky
I wish you could have heard the music
When the clouds growled overhead
I finally felt enthusiastic
I finally felt alive
Blah blah blah blah
Blah blah blah blah
Blah
So you said
Would it please you to listen
To thunder instead
Man the rain came down that day
And it drained my soul away
And I wondered why I even
Bothered to try
Mr. Moon (Yeah?)
Tell us about the sky
The sky is deep and dark and eternally high
Many people think that's where you go when you die
Do you?
Well I think you return to obscure
Or wherever you were
Before you were
But I won't let you lose yourself
In the rain
We have so much left to sing
There's a storm for every spring
All you see and you and me
Became from a star
You're a star
Yes you are
(Silent explosive and
Silent explosive and)
Create until nothing is left to create and
The universe bursts with an overworked sigh then
Pretend to pretend to re-crown the creation and
Sing the same thing ‘til the clouds start to cry and then
Over and over and over again and then
Over and over and
Save some face
You know you've only got one
Change your ways
While you're young
Boy, one day you'll be a man
Oh girl, he'll help you understand
Smile like you mean it
Smile like you mean it
Looking back
At sunsets on the East side
We lost track of the time
Dreams aren't what they used to be
Some things sat by so carelessly
Smile like you mean it
Smile like you mean it
And someone is calling my name
From the back of the restaurant
And someone is playing a game
In the house that I grew up in
And someone will drive her around
Down the same streets that I did
On the same streets that I did
Smile like you mean it
Smile like you mean it
Smile like you mean it
Smile like you mean it
Oh no, oh no, no no
Here's that part again
Where everything's more than it should be and
Greener seems to fall beneath your feet
Seconds tick like boulders
Whenever you don't call
Does it seem like that where you are
Wherever it is you are
Does it seem like that where you are (yeah yeah yeah yeah)
Time for time together
And depending on the weather
We'll either argue in your
House or outside
How different I felt
Before I got this notch on my belt
'cause in my plans you were all for me
Yeah but now it seems that you'd just rather leave
Wherever you go
Is breaking me slowly
Don't leave it alone
Don't leave it alone
You sound so much further on the phone
You fit just right
Right next to me
But there's always a reason why it can't be
Telephones make you seem miles away from home
All alone I get a little meaner
I leave a message at your tone
And miles away from home
You get a little cleaner of me
And I find a little greener shade of envy
Wherever you go
Is breaking me slowly
Don't leave it alone
Don't leave it alone
You sound so much further on the phone
You fit just right
Right next to me
But there's always a reason why it can't be
Tissues get used
Getting rid of you
Don't you see what you do to me
And you just let it be
I wish you'd get used
And then come running back
To the shoulder that's become me
To the shoulder that's me
Wherever you are
Is breaking my heart
Don't leave it alone
Don't leave it alone
You fit just right
Looking for a cavern
A place where she can stay
Waiting for the darkness
When she leaves obsessed to make her way to me
Because it's getting to the time when she will need to feed and
I am the willing victim of a cannibal
She rips out my bones just like I'm an animal
And right when I'm feeling like my blood is drained
She calls it a game
But the wound that she leaves is unmistakable
I am not the only one that she has come to see
Dig up the skeletons of men who thought that they would be the
One like me
Like they could be the ones to make her believe
But for now
I am the willing victim of a cannibal
She rips out my bones just like I'm an animal
And right when I'm feeling like my blood is drained
She calls it a game
But the wound that she leaves is unmistakable
Hiding in corners disguised
She's a phantom, a glimmer inside
She keeps on feeding while I am conceding
So please won't you tear me open wide
I am the willing victim of a cannibal
She rips out my bones just like I'm an animal
And right when I'm feeling like my blood is drained
She calls it a game
Marvin walked into a helpless land,
And wondered lightly am I happy?
Is this happy?
Following the footsteps left by man
He stepped to reprimand the mystic
Who's sadistic
Took a step into the elevator
Who said guess I'll see you later
Don't you worry
Fifteen flights that lasted nights
And days that spent without a cent
For creatures, with their beat shirts.
Listening to painted whispered
Light on top forgotten hills
Next the stranded senate of the white brick house
With flowers asked some questions.
For their story
All feeling now he took his bow
And left the stage of time with no answers
To no questions
Lonely paperbacks that wanted
Just a taste of feeling to implode them
Before living
Tiptoed to the wooden sign and said
Now take your place in line for happy
This is lovely
Listening to painted whispered
Light on top forgotten hills
One secondary smile
To go that extra mile
To make me feel today
To make it go away
The chemistry is gone
Taken for a ride
Far away from you
No longer left inside
The actor with his world renowned
Was thinking 'bout his last real day of silence
Was it over?
Or is it just we all think
That our answer isn't real, it's just a picture
Of a letter
Bumble Mumble, take the route
No matter what, you'll seem profound
It's useless just to worry
Something normal happens
Somewhere far away in clouds so please
Stop thinking; this is happy.
Listening to painted whispered
Light on top forgotten hills
One secondary smile
To go that extra mile
To make me feel today
To make it go away
The chemistry is gone
Taken for a ride
Far away from you
No longer left inside
(repeat)
There no secrets in the door
Just a moment doing chores
(There's nothing there)
And there's something 4x
Next to nothing
And there's something 2x
It's a good day
and i'm riding
my new bike all through town
it's a good day
and i'm riding
my new bike all through town
check of an offence
i hope that this party never ends
cz i know that we've been waiting too long
and i know that we've been waiting too long
it all started when she broke my knee
it hurt, pain, fell off my bicycle
and i said "what's your name girl
and will i see you again?"
i remember that day things started out
we went riding unannounced
it was our very first date
it was our very first date
and then i told you i liked you
i liked your smile and your tattoos
would you be mine
forever?
it's a good day
and i'm riding
my new bike all through town
it's a good day
and i'm riding
my new bike all through town
i was on my bmx
it was red and black
chicago bulls fitted hat
with the red and black vans to match
i spotted shorty from the back
then i pulled up to the side, so fly
like what kinda bike is that?
she replied back nevermind that
what up with you?
how do you do?
well i was just on my way for ice cream
how about we make it for two?
and if we make it for two we can get half off
so that's like two for one
it'd be free for the second
we pedal to the dairy queen
girl you remind me of a fairy queen
you're the cutest thing that i've ever seen
on the real she had something that i've never seen
she had a tattoo of a butterfly
her back was different colours
she even named it tye-dye
we drove off and watched the sunshine in each other's eyes
it's a good day
and i'm riding
my new bike all through town
it's a good day
and i'm riding
my new bike all through town
it's a good day
and i'm riding
my new bike all through town
it's a good day
and i'm riding
Starting on the road
Carefully unload
Open-eyed and all the light is falling
Back and forth
And I can see it of course
Maybe I am in the way recalling
It's just you
Off again we go
Another seed to sow
Another part to keep in proper order
What have I begun?
Get away undone
I have seen the signs and I ignored them
Now it's you
And me
Divine
A circular design
(do do-do do-doo)
Time, and place, and mind
Points along the line
(do do-do do-doo)
Sitting in the park
Carefully remark
Everything is better when you're learning
You were in the dark
And I was in the dark
Everything is made to keep on turning
It's just you
And me
Divine
A circular design
(do do-do do-doo)
Time, and place, and mind
Points along the line
(do do-do do-doo)
You and me
Return to be
In orbit all the time
You turn away and around
I've been coming down
I've been coming down
You turn away and around
I've been coming down (You)
I've been coming down (and me divine)
(A circular design)
You turn away and around
I've been coming down (Time)
I've been coming down (and place and mind)
(Points along the line)
You turn away and around
I've been coming down
You were the chosen appointment to be who you are
I have been sitting and waiting and hoping apart
You are insight in the air in the night in the airplane
I am a light in a city your flight overcame
How is it all of the people can know who you are?
Off in the distance emitting a glow in the dark
I see you
Not too far
Maybe there's something to being the one who you are
Holding the thoughts in as you pull away in your car
I get to thinking a little too often &
All that I want is a little aloft &
Maybe it's all too much thinking and not enough heart
How is it all of the people can know who you are?
Off in the distance emitting a glow in the dark
All of it subtle and all of it very bizarre
How is it all of the people can know who you are?
I see you
Not too far
Armed to the teeth
You will sit at the fireside
We are the ones who have chosen the other side
It was easy to see
You were ready to be
And it all falls down
You rose up and rode away underground
it's never fair to say i never care about anything 'cause i always care about you
it doesn't seem like there's anything happening nothing ever seems happening without you
it never seems like i'm all alone when now everywhere that i search about is for you
there's always something that's worth believing in keep uncovering more at the thought it's for you
in the warm sun past the winter here and ever hear forever
in the motion frozen quiet still it's spoken heart unbroken
clouds before us unknown waters greater spaces hold no hiding
You hang around for a living
Somewhere between all the land & the sky
Being by never forgiving
Nobody knows you and neither do I
Birds may believe at a distance
You wear a grin and keep perfectly still
Driven away with persistence
I wonder if they have wondered or will ever wonder
Ever wonder
Farmer Jim hums when he's all alone
He may imagine you heard and he knew
You wouldn't hear what he might have known
I wonder whether he wonders if you ever wonder
Ever wonder
Scarecrow
Maybe the wind knows
Whether you wonder
Who's calling your name
Scarecrow
Maybe the wind knows
Whether you wonder
If you are to blame
Mother Earth's love whispered to me (and it wasn't her fault)
Real is a feeling and feeling is real
All of you are flowing through me
But you wouldn't know how to fathom or feel
When the wind blows
The wind knows
The wind knows
Scarecrow
Maybe the wind knows
Whether you wonder
Who's calling your name
Shame how nobody knows you
Only who wonders if you are to blame
Saving the grain of your golden domain
Without even reasoning why
The crows seem to know where you need them to go
Igniting a spark in their minds so they circle and fly
You hang around for a living
Blown in the wind like a pinned butterfly
Monarch of ever forgiving
Some of us wonder if you want to die
Would you want to die?
How I wonder
Ever wonder
Woke up today with a lay of the land
Feather in cap and the sun in the sand
It was easy
It was easy to understand
Everything suddenly falls out of sight
Every attachment is made of the light
That you offered
You have offered to give me life
CHORUS
See the sky & all the land together again
See the way the earth can stay below
Who do we think we are?
Everything plays a part
There are some things we are never meant to know
Having enjoyed all the meat from the bone
Is perfectly equal to being alone
It was even
But you breathe and I turn to stone
Everything suddenly looks like a sign
Easy to see from the outermost clime
I believe in what I leave in the way behind
CHORUS
And all the parts combine to one
And all of us around the sun
Everything will fall away
To order from the disarray
See the sun the shadows cast
From all the times I floated past
See the ocean spinning out
With all the hope & all the doubt
See the sky & all the land together again
See the way the earth can stay below
Who do we think we are?
Everything plays a part
There are some things we don't understand
Reasons on the other hand
Misery fell on the town when they lost all their looks
Spent all those years with their jobs and their scholarly books
With no one to share all their thoughts and their worldly-to-bes
Oh no
They got down and prayed a little more for a life that was free
Wanting a change they assessed how reform comes around
A wise man suggested they work in their smiles not their frowns
And all of a sudden it sounds like the town was to be
Oh yes
A happier place where they live out their personal dreams
La la la la la
La la la la la la la
La la la la la
La la la la la la la
Why oh why this
Town without love too much faith in above
Can you feel the
Force that it brings not to worry 'bout things
Just the stars in the sky all enjoying their time
With a hope for peace
First thing they do is to substitute pleasure for pain
Helping themselves figure out there's so much they can gain
The bad guys surrender their chemistry books at the fair
Oh well
Then frolic and take in the love that persists everywhere
La la la la la
La la la la la la la
La la la la la
La la la la la la la
Why oh why this
Town without love too much faith in above
Can you feel the
Force that it brings not to worry 'bout things
Just the stars in the sky all enjoying their time
With a hope for
Why oh why this
Town without love too much faith in above
Can you feel the
Force that it brings not to worry 'bout things
Just the stars in the sky all enjoying their time
All the people that kiss
All the children that wish
All the fresh living flowers
That spend all their hours
Outside in the rain
Just so happy you came
From so far for so long
With a welcoming song
Just to say
