Daylight over the Village Green early in the morning.
Daylight over the hills and valleys heralding the morning.
Daylight over the mountains, daylight on the Village Green,
Daylight over the field and the factories.
Another night has gone away and here comes yet another day.
See the early morning risers walking round with bleary eyes.
Worn out housewives grit their teeth ignoring new born babies' cries.
Look at all the busy people this way, that way, everywhere
Biting toast and swallowing tea and breakfast specials on the air.
Feel that daylight.
Feel the sunlight on my pillow and it stops my yawing.
I thank God that I'm still around to see another dawn in.
Daylight over the valleys, daylight lighting up the trees,
Daylight over the hillside,
Smile a smile and sing a song, another night has been and gone.
Middle-aged bankers crack their backs and wish they were young and in their teens,
Lonely spinsters dream of dating Roger Moore or Steve McQueen.
Health fanatics in their attics training for the Empire Games,
School boys dream of Captain Scarlet, battle ships and aeroplanes.
Feel that daylight, Daylight.
Daylight on the Village Green,
Daylight,
Field and the valleys,
Daylight falls and I'm lost in the big parade.
Hold my hand, darling, I'm afraid of the daylight.
Shade is dark.
Cool and languid for life or love.
Safe in shadows; never stark as the daylight.
As the daylight.
When I was just knee high,
My Momma told me, never try,
To be someone that I am not.
Yet over time I had forgot,
The wandering child, so lost at play:
He's found himself but he can't find his way,
In the daylight.
Oh, the daylight.
Ooh, daylight.
Ooh, daylight.
Life is short, and there's no turning back the time.
Fragrant meadows and rocks to climb in the daylight.
In my mind,
There's a corner I need to turn.
Lessons lived is a lesson learned in the daylight.
In the daylight.
I miss the forest shade,
You took me there, the promise I made,
To never leave the dark so deep.
Safe and soothing, yet I fear,
As I recall and now reflect,
I see it's safer to connect,
To the daylight.
Oh, the daylight. (Light.)
Ooh, daylight.
Ooh, daylight.
Daylight falls and I'm lost in the big parade.
Hold my hand, darling, I'm afraid of the daylight.
All of the nights when the light was low
And day seemed so far away
Darkness was endless
And I kept seeing ghosts turn in shades of gray
Wanted to see things just the way they used to be
Don?t want those shadows hanging over me
Daylight, wanna see daylight
Wanna see daylight that shines all around
Daylight, I wanna see clear blue light
Wanna see daylight that shines all around
Hours and hours in towers
On the back road of tragedy
Voices are calling
And fingers come on crawling all over me
Then when I sit up and my hands begin to shake
Suddenly, there I see the dawn break
Daylight, wanna see daylight
Wanna see daylight that shines all around
Daylight, wanna see clear blue light
Wanna see daylight that shines all around
Only one thing keeping me sane
Daylight, wanna see daylight
Wanna see daylight that shines all around
Daylight, I wanna see clear blue light
I wanna see daylight that shines all around
Daylight, I wanna see clear blue light
To my surprise, and my daylight
I saw sun rise, I saw sunlight
I am nothing, in the dark
And the clouds burst to show a daylight
Oooooo and the sun shines, Yeaaahhh on this star of mine
Oooooo and I realise, Oooooo couldn't live without
Oooooo couldn't part without, it
On a hill top, on a sky rise
Like a first born, child
At a full tilt, and at full flight
You see darkness, in the daylight
Oooooo and the sun shines, Yeaaahhh on this star of mine
Oooooo and I realise, Oooooo couldn't be without
Oooooo couldn't part without, daylight
Here I am waiting, I'll have to leave soon
Why am I holding on?
We knew this day would come, we knew it all along
How did it come so fast?
This is our last night but it's late
And I'm trying not to sleep
Cause I know, when I wake
I will have to slip away
[Hook]
And when the daylight comes I'll have to go
But tonight I'm gonna hold you so close
Cause in the daylight we'll be on our own
But tonight I need to hold you so close
Ooh-woah, ooh-woah, ooh-woah
Ooh-woah, ooh-woah, ooh-woah
Here I am staring at your perfection
In my arms, so beautiful
The sky is getting bright the stars are burning out
Somebody slow it down
This is way too hard
Cause I know, when the sun comes up
I will leave, this is my last glance
That will soon be memory
[Hook]
I never wanted to stop
Because I don't wanna start all over, start all over
I was afraid of the dark
But now it's all that I want, all that I want, all that
I want
[Hook x2]
Ooh-woah (Yeah), ooh-woah (Yeah), ooh-woah (Yeah)
(Rusty Young)
Standin' in the hurricane
Just to feel the midnight rain
It won't wash away the stain left on your heart
Starin' at a liar's moon
Hypnotized by your own gloom
Prayin' that the Daylight soon will rescue you
CHORUS:
Ah, she's callin' you
When will Daylight break through
Ah, she's beggin' you
Daylight, won't you come through
Daylight
Daylight
Another night what will you do
Caught between the sun and moon
Starin' out the window, when will Daylight come
And every moment moves so slow
Every move against the flow
Close your eyes and let it go, just let it go
REPEAT CHORUS
REPEAT CHORUS
Well, looks like I'm going again
I can't seem to believe myself
Here I go again, here I go again, here I go again
Listen to me now
It's five o'clock a.m.
But the party is still going strong
There's a conversation over in the corner
Big Ed is all on the lawn
And the FM music is groovin'
Folks getting down, getting down in their stocking feet
Sleepy eyes are peeping
From the window across the street
And it looks like daylight gonna catch me up again
Gonna catch me up again
Most people like getting up when I'm just getting in
Oh, it's the only, only time
It seems to be the only time that I can unwind
Swore to myself
Time and time and time again
That I would give up the night life and start layin' in
But it ain't easy, no no
Sayin' no to my friends
'Cause the real, 'cause the real
Set don't get started
Till everyone else is in
And it looks like daylight gonna catch me up again
Gonna catch me up again
Most people like getting up when I'm just getting in
It's the only, only, only, only time
When I can unwind
Daylight gonna catch me up
Gonna catch me up
Daylight gonna catch me up again
Daylight gonna catch me up
Gonna catch me up
Daylight gonna catch me up again
Daylight gonna catch me up
Gonna catch me up
Daylight gonna catch me up again
* Yo...put one up shackle me, not clean logic procreation
I did not invent the wheel I was the crooked spoke adjacent
While the triple sixers lassos keep angels roped in the basement
I walk the block with a halo and a stick poking your patience
Ya'll catch a 30 second flash visual
Dirty cooperative net platoon bloom head trip split Ridiculous
fathom the splicing of first generation
fuck up or trickle down anti hero smack (Cracking!)
I paste me game to zero hour completion greeting (Splash!)
Duke of early retirement pick a dream
American nightmare hogging the screen
I'll hold the door open so you can stumble in
if you'd stop following me around the jungle gym
Now it's honor and I spell it with the 'H' I stole from heritage
Merit crutch stole the wretched refuse of my teaming resonance
I promise temperance toward breed with a leaning conscious
Here the creed acts since responsive but my sports the war's the wattage
And I'm sleeping now (Wow!) Yeah the settlers laugh
You won't be laughing when your covered wagons crash
You won't be laughing when the buzzards drag your brother's flags to rags
You won't be laughing when your front lawn's spangled with epitaphs
You won't be laughing
And I hang my boots to rest when I'm impressed
So I triple knot em and forgot em
This origami dream is beautiful
but man those wings will never leave the ground
Without a feather and a lottery ticket, now settle down
All I ever wanted was to pick apart the day,
put the pieces back together my way.
All I ever wanted was to pick apart the day,
put the pieces back together my way.
All I ever wanted was to pick apart the day,
put the pieces back together my way.
All I ever wanted was to pick apart the day,
put the pieces back together my way.
Slacker bound intimate tabloid headlined with the pulse
Shimmy cross the centerfold, at a dead time engulfed
Diddy crumbs for the better souls with seven deadly stains
That hit a flame to crystal conscious
To results a low life counting on one hand what he's accomplished
Ok, link me to activism chain activate street sweep
Plug deteriorating xenobit Pendragon
I hock swords cores for the morbid spreading of mad men
(alley gospel)
Sinking their lincoln-log cabin and Charlie Chaplin waddle
I could zig zag and zig 'em again for the badge gleam
Sparker than my brick wall windows another thick installment of one night in Gotham without the wretched
Houston we have a problem
Attach an infested batch of city goblins
Who split holiday freak on a box cut cinema high road bellow
Head rips Watch red bricks turn yellow
Sort of similar to most backbones at camp Icarus
Were all feeling crimes congregating at pamper for bickering
Life's not a bitch life is a beautiful woman
Your only call her a bitch because she won't let you get that pussy
Maybe she didn't feel y'all shared any similar interests
Or maybe you're just an asshole who couldn't sweet talk the princess
Kiss the speaker wire Peter Pacifism pagan thresh hold
Stomach full of halo kibbles
Wings span cast black of porn visuals hear the duck hunt ticker tape
Vision and pick apart the pixels
I got a friend of polar nature and it's all peace
When I seek similar stars but can't sit at the same feast
Metal Captain!
This cat is asking if I've seen his little lost passion
I told him: "Yeah, but only when I pedaled past him"
All I ever wanted was to pick apart the day,
put the pieces back together my way.
All I ever wanted was to pick apart the day,
put the pieces back together my way.
All I ever wanted was to pick apart the day,
put the pieces back together my way.
All I ever wanted was to pick apart the day,
You're a long walk in a rain storm
You're a cut that refuses to heal
You're a dull ache that I can't shake
You're a cold that's clogging up my head
Or a broke watch keeping time still
Till you pull me in, pull me in and I can't fight, yeah
If the night is cold and you're feeling old
And the morning cuts you like a knife
And you're wearing thin, feel you're giving in
In the darkest hour of the night, you find daylight
You're a stalled car in the desert
You're a song I can't get off my mind
In a dire strait with no hope at all in sight
You come rushing in, rushing in with a lifeline, yeah
If the night is cold and you're feeling old
And the morning cuts you like a knife
And you're wearing thin, feel you're giving in
In the darkest hour of the night, you find daylight
Pull me closer to your breast
I need you finally, I confess
I'm drifting, I'm drifting
I love you but I hate you too
God only knows what I could do
I'm drifting, I'm drifting
Come on, give me one reason
Come on, find me in daylight
Come on, give me one reason
Come on, find me in daylight
If the night is cold and you're feeling old
And the morning cuts you like a knife
And you're wearing thin, feel you're giving in
In the darkest hour of the night, you'll find daylight
You'll find daylight
Come on, give me one reason
Come on, find me in daylight
Come on, give me one reason
Come on, find me in daylight
Come on, give me one reason
Daylight falls and I'm lost in the big parade.
Hold my hand, darling, I'm afraid of the daylight.
Shade is dark.
Cool and languid for life or love.
Safe in shadows; never stark as the daylight.
As the daylight.
When I was just knee high,
My Momma told me, never try,
To be someone that I am not.
Yet over time I had forgot,
The wandering child, so lost at play:
He's found himself but he can't find his way,
In the daylight.
Oh, the daylight.
Ooh, daylight.
Ooh, daylight.
Life is short, and there's no turning back the time.
Fragrant meadows and rocks to climb in the daylight.
In my mind,
There's a corner I need to turn.
Lessons lived is a lesson learned in the daylight.
In the daylight.
I miss the forest shade,
You took me there, the promise I made,
To never leave the dark so deep.
Safe and soothing, yet I fear,
As I recall and now reflect,
I see it's safer to connect,
To the daylight.
Oh, the daylight. (Light.)
Ooh, daylight.
Ooh, daylight.
Daylight falls and I'm lost in the big parade.
Hold my hand, darling, I'm afraid of the daylight.
Of the day...
My friend, give me a minute here
You have no idea how to frame me
"Brother Ali is this, Brother Ali is that"
You ain't been right yet
So ok I'll do it myself
Ant, you got me?
[Verse 1:]
Big Brother the beast I'm showing my teeth
Feel it all in the air it's too potent to breathe
Explosive with the free, got a heavy one I wrote up my sleeve
I could post up or go for the three
Versatile with it I'm grinding until I get it
Mindless of the defined limits or consequences
I defy critics I ain't scientific
I find my intrinsic vibe and I ride with it
Vocals no nothing other than soul touching
So if they land in yours it's just a home-coming
If they don't go there they might perish
Land on deaf ears but die unembarassed
You don't need to hear my race in the song
You hear the plane that I'm on
Your whole face change when I'm on
Your ears might help you see
Fuck hearing me I need you to feel like me
[Chorus: x2]
Daylight
Let the dark side slide right on out you
Don't deny it announce it to the Daylight
Let it get inside of you 'cause you're not alive
until you open up your eyes
[Verse 2:]
I never asked my brothers to put that crown on me
Now they want to frown on me, look down on me
Pardon me I don't think I'm hurting anybody
Just because I took shahadah but I'm cursing at the party
Ain't showing I'm holy just showing the whole me
Ya'll just pretend to be whatever your role be
Don't get me wrong preist and rabbi innam
but maybe that's why the masses don't respond
Can't sit and nit pick but miss the big shit
Expect us not to see the contradictions
Want us to listen and join your religion
I ain't got a pot to piss in who ya'll kidding
I believe in the Qu'ran and all that's within it
The concepts and all of the prophets that are mentioned
But I talk directly to God so if I'm sinning
ya'll ain't got nothing to do with me repenting
[Chorus x2]
[Verse 3:]
If I'm an open book this is how I'm supposed to look
I got to show it all and don't be shook
So they ask me if I'm black or white, I'm neither
Race is a made up thing I don't believe in it
My genes tie me to those that despised me
Made a living killing the ones that inspired me
I ain't just talking about singing and dancing
I was taught life and manhood by black men
So I'm a product of that understanding
And a small part of me feels like I am them
Does that make me a liar maybe
but I don't want the white folks that praise me to think they can claim me
'Cause you didn't make me
You don't appreciate what I know to be great yet you relate to me
and that frustrates me and what can I say
'cause I know that I benefit from something I hate
But make no mistake our connection ain't fake
It's never too late to clear off the slate
You follow my tape then you know What I'm about
If something comes up then it must come out
I can see the daylight
And I feel it's right
That she's flowing now
She's flowing 'til it's through
A never-ending darkness
A never-ending night
Now she flies away
To walk upon the clouds
Can you hear me singing?
Can you see me lying
Down on the floor
Still laughing like a child?
My head is full of voices
My head is full of lights
So please let me go
Please let me run away
Silly laughing when I come home
There's just no reason to call
I try to leave you to forget you
I try to leave you to love you
try to leave you to love
leave to love you
I can see the daylight
And I feel it's right
That she's flowing now
She's flowing 'til it's through
A never-ending darkness
A never-ending night
Now she flies away
To walk upon the clouds
Silly laughing when I come home
There's just no reason to call
I try to leave you to forget you
I try to leave you to love you
try to leave you to love
leave you to love you
Silly laughing when I come home
There's just no reason to call
I try to leave you to forget you
I try to leave you to love you
try to leave you to love
I've seen sad
Dark times
And I have waited for the sun to rise
I've seen sad
Dark times
And waited for rain
All I know is whenever I am far from home
There are nights when words seem out of place
Ba da da
I have walked alone and the stars have tried to guide me home
I have walked alone
Lost in the fog
All I find are faded pictures from a distant life
And I wish to God I could see your eyes
Ba da da
I ain't got no magic potion
All I know is that we're better of together than we ever were alone
So if you let me try
Just give me time,
Woman I will find a way to help you ease your troubled mind
Ba da da
If the morning comes I'll be thankful just to see the sun
But the daylight seems so far away
I've got a catacomb with fur covered Styrofoam
So come over now and sleep
Time isn't here again, wasted thoughts that could've been
Now we can devise our plan
Daylight, daylight
Daylight won't find us here
I've got a catacomb with flags that flew fifty years ago
Let sleep overcome your mind
God isn't safe again, molest trees and chop down men
So we must revise our plan
Daylight, daylight
Daylight won't find us here
Daylight, daylight
Daylight won't find us here
Daylight, daylight
Daylight :
If you can believe you're turning
All the world that broke your mind,
Then I can do something for you
Even though you're lost in time.
You won't have to be my heaven.
I won't have to be your friend.
Daylight comes every time it's calling.
Daylight
Daylight, it goes away again now.
Don't let go.
Don't let go of your heart.
Don't let go.
Don't let go of your heart.
Feel like your skin is burning
Into many drops of rain.
But it's doing nothing to me
Drowning in a sea of pain.
You won't have to be my heaven.
I won't have to be your friend.
Daylight
Daylight comes every time it's calling.
Daylight
Daylight, it goes away again now.
Don't let go.
Don't let go of your heart.
Don't let go.
Don't you know who you are?
Don't let go.
Don't let go of your heart.
Don't let go.
She slipped up on daylight
Night was her best companion I've heard it told
She slipped up on daylight
Crack in the sidewalk she up and disappeared
And sang, o' daylight, o' daylight, o' daylight, o' daylight
All the people gathered round
Said, "Gosh, we really liked that girl."
CHORUS
And a boy said he always knew
She was falling slowly going nowhere
And some boy said,
"You really should have been here, I swear
She up and disappeared, it was really too weird."
She slipped up on daylight
Caught in the morning hour she met her end, yes
She slipped up on daylight
Crack in the sidewalk she disappeared
It's for the best
O' daylight, o' daylight
O' daylight, o' daylight
CHORUS
Story is she lost her boyfriend
In some bar some months ago
Spent her nights since then
Calling and falling going nowhere
A reporter from the tabloids came
And they sang, "Gosh, we really liked that girl."
CHORUS
Trust me, you'll see where you are
'Cause it's over now
Yeah it's over now
And I mean it, the day will go wrong
Go wrong, go wrong
And as the daylight comes
Don't waste it all again
Oh yeah
Gotta let it go
And as the daylight comes
Don't waste it all again
And as the daylight comes
Don't waste it all again
Oh yeah
Gotta let it go
Trust me, you'll see where you are
'Cause it's over now
Yeah it's over now
And I mean it, the day will go wrong
Go wrong, go wrong
When you see that the time is gone
And the world has moved along
Gotta let it go
Gotta let it go
Why do you wanna know?
Why do you need to know?
Why do you wanna know about it?
And as the daylight comes
Don't waste it all again
And as the daylight comes
Don't waste it all again
Oh yeah
She's got me tied in a knot
That's what I thought she'd do
Don't ask me what's on my mind
I'm fine, I'll push on through
Not much to see on this angry street
So I'll sleep the day away
Look past my barnacled mind
And in time I'll roll the stone away
While we still have the daylight
I might look these lessons in the eye
While we still have the daylight
I might become some brand new kinda guy
Brass knuckles and birds on a wire retire
But no one gets free
I'd pay to tear these chains away
This steel sympathy
Cut bait and cold black forty weight
No one can sing for me
They fall down with grease in their eyes and cry
How could this come to be?
While we still have the daylight
I might look these lessons in the eye
While we still have the daylight
I might become some brand new kinda guy
While we still have the daylight
I might look these lessons in the eye
While we still have the daylight
Daylight, leave the shadows falling behind
Put your depressed sedations to rest
There's nothing, nothing to medicate
Let the rush of the spirit find me
I'll go, I'll go for daylight
Daylight, leave the black life and dark filled rage
And let all obsessions fade
The constant, the constant is love
With you, with you
Hey love, hey love
Hey love, hey love
We all wanna rise
Seconds, seconds they fly by, yeah
We all wanna rise
We all wanna see light
We wanna see light
We all wanna rise
Seconds, seconds still fly by, yeah
We all wanna rise
We all wanna see light
We wanna see light, yeah, yeah
Daylight comes to meet you on the road
Like a prodigal son, a prodigal hope
That you gave up on when you were young
Yeah, but daylight is coming on
We live on the edge
On the edge of a darkness oh
We live on the edge
On the edge of a darkness oh
But daylight is coming on
Heaven bends low for the naked and the poor
To settle up a debt, to settle up the score
To set up a table on the edge of a war
Cause we’ve been bleeding on the edge of a sword
We live on the edge
On the edge of a darkness oh
We live on the edge
On the edge of a darkness oh
But daylight is coming on
The boardwalk is painted red with the blood
Of a thousand prospective heroes but one
Still cries out beyond all the grave and the flood
Where the blackest abysses cannot overcome
Cause we live on the edge
On the edge of a darkness oh
We live on the edge
On the edge of a darkness oh
Time rolls away
For The One
Who waited
She carries me
On the edge
Of breaking
Sweet memories
Of the one
Who haunts me
This is a ride
On your coat tails
Was I wrong to be here ?
To depend on you my dear
Was I wrong ?
To wait for you
Give your love away
No matter what tomorrow brings
I'll be waiting in the daylight
I'll be waiting in the daylight
Give your love away
No matter what tomorrow brings
I'll be waiting in the daylight
I'll be waiting in the daylight
I climbed the highest of hills
To find you
And it's not the last time I'll fail
Cause there's a devil in the details
Was I wrong to be here ?
For your landslide
Was I wrong ?
To wait for you
Give your love away
No matter what tomorrow brings
I'll be waiting in the daylight
I'll be waiting in the daylight
Give your love away
No matter what tomorrow brings
I'll be waiting in the daylight
I'll be waiting in the daylight
She had it
She had it
Or so I
Or so I
She had it
She had it
Or so I
Or so I thought
She had it all
She had it all
Give your love away
No matter what tomorrow brings
I'll be waiting in the daylight
I'll be waiting in the daylight
Give your love away
No matter what tomorrow brings
I'll be waiting in the daylight
I'll be waiting in the daylight
I'll be waiting in the daylight
I'll be waiting in the daylight
I'll be waiting, waiting
I'll be waiting in the daylight
I could use
A moment of your time
If I could prove
A way that we'd survive
Would you hold on
To this
My dear
Would you hold on
To this
Is it daylight? I hardly ever notice
I hardly feel the sun and I never feel anyone
Is it daylight? I hardly ever notice
I hardly feel the sun and I never feel anyone
And if you could hold me now, oh baby
Then we could go around again
And if you could hold me now, oh baby
Then we could go around again
Is it daylight? I hardly ever notice
I hardly feel the sun and I never feel anyone
Is it daylight? I hardly ever notice
DAYLIGHT LYRICS
I’ve been asked a bunch of times what the heck i’m sayin in this song (aka what are the lyrics) they go a little something like this…
P.S. the gas is shut off in my building due to a leak and a rumor of the building almost exploding… and while we didn’t die then, there is now no heat… so lets see if we make it through the night.
DAYLIGHT
we cut the legs off of our pants
threw our shoes into the ocean
sit back and wave through the daylight
sit back and wave through the daylight
slip and slide on subway grates
these shoes are poor mans ice skates
fall through like change in the daylight
fall through like change in the daylight
i miss yellow lines in my roads
some color on monochrome
maybe i’ll paint them in myself
maybe i’ll paint them in myself
these sidewalks liquid then stone
building walls and an old pay phone
it rings like all through the daylight
it rings like all through the daylight
chorus
and in the daylight we can hitchhike to maine
i hope that someday i’ll see without these frames
and in the daylight i don’t pick up my phone
cause in the daylight anywhere feels like home
I have five clocks in my life
and only one has the time right
i’ll just unplug it for today
ill just unplug it for today
open hydrant rolled down windows
this car might make a good old boat
and float down grand street in daylight
and float down grand street in daylight
and with just half of a sunburn
new yellow lines that i earned
step back and here comes the night time
step back and here comes the night time
chorus
and in the daylight we can hitchhike to maine
i hope that someday i’ll see without these frames
and in the daylight i don’t pick up my phone
Open your eyes, if you want to
But if you don't I can't blame you
It's in the air you breathe, slowly removing you from the fold
Our world is slowly drowning and nothing I'm preaching is new
Cry for our salvation because civilization is gone
You'll never see your children alive again, God bless this dawn
It's not safe to go outside anymore / Take your chances when you step into the light
You can turn to your TV to absorb the eye-candy
As the radio radiation starts a burn cycle inside
You can have yourself a coke, slightly chilled but packed with dope
Watch the nail dissolve, it's never the same for you again
It's not safe to go outside anymore / Take your chances when you step into the light
Bridge
Has everything you've counted on
Left you right here with no warning
Have your dreams become invisible
Wait with me dear till the morning
Light will make the night burnout
Hold on
Daylight is coming
To break the dawn
Daylight is coming
The brightest stars are falling down
Is hope lost in the black skies
The darkness must precede the dawn
Wait with me here till the sunrise
Wait, your night will soon fade out
Hold on
Daylight is coming
To break the dawn
Daylight is coming
Daylight is coming
Hold on
Daylight is coming
To break the dawn
Daylight is coming [Repeat]
[Instrumental Bridge]
I do believe you don't need any proof
But that won't give me any truce, now
You see that nothing can appease me all the same
That's why I stand aloof
You lay awash and undecided
You're at the mercy of my moody tides
Why don't you drop your
cosy creed of solid thoughts
And change your point of view
By sitting on a treetop, and...
Fill the daylight with your wild call
Leaves now whistle and quiver
To tell your own will not to stall
The sun will sting my eyes up here above
But I just keep exposing myself
The rain is holy water sprinkling
and it's heresy to shun it all
So I'll let its touch erode me
and I...
Fill the daylight with my fierce call
Branches are creaking and
assurance's breaking down
Crawl. Crawl over me.
Take what you can.
Waste. Waste everything hidden beneath your plans.
And I'm settling.
Walked on.
Taking advantage of my love.
You only care about yourself.
Have you ever thought about how I feel?
So used and worn down.
Drain. Drain my head.
I don't want to feel anymore.
Silently choking on my words.
Walked on.
Taking advantage of my love.
You only care about yourself.
Have you ever thought about how I feel?
Outside of me there's no one there.
There was never a chance that you could care.
I'm seeing visions in my dreams.
Of all the things you think I'll be.
That's the thing it means everything to me.
But I can't bring myself to be that way just yet.
It's been a long time between us,
And I always know it's what you want.
I'm opening up to let you down.
I'm sorry, I can't be that right now.
Forgive me, I just wanted to feel free.
Sometimes I feel I might have made your life a mess.
That's the thing it means everything to me.
I can't bring myself to be that way just yet.
Outside of me there's no one there.
The end is far away.
Not getting too much sleep these days.
These things I can't explain.
Just wishing for an early grave,
but they don't understand me.
I wanna be selfish.
Only reason I'm still alive,
Can't stand to see my mother cry.
I'll suffer through.
Only reason I won't die,
Can't stand the tears in her eyes.
I'll be home soon.
The saddest thing is,
it's the only thing that I want.
I wonder sometimes why
I don't just give up and take my life.
And they have no idea,
that I'm so close to my dying day.
I hate this feeling.
There's no healing.
There's no coming back from this hell.
(I wish that I could make you see)
(I wish that I could face today)
I cannot escape, or put my mind at ease.
With all these restless nights.
Oh, how they destroy me.
Devouring all of my love.
To get back to a place
I know I've been dreaming of.
In my brain I wish I tasted all the flesh of the world,
Lick the skin off of my fellow man.
I can't tell you all the times I thought about trying
you.
I'm overwhelmed, I'm overwhelmed.
Am I still human? Does my heart still beat?
Knowing my evil thoughts, they aren't enough.
This isn't me.
And all that's left are bones and skulls.
Leaving me with a sense of loss, a lack of hope.
There's no hope.
Ignore the signs so I can get away with my fantasy.
So I can live my life with my disease.
In my brain I wish I tasted all the flesh of the world,
Lick the skin off of my fellow man.
I can't tell you all the times I thought about trying
you.
And I know that it's cold
I'll grab your scarf, you grab my coat
And your nose, it's getting colder
As it runs use my sleeve
And just hold on tight
To the jacket that covers me
I'm feeling lonely
My eyes red and blue
Beating myself over you
And it hurts to remember
All the things that were said
Everyday it gets harder to picture you in my head
And I know that it's cold I'll get by and live
But I'll die alone
You don't even miss me
And it's sick, it's oh, so sick
How I'm doing my head in over this
Well I can't let this go
This is way too hard to love, but not to have
I don't want to see you anymore
It's useless. I tried but to no avail,
To tell you how much I know. How much I care.
Come home.
Breathe until your lungs fail.
You can sing till you go deaf.
Everyday that you don't call her,
I can feel it. You're coming down.
I am sick.
I am horrified at everything I hear.
The youngest daughter lost her way.
Everyday repeats itself again.
The cycle of our misery, it drives us all insane.
Please come home.
The poison takes away from us
Now you're sick to death from all the drugs.
Breathe until your lungs fail.
You can sing till you go deaf.
Everyday that you don't call her,
Speak up, I'm listening.
Tell me about what you don't know.
I'm out here struggling.
I can't form words.
Can't take anymore.
There's nothing that I love.
Life is way too short, just not short enough.
Day in, Day out.
My life ain't what it used to be.
I'm out here suffering.
Why can't you see?
Can't take anymore.
There's nothing that I love.
Hey, I'm sure I've been here before.
I must be in my living room again.
It's a mess but I'm used to this.
I guess my mother came home with her friend.
It's bad enough, I don't need anything.
Least of all, this.
You would cry. I would gladly die.
I would give my life to ease the pain.
It's bad enough, I don't need anything.
Least of all, this.
You are the one who takes and never gives back anything at all,
I want to blame you.
Upstairs, around the railing, you can find me chained to my respect,
I want to blame you now.
I dream of a place where you stayed a child.
I wake up believing it's real.
Dear sister, I wanted to save your life.
You're just as afraid.
You are the one who takes and never gives back anything at all,
I want to blame you.
Upstairs, around the railing, you can find me chained to my respect,
It's only the pain that I've caused you
What about mine?
I wish that I could say that it's okay.
Tell you I'm fine
You said things I cant repeat
After all these years, I still can't sleep
Ever since I was a child, I felt it was there
And now I want to forget problems
And it's just not fair
You said things I can't repeat
After all these years, I still can't sleep
I'm messed up because of you
I can't love
I took time to think.
The time it took, took time away from me.
And I'll never get it back.
If you say you disagree.
You can't 'cause you said those things to me.
And let's just say, we both got our heads on straight.
We're thinking clearer now, but we both agree.
This isn't for the best.
It's ripping us apart.
It's tearing us to shreds.
My Mistake to make.
My own risk to take.
And everybody hates me.
I'm just in your way.
And everything is gray.
And everybody hates you.
Tell me all the things that I don't understand.
You wonder why I push away.
You opened up a wound. Taught me to be a man.
Now you're just not listening.
I don't want to be like that.
A spitting image of a man I once knew.
I can't believe I fell for it.
I feel so used.
Tell me all the things that I don't want to hear.
You think that you felt all my pain.
You opened up a wound. You should open up your ears.
Because you're just not listening.
I don't want to be like that.
A spitting image of a man I once knew.
I can't believe I fell for it.
I feel so used.
All across the uni, for all of us to see.
There's no room for both of us.
Part ways at sea.
I grew up in the woods with nobody's help.
Build my own fort in the trees to keep to myself.
I want to be erased from life if you're still there
All across the uni, for all of us to see.
There's no room for both of us.
Part ways at sea.
I would wait for you to come.
A puppet, you see.
Lose my eyes under your couch.
I can see, but I can't hear.
I want to be erased from life if you're still there.
It hurts me to know how small I really am.
Kept me safe from evil things.
I've got this sinking feeling coming up inside.
I can't let this go into my head.
I can't be here.
You can't trust me.
Everyday I take the long way home.
I see nothing of me in the things I own.
Everyday I ask myself why life ain't fair.
Why am I praying to a god I know isn't there?
It's the dead of winter.
It's freezing cold.
I'll just sit here all alone.
Everyday I take the long way home.
I see nothing of me in the things I own.
Everyday I ask myself why life ain't fair.
I left my head at home,
Buried in the backyard with the dog.
I've thought of leaving more times than once.
I'm leaving you all alone.
I tried so hard to be the rock,
But all I felt like was a wet sponge.
I want to run, I just can't.
The things it takes to be a man.
I'm on a road.
I'm not proud of the things I have done.
Don't let my living bring you down.
You'll never know how much it hurts to nod when I'm the
son.
I'll never stand and watch you drown.
I'm under a spell.
This isn't what I want for us.
We've held it all together this long.
My spines deep as well.
My heart is bigger than you know.
This family is just a sad song.
I want to run, I just can't.
The things it takes to be a man.
I'm on a road.
I'm not proud of the things I have done.
Don't let my living bring you down.
You'll never know how much it hurts to nod when I'm the
son.
I live in harmony with worms,
underneath the dirt and the soil.
My home away from noise.
I want wake up there.
I wish they'd make a grave.
The guilt I feel for this.
I'm clean, but my world's a mess.
I wait, I wait for it.
Your ghost, I wish it haunted me.
These last few months I felt a lack of love.
I felt the weight drop down on us.
I want wake up there.
I wish they'd make a grave.
I wish you knew I cared.
Follow me down, down into a hole in the ground.
I dug it just for you, exactly how you wanted me to.
It's been over a year.
The snow isn't what brought us to tears.
The ambulance came way too late,
And they lied to your face.
I'm calling to see how things are there.
I want you to know how much I care.
I wish I could take away your pain.
I fear I come home to see your grave.
Mother, please dont cry.
I'm states away and begging to die.
I left you all alone.
I'm scared everytime I come home.
We made it through the mess.
The doctor said they're doing the best.
Their best just wasn't enough,
and we cried all through the month.
I'm calling to see how things are there.
I want you to know how much I care.
I wish I could take away your pain.
I can't talk to you.
You just can't see through to anything I do.
I just wish I could tell you.
How much do you know?
I can never tell.
I'm sick of writing songs about killing myself.
I close my eyes and remember all the times you said,
"I promise things will get better."
But they still haven't yet.
I don't blame you, but I blame someone.
I'm still stuck here.
I keep trying to forget all those things that happened, I
just can't.
Time to unclench my fists.
Save your breath.
Don't you break your neck.
I'm seeing signs inside my head.
A car crash in the woods.
I'm saving things that I think you'll need.
On and on until you bleed.
Could I be imagining worse things?
Take me for granted and a sin.
I'll be in on it.
Feeling all this energy .
Call me up when you feel sick.
I'll be in on it.
I haven't been eating much this week.
Eating's for the strong.
Sleeps for the weak.
Falling in the same routine I see.
I'll be in on it.
Feeling all this energy.
Call me up when you feel sick.
I'll be in on it.
Don't touch me.
I feel hurt when you leave.
Nobody could understand what this does to me.
And I know just what I need,
Autumn leaves and fallen trees.
To feel the cold beneath my feet.
I'll be in on it.
Feeling all this energy.
Call me up when you feel sick.
5 years old. 10x10. My sentence began.
Now 22, and it hasn't ended yet.
I swear to god that one day I'll make you see....
You don't know what this did to me.
I cried myself to sleep.
Too many nights I can't keep secret anymore.
Youth no more.
I've lived with this ever since I was a kid.
I spent the end of last October crying on your shoulder.
I'll just never win.
We're going through this,
I'm not even there. I'm never there.
My mind, it could use a little peace and quiet.
My soul wouldn't mind a warm place to hide.
My ears are red and sore from always standing in the snow.
My lungs need air. I spent it on all the "thanks yous" and "goodbyes."
I'm scared. I'm helpless. I'm shaking. I'm weak.
My bones, I feel them breaking.
I'm tired of losing against me.
I'm lost. I can't win.
My tongue is bleeding red from all the things I can't say.
My hands are clawing at the dirt to dig up anything.
I can't say I didn't wish for this before.
I'm ashamed. I don't deserve to be here anymore.
I'm scared. I'm helpless. I'm shaking. I'm weak.
My bones, I feel them breaking.
I'm tired of losing against me.
I'm not perfect, I'm not good enough
But it's over, cut the broken wire.
I believed you, you believed me
The stupid things made, tears fallen away
I deceived you, you deceived me
Broken rules, broken time, it's over it's fine.
It's been a really hard decision, I won't get back
If you miss me, just forget it, it's over now
We both know, we must go,
Different directions, each one goes alone!
And tomorrow no more sorrow
No more lies to say
Break all letters, all my letters
Keep the best of all we've
Said, last half of year
But it's over, we'll remain as friends.
You'll be stronger, I'll be stronger
Destiny wants us free, no more you and me
You'll discover, I've discovered
How well I'm right now, without you around
And tomorrow no more sorrow
No more lies to say
Break all letters, all my letters
Just starts the day the sea breeze knocked me down
We're on vacation, man lets hang around
No time for sleep, my friend enjoy this time
The sun and beach are here around, you've gotta wake up!
Hey Hey liven up.
Liven up the party
If we lose control
Don't tell us to stop
Take yourself
A drink it's summer season
Lets prove that we're alive.
Now I am! Ready to hit the streets
Pick up my friends coz they're still asleep
Assault the party, this is getting big!
There's a crazy fiesta tonight!
Preparing to the party, get ready everybody
This night is gonna be our night.
The fun is never ending
You gotta be attending
Pretending is never going to end
20 years are done, Grew so fast and didn't know
Arbitrary fate again, a year lost, but will be more.
It's easy to complain and roar coz your tears are on the floor
You're fragile so vulnerable, But you're stronger than before
Stand up, face all your fears
We'll stay together through the years
That's a reason to go on
You've gotta, stand up, you're not alone
Fight untill all hopes are gone.
We're together, carry on
True friends are not gone, but all strangers have forgot
Your existence, name and face, we're not starting any war
You witness all this evidence and you're closed behind a door
It's useless to complain and roar, when you can only stare at the ceiling
Endure my friend, it's almost over
The worst is past; your weakness is something won't last
When you'll be ok, we'll go on holiday!
Our love is something true
Your bro's are here with you
There's no reason to give up he fight
We'll make it together
There's no more bad weather
Now we're standing here at your side
Running and running
Away from nobody
As time tries to get us
And make us grow up
You can not escape, you can not escape
You'll never break away, now see your
Time flows like shooting star
Just live it for today
And I know, it's something beautiful.
And I know, It's unpredictable.
And I know it's something to believe.
And I know we won't stay young forever.
Running and Running
You're leaving a story
As time tries to get you
And make you grow up
You can not escape, you can not escape!
You'll never break away, now see your
Time flows like shooting star
Just live it for today.
Nanananana It's something beautiful
Nanananana It's unpredictable
Nanananana It's something to believe
Nanananana we won't stay Young forever
You can be 81 or 23
You write the story
Of who you wanna be
It means that everything's allowed
It's beautiful!
You can be 81 or 23
You write the story
Of who you wanna be
It means that everything's allowed
Imagine that you're on vacation
And you hear the perfect song
Fast chords, you go crazy
You feel better than before
Imagine that you're at a rock show
And you hear the perfect song
Fast chords and a riff, you singalong.
Next day you're blank out.
It fade away, and you turn mad.
When you're all alone, try to remember
This is an endless road to find the perfect song
I can't recall your melody and ryme
You're leaving me behind, now you're gone
And I regret, those stupid things I said
Misplaced things in my head, I was wrong
It seems so harder when I'm trying
To recall the perfect song
Fast chords drove me crazy
Don't feel crazy anymore
I traveled to the furthest limits
To recall the perfect song
Fast chords, and a riff to singalong.
This song made magic
This the song that made me smile
When I'm all alone, try to remember
Spend all the day talking, who are you to criticize?
You're filled with your frustration, now it's time to say goodbye
It's a wasted generation
Throw the rock and hide the hand
It's messed up in your mind
It's messed up and you're blind!
Not in my life! You attack and I survive
Now step behind, won't fight back to feed the fire
Not in my life! Defense and no revenge
Truth beats a lie.
It's illusion, it's ambition
It's the reason, keep this straight
Like hard work with no advantages
Needs to feat this ignorance.
It's a wasted generation
Throw the rock and hide the hand.
Unreal lives behind a mirror
Desktop snakes, what you pretend?
And the growth, the hate growth is never ending
When pressure is overwhelming.
I prove that I was right.
And the fight, the fight is never ending
The envy is not surrending!
Illusion is our pride.
And to blame is just a waste of time.
There's no beginning, I don't see the end.
And the lies trying to suffocate
Port lights tell me how to go home
Lying in a small boat and dreaming about
Walking through stars and reliving past stories
Of no pain and glory
Now's all back to me
Welcome to my seventeen
Another time
All the things you left behind
Now are alive
Welcome to those pretty nights
Under the moon
Welcome to my seventeen
Night lights show me where I'm going
Singing old melodies and dreaming about
Running away to a place with new stories
I'll come back I promise.
One think I will keep forever
Crazy days, doing whatever
Driving the whole day along
To finally play my favorite song
Too much cash, Too much time inside the van
Hot or cold, near or far don't even care
Live on tour is such a crap
Become our friend and come with us
We enjoy life playing rock
From Barcelona to Bangkok
And that's the way!
Coz every day we wake up knowing that
A thousand shows will bring the fun
And that's OK!
Another thing I'll keep forever
Crazy shows, not ending ever
Not knowing where to sleep tonight
And macaroni every lunch
Lot of fun, lot of friends lots of everything
Play on stage, play alone don't even care
Live on tour is such a crap
Some good news today
Everything seems great
The war is over no one dies
Cancer is not a problem we're all alright
Cities on the moon
Flying cars, it's true
But every time I look around
I only see pollution in your eyes
We are all just getting tired of the media, reality is a shame
Coz every time I turn on the stereo there's no good news again
Society's messed up, it's mass hysteria, we always find someone to blame
Using fear to control your criterion this is how we live today
Kind shows on TV
All nations agree
The hunger is over, no one dies
Difference's not a problem, we're all right
Animal protect, friendship and respect
But everytime I look around
It's not a perfect planet, it's a fraud!
Let's join all together against this fake
We're sick of hearing liars just go away
Let's join all together here starts the change
The change to make things right.
(So) Read between the lines, think for yourself, think what you wanna!
Imagine a new word for discomfort, think what you wanna!
To all my friends, who care about?
Lifetime is short, don't fall apart
The reason why, I sing this song
Is to make the most, enjoy and die for your own rule.
Frame by frame, it's the same all over again
Stand together, any action is gonna remain in vain
Lost in words?, my friends are here to explain
Make this moment last forever
Take this song straight to the grave
Maybe tomorrow I'll be sorry,
Doesn't mean I've done ok.
Arrive to your final destination
Look back to all the steps you've made
It doesn't matter the path you've taken
Or the time you've spent away
So take my hand
Waste this day lost in the city highlights
I don't care, anymore
Take my hand
This is our last chance; I'm sad, coz tomorrow.
I won't be there, anymore.
Is this heading to an ending?
Is this driving me to hell?
But you're the only thing I left here
Hope you someday understand
Only few things left to remain
Our destiny and childhood dreams
But the end is never able
To destroy our memories
Maybe I'll regret it once you are gone
It's seems much better, forget it right now.
All the injuries and scars kept in my heart
Histories of pleasure and pain over time
Take my hand.
California, woke up screaming.
All the night
A nightmare didn't let her sleep all right
In her dream people lived in misery
While trying to be, as seen on TV.
That girl is different, unusual.
Follows no template.
Role models, fashions
Are those simple things
She doesn't understand.
People working for the lowest wage
And spending it on crap.
Trying to reach the complete happiness,
And forgetting who they are.
People taking care of sex appeal,
Scared of denial.
She's the one that breaks the rule, and knows
That she's not fitting.
She's gonna break
The rules, no fashions, she will follow.
She's gonna break
All stereotypes again.
Understand the way she feels,
When someone points at her and fears.
Understand the way she lives,
It's not so different, so understand it now.
Superheroes, she never trust at all
Or prefab models she cannot allow
She's proud to be, and never wanabe.
Another copy as seen on tv
That girl is different, unusual.
Follows no template.
Role models, fashions
Are those simple things
First time I saw him, appeared showing off, his Ferrari over the mall
Skid in my face, what a jerk what a moron, acts big but (he) thinks so small
Coz when he's on stage it's all over
His hairline rocks, he takes over
But he's a dick, when he's sober.
Hooks up all chicks, he is a heart robber.
His reality is painted in black and white
It's not real it's not right
There are so many colors in this world.
I think this guy is 2 cool 4 school.
But maybe after showing ignorance
You feel best pumping your chest.
Tough guy go find someone else to fool.
I think this guy is 2 cool 4 school.
So one, two, three, don't you look over me; your confidence means nothing at all
Three, four, five, super swagger has arrived, now the party is going to die.
Coz when he's on stage it's all over
His hairline rocks, he takes over
But he's a dick, when he's sober.
Hooks up all chicks, he is a heart robber.
Coz when he's on stage it's all over
His hairline rocks, he takes over
But he's a dick, when he's sober.
A day with sun and no rain is something I'd like to see.
What could be worse than knowing you're cursed?
Black cloud, just let me live my life like the rest.
Good luck, you never even gave me a chance.
I'm tied to words I can't undo.
I'm helpless, this can't be true.
What could be worse than knowing you're cursed?
Black cloud, just let me live my life like the rest.
Good luck, you never even gave me a chance.
Broken mirrors surround me, reflecting pieces of
Kick into the stage again
We’re gonna play our set my friend
Lights can go off anyway
So we're not stopping
Met some freaks along the way
Tried to help to find our faith.
Thanks to all the people
Thanks to you we're playing
Your parents can yell loud
Your exes can make you remember all your past mistakes
There’s no reason to give up
The only thing that matters now it's that you’re
feeling great!
Living in this world to play
We’d like to do this everyday
This is our ambition
And you are our best reason
We won’t stop because of the rain
Car crash, illness or love pain
Sing along another time
This is our fuel.
And that's ok; there are no reasons to complain
Almost today, there are no reasons to leave this way
This is the way! Yeah!
No matter what we do, no matter what we play
Friends forever will remain
They are who, come to the shows to see us play
Don't really care if they have to pay
Never thought that someday could play
In a show like this, and scream to you
are you ready?!
Never thought that I would own a guitar
But now we're here, let's start it all! (let's go!)
We've made it, with no aid
I'm sure you won't believe me
You tried to defeat me,
Now all I can say's I hate you!
Always thought that I would get old
only sitting and following orders in an office
I'm fucking glad, and I'm okay
My life is only mine, I'll do just what I want!
We've made it, with no aid
I'm sure you won't believe me
You tried to defeat me,
All you can say's I hate you!
That guy that is stage diving
That other just keep bouncing
Hey you that the security guard's on you
All of you listen daylight, you must enjoy this great
light
I should shut up because I'm uninspired!
We've made it, with no aid
I'm sure you won't believe me
You tried to defeat me,
Here I am again, thinking about the meaning of my soul
Maybe I'm misunderstood, but I don't want to walk alone
Sometimes saying I'm busy, sometimes telling I feel sick
No much time to keep on lying, break me free
Time Calls me, And the moonlight shows me the way
Don't you realise, you're getting older this is true
My lifetime is getting shorter but I'm still feeling like
I'm young
And I know it can be easy, when tomorrow is coming
through
Past times won't come back to me, same as you
Time calls me, and the moonlight shows me the way
It's still not easy to ignore,
When all the issues fall apart
Until forever, until forever
Under the million stars hotel
It's me against myself again
Until forever, it's now or never!
Time calls me, and the moonlight shows me the way
Everything burns, and I know that I want to disappear
To break up with all my knots, and to forget about my
fear
Step by step I'm getting closer to the best of
medicines
Now it's my turn to feel the wind on my face, and
overcome all my disease
Let's ride again and I go rolling rolling rolling my
imagination
Let's spin again, now I can't stop, stop stop.
I try! Going faster, rollercoaster
You should come.
Make me belong!
I try! Going faster, rollercoaster
You should come.
Make me feel strong!
Endurance is getting lower, my capacity is overflowed
Now it's my turn to feel the wind on my face, and
overcome all my disgrace.
Let's ride again and I go rolling rolling rolling my
imagination
Let's spin again, now I can't stop, stop stop.
Later I'll be gone, I'll be gone, if you want to come
let's go! [x3]
Later I'll be gone, I'll be gone, rollercoaster bring
me down!
Now staring at the sky
Keeping breathe, riding so high
It won't be there forever
Let's scream like kids again
The ending is getting near
The Fall!
Later I'll be gone, I'll be gone, if you want to come
let's go!
Later I'll be gone, I'll be gone, rollercoaster bring
Starts a new day and I wake up
With that old hope that always had
To change the world were living now
Just before it breaks all down
People laughs and look at me
What drug you've taken are you ok?
I'm thinking about [x3]
Just what to do [x2]
We try to help, but there's nothing to do
All because of people like you
You're the scum of the earth
You should be all dead
What can I do?
What can I say?
They won't listen anyway [x2]
All my friends I left behind
Didn't know what's all about
Said I was behaving strange
I suppose I need to change
People laughs and look at me
What drug you've taken are you ok?
I'm thinking about [x3]
Just what to do [x2]
We try to help, but there's nothing to do
All because of people like you
You're the scum of the earth
You should be all dead
What can I do?
What can I say?
Every man, is keeping secrets
I still don't remember mine
But I know my heart's still beating
A broken love story goes by
I looked at her eyes and I saw this arctic ocean
Am I worn out? can give it up? (no way, no way)
It's all about forgetting you, I'm getting closer
And I don't mind to leave you (no way, no way)
I've never worried about anything
Always thought my life was solved
Now I try to get it over
I can't give up it's my own life
That's not the way, of getting answers
Go and break with your prejudice
You must know, there's no beginning
Without a cruel finish, TODAY
I looked at her eyes and I saw the whole arctic ocean
Am I worn out? can give it up? (no way, no way)
It's all about forgetting you, I'm getting closer
And I don't mind to leave you (no way, no way)
I've never worried about anything
Always thought my life was solved
Now I try to get it over
I can't give up it's my own lie
I've never worried about anything
Always thought my life was solved
Now I try to get it over
Wake me up when I'm screaming in my sleep.
I think I'm having a nightmare.
Hold me closer than one could ever need.
I'm just not safe anywhere.
My eyes roll, I'm in and out of reality.
I can't tell the difference in good and bad dreams.
Pray for me, I know it won't do anything, but that's ok.
I'm awake. I think I'd rather be asleep.
Who knows what's worse?
Torture me in my sleep.
Inside my head it burns at night.
Where all my darkest secrets lie.
This fear has taken me.
Crawling out from underneath.
It haunts me in my sleep.
Just leave me alone. I'm an empty soul.
My screams may echo me,
But not to be heard within my dreams.
Tell me now the reason why
You feel popular while you lie
I don't know what do you think of
Being like you, still such a bitch
Can't you just jump off a bridge?
I don't know what do you think of
Don't give me lectures, of how I've got to live
You're not the person who I want to be!
Don't say (show) you're sorry, I won't understand
It's not that easy to be friends
All and all and all I want
Is not to see her more
Tell me now the reason why
You get trapped by the first guy
I don't know what do you think of
Being all the highschool's whore
Wow, for you it's not a bore!
I don't know what do you think of
All and all and all I want
Is not to see her more
Hey people, it's shocking
The highschool's queen's above me
She thinks that she's shocking
But seems a crap chick to me
Hey people, it's shocking
The highschool's queen's above me
She thinks that she's shocking, FUCK!
Something happened today
A part of me went away
And all the things I matter most
Now I don't care anyway
I just need some motivation, whoa
Or I'll get lost in desperation all alone
Where have you been yesterday
My friend your turning me insane
With you I can do everything
Without you I'm stucked here again
When you feel lost, who you trust
It's worst than drowning desperation
When you're alone with no goal
I just need some motivation
Or I'll get lost in desperation all alone
Forget your worries runaway
Smile and face a new day
New day new hopes to start again
When motivation comes again
You can do the unexplained
This lazy waiting it's not fair
I just need some motivation
Or I'll get lost in desperation all alone
Forget your worries runaway
Smile and face a new day
New day new hopes to start again
When motivation comes again
You can do the unexplained
I'm sitting here in the boring room
It's just another rainy Sunday afternoon
I'm wasting my time
I got nothing to do
I'm hanging around
I'm waiting for you
But nothing ever happens and I wonder
I'm driving around in my car
I'm driving too fast
I'm driving too far
I'd like to change my point of view
I feel so lonely
I'm waiting for you
But nothing ever happens and I wonder
I wonder how
I wonder why
Yesterday you told me 'bout the blue blue sky
And all that I can see is just a yellow lemon-tree
I'm turning my head up and down
I'm turning turning turning turning turning around
And all that I can see is just another lemon-tree
I'm sitting here
I miss the power
I'd like to go out taking a shower
But there's a heavy cloud inside my head
I feel so tired
Put myself into bed
But nothing ever happens and I wonder
Isolation is not good for me
Isolation I don't want to sit on the lemon-tree
I'm stepping around in the desert of joy
Baby anyhow I'll get another toy
And everything will happen and you wonder
I wonder how
I wonder why
Yesterday you told me 'bout the blue blue sky
And all that I can see is just another lemon-tree
I'm turning my head up and down
I'm turning turning turning turning turning around
And all that I can see
And all that I can see
And all that I can see
Nothing compares to the weight I carry.
I just can't go home.
You'd think I'd hate you.
I know you're sorry.
I'll leave this alone.
Breathing in deep.
I can't sit still.
Strangled.
Shaking.
I've lost the will.
I hear the door slam.
Mom is crying.
"Just leave him alone."
Much less than a man.
Just beating me in.
This is no way to live.
Breathing in deep.
I can't sit still.
Strangled.
Shaking.
Blow, take it slow.
I've been thinking about ghosts.
Play. Take-away.
It takes from me every day.
In my head and in my chest.
In my dreams I'm blessed.
Bleed. Future me.
Hell seems way too close to me.
Still, I'll never heal.
My skin wasn't meant to feel.
Play. Take-away.
It takes from me every day.
Blow, take it slow.
I'll take comfort in knowing that I got the best days of
your life,
and you got the worst of mine, but I see no point in
showing the way that you are, and why.
My intentions have become the subject of violence.
Oh, I can't believe myself. I stuck around just long
enough to care.
Oh, I fucking hate myself. I hate you too, and I hope
you're well aware.
I hope to hell that you still hurt.
It's things like this I can't ignore.
I want the life I had before.
These days are wasted on an endless fucking war.
Oh, I can't believe myself. I stuck around just long
enough to care.
Oh, I fucking hate myself. I hate you too, and I hope
I remember the last four years now.
This has changed.
The sound of ambulances in my head, they don't make
sense.
I'm so scared.
Stuck, this won't leave.
I gotta get out of here.
It's safe to say that I'm a waste of space.
I'm just wishing it would go away.
I've got nothing to lose.
I've got nothing to gain.
I'm just stuck in the pain of the everyday.
The sound of ambulances in my head, they don't make
sense.
I'm so scared.
I can't wake up to this again.
I can't fall asleep.
These things I hear, they can't be real.
These shadows I see.
Afraid to be myself.
Alone I can't be loved.
I stare through your soul
To find something meaningful.
Something that can't grow old.
I know where you are and why you're there.
It's making it hard to disappear .
I see you in the walls where I sleep.
Your tight grip, it suffocates me.
Picked last. I'm a reject.
At least I was loved when I was a kid.
I'm feeling the distance.
It's so hard to talk when you turn away.
In your home I don't feel safe.
I know where you are and why you're there.
It's making it hard to disappear .
I see you in the walls where I sleep.
Your tight grip, it suffocates me.
No one's deserving to have this feeling.
So overwhelming, to feel this away.
Think I broke myself
I just fell a couple feet
Like a glass of ice
The crystals fight
I am here, am I losing ground?
I am one, you are all around
Everywhere
Sometimes I feel like
Love is not after all
The only thing I know is time keeps running
And colors start to glow
Because daylights coming
If I move from here, I wont go back the same
In this puzzle of a life's not really mine
I am here, am I lost or found?
I am one, you all around
Everywhere
Sometimes I feel like
Love is not after all
The only thing I know is time keeps running
And colors start to glow
Because daylights coming
The only thing I know is I'll keep running
And colors start to glow
Because daylights coming
The only thing i know is daylights coming
I stop to watch the sky begin to glow
Daylight
Your love is like daylight
Your love is like a sharp knife that cuts through all the
pain
I heard every rumor but I had to see for sure
How could I know? How could I know?
I stumbled down the boulevard of some back alley road
Where could I go? Where could I go?
Muddy my eyes and show me I was blind
Where do you go? Where do you go?
A hundred hidden spaces still you left me so exposed
Where could I go? Where could I go?
And I don't really understand
Why you bother with the second hand
It's a mystery to me and you only reveal it in time
I don’t want to fall asleep
Soon you’ll be far away from me
I’ll make the most of what is left
This will be a night we won’t forget
Daylight don’t get up this morning
Can’t you see I’m stalling
For a little time
Sunrise stay out of my window
Don’t become tomorrow
The night is still mine
Day light don’t shine
I won’t let you see me cry
I’ll hold your heart until you say goodbye
Do what you have to do
I hope that you come back this way real soon
Don’t Shine
Take the dawn out of your day
Don’t Shine
Keep it dark and she might stay
Don’t Shine
We’ve Been Strangers - LYRICS
All lyrics by David Johnson
Daylight
We've been strangers
We've hid away
We've shied from danger
So where could we stay
Here in this truth
All that remains
Movement must be
The strength that sustains
My fist unfolds
Your hurt I'll hold
Here we are
Standing in the rain
Setting sail with the winds of change
Burning bright with the break of day-
Light breaks the dark and we are
Not the same
We've longed to stay here
Half a heart away
Content with anger
These words just complain
Near to the truth
But never in the fray
Movement must be
The strength that sustains
My fist unfolds
Your hurt I'll hold
Rain's flooded my eyes
Love's flooded my eyes
The moon is falling
Tomorrow is coming
Every is calling now for fly
So want to tell you
Insects are burning over night
Laying here this fire
I wish I could flame it with my heart
When morning comes will you be gone?
What if the daylight comes to fast?
What if we take class and never give back
I can feel the morning fails
I can leave myself away
What if the daylight comes to fast?
It’s how I should make straight
The way that you move me
The way you make me feel
If are my darkness
If we can just slow down
Time stays still
And now when the day is breaking
My whisper can stay as a paragraph
When morning comes will you be gone?
What if the daylight comes to fast?
What if we take class and never give back
I can feel the morning fails
I can leave myself away
What if the daylight comes to fast?
I should try to say so much
I’ve been just kid describe my life
What if the daylight comes to fast?
What if we take class and never give back
I can feel the morning fails
I can leave myself away
What if the daylight comes to fast?
Expensive restaurants and cheap hotels
you can forget till it makes no sense
black black nights and promise rings
you can never get your mind back
back to the way it was
when you were daylight for me
when the sky was so black
you couldnt see
such a tiny star caught
in the great big sea
you were daylight for me
did you toll alarm clocks
that crawl inside my ears
its a cold day in the city
same shit is hitting
a big fan in the sky
and the war is only beginning
and youre still afraid of the dark
but you were daylight for me
when the sky was so black you couldnt see
such a tiny star caught in the great big sea
you were daylight.. daylight..daylight..
mmm yeahhhhhhh
ahhhhhhhhhhh
you were daylight for me
when the sky was so black
you couldnt see
such a tiny star caught
in the great big sea
[V1]
Daylight remembers the night before
It comes back again to say hello
The morning and I turn to look at you
I don't want to know the reasons why
[V2]
Yesterday it seems so far away
The things that we said in the night
Tomorrow and I'll be back again
I don't want to try to explain
[Ch]
You said that it was all for me
And didn't even try to ask
Another chance to die away
And leave the thoughts behind
[V3]
The echoes of your footsteps on the street
We can't keep hiding it away
The moments we spend together
I don't want to dance again tonight
{repeat Ch, repeat V1}
It's getting late so make another
And you know the lights could make me so high
I leave, I got a bitter spot in all of you
I heard it form the grape vine of your pockets
And did you know
I wait for people at the parlour
And you knew the love we made in my apartment
Oh no, wait while I sit and stand and wonder
I get the feeling that I didn't know.
As long as my eyelids can see the sight of daylight
You'll find another soon recover from your day time blues
You'll drink the fountain in the morning if it tastes right
And sing the songs of freedom like my father said to do
Ring around the road, and I'll show you where to go
Ring around the bright lights
We'll drop the bombs and sing the songs over and over
The block is hot so hit the corner
And you know my blood it bleeds the same pride
I bleed until the dimes turn into quarters
Cause you know we gotta eat and survive
And did you know
I wait for people at the parlour
And you knew the love we made in my apartment
Oh no, wait while sit and stand and wonder
I get the feeling that I didn't know.
As long as my eyelids can see the sight of daylight
You'll find another soon recover from your day time blues
You'll drink the fountain in the morning if it tastes right
And sing the songs of freedom like my father said to do
Ring around the road, and I'll show you where to go
Ring around the bright lights
We'll drop the bombs and sing the songs over and over
The daylight burns like fire
Unveils the face of truth
No I don't want to see
Why can't it be? Can it be?
This heart beats a different rhythm
But it fades in the roaring noise
Of reality imprisoning me
Set me free!
And forever's my time of waiting
For what won't come
Crying for worlds that can not be
And though are calling me so strong
My body imprisons me
My body is a cage that I can not break free
The life that's pushed through my veins
Hurts so the pain is not to bear
I feel this lonely body dying
With every step it takes
And if it takes forever
I will wait every night
For dragon wings to take my soul
Far way home
And forever's my time of waiting
For what won't come
Crying for worlds that can not be
And though are calling me so strong
My body imprisons me
daylight, did you ever get through?
you were my first child
I'm so proud of you too
come here for a while
get out of the zoo
there's so many of us wild
but you wanted it too
I always knew
its a lovers course
a new sensation
it set you up
and it sweeps the nation
I want my first try
I just wanted some truth
so many of us lie
and it had to be you
stay here for a while
I'm so outta my shoes
so many of us wild
but you wanted it too.
Did you hear the news today?
I'm not coming home, no
And I wished it all away
I felt so alone, yeah
And the darkness crept its way
Like stars that we all know will die too soon
There is never any sunrise here
In the shadows of eclipsing moons
Crawling on a tightrope
The bravest thing I have is hope
Daylight, save me
Daylight, save me
Tonight, oh, tonight
Halogen, the lights will flicker
Incandescent burning lies
And the silence stands for nothing
Desperate I search the skies
Aching for a spark
Trembling in pitchest dark
Daylight, save me
Daylight, save me
Tonight, oh, tonight
"U.S.S. Gloria, this is Mission Control, do you copy?"
Repeat, "U.S.S. Gloria, this is Mission Control, do you copy?"
"We have lost contact with the U.S.S. Gloria"
Repeat, "We have lost contact with the U.S.S. Gloria"
"Mission Control, this is the U.S.S. Gloria
Do you read me? Do you read me?
Mayday, mayday, we have lost primary guidance functions
Mayday"
The crew is now out of radio contact
Presently there is no way for us to know
Whether they are alive or dead
Our hopes and prayers go out with you all
"U.S.S. Gloria, this is Mission Control, do you copy?"
"Houston, this is the U.S.S. Gloria, good to hear your voice
We are coming out of the eclipse now
I see the sunlight, it's beautiful
The sunlight is beautiful"
Jesus Christ, light of the world
You never did forget me
And when I bled in darkness
You held me, still held me
When desperate nights I cursed You
You loved me, still loved me
Jesus Christ, You dry the tears
You break my heart of stone
Your words are life cut marrow through
The darkness to the bone
A heart of flesh You gave me
Only You can save me
Savior
Daylight
I am coming home
Well, looks like I'm going again
I can't seem to believe myself
Here I go again,
Here I go again
Here I go again
Listen to me now
It's five o'clock AM and the party
Is still going strong, there's a
Conversation going in the corner
Big Ed is all on the lawn
And the FM music is groovin'
Folks getting down, getting down
In their stocking feet
Sleepy eyes are peeping
From the window across the street
And it looks like daylight's
Gonna catch me up again
Most people like getting up
When I'm just getting in
Oh, its the only, only time
It seems to be the only time
When I can unwind
Swore to myself
Time and time, and time again
That I would give up the nightlife
And start layin' in
But it ain't easy no, no
Sayin' no to my friends
‘Cause the real
‘Cause the real set don't get started
‘Till everyone else is in
And it looks like daylight's
Gonna catch me up again
Most people like getting up
When I'm just getting in
Oh, its the only, only time
It seems to be the only time
The daylight burns like fire
Unveils the face of truth
No - I don't want to see
Why can't it be? - Can it be?
This heart beats a different rhythm
But it fades in the roaring noise
Of reality imprisoning me
Set me free!
And forever's my time of waiting
For what won't come
Crying for worlds that cannot be
And though are calling me so strong
My body imprisons me
My body is a cage that I cannot break free
The life that's pushed through my veins
Hurts so the pain is not to bear
I feel this lonely body dying
With every step it takes
And if it takes forever
I will wait every night
For dragon wings to take my soul
Far away - home
And forever's my time of waiting
For what won't come
Crying for worlds that cannot be
And though are calling me so strong
My body imprisons me
My body is a cage that I cannot break free
Crying for worlds that cannot be
And though are calling me so strong
My body imprisons me
In this room we can do
whatever you want to
No one's gonna come knocking at the door
We escaped from you all
through a hole in the wall
(yeah yeah)
No one's going to look around for us
(oh oh oh oh oh oh oh)
We're scared of daylight
It is much too bright
(yeah yeah)
We're flying hight
on a little fairy cloud
(oh oh oh oh oh oh oh)
Don't you think it's gonna be fine?
(you never know, you never know, you never know, oh darling)
Don't you think we shouldn't worry about it?
(I love you so)
Don't you think it's gonna be fine?
(you never know, you never know, you never know, oh darling)
Don't you think we shouldn't worry about it?
(I love you)
We've waiting too long
(we've waiting too long)
Writting too many songs
(yeah yeah)
We're begging for more
Yeah, we want more!
(oh oh oh oh oh oh oh)
We're out of control
This is where we are now
(yeah yeah)
This is where we are
now that we're breaking out
(oh oh oh oh oh oh oh)
Don't you think it's gonna be fine?
(you never know, you never know, you never know, oh darling)
Don't you think we shouldn't worry about it?
(I love you so)
Don't you think it's gonna be fine?
(I love you so)
Don't you think we shouldn't worry about it?
(oh oh oh oh oh oh oh)
(oh oh oh oh oh oh oh)
(oh oh oh oh oh oh oh)
Tomorrow I'll cover page one
First the ruins then the museums
Nothing life-changing's happened
But I'm hoping tomorrow it will.
This won't help me
This won't help me
The sunshine is angry as hell
So I don't like venturing out
My window looks onto a store
Selling tickets to get out of here
This won't help me
Fly me back now
This won't help me
I think I've messed up
I think I've messed up
This won''t help me
The strange thing about this store
Is the locals are queuing for flights
I think I'll go down there aswell
Since I came here to see how they live
This won't help me
Fly me back now
This won't help me
Fly me back now
This won't help me
Fly me back now
I think I've messed up
I think I've messed up...
i saw your eyes glancing back in the mirror
bright lights streaming faster
at night in the motel i dream of the car
crashing through the wild pastures
is there much further now?
are you loosing the meaning?
insects and moths spiral lost in the headlights
they're fragile disasters
is this the year when we loose our direction?
is time flying past us?
is there much further now?
are you loosing the meaning?
counting the miles between every sign
there must be something out here to find
follow me on and drive through the night
follow me back into the daylight
cumulus clouds always towering higher
i'm harbouring feelings
every place hides a life we could make
if we started believing
is there much further now?
are you losing the meaning?
counting the miles between every sign
there must be something out here to find
follow me on and drive through the night
Don't leave just yetI want to be hard for you to forget
I still smell your scent
There isn't enough white to wash it
I thought it was different
I thought it would be the same
The only thing that's left are the fake remains
(Repeat 2x)
Don't leave just yet
I want to be hard for you to forget
I still smell your scent
There isn't enough white to wash it
I thought it was different
I thought it would be the same
The only thing that's left are the fake remains
(Repeat 4x)
Days have passed and left behind
The day and light have become mine
Think of me like i think of you
And everything i see
I see through you
(Repeat 2x)
SEE THROUGH YOU
SEE THROUGH YOU
See(SEE)
Through(THROUGH)
You(YOU)
(YEAH!)
