Vidura (Sanskrit: विदुर, Vidūra) was an important figure in the Mahabharata, a major Hindu epic. He was half-brother to the kings Dhritarashtra and Pandu of Hastinapura, born the son of the sage Vyasa and a lady-in-waiting to the queens Ambika and Ambalika of the city. By some accounts, he was an incarnation of the god of death and justice Yama Dharma Raja, who had been cursed by the sage Mandavya for punishing the latter more harshly than his transgression warranted.
Both Ambika and Ambalika were wives of King Vichitravirya of Hastinapura, who, however, died childless. Anxious to ensure the survival of the royal lineage, Vichitravirya's mother Satyavati called another of her sons, the ascetic Vyasa, to bestow motherhood upon the two queens by mating. Vyasa, as a hermit practising severe austerities, was unpleasant and even fearsome in appearance, so much so that Ambika shut her eyes tight when she saw him, and her sister Ambalika went pale with fear. As a result, the sons they bore were respectively the blind Dhritarashtra and the sickly albino Pandu, neither of whom thus met the ideals of kingliness.
Sittin back i only wish,
Today will turn out fine,
And wash away the stain,
The poison in my eyes,
What do you recommend,
I feel my life descending,
I'm fallin outta reach,
Catch me as i bleed (again)
Im not insane,
Can't reach the pain.
If i could be all by myself,
i could be me,
I you could see, live with my pain,
The thoughts that i keep.
I hate the way they are,
Thier patronising thoughts,
Tried to get inside my head,
Ask the questions i have read,
But one thing makes it hard,
Feel so fragile as i cry,
So confused yet so alive,
So abused the system lied,
You lied to me.
Im not insane,
Can't reach the pain.
Alone,
Alone.
Hands appeared around my neck,
Felt so hard to breath i stared,
As my focus turned to haze,
I could see them.
Im not insane,
Can't reach the pain.
If i could be all by myself,
I could be free,
If you could see, live with my pain,
The thoughts that i keep,
Alone, Alone, Alone.
Descend,
Seein' life begin
Hear the oceans sing
It takes you back
Pulls you back
Brings you home
See your face in stone
A hollow moon above an aching sky
Silent night
Brings you home
Left without a place
Lonely inner space
That you can breathe
It's the essence of a love
My love
Lead by devotion
Celebrate
Celebration
Dove grey sands
Lead by devotion
Celebrate
Celebrate now
Dove grey sands
Narrow days alone
Pushing for the sun
Don't hide away
Burn to grey
One soul
Facing life alone
Numbers on a phone
To help you back
Send it back
Bring you home
Left without a place
Lonely inner space
That you can breathe
It's the essence of a love
My love
Lead by devotion
Celebrate
Celebration
Dove grey sands
Lead by devotion
Celebrate
Celebrate now
Dove grey sands
Feelin' like it's over
It's just the start
I can't hear you again
Dreaming of the ocean
As waves come in
I can't hear it again
Keep my feet on the sand
Gotta take the hand that guides me there
As I reach, do they stare?
Do they feel the same way?
I wanna be here!
I wanna be here, I see the face
Look back and then it calls to me
Wanna stay here, here
Just wanna be free
(Wanna be free)
Could it be in my head?
As I kneel, as I turn to face, cover me
If it falls high above
It takes us all away someday
I wanna be here!
I wanna be here, I see the face
Look back and then it calls to me
Just Wanna stay here, here
Just wanna be free
Will I fell it anymore?
As a child, as I grow old
It's the only way I see
Open up, let it be
I wanna be here!
You don't know, cause you don't see it
I wanna be here, I see the face
Look back and then it calls to me
I feel it, so let it go
Let it go
Wanna be here
Office blocks, corner shops, traffic jams on every street, The same old rush around
Obsolete, I'm a freak, In a show on Brighton beach, As the snow comes down
Reality's kicking me, Knocking me right off my feet, As the sky spins round
We're waiting for changes
Rejected and dented
We're waiting for changes
The lights green but today's red
Laundry stops, by the lock, On a Sunday afternoon, With all that fuss
Cantelowes skateboard shows, tennants Extra by a row of recycle bins
We're waiting for changes
Rejected and dented
We're waiting for changes
The lights green but today's red
We're waiting for changes
Different perspectives
We're waiting for changes
The lights green but today's red
Take a ride to Charing Cross, Join the masses as they shop, Their lives away
29's the northern line, Heading back to lose our minds, To break the chain
We're waiting for changes
Rejected and dented
We're waiting for changes
The lights green but today's red
We're waiting for changes
Different perspectives
We're waiting for changes
The lights green but today's dead
I'm waiting for changes
I'm waiting for changes
I'm waiting for changes
Left out in the sun to dry again, Washed up on a shore line south of Spain
Gazing up with telescopic eyes, Planetary life above the skies
Oh my God, she's my obsession, my obsession (my obsession)
Here she comes, she's a picture of perfect youth
Here she comes, lifting me up to the moon
Drifting on a boat in emerald seas, Pulling on the strings inside of me
Tasting salt as waves dive over me, Twisting on a rope of memories
Oh my God, she's my obsession, my obsession
Here she comes, she's a picture of perfect youth
Here she comes, lifting me up to the moon
Here she comes, she's a picture of perfect youth
Here she comes
If you could only see, That I'm sinking like a stone
The sea is getting colder, Every second as I go
It's like breathing underwater, But I just can't let you go
My obsession, she's my obsession, my obsession
Oh my God, she's my obsession, my obsession (my obsession)
Here she comes, she's a picture of perfect youth
Here she comes, lifting me up to the moonOh my God, she's my obsession, my obsession (my obsession)
Here she comes, she's a picture of perfect youth
Here she comes, lifting me up to the moon
Looking through the windowshade,
Stare at streets that bare no name,
Now it all looks strange to me,
Yesterday seems like a dream,
But i often try too hard,
To break the routine of my day,
Turn around see what i see,
Can't help wishing it could.
Change, Change, again,
Unchain myself, i will.
See the faces in the crowd,
Busy streets they move around,
Underground seems such a drag,
Waiting still and then we change,
The more i see, the more it hurts,
The more we change it all seems worse.
Tomorrow till tomorrow comes.
As it drags me there i feel,
A sence of urgency unviel,
Whats in store for us today,
Read the papers drift away.
Change, we change again,
We change, again,
Unchain myself,
I will.
Oh how i hate to feel this way,
The more i wait to see it change,
The more i see the more it hurts,
The more we change it all seems worse.
Evaporate, exasperate
Watch the world with swivel hand
We're hanging on a wire
Cigaretes, nicorettes
Life's addications father stress
But who can make it better
Oh-ho-ho!
Watch me rise
Oh-ho-ho!
Synchronized
Take me high
Space age hero
Pain
Take the strain
Go insane
Like a monkey in a cage
Melting in a fire
Dislocate, make the break
Wash the stain right off your feet
We're hanging on a wier, oh
Oh-ho-ho!
Watch me rise
Oh-ho-ho!
Synchronized
Take me high
Space age hero
Dissident
Take the stand
Live the system, walk the plank
We're hanging on a wire
Oh-ho-ho!
Watch me rise
Oh-ho-ho!
Synchronized
Take me high
Space age hero
Oh-ho-ho!
Watch me rise
Oh-ho-ho!
Synchronized
Take me high
Don't you think it's sad?
Happiness is dead, our rain has gone
Building up the walls
Just to see them fall away
Which way should I go?
Further up as I float
Trying to understand
Keep my feet on the ground
And live again
I'm coming down, I see myself
On the sand, I walk again
Through this land of rain
I think we know
My conscience grows
Within myself two different roads
So far from home, again
Which way should I go?
Further up as I float
Trying to understand
Keep my feet on the ground
And live again
I'm coming down, I see myself
On the sand, I walk again
Through this land of rain
Somewhere there's a place that I can be
Somewhere there is air that I can breathe in
Someday pretty soon they're gonna believe
Believe in me, believe in me
Here comes the ground, I see it now
I'm coming down, all by myself
On the sand, I walk again
Through this land of rain
Yeah, we're gonna make mistakes
Politicians shake and fakes
Backs against the wall
Feel the world about to blow
Yeah, I wanna stay in
Were gonna turn it all around
Find new trees on better ground
Taste the easy life
Can't you feel it's gonna blow?
Yeah, I wanna stay in
Growin' old with you
What a thing to do
Growin' old with you
Just what I'm gonna do?
Thinking back to '86
Summer days out in the sticks
Black Sabbath everyday
Small town life has had its way
Yeah, I wanna be free
Took the open road in haste
Time to jump out of the cage
Experience the world
Drawing circles round the sun
Yeah, I wanna be free
Growin' old with you
What a thing to do
Growin' old with you
Just what I'm gonna do?
Growin' old with you
Sitting in today, watching traffic buzzing by, and faces nosing in
A victim of regret, it glitters and it fades away, like silver turning grey
Washed it all away, waiting for this dream to end, before it sucks me in
I'm climbing high, up above the streets and rows of neon lights
I'm holding out my hand but I'm alone
Wish I could show you
Wish you could see through my eyes
Tomorrow shines through
But I'm missing yesterday
Crashing on the ground, the silence seems to suffocate, and bury me again
Waiting for a taste, of happiness to lift me free, and carry me away
I'm climbing high, up above the streets and rows of neon lights
I know it's just a dream but I'm alive
Wish I could show you
Wish you could see through my eyes
Tomorrow shines through
But I'm missing yesterday
I'm still missing yesterday
I'll wait, I'll wait for you tonight.
Lost another week, feeling like a leper in, a world of vanity
It's killing me today, addiction pulls you down, you know
And she's the drug I need
Wish I could show you
Wish you could see through my eyes
Tomorrow shines through
But I'm missing yesterday
Wish I could show you
Wish you could see through my eyes
Tomorrow shines through
Staring at Paper faces, Expressions like empty pages, Day after day
Waiting for the lights to change now,, Reaching for a cloud to come down,
And cover me
Can't shut you out
Can't get you out
Can't take you down
Can't watch you drown
Waiting for the world to change now, Dissolution takes a bite out, And swallows me
Looking for a way to get out, Wishing that the rush would come down
And smother me
Can't shut you out
Can't get you out
Can't take you down
Can't watch you drown
If you can learn to be yourself, Then that's okay
If you can find a reason now, Don't drift away
Walking down streets to nowhere, Stepping on feet with no cares,
Losing my self
Can't shut you out
Can't get you out
Can't take you down
Can't watch you drown
Can't shut you out
Can't get you out
Can't take you down
Can't watch you drown
Waking each day, No money no pay
Living in a box alone with his pain, Kissing the rain that's pouring again,
Blaming the system from where we came, Trapped inside a fish eye lens,
Trying to get out cause it won't change, Money doesn't mean that much to him.
But maybe another bottle of gin:
Here comes that radio man,
He smiles but no one sees him yeah, yeah
Here comes that Radioman
Tune in you might hear him,
Radioman
Living in the same old shoes, With every step the world comes through,
Like a river that flows on down, Dragging him under to the sand
He rises up to another day, The people laugh, but they don't stay
They try to hide their guilt away, With a smile that says that its okay.
Here comes the radio man,
He smiles but no one sees him yeah, yeah
Here comes the Radioman
Tune in you might hear him,
Radioman, the radioman
Somebody, somebody hear me
Lift off and take me away
Here comes the radioman he smiles but no one sees him,
Here comes that radioman
Tune in you might hear him,
Radioman, the radioman, radioman
I'm burning out the TV tubes,
It's three o'clock & I'm confused
Cause commitment is so complete,
It's burning little holes in me
I know that I might look a mess,
And she's so perfect in that Oxfam dress
She looks just like a beauty queen,
Shining out in velveteen
I'm delirious
You make it better
You make the weather seem OK
You're my anaesthetic
You just take the pain away
I love it when she comes around,
She's a firework that never ends
A micro chip inside my brain,
I'm crawling on my knees again
It scares me the way I am,
I'm buried in a sea of sand
Lying on a hand grenade,
Waiting for the world to shake
I'm delirious
You make it better
You make the weather seem OK
You're my anaesthetic
You just take the pain away
You make it better
You just take the pain away
Delirious, I'm so delirious, delirious,
I'm so delirious, Delirious
You make it better
You make the weather seem OK
You're my anaesthetic
You just take the pain awayYou make it better
You make the weather seem OK
You're my anaesthetic
You just take the pain away
Anaesthetic,
She's my anaesthetic
Anaesthetic,
I put my best foot first & it got burned,
Communication always hurts,
I got myself so deep inside a hole,
I taste the air so thin as i get old.
(I don't think so)
She's my hands, She's my hands.
Picks me up when i crash down,
Build me wings so i can glide,
She's my novacaine ride.
(NOVACAINE!)
Pick up the pieces of my world,
Glue them together, i wish i could,
I can't believe it as the picture fades,
Just like a TV but the sound remains
(I don't think so) no (i don't think so)
Feel it as i shake,
Shatter illusions fade,
Taste my bitter tears,
Cut my heart with shears.
I don't think so, i don't think so.
She's my hands, she's my hands,
Picks me up when i crash down.
A new day has begun
And taken us now
Morning life is here
Turn outside and sound
But you feel
Nothing is real
You're flesh and bone
But nothing is real
Today
This could be the only day
Can't let this moment get away
Cause this could be the only way
So call on me
Call on me
Tempers of the world
Dragging you down
The chemistry of life
The touch of a hand
But you feel
Nothing is real
You're flesh and bone
But nothing is real
Today
This could be the only day
Can't let this moment get away
Cause this could be the only day
So call on me
Call on me
You're fading out don't fade
You're coming back
You're fading out don't fade
You're coming back
You're fading out don't fade
You're coming back
Today
This could be the only way
So call on me
Call on me
Today
This could be the only day
Push holes in the plastic
Immaculate dolls in the hands of a child with a ratchet
Two fingers too out of control
The confusion shall leave us to vultures and preachers
I hate it...
Can't take it...
I can't believe it
Why can't you see it?
I can't believe it
Chew me up when needed
Turn over another day older
Another day nearer to jumping on over
Bloodsuckers and lovers that leave you
And tease you and cheat you, deceive you I see through
I hate it...
Don't want it...
I can't believe it
Why don't you see it?
I can't believe it
Chew me up when needed
I can't believe it
Why don't you see it?
I can't believe it
Chew me up when needed
I'll say what I wanna say
I'll say what I wanna say
I can't believe it
Why don't you see it?
I can't believe it
Chew me up when needed
I can't believe it
Why don't you see it?
I can't believe it
Chew me up when needed
I can't believe it
Why don't you see it?
I can't believe it
Chew me up when needed
I can't believe it
Why don't you see it?
I can't believe it
Wishing for a summer without rain
Seeing is believing for ourselves
Breathing as we're sinking to the sand
But I will wait for her arms
Then I can reach for the stars
I will wait for her love
Tomorrow shine
Wishing for a lover, not just a friend
Reaching for a hand to pull me in
But I will wait for her arms
Then I can reach for the stars
I will wait for her love
Tomorrow shine
Shine on, shine on
Waiting for a summer without rain
Reaching for the starlet in the sky, again
But I will wait for her arms
Then I can reach for the stars
I will wait for her love
Tomorrow shine
But I will wait for her arms
Then I can reach for the stars
I will wait for her love
Tomorrow shine, tomorrow shine
Tomorrow shine, tomorrow shine
Feeling so alone
Complexion white as stone
Looking for a getaway
Broken by the strain
And constant rearrangement
Anything is possible
Yeah
Anything is possible
Yeah
Loosing control of my soul but you don't know
Help me breathe
Set me free
Loosing control of my soul but you don't know
Help me breathe
Set me free
Loosing all effect
Cause feelings in descent
Conscious of deception
A bruise you keep inside
A smile that tries to hide
Anything is possible
Yeah
Loosing control of my soul but you don't know
Help me breathe
Set me free
Loosing control of my soul but you don't know
Help me breathe
Set me free
Yeah
Silence
Silence
Silence
It's hard for me to comprehend
Holding on with broken hands
But who will understand
Wallow in the acid rain
What's in store for us today
It's never gonna feel the same
I'm waiting for an angel now
To carry me above the clouds
Cause it's a long way home for the summer
And it's a long way up without a ladder
It's a long way home
And it's a long way down
Swallowing the bitter taste
Trying to find a remedy
Before the crystal breaks
Looking at a picture show
Frame by frame you see us grow
To something you don't know
You're trying to find a reason now
Behind a face, you see a child
It's a long way home for the summer
And it's a long way up without a ladder
And it's a long way home
And it's a long way down
Life's a picture show
had a bad hair day
had a bad hair day
had a bad hair day
had a bad hair day
had a bad hair day
had a bad hair day
had a bad hair day
had a bad hair day
had a bad hair day
had a bad hair day
had a bad hair day
Would it always be the same
Give it all to reason
Let me down
You watch me drown
Hold me down I can't explain
Though I never could - that's the problem
Fight about the plate again,
Climbing up to free myself.
I don't need this
Innovation comes
Do you really know
I'm falling
I just fall into shade
All I wanna do is pray
Give me back the freedom
If it comes the only way
Clearance sets me free
... twist and turn
Looking at the same thing
Flicking back the pages
Just enough for me to see myself
I don't need this
Innovation comes
Do you really know
I'm trying to believe
As life turns on
Do you see it
Do you really know
I'm falling
I will fall into space
As funny though it seems
That I can dream a little
It's pulling me inside
The wheels still turn
...as the sun
Touch my face
...back home
I don't need this
Innovation comes,
I'm trying to believe
As life drags on
Do you see it
Do you really know
Kill, kill or be killed for
Expected life to be so safe
Caught, caught in a mantrap
Another part of me has changed
Maybe I could swim
Can't help myself
It's funny but it seems
I lose myself
I'm lost inside a dream
I hate myself
The more that I believe
Can't find my way
Fill, filled with emotion
Sailing off the edge again
Drown, drown all devotion
Riding on a drift to hell
Maybe I could swim
Can't help myself
It's funny but it seems
I lose myself
I'm lost inside a dream
I hate myself
The more that I believe
Can't find my way
Follow the river
Wallow in silver
Voices draw nearer
I'm counting out the day's wage
Let it be known, lettin' it out
Let it be known, lettin' it out
See it so near, it seems so far
It's when you're here, It's where you are
See it so clear
Making my head spin
Watching the world sing
Holding me under
Try and get a hold son
Let it be known, lettin' it out
Let it be known, lettin' it out
See it so near, it seems so far
It's when you're here, it's where you are
See it so clear
Pale and wanton
Dreams forgotten
No use crying
I feel like chicken on a bone, chicken on a bone
See it so near, it seems so far
It's when you're here, it's where you are
See it so clear
Lettin' it out
Oh, let it be known, let it be known
Lettin' it out, Lettin' it out, Lettin' it out
Let it be known, let it be known
Lettin' it out, Lettin' it out, Lettin' it out
Hello, hello, hello..
Let it be known, let it be known
Lettin' it out, Lettin' it out, Lettin' it out
Let it be known, let it be known
The words we say, Old flowers fade away
Remember yesterday, Wish it would bloom again
Apathy and pain, Here comes the Autumn rain
Old apologies scattered in the wings of fate
Cause today it all looks black and white, Wish it would change
We can't keep painting colours when its
Don't hesitate, cause you will bleed
A thousand tears won't wash it clean
Don't hesitate cause you can free yourself
Evergreen, Evergreen
Down on my knees, Crawling though the streets again
Surrendered to my needs, So I can breathe the air
You're my evergreen, Regents Park in spring
It takes me to a place, Where I can dream again
Cause today it all looks black and white, Wish it would change
We can't keep painting colours when it rains
I just want some place where I can breathe without this bitter taste
Cause today it all looks black and white, Wish it would change
We can't keep painting colours when it's grey
It all looks black and white today
You're my evergreen, Regents Park in spring
It takes me to a place, Where I can dream again
Cause today it all looks black and white, Wish it would change
We can't keep painting colours when it rains
He's got a brand new car
Looks like a Jaguar
It's got leather seats
It's got a CD player (player, player, player...)
But I don't wanna talk about it anymore
I think we're gonna make it
I think we're gonna save it yeah
So don't you try and fake it
Anymore, anymore
We'll start over again
Grow ourselves new skin
Get a house in Devon
Drink cider from a lemon (lemon, lemon, lemon...)
But I don't wanna talk about it anymore
I think we're gonna make it
I think we're gonna save it yeah
So don't you try and fake it
Anymore, anymore
I think we're gonna make it

So don't you try and fake it
Reading magazines and counting sheep to pass the time away
Hoping that tomorrow's gonna bring a smile BACK home again
Images of palm tree's swaying in the wind on South beach
Takes me back to better days, Summer days the everglades in June
My brain, my poor brain
My brain, my poor brain
I'm drinking myself to sleep again, Nightnurse pills to keep me sane
Drinking myself to sleep again, Insomnia
Flying high in golden skies, I'm flicking channels in my mind
Finding my utopia a different chapter in a book
Thinking back to younger days as I escape in Cooper's Break
It takes me back to 84 the future's knocking at my door
My brain, my poor brain
My brain, my poor brain
I'm drinking myself to sleep again, Nightnurse pills to keep me sane
Drinking myself to sleep again, Insomnia I'm drinking myself to sleep again, Nightnurse pills to keep me sane
Drinking myself to sleep again, Insomnia
Turning off a switch inside me, Leaving all the stress behind me
Flying over streams and houses, Passing over the Wye valley
It takes me back to 84 the future's knocking at my door
My brain, my poor brain
I'm drinking myself to sleep again, Nightnurse pills to keep me sane
Drinking myself to sleep again, Insomnia I'm drinking myself to sleep again, Nightnurse pills to keep me sane
Drinking myself to sleep again, Insomnia I'm drinking myself to sleep again, Nightnurse pills to keep me sane
Show it to me one way,
I've gotta see it all,
Scientific Radar,
Reaching through the storm,
Theres got to be hope,
As people move on,
We've got to keep on believing.
It's time to give it everything,
A world unite let us in,
Hear me cry,
Suffocate,
let them die,
A better life say goodbye,
Hear me cry.
I see everything silver & gold,
Way up im reaching out,
Clouds white as snow,
There's gotta be hope,
As people move on,
We've gotta keep believing.
Hear me cry,
Why dont they hear me,
Suffocate,
Let them die,
A better life to say goodbye,
Give,
Pull back my skin,
Look Deep within,
Transparent grins,
The more you Kill Me.
Just see how it is,
Just see how it really is.
Theres radiation in my hands,
Can't you see im going mad,
See the colourof my skin,
Turning blue as i breathe in,
Theres radiation in my head.
Suffer for life,
My soul divides,
I'm reaching High,
But no-one see's me.
Just see how it is,
Just see how it really is.
Get it out, Get it out, Get it out.
Trapped in my shell,
My fingers melt,
All by myself,
I'm all by myself.
Just seehow it is,
Just see how it really is.
Radiation....Radiation.
You hear me breath a little more,
And see me walk into a storm,
The more you give yourself away,
I wish that i could touch the sky
Elevate Me
I hope that i dont burn my eyes
As i Drift free
Don't think that i can help myself
Guess it's true
Polythene, Polythene Girl
Wrap me up in a cellophane world
Polythene, Polythene Girl, #I'm breaking the seal, never thought i would
I wish that i could heal myself
Addicted to you
Wrap me up in cotton wool
Just to feel new
Don't think that i can help myself
But it's true
Polythene (Polythene Girl)
Suffocate, elevate
Suffocate, elevate
But it's true
Polythene Girl,
Cellophane World
Polythene Girl,
Shoot holes in me,
Then you watch as i bleed,
Sticks, Sticks and stones,
Break my bones as i speak,
Leave me to burn,
As i melt in my pain,
Watch as i drown in my tears,
We have made.
Cause we've got to forgive,
Things are changing at last,
I hope for the best,
But i don't understand i'm just a man,
I'm still trying to see.
Love, Love is hate,
Can't seperate,
how it is,
Deep in grave,
Can't pretend,
'When it's real.'
See a way,
Move away,
See a way,
Will i ever be saved for this,
Will i ever be clean.
I wish for the best,
I wish for the best,
Cause we've got to forgive,
Finishing avenue
Pulling you under now
Your fighting the undertow
Before it sucks you down
Pushing the senses
It's pushing the senses now
Come on come on
What are you going to do
You can't find another day
Come on come on
You're pushing the senses
You're pushing the senses through
Always, I can depend on you
But sometimes
It's burning a hole right through
Let's talk about it
Staring at photographs
Post it on the wall
Images smiling down
The face of a lonely soul
Come on come on
What are you going to do
You can't find another day
Come on come on
You're pushing the senses
You're pushing the senses through
Always
'cause I can depend on you
But sometimes
I'm finding it hard to choose
Let's talk about it
Always
I can depend on you
But sometimes
It's burning a hole right through
Let's talk about it
Let's talk about it
Always
I can depend on you
But sometimes
Sometimes
Always
I can depend on you
But sometimes
It's burning a hole right through
Let's talk about it
Always
I can depend on you
But sometimes
It's burning a hole right through
Keep pushing the senses through
We're laughing in the face of fear again
We close our eyes and watch it disappear
Stepping on the stones as we sink in
We jump into the fires of hopelessness, forever
Cause it's falling again, catch me
We've swallowed the pills and the pain
It's falling again, but no one sees
It's a 21st century meltdown
Submitted to the fears of loneliness
Degenerate and jumping off the edge
We build our homes, but live inside our heads
Hoping that the dreams will keep us sane, forever
Cause it's falling again, catch me
We've swallowed the pills and the pain
It's falling again, but no one sees
It's a 21st century meltdown
Come on in
I hear your voice
Change the frequency
And make that choice
Constitution
Find new ground
You don't know
I think about you every day
You're lying awake on top of silver clouds
Sending Love back down
It's real love
Can't you feel it
Can't you breathe it in
Come on in
I hear you sing
All together
Different skin
Superstition
Prophecy
You don't know
I think about you every day
You're lying awake on top of silver clouds
You're sending love back down
It's real love
Can't you feel it
Can't you breathe it in
All this for nothing, yeah yeah yeah
Praying and hoping, fooling yourself
You know that you can give love a reason
Give love a chance
We tumble and fall, together we crawl
Forever we'll be, tumble and fall
Heaven's above us, yeah yeah yeah
Living in solace, I give you it all
Just for a day, just for a second,
Just for the way
We tumble and fall, together we crawl
Forever we'll be, tumble and fall
Life's not the same, since that day you went away
I recall like the drops of summer rain that fell on me
Come back to me, come back to me, yeah yeah yeah
We tumble and fall, together we crawl
Forever we'll be, tumble and fall
Together we crawl, forever we'll be, tumble and fall
We can't keep pissing in the wind
Bleaching holes in perfect skin to make us new
Hold a match until it burns
Got ourselves against the wall, nowhere to go
Tried to be my best to you
As I recall I never lied to you it's true
Wrapped around you like an eel
You reel me in don't throw me back into the pool
Cause we're floating by
While the old world slides
You just make it shine
Leave it all behind
Lifiting off just for a while
Driving off the edge, sailing to the moon
Leave behind your self denial
Taste a piece of life and suck it in for good
Cause we're floating by
While the old world slides
You just make it shine
Leave it all behind
See tomorrow shine
Take a walk into a sea
Diving under waves of green
Climbing back into a dream
Cause we can fly there
Cause we're floating by
While the old world slides
You just make it shine
Leave it all behind
Cause we're floating by
While the old world slides
You just make it shine
They cover me in the clothes you see
And I'm suffocating I try to breathe
Only here to let them know
Fading out as the hours go
Cover me if I walk away
Tripping out, I'm in hyper space
Till the will it begins to break
Feel the wall as it starts to shake
Too late, I know
I'm getting deeper, oh yeah
Falling away
Goodbye all, I'm in heaven
Hear me now, desperation
Reaching out, arms wide open
Hear me now I say
Move away if you still don't see
Hanging on, it could never be
Give it up when you start to bleed
Take it down, it feels good to me
You gotta be what you try to be
Only see what you wanna see
Just to see what you've done to me
Had a lover, I think I'm free
Too late, I know
I'm getting deeper, oh yeah
Falling away
Goodbye all, I'm in heaven
Hear me now, desperation
Reaching out, arms wide open
Hear me now I say
Gone, gone, gone
Too late, I know
Too late, I know
Goodbye all, I feel free
Hear me now, don't cover me
Reaching out, as I leave
Tripping out, TV Me (TV Me)
Goodbye all, I feel free (I'm in heaven, TV Me)
Hear me now, don't cover me (Desperation, TV Me)
Reaching out, as I leave (Arms wide open, TV Me)
Tripping out, TV Me (I swear, TV Me)
Goodbye all, I'm in heaven (I'm so free, TV Me)
Hear me now, desperation (I'm so free, TV Me)
Reaching out, arms wide open (I'm so free, TV Me)
I think I'm coming round
Coming round to a way of thinking now
Trying to find the ground
Somewhere new to stop us slipping
Always, always straight back down
Kicking out the fool
There's no sense in us going under now
Holding on to you
Trying to swim but we're treading water
Always, always straight back down
I think that you're the one
The color never runs
A hand that heals me over, over today
You take away the grey
Bring the color as it fades
A hand that heals me over, over
Comfort in the sound
Lift the world from off your shoulders now
Lying on the ground
Staring up at a face that haunts you
Always, always straight back down
Reaching out a hand
Course there's no life without the purple
Always, always straight back down
I think that you're the one
The color never runs
A hand that heals me over, over today
You take away the grey
Bring the color as it fades
A hand that heals me over, over
Always, always straight back down
I think I'm coming rround
Coming round to a way of thinking
Always, always straight back down
I think that you're the one
The color never runs
A hand that heals me over, over today
You take away the grey
Bring the color as it fades
A hand that heals me over, over again
I think that you're the one
The color never runs
A hand that heals me over, over today
You take away the grey
Bring the color as it fades
Telepathic, social addicts
Interactive to the masses
Left to our defenses as we change the colours
Turn the grey skies back to blue again
Oxidize
Oxidize
Parasites the size of my eyes
Oxidize
We oxidize
Telescopic, pornographic
All invited, design the habits
Left to our defenses as we change the colours
Turn the grey skies back to blue again
Oxidize
Oxidize
Parasites the size of my eyes
Oxidize
We oxidize
Survive
Left to our defenses as we change the colours
Turn the grey skies back to blue again
Oxidize
Oxidize
Parasites the size of my eyes
Oxidize
We oxidize
Parasite the size of my eyes
Oxidize
We oxidize
December, why does it always rain
Why does it never snow
Tempers, pulling you round again
It only takes one word to bring you round
But nothing can last forever
It's getting better all the time now
I can feel it again
Falling, dropping like a stone
You wish you could fund your friends
Talking, hearing the same old news
It only takes one word to bring you round
Coz nothing can last forever
It's getting better all the time now
I can breath in again
Getting better everyday now
I can feel it again
Lift yourself into a better place
Time to heal a broken heart
It only takes one word to bring you round
But nothing can last forever
It's getting better all the time now
I can feel it again
Getting better everyday now
I can breath in again
Gotta learn how to think
Cause I'm drowning in sin
Just wanna taste that cinnamon skin
I've gotta learn how to cry
Taste the tear roll by
Cause there's no sense in self destruction
Emily loved him
Emily loved him
You cut away the disease
You pure the air that I breathe
You came and healed my disease again
Now the light comes shining in
I've gotta learn how to drink
Without the alcohol swings
I'm sure that things will feel better
Gotta learn how to grow
Lift the world off your toes
Feel yourself drift off to somewhere
Emily loved him
Emily loved him
You cut away the disease
You pure the air that I need
You came and healed my disease
What's gonna happen if it all falls in
And the highs get low and the pain sits inside me
Emily loved him
Cause Emily loved him
You cut away the disease
You pure the air that I breathe
You came and healed my disease again
Now the lights come shining in
You cut away the disease
You pure the air that I need
You came and healed my disease again
I can't dress so I can't dance to disco
I can't move and I hate the way my feet go
I can't dress but she thinks I'm on the clothes show
Why can't she see?
It's so sad, she always sees the good side
Life sucks when you're lying on the inside
She's so sweet she covers me with honey
Why can't she see?
Disco!
I can't dance to disco
Disco!
White suits and gigolos
I'm a whore, paranoid and schizo
Hit the floor, chewing on the lino
I'm a mess, throw me like a yo-yo
Why can't you see?
Disco!
I can't dance to disco
Disco!
White suits and gigolos
Disco!
I can't dance to disco
Disco!
White suits and gigolos
Oh I hate those disco kings
Silk shirts and signet rings
Oh I hate those greasy kings
Cuban heels and rubber skins
Disco!
I can't dance to disco
Disco!
White suits and gigolos
Disco!
I can't dance to disco
Disco!
White suits and gigolos
Disco!
I can't dance to disco!
Disco!
I can't live for disco!
Disco!
Gone for days
Cut the chase
Bite the bullet time
Ease the pain
Give me something new she said
Tell me something new instead
Fornicate
A love to break
I know we're all so self obsessed, so materialistic, over-sexed
I know we're all so self assured, burn a hole right through this perfect world
Blown away
Learn to taste
Find the essence now
Shake the frame
Give me something new she said
Tell me something new instead
Give me something new she said
Tell me something new instead
I know we're all so self obsessed, so materialistic, over-sexed
I know we're all so self assured, burn a hole right through this perfect world
Yeah, I wish I could be like you
Yeah, I wish I could be like you
We held their place, and stars come down, I must confess
She said...
I must contest we're too far gone, our hands won't mesh
She said...
You're the milk
Ease the guilt
There's no substitute
You're the milk
I know we're all so self obsessed, so materialistic, over-sexed
I know we're all so self assured, burn a hole right through this perfect world
Yeah, I wish I could be like you
Yeah, I wish I could be like you
Yeah, I wish I could be like you
Fading out
Holding out
The innocent way
Loves run out
Left this world inside of me
Crying out
Screaming out
As the echoes within
The cat is out
No more secrets left within
The feelings gone
You swallowed the sun
One by one
The bolder has come
The feelings gone
You swallowed the sun
And wave goodbye to love again
Staring down
Tears roll down
And now that you feed
A Broken cloud
A covers torn for all to see
The feelings gone
You swallowed the sun
One by one
The bolder has come
The feelings gone
You swallowed the sun
And wave goodbye to love again
Fading out
Staring at the ideal world,
The bubble begins to break,
Gazing at the ceiling cracks,
The more the picture fades,
It's just that i can't see,
When im down like this,
I just feel the wieght,
As i try to resist.
It doesn't matter when i dream away,
Life in a Stereo World,
Something happens, i Drift away (away)
Floating out of sync again,
Reaching for a cloud,
Levitating high, i'm free,
Turning myself around,
Just as i feel fine,
It begins to break,
Now the pain is here,
What a big mistake.
It just explodes as i drift in,
A thousand hands caress my skin,
Calling out again,
Sweat upon my head aches
Making me feel bad
Ill again
And as we're dreaming
Maybe im high
High, takes me in,
High and i hear you say
Forgiven, i wish i was forgiven
From all this pain
Reaching out to say...
Thinking of the days
Walking by the trees swaying
Staring at the sun
The little child is me
The pain has taken over
Smiles have turned to stone
High, takes me in,
High i hear you say
Forgiven, i wish i was forgiven
From all this pain
Reaching out to say...
You heal the scars i hide
You drank the tears i cried
Im reaching out to touch
The angel of my life
Forgiven
Forgiven
Forgiven
I wish i was
I show you the reason
That we are still alive
Maybe its inside my head
The dreams when you arrive
Forgiven
Forgiven
I wish i was
I wish i was
Forgiven
Forgiven
I wish i was
I wish i was
She's looking good in a new towel,
Looking clear in the new crowd,
She's so funny to be with,
So easy to forgive
See you, you see me,
We could be free,
I'll let you know
"Women in towels"
Take a look at the old suits,
Hanging around in the old school,
She's looking good with her hair down,
Feeling high in the fairground
See you, you see me
We could be free,
You've gotta live
So you could breathe
I wish you could just see yourself,
No shame, in pain (again)
"Women in towels"
"Life is work"
"It's not what you are, it's what you do"

No shame, in pain (again)

It's funny how i watch the day go by, I'm sittin watching tv, Talk Shows High, Theres banging on
the walls, My head aches, I'm drinking out the world that i hate.
I had a big car, new clothes, Everything, I had a watch engraved in Switzerland, Today i saw her
buying a magazine, It's time to get myself some Therapy.
How can i stop this, How can i stop this, How can i stop this disease?!?
She's got a new dress on
(Im in Cement)
Sits by her radio
(Im in Cement)
She's got those x-ray eyes
(Im in cement)
Don't know which way to go.
It's funny but i dream for yesterday, I'm blistered by the burns that life has made, I'm staring
out behind the windowshade, I see her face accross the street again.
Im in quick sand sinkin in again, I've got concrete shoes and i can't swim.
How can i stop this, How can i stop this, How can i stop this disease?!?
She's got a new dress on,
She's got a new dress on.
I don't know what to do, but i know that i must pull through, i can't keep watching you.
How can i stop this, How can i stop this, How can i stop this disease?!?
