I'll sing myself to sleep
A song from the darkest hour Secrets I can't keep Inside of the day Swing from high to deep Extremes of sweet and sour Hope that god exists I hope I pray Drawn by the undertow My life is out of control I believe this wave will bear my weight So let it flow Chorus : Oh sit down ( X3 ) Sit down next to me Sit down, down, down, down, down In sympathy Now I'm relieved to hear That you've been to some far out places It's hard to carry on When you feel all alone Now I've swung back down again It's worse than it was before If I hadn't seen such rishes I could live with being poor Chorus Those who feel the breath of sadness Sit down next to me Those who find the're touched by madness Sit down next to me Those who find themselves ridiculous Sit down next to me In love, in fear, in hate, in tears... Down Down |

I wish I could create myself
A cool machine designed to help Not always hurting Just plug me in and do the rounds Impress your friends Save yourself pounds I'll not be wanting I wish that things could be that way But every dog must have its say The orchestra's tuning I understand your suffering I felt the same sting in my heart That's why I'm singing Drifting away as lovers do Heads you win and tails I lose Nothing to say much less to do Unhappy me unhappy you I know you want it all to end Transform a love into a friend Magicians can do Gut feelings come Gut feelings go Like rivers we have no control They just keep flowing Yeah, I wish I could create myself A cool machine or someone else A lot less knowing Drifting away as lovers do Heads you win And tails I lose Nothing to say Much less to do Unhappy me Unhappy you Love can heal And love can sting Heads you lose And tails I win Unhappy me Unhappy you Nothing to say And much less to do There's nothing to say I get in the way Unable to break obsession There's nothing to say I get in the way Still unable to break obsession |

Blow me away
Was that love you declared Only a word Love can mean anything Understand the world we’re living in Oceans apart What’s that view from your wave Beautiful craft Weather and change Understand the world we’re living in Love can mean anything God made love to me Soothed away my gravity Made me a pair of angel’s wings Clear vision and some magic things God is love to me Thank you for those things Understand the world we’re living in Love can mean anything Darling I’m open Unguarded Unbroken Now we’ve done our time We can drift away Like the heavy cloud With the weight of rain Understand the world we’re living in Love can mean anything Understand the world we’re living in Love can change anything |

You talk of knowing someone
When you know nothing of them. See only surface detail, You just don't understand. An answer to your question: There is no understanding. There's only different viewpoints From wherever you stand. Lazy, We won't understand. We're so lazy. I could just lie here thinking Of things I should be doing. I've got my head a-growing To the size of a hill. I cannot see you clearly. My viewpoints are disjointed. I'm getting shorter-sighted, Just like television. Lazy, We won't understand. We're so lazy. We won't work. We will not work At something we don't Feel familiar with. We won't work. We will not work. We're just so lazy. Make no effort of understanding. Frozen stiff by your aqua field. Recieving messages loud and clear, being... Lazy, We won't understand. We're so lazy. Lazy. Lazy. Lazy. |

Come over to the window, my little darling,
I'd like to try to read your palm. I'm standing on a ledge, and you fine spider's web is fastening my ankle to the bone So long, Marianne, it's time that we began to laugh and cry and cry and laugh about it all again. We met when we were almost young You made me forget so very much I forgot to pray for the angels and then the angels forgot to pray for us. So long, Marianne, it's time that we began to laugh and cry and cry and laugh about it all again. For now I need your hidden love. I'm cold as a new razor blade. You left when I told you I was curious, But I never said that I was brave. So long, Marianne, it's time that we began to laugh and cry and cry and laugh about it all again. About it all again. So long, Marianne, So long, Marianne, Marianne! Marianne! Now you're really such a pretty one. I see you've gone and changed your name again. And just when I climbed this whole mountainside, I see you in the distance, on the plains. So long, Marianne, it's time that we began to laugh and cry and cry and laugh about it all again. About it all again. About it all again. So long, Marianne. So long, Marianne. All the fights, With that big kitchen knife. All the lies, And the hate that you spat. All those long, long, furious nights. All those long, long, furious nights. All the tears that we shed, The excitement we had, And the unmade bed with that big kitchen knife, And the crimes we committed at night. Yeah, the crimes we committed at night, For a love we could never get right. For a love we could never get right. So long, Marianne! So long, Marianne! Marianne! |

You were created just for me.
You were created just to tease. You've never loved, you've just diseased. I put my faith in you, Spoiled all your schemes. You fooled us all, we're easily led. Your body folds into a head. Your spirit's stuck inside your head. I put my faith in you, turned you into God, You were once my friend, but never again, once my friend, but never again, once my friend, but never again. You showed me all the things I like. I'll turn defence into attack. I'll make you wish you're still on strike. I put my trust in you, turned you into God, You were once my friend, but never again, once my friend, but never again, once my friend, but never again. No never again. You were always running me down. I was always in the way. Sick of being understanding, Now I'm gonna make you pay! Now I'm gonna make you pay! How I'm gonna make you pay! |

This bed is on fire
With passionate love The neighbours complain about the noises above But she only comes when she's on top My therapist said not to see you no more She said you're like a disease without any cure She said I'm so obsessed that I'm becoming a bore, oh no Ah, you think you're so pretty Caught your hand inside the till Slammed your fingers in the door Fought with kitchen knives and skewers Dressed me up in women's clothes Messed around with gender roles Lined my eyes and call me pretty Moved out of the house, so you moved next door I locked you out, you cut a hole in the wall I found you sleeping next to me, I thought I was alone You're driving me crazy, when are you coming home Raid Raid |

Well I made me a list of lovers from A to infinity
But I couldn't remember the names of half of them I remembered bits of bodies and what they did for me And whether or not I got it up and made them hum Oh, confusion Confusion reigned over me Oh, confusion It bleeds and breathes and breeds all over me Well you used your mouths in ways I only dreamt of You walked the line between acrobat and nun You took me to the edge in public places Then took me home to share me with your mum Oh, confusion Confusion reigned over me Oh, confusion It bleeds and breathes and breeds all over me I lost my mind in a hotel room in Texas All I recall is an awful face and features And when you came you transformed into some creature Now I'm strange I'm so strange Oh, confusion Confusion reigned over me Oh, confusion Confusion reigned over me Oh, confusion It bleeds and breathes and breeds all over me |

I've been sitting on top of these rocks
Watching the waters rise Everyone that I have loved has gone floating by I've been praying for the king of the world to come rescue me From a land that's lost in dreams From a land that's lost in dreams Are you waiting for the heavens Are you waiting for the heavens to descend Waiting for the depend, the depend, the depend Are you waiting for the heavens Are you waiting for the heavens to descend Waiting for the depend, the depend, the depend I've been looking through microscopes to see how our life begins I've been training my lens on the stars to see where it ends But it's this living in between that's bringing me down To a land that's lost in dreams To a land that's lost in dreams To a land that's lost in dreams Are you waiting for the heavens Are you waiting for the heavens to descend Waiting for the depend, the depend, the depend Are you waiting for the heavens Are you waiting for the heavens to descend Waiting for the depend, the depend, the depend |

Whenever she's feeling empty
Whenever she's feeling insecure Whenever her face is frozen Unable to fake it anymore Her shadow is always with her Her shadow could always keep her small So frightened that he won't love her She builds up a wall Oh no, she knows where to hide in the dark Oh no, she's nowhere to hide in the dark She's a star She's a star She's been in disguise forever She's tried to disguise her stellar views Much brighter than all this static Now she's coming through Oh no, she knows where to hide in the dark Oh no, she's nowhere to hide in the dark She's a star She's a star Don't tell her to turn down Put on your shades if you can't see Don't tell her to turn down Turn up the flame She's a star She's a star It's a long road It's a great cause It's a long road Its a good call You got it You got it She's a Star |

Are you open for trade
Your salvation, for something, for some thrills Is a body of work for your inspection You can trace, trace my concern My concern I've been looking for truth At the cost of living I've been afraid Of what's before mine eyes Every answer found Begs another question The further you go, the less you know The less I know I can feel your face Gonna make it mine I can be the man I see in your eyes Can you take my weight Are we both too small Know each other well We've met before Will we grow together Will it be a lie If it lasts forever, hope I'm the first to die Will you marry me, Can we meet the cost Is the power of love worth the pain of loss Can you pay the bill, will you keep the change Are you here for the party, or are you here for the pain I can feel your face Gonna make it mine I can be the man I see in your eyes Will we grow together Will it be a lie If it lasts forever, hope I'm the first to die Hope I'm the first to die |

I'm so alone tonight
My bed feels larger than when I was small Lost in memories, lost in all the sheets and old pillows So alone tonight, miss you more than I will let you know Miss the outline of your back, miss you breathing down my neck All out to get you, once again They're all out to get you, once again Insecure, what you gonna do Feel so small, they could step on you Called you up, answer machine, when the human touch Is what I need, what I need, what I need, what I need.. what I need is you I need you Looked in the mirror, I don't know who I am any more The face is familiar, but the eyes, the eyes give it all away They're all out to get you, once again, they're all out to get you Here they come again.... Insecure, what you gonna do Feel so small, they could step on you Called you up, answer machine, when the human touch Is what I need, what I need, what I need What I need, what I need, what I need is you... (What I need)... If you let me breathe, if you let me breathe They're all out to get you, once again, they're all out to get you To get you, once again |

What a life, a trick of light
Then everything returns to the sea You can have whatever you want But are you disciplined enough to be free? Turning love into a chore Promises come cheap, dear reader Another page, another door Follow, follow me I know what I'm here for Hanging on through late December I know what I'm here for Follow, follow me Follow me Moving on, I don't belong My life turned into a mall Every line is in the song Follow me out of the fall What an actor, what a show Just going through some holy motions The band is sharp, but the singer's slow Everything must go I know what I'm here for Hanging on through late December I know what I'm here for Follow, follow me Follow me Follow me (x8) Souvenirs, polygraph tests Photographs fresh from the wreck What a poster saint he'll make In one take, one take I know what I'm here for Hanging on through late December I know what I'm here for Follow, follow me Follow me Follow me (x8) |

Where is the love Where is the love Where is the love That everyone is talking of Where is the love Where is the love That everyone is dreaming of Come to bed Come to bed Come to bed I cannot sleep in all this heat Come to bed Come to bed This terror’s all within my head Don’t be deceived, no land in sight We’re all adrift in this dark night We float on seas of disbelief While singing songs of pain relief Shake my body - release my soul Punish my senses - lose control This body’s young but my spirit’s old Scatter my ashes and let these feelings grow Where is the love Where is the love Where is the love That everyone is talking of Where is the love Where is the love That everyone is dreaming of Don’t be deceived, no land in sight We’re all adrift in this dark night We float on seas of disbelief While singing songs of pain relief Shake my body - release my soul Punish my senses - lose control This body’s young but my spirit’s old Scatter my ashes and let these feelings grow Shake my body - release my soul Punish my senses - lose control |

Heart of gold heart of gold heart of gold
One body in my mother's belly Chinese dolls, box in boxes How do you sail the ship from the bottle? How do you sail the ship from the bottle? Heart of gold heart of gold heart of gold Gold, gold mother, gold, gold, gold mother I can see the head now Between her legs now Purple headed alien Water logged old man In the blood silence In the blood silence Silence, silence Cry for me mother cry for me mother Crimean mother cry me another My feet and hands won't work My feet and hands won't work In my baby's body My brand new baby's body I'll suck my fingers red I'll suck my fingers red In my baby's body My brand new baby's body I can see the head now Between her legs now Purple headed alien Water logged old man In the blood silence In the blood silence Silence Silence Silence Shut up In the bright lights and harsh sounds, there's a man In green ceremonial robes and mask, dipping a straw through your nose Mouthwash of meconium lungs full of meconium Heart full of meconium Meconium Meconium Chinese dolls in boxes Chinese dolls in boxes I'll go out the same way I came in Chinese dolls in boxes And everything you touch And everything you love And everything you touch Turns to gold As precious as As rich as As dear as As strong as As hard as Gold Mother Past the boudaries of all pain You journey to the edge of death in search of a child Gold mother there's only one Gold mother and she's mine She's all mine Shut up let's hear it Shut up |
