10:15 on a Saturday night
And the tap drips under the strip light And I'm sitting in the kitchen sink And the tap drips Drip drip drip... Waiting for the telephone to ring And I'm wondering where she's been And I'm crying for yesterday And the tap drips Drip drip drip... It's always the same |

Midnight in the subway
She's on her way home She tries hard not to run But she feels she's not alone Echoes of footsteps follow close behind But she dare not turn around Turn around |

Come closer and see
See into the trees Find the girl While you can Come closer and see See into the dark Just follow your eyes Just follow your eyes I hear her voice Calling my name The sound is deep In the dark I hear her voice And start to run Into the trees Into the trees Into the trees Suddenly I stop But I know it's too late I'm lost in a forest All alone The girl was never there It's always the same I'm running towards nothing Again and again and again |

Sunk deep in the night
I sink in the night Standing alone Underneath the sky I feel the chill of ice On my face I watch the hours go by The hours go by You sleep Sleep in a safe bed Curled and protected Protected from sight Under a safe roof Deep in your house Unaware of the changes at night At night I hear the darkness breathe I sense the quiet despair Listen to the silence at night Someone has to be there Someone has to be there Someone must be there |

The innocence of sleeping children
Dressed in white and slowly dreaming Stops all time I slow my steps and start to blur So many years have filled my heart I never thought I'd say those words The further we go And older we grow The more we know The less we show The further we go And older we grow The more we know The less we show The very first time I saw your face I thought of a song And quickly changed the tune The very first time I touched your skin I thought of a story And rushed to reach the end too soon Oh, remember Oh, please don't change So the fall came Thirteen years A shiny ring and how I could forget your name The air no longer in my throat Another perfect lie is choked But it always feels the same So they close together Dressed in red and yellow Innocent forever Sleeping children in their blue soft rooms still dream The further we go And older we grow The more we know The less we show The further we go And older we grow The more we know The less we show |

Two pale figures ache in silence
Timeless in the quiet ground Side by side in age and sadness I watched and acted wordlessly As piece by piece you performed your story Moving through an unknown past Dancing at the funeral party Memories of children's dreams Lie lifeless Fading lifeless Hand in hand with fear and shadows Crying at the funeral party I heard a song and turned away As piece by piece you performed your story Noiselessly across the floor Dancing at the funeral party |

Creatures kissing in the rain
Shapeless in the dark again In the hanging garden please don't speak In the hanging garden no one sleeps In the hanging garden Catching haloes on the moon Gives my hands the shapes of angels In the heat of the night the animals scream In the heat of the night walking into a dream Fall fall fall fall into the walls Jump jump out of time Fall fall fall fall out of the sky Cover my face as the animals cry In the hanging garden Creatures kissing in the rain Shapeless in the dark again In a hanging garden change the past In a hanging garden wearing furs and masks Fall fall fall fall into the walls Jump jump out of time Fall fall fall fall out of the sky Cover my face as the animals die In the hanging garden As the animals die Cover my face as the animals die In the hanging garden |

Movement
No movement Just a falling bird Cold as it hits the bleeding ground He lived and died Catch sight Cover me with earth Draped in black Static White sound A day without substance A change of thought An atmosphere that rots with time Colours that flicker in water A short term effect Scream as she tries to push him over Helpless and sick With teeth of madness Jump, jump, dance and sing Sideways across the desert A charcoal face bites my hand Time is sweet Derange and disengage everything A day without substance A change of thought The atmosphere rots with time Colours that flicker in water A short term effect An echo and a stranger's hand And a short term effect |

Walk across the garden
In the footsteps of my shadow See the lights out No one's home In amongst the statues Stare at nothing in The garden moves Can you help me? Close my eyes And hold so tightly Scared of what the morning brings Waiting for tomorrow Never comes Deep inside The empty feeling All the night time leaves me Three imaginary boys Slipping through the door Hear my heart beats in the hallway Echoes Round and round Inside my head Drifting up the stairs I see the steps behind me Disappearing Can you help me? Close my eyes And hold so tightly Scared of what the morning brings Waiting for tomorrow Never comes Deep inside The empty feeling All the night time leaves me Three imaginary boys sing in my Sleep sweet child The moon will change your mind ... See the cracked reflection Standing still Before the bedroom mirror Over my shoulder But no one's there Whispers in the silence Pressing close behind me Pressing close behind Can you help me? Can you help me? |

Time slips away
And the light begins to fade Everything is quiet now Feeling is gone And the picture disappears Everything is cold now The dream had to end The wish never came true And the girl starts to sing Seventeen seconds A measure of life Seventeen seconds |

Catch me if I fall
I'm losing hold I can't just carry on this way And every time I turn away Lose another blind game The idea of perfection holds me Suddenly I see you change Everything at once the same But the mountain never moves Rape me like a child Christened in blood Painted like an unknown saint There's nothing left but hope Your voice is dead And old And always empty Trust in me through closing years Perfect moments wait If only we could stay Please say the right words Or cry like the stone white clown And stand lost forever in a happy crowd No one lifts their hands No one lifts their eyes Justified with empty words The party just gets better and better I went away alone With nothing left But faith |

A hand in my mouth
A life spills into the flowers We all look so perfect As we all fall down In an electric glare The old man cracks with age She found his last picture In the ashes of the fire An image of the queen Echoes round the sweating bed Sour yellow sounds inside my head In books and in films And in life and in heaven The sound of slaughter As your body turns But it's too late One more day like today and I'll kill you A desire for flesh and real blood And I'll watch you drown in the shower Push my life through your open eyes I must fight this sickness Find a cure I must fight this sickness |
